Chapter 47: Recess
After the rookie makeup day, Tang Wenlong passed the physical examination of the 76ers.
Then he met with the general manager of the 76ers, and after a few small talks, the general manager of the 76ers, Ed Stefanski, took out two contracts that had been prepared for a long time from his pocket.
"This is a guaranteed contract set in full accordance with NBA standards, with a contract of 2+1+1 for a total price of $21.52 million, and the team option for the next two years." Stefanski gave a brief introduction to Tang Wenlong.
Although Tang Wenlong had long known that he would get a guaranteed contract when he entered the NBA, he didn't expect to be able to get such a lucrative contract as a rookie, he was really taken aback, and subconsciously started the exchange rate conversion in his mind, 20 million US dollars, it is already hundreds of millions of yuan
He took the contract from Stephašci and flipped through it carefully.
"In the first year, it was 4.77 million." Joe Thomas, the agent on the side, gave Tang Wenlong a simple explanation, he is extremely good at this kind of contract analysis, and he immediately grasped the key point of the contract, Tang Wenlong followed his fingers and quickly browsed the entire contract.
ED-Stefanski, who was rocking in the rocking chair behind the desk, looked at Tang Wenlong seriously, with a smile on his face, and secretly thought that this was the biggest gamble he had ever made!
But after thinking about it, he felt that it was wrong, that the group of people in the Nets were crazy.
After half a ring, Tang Wenlong closed the contract and smiled.
"Mr. Stevaski, I've read the entire contract."
Stephaus said: "Then in that case, let's sign the name." ”
Tang Wenlong nodded, then picked up the black signature pen and signed his name on the contract.
"Welcome to the 76ers!" Stefan looked at Tang Wenlong and signed, and then Huo Ran stood up from behind the table and stretched out his arm to Tang Wenlong with a smile.
Tang Wenlong immediately stood up in response, and the two of them clasped their big hands tightly.
"After that, there will be media interviews at 3 p.m., and we have a small official press conference. Well, Doug [the head coach] will be there and then we'll do a simple welcome party for you, so be sure to be on time. Stefanski said.
Tang Wenlong nodded yes, indicating understanding.
"By the way, are you going to play in this year's Summer League?" Stephański asked.
Tang Wenlong was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Joe Thomas, he was a little puzzled why the general manager would ask this, and he was a little confused.
As if to see Tang Wenlong's puzzlement, Stefanschi patiently explained: "The summer league is a game for every team to evaluate newcomers and hone some players with development potential. As the name suggests, it is held every summer, mainly some free agents who want to enter the league, some fringe players of the current team and some rookies participate, of course, the head coach of the team will definitely not lead the team, we will send assistant coaches. ”
Tang Wenlong shrugged his shoulders and asked, "So, rookies will go to the competition?" ”
"And not all." Stefanschi laughed: "College players like you who have just played a full year and have been selected with a high pick rarely participate. So my advice is that you don't have to play in summer league either, and when the team reports on the training camp in October, you can play in the preseason. ”
Tang Wenlong suddenly accepted the general manager's suggestion.
Joe Thomas, who was on the sidelines, immediately instructed: "So as soon as the media asks you about whether to participate in the summer league in the afternoon, you can just reply in the negative, which is normal." ”
Tang Wenlong nodded like a baby, but in fact, he was thinking about what he was doing in July, August, and September?
A few days later, Tang Wenlong quietly left Philadelphia with a backpack, a huge suitcase in his hand, and sunglasses.
He departed from Philadelphia International Airport and flew non-stop to Shanghai after a short stop in Los Angeles.
At the same time, many domestic sports media have sent international reporters to Philadelphia, USA, one is to establish a good cooperative relationship with the 76ers, and the other is to see if they can find Tang Wenlong and get the latest information and news points.
No one knew that Tang Wenlong was already on the trigger to return to China, except for his parents and Fang Chuxia.
After flying for more than ten hours, Tang Wenlong had the same jet lag, day and night reversed, and he didn't know how long he had been awake and how long he had been asleep, but he felt that even with his athlete's physical fitness, he was a little soft.
Wearing sunglasses and facing the early morning sun, he bent over and walked out of the Airbus cabin.
The sky of the magic capital is clean, the pale white clouds flow with a trace of red glow under the sun, and the air seems to be floating with a pure breath, which belongs to the freshness of the morning of the day!
Tang Wenlong took a deep breath, this is the breath that belongs to the motherland, this land that gave birth to him.
The sound of pedestrians walking in his ears was heard, and the transmission to the central nervous system was the mother tongue that he had not heard for a long time, and here were compatriots with the same skin color and hair color as him, and he realized for the first time that his body was a Chinese imprint that would never be dispersed, and Chinese was the best language under the sky!
Pudong Airport terminal, the entrance of international flights.
At this time, the sky was just dawning, and the people who came to pick up the plane were scattered, and even Zhao Fei, who was an airport staff, was a little bored, yawning, and trying to open his eyes.
Suddenly, Zhao Fei's eyes lit up.
I don't know when a beautiful girl appeared at the entrance of the passage.
Zhao Airport has worked for many years, I don't know how many strange flowers and celebrities he has seen, and he has even seen a lot of celebrities from all walks of life, claiming to be 24K krypton gold dog eyes, reading all the beauties in the world. But even so, after seeing this beautiful girl, he couldn't help but look at it a few more times, and the girl's pure temperament and beautiful face left a deep impression on him.
This must be waiting for someone! From the girl's constant look, Zhao Fei guessed.
The girl was Fang Chuxia, her face was a little shy and crimson at the moment, and she was a little shy and happy, she didn't know that one day she would be so bold and leap so far alone to find a boy. However, if Wen Long knew that I was waiting for him here, an intoxicating smile appeared on her face, and it seemed that her mind had made up some scenes.
As soon as Tang Wenlong stepped down the escalator, his superiority in stature was reflected, and his gaze looked far away.
After a few steps, he suddenly saw something, and his face showed a look of shock, and then he was a little suspicious.
No, how did she come!
He secretly lifted his glasses to his hair, took a few quick steps, and narrowed the focus to determine that it was the person he had been thinking about day and night!
Tang Wenlong's face showed a look of ecstasy, and then he suddenly remembered something, and before the girl could find herself, she suddenly bent down and followed the many travelers in front of her.
Fang Chuxia raised his hand and looked at his watch, searching for another wave of international travelers.
"Strange, why haven't you come yet?" Fang Chuxia looked up at the international flights that had arrived on the big screen again, and confirmed that Tang Wenlong's flight should have arrived.
Suddenly, Fang Chuxia felt a warm breath enveloping him, and then he was hugged in his arms like a doll.
"Ah~" She was startled, and subconsciously wanted to shout.
"Early summer, why are you here!" Tang Wenlong's happy voice came from his ears, Fang Chuxia's tense nerves relaxed, and the whole person instantly became paralyzed, and he couldn't lift any strength anymore.
"You, why did you pop up all of a sudden!" Fang Chuxia's face was red.
Tang Wenlong learned her tone and laughed: "I, why can't I come out, aren't you just waiting for me?" "Who is waiting for you, I" Fang Chuxia raised his head and said with a mouthful.
Tang Wenlong also lowered his head at this time, the eyes of the two people converged, looking at each other's clear faces, as if they were talking without words, telling the past of the two people, telling the secrets that belonged to the two of them, and telling the love and sweetness in their hearts. "Hmm~~"
Tang Wenlong's boldness was still above Fang Chuxia, and this man suddenly lowered his head and kissed her on the lips strongly.
Her beautiful pearl-like eyes instantly dilated, and in an instant her body stiffened, her ears buzzed, and her mind went blank, and she couldn't think anymore.
For a long time, the lips parted.
Fang Chuxia's ears were red, and his cheeks were crimson, delicate and delicate. "Why do we seem to be very familiar, are we very familiar?" Fang Chuxia buried his head in Tang Wenlong's arms, not daring to look at Tang Wenlong's eyes again.
Tang Wenlong retorted: "What is this, aren't we familiar with it?" If you don't know each other, will someone stay on the phone for two hours every day? “
Fang Chuxia said: "But we don't seem to have met a few times, right?" “
Tang Wenlong said: "Video meeting is not considered a meeting? “
Fang Chuxia: "But I still feel very strange, are we online dating and long-distance relationships?" “
Tang Wenlong laughed excitedly: "Oh~~ You finally admit that you are my girlfriend!" "Did you say it yourself in the media?"
PS: Relax and play in the NBA right away!
