Chapter 113 Pre-match jackpot
Everyone is determined to win this game and no one can afford to lose.
Just before the game started, Yang Mo got a good start. Lu Xueman, the agent who had not been seen for almost a month, came to the stadium and handed Yang Mo two contracts. Yang Mo took a quick look and was shocked. One was for McDonald's endorsement in Asia, and the contract amount was 12 million US dollars for three years. The other was for Texas Steak endorsement advertising, and the contract amount was 500,000 US dollars a year. There was also an additional clause that steak would be provided to Yang Mo for free during the contract period.
Yang Mo was dumbfounded. If the second contract was still a reasonable market price, then the McDonald's contract was definitely a sky-high price. After all, Yang Mo was just a rookie and hadn't produced any convincing statistics yet.
Yang Mo took the first contract and said to Lu Xueman in disbelief : "Are you sure this contract is real and valid? Am I really worth so much money? Twelve million US dollars for three years, it's much higher than my contract."
Yang Mo found it incredible, but Lu Xueman complained calmly, "Thanks to the scandal between you and that Korean female star, and that TV interview showing your affection, you are now a superstar in Korea. Everyone on the streets is talking about the national son-in-law Yang Mo Oppa. When I went there this time, an entertainment company offered you to act in a couple TV series with Jessica, and the price is not lower than this. Considering your influence in China and the wave of public opinion you have set off in Korea, this price is not high, and it is possible to be higher."
Yang Mo was surprised at first, and then embarrassed after hearing what Lu Xueman said. As a basketball player, he didn't make any achievements in the basketball industry, but instead made a name for himself in the entertainment industry. Is there anything more fucked up than this?
After feeling embarrassed, Yang Mo asked Lu Xueman, "Should I sign it?"
"It can be signed. This is basically the highest endorsement contract McDonald's has offered in recent years. Back then...they didn't even offer this high to Kobe Bryant." Lu Xueman nodded.
Yang Mo nodded and was about to sign when she asked, "How much will you get for this contract?"
"The two transactions together make 500,000 US dollars. How about that?" Lu Xueman said as if she was talking business.
After hearing this, Yang Mo thought it was very reasonable and quickly nodded and said, "No problem, I agree."
As he said that, he immediately wrote down his name. A commission of 500,000 is already very reliable. Big brokers usually split the commission 30%, 70%, 40%, or even 50% in commercial contracts .
"You just play well in the game. You still have more than a dozen endorsements in China, and I haven't started talking about them yet. You have to tell me your status so that I can ask for a price. Nike offered me a three- , but I think there is still room for appreciation, so I put it aside. With your status as a Chinese player, playing as a forward, and with such high topicality, as long as you can produce All-Star data, I can get you a sponsorship contract worth one hundred million U.S. dollars." Lu Xueman said very proudly.
"One hundred million US dollars?" Yang Mo muttered softly, his heart trembling.
"Don't think it's impossible. I heard that Adidas has been in contact with Derrick Rose, and the sponsorship amount is likely to be over 100 million US dollars. By the way, don't always play defense, you have to attack. Now sponsors all favor offensive players." Lu Xueman spoke in a coherent manner. It seemed that she had put a lot of effort into basketball agency.
"Then I will try to shoot more three-pointers." Yang Mo nodded. He was not a person who regarded money as dirt. Moreover, he planned to be a player who could do both offense and defense in the future. It was impossible for him to be a blue-collar worker all his life.
"Okay, I'll go first." Lu Xueman said this, picked up the contract and was about to leave in a hurry.
Yang Mo, however, held her hand with a sly smile and said, "Big agent, you've never seen me play basketball live before? Watch me play a game tonight, and then we'll go have dinner together after it's over!"
As Yang Mo spoke, she slowly rubbed Lu Xueman's palm, making Lu Xueman's heart flutter. Although Lu Xueman looked strong and not interested in men, she was still a gentle woman at heart. Yang Mo's teasing had inadvertently opened her heart, and now she was seduced by Yang Mo again, she couldn't help but feel a little confused.
But soon, her reason overcame her desire, and she quickly pulled her hand out of Yang Mo's palm. She seemed very determined, but the blush on her face betrayed her inner feelings.
"Just watch one!" Yang Mo held her hand again and said with a smile.
From this perspective, Yang Mo is really a romantic person.
Lu Xueman softened her heart at his request, but she still pretended to be tough and said, "Just this one fight, don't push it any further."
"Okay!" Yang Mo nodded happily and subconsciously moved forward...baji!
He immediately kissed Lu Xueman on the lips.
Lu Xueman was stunned by Yang Mo's kiss. This was her first kiss! How could this boy take it away from her?
Lu Xueman stood there in a daze, but Yang Mo quickly ran towards the court, as if he was afraid that Lu Xueman would hit him.
But Lu Xueman didn't move . After a long time, she reached out her hand and touched her lips foolishly, smiled inexplicably, and then sat on the sidelines, supporting her chin with one hand, watching Yang Mo practicing on the court motionlessly.
Pat Riley, who was standing next to him, smiled bitterly and shook his head. This was the fourth girlfriend of Yang Mo he had seen. As a man, he envied Yang Mo's ability. But as a general manager, he was a little worried, fearing that this talented player would be ruined by a woman. He had been in the league for so many years and had seen too many geniuses ruined by women. However, he was very relieved about Yang Mo, because most of those geniuses who were ruined went to nightclubs to find girls, which led to promiscuity, alcoholism, smoking marijuana, and living a life of drunkenness and dreams. However, Yang Mo at least found a decent woman and was in a serious relationship, although he was a little fickle.
Pat Riley was a little worried, but his teammates on the court were envious of Yang Mo. His girlfriends came one after another, and each one was prettier than the other. Dwyane Wade couldn't help but pull Yang Mo aside and asked curiously, "Yang, how many girlfriends do you have?"
"This... is a secret that cannot be told." Yang Mo made a gesture that every man could understand.
Dwyane Wade was extremely envious, and at the same time, he made up his mind to get along well with Yang Mo and learn some more ways to pick up girls from him. He also wanted to enjoy the blessing of having two wives. After all, which man doesn't want to have three wives and four concubines?
However, this thing really can't be taught. Yang Mo is so fickle because of the "rogue star". Every time he sees a beautiful woman, he can't help himself. It's okay for white beauties, but when he sees yellow beauties, he can't stand it. It's like there are countless monkeys scratching in his heart.
This can be considered a side effect of the six-pointed star besides improving basketball skills, but this side effect is what every man dreams of.
