Chapter 81 Mysterious Big Boss
After the game, Hu Lin and their teammates will naturally have to go through a lot of torture from the media reporters. Of course, you have to brag if you should brag, and you have to pretend to be B. Anyway, don’t tell those reporters Too many big truths, and that's right.

After returning to the hotel, Hu Lin was thinking about how to get rid of the fact that he was going to the nightclub tonight.

will?

Yes, it just didn't happen.However, Hu Lin can know what those animals are thinking with his knees. This is four consecutive victories, so why not go out and have fun?
As the saying goes, think of beautiful women for food and clothing, and think of Mimi for winning. The ancients are sincere and not deceived.

Therefore, Hu Lin vaccinated David Lee before, saying that recently he wanted to cultivate his body and mind, better adapt to life in the United States, and would not go to nightclubs or anything.

Dave Lee also simply replied, "Can you adapt to life in the United States without going to nightclubs?"

Hu Lin was speechless after hearing this, but, anyway, if you tell the truth, I won't go, what the heck.

Seeing that Hu Lin took out the hob meat pie, Lao Li also retreated.

"Knock, knock!" There was a knock on the door in Hu Lin's room.

"Who is it? Please come in! The door is unlocked." Hu Lin summed up and guessed that Lao Li's evil intentions were not dead.

"Oh, Egghead, it's me." Unexpectedly, it turned out to be Eddie Curry, he rarely came to his room, Hu Lin was really surprised.

"Eddie? Why are you here? Please come in!"

"You're welcome, I'm here to invite you to the party tonight, hehe. You understand!" Eddie looked at Hu Lin with a lewd smile on his face.

"Oh, I told David before that I really don't want to move, I just want to have a good sleep." This is actually true, after all, Hu Lin is still a living habit in China, and he really can't stand sleeping at 2 o'clock in the United States. It's early nightlife.

"I heard what David said before, but listen to me, it's different tonight!" Eddie said a little mysteriously.

"Why is it different?" Hu Lin was a little curious. Could it be that he was going to play S and M tonight?Or a war between humans and beasts?The taste of this tama is too heavy, but having said that, let's see it for myself, it's okay to have a long posture.

"My Uncle Weiss will be here, and that guy LBJ will be there too. Tonight will definitely be a very exciting party!"

"Uncle Weiss?" Hu Lin felt a little familiar.

"That's right, LBJ also calls him Uncle Wes." Eddie said with an expression that you understand.

"Ah~ I see, but I still don't want to go really, I still want to sleep, sorry. Please believe me, I really have no other intentions, I just want to go to bed early." Hu Lin suddenly realized, but immediately refused .

"Oh, is that girl in your family really that punctual?" Another lewd smile appeared on his face.

"Fuck! David, get out, this mouth is really Fuck!" Of course Hu Lin knew who would say these things.

"Hahaha... well, then I won't bother you anymore. Since you are going to recharge your batteries and go home to toss your little wild cat, I wish you a sweet dream, bye!" Eddie haha Laughed and left.

"Shit! Old Li, I didn't expect you to be such an eighth-wife." Hu Lin still complained about David Lee, but in his heart he was thinking about the 'Uncle Weiss' that the little shark said.

If Hu Lin's guess is correct, this 'Uncle Wes' should be that person, that mysterious, powerful, and eloquent one, which no one can figure out, William Wesley!

For this person, Hu Lin only knows about this person in later generations, and he really doesn't know much.

William Wesley, everyone likes to call him Wes, he is a mysterious figure, he has never appeared in any public publication on the list of professional sports rights, but his power is daunting, NBA The well-known columnist Scoop Jackson once publicly stated in his column: "I believe that Phil Knight (President of Nike) is the most powerful person in the field of professional sports after Wes Wesley. "However, according to public information, this figure who is more powerful than Phil Knight has never been the agent of any player.

Weiss can avoid the tracking of the media, and he can silently manipulate major events that have happened or will happen in the NBA.To give a recent example, in 2002, he bought an apartment in Cleveland. You must know that he was already rich at this time, but he bought this apartment not for anything else, but for the convenience of commuting to and from St. Vincent High School in Akron. , because that high school is LBJ's alma mater.Therefore, Nike is very grateful to Weiss, who helped Nike beat Reebok and Adidas in a sponsorship competition battle to sign LeBron James at a record high price.But Reebok will not dare to have any complaints about Wes Wesley. In 2004, Wesley followed the dream team to Greece, just to be on the Queen Mary super luxury cruise ship with his " Nephew" - Iverson for company.And the latter is Reebok's biggest player right now.Not only that, LeBron directly changed his agent, Leon Rose is LeBron's current agent, and he is also a friend of Wes, and the great LeBron will call Wes affectionately , for 'Uncle Wes'.

Let’s talk about Iverson again. I mentioned his relationship with Brown before, but in fact, with Brown’s temper, many big-name players basically have some conflicts with him.The same is true for Iverson, but how can Iverson and Brown still have a harmonious honeymoon period in the end?This is the credit of Weiss. He took the initiative to persuade his eldest nephew to listen to Old Brown. Although Iverson and Brown still broke up in the end, the 76ers can enter the finals. Uncle Si!

Compared with the above things, why can you just take the special plane of each NBA team casually, or like in 04, the dream team stipulated that players cannot bring their families to participate in the Olympic Games, but he can ignore this rule; Players get some parties; help Jordan prepare the casino; serve as Rodman's bodyguards; things like that are really nothing.

How did such an awesome guy make his fortune?

It’s really a legendary story. In the early 80s, Weiss, who only had a high school diploma, worked as a salesman in a sporting goods store in New Jersey, responsible for the sales of high-end basketball shoes. It is said that his performance was quite good, and he was a salesman. good material.However, sales, everyone knows that the pressure is not small, so he wants to release the pressure, gambling has become his best method, and he has naturally become a frequent visitor to the casino.

Atlantic Casino, the largest casino in the eastern United States, is located at the northern end of Absecon Island in the southeast of New Jersey, on the border with Pennsylvania. One day in 1984, Michael Jordan, who had just entered the NBA, met William here. Wesley, so Wes's life was completely changed, and Jordan's life was also influenced by Wes to some extent.

Weiss is not an ordinary businessman or agent. He learned a skill from selling shoes, that is, communicating with people, not ordinary communication, but nourishing your heart like chicken soup for the soul, and you will feel You realize that he is actually helping you, and that all his advice is beneficial to you. You should be friends with such a person.Just like buying shoes, Weiss is not selling, but helping his customers, so he won Jordan's trust.

There are even rumors that he introduced Jordan's wife, Juanita, to Jordan. Jordan is also interesting enough to directly take out 10% of the shares of the trapeze brand in return.Of course, the matter of the shares of the Flying Man brand is definitely just a rumor. The amount is too huge, and Mr. Qiao is not such an idiot.However, Uncle Weiss did a lot to find women for stars.

After becoming close friends with Jordan, Weiss' path is basically unimpeded. Jordan, who has a violent personality, bad gambling, aggressive, and lonely, can listen to him. Do other NBA players need to think about it?

It is said that among the more than 400 players in the entire NBA league, at least 300 recognize Wes as their uncle, which is the origin of Uncle Weiss!

Wes has no job, he doesn't understand law at all, and after graduating from high school, he doesn't need to study law, so he can't be an agent, but he doesn't need to be a damn agent.

Leon Ross, if everyone can find his information, your jaw will drop in amazement.The aforementioned LeBron James, 'Melon' Anthony, Chris Paul, Richard Hamilton, Eddie Curry, and the one who will enter the league later, Bargnani, pay attention, this is a white man !Wes has no idea of ​​racism! , OJ Mayo, etc., a large number of well-known stars are his customers.It turns out that he is the most successful agent in the NBA. However, Leon Rose's money is less than half of Weiss's, because there is an agreement between them that every time a player is signed, a large portion will be given to Weiss.You are not happy?Leon, unless you don't want to be a broker anymore.

But everyone, please pay attention, this is where Weiss's business is brilliant. He didn't let the more than 300 "big nephews" become his friends' customers. Yes, he just helped these people. How should I say it? They are amazing!

When he heard this person's name, Hu Lin didn't even want to go to this party. He was different from those illiterate and semi-literate NBA players. Yes, moreover, Hu Lin doesn't like having an extra uncle.

Originally, I had a close contact with LBJ today, and Hu Lin only felt that facing that prematurely aging face, he had the urge to be called uncle, but after going to the party, what does he call Uncle Weiss?Is it called Master Weiss?

So, forget it and sleep well today.
