Chapter 196: The NBA is finally coming!
In July, the scorching sun in Yangcheng can make people peel off their skin. X
Walking out of the headquarters of Yuqun Group with Zhou Jian, Chen Zhi couldn't help but stretch out his hand to cover the sunlight above his head, the conversation in the office just now made him feel that Chu Yusheng was like the golden sunlight in the sky at this moment, it was so dazzling.
He really didn't expect Chu Yusheng's plan for the sports field to be so huge, it can be said that Yuqun Group has initially formed an industrial chain in the field of basketball.
Entering the field of sports equipment is the last link, after all, this part is the most profitable consumer terminal in the entire sports chain.
As a businessman, no matter how Chu Yusheng cultivates the basketball atmosphere in Yangcheng and builds Yangcheng into a basketball city, the ultimate goal is to bring more economic benefits to the fan base.
Of course, this is actually a virtuous circle of mutual promotion, and it has nothing to do with mercenary or profit-seeking.
However, what Chen Zhi didn't expect was that the amount of the contract that Chu Yusheng had just given him would be so huge.
Without playing in the NBA, he got a big contract with an annual salary of more than 20 million meters, which has surprised Chen Zhi.
Unexpectedly, in Chu Yusheng's eyes, Chen Zhi's commercial value was far higher than this annual salary!
Chen Zhi naturally wouldn't be too much money, otherwise he wouldn't have decisively given up the Chicago Bulls, the best choice in his heart, after receiving the Dallas Mavericks' top salary offer!
Chu Yusheng's business blueprint and huge contract made Chen Zhi excited.
According to the amount of this contract, which is already the standard for a superstar in the league, this is a price that a hook and a clover will never give.
It's just that the total amount of this contract issued by Chu Yusheng is huge, but there are a lot of additional conditions, which is simply dense, and if you want to fully get the full amount of this contract, you need to meet various conditions.
This is a typical contract with an incentive bonus, the amount of the basic guarantee is not too much and not too little, there are 20 million in the first year, that is, about 3 million meters of gold, but the reward is rich, but it is far more than the amount of protection several times.
And every year after that, the basic benefit amount will be increased according to Chen's performance in the previous season.
If Chen can finally achieve the important goals of the contract, then this contract will probably be one of the largest commercial endorsement contracts in NBA history, but Chen Zhi is not sure how much money he can get from this contract.
Even so, Chen had no reason to refuse the contract.
On top of dozens of floors, through the glass curtain wall of the office, Chu Yusheng, who was sitting in a wheelchair, looked at Chen Dao, who had already walked out of the building, at this distance, he was as small as an ant, but in Chu Yusheng's heart, the importance of Chen Zhi was extremely huge.
Li Xuedong was originally an important part of his plan, and it will probably take years before he can really grow. But Chen Zhi's appearance opened up all the links in his plan, and it was far beyond his expectations. Li Xuedong will still go according to the plan, but many of his plans can be carried out in advance.
Facing the phone in his hand, Chu Yusheng said confidently: "The contract has been finalized, the capital injection of Yuqun Group will be in place soon, and the technical team will step up its expansion, they are the foundation of the entire brand." ”
Listening to what the person on the other side said, after a while, Chu Yusheng said, "Price plan? Of course, price is always the most direct and sharp weapon in the market. Speaking of which, you have overestimated your brand image and value before, and even more overestimated the value of the technology itself, compared to hooks and clover, we must have a price advantage! However, after signing Chen Dao, the price gap with other domestic brands can gradually widen, which will help to enhance the brand image in China. ”
Chen Zhi doesn't understand Chu Yusheng's business war, and he doesn't particularly care about it, he just needs to know that he can get the endorsement fee, and the technical quality of the sneakers is really good enough.
After returning to Chen Jiatuan to visit the old man and wife, Chen Zhi soon returned to Yangcheng again.
Because the youth basketball training camp of Yuqun Group organized by the Basketball Division of Yuqun Group is about to open in Jinyang Sports Performing Arts Center.
On the same day, there will also be an endorsement contract signed with Lining Sports, which has been injected by Yuqun Group, and naturally there will be a grand press conference.
This summer, Chen Zhi will not be idle, he has to train himself, and at the same time, he also has to participate in the basketball training camp as the basketball ambassador of Yuqun Group.
The signing of Lining Sports and Chen Zhi caused another sensation in Huaxia, because the contract amount was too high.
Of course, for publicity purposes, the version they use externally is the total amount of endorsements that Chen Zhi can get after completing all the reward terms.
Other sports brands were dumbfounded, completely unexpecting Chen Zhi to reach a huge multi-year contract of up to 5 years so quickly.
After signing the contract, Chen Zhi naturally had to go to Yang University.
After losing the two cores of Chen Zhi and Li Xuedong, their strength has indeed been greatly damaged, and after a short period of rest, they have already entered the training state again, which is quite a bit of a time.
After a short vacation, Jiang Lanyue also regained her spirits.
This suddenly relieved Chen Zhi a lot, Jiang Lanyue's mental state has always been more concerned about him, and now he can finally rest assured.
In the days that followed, in addition to daily training and training camp activities, Chen continued to increase his understanding of the NBA, especially those teammates who were not familiar with the Dallas Mavericks.
Chen Zhi did not participate in the Rio Olympics in August, which caused many fans to ask, but soon the official of the Basketball Association quickly answered.
First of all, as a player outside the system, the Basketball Association is unable to restrain Chen Zhi, but the reason why Chen Zhi did not participate in the Olympic Games is that he did not accept the invitation.
Although Chen Zhi has the heart to compete for the Olympics for China, he can only wave the flag and shout on social media such as the scarf, but Huaxia basketball without Chen Zhi obviously can't go far in the Olympics.
Yi Jianlian, the first brother of today's national team, has played a very bright performance in the Olympics and is likely to return to the NBA, but it is still unknown whether he will be able to make the trip in the end.
Zhou Qi, a second-round pick selected by the Rockets, was very disappointed by Chen Zhi's performance in the Olympics, and he didn't have the slightest spirit of daring to fight, and he didn't know if he was injured or afraid that the injury would affect his chances of entering the NBA.
When Yi Jianlian tried to communicate, he even ridiculed each other, and immediately public opinion was in an uproar, which also made Chen Zhi lose some of his original good feelings.
Compared with Yao Ming, it is completely at the level of IQ and EQ, and it is difficult to expect him to achieve the same results as Yao Ming. probably didn't join the NBA this year as he wished, and the other undrafted pick got a contract with the highest salary, which really made him dizzy!
After participating in the Yao Foundation Charity Tournament held by Yao Ming, it was the end of August, and ten days later, after accompanying the old man and the old man to the Mid-Autumn Festival, Chen Zhi and Zhou Jian, who had resigned from the Yuqun Group, returned to Dallas again.
Chen's real NBA career is finally coming.
