In general, Americans don't know what cover-up is.

All sorts of doubts and comments appeared in major newspapers and news commentaries the next day.

Originally, the New York Kirins were not very famous after the name change, but the problem is that its owner is famous, and he can be called a famous tycoon in the United States, so there are many people who pay attention to this team.

As soon as these reports came out, fans and non-fans also talked about this year's New York Kirins team.

Putting down the newspaper in his hand, David Stern looked at the young man who was already sitting opposite him, and smiled slightly, "Mr. Yin, it seems that you are in a very good mood, and you have not been affected at all?"

"I've collected all the newspapers. Yin Jun drank the drink in front of him and said, "In 5 years, I will post all these newspapers and let them see how wrong they are!"

David Stern was surprised, "Do you really think they can do it?"

"I chose all these people, including Karl Malone. Yin Jun said unabashedly, "Mr. President, please wait and see, after 5 years, we will definitely be the most powerful contenders for the championship." ”

David Stern was even more strange in his heart.

I didn't hear that Yin Jun is an avid basketball fan!

Even if he likes basketball very much, and selecting players is such a professional thing, many veterans don't dare to say that they can see it, for fear of buying water goods, how can you have such a big breath as a person who has just entered the industry?

Think about it again.

Yin Jun is a genius praised by Mr. Hawking, and David Stern knows Yin Jun's ability to see people in entertainment, maybe people's ability to see people can be extended to basketball?

Putting aside this slightly ridiculous idea, David Stern didn't think Yin Jun was arrogant.

Because he noticed that Yin Jun was talking about "5 years later", and the New York Kirins were the strong contenders for the championship.

This is very sensible and has a long-term plan.

If Yin Jun opened his mouth and said that we are going to win the championship next year, it would be a big joke.

Now that the Celtics and Lakers are in full swing, how can you talk about winning championships without three or five years of running-in for a team that has recently bought so many players?

"I'm not sure if you're the best contenders for the championship, but you're definitely the team that is the most willing to spend money. David Stern said, "Jack Sikma is a salary of 4.3 million for 7 years, Jordan you gave him 1 million for 5 years, Barkley is also 800,000 for 5 years, Stockton is 600,000 for 5 years, and even the little-known Karl Malone is 400,000 for 5 years...... The salary cap has been broken, and you're going to have to pay a lot of luxury tax!"

"It looks like I'm catching up with the worst of times. Yin Jun spread out his hand and said with a wry smile.

N.BA's salary cap system and luxury tax system happened to be calculated from the 1984-1985 season, that is, from now on.

It hadn't been the case for a few years, but David Stern had been working on the enactment and implementation of these policies.

When he became the president of the alliance, then these two systems were directly implemented.

The salary cap refers to the limit on the total compensation of a team's players, meaning that you can only have that much at most.

This is the first year, and the league's salary cap is $3.6 million.

According to the figures published by the Union, the percentage of the salary cap is 48 percent, and the luxury tax threshold is 55 percent.

This means that next season, 4.125 million is the limit of the luxury tax.

If that number is exceeded, then you will pay an expensive luxury tax, basically one dollar for every additional dollar.

The two aces of the New York Kirins, that is, the league's All-Star team players - Bernard?? Kim and the newly bought Jack Sikma have a salary of four or five hundred thousand a year.

The two of them have almost $1 million, and the rest of the players add up to about $4.5 million, and the New York Kirins luxury tax is more than 300,000.

More than 300,000 US dollars, which is definitely not a large amount in Yin Jun.

But Yin Jun also knows that David Stern is not talking about this year, but later.

The annual salaries of most N.BA players are constantly increasing, and the New York Kirins are 4.5 million this year, and they will definitely break 5 million next year......

After 5 years, it is not impossible to exceed 10 million, even if the salary cap will rise every year, but at that time it will definitely be two or three million luxury taxes per year!

David Stern didn't know that Yin Jun's wry smile was not because of the money calculated in the newspaper, but because of the salary and luxury tax that Yin Jun would actually pay in the future.

Others don't say, a superstar like Jordan, this first 5-year contract is impossible to execute, and it has to be re-signed, at that time it will not be 5 years 1 million, at least 5 years and 10 million foundations!

Don't doubt it.

Originally, Yin Jun, at Nowitzki's suggestion, was ready to give Jordan a salary of 800,000 for five years, which is very suitable for a young player.

But Jordan's father insisted on reaching 1 million, considering that the gap was not big, and Yin Jun really had to be Jordan, so Nowitzki could only agree.

In the future, Jordan's game will get better and better, do you think his father can still sit still?

Here is a special explanation, Yin Jun saw on the Internet in his previous life that Jordan's salary in the first year was 600,000 US dollars, and the teenager felt that this amount was not accurate.

Because in this year, the most famous superstar of the N.BA era, Larry Bird, announced that he jumped out of the salary cap and signed a three-year, $4 million super contract with the "Larry Bird Clause" formulated for him by the league.

The salary for the first year is $1 million, which is the first day price in history!

Even a superstar like Larry Bird is also a unique superstar, who has played for so many years, is 28 years old this year, and can only get a salary of 1 million, you Jordan is a newcomer who has nothing, no matter how optimistic you are, how can the team give you $600,000?

The super core of the team is only 600,000 US dollars!

If you are a newcomer and get so much salary, will they make trouble if other main forces want to raise their salaries?

This year's salary cap is only 3.6 million US dollars!

You Jordan alone occupy one-sixth of a team's salary share, do you think it's appropriate?

Therefore, Yin Jun feels that Nowitzki's suggestion to let Jordan get a salary of less than 200,000 in the first year is very in line with the current market.

The amount of $600,000 is still too exaggerated!

Thinking about the salary that Jordan will get in the future, Yin Jun thinks that if he can use it cheaply for a few years, he can save a little.

It's still a little distressing to pay such a high luxury tax to the N.BA Alliance for nothing.

Not only Jordan, but among the supergiants that Yin Jun is about to sign, which one is not at the annual salary level of millions of dollars?

In 10 years, I am afraid that Yin Jun will have to pay 50 million or more luxury taxes every year!!

"I think that Mr. Yin, you are joining now, which is the best time for us to N.BA. David Stern smiled, "On the one hand, your money will make us full of vitality and have more funds to promote." On the other hand, I really like the Chinese market! You also have a good basketball culture, and it would be great if you could increase the exchange and cooperation between the two sides!"

The young man laughed dumbly, "Mr. President, you are very honest. ”

The current N.BA league doesn't have much money, and it's not the second largest sport in the world, so David Stern naturally wants to do everything possible to promote N.BA.

Naturally, money is needed to promote publicity, and the extra income such as luxury tax is, of course, the best source of expenses.

Of course, this luxury tax is not all for the league, it can only collect about 10%-20% for office operation expenses, and most of the rest will be distributed to the league's teams in proportion.

Even the New York Unicorns, who have paid the luxury tax, will have them, but they will have them, but they will be few.

The more they are not close to the luxury tax, the less they are paid, the more they can get.

This compensation mechanism is very popular with the team.

And David Stern's promotion of the Chinese market is also well-known in later generations.

In the past few years, the live broadcast and broadcast of the N.BA competition were all broadcast by David Stern begging Huaxia TV to broadcast it, not only did he not need money, but he N.BA all the production and editing himself.

If it weren't for the special era, maybe the preseason games in the N.BA of the 90s would have been played in China.

Yin Jun bought the New York Kirins, in fact, he was vaguely taken care of by David Stern, which Colotti told Yin Jun about, and the teenager naturally knew why.

"On the mainland side of China, the broadcast and live broadcast of the game, I will help you do this. Yin Jun groaned, "Within two years, let Huaguo's Huaxia TV station broadcast it directly." ”

"Really!?"

David Stern was talking about the future, and he didn't have the luxury of asking Yin Jun to take action in person, as long as he used the excuse that Yin Jun also had a team in the N.BA, he went to talk to Huaxia TV.

He knows what kind of behemoth Huaxia TV is.

When he thought that Yin Jun, who had a great influence in China, was willing to take care of it and guarantee that it would be broadcast on Huaxia TV, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Of course it's true, I love basketball too. Yin Jun said with a smile.

Compared with the football that has not been competitive for thousands of years, Huaguo's basketball is at least worth watching, and superstars such as Yao Giant have also performed very well in N.BA, which can be regarded as rushing out of the country!

"Then please!" David Stern said eagerly, "Mr. Yin, I won't say thank you, as long as I am in the league in the future, no one can hinder the normal operation and game of the New York Kirin team!"

He is a very bottom-line person, and he will never trade his power, nor will he say that I take special care of you.

David Stern just made sure to treat Yin Jun's team in the fairest way within his ability.
