Chapter 226: Money Rolling In
"I really didn't expect that you would dare to drive to chase the criminals with bare hands. Is it because you have watched too many Hollywood blockbusters?" Dwyane Wade asked curiously after taking the two autograph cards signed by Yang Mo.
"To be honest, I didn't think about anything at the time. I just wanted to save people." Yang Mo answered seriously, "And I didn't think a few robbers could pose any threat to me. It would be too easy to beat them up!"
"You've become a global superstar. My favorite action star Jason Statham has expressed his desire to work with you on a movie. You're much more advanced than those of us who play basketball." Dwyane Wade said sourly. Seeing his younger brother suddenly become a global celebrity, it's normal to feel envious under such a huge psychological gap. This is human nature. In fact, Wade is already a very generous person. Those who are a little more petty would have said all kinds of indirect and malicious words.
"Jason Statham?" Yang Mo muttered, "I'm not interested in male stars, but I can try female stars. Haha!"
"Just flip through the entertainment magazines yourself." Dwyane Wade walked to the sidelines and threw a magazine over, saying unhappily, "Almost all the top female stars have expressed their admiration for you, and they also emphasized that they are willing to work with you."
"Oh, really?" Yang Mo flipped open the magazine. The first page was a photo of Angelina Jolie with a line of words on it : "Super Yang is a hero in life. I look forward to appearing in the same film with him. His eyes and aura are very sharp. He can play the role of a gangster godfather or even a king."
What the hell!
Yang Mo was immediately shocked. Angelina Jolie! The goddess, even though she is a little old, she is definitely one of the biggest actresses in Hollywood. She actually paid attention to me?
Yang Mo was surprised and flipped through the pages. A-list celebrities such as Nicole Kidman, Scarlett Johansson, Anne Hathaway, etc. expressed their willingness to work with her. These people were only seen on movie screens before, but now they are willing to make a movie with her. Oh my God! What earth-shattering thing did I do?
Yang Mo was shocked. He never thought that his simple act of saving someone would cause such a sensation. In fact, this was thanks to MTV, which broadcast the entire event live. If they hadn't captured these images, the impact would never have been so great. After all, the shocking power of images can never be compared to that of videos.
Moreover, Yang Mo's fierce aura when facing the knife-wielding gangster was indeed at the level of a super actor, with such a strong aura that even Marlon Brando might not be able to cover it. Moreover, Yang Mo's figure and appearance are both popular in the East and the West, a typical international face, and she will become famous at first sight.
In addition, Hollywood is indeed in a period of transition when it comes to action stars. Yang Mo's sudden appearance has satisfied many people's fantasies. This is a superhero who has stepped from reality into the screen. How could the film producers not flock to her?
Yang Mo turned to the last page, where his favorite black actor Denzel Washington wrote: "If American Gangsters needs to shoot a second film, Super Yang is definitely the best candidate. His temperament satisfies all women's fantasies about men. He makes people think of Marlon Brando. If he goes to the performing arts academy to study for a while, he may become an Oscar winner."
After reading it, Yang Mo was confused.
He didn't expect that he would become a figure in the entertainment industry just by saving someone and fighting. Moreover, there were so many big-name stars praising him, and the film company offered him a first-tier salary. He would never dare to dream of this.
He suddenly felt that there was some black humor. He had played basketball for half his life, but the result was no better than a fight. Could this be considered an accidental success?
Yang Mo laughed in silence, closed the magazine, ran to the locker room to change clothes, and continued to follow his tentative steps.
In terms of meditation, Yang Mo is indeed top-notch. He rarely lets external things affect his true nature. As long as he is thinking about something, nothing can disturb him.
Yang Mo practiced attentively for the whole day, and when she went back home in the evening.
Lu Xueman got a stack of contracts and handed them to Yang Mo: "Well, this first one is the Nike contract. It will take effect if you sign it now. The money will be deposited into your card over five years. During the All-Stars, you have to attend their press conference to officially announce the signing. At the same time, they will create your first signature shoe, which will be released at that time. In addition, someone will go to your team tomorrow to measure your feet."
"Yes, okay." Yang Mo nodded and signed immediately.
"By the way, you will also shoot a commercial for them during the All-Star Game," Lu Xueman continued.
"No problem." Yang Mo agreed. After all, he had to do some work if he took 120 million yuan from someone else, right?
"This second one is the contract with BMW. It will take effect once signed. There is also a signing fee of 500,000 euros, which is not included in tax deduction." Lu Xueman took out the second contract with a smile. This is all money, how can she not smile?
"There is also a signing fee?" Yang Mo said in surprise.
"Yes, Europeans like to play this." Lu Xueman laughed.
"BMW is really open." Yang Mo praised and signed his name. These two words alone are worth more than 5 million RMB, amazing!
"These two are contracts with Pepsi, this one is a contract with Red Bull, this one is a contract with Samsung mobile phones, and this one is a contract with Nikon cameras..."
Lu Xueman introduced them one by one, but Yang Mo interrupted him at the right time: "Wait, there seems to be something strange mixed in here!"
"Strange things? What strange things?" Lu Xueman asked in confusion.
"If I remember correctly, Nikon is a Japanese brand."
"Yes, that's right." Lu Xueman nodded. She immediately understood what Yang Mo meant. Although Nikon offered an annual salary of tens of millions for the endorsement, she tore up the contract and threw it into the trash can without hesitation.
"Anything else?" Yang Mo continued to ask.
"Yes, this is the Gucci contract, this is the Dior contract, and this is... uh, this is also a strange thing." Lu Xueman spoke as she tore up another contract.
"How about the price?" Yang Mo waited until she finished her report and asked.
"These contracts are all for three years. The annual salary for Pepsi endorsements is 12 million US dollars, and Samsung and Red Bull are 10 million US dollars. The prices of the two luxury brands are a little lower, only 5 million euros each, but they can provide you with the latest products and add to your personal image." Lu Xueman reported one by one.
Yang Mo listened, nodded in agreement, and then asked: "Can you help me calculate how much money I can earn this year?"
"Ha!" Lu Xueman suddenly laughed out loud, and said a little embarrassedly: "I have been busy negotiating a contract for you recently, so I haven't calculated your income, but I can be sure that you are definitely the highest-earning athlete this year."
"Oh! I dare not even dream about it!" Yang Mo thought it was too dreamy. From the tight life in the past to the rich life now where you don't have to worry about spending money to cook, the difference is like heaven and earth!
Thinking about it, Yang Mo couldn't help but think of Zhou Yiyi's father. Her father broke up the couple because Yang Mo was not worthy of Yiyi and was afraid that he would take away their family property. Now? Haha, an endorsement contract crushes your life savings.
"Oh, by the way, this is the script for Fast and Furious. Universal Pictures agreed to your terms and is willing to start filming in the summer also said they would get a 5% share of the global box office, but the salary was reduced to 12 million."
"It doesn't matter. As long as there are dividends, it's good. A mere three million will be returned in minutes." Yang Mo said confidently.
At this time, Lu Xueman handed over another script and said, "This is the script Stallone gave you. He is preparing to shoot his comeback film, and he thinks you can choose a role in it. But he will only pay you 8 million, and there is no global box office dividend."
Yang Mo picked up the script and took a look. Suicide Squad?
I immediately became interested, and then I took the script and read on, and found that it was a group play. My role was not particularly large, and eight million was enough, so I nodded and said, "Reply to him and tell him to start filming in the summer vacation, and the crew must wait for my schedule, then I will agree."
"Okay." Lu Xueman agreed, and suddenly teased Yang Mo: "Why do I feel like you are a big movie star now? I've been dealing with the entertainment industry more than the sports industry recently, and I almost forgot that you are a basketball player."
"Haha!" Yang Mo laughed heartily, and suddenly remembered something, so she said, "By the way, are you interested in helping me run an entertainment agency? I'll give you 20% of the shares. I plan to sign the agency rights of Girls' Generation to me, what do you think?"
"I... let me learn more about the entertainment industry first. It's not mature enough now. Although sports agents and entertainment agents are both agents, there is an industry in between after all." Lu Xueman said seriously.
"Okay, go find out first." Yang Mo stretched and said ambitiously: "In the future, I want to build a kingdom in the sports circle and also a kingdom in the entertainment circle."
"Are you trying to build a harem in the entertainment industry?" Lu Xueman gave Yang Mo a displeased look and complained.
After she complained like this, Yang Mo was completely stunned, muttering in her heart: How does she know my true intention?
