To say that Brian Kusmin is indeed a smart person, relying on the time when he was with Sun Ziming and Jiang Peng in the past, he got some guidance and made friends behind the two. In the past few years, he has led UTA not only to attack everywhere in Hollywood, but also to use NSPN's influence in the sports world to expand its business to the four major professional sports leagues of NBA, NFL, MLB, and NHL, and began to replicate the miracle of CAA in Sun Ziming's 'memory'.

However, Brian also knows that being a broker is actually about networking and trading, and networking can make others have the patience to listen to what you say, and trading can make others promise you something. Therefore, Sun Ziming goes to Las Vegas every year to play a few games with Jerry Raindorf, Jordan, and Pippen, and when he discusses the draft and other things by the way, he will also go along to join in the fun.

One is to consolidate his relationship with Sun Ziming, use the tiger skin as a banner, and let the boss's connections and reputation be used for himself; The second is to hear which rookies are future superstars in the eyes of the boss, so that it is convenient to send people to grab business. As it turned out, the boss was the one who was favored by God, and UTA signed a large number of superstars who were underrated by everyone, and quickly became the most influential agency in the NBA.

However, the people who showed up in the VIP room this year were a little different, as an old friend from the past was leaving. The retired basketball god still couldn't resist the temptation to become the boss again, and he couldn't bear the loneliness of being an assistant coach on the sidelines, so he sold his shares in the Bulls and went to Washington to become the absolute boss - head coach and general manager, wanting to build a legendary team according to his will.

The current boss of the Bulls is Scottie Pippen, the double MVP of the 99-2000 regular season and finals, and the second is the famous shark O'Neal. Of course, the Bulls can poach O'Neal and coax away Michael, who likes to continue to be the boss on the sidelines, and Brian has made a big deal. This is also the main reason why he has not been turned away from Sun Ziming not long after he has just offended Sun Ziming.

The 2000 draft was arguably the worst ever, but it didn't stop Sun from picking out two underrated future All-Stars, Jamal Mageloyle and Michael Reed. The former was written on the 'lucky dollar' of gambling by Jordan for fear of forgetting the big man, while the latter was remembered by Phil and happened to hit his 'triangle attack'. Of course, Brian, who was standing next to him, immediately texted his subordinates, ordering them to find the two future superstars and try to get an agent agreement before the draft.

Sun Ziming, who finished playing the magic stick, treated Brian, who had been in for half an hour, as if he had just arrived, and pretended to be surprised: "Yo, Mr. Brian, what kind of wind blew you here?" ”

can still mock himself, then he hasn't treated himself as a stranger, Brian hurriedly helped Sun Ziming light a cigarette like a dog, and flattered: "Boss, you are too polite, how can I be called Mr. You?" ”

The bosses and superstars who were playing cards and listening to Sun Ziming's words turned their heads and went straight to music. As soon as this guy came in, he knew that he had offended China Ming, and he was still very strict. Only China Ming can make this big man in the circle of agents so undisciplined, standing there as a transparent person for half an hour. But then again, if the agent is too disciplined, which celebrity would dare to invite it? Isn't a broker a person who is unscrupulous and wants to fight for everyone's best interests?

Sun Ziming didn't bother to pay attention to this bastard, if he was easily released in this matter, what if others came with him in the future? When Drew was disobedient, he was banned internally, and it was the same for Brian.

accepted Blair's sycophant, but Sun Ziming didn't answer his words, but continued to talk about the team, as if he was the owner of the team, and the real team owner didn't care.

In the past ten years, he has proved that his friends are much better than himself and Phil combined in terms of selecting and winning people, such as making Michael leave the Bulls happily, and preparing to let the big shark be the second child willingly. At the same time, Jerry was still pondering that the matter of meeting the old Kirk guy at night, the Bulls and the law firm compared to the evening matter, it was all small business.

"Shaquille, Jerry and I both miss the old days and both value friendship very much, you can see how we treat Michael. Michael, I didn't have the final say, did I? ”

Michael, who was shutting down a big cigar, was playing his cards and agreeing at the same time, and flaunting his greatness, "Of course! Shaquille, believe me, we Bulls guys are great players who talk the talk. At the beginning, I promised Scottie that I would make him the boss in the future, and after winning the second triple championship, I would retire immediately and honestly go to Phil as an assistant coach! ”

Speaking of which, Michael may feel that he has blown it over, and said for himself: "Of course, just retired, there are always some people who are not used to it, and sometimes the voice is a little louder and the temper is a little bad, you don't mind, right?" ”

You have said so, and you are the one who is leaving, what else can Shaquille say, he can only look at Sun Ziming, and replied insincerely: "No, we are a team." ”

Sun Ziming hurriedly took over the topic and continued: "Ok, your agent, I talked to Jerry and I, I admit that there is some truth, but you also have to be considerate of our difficulties."

Scotty has made a huge contribution and sacrifice for our team in the past, so we also see him as a friend, and we have to compensate our mutual friends for being friends. Now that he himself is at the end of his career, we all want him to be a true superstar who will always be remembered by history.

Shaquille, my friend, so we all as friends, ask you to assist him for another two years, okay? Don't worry, this team will be yours in two years, and if you build a team around you, can you agree to the request of our friends? ”

"No problem, he's my brother!"

This time the big shark promised very happily, as long as Michael didn't play the boss on the sidelines, Scotty was not bad for himself. This guy respects himself on and off the court, and he stands up for himself in everything, and just now he helped himself get a chance to act in a movie. God, that's China Ming's movie, it's not bad to show a face, not to mention a supporting role with three lines!

Brian, who had no seat next to him, saw that the boss ignored him and concentrated on the performance, and he was not panicking about his situation at all, but praised the boss's performance, which had reached a very high height. While enjoying the wonderful performance of the boss, Brian opened his briefcase and took out the agreement signed by Rowling, and when he was finished, he turned to the last page and handed it over flatteringly, and said nonsense with his eyes open: "Boss, I am from light and shadow, how can I damage its interests?" If I'm not quite sure, I won't mess around. ”

Sun Tzu, who had just finished the performance, glanced at the agreement, and his eyes immediately widened, and he looked at Brian suspiciously, which was beyond his expectations.

I have to say that Brian is a master who can deceive himself first and then others.

Sun Ziming looked at it carefully for a long time, but he didn't see the flaws of this bastard, he could even call himself aggrieved, "Boss, this matter was put in the past, that is, the dispute between the artist department and the director department." You can't just because we're away from light and shadow and involve your personal studio without taking a fair stand. ”

Sun Ziming is very confident in his observation ability, which is learned from the actors and actresses, and he doesn't believe that Brian's acting skills are better than them. Seeing that Rowling wrote in the agreement that part of the proceeds she received would be donated to Jingshi University to fund the study of Faculty of Arts students in the UK, Sun Ziming no longer had the heart to play, and threw down the card and said, "You guys play, I have to deal with it in advance." Brian, you come with me. ”

The two of them came to the lounge outside the VIP room and closed the door, and Sun Zi Ming looked at Brian suspiciously, waiting for him to give him an explanation.

In hindsight, it was far better than looking for clues from the chaos, and Brian had been on a plane for more than ten hours, and he had already strung everything together and came up with enough reasons.

"Boss, Rowling is a person who is immersed in her own world, and she can write such beautiful words and fantasy novels. She is a writer, and what she values most is that state of mind and spirituality.

Hehe, if it weren't for us, and I'm an agent, I would have felt very immoral, let alone her? ”

Sun Ziming suddenly remembered something, his face was ugly, and he stared at this guy gloomily and said, "So you're lying to me again?" ”

"NO, no", Brian, who was in good shape, denied repeatedly, "Boss, I am a broker, and I must be proficient in mastering the psychology of customers in order to firmly grasp customers." Rowling is our biggest client, and we've analyzed everything about her thoroughly. Hehe, we are eating this line of food, trying our best to fight for the interests of our customers, but also for our own interests.

Of course, if the client insists on giving up his own interests, we can only respect their choice. However, according to the convention, if he gives up a reasonable interest for some personal reason, most of our customers will still compensate us. ”

After looking at Brian carefully for a while, Sun Ziming still didn't find any flaws in him, and reprimanded him with a dark face, "There is no discipline thing!" ”

The boulder in Brian's heart finally fell to the ground, and this level was finally over, and he hurriedly laughed at himself: "Boss, do what we do, if there is still such a thing as discipline, can you get ahead?" ”

"Alright, alright, get out of here! You and Jill made a special trip to visit Rowling to discuss how to set up the foundation. Also, have Jill inform the school preparatory committee and leave a pedestal for a statue in front of the school building that bears her name. The style of others is so noble, and we have to reciprocate. ”

"Ok, I'll go talk to Jill right away, just in time to spread the word about Miss Rowling's generosity."

This is a serious matter, which is beneficial to the light and shadow company and Jingshi University, and Sun Ziming also hurriedly used Brian's phone to inform Jill and asked the public relations department to cooperate with UTA's publicity work.

After Sun Ziming finished calling, Brian also hurriedly took the opportunity to wipe his ass and reminded: "Boss, how do we explain the change of the copyright agreement?" ”

"Find Jill, let her settle those shareholders, everyone's business, no one dares to mess around!"

Brian was shocked, and the boss still wanted to make himself a 'mercenary villain', which was counted as a punishment for himself. Forget it, the broker can't do much worse with this reputation.
