Chapter 79 The regular season opening game begins!
"oh?"
A glimmer of light flashed in Bill Duffy's eyes. "Why do you have such an idea? Do you know how many players think they can perform better and give up their current contract, only to perform poorly in the new season?
Can’t you continue to play in the NBA?”
"Because I have absolute confidence in my own strength."
Wang Feng said without thinking.
The existence of the system is his biggest reliance in the NBA! As long as the system exists, as long as those shining badges on the badge wall in his consciousness are still there, there will be no problems.
"Moreover, putting aside personal strength, as far as I know, the NBA's television broadcast agreement will expire next year, and the new television broadcast agreement will definitely be implemented by then. With the NBA's current influence in the United States,
The amount of this TV broadcast agreement will definitely not be small. The corresponding league salary cap will increase accordingly, and the players' salary levels will also rise accordingly. It is with this possibility in mind that I want to wait until next year before considering signing the contract.
question."
Bill Duffy looked at Wang Feng and was stunned for a while. "Did you study economics in college?"
Wang Feng shook his head, "No, I studied civil engineering in university..."
Bill Duffy: "..."
To be honest, Wang Feng's words just now shocked him a bit.
Even Bill Duffy's own agency only guessed that the summer of 2016 should be a year of skyrocketing salary increases in the NBA after extremely careful analysis and judgment, and even now, they only use it as an inference and give some
This is just a reference suggestion for players whose contracts are about to expire.
After all, how big the TV broadcast contract can be depends on the negotiations and games between the NBA team and the major TV stations.
Wang Feng, a complete layman, could actually see through this and dare to refuse a valuable contract based on such speculation. What kind of courage and courage does this show?
Of course Bill Duffy didn't know that Wang Feng was a time traveler and he knew the development process of future history. If this was not a parallel world, the details of many things would be slightly different due to the butterfly effect. He would dare to use all his wealth to
Give it a try and your relaxing bicycle will turn into a motorcycle!
As for Zhang Mingji, he was confused throughout the whole process, looking at Wang Feng as if he were looking at an alien.
On the same day, Wang Feng signed an employment contract with Bill Duffy, who will become Wang Feng's agent in the United States, and his salary will be drawn according to the NBA's standard ratio.
In the evening, Zhang Mingji talked on the phone with Dayao, who was far away across the ocean.
"How's it going, cousin? Is everything going well?"
"Well, Wang Feng has already signed a contract with Bill." Zhang Mingji said to Dayao on the phone, and then hesitated. "But I am a little worried."
"Concerned?" Dayao didn't know why.
"This Wang Feng is a more assertive young man than I thought. During the conversation with Bill, he seemed to have completely planned his career!" Zhang Mingji said worriedly: "It is natural to have such a foresight.
It's a good thing, but sometimes things always backfire... I'm a little worried that Wang Fengfeng, like the UAE's economic team, overestimates his competitive level and ruins his career in the NBA."
On the other side of the phone, Dayao was silent. After a while, he said: "None of us can predict what will happen in the future, but as a former professional basketball player, I can see that Wang Feng definitely has a foothold in the NBA."
The strength.”
"In the final analysis, we are basketball players, and competitive strength means everything! So I think Wang Feng can be trusted and worthy of the team's time and energy cost for him."
Zhang Mingji smiled. "Of course I know this. Let alone what level he can play in the NBA in the future, with his current popularity, contracts from various major domestic manufacturers are already pouring in! In the next few years
I’ve been very busy in the past month!”
…
After finalizing the agent issue with Team Yao, Wang Feng finally solved a major problem.
With the help of his agent, he can worry less about many off-field matters and can focus most of his energy on the field!
There were three days of vacation before the regular season. On the first day, Wang Feng dealt with the issue of his agent. On the second and third days, Wang Feng accepted interviews from several domestic media under the arrangement of Zhang Mingji.
This is one of the development plans planned by Zhang Mingji for Wang Feng.
With his victory in the Asian Championships, Wang Feng has become very popular in China, but Chinese fans don't actually know much about Wang Feng.
So first of all, you need to accept more exclusive interviews to increase your exposure, so that you can attract more advertising companies to quote you and make money.
Under Zhang Mingji's arrangement, these interviews were conducted with relatively influential TV stations and sports portals in China. Although some of them took up Wang Feng's rest time, considering the huge economic benefits that would follow, he gritted his teeth and endured it.
The busy rest day passed quickly, and the NBA regular season finally arrived as scheduled.
On October 27, the 2015-16 regular season officially started.
The Warriors face the New Orleans Pelicans in their home opener.
"Guys, the new season has begun!"
In the locker room before the game, head coach Cole looked around at the players and asked: "You should know what our goal is for the new season, right?"
"Of course we are defending the title!" Green answered first: "We must continue to win and win the championship!"
"Yes, our only goal in the new season is to defend the championship! Apart from that, no matter what the result is, it is considered a failure for us who won the championship last season." Cole said solemnly: "Although
Saying this will put pressure on you and cause a certain psychological burden, but sometimes, pressure is also the driving force for us to move forward! If we want to become the best team in history, we must overcome these difficulties!"
Wang Feng sat among the players and watched Cole speak to encourage the players.
I have to admit that Cole's ability to make chicken soup is very good, and the players who made his speech were excited.
But for Wang Feng, as a time traveler, he knows very well how strong the Warriors are this season!
In other words, how strong is Curry this season?
The regular season started with 24 consecutive victories, the best start in history, and finally broke the 72-win record of Joe's team with the Bulls with 73 wins and 9 losses.
The reason why Wang Feng strives to stay with the Warriors and take away Barnes' starting position is to reap the dividends of this era of the Warriors.
