The name of the Denver Nuggets' home arena is: Pepsi Center.
When Fanci and his teammates entered the arena on a bus, Fanci's agent representative was sitting in a rented office in Los Angeles negotiating an endorsement contract with a PepsiCo representative.
Fanci's crazy achievements in the All-Star Game have pushed Fanci's reputation to an incredible level. He is the first player in history to complete a Grand Slam during the All-Star Weekend, and he is still a rookie. Moreover, he entered the All-Star Game
The status is still in the form of 'extra-staff'.
At that time, everyone thought that he was going to look familiar, and that he might even be frozen by the angry Chris Paul. But what they didn't expect was that not only was Fan Xi not frozen by Paul, he was also not targeted and torn by the superstars in the East.
broken.
On the contrary, he came out of nowhere, showed his bravery at critical moments, and teamed up with Nowitzki to direct the counterattack at critical moments. In the end, he was awarded the All-Star MVP.
Although some voices said after the game that Nowitzki deserved the MVP due to his great contribution. However, the data of the German tank could not be compared to Vandenheede, and the final assassination was completed by Vandenheede.
Therefore, Fan Xi's reputation has been pushed to unprecedented heights.
If we say that before the All-Star Weekend, the discussion about rookies was mainly focused on which of the two No. 1 picks should be the best rookie. After the All-Star Weekend, people were more concerned about whether Fansheem would become the strongest rookie in the 2010 class.
Although Fan Xi came from a "humble" background and was an undrafted player, the miracles he has created have surpassed the surprises brought to people by the two top picks.
Therefore, Lu Yuan naturally said to the person in charge of Pepsi-Cola: "We get 5 million US dollars from you every year, which is not excessive at all."
Tony, the person in charge of Pepsi-Cola, was simply stunned. He looked at the yellow-skinned agent with a big mouth in disbelief. He originally thought that he could easily get the deal. After all, Pepsi-Cola's global advertising is very amazing.
Yes, they can help the spokesperson gain higher influence. He originally thought that this would be a resource exchange transaction, and that Fan Xi would be paid an endorsement fee of US$700,000 to 800,000 per year at most.
"Did you know? Even LeBron James's endorsement fee from Coca-Cola will not exceed 5 million US dollars." Tony suppressed the fire in his heart and said to Lu Yuan: "Jack is just a rookie who has just emerged."
Lu Yuan shrugged his shoulders and said in an unquestionable tone: "Then you can go to LeBron James. Coca-Cola is also actively contacting us now. Their ambitions for the Asian market far exceed your imagination. I have read your reports.
, no matter which dimension you look at, there is a certain distance between you and Coca-Cola.”
"I thought you were here to beg us and ask us to help you defeat Coca-Cola and surpass Coca-Cola in terms of popularity and share in the Asia-Pacific market. However, your approach frustrated me. Mr. Tony, you have no sincerity in negotiating."
Lu Yuan stood up, spread his palms and said, as if to chase away guests: "I'm sorry, I have to meet with the marketing director of the Ferrari brand next. They have more important things to discuss with us than you."
Tony didn't expect it. He didn't expect that he just had a shocked expression. He didn't even lower the price. Lu Yuan forcefully announced that he would stop contacting him.
Are they always this strong?
Tony's face looked very embarrassed. Lu Yuan did talk about their pain points. Pepsi-Cola is the second largest beverage brand in the world, but its market share is far behind Coca-Cola. It is rapidly expanding in Asia.
.As we all know, Asia, especially China, has become the world's largest consumer goods market.
Fan Xi is now the healthiest and most influential sports star in China. If he is invited to endorse, his influence will be self-evident.
"I need to ask our president if he can give me some time." Tony requested.
Lu Yuan pointed to the door of the office: "Of course, but I don't want to see you performing oboe on the phone in front of me. There are comfortable sofas outside, as well as delicious snacks and various flavors of coffee."
Tony Starks felt it was more difficult than ever, he just nodded and walked out.
When walking out, Lu Yuan also gave him a little advice: "By the way, I forgot to tell you, Mr. Starks. The price offered by Coca-Cola is very competitive. Also, there is one thing you must remember.
.Since Jack joined the NBA, he has won both of his two duels with LeBron James and was the best player in the game."
Lu Yuan's aggressive and condescending negotiation style made Tony want to lose his temper.
But now, he is indeed in a weak position. The initiative lies on the other side of the road.
He had no choice but to smile and nod, and walked out of the door politely. He walked out of the door, and as soon as he came to the window to call the president, he found that the receptionist in front of him had invited the Ferrari representative into Lu Yuan's office.
As Lu Yuan showed, Jack has no shortage of partners now.
His market value is astonishing.
Although there may still be some gap between him and the league's top superstars like LeBron James, his radiation range is wider and he can deeply explore the Asian market, especially the Chinese market.
Pepsi-Cola still has doubts about Fanci. They are worried that Fanci has not been tempered for several seasons and his playing style is not yet mature in all aspects. If everyone is lost, the huge investment will be in vain.
The president there said to Tony Starks: "We will make a decision after watching this game. Tonight, Jack Fan will face two elite point guards from the Denver Nuggets."
"Although Ty Lawson and Raymond Felton are not as famous as Paul and Deron, they are both in their prime and very strong. If Jack Fan can survive this, the possibility of his future decline will be reduced.
Greatly lowered. In this way, we can make some constructive offers to him. However, it must not exceed US$5 million." The president said there.
Then, he asked Tony: "The game has begun. Can you hold steady for three hours?"
Tony over there raised his head and looked at the receptionist who was queuing up the customers who came to meet him. He said: "It's not a big problem. His office is full of people and many sponsors are visiting. The Ferrari representative just came in.
"
Forehead….
The person on the other end of the phone was stunned for a moment. Then he said, OK, you'll be waiting for the final result of the game.
…
Half an hour before the game started, Kobe Bryant was still asking Fan Xi, who was suffering from altitude sickness: "Jack, are you sure you can play tonight?"
Fan Xi nodded. The problem is not a big one. Although he is a little dizzy and short of breath, the symptoms are quickly relieving. He has strong confidence in his body's adaptability.
Next to them, Lamar Odom and Barnes have been trying to persuade Fan Xi to stop fighting tonight. They heard Raymond Felton shouting at Fan Xi in the VIP room, and they were afraid that Fan Xi would be beaten by Felton.
Body crushing. After all, that guy Felton can even overturn a rugby player. How can Fan Xi with such a small physique be able to withstand it?
They thought that Fan Xi didn't know about Felton's provocation.
Also has good intentions.
But Fan Xi is a tough guy. The more provocative others are, the more tenacious he becomes.
…
Raymond Felton opened the door to the home team's locker room an hour before the game started and told his Nuggets teammates: "Guys, tonight I'm going to give you a performance of 'Hamburger Bolognese MVP.'
Jack Fan, that arrogant rookie, hit the muzzle of my gun."
His remarks made the locker room burst into laughter. Before that, the Nuggets boys were already discussing how to make the rookie who shined during the All-Star Weekend suffer.
Among them, the two guards Jr. Smith and Ty Lawson are the most active. Young people, who doesn't want to be in the limelight.
Now, the entire alliance knows that killing Fan Xi is the most popular.
"I just met him at the airport. I talked trash to him in front of him. In the face of my heavy punches, he was submissive and did not dare to say anything. He is a complete softie."
Raymond Felton said proudly: "Tonight, I will defeat him. Even Jesus can't keep him."
"I want to make him suffer in front of my father."
"Brothers, please cooperate with me."
With that said, Raymond Felton took out a carefully prepared gift from his bag. It was 11 gold bracelets. Black people like gold and diamonds the most. They have no resistance to shiny things.
Raymond Felton spent a lot of money this time. He gave away at least 20,000 US dollars this time. Although he can't compare with Kobe and Durant who frequently gave away Ferraris and luxury watches.
Raymond believes that this is a profitable investment, and he firmly believes that his efforts will reap rich rewards.
When his teammates all patted their chests and expressed that they would fully cooperate with him to snipe Fan Xi tonight.
The corner of his mouth grinned with a happy dimension, and his pupils had already reflected the glory after success.
After killing Fan Xi, he became famous in one fell swoop. He overtook the top two players in the 2005 class and became the hottest, late-blooming super point guard in the league.
In this way, don’t big contracts and fame come rolling in?
What does this expense count now?
Those who achieve great things don't stick to trivial matters.
Raymond Felton is already having sweet dreams.
Head coach George Karl also cooperated very well with him and gave him great tactical freedom. Originally, he and Ty Lawson were the perimeter partners of dual point guards and dual cores in George Karl's main tactics.
Now, under his gold-dollar offensive, Ty Lawson took the initiative to give up some of his privileges.
It can be said that money can make all the difference.
…
The game started soon. The attendance at the Pepsi Center, home of the Denver Nuggets, was very high tonight, the highest since Carmelo Anthony was traded.
Because the Lakers are here.
The Lakers have always had the ability to boost ticket sales for other teams.
It has also been the focus of live broadcasts on TV stations.
