NBA: Full Jordan

Thanksgiving, also known as Turkey Day, is a traditional charity event on which roasted turkeys are given to children from poor families.

There is no need to talk about its origin and history.

But on Thanksgiving, the whole country is very lively, people go to churches to pray in thanksgiving, urban and rural towns are full of costume parades, theatrical performances and sports competitions, and schools and shops are closed according to regulations.

Cities and towns are full of make-up parades, theatrical performances or sports competitions. Relatives who have been separated for a year will also return from Tiannanhai Beibei to reunite as a family and taste Thanksgiving food based on “turkey”.

The most famous local celebration is the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, which began in 1924.

People and children also imitated the appearance of the Indians in those days, dressed in bizarre costumes, painted faces or wore masks, and sang and played horns in the streets.

At the same time, hospitable Americans can’t forget this day to invite friends, bachelors or people far from home to spend the holiday together.

Since the 18th century, there has been a custom of giving baskets of food to poor families.

There was a group of young women who wanted to dedicate one day of the year to doing good deeds, and thought it was the most appropriate Thanksgiving.

So as soon as Thanksgiving arrived, they loaded baskets full of food and delivered them to poor homes. It was rumored far and wide, and soon many people were following their example.

No matter who they meet, they say, “Thankyou! Families from other places also come home for the holidays, and the family sits together, munches delicious turkey, and says to the family: “Thank you! “。

After Thanksgiving, the school will ask students to draw a picture of Thanksgiving, and most of the students draw a turkey.

And to celebrate the holidays and go out to shop, has become a worry for every family.

From Thanksgiving to Christmas, the total sales of the retail industry in the United States can account for 1/3 of the year, which is the traditional discount promotion season for various merchants. The shopping spree begins on Friday the day after Thanksgiving, which is known as Black Friday.

Ewing invited Yang Ming, which is naturally normal.

Yang Ming is alone in a foreign country, or his teammate and little brother, and has a good relationship.

Most importantly, Ewing’s daughter likes Yang Ming.

However, when Yang Ming got into Ewing’s car and went to the other party’s house, he learned that the other party’s twelve-year-old son, Ewing II, liked him more than his sister.

As soon as he entered the door, the other party was already holding a basketball and waiting at the door, and when he saw him, he rushed over to find him to sign autographs.

“Yang, sign your name.”

“Yes!”

Yang Ming signed his name, and then asked puzzled: “I have been here before, why haven’t you signed with me?” ”

Ewing II touched the back of his head and said embarrassedly: “I was impressed by your 72 points, and I only thought you were a good guy and my father’s teammate.” ”

At this time, Ewing whispered over, “He didn’t like you before, because he was worried that you would take my place.” Children are like that, they always want to mess with things, and you don’t mind. ”

Yang Ming nodded and touched the head of this cute baby with a smile.

Ewing II, who did not inherit his father’s talent in the future, was selected by the Hornets with the 43rd pick in 2 rounds in the 11-year draft, but was soon traded. In the end, it played only one season and disappeared from the league.

He is a typical superstar second-generation, with food and clothing, but mediocre talent, not only did not inherit the talent and ability of his father, but even the NBA could not stand on his feet.

This Ewing II is one of them, and Jordan’s two sons have disappeared early.

But there are sons who are better than their fathers, such as Curry and Son.

Of course, there are many more, Tim Hardaway II, Thompson, etc., but only Curry is better than the blue.

After entering the house, Yang Ming saw that Ewing’s lover was busy and preparing things to go out.

Ewing also looked at Yang Ming and asked with a smile: “Do you go shopping with us?” We’re going to buy quite a few turkeys. ”

“Yes!”

Yang Ming undertook it, but at this time, the phone rang, and Falcao’s voice came from the other side.

“Yang, Nike, has agreed to our offer, you are ready, I will pick you up immediately!”

Done?

Yang Ming was overjoyed, reported Ewing’s address here, and after letting the other party pick up someone, he closed the phone and apologized to Ewing: “I’m sorry, I just happened to have something urgent.” ”

“It’s okay!”

Ewing expressed understanding, but he was curious, the other party is in a foreign country, just live alone, what is the urgency at this time?

Yang Ming thought about it, but still explained: “I will get a Nike sneaker contract, and I will sign with them later.” ”

“Nike’s sneaker contract?”

Ewing suddenly patted him on the shoulder and congratulated: “Congratulations, you have also become a part of Nike, and you have another income.” ”

Although he didn’t know how big Yang Ming’s contract would be, he was at least better than these big men.

Big people don’t sell shoes, it’s always been an iron rule.

An hour later, Yang Ming and David Falcao, the brokerage team and the lawyer team went to meet in the conference room of the hotel with Nike.

After ten days of long haggling, this time, Nike agreed cleanly and agreed to the final offer.

Contracts of $60 million for five years and 12 million a year.

Of course, this is not comparable to the 7 years 90 million that James got in 03, but you know, it is 96 years, in this era, more than 10 million sneaker contracts are sky-high.

Moreover, five years have passed, and the expiration is exactly 03, and the platinum generation enters the league, and by then, Yang Ming will inevitably renew his contract. The price is certainly far more than this contract, and even doubling is possible.

The premise, of course, is that it is not divided.

But Falcao opened his mouth and demanded two-thirds of the profit share, in addition to requiring Yang Ming to have his own Nike sub-brand signature shoe line.

In addition to the huge amount of the contract, it is no different from the original contract Jordan signed that year.

How could Nike say yes?

At this time, Nike is no longer the small manufacturer before signing with Jordan, it is already a giant in the NBA league market.

It is impossible to get the treatment Jordan did at the time.

So, the two sides fought for more than ten days, and finally after Yang Ming cut 58 points on Payton’s head last night, Nike accepted the final price with pain.

Yang Ming’s Nike personal brand, five production lines, six million US dollars in five years, plus 30% profit sharing.

Nike can’t accept it.

Yang Ming is becoming more and more popular, more and more people are paying attention, his influence is spreading day by day, and his popularity is soaring.

Such an eighteen-year-old superstar happens to be able to replace Jordan as their new head and face the face. At the same time, in order to open up the Celestial Empire market, it must be signed.

Compared with Jordan, Yang Ming’s advantage is too great.

Young!

Handsome with even pixel quality!

Comes with a vast market!

You’re also in New York, the world’s largest city!

All the conditions add up to enough to support this sky-high contract.

Yang Ming happily signed his name, which became Nike’s new door.

When the two sides shook hands and took pictures, their faces were grinning, but Mark Parker was MMP in his heart!

(Ask for tickets!) ）

(Some brothers think that fifty percent of the profit is too much, I also think it is inappropriate, well, after all, it is the protagonist’s own personal brand, at least thirty percent, which is the most reasonable.) ）
