From South China Tiger to NBA King

Chapter 66 $7 million in 9100 years?reject.

After the game with the Blazers ended, Jianghu also opened the system panel and received the system rewards.

"Task requirements: Score 45 points in any summer league game."

"Congratulations on successfully completing the task, scoring 45 points in any match in the summer league, and obtaining an intermediate attribute experience card x 3."

After receiving the task reward from the system, Jianghu clicked on his attribute panel again.

"Host: Jianghu."

"Birthdate: September 1998, 9."

"Height 206CM, wingspan 221CM, weight 103KG."

"Attribute value: Finishing: 75 breakthrough layups, 76 breakthrough dunks, 81 completions at the basket."

"Shooting: 87 short shots, 83 mid-range shots, and 90 three-pointers."

"Ball Handling: 83 Passing Accuracy, 88 Dribbling."

"Defense: 83 lateral speed, 75 steals, 87 blocks, 76 rebounds."

"Physique: Speed ​​93, Strength 93, Bounce 85, Stamina 87."

"Overall rating: 90 (borderline All-Star level)."

From the end of the CBA Finals in mid-April to the current mid-July, Jianghu’s weight has increased by 4KG during this period. While Jianghu gained 7KG in weight, his body fat rate remained at around 5%. There is no doubt that he Basically what you gain is muscle.

Therefore, for a long time to come, Jianghu will no longer add attribute experience points to strength, but let this body adapt to the current state first, and then add strength after gaining weight in the later stage.

Jianghu opened the exchange shop for 3 intermediate attribute experience cards, and exchanged them for 27 primary attribute experience cards.

With 27 cards, Jianghu first increased the near shot and mid shot to 90, using up 10 primary cards, and then he increased the traverse speed to 90, using up 7 primary cards again.

Jianghu discovered that when his traversing speed increased, his stealing ability increased to 79 points at the same time.

For the remaining 10 points, Jianghu all clicked the breakthrough layup, and the breakthrough layup also reached 85 points. Affected by the breakthrough layup, Jianghu's basket finish was automatically raised to 82 points.

In this way, the attributes of Jianghu become:
"Attribute value: Finishing: 85 breakthrough layups, 76 breakthrough dunks, 82 completions at the basket."

"Shooting: 90 short shots, 90 mid-range shots, and 90 three-pointers."

"Ball Handling: 83 Passing Accuracy, 88 Dribbling."

"Defense: 90 lateral speed, 79 steals, 87 blocks, 76 rebounds."

"Physique: Speed ​​93, Strength 93, Bounce 85, Stamina 87."

"Overall rating: 90 (borderline All-Star level)."

Although the comprehensive evaluation has not changed, Jianghu can clearly feel that his strength has been strengthened again compared to the summer league, and he believes that he will be able to break through to 91 points in the near future.

..............................

Time passed quickly, and July passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past July, Jianghu completed some work outside of basketball.

On July 7, Jianghu signed a 18-year, 4 million dollar endorsement agreement with Armani, becoming Armani's global image spokesperson.

On July 7, Jianghu signed a contract with Kobe Bryant's BodyArmor Beverage, 23% of the shares plus 2.5 million US dollars, a 200-year endorsement contract.

On July 7, Jianghu became the Asia-Pacific spokesperson of Audi for 27 years and 5 million US dollars.

Schwartz expressed little understanding of Jianghu's signing of two of these three contracts.

The first is the clothing contract: a clothing company in China called Taiping Bird offered Jianghu a seven-year clothing endorsement contract of RMB 7 million, but Jianghu rejected it.

Schwartz can understand the rejection of this contract. After all, the annual difference with Armani is only hundreds of thousands of dollars, and Armani's brand image is a bit higher. Schwartz accepted this contract after struggling for a while.

But Schwartz did not understand Jianghu's beverage contract signing.

Similarly, the domestic Wahaha beverage company is also very optimistic about Jianghu's development potential, believing that he can become the next Yao Ming, and even surpass Yao Ming.

So they offered Jianghu a seven-year endorsement contract worth 7 million yuan, which is about 4.9 million US dollars.

But Jianghu turned it down without even thinking about it, and then signed a contract with Kobe's BodyArmor? ?

Schwartz wondered if there was something wrong with Jiang Hu's brains, and he didn't want more money, but instead signed such a well-known company.

Schwartz thought that Jianghu chose this company because of his admiration for Kobe and his idol aura.

But he didn't know that Jianghu's two contracts were the real meaningful signings.

In terms of clothing, Jianghu has not yet had the opportunity to take over the endorsement contracts of high-end brands, and such brands generally rarely invite athletes to endorse them.

But it won't be so after four years. Jianghu believes that in terms of his ability, four years is enough for him to become the top superstar in this league.

At that time, with his appearance, he may have the opportunity to take over the endorsement of this high-end luxury brand. Even if he doesn't, he can negotiate with other companies for longer contracts with higher amounts.

In terms of beverages, the reason why Jianghu accepted the $200 million contract was mainly because they were interested in the shares of BodyArmor Beverage Company.

BodyArmor beverage company, regardless of its current valuation of the entire brand is only 12 billion US dollars, and its current 2.5% stake is only worth 3000 million US dollars.

However, in the next three years, its sales in North America will usher in a substantial increase, and it will be acquired by Coca-Cola at a valuation of US$2021 billion at the end of 81.

At that time, Jianghu's signing will bring him huge benefits.

In addition, besides clothing, beverages and cars, he still has not signed other commercial contracts.

In terms of sneakers, Nike and Adidas have offered Jianghu 7-year contracts worth 8400 million US dollars and 7 years 9100 yuan respectively.

Schwartz calls Jianghu almost every two days to talk with Jianghu, hoping that Jianghu will not be too ambitious, and negotiate with the two companies to sign this most important contract first.

Schwartz prepared a mouthful of rhetoric every time, but was eventually evaded by Jianghu.

Schwartz: "Jiang, this contract is already at LeBron's level, sign him."

Jianghu: "LeBron? If you let LeBron debut in this era, his contract will cost at least another $2000 million."

Schwartz: "With such a good contract, what are you not satisfied with? It's not good to be down-to-earth, step by step, why take the risk and wait for a bigger contract?"

Jianghu: "You have to trust my judgment, the risk in your eyes does not exist here at all."

Schwartz: "Brother, I beg you, sign it. They call me every day. He said this is their greatest sincerity."

Jianghu: "Sincerity? A businessman looks at profits, and this is a contract that benefits others and harms me. Please make it clear that you are my agent, and your duty is to fight for my interests, not to lower the price for me. "

Sometimes when he can't take it anymore, Jianghu will tell him directly: "If you still want to continue to cooperate, then listen to me."

Every time Schwartz heard this sentence, he could only end the call in a lack of interest.

He felt that Jiang Hu was as stubborn as a donkey, the kind that couldn't be pulled back by nine cows.

But what Schwartz didn't know was that the reason why Jianghu refused to sign the sneaker contract was because he knew that the prices given by the two companies were not enough.

The reason why the two companies give an annual salary of 1200 million to 1400 million US dollars is based on the fact that Jianghu is a champion from China. They want to use this money to increase their influence in China and seize their market share in China. .

1200 million US dollars is not worth mentioning in front of the entire Chinese market. Considering their size, they can definitely charge a higher price.

And the reason why Jianghu dared to hang them was because he had confidence in his own strength...

"China's NBA champion" and "average 20+ Chinese NBA champion" or even "19-year-old average 25+ Chinese champion" are not the same concept at all, and the gap in commercial value is even more different.

One or two months after the start of the rookie season, or after the end of the rookie season, after Jianghu has performed well, it is the most suitable time for Jianghu to start negotiations with sneaker companies.

Don't ask why Jianghu is so confident, just ask.

As for now?You'll never try to convince them to give you a $[-] million contract.

The total value of the three endorsement contracts signed by Jianghu is 6800 million US dollars.

After the contract was signed, he asked the sponsor to pay half of the amount in advance, which was about 3400 million US dollars.

Boston, where Jianghu is located, belongs to the state of Massachusetts. The comprehensive tax rate of this state is about 30%, which includes state income tax, local income tax and federal income tax. Around $15 million.

With 2000 million US dollars in hand, the first thing Jianghu did was to buy a house.

No matter where the Chinese people go, they must have their own land to live in. If they don't have one, they will lack a sense of security.

This is also the main reason for the inflated housing prices in China.

Developers' constant price hikes make people feel that the supply of housing is tight, so some people keep scrambling for it, and finally the higher the scrambling, the higher the scrambling.

The real estate market in the United States is different. They have passed the peak period of real estate price increases, and the prices of most houses have stabilized.

Therefore, in terms of the location to buy a house, Jianghu chose Weston, an old wealthy district in Boston.

Weston is a small town in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, about 17 miles (27 kilometers) from downtown Boston and 13 miles from the North Shore Garden, home of the Boston Celtics.

The reason Jianghu bought the house here is naturally because there are more whites and Asians and fewer blacks here.

The world discriminates against blacks, especially the blacks in slums. Most of them carry guns and drugs, and they are emotionally unstable. Living in a place with many blacks will make the world feel insecure.

The population composition of Weston Township is about 82.9% white, 11.6% Asian, and the remaining 5.5% is black and other populations.

The population of this town is small, with a total population of only 1. The houses in this area are mostly manor-style mansions with deep houses and large courtyards, covering a large area, most of which are more than 1 acre, and the housing density is low.

More than 90% of blacks can't afford such a house, and those who can afford it are elite blacks like Jianghu's teammate Jaylen Brown, who generally do not pose danger to others.

Jianghu spent US$576 million to buy a manor-style mansion in Weston, with 5 bedrooms and 7.5 bathrooms, with an indoor area of ​​1.3 square feet and an area of ​​7.33 acres.

The house is surrounded by large tracts of olive trees and camphor trees, the air is fresh and the environment is elegant.

In addition, there is a large swimming pool, a tennis court and two basketball courts, one indoor and one outdoor complement each other.

There is a billiard hall and a movie theater indoors. Jianghu turned one of the relatively small bedrooms into a game hall, equipped with five most advanced host computers and various game equipment in the world.

Such a large house is impossible without a servant to take care of it. Changing the water in the swimming pool, pruning the garden, and cleaning the ground are impossible for Jiang Hu to do by himself. He needs to spend his time practicing his skills and studying tactics.

So he hired two Filipino servants. In order to keep the house clean and tidy, Jianghu paid them a salary of about 6000 US dollars a month.

He didn't spend money on the car, and Audi gave him an A7. This model is already very good, with fast speed and high configuration, so there is no need to spend money to buy a better model.

Although he already knows how to drive, he has not yet taken the test for a U.S. driver's license. In the next period of time, he still needs to find time to get his driver's license.

After buying the house, Jiang Hu only has about 1400 million US dollars left in his hands.

He kept $20 as a sideline and emergency.

He then spent $1000 million investing in BitTorrent.

The starting price of Jianghu’s BT coins is 2900 US dollars. Around December this year, Jianghu will sell all BT coins at the craziest time. If the situation does not go wrong, he will probably turn the money into approximately $12 million.

He remitted all the remaining money back to his domestic account. Before he came out, he was 18 years old and opened an A-share account. He used all the 400 million U.S. dollars to buy the big A semiconductor company Zhaoyi Innovation. stock.

The starting price of Zhaoyi Innovation is 26 yuan. Jianghu remembers that this stock also had a good market before the end of the year, and he will sell it all at the highest point.

He's going to be completely short until next June, or even sell the entirety of BodyArmor Beverages if it's doing well.

He will also sign some endorsements, including sneaker endorsements, which will be finalized before the end of the season. He will sign other messy endorsements that are not illegal anyway.

Of course, all of these are only temporary. By June next year, he will sell all his assets, embrace the 25-30 yuan Ningde era and some semiconductor stocks, and take the express train of the domestic stock market.

In 2021, when the Ningde era reaches the highest point of 699, he will sell all Ningde era stocks, get off the car and leave...

If all goes according to plan, he will be a billionaire by the end of 2021...

Ten years later, maybe buying an NBA team and being a trader by yourself is also a good option...

Of course, all of this is just the preliminary thoughts of Jianghu, and the essence of the problem will eventually return to basketball.

He only knows one thing, and that's: play well, be a superstar, and he'll have it all.

Without a good performance, he will fall into the abyss, and everyone who praises him will step on him in the end, and the higher the praise, the harder the step.

Even including the person who single-handedly made him the number one scholar.
