Soul of the Golden State

Chapter 74 Advertising Endorsement
"Amway's vitamin supplement is healthy and harmless, and it meets Frank's requirements. Although the advertising fee is not much, I think it is possible to sign a short contract first and set up some incentive plans, so that Li Weisi will not be too worried. It’s a loss.” In the office, David Falcao, who hadn’t seen him for a long time, explained vividly at the other end of the desk.

The reason why it is said that it has been a long time is because Li Weisi and his agent have not seen each other since the start of the match. If it was not possible to see it on TV, Falcao thought Li Weisi had lost contact.

It can be said that Li Weisi is the most unskilled player Falcao has ever brought in. There is no need for salary negotiations, because the team owner is more worried than his agent, and he can give as much money as he can.

When accepting advertisements, the boss is even more submissive. He can’t accept this and that can’t accept it. He is even more picky than Li Weisi. This time, it’s because Li Weisi’s outstanding performance has made his popularity skyrocket since the start of the competition. Countless companies are waving money to find Li Weisi to cooperate.

Even so, Falcao carefully selected a few advertisements and endorsements with low risk and reasonable price to find Li Weisi.

After listening to Falcao's words, Frank nodded, and asked Li Weisi again: "I think it's not bad, West, what do you think?"

Li Weisi played with the sample of Amway in his hand for a while, and said in such a showy tone: "Do you know that taking vitamins has certain benefits, but the amount absorbed by the human body is limited. Using too much is actually equivalent to buying a bunch of expensive vitamins." Instead of doing this, it is better to buy manganese.”

"Uh, isn't manganese poisonous?" Frank asked curiously, attracted by Li Weisi's topic.

"Manganese plays a physiological role in the human body mainly by participating in the formation of enzymes or activating enzymes. Manganese plays an important role in many aspects such as bone formation, amino acid, cholesterol and carbohydrate metabolism, maintenance of brain function, and synthesis and metabolism of neurotransmitters. .Of course, excessive consumption of manganese can trigger chronic manganese poisoning, which can damage the body's motor function and nervous system..."

"Ahem! Gentlemen, are you digressing?" Falcao couldn't help but interrupt when he heard Li Weisi talking about popular science.

"Oh, yes, David, please continue!" Frank reached out his hand to signal Frank to continue.

"Okay! There is also McDonald's. They want to find West to shoot the advertisement for this new burger set. As the largest fast food chain in the United States, the risk of the advertisement itself is very low, and McDonald's is very generous. They offered 30 The price of US$[-] is required to shoot a set of commercials and future publicity."

Frank continued to nod, then looked at Li Weisi again and asked, "What do you think?"

Li Weisi picked up the information of McDonald's again, which is the new set menu launched by McDonald's. Li Weisi pointed to the ketchup in it and said: "Do you know? At first, ketchup was a general term for sauce, especially those mushrooms with herbs and spices." Or kippers, early popular staples included blueberries, anchovies, green beans, and grapes.”

At this moment, Falcao felt the veins on his forehead bulge, and he could hardly restrain his urge to hit someone.

Am I talking about vitamins, ketchup?I'm talking about money with you guys, dollar!How can we talk about the dollar matter first, and then talk about the ketchup matter!

"That... is this still considered?" Falcao asked, holding back his temper.

Perhaps because he saw that Falcao was on the verge of getting angry, Frank quickly laughed at Falcao and said, "David, let's forget about these advertisements. This amount of money is not enough for me to spend at the club for one night. I don't think West is willing either!"

Speaking of Frank looked at Li Weisi, feeling Frank's gaze, Li Weisi nodded and said, "It's too troublesome, I still need to train."

For these two people, Falcao was speechless. Who are these people?One doesn't take money seriously because he has money, and the other doesn't take money seriously because someone gives him money, so why do you still play golf, just become a full-time wife... Isn't he popular?
How much money can a player agent like Falcao earn from player salary commissions alone?The commission of a general NBA agent is almost 2.75% of the player's contract, and the player's salary is only a few hundred thousand dollars.

If you really want to make money, you have to rely on endorsements, but now there is such a master who doesn't love money, what do you ask him to do?He is also very desperate!

Thinking that I have established a studio now, if it weren't for Jordan's momentum this year, I am afraid that I would not be able to complete this year's KPI, it is really Alexander.

"Then stop accepting all advertisements from now on?" Falker asked tentatively.

"I can't say everything. If there is an advertisement that can help Li Weisi's career, then it doesn't matter. For example, like Jordan, let Nike create a series of sneakers similar to Air Jordan for West?" Said Here, Frank, who was originally careless, stared like a brass bell, shooting out lightning-like shrewdness, and the antennae of his ears were erect, waiting for any answer from Falcao at any time.

Falcao didn't understand Frank's vague answer like this. It turned out that Frank had such a plan in mind.

"This idea is very good, but... this idea is not very easy to realize." Falcao kindly reminded.

"It's not easy to realize, so we will work hard to realize him. Isn't this the time when players and your agent need to work together!"

"Hey, hey, yes!" Falcopi smiled.

Don't think Farkao said yes, but he couldn't help but feel a little awkward in his heart. If he fights for Li Weisi's interests, will it affect Jordan?

At present, the income that Jordan and Li Weisi brought to him is simply worlds apart. If it affects Jordan's income because of Li Weisi, it will be a disastrous blow to him. After all, his business must be directed at Jordan. .

So Falcao just talked to Frank perfunctorily, but he didn't intend to go to the Nike executives to fight for Li Weisi, unless Li Weisi could reach the height of Jordan, but is this possible?
This year is only Jordan's third year, but the first 6 games of this season have become Jordan's scoring performances. The scores of the 6 games are 50, 41, 34, 33, 39, 34, and none of them is less than 30 points Next, this not only shocked the league, but also made fans all over the United States exclaim.

How could Li Weisi compare with such a performance?Unable to show the corresponding performance, Falcao is trying his best, so what benefits can he win for Li Weisi?

Therefore, it was self-evident whose thigh he should hug, even if Frank had money, it would not be in his pocket.
