Chapter 128: NIKE's Special Contract
The health course business of the club has just been launched, and the people of NIKE have come to negotiate endorsements immediately, which can really be described as a source of money, and this time it is really rich.
"Mr. Zhang Feng, hello, I'm Eden, the head of Nike's sneaker department, and these are my two assistants."
"Hello, please take a seat, everyone sit down" Zhang Feng beckoned.
Eden sat down and took out a stack of materials, "Mr. Zhang Feng, in fact, we have been here for a long time, but there were too many people here before, and we knew that you might not be busy, so we only came in now"
James leaned back on the sofa and crossed Erlang's legs, "Yes, so are we, I'm afraid of causing unnecessary trouble when I come in", Kobe Bryant also nodded.
"I don't take care of it, thank you, are you here to talk about the contract today?" Zhang Feng asked.
"Yes, I'm ready, now to begin?" After Eden finished speaking, he looked left and right.
Zhang Feng knew that Eden was afraid of many people, so he waved his hand and said: "Start now, they are all their own people, even if we can't talk today, they will keep it absolutely confidential, if something goes wrong, I will be responsible, Harry will close the door and temporarily suspend business."
Harry trotted to close the door, Eden looked at Rich Barrow and said with a confirmed look, "It's all your own people?" ”。
Rich Paul simply stood up and stretched out his hand to begin to introduce:
"Standing in front of you is Mr. Zhang Feng, the boyfriend of the king's boss's daughter, the partner of the NBA legend Kobe Bryant, the person who is admired by LeBron James, the firm executor of brother basketball, the owner of the huge Chinese market, and the owner of the health care hall that is now becoming popular."
After this introduction, people didn't react at first, but when they thought that it was the introduction of Ryoma's appearance in "Game of Thrones", everyone began to burst into laughter.
"To be serious, these people are all good friends of Zhang Feng, even Feng Yaoyao, Liu Ming, Wang Wei, Li Xiaoyuan and Zhang Feng, who he personally recruited, are also treated as good friends, don't worry" Rich Barrow pointed to Feng Yaoyao and the others and said.
Rich Paul's words have a clear purpose, first pointing out the relationship between Zhang Feng and An Jiali to show that Zhang Feng has great opportunities in the future, and then moving out Kobe and LeBron to show that both of them are optimistic about Zhang Feng, and then explaining that Zhang Feng is affectionate and righteous and personally manages, so as to show that Zhang Feng has a huge market base and huge social influence, just say that you NIKE is simply making a lot of money when you ask him to endorse.
Eden wiped the sweat from his forehead, "OK, OK, we are fully confident that nothing unpleasant will happen in this meeting, so let's start talking about the contract."
Speaking of the contract, LeBron and Kobe Bryant immediately sat up straight, as if to say: "The price is too low, we may get angry at any time", and the four of Harry also learned in a similar way, holding their hands on their chests, and standing behind Zhang Feng in a uniform manner.
In this way, a very interesting picture is formed, Zhang Feng sits in the middle, LeBron and Kobe are lined up on the left and right, and Harry is standing behind them, and An Jiali and Feng Yaoyao are preparing tea on the side, this scene looks like a bigwig-level negotiation scene.
Seeing this, Eden involuntarily wiped his sweat again, "The contract we offer is $60 million for 5 years."
After saying this, out of a negotiation strategy, Eden stopped, Rich Paul and the others looked at Zhang Feng, although Rich hoped that the more the better, but if the asking price was too high and it was not negotiated, it was not good, and now Zhang Feng's instructions were needed.
However, where does Zhang Feng know what the concept of 60 million is, he is recalling at this time: LeBron's first contract is 93 million for 7 years, and Durant is 60 million for 7 years, so calculated, I can still do 60 million in 5 years, after all, it is already higher than Durant's first contract, but the tax rate in California seems to be a bit high, forget it, so be it.
Thinking of the tax rate, Zhang Feng frowned slightly. Unexpectedly, Rich Paul thought that Zhang Feng was not satisfied with this contract, and immediately said:
"Your contract is so insincere, I think you'd better reconsider."
LeBron nodded to indicate that it was low, Kobe Bryant shook his head to indicate that it was indeed low, and some of the four Harry shook their heads and some nodded to indicate that they were low. An Jiali brought a few glasses of water, "Drink some drinks first and talk slowly, but this contract is really low"
Seeing this situation, Zhang Feng's words were blocked in his mouth: "Is it too low?" Then wait a little longer."
Seeing Zhang Feng pick up Coca-Cola, Rich Paul immediately said: "Let's say this to you, after Zhang Feng helped the New York police arrest the criminals, the price offered by Coca-Cola was 20% higher than the initial offer", Coca-Cola generally does not announce the endorsement fee, of course, Rich Paul knows how much it is, but he can't say that the person who can only tell NIKE has increased by 20%, and it is also implying that Zhang Feng's image is very good, the market potential is huge, and other companies have already done this, NIKE quickly follow suit, hurry up and raise the offer.
Eden wiped his sweat again and continued: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'm not finished."
"In addition to the 5-year offer of 60 million, we also provided a fierce clause, as long as Zhang Feng triggers the incentive clause, he can get more bonuses"
"Let's be specific," Zhang Feng was curious.
"To put it simply, this incentive clause is divided into the main part and the daily part, the main part refers to the large bonus when you achieve great achievements in the NBA, such as winning the regular season MVP, the best team, the best second team, being selected as an All-Star, the playoff rankings, the championship, etc."
"Wait" James interrupted, everyone looked at him curiously, James said: "The championship is exempt, although I am a friend of Zhang Feng, but as long as I am in Zhang Feng, I will not be able to win the championship."
At first, everyone thought that LeBron was too domineering and said this kind of thing, and then they thought that LeBron was too stingy and just set a clause, and finally everyone realized that LeBron was joking after finding that Kobe Bryant's face was embarrassed. Because Kobe Bryant once said, "As long as there is, LeBron will never want to win a championship"
Seeing everyone's reaction, LeBron burst out laughing, and then stretched out his hand through Zhang Feng to high-five Kobe, who was embarrassed but also happily stretched out to close.
"You go on, go on, don't stop," LeBron laughed so hard that he almost squirted out the drink he was drinking.
Eden rubbed his hands, he just thought that LeBron was going to refute him, "As long as you trigger these terms, we will give at least $5 million in bonuses, I don't know what you think?" ”。
"I don't think so, Zhang Feng will not be able to achieve good results in the Kings in the next few years, the West is too strong" Rich Paul rushed to say, but Kobe Bryant looked at Rich Paul and shook his head, which shows that Kobe is optimistic about this incentive clause.
"I think OK, Zhang Feng will definitely lead the Kings to the playoffs, it's easy to pick up a two-time lineup, and the All-Star is needless to say, can't you see the league's love for Zhang Feng's rookie?".
LeBron is talking about Adam Xiaohua's move of the Summer League Finals to MGM Sports for Zhang Feng, and it is almost clear that Adam Xiaohua praised Zhang Feng.
As soon as LeBron said this, everyone looked at Zhang Feng, as long as Zhang Feng won a big honor, he could get a reward of 5 million, and in 5 years, Zhang Feng could win at least 3 honors, so roughly calculated, it is equivalent to a 5-year 7500 contract, although the current price is much higher than in 2003, but it has far exceeded LeBron's original contract in comparison.
Zhang Feng nodded, "Okay, you can continue."
Eden saw Zhang Feng accept and continued: "Now I want to say that the most special part of the contract provided by NIKE this time is the daily reward part."
