Yang Jian finally returned to Seattle after ten days. Now he can have a good rest at home and play at home.

After visiting other cities, he prefers Seattle. Putting aside the NBA market, this city is really suitable for long-term living.

Not only does it have a large beach, but it also has acres of green trees and plenty of sunshine. It is a beautiful and charming seaside city. It has a temperate marine climate, with the highest temperature throughout the year not exceeding 30 degrees and the lowest temperature around 10 degrees.

, the climate is pleasant and the air is fresh. Moreover, the social security conditions here are good, the cost of living is low, and the atmosphere is rich in diversity.

Drew Barrymore followed Yang Jian back to Seattle and moved into his apartment carelessly. Although he shared the apartment with Eric Snow, the apartment was large enough to ensure personal privacy.

The next morning, agent Steve Oldman came to visit the apartment and had many things to report to Yang Jian.

Barrymore walked out of the room wearing Yang Jian's blue cartoon pig head T-shirt. This T-shirt was a bit too big for Yang Jian to wear. It felt like a long skirt on the 163cm Barrymore, which looked a bit funny.

"Hello, Miss Barrymore." Oldman greeted warmly. "My name is Steve Oldman."

"Hello, you must be his agent, right?" Barrymore smiled.

"Yes, I came to him to talk about brand endorsements. Some companies can't wait." Oldman said happily.

"That's good news. Is the endorsement fee high?" Barrymore asked curiously.

"I think it's a sky-high price. I don't know what he thinks."

After Yang Jian sat on the couch, Oldman got to the point. "Yang, while you were away playing away games, the three companies kept increasing their prices. I think you don't have to wait until after Star Weekend, you can sign with Nike now."

Endorsement contract."

"Oh? What price did they offer?" Yang Jian asked calmly.

"Puma still offers the highest price. They are willing to give you an endorsement fee of 8.5 million yuan per year, and the contract term is at least 8 years. Nike is willing to lower the term and proposes to sign a 6-year contract of 48 million US dollars. And Nike has a complete planning plan, including your exclusive

I’ve already thought about the sneaker logo,” Oldman said with a smile.

"How much is the endorsement fee? Are you kidding me?!" Barrymore was dumbfounded.

Her salary for a movie is more than ten times lower than Yang Jian's endorsement fee, which is incomparable. Even so, she is the highest paid among young actresses in Hollywood. Because she has connections and is the director of the great director Spears.

Berg's goddaughter, the crew usually gives her a bit of a thumbs-down.

Barrymore is very satisfied with this. She was proud to say that her salary is higher than that of Yang Jian. How did she know that an NBA player who earns an annual salary of 200,000 US dollars for playing basketball would have such an outrageous sneaker endorsement contract?

Snow's jaw dropped in shock. "Is this a sneaker endorsement? This is simply like robbing a bank. If I were to rob a bank every year, I wouldn't be able to take away so much money."

In 1995, Yang Jian's endorsement contract was absolutely sky-high, averaging 8 million per year. It was far better than the 10-year, 50-million contract Iverson signed with Reebok in 1996, and the 6-year, 4,800-million contract signed by Kobe Bryant with Adidas in 1997.

Wan contracts remain unchanged.

In a parallel world, Iverson didn't prove himself when he first entered the league. He put up good numbers, but the 76ers had the worst record and couldn't make the playoffs. He wasn't selected to the All-Stars, but just won the Rookie of the Year award.

Kobe's only honor in his rookie season was the dunk king. He averaged only 7.6 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game, and his shooting percentage was 41.7%. Adidas signed him purely as a lottery ticket. I feel that his technical movements are very similar to Jordan's, that's all.

.

Yang Jian is obviously more promising. After joining the SuperSonics, he not only showed super scoring ability, but also had the best record in the league. He is almost scheduled to start in the Western Conference All-Stars. Many people are optimistic that he will challenge Jordan in the Finals this season. Conventional

During the game, he was competing with Jordan for the scoring title and temporarily took the lead.

More importantly, the sales of Yang Jian's jerseys are astonishing, and he has shown terrible commercial value. North American fans like him and don't care about his identity as a Chinese player, because his playing style is so beautiful.

Several companies believe that as long as Yang Jian's sneakers are not too ugly in design, sales will be terrible. Nike can't wait for the All-Star Weekend and plans to launch Yang Jian's first-generation exclusive sneakers during the All-Star Weekend.

Adidas did not increase the price to an outrageous level, which is related to the fact that Yang Jian is Chinese. Adidas is a German brand and they want to find an American star as a spokesperson. A German brand plus a Chinese spokesperson does not seem to be a good combination. They are worried that it will not be easy to sell shoes in North America.

.

Yang Jian was silent for a while without replying.

Oldman asked with a smile: "You don't think the contract is too long, do you? It expired in 2002. At that time, you were only 25 years old and in your prime. You can definitely renew a bigger contract."

"No, I'm thinking about how to spend so much money and plan to make some investments." Yang Jian smiled and said: "Reply to Nike, they are very sincere."

The three of them all stared at Yang Jian, hoping to see more excited expressions on his face. However, no, his tone was like signing a small contract, which was not enough to cause huge waves in their hearts.

Barrymore sighed: "Are you taking it too easy? This is a signing worth nearly $50 million."

"Money is just a number. I will definitely make more money in the future." Yang Jian shrugged.

The three of them all took a breath. They could feel that Yang Jian really didn't care much about this contract.

At most, Yang Jian is a little happy. He has money to invest in the stock market. In less than 10 years, this Nike contract will be just a fraction of his total net worth.

For a time traveler, investment is just picking up money, and there is no chance of losing money. There is no need for him to open a company to do business. That is redundant. He can just invest directly in promising companies and not participate in the management of dividends.

"Are there any other suitable endorsements available?" Yang Jian asked.

"The endorsement price offered by the car brand is very high, but you can't accept it. When are you going to take the driver's license test? How can you not have a driver's license in the United States?" Oldman said with a wry smile.

"I can take the exam at any time. I just need to familiarize myself with the exam process. Please register for me."

Barrymore smiled and said: "I can teach you to drive, my skills are pretty good."

"All right."

Oldman spoke about several types of endorsements, including snacks, electrical products, and clothing.

Yang Jian interrupted: "I'm interested in the suit. You should mainly talk about this. The other things can wait."

Yang Jian was approached by the famous brand "ck" Calvin Klein, which was founded in the United States in 1968. It is the largest designer brand in the United States and a world-famous luxury brand. It has won four well-known clothing awards in a row.

The design style of the American calvinklein company is simple, elegant, sexy, classic and fashionable.

Related products under the Klein brand are emerging one after another, and their momentum is extremely impressive. In addition to high-end, high-grade classics, its product range is also an advocate of fashionable genderless perfumes and denim clothing targeted at young people.

Barrymore lamented: "It turns out that not only women can notice that you have a good figure, but also men. This brand is so famous, and no such big brand has ever asked me to endorse it."

Oldman nodded and smiled: "This brand is very popular with women, and Klein Company hopes to make a breakthrough in men's ready-to-wear. Klein called me personally, and he was very sincere. When you went to New York,

He hopes to meet you."

The company has four major brands: high-end ready-to-wear, denim fashion, underwear, and fashionable sports and leisure wear. In addition, it also operates third-party products such as perfume, watches, jewelry, glasses, pajamas, swimsuits, socks, shoes, and home furnishings.

.

If Yang Jian becomes a spokesperson, in addition to filming advertisements, she can also wear clothing from this brand when attending formal events, not just suits.

He is the first NBA star to endorse this brand. Klein will not look for black players who are tall and thick. Yang Jian is taller than the male models in the fashion week, but the difference is not big. He is stronger than the models, but his limbs are slender.

, he looks handsome in a suit.

"I have no problem, I can meet him when I play away games, and I like to wear a suit on formal occasions."
