Chapter 306: You're going to be an NBA agent? (below)
"Have you really figured it out?" Tang Qian looked at Zhou Zhiru and said, "Will your parents agree?" β
"Of course, I've already discussed this with them. Pen % fun % pavilion www.biquge.info" Zhou Zhiru said.
"What? They actually agreed? Tang Qian felt a little strange, because generally speaking, domestic parents would not agree to a little girl working alone in a foreign country, let alone such a difficult profession. Tang Qian remembered that Zhou Zhiru's family was very good, did her parents really not interfere?
"What about the relevant documents and licenses? Do you have one? Tang Qian asked a very amateurish question.
Zhou Zhiru looked at Tang Qian and said slowly: "Relevant documents? Licence? Tang Qian, your question is very amateurish, it makes me wonder if you are playing in the NBA. "Huh? What do you mean? Tang Qian said a little incomprehensibly.
"The threshold for an NBA agent is actually frighteningly low." Zhou Zhiru said: "Or you don't need any documents at all, you can be it." Look at Ray back then. Allen personally went into battle to negotiate with the team, and there are many ordinary NBA players, who directly ask their friends or relatives to be their agents. Even if you are a licensed broker, as long as there is no stain on your reputation and debt, you can easily apply for success, and at most spend a little money. I heard about LeBron. James' good brother is now applying for a licensed agent and maybe in the future, he can replace Leon. Ross may become James' right-hand man. β
Hearing this, Tang Qian felt a little admiration for Zhou Zhiru, because he had memories of the next few years, and he knew very well that in September this year, LeBron . What will James do. He fired Leon, who had been taking him since 2005. Rose, switched to a guy named Richie. Paul's bosom of the "little man". At that time, many media said that James was "stupid and conceited", and it was simply dizzy to hire a "little gangster" who did not have a college diploma as an agent. But it turned out that a few years later, this one was called Richie. Paul's people became rich and became famous in the NBA, and the person who made him rich overnight was none other than the "little emperor" LeBron. James.
In James, he has become a multimillionaire in just a few years, and this speed is rare in the NBA agent world, and even makes many veteran agents feel ashamed. And this one is called Richie. Paul's person is actually a close friend of James when he was young, what is called "the back of the tree is good for the shade", Richie. Paul told people all over the world from his own experience.
Here's the problem, Richie. Paul was not registered with the NBA Players' Union at first, but he still passed the so-called "assessment", which is very obvious. A lot of NBA agents have attacked Rich on this point. Paul, but with "Emperor Zhan" as a guarantee, the dollar opened the way, and in the end everything became a thing of the past and disappeared.
So thinking of this, the girl in front of me is not incapable of being an NBA agent.
The question is, though, who is she going to represent? You must know that in the American sports circle, the first order is very important, which represents your ability and image, if the first shot does not hit, then it is very likely to quickly become a last-class agent, and the commission you can get in a year is very little.
"Well, who do you want to represent? Are there any rookies that you have a catch? Tang Qian asked according to normal thinking, because players who play in the NBA basically already have fixed agents, so "novice agents" generally like to start from non-professional players. For example, NCAA college students, or some potential players in minor leagues.
"Rookie?" Zhou Zhiru understood what Tang Qian meant, shook her head and said: "I don't have time to do this, my first goal is to be an active NBA player." "Looking for an active NBA player? This. Tang Qianyan frowned when he heard this, and said: "I'm afraid this is a bit difficult, not to mention whether you can find a player, even if you find it, will people let you act as a novice agent?" β
Tang Qian's words were very practical, because Zhou Zhiru's way of starting made him feel very bad.
"So, I'm going to ask him now." Zhou Zhiru paused, and then suddenly said to Tang Qian: "Tang Qian, are you willing to let me be your agent?" β
wοΌwhatοΌ I?
Tang Qian was stunned for a while. Force. , stunned for a while before saying, "This, this is not a joke, right?" β
"I'm serious, Tang Qian." Zhou Zhiru said.
"......"
"You don't need to worry, I have done sufficient broker training in this area, and the corresponding legal certificates are also being prepared." Zhou Zhiru said. "You, when did you start preparing for this? Could it be ......" Tang Qian suddenly thought of something, and asked suspiciously: "You came to the United States just to learn this knowledge?" β
"You're only half right, Tang Qian." Zhou Zhiru picked the tips of her hair and said, "I was preparing for this in China a long time ago, but at that time...... Forget it, don't talk about it, you don't need to give me an answer right away, I can wait patiently. β
Tang Qian's brain was a little hairy. Confused, he was a little unsure of Zhou Zhiru's true meaning, but after a while, he still nodded and said, "Well, that's good, I'll consider this suggestion." β
"Okay, then I'll wait for your news." Zhou Zhiru replied very professionally.
A meal passed in this dizzy atmosphere, and Tang Qian had been thinking about this matter during the banquet, so he always seemed a little absent-minded.
It was night, and Tang Qian finally decided on the answer and rejected Zhou Zhiru's suggestion.
Because he always felt that this little girl was here for him, and if he relented and agreed, it would only make the other party fall deeper and deeper.
Cut the Gordian knot!
Although it seems a little unkind, this is the best ending for Zhou Zhiru, and maybe they will return to China obediently as soon as they are frustrated. Anyway, in Tang Qian's opinion, if Zhou Zhiru wants to be an NBA agent, it is simply "nonsense", and it is really a "brain fever" behavior that has not been considered at all.
The next day, Tang Qian arrived early at a small gymnasium in Los Angeles, which was his secret offseason training base.
"Huh? Why haven't you come yet? Didn't this guy forget it for me! Seeing that the appointed time was about to arrive, Tang Qian began to be a little anxious. Because of Hua Da Worm's off-site character, it has always been a place to criticize, if he really released Tang Qian's pigeons, then Tang Qian would not have any way.
At eight o'clock, the door of the gymnasium was pushed open, and Tang Qian turned his head to see that it was not the flower worm Rodman standing there, who was it?
"Hi~Chinese kid~Good morning~" Hua Daworm is still dressed in the same way, with bells and whistles, a lot of rings, and a pair of heavy sunglasses hanging on his head. "You're here? I thought you were going to release my pigeons! Tang Qian glanced at Rodman and spoke.
"haha~ I've always disliked arriving early, but I'm not late, am I?" After Rodman finished speaking, he walked in and said, "Boy, I have made up your friend. Woman. Six. Seven, that effect, it's really leveraged, it's bursting! β
"VI. Seven? Tang Qian rolled his eyes and said, "You're not afraid of exhausting yourself to death!" β
"It's been a long time since I've had this fun! Of course, you have to have enough fun at once! Next time I take you there, you will definitely ......" Before Rodman finished speaking, Tang Qian opened his mouth and interrupted: "Gotta ~ Stop, stop~ I don't have that kind of interest and hobby, I invite you to come just to ask about basketball, and I don't want to know anything else." β
"You kid is so uninteresting~ When I was your age, it was almost every day......" Seeing that Rodman was going to say more, Tang Qian immediately waved his hand and said: "Okay, okay, I've paid you, stop chatting and train immediately!" β
"Just your money? Ten times more to the old. Son, old. Sons are not uncommon! Rodman grumbled and got to the point: "What do you want me to train?" Offensive? Defend? "Defense and rebounding!" Tang Qian had already thought of the answer.
"Defense and rebounding?" Rodman smiled and said, "Yes, but do you kid have this talent?" β
"What do you mean?" Tang Qian asked, "What talent?" β
"Of course, it's a talent for rebounding and defense." Rodman said, "You don't think you can learn what I teach you, do you?" Is there really such a good thing, so the 'big dream footsteps' don't spread throughout the NBA league? β
"So what do you think of talent?" Tang Qiandao.
"Grab a few rebounds and show me first." Rodman grabbed a basketball and suddenly shot at the basket.
Bang ~ basketball hit iron ~ bounce out of the basket ~
"You're so slow." Rodman said: "The basketball has fallen to the ground, and you haven't reacted yet, it's really bad!" β
"How did I know you were going to make a surprise attack!" Tang Qian said dissatisfiedly.
"It's going to be all of a sudden, to see how reflexes you can rebound, but obviously, you're not qualified." Rodman said, "Don't stare at me, I don't like to be stared at by a big man!" Keep grabbing! β
Rodman made a few more shots, and this time Tang Qian's mental strength was very concentrated, and he didn't miss a single rebound.
"How?" Seeing that Rodman stopped, Tang Qian turned around and asked.
"How's that? It sucks! Rodman's words made Tang Qian unhappy: "I grabbed it all, didn't you see it?" β
"There is no one under the basket, you and the air grabbed the rebound, and you deserved it, do you still expect me to praise you?" Listening to Rodman's words, Tang Qian said "hatefully": "Then you should start arranging training for me, otherwise how can I improve." β
"Well, no problem." This time, Rodman replied simply: "Through the few balls you just made, I know how far to start." "To what extent?" Tang Qian asked.
"Kindergarten level." Rodman still said with a "poisonous tongue": "Let's start with the card slot, your card slot method is even worse than that of the primitives." β
β¦β¦
"Spread your legs a little and sink your waist a little, oops, are you going to split like this? I'm not asking you to do gymnastics! β
β¦β¦
"Move, keep moving, don't stand dead under your feet, hey, I said don't stand dead under your feet, didn't you hear???"
β¦β¦
"You idiot! Standing so dead under your feet, encountering a card position master, you can lose your advantageous position in the blink of an eye! To move, keep moving! shi.tοΌ What the hell are you moving? Do crabs walk? The pace distance is a little smaller, the cadence is a little faster, oops, I'll go, are you electrocuted? Broken step move, broken step move clearly do not understand??? β
β¦β¦
With Rodman's yelling, Tang Qian finished the morning training session.
The class was actually extremely boring, because it came and went, and Rodman just asked him to move, hold the position, and then keep moving in the triangle under the basket. It's a bit fun to do this kind of thing once, twice, or ten times, but when you do it hundreds, hundreds, or even thousands of times, it's no fun at all. However, during Tang Qian's training, he didn't say a word of complaint, and kept working hard.
After eating at noon, Rodman and Tang Qian returned to the training gym, and then did not change anything, and continued these extremely boring repetitive exercises. For three days in a row, there was no change at all, and it was repeated and repeated.
It wasn't until the fourth day that Tang Qian was a little dissatisfied, because looking at Rodman's appearance, it seemed that he had no intention of teaching him anything else, and this attitude made Tang Qian unhappy. During the lunch break, Tang Qian couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Rodman, how long will this kind of training last?" You're not going to let me do this kind of thing all summer long, are you? "What? Can't stand it anymore? Rodman said as he stuffed something into his mouth: "I can't stand it and say it directly, I won't force you." β
"It's not that you can't stand it, it's just that you have to tell me when it's a head, right?" Tang Qian continued to ask. "When is it a head?" Rodman smiled: "Then it depends on your talent, if you have good talent, it will come to an end soon, if you have bad talent, hehe, maybe it won't come to an end in an offseason." β
"What?" Tang Qian was a little "hairy", his eyes stared at Rodman and said, "You don't plan to fool me like this all the holidays, do you??? "Fooling?" Rodman picked the corner of his mouth and said, "Let me ask you, how many times have you shot baskets since you started playing basketball?" How many times have you been basketed? How many times have you dribbled the ball? β
Tang Qian was stunned for a moment and said, "How do I know this?" I can't count them. β
"That's it." Rodman said: "What I want you to do now is to make it impossible to count, and when your brain can't count it, your body will be able to count it." Tang Qian was stunned, and then said for a moment: "You mean, to shape my muscle memory and body memory?" β
"Bingo~" Rodman said, "You're not stupid yet. β
Although Rodman didn't explain much, Tang Qian's side had already completely understood, and then in the afternoon training, he didn't say a word of complaining nonsense. (To be continued.) )
