I Know Everything

Chapter 613: 600 million dollars in 10 years!

Is there still no news? Paul Allen sat on the sunny beach and asked the general manager in front of him.

Orsi is now the general manager of the Trail Blazers.

Since being poached from the Los Angeles Clippers 4 years ago, the selection of young players in recent years has been very commendable.

Now he is very frustrated.

Facing the boss's question, he smiled wryly: No, I sent him a message after the game last night, and called again this morning, but he still hasn't made a decision.

Paul Allen frowned and asked, Is it because of money?

Probably not... Orsi was a little uncertain, but also more confident, The five-year contract of 250 million US dollars is already the first in history, and no one can match it! Use this price to solicit A 17-year-old young man, even if he is a championship winner, we definitely think highly of him.

Before the Western Conference Finals in May, many smart NBA general managers had already offered Shen Huan an offer in advance.

Everyone knew at the time that the Lakers paid a huge amount of money and offered Shen Huan a five-year, $200 million contract.

So the prices they offer are all about the same price.

Now Shen Huan has made it all the way to the finals, and then won the championship. He has contributed a lot. Of course, every team wants Shen Huan.

Especially the Trail Blazers who played against Shen Huan.

The average age of the team's main force is not even 25 years old. The two pillars are the 25-year-old Damian Lillard and the 24-year-old C.J McCrum.

Both of them were convinced by Shen Huan's beating.

Even if Shen Huan broke Plumlee's ribs, even if Shen Huan almost strangled Davis, this is not a problem.

In the NBA, only strength is eternal.

As long as Shen Huan can be obtained, the Trail Blazers will have no problem cutting these two players directly.

With both Lillard and McCrum willing to assist Shen Huan, if Shen Huan is snatched, it is no exaggeration, the Trail Blazers will not lack the competition for the finals championship in the next 10 years force.

This is why Paul Allen is willing to sign Shen Huan at a high price.

Seeing Orsi's expression, Paul Allen pondered for a moment, and said: Since he didn't respond, it proves that he is not interested in our conditions. It also proves that your guess should be wrong.

So just raise the offer again, I am willing to pay the luxury tax for him. A 10-year $600 million contract, ask him if he would like to sign it!

Orsi: ...

Boss, if you say this price, it will scare many people to death! Orsi smiled wryly, Give him such a high salary, what will the rest of our players do? This will affect the balance!

As long as I have Chen Huan's strength, I don't care how much I give. Paul Allen smiled, If you don't have Shen Huan's ability, how dare you expect the same treatment as Shen Huan?... Go ahead and raise the price! I want Shen Huan! I want him to play in Portland!

All right!

Facing the top ten richest people in the world, Orsi chose to succumb.

looking at his back,

Paul Allen shook his head.

Orsi still has the ability, but the structure is not big, there is no way to jump out of the NBA, out of the United States.

If we signed Shen Huan, it would be even more sensational than when Yao was here. The Huaguo market alone is enough for us to make a lot of money, and we won't lose money at all!

...

At this time in distant Los Angeles, an old friend who has a deep connection with Paul Allen is also discussing Shen Huan.

He is Ballmer, the owner of the Los Angeles Clippers, and the former CEO of Microsoft.

Ballmer, who has a fortune of more than 30 billion U.S. dollars, is not as much as Paul Allen's more than 40 billion U.S. dollars, but he is also among the top 15 super-rich people in the United States.

Two years ago, he spent 2 billion to buy the Los Angeles Clippers. Since then, he will watch every game and cheer for the team. He is an out-and-out super fan.

Now he is also determined to win Shen Huan.

The general manager of the team, Dave Wall, quoted their price: 370 million US dollars in seven years. The team will sell which player.

Including the current team leader Chris Paul, as long as Shen Huan doesn't like it, he can leave.

This is the greatest power, and it has surpassed the team's head coach Rivers, and it is even more cowhide than Dave Wall.

But unfortunately, Dave Wall, who has been guarding in front of the phone, did not receive a call from Shen Huan until noon.

A little uneasy, he reported the situation to his boss Ballmer.

Ballmer was also a little surprised by this: Did we ask a lower price? This is a super contract of more than 50 million U.S. dollars per year!

I don't know, but the Lakers have never been afraid of others in terms of price. Dave Wall said, If everyone's price is similar, and if we have Kobe and Iverson, we will definitely not be able to compete with the Lakers. Team.

I understand. Ballmer nodded, and said solemnly: Report another price, 600 million US dollars in 10 years, and the rest of the conditions remain the same.

What!?

Dave Wall thought he had heard wrong.

He didn't smile until he saw Ballmer nodding again, Boss, you will pay a lot of luxury taxes in this way!

Starting next season, the price of the NBA's broadcast contract has skyrocketed, so the salary cap of each team has also increased a lot, so that every team can sign two superstars worth more than 35 million, as long as you are willing to pay a luxury tax of 35 million , You can completely achieve the great cause of the previous Heat Big Three.

But even with such a high salary cap, it can't stop the 60 million one-year contract for Shen Huan!

Coupled with Chris Paul, plus one or two possible All-Star players, the overall salary cap will be at least 150 million US dollars.

How much luxury tax do you have to pay!

But Ballmer laughed, When a superstar who can change the entire NBA pattern appears on his own, no amount of price can be paid! Because we missed him, we can only sigh sadly. In a few years, I can only watch him lead other teams to kill the Quartet! If you miss the deal, can you not do it?

Seeing the boss's affirmation, Dave Wall could only choose to obey.

Anyway, the boss is too rich, a mere 60 million dollars a year, to him it's just like playing.

Just like what the boss said, if Shen Huan can really be signed, the Los Angeles Clippers will definitely dominate the NBA in the next 10 years.

It is no problem to win five or six championships in one go.

In that case, it would be of great benefit to the team itself!
