Chapter 148 Reasons for Rejection
Zhang Xiaofan is about to enter the NBA.
Which Nab basketball team do you want Zhang Xiaofan to join the most?
I really want to see the negotiation scene between the two parties, it would be great if there was a live broadcast.
Zhang Xiaofan will definitely join the Lakers!
In China, various discussions in online forums are already in full swing.
Some people are discussing the finale, while others are discussing Zhang Xiaofan's performance.
Of course, more people are concerned about which NBA team Zhang Xiaofan will join.
...
Zhang Xiaofan was helpless, although he wanted to refuse directly and did not come to participate in this so-called negotiation.
However, so many NBA senior executives have been running so far, and it is not easy to show their faces.
After all, humans are social animals. They cannot always be invisible. They still have to do face work.
I won't enter the NBA now, but maybe in the future, the brainless system will release such a task.
Zhang Xiaofan finally went to David Stern's appointment, which was located in the hotel where these NBA bosses stayed.
As soon as Zhang Xiaofan entered the hotel, he felt the enthusiasm from NBA.
From David Stern to the presidents and general managers of many NBA teams, they are constantly throwing out one extremely tempting condition after another.
"Zhang Xiaofan, our NBA is the highest-level basketball league. We gather the best basketball players in the world here and can make your abilities more powerful here. I promise here that if you want you to join, within three years, I will definitely make you one of the most famous sports athletes in the world. And you can set the conditions first and we will discuss it." Since seeing Zhang Xiaofan, David Stern directly explained the purpose.
Then there are senior executives of various NBA teams.
The first one to rush up was the boss of the Lakers. "As long as Zhang Xiaofan joins our Lakers, Kobe will have no problems with the unlimited firepower, maximum salary, and team leader conditions that Kobe offered during his last negotiation with you. And you should know the operational ability of our Lakers. We will dig for you the most suitable helpers and help you build an unprecedented dynasty!"
"What is the maximum salary? Zhang Xiaofan, you want you to join our Knicks. In the first three years, we will give you 100 million US dollars a year. In three years, as long as you are willing to join, you can continue to negotiate the salary." The president of the Knicks in New York looks like we are not short of money.
"We, the Lakers, can also offer this condition."
Zhang Xiaofan was so stunned that he gave 100 million US dollars a year.
This is a huge sum of money for anyone.
As long as you work for a year, you can live a leisurely life.
But before Zhang Xiaofan could come back from his shock, the top knights had already offered conditions that made Zhang Xiaofan dizzy.
"Zhang Xiaofan, you want you to join our Cavaliers. The conditions you offered by the Knicks just now are fine. Not only that, we can give you no less than 20% of the equity... How much can you negotiate." The senior executives of the Cavaliers looked like they were determined to win.
If I agree, I will become a shareholder of the team?
Some teams next to them are eager to give their conditions.
Looking at that expression, I didn't react much when I heard the conditions of the Knight.
Zhang Xiaofan understood that these teams with relatively less fame will definitely offer more generous conditions.
"Stop, until now, everyone listen to me first." Zhang Xiaofan hurriedly called to stop, afraid that if he didn't shout, he would really be unable to resist the conditions offered.
Zhang Xiaofan pretended to have a calm look and looked at David Stern, "I really thank you very much. I was able to come to Rio to discuss with me. I saw your sincerity and the generous conditions you offered."
"Oh, so Zhang Xiaofan, you are going to join our NBA. Which team do you want to join? If you have a goal, you can tell it now, Los Angeles or New York?" David Stern thought that Zhang Xiaofan was going to agree to join the NBA, and was even more excited.
Zhang Xiaofan shook his head, "No, David, sorry, you understood my words wrong. I mean, I will not join the NBA for the time being."
"What, are you not satisfied with Zhang Xiaofan's conditions? As long as you say it, the conditions can be negotiated, and our NBA will give you a green light. You must know that your CBA and the European League are not as good as our NBA league..." David Stern was a little anxious when he heard this. If Zhang Xiaofan joins other basketball leagues, he may shake the NBA's dominance in the basketball world.
"It's not a matter of conditions, and I don't want to join other leagues." Zhang Xiaofan shook his head.
"Why?" David Stern was a little confused.
"Because I still have to go to school." Zhang Xiaofan gave this sentence.
"What, Zhang Xiaofan, what did you say?" David Stern couldn't believe what he heard. The boy said he was going to school, so he must have heard it wrong.
"Because I'm still in college, I want to go back to school to continue school." Zhang Xiaofan explained again.
The NBA bosses at the scene were all burnt and tender, and they couldn't believe their ears.
The God of Basketball said he wanted to go back and continue to go to college!
Basketball is so good that you have to go to college, which is too outrageous.
Confidant that he heard it correctly, David Stern hurriedly said, "Zhang Xiaofan, you can go to college, you can't do it. There are many world-class universities in America. If you want to go to any one, I can help you arrange it without any problem."
Zhang Xiaofan smiled bitterly in his heart. This so-called college entrance examination was just a reason to refuse.
Next, I have to complete the tasks in the entertainment industry myself, and it is impossible to go to NBA.
Zhang Xiaofan could only pretend to be sorry, "I'm so sorry David, I already have a college and I'm going to be in my junior year. I graduated from college in two years. If I don't have a postgraduate entrance examination, I might consider joining the NBA."
Zhang Xiaofan decisively rejected David Stern's suggestion.
Next, although David Stern and the NBA team are still fighting for it.
But in the end it was still unsuccessful.
Although David Stern was depressed, he was sure that Zhang Xiaofan would not join other basketball leagues, which might be the best result.
"This guy is really a strange guy. Will this guy really come in two years?" Looking at Zhang Xiaofan's back as he walked away, David Stern could only shake his head helplessly.
What they didn't know was that they were in the hotel's monitoring room at this time.
Someone was excitedly copying the surveillance video and was still murmuring.
"This will definitely become a hot world news. Zhang Xiaofan rejected the invitation from NBA, and the reasons are so weird that it is hard to believe."
This person is a reporter. He knew the hotel boss. He contacted his friends immediately and entered the hotel.
I was just hoping to take a picture of the scene at the end, but I didn’t expect there was surveillance in the hall.
Zhang Xiaofan left the hotel and returned directly to the Olympic Village.
Zeng Xiaoxian looked excited when he saw Zhang Xiaofan, "Brother Xiaofan, which team did you join? Lakers?"
Zhang Xiaofan shook his head, "No, I refuse."
"Why do you refuse?" Zeng Xiaoxian didn't understand.
“Because I still have to go to school.”
