"President Li, that's the case. Do you think we still sign Wang Fei?" Chen Yadong told the negotiation process just now and asked.
Li Ning pondered and said, "ten million is really not a small number."
"If not, just slow down and see what happens?" Chen Yadong said.
Chen Yadong also knows that the recent performance of Li Ning brand shows a downward trend. Now, Li Ning Company is also in a dilemma.
However, Li Ning is actually much better than the previous two years.
Two years ago, Li Ning's sales fell even more terrible, and it was at a critical juncture.
But after Li Ning came out of the mountain in person, after some operation, now Li Ning brand is slowly climbing out of the trough.
Otherwise, Li Ning himself would not want to sign Wang Fei as the spokesman of his own brand.
"Time waits for no man! If we wait and see the situation, our competitors may take the opportunity," Li Ning added.
"What do you mean?" Chen Yadong asked.
"Let's see if we can push it down a little. If it's five million a year, we'll take it directly without hesitation." Li Ning said his bottom limit.
"Five million, I don't think Wang Fei will agree. The child is not old, but he is very calm during the negotiation. It seems that he is not in a hurry to sign the endorsement with us." Chen Yadong said.
"Five million is no good, so add a little more. If the other party refuses to cooperate every year, add several terms to the contract: first, if Wang Fei's average score in the first season of the NBA can reach 20 points, and if he is injured and suspended for no more than three games, then 10 million annual endorsement fee! Second, if the average score in the first season is less than 20 points, Only about 15 points, and if the number of injured suspension matches exceeds 3, the endorsement fee will be directly reduced to 5 million. Third, if Wang Fei's average score in the season reaches 25 points, his endorsement fee will be 12 million a year! "Li Ning said.
Chen Yadong thought for a moment and said, "if the injury stop three times a season is reduced to 5 million, I don't think he will agree. After all, NBA players are inevitably injured, and most players may be suspended for more than three games." Chen Yadong said.
"Talk about it! If he thinks there are too few injured stops, he should add them up to 5, 6, and no more than 10!" Li Ning said.
"OK, I see. Then I'll talk to him according to the conditions you said," Chen Yadong said.
With Li Ning's authorization, Chen Yadong has a bottom in his heart.
"There is another condition, that is, we can no longer receive advertising endorsements from peers," Li Ning said.
This is the exclusivity clause.
"This is a trade rule. Wang Fei will not put forward any unacceptable conditions for us," Chen Yadong said.
"Let's talk to him like this. This time, we must win his endorsement! Because the more I think about it, the more I feel that Wang Fei's future achievements must surpass Yao Ming," Li Ning said.
"I think so too. As long as his injuries are well controlled, maybe he can win the championship. And it's too meaningful to win the championship as a main player. After all, although previous Chinese players also won the championship, the gold content is too low," Chen Yadong said.
There are two Chinese players who have won the NBA championship before.
One is Sun Yue and the other is Bartel.
Sun Yue was won by the Lakers. That season, Sun Yue hardly played a few games, and his playing time was very few.
Bartel, on the other hand, won a championship in the Spurs in 2003.
"Yes! If the Rockets can win the championship this season under the leadership of Wang Fei, we will make a lot of money." Li Ning is also very excited.
After talking to Li Ning.
Chen Yadong washed his face.
He is very excited.
He returned to his seat.
The dishes have been served.
However, neither Wang Fei nor his female assistant moved chopsticks.
"Wang Fei, Eliza, start eating. Let's talk while eating." Chen Yadong said with a smile.
Wang Fei said, "Mr. Chen, I've had dinner. I think you haven't had dinner. Please eat some cushions quickly. Don't be hungry."
"Ha ha! It's more than 9:00 p.m. and you can eat together. It's like supper," Chen Yadong said.
Wang Fei is really a little hungry.
Therefore, he was not very polite, so he picked up chopsticks and started.
People say that eating supper with meals is bad for the stomach and easy to get fat.
However, for people like Wang Fei who often exercise and compete in a large amount, it's not easy to get fat.
While eating, Wang Fei thought to himself that Chen Yadong was very happy. It is estimated that he has been authorized by Li Ning?
Moreover, it is likely that the other party will agree to his request of 10 million endorsement fee per year.
Tut tut!
Are we going to be a multimillionaire soon?
Although Wang Fei signed a four-year contract of US $28.4 million with the Rockets, if it is converted into Chinese currency, it is also more than 100 million Chinese currency.
However, the money will be in hand for a while.
Especially in this first season, it's only a mere 800000 salary and nearly half of the taxes have to be deducted. All of them are only more than 400000 US dollars.
Wang Fei was also very happy when he thought of his boundless way of money.
Chen Yadong ate and chatted with Wang Fei.
He had hoped that Wang Fei would continue to talk about the topic just now, but Wang Fei didn't mean that at all.
Chen Yadong can't hold his breath.
"Wang Fei, let's talk about cooperation," Chen Yadong said.
"OK. Mr. Chen, I have put forward my conditions. The annual endorsement fee of 10 million can't be less." Wang Fei said.
Wang Fei will never give in to this condition easily.
He felt that he was worth the price.
The small fresh meat in the domestic entertainment industry is paid more than 100 million for a TV play, and tens of millions for any endorsement.
Are you worse than them?
Their popularity will be higher and higher in the future.
The influence and appeal will be greater and greater.
He will become a landmark figure in the Chinese sports world. Just like Liu Xiang of the 110 hurdles, Sun Yang of the Chinese swimming team, Yao Ming of the basketball team, Li Na of the tennis team and Lin Dan of the badminton team!
Even, I will be better than them!
How to calculate, it is Li Ning company that takes advantage of itself!
If you don't even give $10 million, you don't have to talk about it. Later, when I continue the fire, you regret it.
Chen Yadong smiled bitterly.
He knew that Wang Fei was not easy to fool.
"Wang Fei, support the national brands. As you just said, our country will be stronger only when the national brands are strong, won't it? 5 million a year, OK?" Chen Yadong put a high hat on Wang Fei and bargained.
I'll go!
Wang Feixin said that even supporting national brands have moved out.
Wang Fei smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, I have made a great concession to the 10 million endorsement fee a year. In fact, according to my future market, you can't sign me if you don't have 20 million."
Isn't it too much to boast about yourself?
Well, although people will say they have thick skin.
But I can't manage so much for small money.
Chen Yadong shook his head with a smile and said, "when Yao Ming was at his peak, the annual endorsement fee was only 20 million. Wang Fei, do you think you can compare with Yao Ming at his peak?"
Wang Fei blinked, smiled and said, "Yao Ming's peak period is just when he entered the NBA? Mr. Chen, in another ten games, you'll see if I can compare with Yao Ming in the peak period."
Wang Fei is very confident.
Of course, he also has this confidence.
As long as you have the blessing of sports King app, you just want to average 30 points this season, isn't it a problem?
Can't beat me? No way, I'm so strong!
Chen Yadong swallowed his saliva.
He didn't know how to go on.
What Wang Fei said is really justified.
He had to say, "Wang Fei, if you have to pay 10 million endorsement fees a year, it's OK. However, some terms must be added to the endorsement agreement..."
Chen Yadong repeated what Li Ning said.
Wang Fei knew as soon as he heard it. This must be Li Ning, the boss of Li Ning company.
After hearing this, he smiled and said, "the requirements are really high. Mr. Chen, you can look at the NBA database and see how many players have averaged 20 points in the season. Those who averaged 25 points in the season can already impact the regular season MVP. Zhan Huang's average score in the season is only 27 points."
"In addition, it is really harsh to suggest that you can only stop injury three times a season, because more than half of NBA players will exceed this number."
"Cough!"
Chen Yadong coughed.
He felt a little embarrassed, too.
The terms put forward by my boss are really a little too harsh.
"Wang Fei, if you think you can't reach it, we can talk about the conditions again. Three games can't be done and six games can be stopped. How about it?" Chen Yadong said.
Wang Fei shook his fingers with a smile and said, "otherwise, let's just bet on a bigger one!"
Bet?
Chen Yadong stared: "how to bet?"
Wang Fei said: "it can be written in the agreement: if my average score in the season reaches 25 points and the number of injury stops in the season does not exceed 3, you will give me 15 million endorsement fee every year! On the contrary, if I can't meet the two conditions just now, I just want you 8 million every year."
Chen Yadong immediately said, "but what if your average 25 points in the competition season are much lower? What should you do?"
Wang Fei took a deep look at Chen Yadong and said, "it's easy to do! If my season average is less than 15 points, I don't want any endorsement fee from you! I'll make a contribution to you in vain!"
This sentence is sonorous and powerful.
Chen Yadong was shocked.
In fact, the average score of 15 points in the season is very eye-catching for most NBA players.
Wang Fei said that if his average score was less than 15 points, one point would not be allowed!
How strong is this self-confidence to say such words?
"What you said is true?" Chen Yadong asked.
"Well! Promise is not easy, words must be practiced!" said Wang Fei.
"Well, I'll go to the bathroom. Excuse me," Chen Yadong said.
"Go." Wang Fei smiled and said.
Wang Fei knows what the other party wants to do in the bathroom.
The boss didn't give so much authority, and Wang Fei put forward new conditions. Naturally, he had to ask the boss for instructions.
Chen Yadong went to the bathroom again.
After Chen Yadong left, Eliza asked, "Wang, how are you talking?"
Wang Fei simply repeated what he had just talked to Chen Yadong.
Eliza said, "in fact, you really don't have to rush to sign endorsement contracts with your domestic brands. I think as long as your good performance continues, brands such as Nike, ADI and Reebok will find you." Eliza said, "by that time, you can sign a big contract of hundreds of millions of dollars."
Wang Fei smiled.
He knows, what Eliza said makes sense!
