Chapter 204: Gold Broker
"This is a special spiritual exchange between me and you, you don't have to open your mouth to talk to me, as long as you think about it in your head, I can hear it." The man also didn't open his mouth, but Li Cheng also heard the voice.
"Oh, that's what it looks like! Then the communication between us is something that no one else can hear! This time, Li Cheng didn't speak, just thought about it in his head.
"Yes, that's it."
"Alright! But for now, let's talk normally! I'm not used to that. Li Cheng said.
"Okay, no problem." This was the first time Li Cheng had seen the man open his mouth, but his voice was no different from the voice just now.
The two communicated for a long time, and Li Cheng found that the two of them were still standing at the door so far.
Li Cheng smiled awkwardly and said, "You come in first!" It's not good for the two of us to stand in the door and chat! ”
The man smiled and walked inside.
The two sat on the sofa before continuing to communicate.
"What shall I call you?"
"You can call me Number One, or you can call me Osborne."
Li Cheng nodded and said, "Osborne, you are already my agent now?" At this time, Li Cheng was still shocked by the power of the "top of the basketball system".
"Not yet." Osborne restrained the smile on his face and said with some sternness: "We have to sign the contract before I can count it as your agent." ”
"Uh......" Li Cheng was stunned for a moment and said, "How can I sign a contract with you?" ”
"Osborne who appears in front of you now is a complete 'person', except that there is a special function between me and you that can communicate." Osborne explained.
"Okay!" Li Cheng let go of the doubts in his heart and said, "Then without further ado, let's sign the contract quickly!" ”
Osborne nodded, took out a stack of A4 paper from the briefcase he was carrying and pushed it in front of Li Cheng, and said, "This is the contract." Look! ”
With such a large stack of contracts, Li Cheng was dizzy when he looked at it. He pushed the contract back to Osborne and said, "You explain it to me directly, I look at these dizziness." ”
Anyway, this agent is a reward given to him by the "top of the basketball system", can he still pit himself on this paper contract? Li Cheng was very relieved in his heart.
Osborne smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, there is no point, this contract is mostly covered, but for all your contracts, I take 2% of the commission." This is handed over to the 'Top of the Basketball System', and it has little to do with me. ”
Li Cheng nodded. Then he took the contract and happily signed his name.
Osborne also took a pen and signed his name happily, then handed one contract to Li Cheng, and put the other into his briefcase.
"You have something to do in the future, but make this call." Osborne pulled out a business card.
Li Cheng took the business card and sighed in his heart: "Even the business card has been printed, this system is too powerful." ”
Li Cheng took the business card and looked at it, and Osborne's voice came again, "If you call me from a landline." I'll be able to get to you on the phone, but generally speaking, you won't be able to use this ability. ”
Osborne pulled out another piece of paper with his plan for the development of Li Cheng's commercial value.
Li Chengdu didn't take the piece of paper and said, "Just tell me." Don't show me this, I don't understand. ”
Osborne pursed his lips and said, "Okay! Then I'll tell you about it. ”
The last thing Li Cheng wants now is to look at these messy texts, and the "Top of the Basketball System" gives him text explanations all day long. Textual explanation of the "Top of the Basketball System". He had to look, but now that Osborne was sitting in front of him, he was a big living person, how could he still read the words?
Osborne groaned for a moment. After a moment of language, he said, "In general, you have a Foundation now. You took advantage of the earthquake to create a foundation, and it saved us a lot of trouble. For the time being, we just need to maintain this foundation. Now our most important task is to make money. ”
"And what are you going to do with this foundation?" Li Cheng asked.
"The Foundation should be at a standstill right now, we just need to get him up and running. Basically, it is enough to recruit two full-time staff, and all the rest are volunteers. Osborne said: "We also have to do charity, but now our foundation is too weak, and we can't be pretended to be generous." So, I'm going to start with basketball construction in some remote areas of China, and then increase investment year by year. ”
Li Cheng nodded and said, "I also had a brain fever when this foundation came out, and I could only be dumped to the agent, but now you can just come and solve this problem." However, I have a requirement, you have to actually do charity, you know? ”
Osborne rolled his eyes and said, "Can I still get money into my pocket?" What do I want money for? ”
"You won." A row of black lines appeared on the door of Li Cheng's head.
Osborne continued: "In addition, I have selected some advertising endorsements for you. ”
"For you, the most important thing is the sneaker contract, and I recommend that you choose Nike." Osborne said: "You have an advantage over the current Nike stars. ”
When Li Cheng heard Osborne's words, he immediately became interested.
Osborne's conditioning is very clear analysis: "Now, Asians don't like James's style of play very much; Carter has slipped off the top and has been injured quite frequently lately; Kobe Bryant is known as a 'traitor' in the sneaker market, he first endorsed Adidas and then switched to Nike, and then because of the Eagle County incident, he will never be able to become a Nike brother, another is Anthony, but he has not fully grown up, and finally Durant, who is still very immature. So, this is the best time for Nike and the best time for you. ”
"What do you mean by that?"
"Because of the Asian market!" Osborne held out a finger and tapped the table.
"Nike gave up Yao Ming back then, and their share of the Asian market has shrunk one after another, and Nike has gone crazy for the Asian market in recent years. And you say, what is the most important market in the Asian market? Osborne smiled and said.
Li Chengcheng knows the answer to this question no matter how stupid he is, "The Chinese market!" ”
"So, you should be right to sign with Nike." Osborne laughed.
"Okay! You can just look at it, Nike contacted me last month, and I politely declined. I don't want to talk to those guys about money! What else is Adi, Reebok, these things all look the same in my eyes, I don't care who I find. Li Cheng waved casually.
Osborne continued: "I'm relieved that you're in this mindset. ”
When Osborne wanted to continue, Li Cheng's mobile phone rang.
Li Cheng saw that it was Granger's phone.
As soon as Li Cheng picked up the phone, Granger's scolding came, "Which chick are you in bed with!" It's 7 o'clock, you can't eat? Lao Tzu starved to death. ”
Only then did Li Cheng remember that he was going to have dinner with Granger, but then Osborne appeared, and he forgot about the meal as soon as he was excited.
"I'm going to talk to the agent about something, why don't you go eat first?" Or wait for me a while? Li Cheng asked weakly.
"What? You're starting a conversation with your agent so soon? Who was so lucky to sign you on? Granger asked, surprised.
"Ugh! I've signed the contract, and we're talking about the next business operations. Li Cheng said.
Granger rolled his eyelids and said, "You're fooling around, aren't you?" I won't find another vampire to enter the door! ”
Li Chengdao: "It can't be a vampire this time, don't worry!" This guy, I trust him 100 percent. ”
"Alright! Then hurry up, I'll wait for you to have dinner together, and meet your new agent by the way. Granger said.
After hanging up the phone, Li Cheng and Osborne continued to talk.
The next thing they need to talk about is how to continue to operate.
Osborne believes that the most important thing for Li Cheng to do now is to make money. A commercial contract that enhances the image is never too much within reason. In addition, the money earned cannot be idle, and the right investment is a must.
Li Cheng felt that there was absolutely nothing wrong with Osborne's plans, but these plans were all carried out around him, and Li Cheng felt that there were still some deficiencies, or imperfections.
"Osborne, you're just about me, but my father is not very good at home now, can he continue to develop industries in China?" Li Cheng asked.
Osborne nodded and said, "There is no problem at all, you will definitely return to China after a while." Any company that will ask you to sign a contract must have taken a fancy to the Chinese market, and you will definitely go to China to promote it when the time comes. ”
"Even if I didn't have those business activities, I would definitely go back to China."
Osborne nodded, and said, "Hmm! You know the general plan in your heart, and that's probably what it looks like. Tomorrow, I think it's time for us to have a good chat with Mr. Larry Bird. ”
Li Cheng naturally knew what Osborne meant, and he nodded in agreement.
Li Cheng took Osborne to Granger, and the three of them had dinner together.
Granger racked his brain when he saw Osborne, but he looked through all the people he knew in his head and didn't know who Osborne was.
In Granger's impression, the agents who can sign Li Cheng must be the biggest names among the agents! But this guy in front of me has no impression of himself at all!
Later, when he heard that Osborne was just a nobody, Granger bluntly said, "Brother! If I were one of those agents waiting in line to sign you, I'd kill myself! They earned and earned, but they didn't expect that the person you would work with in the end turned out to be such a guy. ”
Li Cheng looked at Granger's expression and said with a smile: "Mr. Osborne, he must be the best agent in the world." At the very least, he would be the best agent for me. (To be continued......)
