Chapter 449: Victory Parade, Negotiation with the Hornets
After a season of hard work, the Hornets finally won the championship this season.
This caused an all-night throughout New Orleans.
There are even some security issues that have arisen...... Because it was too carnival, there were some problems for a while.
But these are also small episodes.
The highlight is tomorrow.
After Zhong Yu made a phone call to Zhong Guoxiao, he forced himself to sleep as soon as possible, after all, he still has something to do tomorrow!
Although the season is over and he is about to start the offseason, Jongwook will never rest because of this.
He's still busy with a lot of things in the offseason.
And tomorrow, the Hornets will have a championship parade in New Orleans, which is a feast he must attend, and without him, the Hornets parade will certainly not be effective enough.
Zhong Yu must also cultivate his spirit for tomorrow's things.
Day 2!
This city, which had lost sleep last night, is still in good spirits today!
300,000 Wasps-clad fans took to the streets of New Orleans! Today is New Orleans Carnival Day, and it's the most talked-about person in all of New Orleans.
Most of them were wearing the Hornets' home T-shirts, so when you looked from above, you could see a field of white, white as far as the eye could see.
And the chests of the fans are all the class bees that make people feel fierce.
Today, the sky is beautiful, the sky is cloudless, and the sun is shining hotly on the whole ground.
New Orleans is about to go into a carnival!
The victory celebration float has been launched. Today, for this championship parade, the Hornets specially prepared two floats, as well as 16 convertibles and 4 large trucks!
300,000 fans. All at once, the floats were surrounded by water.
All the fans seem to have become devout believers in worship, and everyone carries their own pious hopes. Go and look at a few people on the float who cheered them excitedly.
In the center of the float is the championship T-shirt. Jongwook and Paul with championship baseball caps on their heads!
The two men held a championship trophy in their hands, and beside them, a huge poster made of the Hornets flag!
Seeing the two people on the float, the cheers of the 300,000 fans all shouted.
The whole city, the whole horizon, was in the cheers of the 300,000 fans, and the wind echoed like the wind.
Finally it keeps piling up. A howl that shook the horizon was formed.
And Zhong Yu stood at the top of the float, enjoying the crazy cheers of so many people, and the pride that instantly rose when he thought that he was the focus of it.
Today, they are all the most dazzling people!
"Zhong Yu! Zhong Yu! Zhong Yu! The cheers of the 300,000 fans rushed into people's eardrums, almost a crazy roar that made people low-grade. Zhong Yu felt that his ears were a little numb.
Everybody's going crazy!
It seems that there are only a few people left in the whole world.
Jongwook cheered as he held the championship trophy and enjoyed the screams of the fans and the shutter of the camera's constant press as the reporters kept pressing.
Today belongs to the Hornets, and today's glory belongs to the Hornets!
Zhong Yu opened his hands. At this moment, standing on the float, standing in direct sunlight, next to him is the golden championship trophy, and behind him is the giant Hornets flag!
At this moment, he was like a proud and wealthy king......
The light of the world seems to be accepted by him.
…………
"It's really handsome!"
"So handsome!" Some fans were amazed when they saw the photos.
Especially those nymphomaniac paper fans!
Seeing this photo, I was naturally amazed. …,
This time, winning the championship, the Hornets ushered in the highest peak in team history.
After the championship parade, the Hornets players started to get busy again, and many players also got a lot more contracts because they stayed with Jongwook and Paul, because they got this championship.
However, on the evening of the championship parade, everyone still had dinner together.
Everyone's wine was almost drunk, Zhong Yu brought the set of kung fu in the country, and frequently toasted and made all kinds of excuses, making this group of people staggered, in fact, he himself made enough preparations before drinking...... When drinking, I will quietly pour out the wine, which is very obscene.
So, Chandler and the others were all put down by Zhong Yu......
Zhong Yu himself was in good spirits, with a lewd smile on his face.
"Damn it...... You're a great drinker......" West said in a daze, "I've heard before that Chinese drink a lot of alcohol and often like to drink...... But I didn't expect you to have such a good amount of wine......"
Zhong Yu laughed obscenely next to him.
Paul was also one of the people who was poured down by Zhong Yu, at this time, he suddenly stood up, but a little shaky, and then put his arm around Zhong Yu's shoulder, and then suddenly said, "Man...... The season is over! We got the overall win...... Have you ever wondered how you should spend the rest of your career? ”
Zhong Yu looked at Paul's drunken appearance and said, "Chris! You're drunk! ”
"I'm not ...... drunk" Paul suddenly patted him on the shoulder and said, "Seriously, I want to it with you!" Create a glory that many people can't imagine, but you are a natural king, and I don't think I can become a second-in-command of the team now......"
This sentence suddenly aroused a lot of thoughts in Zhong Yu's heart...... Even let him not know what to say for a while.
"Chris, you've really drunk too much." Zhong Yu didn't know what to say, so he quickly patted him on the shoulder.
"No...... I really didn't drink much! Paul replied, "How should this kind of thing be solved?" I want to fight with you, brother...... But why do you want to be so good? ”
In this moment. It was pitch black outside the window, and the thick night slammed down from the sky.
There is no room for retreat, and there is no room for retreat.
The lights shuttled and cruised in the dark gaps, and Zhong Yu was for a while. I don't even know how to answer.
"Okay...... Chris, you're really drunk...... I really don't understand your North Carolina dialect, and it was already difficult for me to understand English. It would be hard for me to understand your dialect again. Zhong Yu hurriedly said.
"All right......," Paul muttered, as he was about to fall asleep on the table.
In fact, he just spoke relatively pure English...... What North Carolina dialect is bellish nonsense. Paul: Their dialect was a little hard to understand, but he still understood it.
He just didn't know how to answer......
It's really exciting to win the championship with your teammates and with everyone.
It's also a lot of fun.
However, as the new season begins, there are many more things to think about. First and foremost, the question of where the new season will go.
He has now fulfilled his 1+1 contract and will start new negotiations.
Because of the Arenas clause of the alliance, he was within the next few years. There will be certain restrictions on the contract, but in the third year after him, which is the fifth year of his career, this restriction will disappear.
And the Hornets ......
Seriously, he's used to the team and loves the city. …,
And now he has a championship ring with his teammates......
But that doesn't mean he's going to stay with the Hornets...... Although deep down, he is very interested in this team. It's also very emotional. But...... Sometimes, he really knew that he shouldn't stay with the Hornets because of Paul and his status. After all, there was still a conflict......
Although he himself did not want to think about those aspects.
But things are constantly coming to light.
Especially after Paul returned from injury, he was used to Zhong Yu, who had become the boss of the team before, and there were indeed a lot of unaccustomed things. But these are all brothers after all, and they can all be overcome.
But Zhong Yu is also a high-minded and arrogant person after all...... He also wants to work hard with his own team...... Otherwise, I'm too sorry for the golden finger that God gave me.
Looking at the people sleeping on their stomachs at a table, Zhong Yu's eyes flickered for a while, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
…………
The next day, Jongwook was also ready to go to Los Angeles......
One more day with his teammates, he's going to Los Angeles.
Los Angeles has women waiting for him, and he will stay in Los Angeles for a long time. But he can't go for the time being...... Because Pelinka's call has already arrived.
"The Hornets want to talk to me here?" Zhong Yu said into the phone, "It's okay...... Seriously, though, I'm going to leave it all to you! Because I don't really like face-to-face negotiations with them...... After all, this is my old team. ”
Pelinka only thought about it for a moment to know what Jongwook meant - he still had feelings for this team, but it was likely that he was not content to stay on this team anymore.
At that moment, he said, "I know a little bit about you...... However, I have to tell you, Zhong Yu, the NBA is a business league! It's a deal! It's a game for some money! We have to survive in it, and we have to get used to the rules of the game, the way they think about problems and do things. ”
"I see." Zhong Yu snorted, and then said, "I'll go with you to participate in this negotiation later, to be honest, my current attitude is mainly that I hope to have a bigger city, or be able to leave here." ”
"It's also the best option for you." Pelinka said: "At the moment, there are at least 25 teams that are interested in you, and there are at least 11 of them who are sincere enough...... You can choose between these 11 teams! ”
Zhong Yu snorted: "Okay, I'll have to worry about you more in the future!" You know, I can listen to you more of a deal. ”
Pelinka: "Thank you for your trust, then we'll see you later." "I'll see you later." ”
――――――
Jong-wook, Pelinka and the Hornets executives sat together.
This negotiation has begun!
"Sir, if you still have any objections to this price, we can actually increase it." -- Speaking is the Hornets' contract negotiator, Dick.
Pelinka glanced at Zhong Yu, and Zhong Yu was noncommittal in his eyes.
The Hornets currently offer Zhong Yu a contract extension of 3 years, and it is a 2+1 contract, and Zhong Yu's salary for the first two years is $5 million per year.
In the third year, it was Zhong Yu who could fulfill the player option and be able to jump out of the contract in advance, and the salary in the third year was 18.79 million yuan...... It's the maximum salary.
It's obvious...... It is impossible for Zhongyu to accept such a price.
Although it is said that the salary he can receive will be reduced due to the restrictions of Arenas, the price is too low......
Pelinka pushed her glasses and said, "There's no way we're going to accept that price." You should look at the value of Zhong Yu now, behind him, there is a huge and vast Chinese market...... Oh, of course, you can leave that aside, and you look at the whole world right now...... All the fans love Jongwook! I don't need to say much about his current business value. What's more, his performance on the pitch is enough to bear the hope of the entire city! His wonderful performance in the finals, I don't need to say much about it. ”…,
After Pelinka said this, the other party was also a little stunned.
Then, another person stood up and said, "Mr. Pelinka, it's obvious, and it's precisely because Jongwook has such a big influence and his individual ability is so good, so we're going to give him a one-year max contract and we're willing to give him a one-year player option...... You know, it's a very tough choice for a team to make. ”
"Grass and mud horses......" Zhong Yu was unhappy in his heart...... What this thing said is really unpleasant.
Is it very difficult for the team to make such a choice?
Roll the calves!
Buy yourself for 10 million in two years?
This group of people is really loud!
This contract is only 28.79 million for three years, which means that the average is a little more than 9 million a year......
Chung Wook may not care how much there is before, but he can't care less about the meaning behind the contract - he certainly doesn't think he is only worth nine million a year...... So what the fuck has it become?
With their own strength, even if it is 20 million a year, these teams will make a steady profit...... No, even 30 million of them can steal the fun!
This Nima's, who wants to send himself away in less than 30 million years in three years?
Pelinka's face also made up: "Actually, I think you also know that there are too many teams in this league that are interested in Zhong Yu...... I don't think they're going to just come up with that little money. ”
"In fact, we also want to pay a player like Jongwook more, you know, that's what he deserves! It's just that there is an Arenas clause in the league, which makes people very helpless...... "The players in this uniform group spread their shoulders and said they couldn't do anything.
Zhong Yu is also very upset - Arenas clause, damn Arenas clause!
At this time, Pelinka suddenly smiled weirdly: "What if, what if we break?" (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to (.) to vote for recommendation, monthly pass, your support is my biggest motivation. )
