The next day, on the 15th, Zhou Quan and the postman Carl Malone stood in the ring.

The NBA's famous villain did train for professional boxing, but his upper body was too strong, there was no stretch, and his flexibility was poor, resulting in a very slow hitting speed, no explosiveness, and no sensitivity to dodge, where is Zhou Quan's opponent?

Zhou Quan didn't solve the postman so quickly, and fought for nearly a round, beating the postman to the full-head, before KO the postman.

After the match, he officially announced that he would not fight professionally against a garbage professional boxer like the Postman from now on, and he announced that he would officially enter the professional boxing world, and soon he would face professional boxer Andrew Golotta, a bad boy from Poland.

This news made his crossover madman's name a little louder, and even because the opponent was a Polish bad boy, a fighter who had a certain reputation in the Olympics and the European professional boxing scene, so he also became famous in Europe.

Jordan watched the game live, saw the postman beaten to a pig's head, he left with a black face, and took his family on a trip around the world the next day.

On the 16th, Cadillac signed a contract with Zhou Quan.

This signing immediately made Zhou Quan make the front page headlines of major media in the world, and brought a worldwide exposure.

And as Cadillac's advertising spreads all over the world, his popularity around the world will predictably continue to increase.

But the next day, Zhou Quan ushered in a blow, and Christina Yerry offered to break up with him.

The reason is very simple, Yeri is old, what he wants is a family, a marriage, and a stable relationship, and this is something he can't provide now, so breaking up has become inevitable.

On the 18th, Zhou Quan, who had fallen out of love again, left Los Angeles and went to Xiangcheng accompanied by Philip.

……

Xiangcheng is an international financial center, an international metropolis, a shopping mall, and all the international brands on Zhou Quan have branches here, especially the ten first-line and top endorsements, so this time I want to stay here for a week.

This time is different from when I came last year, no one knew him last year, but this time he landed in Xiangcheng as an NBA superstar, an international sports star crossover madman, and a spokesperson for more than ten international first-line brands.

When he was still in Los Angeles, these sponsors were already promoted in the media in Xiangcheng, and the attention was very high.

Xu Xiaoming is also very powerful, from the moment he landed, ATV followed up and reported the whole process.

On the night of landing, Cadillac specially held a welcome party for him, inviting a large number of stars and rich people in Xiangcheng.

Xu Xiaoming even pulled almost all the first-tier and second-tier stars of ATV, and even invited two superstars from ATV, Zhang Guorong and Li Ming.

"Iron Fist, hello, I'm Wang Zuxian, your fan."

Wang Zuxian walked in front of Zhou Quan with a smile and stretched out his hand.

"Hello Xiaoqian." Zhou Quan blurted out.

"Poof!"

Wang Zuxian couldn't help laughing.

"Iron Fist, I have something to tell you."

"What do you say?"

"It's not easy to talk here, you come out with me."

Wang Zuxian pulled Zhou Quan to a secluded place outside the door, her assistant was waiting there, she took a pair of iron fists from the assistant's hand, and a pen, and handed it to Zhou Quan, with a face full of anticipation.

"You ......"

No one had ever asked him to sign on such an occasion, Zhou Quan was a little dumbfounded, did Xiaoqian want to pull him out.

Wang Zuxian's assistant already wanted to cover her face and retreat, but it was none of her business, and she didn't listen.

The two exchanged contact information and became friends.

The next day, Zhou Quan participated in the business activities of three endorsement brands, and there was a party in the evening, which was busier than when he was playing.

On the 20th, Philip received a notice from the Pistons that negotiations with Supersonic were over, and Supersonic chose to back down and give up on Rain Man.

The SuperSonics paid Gary Payton + Sean Kemp + Ricky Pierce, and the Pistons paid Zhou Quan + Rodman, three for two.

Philip said: "The SuperSonics added Ricky Pierce to the deal, who is the leader of the team, and this is the management that has freed up the leadership position for you. ”

"Let's see how the team can strengthen." Zhou Quan said.

"Zhou, you've only been playing for two years, and you're not a veteran yet, so you can't sign a veteran contract in advance, and the new contract will have to be signed after the end of the season."

"No problem."

The new contract offered by SuperSonics will run from '94, that is, after the end of next season, and end after the '99 season, for a total of five years.

The starting salary is $6.2 million, $9.5 million in the second year, $14.5 million in the third year, $19.5 million in the fourth year, and the final year is the player option, which is $23.5 million, with a total contract amount of $73.2 million and an average annual salary of more than $14 million, which is about the same as the salary cap for the new season.

However, this contract has not been announced, after all, it has not been signed yet.

The U.S. media has mixed opinions on the deal.

Some praised the SuperSonics for making one of the best deals, such as the Los Angeles media.

Some people think that the SuperSonics have done something stupid, Gary Payton and Sean Kemp's lineup has reached the Western Conference finals, and now they are traded directly, so if the SuperSonics can't reach the Finals next season, the deal will fail.

After Ricky Pierce and Gary Payton Sean Kemp received the news, they felt like a bolt from the blue and couldn't believe it.

"Are they crazy, we're all in the West, but they traded us, they must be crazy, damn management crazy, these brutes, these shit...... I won't let them go, in the future supersound will be my sworn enemy, sworn enemy! Damn it! And Iron Fist, what's so great about him, I'm going to win him sooner or later, and I'll do what I say, he's nothing remarkable......"

Gary Payton's mouth showed no mercy, and he sprayed directly at the supersonic management in front of the media, swearing a lot of words, and even Zhou Quan did not let go.

These have nothing to do with Zhou Quan, who is busy in Xiangcheng, attending business events during the day and sponsors' parties at night.

On the 26th, all business activities were over, and there was no party that night, so he asked Zeng Huaqian out to play.

In the past few days, the party has seen Zeng Huaqian three times, and it feels good, it just so happens that the other party is in the window period and is just pursuing.

Of course, Zeng Huaqian knew what Zhou Quan meant, she talked with Liang Chaowei for six years, and Chen Tingwei for another three years, just broke up at the beginning of this year, and vowed never to find an insider again, and Zhou Quan is an outsider, or an American sports superstar, and the spokesperson of so many first-line brands, or the spokesperson of a top luxury car like Cadillac, with status, status and height, such a person pursues her and is full of face, so she did not refuse.

In order to pursue Zeng Huaqian, Zhou Quanduo stayed in Xiangcheng for two days, causing the media and paparazzi in Xiangcheng to revolve around the two, and only left after the relationship took a step forward, and made an appointment to meet in Los Angeles next time.

On the 29th, Zhou Quan returned to Changsha.

The family has moved to a new house in the East Side, bought four units, and in one neighborhood, he lives alone.

This time, from the Eastern District to the city, as well as many leaders from their hometowns, they came to the door, with only one purpose, dollars.

Zhou Jianguo was promoted to deputy bureau last year, and the unit didn't let him go to the sea, and the district and the city didn't let him go, so he couldn't help it.

Zhou Quan did not have much investment in the United States, and after paying taxes, he left a sum of money to buy a villa and a sports car, and now all the money in his hand adds up to 10 million US dollars, which has been brought back to China, and has been exchanged for 6 million in the city, and 2 million in the Eastern District and his hometown city.

At 12 o'clock in the afternoon of this day, at 0:00 on the 29th of US time, the NBA's trading freeze period ended.

By the end of the evening, in the morning of the United States, a flurry of transactions took place.

The most important trade, of course, is the trading of weekly rights.

With this deal, the US media unanimously believes that the east-west alliance will reach a new balance, and the alliance's original pattern of being strong in the east and weak in the west will be changed.

Abdul-Jabbar spoke to the media and said of the deal: "Although the SuperSonics traded Ricky Pierce for the trio, the old foundation is still there, there are still a lot of good players, and they can also be strengthened, plus Iron Fist, I think the SuperSonics in the new season should continue to maintain the strength of the first-team team."

The addition of Iron Fist will definitely bring a huge change to the SuperSonics, he is a big player with the ball, and he will change the team from a tactical level, which I think the coaching staff should be prepared for. ”

Supersonic head coach George Carr, who is on vacation in Miami, also gave an interview to the media, and he did not express a clear attitude about the occurrence of the trade, but said:

"The squad has changed too much, we have lost three main players, which is almost equivalent to a rebuild, and Tekken is not an ordinary player, his style of play determines that the team's basic tactics will be changed in a head-changing style, so I will end my vacation immediately and I will get into work early."

Jordan, who is on a round-the-world trip, has arrived in Chile on a large cruise ship owned by the Heat boss, and he was interviewed by the media after docking, saying:

"Even if the supersonic traded the three main forces, the addition of Iron Fist and Big Worm will not cause much damage to the team's strength.

It's easy to understand that Rodman can make up for interior defense and rebounding, but the offense is a little worse, and the SuperSonics lack strong aggression to the basket on the inside.

But Shaunkamp's points per game average is not high, so his scoring is not very important, and a little reinforcement can make up for the score after he leaves.

And Iron Fist is much stronger than gloves, assist ability, offense, and even defense, he is a notch better than Gary Payton, he can not only make up for Gary Payton's position, but also strengthen the offensive and defensive strength of the supersonic guard line.

On top of that, he's ten times more dangerous with the ball than Gary Payton, and opponents even need to wrap him on the outside, but definitely not Gary Payton, which is an immeasurable advantage. ”

"Michael, do you think the superSonics in the new season can become a championship-level team?" The journalist asked.

"They are now."

……

On the 30th, Zhou Quan's family returned to their hometown.

He grew up here, and this time he came back to donate a village-level road and three village-level primary schools to the township.

Not only the cost of repairing the school, but also a batch of teaching equipment and the cost of free lunches are included, and the teachers are provided by the local government.

In the future, he will also take out a sum of money every year to maintain the cost of free lunches, and will also subsidize some teachers' fees.

On the 2nd, the family went to Wudang Mountain to visit his grandfather Lin Changfeng.

After going up the mountain, the Taoist priest in the temple told him that his grandfather's health had deteriorated a lot in the past few months, and his spirit was not good, and he was even more crazy.

"Xiaoquan, how are you doing?" Lin Changfeng asked with concern.

"Uh, okay." Zhou Quan said with a smile.

Lin Changfeng blew his beard and glared: "Who are you fooling?" ”

"No, I've really practiced, but the more I practice, the more energetic I become, and I can't sleep!" Zhou Quan said embarrassedly.

Lin Changfeng shouted: "That's because you practiced wrong, your mood is not right, the realm has not arrived, come on, come, I'll teach you how to sleep......"

"Grandpa, what kind of sleep are you sleeping in the middle of the day?" Zhou Quan couldn't laugh or cry.

"You know the, what do you do when you don't sleep in the middle of the day? That's the right thing to do. Lin Changfeng scolded.

When Zhou Quan saw his grandfather like this, he could only follow him, not daring to be too disobedient, for fear of stimulating the spirit of the old man too much.

He asked his parents to take his younger siblings down the mountain, and he stayed on the mountain to accompany his grandfather for two days.

I slept in Wudang Mountain for two days, and when I was leaving, I left a sum of money for Guanli, and repeatedly asked Guanli to take good care of my grandfather, and notify the family immediately if there was anything.

On August 8, Zhou Quan's family came to the capital.

Liu Yumin, Sun Zhenping, and Zhang Lili picked up the airport and wanted to arrange a hotel for him, but Zhou Quan refused, the family came, and the cost was too great, and Liu Yumin's salary couldn't stand it.

In the end, the three of them had a treat in Quanjude and had a meal.

The Asian Championships will start in September, when the men's basketball team is in training, and after two days in the capital, Zhou Quan and the men's basketball team met.

The head coach is still Jiang Shuai, and the players include Shan Tao, Wu Naiqun, A Dijiang, Zheng Wu, Liu Yudong, Hu Weidong and others.

Liu Yumin introduced the men's basketball team to him, and Zhang Lili and Sun Zhenping also introduced him, so he still knows a lot about this men's basketball team.

To put it simply, the outside line is good, the inside line is a little worse, especially the center is a little worse.

He took three days to train with the men's basketball team, and he played two intra-team training games with six or seven percent of his strength.

On the 15th, Zhou Quan put his family on the plane back to Changsha and prepared to return to the United States.

He still needs to train before he fights the Polish bad boys, and this is his real first professional fight, and he definitely wants to win it.

Liu Yumin and Zhang Li came to see off the plane, and naturally talked about the men's basketball team, and also talked about the shortcomings of the men's basketball team's No. 5 position, Liu Yumin said:

"Now the center still has seedlings, Wang Zhi joined the Bayi team in 91, it was the relationship I personally dealt with him, and Shougang was very stiff at that time, his talent is good, and when he grows up, he should be stronger than the existing center forwards, and he is very aura."

"A few days ago, I went to the Bayi team to watch his training, and it was really good." Zhang Li nodded.

"Wang Zhizhi?" Zhou Quan muttered.

Liu Yumin said again: "The sky and the sea also reported a situation the day before yesterday, saying that a child named Yao Min is not bad, he is only 13 years old this year, and his height has reached 196 cm, I estimate that he is an adult, and he should be able to reach 2.2 meters."

His mother and father also play basketball, and my mother and I still know each other, who are members of the original women's national basketball team, but the equipment is difficult, there are no shoes to wear, and there is no money to supplement nutrition, and the family is under great financial pressure, so I am ready to allocate 10,000 yuan to him from the department. ”

"10,000, a lot, I heard that the total amount of funds in the department this year is only 90,000." Zhang Li nodded.

Zhou Quan scratched his head, the dignified national basketball department in charge of basketball, only 90,000 yuan a year, and now the sponsor of the men's basketball team's shoes is Adi, and the sponsorship fee should also be a little money, isn't there a point in the department? But he didn't want to ask.

……

On the afternoon of the 15th, Zhou Quan arrived in Los Angeles.

A month and a half has passed since the finals, and he is about to resume formal training.

Strength trainer Hughes Swilton has arrived, and he's been doing strength training to stay in shape, but it's a little smaller in the middle of the season and more in the offseason.

The two training teams that Philip arranged for him also arrived, one was a basketball training team and the other was a boxing training team.
