Chapter 28 The atmosphere is on fire

Among the more big names are Yili and Mengniu.

Wu Di took advantage of the lack of getting off the plane and passing customs in Los Angeles, and conducted preliminary telephone communication with senior executives of the two brands.

The other party did want to sign an endorsement contract with him, but refused to make a offer now, just wanted to ask him to find time in China to discuss it in detail.

I guess he was afraid of quoting the price in advance, so Wu Di did not show the right level and the endorsement fee was wasted.

At this time, the disadvantage of not having a broker will appear. If you are an ordinary young man, when you encounter this situation, you are not familiar with the market price and have never carried out psychological expectations.

When actually negotiating, it is easy to be tricked by brand negotiation experts and suffer economic losses.

But this is not a problem. After he called Yili's marketing director, he was careful when he called Mengniu again:

"...Mr. Qin, the marketing director in Yili, has already quoted the price. 5 million yuan for one year, yours?"

"What, Lao Qin has quoted the price? Then we have signed it for 8 million yuan for two years... Well, this is just a preliminary price, and we have to wait for the details later..."

The representative on Mengniu was startled by Wu Di's words and blurted out the expected offer. However, when he said it, he realized that there might be a problem and added another sentence later.

Wu Di hung up the phone and signed RMB 8 million for two years, equivalent to US$1 million for two years, which is basically the price.

In this way, Nike's 4-year contract of $9 million seems much more conscientious.

Moreover, with Nike's endorsement contract, he will also have some traffic tilts, and the asking price will be higher when talking about other brands in the future...

When Pierre suddenly called him:

"Wu, since we met last month, I have won you a more valuable contract, which is still $9 million, but the time has been shortened to 3 years!"

Wu Di was delighted when he heard this. Although it was still 9 million US dollars, it was changed to 3 years in 4 years, and the contract amount increased by 33%!

"Isn't it good? I have made an appointment with the general marketing manager of our headquarters. When you come back, we can meet at any time. At that time, the contract amount will still increase again..."

"Okay, thank you! Let's talk in detail when you come back to meet."

Wu Di hung up the phone, but after thinking about it, he felt that Pierre's quotation change this time might also hide deeper considerations from Nike's management.

If he has signed a contract for 4 years, if he is troubled by injuries, then he is actually worthless during the injury period. Then, if signing for 3 years is the same as signing for 4 years...

After all, no one knows that he has the opportunity to get an injury-free badge. Judging from the cases on the field, at this point, no Asian defender can prove himself in the NBA arena...

With these thoughts, Wu Di passed the customs security check and boarded the Knight's special plane again.

On the plane, Arina was still sitting next to him, but this time she changed into a royal blue pajama, and the penny was hanging on her slender instep.

"What's wrong, Di?"

Arina asked, with concern in her silver-gray eyes.

Wu Di thought for a moment. After more than a month of getting along, he had already trusted this medical consultant very much, so he discussed with her the dilemma he is facing now.

"The first endorsement is very important. The contract amount determines your future value. The specific brand will affect the future tone..."

Arina gestured a balance with her slender fingers and then said:

"Just like your debut, China Travel Service is a resource that the league has invested in you. It is more likely that Nike will give you a long contract amount because of seeing this..."

"In addition, the first show will arrange for you to win the championship last season. In fact, it can be seen that the league is really supporting you. If you can play in this game, it will be a big hit, but if you don't play because of nervousness, there will be a lot of things.

To put it, the opponent was the champion of last season, and there is still a second chance in the future..."

Wu Di thought for a moment, and said in a little scared:

"The endorsement of Yili and Mengniu has to be slow. They are so anxious now that they want to get rid of the influence of the milk powder incident. If I accept it, other brands will have concerns when they look for me..."

"Yes……"

The two chatted all the way, and Arina was worthy of being a Harvard academic master. After talking about Wu Di, she understood her ideas clearly.

Cooperation can only be stabilized when both parties have equal strengths. Now Wu Di’s strength is actually a question for brand owners. They want to establish contact first and seize the initiative.

The price quoted is just their verbal promise. Such a large amount of cooperation will be impossible to negotiate for a while.

But if there is contact in advance and wait for Wu Di to perform later, he can lead other brands to cooperate one step ahead of the company.

If Wu Di doesn't perform, they may not admit it...

Therefore, the focus of the problem at this stage is still what Wu Di's strength is.

When the plane arrived at Baiyun Airport in Yangcheng, it was already late at 11 o'clock on the 12th. Wu Di breathed the familiar air of the motherland and felt relieved and kind.

At the airport terminal, Wu Suhua, who had been away for a long time, came to pick him up.

The mother and son hugged each other, and at this moment, the language was pale and the embrace was warm.

Wu Di is a single-parent family. The man abandoned his mother early, but Wu Suhua was enough.

The team and his group arrived at the hotel. Wu Di fell to bed after checking in.

Tomorrow is the game, and he started to make jet lag on the way, with a severe headache, and eating recovery essence doesn't work, so he can only sleep.

I woke up again, it was 1:00 pm on the 13th.

Take another sip of the old hot soup cooked by my mother and feel refreshed instantly!

All of your status is back!

Wu Suhua made a large casserole of lotus bone soup to remove dampness and strengthen the spleen and clear heat. All Cavaliers players have one.

"Di, is your mom a chef?"

Gibson finished a bowl of soup in just a few sips, and couldn't help but ask with the boiled lotus pods in the bowl.

This instantly attracted the approval of a group of teammates. They were shocked. Can ordinary lotus pods make such delicious soup?

But their English speaking speed was too fast, and Wu Suhua couldn't understand it. He thought they had an objection to Tang, so he quickly asked what happened.

Wu Di couldn't laugh or cry, so he had to explain patiently.

"Scared, it seems I'm going to learn English well!"

When Wu Suhua saw that the soup was recognized by everyone, she smiled happily.

"Why don't you move to Cleveland? Learning English in America will definitely be quick!"

"Let's talk about it, mom will consider it!"

Wu Di had no choice but to nod. He had mentioned this before that he wanted his mother to enjoy a peaceful life, but parents of this generation of Chinese are used to working hard. Even if their children can make money, they are unwilling to leave their jobs.

...

At 4 pm, the group took the team bus to Yangcheng International Sports Performing Arts Center.

"Is this China? Why is it different from the image of riding a bicycle in a military uniform on TV..."

On the way, a group of teammates were surprised by the skyline of Yangcheng. Yangcheng will hold the Asian Games this year, and the city's appearance has been greatly updated. The small waist was built last year, and finally the atmosphere of an international metropolis.

Except for a few people who have participated in the China Tournament, most of the Cavaliers have seen the true face of China City for the first time.

It is better to see it at first sight. They instantly refreshed their impression of China, and several players looked at Wu Di with a hint of respect.

“More prosperous than Cleveland!”

"I think only Los Angeles can fight for the arm..."

"Yes, there are so many hot girls..."

"Where? Where are the hot girls?"

"Get out, I won't look for it myself. This hot girl is mine!"

...

Halfway through the road, Gibson suddenly asked:

"Wu, can you invite us to this nightclub tonight?"

Wu Di looked out the window and found that they were passing by a newly opened giant nightclub, which looked very high-end:

"It depends on your mood."

After the game, they will have two days off, and it is not a big problem to indulge in one night. However, Wu Di didn't know what time the game interview would be delayed until the end, so he did not fully agree.

But Gibson seized on this issue:

"Take us there if you win?"

"Damn, you really dare to think about it!"

"What's there to think about? It's just a preseason. We'll just play for a while! Brothers, let's hear it, let's beat the Lakers!"

"Fuck the Lakers!"

When I dug a trough, the atmosphere suddenly ignited!
