"Hello, I'm Bill Duffy," he said, a kind-looking white man who stretched out his hand and shook it with Mo Xi. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Many people are familiar with him, and many people are not familiar with him, this man is one of the future members of the "Y Team" and the best decision-maker at the time. Bill Duffy is just a small person at this time, and compared to the famous David Falck, the two are like mud.

Bill Duffy was the same school as Nash, Santa Clara University, Bill Duffy was the absolute workhorse at the time, and in his senior year, he had become the team's No. 1 star, the team's leading scorer, and was voted Santa Clara University's 1982 Athlete of the Year. In the summer of 1982, basketball rookies were eagerly awaiting the draft. Bill Duffy has a clear vision of his future, and while he is the team's leading scorer, he still has a lot to offer. After being drafted by the Nuggets in the fifth round, Bill Duffy knew that he was running the road, so he changed his approach and became a basketball agent.

In the early days of his company, life was extremely difficult, and only childhood friends Ronnie Lott and Bill Duffy, who were NFL stars at the time, signed to become his first customers. It wasn't until he signed his first real star, Antonio Davis, that things started to get better, and then he signed Portland guard Terrell Blanton, and this season he signed Steve Nash on the alumni, and his career was on the rise.

He and Mo Xi are in a similar situation, both of them were in a state of questioning early in their careers, and both have only recently begun to emerge, and it is impossible to tell who is more famous in their respective industries.

Both of them were excellent students in school, long-term thinking people, these two people get together, and they can talk about it very well, but some things are not just two people can talk about.

"First of all, I think you have to know that I'm not that tough and I have to change my current agent, even though he isn't doing well right now, I don't really need him right now, I signed a second-year contract with the Knicks, I could have started looking for a new agent in the year I had the team option, and I don't think the Knicks would have chosen not to exercise the team option if I was doing at that time," he said. ”

When Mo Xi spoke, Bill Duffy always had a kind smile on his face, and I have to say that Bill Duffy is a very charismatic person, and he can always make others have a good impression of him and believe in him.

After Mo Xi finished speaking, Bill Duffy said, "Of course, Mr. Mo, I understand your thoughts, so why don't you listen to my plans for you?" Of course, this will not interfere with your personal life and career choices, just so that you will not miss out on the realization of your own value. First of all, I want to congratulate you on making it to the finals, although it's a shame that you didn't win the championship in the end, but I think you're still young, aren't you? Reaching the Finals This is one of your current advantages, plus the Knicks against the Heat to play the Black Eight, this is your second advantage, and the third, naturally, is the game you played with the president this summer, although real basketball people understand that the gold content of that game is probably not as good as a high school league, but as a gimmick, it will undoubtedly make your status slightly raised, which will make you have high commercial value in the United States. The last point, which is actually the most important point, is your identity, your Chinese identity. ”

Mentioning this, Mo Xi was immediately very interested, the interview before the finals is said to have been flying all over the other side of the ocean, Mo Xi's name was known by hundreds of millions of people for the first time, because of the blood flowing in his body, he was very interested in the land where his ancestors lived, at that time he said to Director Zhang, it was not a joke to go back and see, he really wanted to see, but Mo Liyu also taught him a sentence, called returning home. And Stern has hinted to him many times that the alliance is about to open overseas markets, and his identity is a stepping stone. Mo Xi said, "Oh? Can I hear about your plans for this? "More than anything else, this part is undoubtedly more interesting to Moxi.

Bill Duffy secretly breathed a sigh of relief, although he is now on the rise, but there are not many players under his command, and there are no real big-name players, and there is only one young and potential Nash, fortunately, he used his connections in the league headquarters to roughly understand David Stern's overseas market plans for this Knicks supernova, and there is no doubt that the latter is also very interested in his destiny hometown, and his hard work is in the right place. Bill Duffy said: "The fact that this part is going to be a long-term plan is by no means something that can be considered right now. Bill Duffy is right, at this time China is still the mysterious East in people's mouths, everyone doesn't understand, the same way, the other side doesn't understand this side, Bill Duffy continued: "In this part, I think, we shouldn't do anything first, because we don't know what the reaction will be at that time, in my opinion, the best way is to use the big tree of the league, it is imperative for Stern to open up the overseas market, when the time comes, the international players, Or the immigrant players will definitely be pushed to the front of the stage by him as a bridge, but how can the league's overseas market not be our bridge? We can follow his development and open up our own path, and then, depending on the domestic situation, choose to endorse his brand or create a brand yourself. So my plan is to wait until the wind rises, and then take advantage of this wind to reach a certain height, and then start choosing our plan. ”

Bill Duffy's plan is very conservative, not at all as passionate as the average American person, and even in this plan, there is no subjective opportunity at all. But Mo Xi likes it very much, it is never advisable to be ambitious, and acting rashly in an unknown place cannot be called a risk, that is called looking for death, Bill Duffy is a person who is restrained enough, he knows how much he should do enough, without the greed of most agents.

Actually, this is because the compatibility of the two people is high enough, otherwise, it would be really difficult for the current Bill Duffy to win the mexi. You know, playing in a big city represents a huge business opportunity in itself. But it is precisely because of this that Mo Xi needs someone to put the brakes on him, not add fuel to the fire, and for a person who aspires to a championship, only victory is everything.

"And what about domestic?" Mo Xi continued, "What do you think here?" ”

Bill Duffy smiled mysteriously and said, "Actually, I also brought you a small gift this time. With that, Bill Duffy pulled out a stack of papers from his briefcase and handed them to Moxi.

Mo Xi looked at it carefully and smiled, this is a very interesting endorsement contract, which is unexpectedly interesting.

This contract comes from a big brand, Italian Fila. Fila has always advertised itself as a representative of art, a model of luxury, and has always been engaged in aristocratic sports, golf, tennis, fitness, yoga, running and skiing, etc., and there are few extremely confrontational projects, only recently began to gradually extend its hand to the United States, a country where aristocratic sports are extremely underdeveloped. Again, it was unfamiliar to many people until 1996, when Carla Ovibek, the captain of the women's soccer team, wore the Fila sneakers and won a gold medal at the 1996 Summer Olympics. And this year, Fila is a hit, and the professional baseball star of the United States has beaten Roger Marris's record of 61 home runs in a single season with 66 home runs in a single season, and it is Fila who endorses him. However, despite this, Fila's style is still not accepted by most of the people in the United States.

Originally, Fila was about to give up, but at this time, they received a set of photos, a photo of a young oriental boy, elegant, classical, with a traditional aristocratic temperament, but this young man also has a strange temperament from the street.

Bill Duffy said with an apologetic smile, "Sorry, borrowed a few photos from your past at the time. ”

's mother is also a person in the entertainment industry, and Mo Xi had to take some makeup photos in the past, but the effect was not bad, coupled with his outstanding height, many people hoped that he could embark on the road of male model at that time.

Mo Xi didn't mind this, he said, "That's nothing, but I hope I have to tell me in the future that I am very interested in this contract now, and you added the terms here?" ”

Bill Duffy smiled and said, "Yes. Apparently he was very happy with that part as well.

Mo Xi directly picked up the pen and signed it, handed it to Bill Duffy, and said: "Then, I wish us a happy cooperation, from now on, you are already my agent, Mr. Duffy." ”

The two shook hands with smiles.

So, what kind of contract is it? Later, some people called this type of contract "Victory Treaty", of course, some people simply called him "Murphy-Duffy Treaty", the player won more than 50% of the game, the prize money was $100,000, the win rate was more than 60%, the prize money was $300,000, and the payment was $5,000 per win, etc. Of course, with so many terms, the endorsement fee given by the other party is much less, only 4 million in three years, such a short time is not what Bill Duffy is fighting for, but Fila at this time is simply not optimistic about this market.
