Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 352 Restarting the Business Plan
With the return of gakki, some of Yuan Qingshan's plans can continue to be launched.

First, the agency took advantage of the offseason to sign a pre-agreed 2015 rookie, followed by Murray and Brogdon.

In this way, Yuan Qingshan's brokerage company has point guard Murray, shooting guard Brogdon, small forward Winslow, small forward Nick Young, small forward Lyles, shooting guard Devin Booker, point guard Russell, power forward Towns and center Whiteside These young stars.

After arranging them, they can almost form a team, and after a year of running-in, they may even reach the conference finals.

Then, Gakki came forward to contact several big sports brands, planning to sell the endorsement contracts of these stars in a package.

All the major manufacturers moved upon hearing the news, and everyone wanted to win this "star gift package". The best rookie Yuan Qingshan, the rookie team Downs, and Devin Booker are all potential rookies who are in the limelight.

Adidas, Nike, and Under Armor contacted Gakki one after another, actively seeking opportunities for cooperation.

安德玛给元青山提供的合同是5年2000万，唐斯5年3000万，德文布克5年1000万，其他人基本上都是一年100万。

Speaking of which, the price is reasonable. After all, most of these players have only played for one year, and the future is highly variable, and Under Armor is no better than the other two. This is the greatest sincerity they can show.

The contract was sent by Gakki, Yuan Qingshan refused without even thinking about it.

Let’s not talk about whether the endorsement fee is reasonable. Just look at the brand effect of Under Armor. It is not as good as the other two. They signed Curry last year when Nike made a mistake. Apart from that, there are no other stars. It is difficult to set up a training camp.

In fact, it doesn't matter how much the endorsement fee is, what Yuan Qingshan needs more is to use the brand to promote himself and his team.

阿迪把元青山的合同提升到5年3000万，唐斯5年4000万，德文布克5年2000万。

The management of Adidas thought that the price tag was a sure win, and they all began to prepare for the press conference.

Unexpectedly, Yuan Qingshan refused again cleanly.

The reason is simple: 5 years is too long. According to Yuan Qingshan's own plan, he will definitely win the championship in the next 1 to 2 years. At that time, the price will not be the same. You must know that James signed a contract with Nike for 10 billion US dollars.

Adi didn't plan to fail at all, and they didn't know how much they should raise after doing this.

After Nike learned of this situation, it was sensible to propose that they want to sign a 2-year 1600 million contract with Yuan Qingshan, Downs 2 million in 2000 years, Devin Booker, like Whiteside, both 2 million in 1000 years, and others 2 million in 500 years.

Not only has the price tag increased, but more importantly, there are additional terms: if Yuan Qingshan can win the championship within two years, Nike will restart negotiations and sign a lifetime contract.

This is what Yuan Qingshan wants, he is very satisfied with Nike.

So Yuan Qingshan convened a small meeting to solicit everyone's opinions. Naturally, several members of the Lakers had no objection. What was rare was that several people from other teams also agreed. All these matters were subject to Yuan Qingshan's arrangements.

After finalizing the details of the contract, Yuan Qingshan took these newly promoted millionaires to the Maldives for a round of fun. They happened to be photographed by reporters, and the next day they appeared in Basketball Weekly. The media called these people headed by Yuan Qingshan a new force in the league.

In early September, the Lakers' training camp began.

On the media day, Yuan Qingshan was interviewed by the Los Angeles media. The local media, of course, is a staunch supporter of the team. The reporter picked up the microphone and asked Yuan Qingshan where the Lakers have been strengthened in the summer and where they are expected to go next season.

"If nothing else, the championship."

Yuan Qingshan replied with a smile, all the reporters in the audience laughed, only Downs and Whiteside who were on the stage looked serious, and did not take it as a joke.

Yuan Qingshan had been discussing this topic with them for two days and two nights, and the three of them made up their minds that they must hit the championship this season.

Then another reporter asked Yuan Qingshan if the Lakers' style of play would change next season.

Yuan Qingshan replied that the players had not formally communicated with coach Luke Wharton, and they knew nothing about the coach's arrangements.

However, since there have been major changes in the starting lineup and two new players have been added, the style of play must be different from last season. It is estimated that next season he will focus on organizing offenses instead of grabbing points.

The reporter asked Yuan Qingshan how he commented on Barnes and Murray.

Yuan Qingshan first praised Barnes. As for Murray, Yuan Qingshan pointed out his technical characteristics, advantages and disadvantages. The final conclusion is that Murray will definitely be the upstart at the second position in the league. Everyone votes for him as the best rookie next year.

The reporter then turned his attention to Whiteside, because he just signed a maximum salary contract with the Lakers.

The reporter asked him if there would be any changes next season. Whiteside looked at Yuan Qingshan and said, "I will do whatever Qingshan needs me to do."

The original Third Young Master of the Lakers, Yuan Qingshan's best friend, really lived up to his reputation.

Then it was Downs' turn. As soon as he spoke, the rhythm of the press conference was messed up.

This guy joked with reporters throughout the whole process, and with a few words, everyone was amused.

The press conference on the morning of the media day ended with laughter and laughter. The Lakers have been greatly strengthened. The media and fans in Los Angeles are all full of hope.

In the afternoon, it was the team's first training session. Luke Wharton showed his real body. He was wearing a set of the most basic training uniforms for the Lakers.

When he came to the players, Walton picked up the ball and first looked at the players one by one.

Wharton stayed in front of Yuan Qingshan the longest, because he knew that No. 16 was the new boss of the Lakers. If he wanted to lead the team further, he had to start with this kid.

On the afternoon of the first day, Walton did not arrange a training program, but let the players sit on the floor and listen to him talk about the history of the Lakers and his Lakers career.

Walton mainly wants to tell everyone how brilliant the Lakers were, and how lucky they are to appear on the team's roster.

This is the advantage of a strong team. As long as you read the glorious history of the team, you will naturally feel a sense of pride.

Wharton didn't prepare a manuscript, so he just sat on the floor and talked for three hours. Yuan Qingshan admired him so much in his heart. With this eloquence, what kind of coach should he be? Go directly to TNT as a commentator. O'Neill's salary must be higher than Wharton's.

At 4 p.m., Walton announced the disbandment of the team, and then left Murray alone. He wanted to find out the details of the rookie as soon as possible, and then consider whether he should be the starting second position.

If the result is unsatisfactory, even if it is the magician's face, Wharton will not give it to him. He will just put Murray on the bench and be a substitute for a season first.

As a result, when Walton and Murray left the arena together at 5:[-] p.m., he could already confirm that Murray was definitely qualified for the starting job.
