Chapter 328 Negotiating a Six-Year Contract
This time, Neil saw the true face of KG. After all, this country is a business field. There is no real emphasis on love and righteousness, only selfish desires and money. He regards water as a money worshiper, but KG is really too I don’t understand Neil anymore. He wanted to buy out his basketball dream with $20. When KG mentioned the price, Neil laughed in contempt and thought, “Hehe... $20? This is too cheap. Well, I don’t have a lot of value now, and my annual salary is several million dollars. Besides, for me, basketball dreams cannot be measured by money. If I don’t try it at the beginning, I may not show my true colors. ?”

KG stared at Neil walking into the apartment with both joy and sadness, but a little dull eyes, took a deep breath, looked up at the sky, lightly slapped his cheek and said: "You idiot , was so humiliated by that kid Neil that he was powerless."

His frustrated and frustrated voice still echoed in the air. He didn't want to stay here for a moment, and he walked away quickly, hating Neil deeply in his heart, as if the seeds of grievances between the two had been planted since then, and they would meet again on the battlefield. , It is the two heavens of ice and fire, and there is no brotherhood anymore.

On the third day after KG came to look for Neal, Neal received a call from his agent, saying that the Detroit Pistons were satisfied with his performance in the Timberwolves throughout the season and were interested in him. However, regarding salary and what he cared most about On the issue of ball rights, the two sides have to sit down and discuss in detail.

In the end, the agent told Neil that he had already discussed with the owner of the Pistons team, and the specific interview time was set for next Saturday, so that Neil must be present at that time.

Neil told his parents and Lavender the news, and they were very happy. Finally, Lavender said that he wanted to accompany Neil to the interview, and Neil had no doubts.

At first, Neil wanted to propose a deal to the boss of the Timberwolves first, but after thinking about it, his parents and Lavender also strongly opposed him to propose a deal to the boss in advance, because if the interview fails and he loses his job, let him go to the interview first. If the conditions offered by the Pistons are basically in line with the conditions they imagined, then talk to the owner of the Wolves.

In the past entire season, he was busy practicing all day long and pursuing his so-called dreams. He spent too much time alone in the basketball training hall, and had almost no free time to accompany his parents and Lavender. A few days before the interview, I had a new plan, that is to accompany my family to play, go shopping, and take my family on vacation casually.

Because suddenly he understood a lot. While he was busy chasing his dreams, he should also stop to accompany his relatives and friends from time to time, so that when his dreams come true one day, someone will share all the sadness and joy with him. There will be someone to revel in all the surprises and hard-won things with me.

These days with my family, I feel that time flies faster than usual. I think that tomorrow I will go to Detroit, the city of automobiles, to negotiate with the Pistons. It may take several days to go back and forth. However, as long as His wishes and dreams since he was a child can be realized, and this little bit of hard work is nothing.

At ten o'clock the next morning, the agent came to meet him at his house. He prepared the food and drinks on the way, and drove to Detroit Motor City with Lavender and the agent. When the agent mentioned it in his ear, he felt very kind. When he was about to drive here today, his heart was filled with inexplicable joy. It seemed that his instinct told him that this city might bring His unexpected surprises and surprises, although he has not been to this city yet, he inexplicably likes the name Detroit, maybe because he likes cars, or this city will really bring him want credit.

With such an idea in his heart, he flew to the city at a speed of no less than 120km/h.

When they arrived in the city, Detroit owners, coaches and executives drove up to meet them.

Neil felt respected like never before, and he was instantly ready to give everything to this team and to this city.

Lavender and his agent accompanied the team owner, the coach took Neil's car, and followed several executives. Along the way, the boss and coach chatted happily with the three of them, but many topics revolved around Neil. They all said that Neal is a rare player in the NBA who combines defense, breakthrough, organization, and super scoring ability. If the contract can be reached through negotiation, Neal is willing to stay with the Pistons. Maybe he can make up for the team's current existence. The problem.

Neil heard the team's heavyweights praise him like this, but he was still not arrogant at all. He always smiled with humility and no inferiority: "Although it is much better than when he first entered the league, there is still a lot of room for improvement. Reality and imagination. The goal is still far away, but I believe that as long as we are neither humble nor overbearing, and never give up, sooner or later, what we imagined will become reality.”

Neil's words of being neither humble nor overbearing immediately raised the impression in the minds of the boss and the coach to another level, making them feel that Neil's future is limitless, and the idea of ​​​​deciding to sign him is increasing.

During the chat, the agent heard the evaluation of Neil by the team leaders, and he knew it well. They didn't come in vain this time. Neil has a relationship with the team owner and coach, and they all have a very good impression of him. , I really hope that this negotiation can be successful, so that I can make a good fortune, and more importantly, Neil can get what he wants in his heart.

Neil, Lavender, and the agent came to the Pistons headquarters in a car led by the team executives. When they entered the gate, they were attracted by the photos of the heroes who had won the championship on the wall. He stared at the photos and did not want to leave in a hurry, but his Lavender's eyes were accidentally noticed by Lavender. Lavender walked towards him, patted him on the shoulder and said in a low voice: "Honey, I have confidence in you, come on, I believe that one day your jersey can hang here just now." , your photos will also become thicker with the passage of time, and will be admired by more and more people."

Neil nodded, looked at the agent and the boss, and the coach also walked up the stairs while talking.

So, Neil reminded Lavender: "Lavender, hurry up, keep up, don't look around!"

Lavender nodded and followed Neil with small steps.

The boss of the Pistons attached great importance to this interview, so the interview location was chosen in his office.

During the entire process of the interview, only the boss and Neil walked into the room, and the rest of the people waited outside the door, and no one could step in. Therefore, Lavender and the agent were restless, thinking about this. Well, I don't know how the interview went.

After they waited outside for an hour and a half, the office door creaked, and Neil came out of the office with an unconcealable joy on his face, rushed to Lavender and the agent, and hugged them excitedly: "The deal is over, Since I only care about ball rights and status in the team, money is not the most important thing, so I finally joined the Pistons with a six-year $3500 million contract from the new season. Year."

"Yes, yes, better than you in Timberwolves, congratulations..."

Neil looked at Lavender and smiled affectionately, and gestured his favorite OK gesture.

Now the Pistons have a good deal, and then they can decisively propose a deal to the Timberwolves owner. If he disagrees, because he is an unrestricted player, he can jump out of the contract and join the Detroit Pistons to start a new basketball career. How many rising periods, since the Timberwolves can't give him what he wants, then one yard is one yard, and the favor of the team owner and coach to him is the grace of knowledge, which has nothing to do with the inner pursuit.

Therefore, he has already figured out what to say, and he can leave the whole thing and KG clean.
