I have a data panel in basketball

Chapter 82 See you in the NBA

Arizona State University got busy from the early morning on the second day.

To be precise, it started yesterday when it was confirmed that they would win the championship.

All kinds of exhibition stands and various decorations that can only be seen during school celebrations spread all over the school in just one night.

Of course, today is not a school day.

However, in terms of importance, it is comparable to the school anniversary, and it is comparable to the centennial anniversary.

Because Arizona State University became another school team that won the ncaa basketball national championship yesterday, and such a school team does not even have 50 teams in the history of ncaa.

Arizona State University suddenly became one of the 50 most successful universities in NCAA history... The importance of this is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary school celebrations.

At about 8:[-] in the morning, the campus gate of Arizona State University was the same as last time, becoming "gongs, drums, and firecrackers blared."

Rodman, the president of Arizona State University, stood at the front of the line with a red face, looking at his watch from time to time, chanting words, and his excitement was beyond words.

Five minutes ago, he had just talked to Sandek on the phone.

They're coming back soon!
"Come, come, come!"

Finally, amidst his assistant's screams like killing a pig, the bus carrying the Sun Devils back came into his field of vision.

"Hurry up!"

As soon as the assistant got excited, Rodman also waved back excitedly, signaling to the band waiting behind to hurry up and start singing the school song.

The school song sounded, waking up the few Sun Devil players who were still asleep in the bus.

"It's really lively!"

Lin Ri was sitting by the car window, and he had already noticed that a large number of people were already crowded at the school gate.

At this moment, he deeply felt that he had returned with glory.

"Let's go, everyone, go and feel the shouts from the teachers and students of the whole school for you after the hard work!"

While everyone was looking out the window, the bus officially stopped, Sandek got up and waved vigorously, and all the Sun Devils followed him and walked towards the bus.

"Thank you, everyone!"

"Hard work, you guys are amazing!"

"The sun, I finally saw you with my own eyes, our school's hero! Your performance in the finals was unbelievable!"

Rodman went to wait at the door of the bus as soon as the bus stopped. When the players of the Sun Devils got off one by one, he also shook hands, smiled, and said some warm words.Then he flattered Lin Riyi.

Lin Ri read the entire testimonial after winning the MOP.

When he heard Lin Ri say those words, he was really surprised and happy!

What is this?

This is recruiting them to Arizona State University!
How many students are there who are so considerate of the school and go out to inquire?

So he decided to respond to Lin Ri and let Lin Ri know that the school accepted his love!For this reason, he asked a few school directors to study it, and finally quickly determined one, two or three gifts to give back to Lin Ri.

The school-wide carnival right now is not counted in the feedback to Lin Ri.

"Come on, the sun, come with me!"

Once Rodman chatted with Lin Ri, he didn't plan to let him go. He didn't care about other things, and led Lin Ri to the arena directly.

The celebration party was put there.

It is only there that more than 1 students in the school can barely realize the carnival together.

The head of a school personally leads the way.

And also the president of the university.

Lin Ri was taken aback by Rodman's enthusiasm. He really didn't know that the pretending words he said at the time made Rodman have so many thoughts. He was just pretending in that environment.

However, if Lin Ri knew that Rodman would like him so much by saying those words, then he would definitely be glad that he said those words at the time.

Just look at Michael Jordan, it's not a bad thing to have a good relationship with your school!

The network is accumulated like this...

"Wow, is it so grand?"

"Oh my God!"

"OMG, the school seems to have spent a lot of money this time!"

Afterwards, everyone entered the arena and was able to arrange the arena into a party within a day. The school naturally used the teachers and students of the whole school, but even the teachers and students of the whole school had different divisions of labor, so many people did not see the final party arrangement. Seeing the "finished product" now, many people exclaimed.

Many seniors have not seen such a battle since entering the school.

Everyone in the Sun Devil team was also frightened by the scale of the party. The next moment, they could feel even more how important the championship they brought back to the school was!

It is conceivable that the school can spend so much money...

We are heroes!
This made several guys from the Sun Devils once again firmly believe in this idea.

Rodman then stood on the stage of the party, made a simple speech through the microphone above, and then announced the gifts prepared by Lin Day one by one.

The first gift will be a retirement ceremony for Lin Ri and James Harden on the first day of school next year.

This will be the first time Arizona State has retired a player's jersey, an honor that Byron Scott did not receive.

The second gift is that the arena of Arizona State University will be officially renamed "the sun" in the near future!
This news caused an uproar among the teachers and students in the whole school.

They can think of the first gift, but they really didn't expect the second gift.

Lin Ri was also taken aback.

He didn't expect to get such an honor.

He glanced at James Harden unconsciously, and he felt that he and James Harden should get this honor together.

Sandek, who was standing next to him, noticed his eyes and said to him: "James already knew about it, and he agreed with the school's idea. He also told me... It is true that you performed better in the finals. Without you, we would definitely not win this championship!"

"Besides, your uncle is our sponsor and gave us a lot of money. This aspect is also considered by the school. Therefore, in the end, the school decided to name the arena after you alone."

Ah ~
Listening to Sandek's explanation, Lin Ri nodded slightly, feeling relieved.

However, James... would actually say that.

Lin Ri turned his head and glanced at James Harden again. James Harden noticed his gaze and extended his hands to applaud gently, obviously congratulating Lin Ri for receiving this honor.

No wonder you are not standing next to me today.

This is what Lin Ri thought.

Rodman's speech did not end: "In addition, we will order two statues for the sun and James Harden in front of the arena. This is a thank you for their contributions to Arizona Sun State University!"

Customized statues for Lin Ri and James Harden, which is also one of the gifts prepared by Rodman.

Of course, there was no such gift in the first place.

Mainly to make up for James Harden, who played an extra year for the school in the NCAA, this credit must be remembered.

After these three points were finished, Rodman didn't say anything more, but asked Lin Ri and James Harden to speak on stage in turn.

When the two of them entered the stage, the movement of the group of people in the audience was obviously much louder than when Rodman was speaking before, especially before Lin Ri spoke, there was the sound of "the sun" for more than 5 minutes at the scene, and the scene was once out of control.

Rodman looked at the students who were crazy about the sun, and couldn't help but whispered in his heart: Our Arizona State University has finally produced a truly remarkable person!

James Harden didn't say anything, he is not a person who relies on words, he always relies on actions.

Lin Ri didn't say much, just thanked the school briefly, said some official scene words, and then the party officially started.

Rodman didn't stay here long, leaving as soon as the party started.

As the principal, it is naturally impossible to "shake hands" on the dance floor with the students, that would be too indecent.

After he left, the leaders of the school also left directly. Gradually, this place completely became a "carnival place".

The players of the Sun Devils are naturally the protagonists tonight, and even those water cooler players who have basically never been on the court, because they once gave Lin Ri a towel and Gatorade on the sidelines of the game, they also surrounded them with a few girls' shoes.

Not to mention Lin Ri as the protagonist.

As soon as the principal and the group of leaders left, he was immediately followed by many female classmates, who frantically rushed towards him.

Fortunately, this is the arena, where Lin Ri played for a season. He is very familiar with this place. Once the principal left, Lin Ri also took a shortcut and left.

The group of female students failed to catch him, and stamped their feet in frustration.

But soon, they went to other goals.

There is no way, the biggest fish is gone, so I can only pick other fish.

No matter how small a fish is, it’s still a fish, and I’m afraid you won’t be able to catch it.

When Lin Ri came out, he was ready to call Chris.

It’s true that he ran out. He has to see if Chris’s changes have met his expectations. After all, it will be mid-April soon. As soon as the results of the draft lottery come out in early May, the trial training will officially begin. He has to quickly get an agent.

"Hey, the sun!"

However, before he got through the phone call, Britney suddenly ran out from nowhere and yelled at him.

Lin Ri stepped forward, but found that Britney was alone, and asked, "Where's Chris?"

"He said he wanted to show you his changes, so let me pick you up!"

"Oh~ so mysterious?" Lin Ri was taken aback by these words, and then laughed, he couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation, "Then let's go! Go and see!"

Britney nodded, and then led him to a tea restaurant in the school, entered the door, went up to the second floor, and when he reached the first private room, Britney stopped moving and motioned for Lin Ri to open the door.

"Why are you so mysterious?" Lin Ri obediently followed suit, dumbfounded.

But when he pushed the door open, he was really stunned for a moment.

It wasn't just Chris alone, there were four other people in straight suits, including Chris.

The guy even made a haircut on purpose.

In front of this guy's desk was a thick document.

Seeing Lin Ri coming in, Chris also changed his usual hippie smile, stretched out his hand towards him seriously, and said, "The sun, sit down, I'm glad you can come, I know there are many people out there robbing you, trust me, I won't let you down!"

"Okay." Lin Ri didn't interrupt him, touched his hand, then sat opposite him and said, "Then let's start, tell me about your advantages."

"Okay, then let me introduce my team to you first!" Chris began to introduce, the first person from his left: "This is Ike Roberts, who was in charge of signing the contracts of 3 NBA stars and has been in the agent industry for more than 10 years."

"Who is this……"

"..."

Chris introduced the four people around him one by one.

Listening to the experience of these guys, Lin Ri nodded secretly from time to time. They are all "old men" with good abilities and have worked in this industry for many years.

After the introduction, Chris pushed the document in front of him to Lin Ri: "Here is their detailed resume introduction..."

Lin Ri opened the pages and read them several times, and found that these resumes had richer experiences than those introduced by Chris. At the same time, he also saw the names of several familiar retired NBA stars.

Such four people plus Chris, based on Lin Ri's summary of their resumes, they can be regarded as at least a second-rate team in the industry. This comparison is made after he searched the names of dozens of business cards and read their introductions.

Of course, if you remove Chris, this can even be called a first-class team!

This has naturally met Lin Ri's minimum requirements, so he slowly closed the resumes of these guys, and then stretched out his hand under Chris' uneasy expression: "Happy cooperation, big manager Chris!"

call!
Hearing this, Chris seemed to be relieved of his burden instantly, but just as he was about to scream, he suddenly realized something, regained control of his emotions, and extended his hand to hold Lin Ri's hand: "Happy cooperation!"

Then the two officially signed a three-year brokerage contract.

What Lin Ri gave Chris was a 3% commission for the team contract and a 15% commission for the commercial contract.

For those top agents, this is definitely an "unequal" contract that they are unwilling to sign.

But Chris signed the contract without a second thought.

"Don't worry! Although the proportion of the commission is a little less, you can probably earn the money to support the team in a year, and you can make a fortune yourself." Chris didn't bargain with Lin Ri at all, and Lin Ri also drew a big cake for him.

However, this is definitely a big cake that Zhang can achieve...

From Lin Ri's point of view, Chris's team probably needs to spend about 6 million in total annual salary.

Based on Lin Ri's own estimate of his own business value, if his agent earns less than 6 million yuan a year, then he will look down on himself and the domestic market too much.

Afterwards, Lin Ri officially gave Chris and his team all the interviews and other information that he had reserved with him. From yesterday to today, he received at least [-] interview appointment text messages on his mobile phone, not to mention phone calls. ESPN, Sports Illustrated, etc., all wanted to reserve the right to shoot the cover of his first magazine after winning the championship.

Lin Ritou was almost blown away by these calls.

Now just throw it all to Chris, let him make reasonable arrangements.

Then Lin Ri went straight back to the dormitory to sleep.

It looks like "the bustling outside has nothing to do with me, I just want a small bed"...

This sleep went straight to more than 4 o'clock in the evening.

He glanced at some of the texts Chris had sent him, and he had a Sports Illustrated cover shoot scheduled for the day after tomorrow, so tomorrow they had to leave school and go to the shoot.

And judging from Chris's tone, he probably won't come back after leaving school for a short time this time.

so fast?

Thinking of leaving tomorrow, Lin Ri was really reluctant.

Everyone has a special feeling for the place where they made their fortune.

The same is true for Lin Ri. Arizona State University is his starting point. He walked out of this dormitory and became "the sun" known throughout the United States!
Look, there is nothing to do!

Lin Ri thought about it for a long time, and decided to think about whether there was something he hadn't done, and he wouldn't come back later. If he remembered, it would be troublesome, so he should do it now while he has time.

Not to mention, when Lin Ri flipped through his contacts, he really remembered that he had something to do—he still owed Lisa a meal.

It happened to be meal time, so Lin Ri immediately contacted Lisa and said that he would invite her to dinner.

Lisa who received the call was stunned. Of course she remembered the meal, but she thought Lin Ri had forgotten it, so she was embarrassed to mention it.

Unexpectedly, Lin Ri still remembered!
"Thank you, Senior Sister Lisa." At the dinner table, Lin Ri thanked Lisa again for guiding him, and then provided some fan service, and the two separated directly.

On the way back to school, Lin Ri suddenly wanted to take a good look at Arizona State University. He had never been here for a few months.

However, when he entered the school gate, the screams of people coming and going made him give up this idea, and he temporarily decided to go to the Arizona State Arena, which will be renamed "the sun".

"James?"

What he didn't expect was that James Harden was there.

He yelled, and then sat next to James Harden.

The two sat side by side for a while, and Lin Ri could feel that James Harden was not in a high mood, so he didn't speak.

But soon, James Harden still spoke: "When are you leaving, the sun?"

"tomorrow."

"Tomorrow, so soon?"

"Well, I have an interview, so I have to go there soon." Lin Ri didn't hide it either.

"Oh." James Harden nodded slightly when he heard this, and he understood as soon as he heard this, because he is living like this now.

"What about you?"

"I have to go back and discuss it with my mother..."

"Should be..."

After Lin Ri finished speaking, the two fell silent again.

Not on the way means that two people will be separated.

And it might not have been a brief separation...

"We succeeded, the sun, as we said at the beginning, we won the championship." James Harden thought of what he said to Lin Ri in the bathhouse before the start of this season. At that time, he was really nervous. Now thinking of that time, he also feels a lot of emotion.

"Well, we have also become the strongest duo in NCAA." Lin Ritian added.

Although I want to add one, I won't add it.

"Hmm..." This time it was James Harden's turn to nod, "The sun, I'm very happy to be teammates with you. This year feels great!"

Speaking of James Harden stretched his hand towards Lin Ri, he wanted to give Lin Ri another high-five, just like they do every time before the game.

Lin Ri smiled and clapped his hands: "Me too!"

"Then... see you in the NBA!"

"See you in the NBA!"
