Chapter 107: A Trip to Miami (4)
"Hey. Luke? I'm David (David Falck). I asked about the contract you asked me about, when are you going to take a look? Said on the other end of the phone.
"Oh, so fast? Where is it? Luke asked.
"You're in Miami right now, right?" David asked.
"yes, we just finished the game, and we can rest for four days in a row." Luke replied.
"That's easy, tomorrow morning you wait for my call, it's in Miami, I'll bring you the contract to see, if you agree, sign it, if you don't agree, I'll help you find it again?" David said.
"Okay, no problem." Luke replied.
"Okay, that's it, don't go out tonight, I'll pick you up early tomorrow morning." David said.
"Okay, that's it. Good bye. Luke said.
"Goodbye." David hung up.
Luke hung up the phone and went back to the locker room, where he saw the group of brothers still there, arguing fiercely, "We're going to ...... tonight Drink, and then soak the beautiful girl by the way......"
Luke, on the other hand, silently packed his bags.
"Luke," Aaron shouted, "where are you going to play at night?"
"Me?" Luke said, "I'm not going, I'll have something to do tomorrow!" ”
"What's the matter," Reed, who was gossiping, moved, "Tell me, isn't it a girl, introduce me to meet you." ”
"What kind of girl is there, my current sister hasn't figured it out yet." Luke said.
"Then why don't you go? We're going to meet a lot of girls. Reed tempted.
"Forget it, I'm going to negotiate a contract with my agent tomorrow, he's coming to pick me up early tomorrow morning, and I'm going to have to recuperate tonight." Luke said.
"Well, Michael, don't interfere with him." Aaron grabbed Reed, "Making money is the most important thing for him, don't forget that this guy still owes everyone a meal." How can you invite everyone to dinner if you don't have money? ”
"Yes, you still owe us a meal? Ready for a long treat? Reed asked.
"Well, I'll invite you when I make money, you gluttons!" Luke scolded with a laugh.
"Someone's in for a treat again!" Reed said happily.
"Okay, I don't care about you, I'll go back to the hotel first, and you guys play slowly." Luke packed his bags and headed back to the hotel.
It was already past 11 p.m. after the game, but it was just the beginning of the night for most people, but Luke had already decided to go to bed.
"Sleep, tomorrow is another new day." Luke hypnotized himself.
Early the next morning, David Falck arrived in his General Motors.
"Hey, Luke got up so early." David said.
"It's not too early," Luke said, rubbing his hair, "and get up earlier if you're going to train!" Where to go now? ”
"Let's find a place to sit first." David said.
"You're familiar with this place, and you're up to the cracks." Luke said with a shrug.
"Okay, get in the car!" David started the car.
Found a café and sat down for two people. David took out a few documents from his leather bag and introduced them to Luke one by one: "This is a contract for Nike, Adidas, Reebok and Puma, and it's just a sneaker contract, no matter what else, if you want to sign other clothing contracts, this is not a breach of contract, of course you can also sign their clothes." ”
"What do you think?" Luke asked, looking at the contract above.
"I think you can try to sign Reebok's contract first, his contract is the shortest of the four, only two years, and the income is also good, 5 million, very good. I believe in your potential, and in a few years the contract will be even greater. David said.
"What about the others?" Luke continued to ask.
"In terms of clothing, you can ignore it for the time being, now your fame is not very big, brand clothing can't afford to be priced, and similarly, other endorsements are not suitable. But you can sign something else, such as this Pepsi advertisement, although Pepsi is not as famous as Coca-Cola now, but it is still very good, again, this contract is not long, only two years, I believe that after two years you will have a qualitative leap. David said.
"Well, it's very good, it's decided like this, and it's been a long time to sign the contract." Luke asked.
"You'll have to wait for this, I'm going to contact them, but it will be soon." David said. "And we're going to meet someone later."
"Who are you seeing?" Luke was a little curious.
"Guaranteed to surprise you." David smiled, "It's Pat Riley." ”
"What are you doing with him?" Luke was slightly annoyed, "Have you forgotten about Joe Smith's salary cap scandal?" How much did you charge him? Frame me like this! ”
"No, no, no, no, Luke is not what you think he is." David hastened to explain, "We're not Dan Fagan and Joe Smith's idiots. We're not going to do that. But are the benefits of knowing Pat Riley really great? ”
"How big is it and bigger than the Alliance?" Luke was still a little angry.
David smiled and shook his head and said, "Luke, you're too young to understand a lot of things. Do you think Pat Riley is just a general manager of the Heat? Pat Riley was also very successful outside of basketball, he was a famous American orator and a well-known fashion figure, and he was close friends with Michael Douglas, Giorgio Armani and others. Michael Douglas even confessed to copying Pat Riley's hairstyle in his Oscar-winning film Wall Street. Not to mention inside the stadium. The coach who was just promoted this year has spent time in many teams in the league, including the Los Angeles Lakers and the New York Knicks, and has connections that you can't imagine, even the league wants him to score three points. The players who have been involved with him have increased in value. This is what every player likes to see. Luke, don't you like it? ”
"That's true, but it's a sensitive time...... Luke continued.
"It's because I'm sensitive right now, so I'm going to touch it. Put pressure on the team. And it's just an ordinary meeting, and the meeting place is at Pat Riley's Miami house, don't be nervous. Besides, you really don't want me to say no, it's not a big deal, but I think it's an opportunity. David said.
Luke thought about it and still thought David's suggestion was good, so he took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll go see him, how long will it take?" ”
"Let's go right away." David got up, paid for his coffee and tip, and walked out of the café with Luke and headed straight for Pat Riley's Miami House.
