Chapter 128: Li Ning's endorsement
The day after the Los Angeles Stars......
Don't think about it, Meng Xiaohao must have made headlines......
"The sophomore rookie kills the defending champion, and the 2019 strong rookie adds one more!"
Meng Xiaohao vaguely remembers that the last time he was on the front page was when he found his form last season, and further on, it was because of his poor performance and dominating the top of the black list for a long time and making headlines.
Meng Xiaohao hasn't been in the headlines for a long time, this feeling of looking back at the headlines is really great, Meng Xiaohao sighed, when he was in college before, it felt very troublesome to make a headline at every turn, and it felt good if he didn't make headlines, but now, it seems that he is not in the headlines, and he is still a little uncomfortable.
"Is this what a business alliance is called a change in a person's heart?" Meng Xiaohao smiled slightly, "It seems that we still have to keep our original intention!" Otherwise, it won't work! ”
At this time, Meng Xiaohao's phone rang, Meng Xiaohao picked up the phone and looked at the name on it......
"Edward?" Meng Xiaohao saw that it was his agent who called him. Edward's presence is becoming less and less now, except for being by his side during the game, Meng Xiaohao doesn't know what he is doing the rest of the time, but he also knows that it is nothing more than a matter of endorsement contract.
"Hey! Edward, what's the matter? Meng Xiaohao answered the phone.
"Xiaohao! I'll tell you something! "The relationship between Edward and Meng Xiaohao is very good now, and there is no so-called greeting on the phone, just say something directly.
"Say it! What's the matter? Meng Xiaohao asked, "It won't be a new endorsement, right?" ”
Edward smiled on the other end of the phone, "You're so good! Can you guess that? ”
Meng Xiaohao smiled bitterly twice, "I said, I don't think this kind of endorsement needs to be said on the phone, just say it on Facebook, why call in person?" ”
Because, in addition to Edward's endorsement of Gatorade, and Meng Xiaohao's own rejection of Adidas's endorsement accident, Edward's endorsement through negotiation is not a big company, before Meng Xiaohao also received a contract endorsement from Kia, but unfortunately, the money was not negotiated, and the contract was invalidated.
At this time, Edward's voice suddenly became mysterious, "This company has a lot of origins!" You might like oh no, you'll love it! ”
Meng Xiaohao was intrigued by Edward's words, "Let's hear it, what company?" ”
"Haven't you always wanted to endorse Chinese sports brands?" Edward actually went around in a circle and didn't tell Meng Xiaohao directly.
Meng Xiaohao smiled at this pass, but Meng Xiaohao also vaguely heard something, in his heart, he may have guessed nine times out of ten, although he didn't believe it, but that intuition became stronger and stronger.
"yes, what's wrong?"
"This time the company ......," Edward paused, "It's Li Ning!" ”
"I'm going?" Meng Xiaohao stood up from his seat all of a sudden, "You...... You said...... Li ning? Meng Xiaohao's voice was very trembling, and he was very excited now, which was the same as Gatorade's contract at that time.
Edward smiled, "Of course, Li Ning, your Chinese sports brand, a very powerful sports brand, you must know it, how about it?" Surprised, surprised? ”
Meng Xiaohao didn't know what to do, all this came so suddenly, he didn't even have any psychological preparation, and the big pie smashed over.
Li Ning is very famous among China's sports brands, and as the official shoe sponsor of the Chinese Men's Professional Basketball League, Li Ning is a big step above other sports brands in terms of status alone.
Although there are no players in the North American league to endorse Li Ning, in the European League, there are many big-name stars to endorse Li Ning, and even in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, Li Ning is also the shirt sponsor of the Chinese team, the Spanish team, the Serbian team, the Venezuelan team, the German team and the French team, and the sponsorship lineup is comparable to Nike.
"No matter how much money you give, I'll sign it!" Meng Xiaohao's sudden remark is enough to prove Meng Xiaohao's excitement to be able to endorse Li Ning.
Edward couldn't help but laugh loudly on the other end of the phone, "I'm talking about Xiaohao!" You're so cute, even if you sign it upside down? ”
This made Meng Xiaohao a little unsure of what to say, and he held back a sentence for a long time, "I don't think Li Ning will be like this, it's also a relatively large sports brand in the world!" ”
"That's what I said, of course Li Ning wouldn't do that!" Edward continued, "Then how many endorsement contracts do you think Li Ning will give you?" ”
Meng Xiaohao hesitated for a moment, "That...... A year? Five million dollars? ”
This is actually a number that Meng Xiaohao said a lot, because Meng Xiaohao was in a particularly poor state at the beginning of last season, so many brands are not willing to give Meng Xiaohao enough endorsement contracts, and Gatorade's contracts are already the most.
"Five million dollars?" Edward smiled, "You're thinking a little simple, huh?" ”
"That's less than five million?" Meng Xiaohao guessed that the price of his guess might be too high.
"The contract that Li Ning gave you is ......" Edward paused deliberately, "Fifty million dollars for five years!" ”
"Ah...... 50 million in five years...... Wait! What? 50 million in five years? Meng Xiaohao's reflex arc just now was indeed a bit long, but when he reacted, he was extremely surprised.
"Five years...... Million? That's $10 million a year, and after paying taxes, it's $5 million a year. Meng Xiaohao calculated how much money he could get, and after calculating, he was stupid in place, "Five million a year, this is the most contract I have got!" ”
Edward listened to Meng Xiaohao's voice, and he could hear it as soon as he heard it, Meng Xiaohao was stupid by this number, and then said, "It's okay, Li Ning also made a promise, if you play your due results after five years, then they will greatly increase their new contract offer." ”
Meng Xiaohao's hands holding the mobile phone began to tremble slightly......
"When will the contract be signed? When to shoot the cover? When to shoot commercials? When can I get my money? Meng Xiaohao was already stunned, and countless questions flew towards Edward.
"Oh my God, boy, you're out of the eye! Say yes and don't forget the original intention! To be honest, Edward was frightened by Meng Xiaohao's attitude, he was afraid that Meng Xiaohao would be too excited and cause his state to decline again, which would be a big trouble.
"Who wouldn't be thrilled to sign such a big contract? Aren't you excited? Rest assured! I'm not going to lose my form again, trust me and you! Meng Xiaohao knew what Edward was worried about, and felt that it was a reassurance to Edward.
Edward also knew that Meng Xiaohao would not say unfounded words, so he also nodded, "Okay, I believe you, I will tell you the specific time of signing the contract, now there are still some details of the contract that I have not discussed with the other side, and I will inform you as soon as there is any progress." ”
Meng Xiaohao didn't speak, Edward was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Trust me, I will try my best to get more benefits for you!" ”
Meng Xiaohao smiled, "I know, then come on!" ”
The call between the two sides has come to an end......
Meng Xiaohao got into the quilt headlong, all this was too sudden, which made Meng Xiaohao really unable to accept it at the first time, he needed to digest it and accept it.
"Li Ning's endorsement!" Meng Xiaohao muttered quietly, "Oh my God! It's Li Ning's endorsement! Meng Xiaohao's voice became louder and louder, "Great, great!" ”
Li Ning's endorsement represents that Meng Xiaohao has reached a new level, and his own sneakers, his own sneaker series, and even sports peripheral products will emerge in endlessly.
Meng Xiaohao has now taken another step in the direction of an international superstar.
