Chapter 45 Interview Invitation

With 1000 million U.S. dollars in three years, there is at least 400 million U.S. dollars left after paying personal income tax, and at least 400 million U.S. dollars in RMB. Even according to the standard of Zhihu, Li Yue has achieved financial freedom. Li Yue is very tempted by this, and the average is more than 300 a year Wan, it can be said to be quite sincere, after all, John Wall only averages 500 million US dollars a year.

New Balance treats him as the No. [-] pick, which naturally has a bonus in the domestic market, but it also absolutely recognizes his future prospects.

This money is of great significance. Getting it can not only help the family live a better life, but also have more confidence to wait for a better offer after the rookie contract ends in the summer.

However, the current state of the Lakers is hot. As long as no players are seriously injured and reimbursed for the season, they will surely make the playoffs. At that time, they will definitely get a lot of playing time, which is enough to prove their strength to the entire league and fans.

Until then, teams that need small forwards will definitely rush to make offers, and they can pick and choose at will.

After thinking about it, it is still a choice between the present and the future. Li Yue decided to focus on the future and replied to Taylor that we will talk after the end of the season.

Two minutes after the email was sent, the phone beeped and Taylor called.

After beating around the bush and talking a lot, Li Yue finally understood Taylor's purpose, which was not to persuade him to sign a contract, but to worry about changing his agent.

It's understandable when you think about it, as long as you hug him, a big tree that is rising, you can make money, who wants to let go?

Li Yue has nothing to like about Taylor. He couldn't get the endorsement because he had too many injuries and his previous style of play was not good, but Taylor really didn't care about him. The two had a [-]% pure working relationship.

At the end of the chat between the two, Li Yue promised to give Taylor a priority to meet after the expiration of the brokerage contract.

Considering that both of them want to make money now, Li Yue proposed to try to find some commercial shooting opportunities, and Taylor said to act immediately.

After hanging up the phone, Li Yue continued to check. The second important email came from his cousin Li Zhi.

[Brother, since you came to our school, I have become a big celebrity now, and many classmates have pestered me to ask you for an autograph. Our basketball coach hopes that you will come again when you have time to give us detailed guidance. 】

There are many photos of Li Zhi playing with his classmates in the mail, and the boys are all in good spirits.

Li Yue tapped on the keyboard and replied: If there is a chance, he must go.

The third important email came as a surprise to him, from Cara Delevingne.

[I would like to express my deep apologies for the incident last time. Due to various considerations, I hope we will meet again by fate. 】

A woman said that it is best not to see her again, Li Yue had no objection to this, and immediately replied her best wishes.

The fourth important email came from Weibo, congratulating him on reaching 500 million fans and inviting him to become a crown member.

Li Yue directly marked it as spam and refused to accept it, so as not to spend time deleting it in the future.

...

At noon on NO.18, the entire Lakers team arrived in Boston by special plane and directly checked into the hotel next to the North Shore Garden.

The team still did not arrange joint training, but Li Yue and many teammates spontaneously conducted shooting training.

In the evening, the whole team had dinner together, and Nash paid for all the expenses.

Back at the hotel, Li Yue was about to relax and play a few turrets, when Taylor called again, not to discuss the sneaker contract, nor the commercial shooting, but to inform him to be a guest on the ABC talk show, the theme of which was to talk about his personal growth history.

Li Yue thinks that this kind of interview has little effect, but Taylor believes that it can help Americans deepen their understanding of him, especially the middle class with high consumption power, help expand popularity, and receive more and better advertisements. lay the foundation.
