overlooking the pitch

Chapter 114
The selection of this All-Star starter is not only a recognition of Anson's strength, but also a recognition of Anson's appeal in the market. This vote is a fan vote, but it values ​​​​the player's market appeal.

After this incident, Anson's current endorsement prices have skyrocketed. Nike and Adidas have begun to propose their contracts to Anson, and their prices have already begun to impress Leon Rose.

Nike's 7-year 5000 million dollars, a pair of signature shoes every year and Adidas 700 million dollars per year plus 5% profit sharing of signature shoes.

The contracts given by the two largest sports equipment companies are very large. They fully reflect the respect for Anson. This price is higher than the prices of the two best rookies, Derrick Rose and Tyreke Evans. Not a lot.

An Sheng hesitated when he heard the offers from the two teams, and said to Leon Rose: "If possible, I hope to choose Nike."

"Oh, I can't see that you are still a loyal user of Nike?" Leon Ross said with a smile. It is obvious that the contract given by Adidas is more lucrative, but his heart is inclined to Nike.

An Sheng shook his head with a smile. He would not say that there is such a curse about Adidas in China.

At the beginning, Adidas spent a lot of money and assembled the most famous superstars under their banner at that time. They were Gilbert Arenas, Tracy McGrady, Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Chang West Billups and others compete with Nike in the North American basketball equipment market.

However, this situation did not last long. Chauncey Billups, the MVP of the 04 Finals, plummeted due to injuries and was finally displaced shortly after.

Kevin Garnett was also seriously injured in 09, and then in the 10 Finals he was counter-suppressed by Paul Gasol, who was suppressed by himself in 08.

Gilbert Arenas is even more unbearable. Before signing the contract, he was the Mr. 60-pointer who competed with Kobe Bryant, the representative of the counterattack of the second-round show, and one of the inspirational players. After signing the contract, he became a famous player. The cancerous contract, and was suspended for [-] games directly because of the gun incident in the locker room.

Tracy McGrady has simply struggled with injuries throughout his career. His back injury has affected him since his two scoring titles, and his strength has declined over time.

Even if An Sheng is a person who doesn't believe in ghosts and gods very much, he is a little afraid of the magical Adi curse spread in China.

Leon Rose said with a smile: "Anyway, there is no hurry, Ann, I hope you can wait until the end of this season to talk about it. I am still very confident that you will win the best rookie."

Leon Rose rejected two top North American equipment companies one after another, and his reason was that Anson was seriously preparing for the playoffs, which reflected their ambitions, unparalleled ambitions, they wanted higher prices, Better treatment, Leon Rose can clearly see the vast Chinese market standing behind Ansheng, Yao Ming is an insider, since ancient times, insiders have not been very good at selling shoes, even the big shark who is the MVP of the three consecutive finals None of them got a big contract with Nike.

"He rejected our contract? Is Leon crazy now because of LeBron's contract? Do you really think that the Chinese in his hand is the next LeBron?" Nike's Marketing Director Carter Wolf Erle angrily smashed the folder in his hand at the desk in front of him, and the marketing staff who reported to him felt a little bit sorry for the desk worth tens of thousands of dollars. After people have talked, the table in front of them will always be subject to an indiscriminate disaster.

The same scene happened at Adidas headquarters, in the last battle for Lebron James, they lost to Nike, just because they tried to save a little money and lost to Nike by almost a quarter market share.

"Hey, he must be taken down. Did you hear that? If we are not satisfied with the price just now, we will continue to increase the price. We must get him. Believe me, he will definitely become our representative. Of course, maybe not It’s not the North American market!” Adidas’ marketing director, Thor Fergus, seemed more courageous this time, facing Nike’s tight pressure and the rapid decline of their representative stars, they must support a new one that can fight against Nike. representatives.

"Mr. Thor, our price has already reached 700 million US dollars per year plus 5% of the profit share of the signature shoes. Is it really higher? Moreover, they announced that this time they will continue their conversation after the regular season. "Adi's team leader who was in charge of negotiating was surprised that the price this time was almost comparable to the price for LeBron James in 03, but now their goal this time is only the No. 8 pick from China.

Thor Fergus frowned. He didn't expect that such a favorable price would not impress him. Is this Chinese man's request so high, or is it the request of an old fox from Leon Rose?He couldn't help but fell into deep thought, and said after a while: "Since they want to start negotiations after the end of the season, then agree to them, and I will talk about it in person."

The director of the marketing department was a little shocked. No matter which rookie was before, no matter how strong he played, for example, Tyreke Evans, who is known as the next LeBron James, has not received such attention.

Thor Fergus shook his head. Could it be that his subordinates really couldn't see the vast Chinese market behind Ansheng?It's one of the most basketball-loving places in the world, so it's no wonder I'm losing ground against Nike.

As for signing after the season, it's very simple. He understands Leon Rose's idea, doesn't he just want Anson to get a higher value, more honors and a better contract?He smiled and watched the Clippers game being broadcast live on the TV. An Sheng cut off the opponent's pass and flew all the way to help his teammate Blake Griffin complete the dunk dunk, which directly ignited the Clippers in an instant. All the atmosphere of the boat home.

The supervisor left his office, and Thor Fergus, who was already very angry, put a smile on his face, okay!You will become stronger and stronger, we have been prepared for a long time, we are not afraid that you want too much, as long as you become stronger, then you are the player that suits us and the player we want.
