NBA: Interior Overlord!

Zhang Tao’s brokerage contract was finally given to the largest agency in the NBA – CAA!

Zhang Tao has always believed in the principle of strong alliance, and he will not cooperate with some agents who do not have fame and protection.

Not every independent agent has the same talent and luck as Rich and Paul.

Agents of NBA players are important to players, and choosing the wrong one can delay the player’s development on and off the court.

Although CAA’s Leonrose has a higher commission, his reputation is very good.

The NBA has regulations that the agent’s commission in a single contract cannot exceed 4% of the contract, and Zhang Tao’s agent contract with Ross is 3%, and then the advertising commission is 10%.

At noon on the day the broker contract was signed, Ross’s team began to contact all kinds of endorsements received in Zhang Tao’s mailbox.

That night, Ross brought a lot of documents to the hotel room where Zhang Tao and the king were staying.

“Zhang, take a look, these are partners who want to find you to endorse.”

Zhang Tao picked up the endorsement documents and looked at them one by one.

Professional people do professional things, Zhang Tao instantly felt that it was really right to find the biggest partner.

Very professional, they prepared all the preliminary work and finalized the basic agreement framework in one afternoon.

“What’s your suggestion?” Zhang Tao asked Ross, Zhang Tao was not in a hurry to make his own choice.

These endorsement contracts range from 2 to 5 years and cost $1 million to $10 million….

But obviously not all of them followed.

“Zhang, your image is a strong, fierce tough guy image, I recommend taking this brand image in the future.” Ross offered his professional advice off.

“What’s the good about this image?”

“It may help you attract more women who are willing to spend money for you, and who have a lot of financial power.”

“OK, then do what you want.”

Zhang Tao doesn’t pay much attention to these details, and endorsements are just making money.

“The endorsement of body lotion is not accepted, the endorsement of cosmetics is not accepted, the endorsement of BMW can be accepted, and AirAsia’s can also be accepted…”

Ross used his professional ability to analyze the pros and cons of one endorsement contract after another for Zhang Tao.

Zhang Tao nodded in approval from time to time, and raised different opinions from time to time.

Zhang Tao is not a Xiaobai who does not understand anything, and he does not only listen to Ross’s arrangement, and he himself will make a lot of judgments.

In the end, the two discussed for a long time before finalizing these endorsement products and contracts!!

For Zhang Tao, although he is not short of money, he does not want to make money.

The more money is naturally the better.

Zhang Tao signed 5 endorsements, which are probably worth about 30 million US dollars, and the time is generally 2 years.

Zhang Tao’s current endorsement price is about 3 million a year, which is the price of a first-line star, James is only 5 million US dollars a year, note that these endorsements are not sneaker endorsements.

Zhang Tao only needs to shoot advertisements, occasionally send advertising tweets, and then usually they have one or two events to attend, and in life to pay attention to the use of their products, can not let the media photograph Zhang Tao using competitors’ products and so on…

Of course there are many, many other fine print….

This price is already incredible for Zhang Tao, who has played 8 games.

Of course, the large market of 1.3 billion people and the ability of the outside world to judge Zhang Tao as a superstar early are big pluses.

After talking about these endorsements, Ross opened the last topic that needed to be communicated, and this topic was also the most important topic of the night.

“Zhang, as for the sneaker contract, what are your thoughts?” Zhang Tao’s mailbox has a lot of communication emails from sneaker brands, and Ross has to ask Zhang Tao what his opinion is.

“I want the focus to be biased towards our domestic brands.”

Zhang Tao is not a fan of shoes, what kind of shoes he wears does not affect him much, Zhang Tao is very patriotic, and instinctively wants to support them in this regard.

Otherwise, domestic products always sign some balloon stars….. It’s a bit of a drop.

“But Nike has a lot of influence on the league, and if it is the same performance and statistics, a lot of honors will belong to their players.” Ross thought that Zhang Tao did not understand the influence of the brand, and he told Zhang Tao by the way about the current situation of sneaker brands in the league.

Brands such as Li Ning and Anta are certainly inferior to Nike in the NBA.

“So, what if the performance is one level above them? Do they dare to hack my honor? Zhang Tao knew what Ross meant, but he didn’t care.

“Haha, that’s not it, the alliance has its own operating rules, and these brands can’t interfere.” Ross admired Zhang Tao’s self-confidence.

Sure enough, this guy is a domineering beast!!

Zhang Tao is his employer, and everything is still based on Zhang Tao’s wishes.

“What about the price? Which benchmark do you want me to talk about? All-Star? Ross asked.

“Talk to James Biao, Durant, Curry about the contract price and privileges.”

Support domestic products are supported, but money cannot be less.

“This…”

Ross felt a little embarrassed, although Zhang Tao played 7 consecutive games that could be called O’Neal’s performance.

But the shoes of the center have always been not as good as the shoes of the defenders, and such a request is difficult to negotiate.

All-Star-level endorsement contracts are already high, and Ross is pretty sure.

“Don’t worry, even if I lose an endorsement contract for a season, I don’t care, even if they don’t want to now, I think it won’t be long before they have someone agreeing.”

Zhang Tao is full of confidence in his strength.

In the end, Ross still compromised, or that sentence, Zhang Tao is the employer, he just needs to implement it in place.
