Chapter 60: Jeff Schwartz
Bai Xiaonian, who was sitting in the café, rubbed his hands a little nervously, and glanced at the door from time to time, Jeff Schwartz's invitation yesterday made him feel flattered until now.
Gently took a sip of the freshly ground coffee in front of him, let the bitterness melt in his mouth, and calmed down the restlessness in his heart, Bai Xiaonian's brain couldn't help but start thinking crankily...
"Why would Jeff, the super agent, notice himself? Even if his performance in the past few years has been quite good, he has definitely not reached the point of letting the famous Jeff come out in person..."
"Young man, it's not a good habit to let the elderly stand all the time!"
A somewhat familiar voice came from Bai Xiaonian's side, breaking the illusion he had just constructed for himself, and suddenly came back to his senses only to realize that he didn't know when a figure had stood beside him, staring at him with deep and admiring eyes.
"Hello, hello, are you Mr. Jeff Schwartz? You may be seated..."
Suddenly, our little white children's shoes were a little at a loss, he didn't expect the meeting between the two to unfold in such an awkward way.
Jeff didn't care about Bai Xiaonian's mistake and laughed out loud and said:
"Hahaha, Wood, don't be nervous, we actually met before today..."
Suddenly, Bai Xiaonian's mind was full of question marks, when did he intersect with this big guy?
Seeing the bewildered look of the little white children's shoes, Jeff Schwartz laughed again, this little guy really has no impression of himself at all.
adjusted his sitting posture, and then Jeff slowly took out a small book that was already a little yellowed from his chest pocket, and his wrinkled appearance looked very old, flipped through it with his hand and handed it to Bai Xiaonian, pouting and motioning him to look at the contents.
"On Saturday, July 28th, there was a young man named Wood on the plane back to China today, and in his eyes I saw the same spirit as Wang..."
Seeing this handwritten note, which was only a few strokes, Bai Xiaonian's memory gradually woke up, and he stared at Jeff Schwartz with wide eyes in surprise and said:
"It turned out to be you, how could you suddenly think of me as a little person after so many years?"
"No, no, no! Not suddenly, in fact, I noticed you 4 years ago, when my assistant told me that there was a very nice kid in the City of Angels, and I started to pay attention to you the moment I saw your profile. ”
Jeff Schwartz corrected Bai Xiaonian's mistake, and he was also in love with Bai Xiaonian, a young man, as soon as he heard that he needed an agent, he immediately called in person to sign this Asian talent.
"I would now like to hear what you think about your own future? You know, it's obviously impossible for a person who has no plan for his career to succeed in the NBA, don't you think Wood? ”
Without giving Bai Xiaonian a chance to speak, Jeff continued.
"Views? You mean my ideals? Bai Xiaonian sat up straight and looked directly into Jeff's eyes.
"Uh-huh! The same can be said. Jeff Schwartz nodded.
"Haha, I'm a little embarrassed but I still have to tell you the truth, I don't have any particular ideals that I want to achieve now, my dream used to be to enter the NBA, but obviously now this idea is about to become a reality, so Jeff I haven't figured out what I should do when I enter the league."
Geng Zhi Boy Bai Xiaonian directly said his true thoughts in his heart, and added:
"Actually, that's why I need to find an agent, I really need someone who can help me manage the contract, negotiate endorsements, and help me rent a house and buy a car..."
Jeff Schwartz looked at Bai Xiaonian with a black line, and even began to wonder if he had made a wrong decision this time, where was he looking for an agent! I just want to find a wet nurse!
"Listen to me Wood, I think your ceiling is much more than just getting into the NBA, I think you have what it takes to make a star player and even an All-Star..."
The reason why Jeff values Bai Xiaonian so much is because he deeply feels the infinite potential of Bai Xiaonian, of course, the potential he is talking about does not refer to physical talent in the usual sense, but the creativity of a ghost on the court.
"Well, Wood, I'm sure you'll go far with me for the rest of your career..."
Staring into Bai Xiaonian's eyes, Jeff tried to see something from his face, but he was disappointed to find that the little guy in front of him suddenly became deep, and he couldn't see what he was thinking in his heart at all, but he believed that his words could move Bai Xiaonian.
"Okay I'll admit, Jeff, you've touched me, and I wish us a great time to work together in the coming days."
Bai Xiaonian kindly stretched out his hand and shook hands with Jeff Schwartz cordially, and then Jeff took out the contract he had already drawn up and handed it to Bai Xiaonian, in his heart, Bai Xiaonian, the customer, was bound to win.
While flipping through the contract in his hand, Xiaobai kept nodding his head, and after reading the contract in his hand several times, Bai Xiaonian said with Jeff's puzzled eyes:
"Jeff, you're not a vampire, are you?"
After hearing Bai Xiaonian's words, Jeff Schwartz almost didn't fall off the sofa, because in order to show his sincerity, in this contract for Bai Xiaonian, he had already reduced the agent's commission to the minimum, and he almost didn't lose money, but I didn't expect this stinky boy to be satisfied, which of the two of them is the real vampire!
"Of course! It's a win-win partnership. Wood: I'm sure you're very familiar with contracts under the influence of your father, Pitter, and you see the commission I'm giving is very reasonable..."
"I'm not familiar with it, I don't understand what is written in it at all, where is the commission?"
Bai Xiaonian said with a blank face.
"Poof..."
Wiping his forehead, Jeff Schwartz resisted the urge to jump up and give Bai Xiaonian a kick, and his face was black until he saw Bai Xiaonian sign his name on the contract, and his face returned to smile.
After discussing this year's draft with Bai Xiaonian, Jeff Schwartz waved goodbye to Bai Xiaonian, and he had to go back to the office to sort out the specific information of this year's draft, so that he, a new customer, could have a wonderful start in the NBA...
After confirming his agent, Bai Xiaonian soon ushered in the third game of UCLA's March Madness, traveling from UCLA to Utah to challenge Brigham Young University.
As a world-renowned private school, Brigham Young University also has its own place in the NCAA, especially their team's shooting guard Jimmer Ferredette is a terrifying scoring machine, and now in his senior year, he will also participate in this year's NBA draft with Bai Xiaonian.
The day after the UCLA-University of Tennessee matchup, Gimmer Fredette scored 34 points to lead his team to an 89-67 win over Gonzaga University to reach the Sweet 16, Brigham Young's best result since 1981.
You must know that in the entire senior season, Jimmer Fredette averaged 35.3 minutes per game, contributing 28.8 points, 3.5 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.3 steals to the team, with an assist-to-turnover ratio of 1.2, leading Brigham Young University to a proud record of 20-1 in the regular season.
And this backcourt duel between Bai Xiaonian and Fredette has also become the focus of attention in this game...
