ALL NOVEL Chapter 54
【54] Nike's offer: 7 years, $30 million!
Nuggets training gym.
Anthony, Billups and other players are training. Not long after, head coach George Karl came over with a document and called the players over.
"Guys, pay attention, the next opponent is the Warriors, who, like us, started the season with 3 wins in a row, even though they were 10th in the Western Conference last season and haven’t made the playoffs for several years."
"But this year, we have been reborn."
Coach Karl said seriously
"Nirvana rebirth?!"
JR·Smith snorted,"It's just one more rookie. It's not that big of a deal. At least there's no need to bring it up specifically.""
""The Nervous Knife" JR didn't care.
Billups smiled awkwardly,"JR, you can't say that, Su Mo is not a rookie, he has scored 40+ points in 3 consecutive games, leading the Warriors team and the entire league."
"Even Cameron only scored 45 points in a single game, and only scored 30+ points in the other two games. His average score is not as high as Su Mo's."
"This rookie���He has already played like a team leader."
Anthony raised his eyebrows when he heard this:"Haha, no wonder he didn't want to join forces with LeBron. He originally wanted to be the leader himself. However, this level can also make him the leader of the Warriors."
"Cameron, what are you mumbling about?!"
Carl asked
"Ah!" Anthony shook his head and smiled faintly:"Nothing, coach, this season we will take every game seriously and aim to win the championship."
"Yes."
After hearing this, Coach Karl felt relieved.
Last year, the loss to the Lakers in the Western Conference Finals made him feel uncomfortable for half a month. This year, he was determined to make it to the Western Conference Finals and step onto the floor of the Finals.......
While the entire league was paying attention to Su Mo and the Warriors, he got up early the next day and took Kuma to a nearby park to walk his dog.
After defeating the Trail Blazers, the Lakers had two days of rest.
After walking for almost an hour and breathing the fresh air in the park, Su Mo was in a very good mood.
"Um?!"
"Austin?!"
As soon as he returned to the villa, Su Mo saw his agent Austin's car parked on the side of the road. Then Austin got out of the car and walked over.
In the living room of the villa,
Su Mo poured a cup of tea for old man Austin.
"Thank you, you are so polite."
Austin took the hot tea and put it on the coffee table. Then he took out a document from his briefcase and put it on the coffee table. He said,"Su Mo, I have secured a contract for you."
"Oh?!"
Su Mo's eyes lit up, he liked this news very much.
Austin pointed to the document on the coffee table and said,"This is the contract Nike gave you. Congratulations, you won their recognition with three gorgeous performances of 40+."
"They want to sign you, and the offer is 7 years, 30 million dollars."
Wow!
7 years, 30 million dollars?!
"Isn't that 4 million US dollars a year, more than 28 million Chinese Yuan?!"
""Very good!"
Su Mo said happily.
If it weren't for the premise of an annual salary of 10 million US dollars, Su Mo might have jumped for joy.
"Are you satisfied with this?!"
Old man Austin glanced at Su Mo with a look of contempt.
"Oh? Could it be that......"
Su Mo snorted and motioned Austin to continue. The latter took a sip of tea and said,"7 years and 30 million, I don't think it's good enough for you. I think you can get better."
"Need to know"
"When Durant first entered the league, he got 60 million for 7 years, which is twice as much as you, not to mention that in 2003, LeBron got a super contract of 90 million for 7 years."
"Money was more valuable back then"
"Compared with your strength, your offer is really cheap....
Su Mo thought about it and asked the key question,"Then why don't you help me get a higher offer, but bring the contract to me and ask me to sign it?!"
"Of course not."
Austin shook his head."This contract has not yet taken effect."
"Nike's point is, although your data is good, your recent opponents, the Rockets and Timberwolves, are both weak teams, so scoring high doesn't mean anything."
"I can't do anything about your performance just because of luck."
Su Mo frowned and said,"Aren't the Blazers very strong? What about the Big Three? Are they also considered a weak team?!"
"The Trail Blazers are OK, but......Nike's top management is very cunning. They found fault with everything and said that the Warriors won partly because of Curry's explosion, which boosted the morale of the whole team."
"Taking the opportunity to suppress your performance again."
Fuck.
This is also possible,
Su Mo's mouth twitched,"These old guys are really thieves, trying every means to lower the price"
"Yes"
"Everyone wants to make money."
Austin slowly put down the teacup and said bluntly:"However, since they are willing to explain, it means that they really recognize you and want to sign you."
"If you don't like it, you won't have a chance to bargain."
"Su Mo, Nike is the best company in the shoe industry, Adidas, Under Armour, etc. are not good enough, so......I think signing with Nike is the most beneficial"
"He is pushing now, and also giving opportunities"
"As long as your performance is good enough in the future, I can maximize your offer as much as possible. Of course, I know your performance is already very good."
"
However , we need to be perfect and shut these guys up completely....
""Okay!"
Su Mo nodded.
Fortunately, he had an agent. Otherwise, it would be difficult to evaluate his own value. He might be sold out by others one day, and he would still be counting money for others foolishly.
Then he thought about it.
The reason why Austin did not help Curry sign a contract with Nike was probably because Curry was not so strong in the early stage, so Nike's desire to pursue him was not strong enough.
"Then go first"
"Come on!"
After finishing the business, Austin, who still had a lot of things to deal with, left.
""Knock, knock, knock!"
Just a few minutes after leaving, there was a knock on the door.
"Forgot to bring something?!"
