Chapter 109: The bowl is full

Talham are almost certain that the pair will have an easier time coming out on top. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Old Bass agreed to the offer without much thought, and although they needed some money, even a fool knew what to do compared to what they could get in return.

This can be regarded as a kind of compensation for Kobe, Tellham intends to do so.

Sure enough, Kobe's popularity rose very quickly, his endorsement contracts came up one after another, and Tony, as one of the twin stars, his exposure has also been greatly improved, and he has received a lot of endorsement contracts not long after the new season started.

Tellum has been busy dealing with these two young masters recently, although he can extract 20% of the commission when he negotiates a commercial endorsement contract, but Tellham is still very professional.

He is very cautious about these overwhelming advertising contracts, and he does not accept everything, he knows that it is better to have less than to overuse, if he lets Tony's big and small contracts continue, whether good or bad, if something happens in the future, it will be a big blow to Tony and Kobe's reputation.

After some research, he helped Tony pick out two contracts to choose from, one in the beverage industry and the other in the automotive industry, where Coca-Cola and PepsiCo both threw olive branches to Tony.

Coca-Cola has always been the leader of the beverage industry, their senior management is very strategic, they believe that Nicky will become the next superstar, so the contract for Tony is also very lucrative, 6 years 78 million, such an endorsement contract of tens of millions is undoubtedly very tempting at this time, but Durham did not immediately agree to Coca-Cola after expressing his gratitude to the company.

He turned to PepsiCo's top management, Pepsi doesn't seem willing to offer a big contract like Coca-Cola, they don't dare to bet on Tony, they prefer to throw a big contract to the star-studded Kobe Bryant, but they are also willing to offer Tony an offer of 30 million for 3 years.

After negotiation with Tony, Durham rejected Coca-Cola, which had a relatively high amount, and chose PepsiCo instead.

While PepsiCo doesn't offer too much, their contracts are more flexible.

Tellham's thinking is very forward-looking, he has always believed that in today's fast-growing society, only by maintaining the flexibility of his contract at all times, and keeping himself in a state of freedom at all times, can he win greater benefits, and his concept is diametrically opposed to the concept that other agents now talk about the bigger the contract for the player, the longer the better.

Three years is long enough, and Durham believes that by the time it comes to three years, Tony's value will reach a terrifying point.

The other contract negotiated by Durham for Tony is the endorsement contract of the British car manufacturer Land Rover, and the competition with Land Rover is the American local brand Ford Motor, Ford seems to have figured out Durham's character, they gave Tony a 3-year 60 million contract, which is their limit, they are very confident that they can get Tony, a new star, after all, Tony's car is also Ford brand, and this price can be said to be sky-high for an NBA sophomore rookie.

However, Land Rover is not far behind, and they have a three-year, 63 million contract, which is 3 million more than Ford.

Although the three million does not seem like a lot, you must know that Kobe's rookie contract is more than three million for three years.

In the case of suppressed prices, Ford can only play the local sentiment card, and they moved out of the set of supporting local brands in the hope of encircling Tony, but Durham does not eat this set.

Tum considered that Land Rover was mainly an off-road vehicle, and Tony's size was more suitable for this rugged and unrestrained style, which was more helpful for Tony's image, and Ford, even if they pulled their local feelings to the Revolutionary War, so what?

Signed a contract with Land Rover, even Tony, who has gradually begun to be numb, can't believe his eyes, recently his worldview has been refreshed very quickly, a few months ago signed a contract of 10 million Tony felt a little shocked, and not long after, another 20 million came.

Tony felt that he wanted to kiss Fulm the face.

The two days went by quickly, and after Tony settled the contract issue, he basically put his energy into training, and he spent his free time with Jessica.

The two are now past the stage of passionate love, and there is already some tacit understanding between them, which makes both young people feel very comfortable.

On the evening of November 7, the Forum Arena in Los Angeles.

Although the Bass family has raised the price of the team's tickets quite a bit, which has caused a lot of complaints, the stadium is still full.

By the time Tony and the others entered, the Knicks were already warming up in the arena, especially when they were silently practicing 45° shooting on the board, his expression was very serious, and the noise around him could not affect his shooting at all.

The Lakers players also began to warm up before the game, Tony tried to shoot two three-pointers, hit one, he laughed and talked with Kobe Bryant for a while, Kobe Bryant also raised his hand to shoot a three-pointer, but Tony rushed directly to catch him before the basketball fell to the basket.

“FUCK!” Kobe Bryant scolded, but his face was full of smiles.

Although the referee signaled, the warm-up of the two sides was over, and the game was about to begin, entering the jump ball stage.

By the time the two sides were in position, Ewing and Tony were also starting to get a little excited.

"Boy, be careful not to up." Ewing had a strange smile on his orangutan-like face. "You're going to need diapers then."

"Huh." Tony just laughed at Ewing's trash talk, and then he immediately shot back: "Old man, go back to your nursing home, don't let me fall apart when the time comes!" ”

......

The referee gave the two time to trash-talk, after all, both are the top centers in the league, and they have that privilege.

After Ewing and Tony finished their trash talk, the referee threw the ball into the air and then moved off the pitch, with Tony and Ewing jumping at the same time.

Ewing had a good jump, but he struggled to beat Tony last season, not to mention that he was a year older now.

Tony didn't have too hard to win the jump ball.

Fisher got the ball and he slowly pushed through the half.
