Chapter 986: I'm My Brother (4000+ Chapters, Ask for Subscription~)
"Slowly, you'll get used to this kind of life!"
On the plane to Los Angeles, Wu Jianye smiled and said to Wang Zhizhi, who was a little uncomfortable on the side.
When the time entered mid-August, Wang Zhizhi ended all things in China, including two advertisements for CK sports and cold water drinks.
It's officially on the plane to Los Angeles!
He was accompanied by Wang Zhizhi's parents and Mayo, as well as the Lakers' negotiation team!
As for Wu Jianye, he went to Los Angeles to deal with some things about Phantom Media, and at the same time welcomed Wang Zhizhi's arrival as the boss, and took Zhu Xuan and others back to China!
As for what Wu Jianye told Wang Zhizhi, it was because the media also knew the news that Wang Zhizhi was going to Los Angeles today, so they all blocked the airport and wanted to have a final interview with Wang Zhizhi.
The huge array of reporters made Wang Zhizhi a little uncomfortable!
Wu Jianye walked in early to avoid harassment by reporters.
"Well, Director Wu, I have to trouble you to send me over in person this time, thank you so much!" Wang Zhizhi thanked again.
Wu Jianye smiled: "It's okay, I have to go over and deal with some other things anyway." ”
"Anyway, I have to thank you for this matter, Director Wu!" Ren Huanzhen said on the other side of the aisle of the plane.
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "Dazhi, when you get to the Lakers, you can't be so shy, the people over there pay attention to their personality, if you have such a character, those people will target you!"
When Wang Zhizhi heard Wu Jianye say this, he couldn't help but be a little nervous again.
For Wang Zhizhi's character, Wu Jianye has no way to persuade anything, after all, a person's personality cannot be changed when others say it.
Only after some beating will Wang Zhizhi's character really mature.
"Let's get some rest, it's going to be a long time to get to Los Angeles!"
After finishing speaking, Wu Jianye began to close his eyes and recuperate!
The plane slowly operated on the airport apron, until it was completely parked, and after the captain broadcast, everyone got up and walked out of the cabin, got their luggage, and walked to the airport hall, they saw that there were already people holding Wang Zhizhi's sign in the crowd who picked up the plane!
This is the Lakers coming to pick up Wang Zhizhi!
In the airport hall, Wu Jianye said to Wang Zhizhi's family: "The team has arranged a place to live with you, someone will take you to the place where you live now to familiarize yourself, and then tomorrow, I will take you to the team!"
Wang Zhizhi's family once again expressed their gratitude to Wu Jianye.
If it weren't for the training fee paid to the Bayi team, Wang Zhizhi's family would have rented a house in Los Angeles, after all, CK sports and sweat drinks gave Wang Zhizhi a lot of advertising expenses.
It's just that after paying the training fee of the Bayi team, it is a little difficult for Wang Zhizhi's family to form a more decent house in Los Angeles.
So the team first rented a house for Wang Zhizhi, which is a typical American-style two-story villa, but this is not rented for nothing, but to be deducted from Wang Zhizhi's annual salary.
The NBA has its own payroll mechanism.
First of all, when a player signs with a certain team, there are two sources of funds, one is the signing fee, and the other is his own salary!
The signing fee is a one-shot deal, needless to say, it is basically 10 to 15 of the player's annual salary!
As for the annual salary, although everyone is willing to say that it is an annual salary, in fact, most players get a monthly salary or a half-monthly salary!
For example, if a player's annual salary is 1 million, after signing the contract, on the 1st or 15th of each month, the team will pay the player the salary of the month, and some are twice a month, that is, the salary of a month will be paid twice.
That's why there are so many fines in the NBA, and those fines are actually deducted from the player's salary.
Now the salary of the NBA has not risen to the horror of later generations, and now there is only one person with an annual salary of more than 10 million yuan, that is, Johnson, a magic man who has simply made a comeback.
Although the Magic did not play last year, the Lakers still paid Magic Johnson an annual salary of 14 million, which is already the highest annual salary in the NBA today.
Although Wu Jianye had known about Magic Johnson's situation for a long time, he still agreed to the price given by the team's management, which was actually to show the human side of the Lakers.
Although everyone knows that the NBA is a business league, the more it is, the more precious it is if a team with a little human touch appears!
In this period, the real main force of money is the league's center, in the last season, there were 75 players in the league with an annual salary of more than 1 million, and nine of them had an annual salary of more than 2 million.
In addition to Magic Johnson, the highest annual salary in the league last season was Patrick Ewing of the New York Knicks, the gorilla who later went to the Mosaic team to coach Chairman Yao, and the prototype of Akagi in "Slam Dunk", his annual salary is $9.4 million!
As for supernova O'Neal, the annual salary is only $5.7 million.
Everyone knows that the NBA is not the most popular league in North America, but it is undeniable that the highest salary of players in North America is NBA players, such as last season, the highest salary in the North American baseball league was Wren Sandberg, with an annual salary of only 7 million.
As for football league players, the pay is even lower, which is why Iverson will choose to join the NBA instead of the NFL next year.
In an era when the average annual salary of players has not exceeded 10 million US dollars, when Michael Jordan negotiated an annual salary for the first time after his return, the Bulls offered Michael Jordan an annual salary of 30.14 million, everyone should know how crazy this is.
At the time, the New York Times commented on the deal: 30 points, or 30 million, Jordan is on the ground.
As for Wang Zhizhi, although Wu Jianye is very optimistic about him, the Lakers also have their own salary system, even Wu Jianye can't give Wang Zhizhi too high an annual salary, but gives an annual salary of $750,000 that is slightly lower than that of the middle class and slightly higher than that of the rookie class!
This fund seems to be good for Wang Zhizhi, who has just gone abroad, but in fact, this does not calculate the taxes on players in Los Angeles!
California, as a large tax state in North America, also has a very heavy tax on NBA players, as high as 49.
In other words, Wang Zhizhi's actual salary is only 38.25 million US dollars!
Of course, this salary is already higher than the salary of many ordinary people in North America!
For Wang Zhizhi, if he can manage his image well, in fact, the real income in the future is not the team's salary, but the advertising he endorses!
Anyway, after Wang Zhizhi officially signs a contract with the Lakers tomorrow, the money from renting a house can be directly returned to the team, and at the same time, the life of their family of three in the Los Angeles Lakers is also guaranteed.
After everyone walked out of the airport hall, a special car took Wang Zhizhi's family of three and Mayo to their rented house, and everyone else went home.
Wu Jianye and Dai Zhen also returned to Beverly Hills Manor directly by car.
After coming to the manor, Wu saw Zhu Xuan, Li Xiuming, and Liu Xiaoli sitting in the garden chatting, while the four children were playing with joys and sorrows.
Naturally, it is Wu Luoxin, Liu Yifei and Zhao Ling'er, and Wu Nianyi is worried!
For Wu Luoxin, Wu Nianyi has always had no good way, he has always been eaten to death, plus Zhao Linger and Liu Yifei are helping by the side, Wu Nianyi has almost always been in the form of being bullied.
The same is true at this time.
Zhao Linger has been sent to North America by Zhao Lei and has been living in Beverly Hills Manor.
Wu Jianye rubbed his head, which had become a chicken nest, and said to Wu Nianyi: "Are you being bullied again?"
Wu Nianyi smiled, didn't care, and said, "No, I'll play with them, my mother told me that I am an older brother and have to take care of my younger brothers and sisters!"
Wu Jianye happily praised: "Yes, being an elder brother is how it should be, and it is your responsibility to take care of your younger brothers and sisters!"
Wu Nianyi nodded heavily.
Wu Luoxin saw that Wu Jianye was talking to Wu Nianyi, and directly threw himself into Wu Jianye's arms and declared his sovereignty!
Wu Jianye laughed and hugged Wu Luoxin.
Several people came to the garden together, Wu Jianye put Wu Luoxin down, the three children ran over, Liu Xiaoli smiled and expressed her gratitude to Wu Jianye, this time for the hospitality of their mother and daughter.
Wu Jianye said that Liu Xiaoli was too polite, after all, there is now a Liu Yifei between the two sides!
Zhu Xuan and Li Xiuming simply asked about Wu Jianye's visit to Los Angeles this time, and they only received a call from Wu Jianye at the beginning, knowing that he was coming to Los Angeles, but they didn't know why he came.
Hearing that Wu Jianye had brought Wang Zhizhi to Los Angeles this time, he asked if he wanted to invite their family over at night.
Chinese people attach great importance to the plot of their homeland, especially in this kind of foreign country, so even if they have no friendship with Wang Zhizhi's family, when they heard that Wu Jianye could come to Los Angeles with them, they had the idea of letting them come over for dinner together.
Wu Jianye shook his head and said, "No need, I believe there will be a lot of things for their family to be busy today, so we don't have to worry about them!"
And Wang Zhizhi's family has Mayo as an agent by their side, so there is no problem!
In the following days, the Lakers will also find a full-time translator for Wang Zhizhi, according to Wu Jianye's idea, they want to find him a translator who is a Chinese who has gone to school in Los Angeles or has stayed and is familiar with basketball terminology, but such a person is not easy to find.
So I can only recruit slowly!
In the evening, Wu Jianye chatted with Li Xiuming.
"Is there any harassment on the side of Xinxin during this time?"
Wu Jianye asked about the harassment of reporters, in North America, a place where the media industry is extremely developed, even Wu Jianye could not protect Li Xiuming's mother and daughter like protecting Gong Bin and his son in Xiangjiang, so Wu Luoxin's identity was quickly confirmed, so Wu Jianye was a little worried about Wu Luoxin's daily life.
This is the only sequelae after Wu Jianye gave Phantom Media to Wu Luoxin.
During this time, Wu Jianye was even thinking about it, and if he really couldn't do it, he sent Wu Luoxin to Luoshi Academy in Switzerland.
As the No. 1 aristocratic college in the league, Ross College has been the most favorite aristocratic college of the top golf families since its establishment in 1880, and is also known as the 'cradle of kings'.
For example, the kings of Iran, Egypt, Belgium, and the princes of Monaco have made Ross Middle School a must-have resume for royal nobles to go out to greet them.
Roset has always pursued "diversity". It stipulates that no more than 10 students from each country have a total number of students, and the students come from more than 60 countries, making it a truly international school.
In addition to princes and nobles, there are also "inheritors" from all countries and walks of life.
For example, the Middle East oil chaebols, Greek ship tycoons, Spanish banking families, American tobacco giants, and RB manufacturing conglomerates......
The only thing they have in common: they are either rich or rich, representing the most prominent few people on the planet.
By the way, Michael Kadoorie, the owner of The Peninsula Hotel, the Grand Hotel Group in Hong Kong, graduated from Ross College.
If Wu Luoxin is sent here, at least she can be guaranteed to be safe here.
"It's okay, even when I go out, there are always some reporters to follow and take pictures, although the bodyguards can protect Xinxin'an, but there is no way to stop the reporters from taking pictures secretly!"
As the youngest richest woman in the world today, Wu Luoxin already has a net worth of tens of billions of dollars at the age of less than ten years, and Wu Jianye naturally wants to place more bodyguards around her!
Hearing Li Xiuming say this, Wu Jianye's thoughts in his heart became even firmer.
"I think it's better to transfer Xinxin to," and then Wu Jianye said what he thought in his heart.
When Li Xiuming heard that Wu Luoxin was going to study at Luoshi College in Switzerland, he was naturally a little reluctant in his heart, looking at Li Xiuming's expression.
Wu Jianye said: "Of course, this matter is still up to you, you think about it first!"
Li Xiuming nodded, and his heart began to be entangled, on the one hand, he hoped that Wu Luoxin could receive the best education, and on the other hand, he was a little reluctant to leave Wu Luoxin's side at such a young age.
"I'll discuss it with Xinxin!" Li Xiuming finally said.
Wu Jianye naturally has no opinion on this, the best education can certainly give children a better future, but Wu Jianye believes that with his current power, all the so-called best education is nothing more than icing on the cake, he just doesn't want Wu Luoxin to live in the spotlight so early, so he has such an idea.
Li Xiuming said: "I heard that the entrance examination at Luoshi College is very strict?"
As the top aristocratic school in the ball, Luoshi Academy naturally has very strict admission requirements, but all this is not a difficult thing for Wu Jianye, no matter what kind of thing in this world, there is a privilege!
The most important thing for Wu Jianye now is actually whether Wu Luoxin is willing to go or not, not anything else!
