Chapter 2 Busy offseason begins
Jonny checked the rest of the system and retired from the system after a long time, he was not ready to quit, but the phone kept ringing and Jonny had to opt out. ββ
Jimmy Adams' phone, Jonny pressed the answer button: "Jimmy." β
"Jonny, where are you now?" Jimmy Adams didn't talk nonsense either, and asked directly.
"Me? In Orlando. β
"Okay then, two things, first of all, I helped you get a few advertising contracts, and I'll go over tomorrow to tell you the details; Also, the general manager of the Magic called me, and he asked you to go to the team the day after tomorrow, and they had something to announce. β
"Things? What's up? "There's something strange about Jonny.
"I don't know, they didn't say." Jimmy Adams said lightly, but Johnny was a little speechless, but it wasn't a big deal, and Johnny didn't care.
The Magic is out, and I think the management is going to be busy with the draft conference, although the Magic does not have any top draft picks this season, but it still needs to be done, the press conference is going to be held, and the training camp is going to be held, and Jonny estimates that this is the case.
And the advertising contract that Jimmy Adams said is what Jonny is looking forward to, after all, there is real money to take, and now Jonny is most lacking money, Nike's 1600w he is about to get all of it, and he has also got the money for a few small advertisements made some time ago, but those small ads can only be regarded as pocket money for Jonny, only the 1600w is the big head, Jonny is going to use the money to buy a mansion in Orlando, and then change to a luxury car, and now Jonny hasn't even bought a car.
Thinking about all this, Jonny looked at the trophies he had haphazardly placed in the cupboard in his room, the four trophies of the best rookie, All-Star Game MVP, three-point king, and Rookie Challenge MVP, and Jonny felt that he still needed a trophy room. This is what he remembered from the honor showroom at the Amway Center in Orlando, although he only had two trophies, but the honor showroom at the Amway Center in Orlando was not much better, only one Eastern Championship trophy, and the rest were all photos.
And at the thought of the photo, Jonny slapped his thigh. The Magic can put pictures, and so can he.
Jonny immediately remembered several photos of himself that had been hyped by the media before, one was the one at North Lawrence High School announcing his participation in the NBA draft, and the photo with David Stern at the draft, followed by the official NBA debut photo, and a few photos of the free throw line jumping dunk.
Of course, the latest hyped photo of the Eastern Conference Finals, the one in which Michael Jordan and Scott Pippen defended Jonny together, although Jonny was a little unwilling to play that game. However, this photo was hyped by the media as a person against the height of the historical legend combination, and Johnny naturally wanted to collect it, thinking of this, Johnny felt that tomorrow Jimmy Adams would come, and he would have to give him the task of finding these photos.
The next day, Jimmy Adams hurried over, took a sip of water in Jonny's rented apartment, and pulled out three contracts and put them in front of Jonny.
"Originally, there were a lot of endorsement contracts. But most of them I don't think are suitable, or the price is too low. I pushed it directly, these three copies, you can choose it. β
Jonny watched them one by one, and Frank Gardner, the lawyer who came with Jimmy Adams, was also on the side to help explain.
"This is a star card endorsement, there are two copies, both of which are big companies in the star card industry. Most NBA players sign this endorsement, but the contracts come and go, one is a contract with TOPPS and the other is a contract with Upperdeck, but I recommend a contract with the former TOPPS. Because they are the big guys in the industry. β
"Okay, then topps, but how much can they give?" Jonny asked, taking a sip of the coffee he had just brought to Jimmy Adams.
"This endorsement is not high, after all, it is mutually beneficial, so he is a cash plus commission model, the specific terms are very complicated, you can look here, anyway, it depends on how much your star card sells." Frank Gardner flipped to the last page and pointed to a spot.
Jonny nodded, he understood, this star card doesn't make much money, but this endorsement is conducive to the accumulation of his fans, which is mutually beneficial, and most NBA players will sign this endorsement.
"Look at this again, Coca-Cola's Asian endorsement contract, your skin color has helped you a lot, 1200w for 5 years, this price is very high, even higher than Michael."
"Taller than Michael Jordan?" Jonny was immediately interested.
"Yes." Frank Gardner replied helplessly.
"Signed!"
"Okay." Frank Gardner was even more helpless.
"The last one, the endorsement contract given to you by General Motors in the United States, this contract has no cash endorsement remuneration, but they will let you choose a luxury car worth about 10 million from their major car series, I don't think you have a car yet, so this contract can also be followed, and if you want to buy a car in GM's car series in the future, there will be discounts."
"Oh? Then sign it too, right? "Jonny is more willing to hear it, just shoot an advertisement, you can get a luxury car, why not?
"So, that means we need to sign three contracts, and I'll arrange the time for you, and of course, there are two commercials, and you need to take the time." Frank Gardner didn't expect to convince Johnny so easily, he smiled slightly, and began to arrange Johnny's next trip.
Jonny let out an "oh" and said, "So busy?" β
"That's, you're going to make money!" Jimmy Adams smiled and said. Then, as if remembering something, he took out another contract: "By the way, Jonny, I see that you usually like to play games, and here is an endorsement contract from a game company, but the price is too low"
"Game?!" Before Jimmy Adams could finish speaking, Jonny snatched the endorsement contract and looked at the company's name.
"It's not Blizzard!" Jonny was suddenly a little disappointed, if Jonny in his previous life was an otaku and he didn't know anything, then Jonny knew the most about the game company, he knew that Riot had not yet appeared, he knew that Blizzard was going to launch the Warcraft that swept the world soon, and he even knew that the game he played before he crossed over, the designer of League of Legends was Sheep Knife.
However, when Jonny found out that the name on this contract was not Blizzard, he was disappointed, what kind of good company could it be if it wasn't Blizzard? Jonny was instantly disinterested.
"Color GA Company, NBA-LIVE Game Endorsement Contract."
βnbaliveοΌβ Jonny suddenly felt something familiar, he thought about it carefully, and then blurted out, "This is an NBA game?" β
"That's right, Jonny, how about the NBA game? Sega is the world's largest game company, and Japan is the only game company that can compete with Nintendo. Jimmy Adams smiled and said.
"Japan's? That doesn't sign? Hey, wait, talk to them. Jonny was just about to sign it, then he thought about it and decided to talk about it, he thought about it and thought that it was not bad to make money from Little Japan, as long as Little Japan made more money.
Jonny looked at the endorsement contracts in front of him, except for the topps contract that doesn't need to shoot any commercials, the others need Jonny to shoot commercials, it can be said that this offseason, Jonny is busy.
