Chapter 578
Van Gundy looked at him, again speechless at the intelligence of the Haitians, and said, "Is this comparable? This is New York, our own fans! It's our family! Lamar is not kind to them, who is kind, idiot!"
While walking forward, Lamar met the request of some fans for autographs, which made the fans who came to greet him feel more favorable towards Lamar. .?r?a?n?? e?n?`o?r?g?
For a while, the hall of the airport was crowded, and everyone rushed in the direction of Lamar. New York fans, however, don't want to miss this opportunity until they see Lamar in such an amiable appearance.
"Alright, Lamar! I think that's enough!"
Seeing that the scene was about to get out of control, Van Gundy hurriedly ran over and hugged Lamar. Then the group, escorted by the team's bodyguards and airport security, passed through the fans and got into the bus waiting outside the airport.
When I returned to Madison Garden, everyone was in good spirits because they had slept on the plane for a long time.
The idle Dampotters and the others who train in New York want to go to a nightclub in the evening.
Lamar is not interested in nightclubs at all, and the last thing he wants to do now is to go back to his estate and see the woman who haunts him and the little bun in his belly.
"Samuel, don't you think this place is beautiful!" Lamar said to the Haitians behind him, standing high above the arena and looking at the scenery outside the arena.
Dampotter is now fantasizing about how he can make a big difference at tonight's carnival and treat his little brother by the way. Hearing Lamar ask this question, which was a bit out of bounds, he was stunned for a long time before saying, "Yes, I think it's great." I don't like tall buildings or cars because they only make me feel like a steel monster, but I can't live without the glitz and glamour!"
"Who are you having a treat tonight?" Lamar asked, a little curious.
When it comes to tonight's event, Dampotter immediately comes to his senses: "Of course it's Gilbert, this guy is the organizer!"
"That's right!"
"I think so too!"
Arenas was silent at this time, and shouted anxiously, "You bastards, especially Dampot, you ugly devil! ”
When the Haitian saw that Arenas wanted to share the firepower with him, he glared and shouted, "Fart! I'm on a rookie contract now, and I can't get a few more dollars than you." The real rich man here is Alan Houston, who has a salary of more than 15 million a year alone. Next is the ugly ghost of Chaunse, whose annual salary is also more than 8 million. ”
Alan Houston shrugged and smiled, "Samuel, don't complain! If you try hard enough, I think Mr. Dolan will give you a Bird clause." ”
As soon as he heard the Bird clause, Dampoter's eyes immediately lit up: "Don't worry, Mr. Dolan will never be stingy after we win the championship this season, and I will buy that top-of-the-line sports car when the time comes." ”
Billups was obviously a little impressed, but he knew it would be too difficult for him to get that clause: "Lamar, how about you come with us in a moment? You don't seem to have been to a nightclub since you came to Knicks? That's not good! To be honest, I really envy you, maybe we can meet a lover like Vanessa like you." ”
The others all laughed.
A few people were laughing when Van Gundy pushed the door open and walked in. Van Gundy was joined by Lamar's agent, Falker. They came to discuss something with Lamar, and the Knicks wanted to renew Lamar's contract early.
As for his own contract issue, Lamar does not want to talk about it for the time being. Of course, this doesn't mean that Lamar has the intention of leaving the Knicks, it's just that Lamar wants to see the Knicks' sincerity first.
After saying goodbye to Van Gundy, Lamar left with his agent, Faulkel.
"Falker, you should have informed me in advance, didn't I talk to you about my contract extension in the offseason? As soon as he went out, Lamar began to complain about Faulkel.
Falker also had a bitter face: "Lamar! I can swear to God, I will definitely carry it out according to what we agreed before, and James Dolan also agreed." I was also surprised that they suddenly asked you to show up Van Gundy today!"
"I didn't know they were going to do it! But Lamar, your performance today is really fantastic, but Lamar, I think if you really want to create a era for the Knicks, your contract problem should be solved as soon as possible, and the six-year contract that the Knicks want is not unacceptable, and you will only be 29 years old when the contract expires, right? And compared to the four-year short contract you want, this is nearly 50 million short!"
Now Lamar is his number one cash cow, and Falker knows very well that as long as Lamar is served well, he will definitely get a lot in return.
"Well, Mr. Grandet, I know you only have money in your eyes, so you don't have to be so obvious. Although Lamar is reproaching, but for Falker's sake, Lamar's mood still looks very good.
"You're my employer! I have to think about you. You've turned down a lot of money in Japan before, and I have to make up for your losses! But Lamar, I really don't understand, why do you reject the Japanese so much?"
The corners of Lamar's mouth curled slightly, repulsive? It doesn't seem to be true! Lamar had also had intimate exchanges with Japanese beauties before.
Although it is very profitable to shoot advertisements and make endorsements, it is also very risky! Helping Japanese products expand their international influence, Lamar not only feels very awkward, but also very disdainful. Lamar came from later generations, and the quality problems of Japanese cars and certain products were in an uproar in Lamar's previous life, and Lamar didn't want the products he endorsed to be a rag! So when some big Japanese conglomerates approached Forker, Lamar refused without hesitation.
"Don't complain about Mr. Falkel, if a Japanese person comes to you in the future, you don't have to ask my opinion, just refuse! You should know that it is very difficult to change what I have decided. ”
"As for the reason, to be honest, I'm not worried about the Japanese products, the quality is not good, just look at those thin-skin cars of theirs!"
Falker was also helpless when he heard this, he really had never seen someone as serious as Lamar. Nowadays, which NBA player is not desperately trying to make money after gaining a little fame? Not to mention formal endorsements, it is even possible to do some dirty things.
Of course, Falker had also heard about the refusal of Japan's endorsement of the name of the drug, but this can also be understood as the national hatred between the two countries. However, Lamar's rejection of Japan on the grounds of quality is a bit unreasonable, after all, although the quality of Japanese things is a little worse, there has been no major problem.
Falker felt that Lamar was a little uncomfortable with money. But Lamar's temper was also clear to him, and he knew that it was useless to say anything, so he simply kept silent.
When I arrived at the underground parking lot, Lamar saw a petite figure standing next to a car, wearing a big trench coat. Although it was already night, it was still very hot and humid in New York.
Falker smiled ambiguously and said to Lamar: "Lamar, your favorite is here! Vanessa is a very nice girl, it's a pity! If I were younger, I might have to fight with you." ”
After saying that, Falker also patted Lamar on the shoulder meaningfully, and then turned to get into another car.
Lamar watched Falker leave, hesitated for a moment and walked over to Vanessa's side.
At this time, Vanessa also saw Lamar, pursed her lips and smiled, and the face that had become a little round because of pregnancy made Lamar have the urge to pinch it.
"Why are you waiting for me here?"
Vanessa smiled and nodded generously: "I miss you!"
Lamar smiled and put his arm around Vanessa, trying to hide his happiness. With Falker just now, Lamar can be so calm. Now that it was just the two of them, Lamar couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
"I haven't hugged you well for almost half a month, how are you and your child doing?"
"Do you care about me or do you care about the children? Now that my belly is so big, it's inconvenient to go out shopping. Whoever eats every day is about to become a piglet, but with the two bear children Nini and Krees, they are quite fulfilling. ”
Hearing that Vanessa was doing well, Lamar also put down the new one he had been hanging.
Seeing that Lamar did not speak, Vanessa smiled and said, "Have you had dinner? I will invite you to dinner today! I ate a little bit at noon, but I was not full, and now I am starving to death." ”
As he spoke, he rubbed his huge belly, which looked very cute, which made Lamar's eyes a little softer.
"Okay! You invite me! Just think you're picking up the wind and washing the dust for me. ”
Vanessa put her arm around Lamar and smiled happily, stretched out her hand to gesture an OK, and then got into the car next to her, and waved at Lamar in a hurry.
Looking at Vanessa's anxious appearance, Lamar couldn't help but mention it again when she put it down, they are all people who are about to become a mother of children, and they are still so anxious! Now Lamar just hopes that the frizzy Vanessa will not have an accident.
Early the next morning, Lamar drove to the stadium to participate in training.
"Lamar! It is said that the Dallas people have arrived in New York a day early, and it seems that they are not good at coming this time!" Van Gundy said to Lamar with some concern.
For the Knicks, who are aiming to win the championship this season, if they lose the first regular season game against the Dallas Mavericks, it will have a great impact on the team's trend throughout the season.
