Chapter 20 My Investments

Three spoof matches between Shark O'Neal and me kept playing on TV, and experts kept analyzing the right or wrong between us, who won whom and who humiliated whom. It was obvious that I was the one who lost very thoroughly.

After the game, I received a call from my agent David Hunter at the airport: Nike, who once abandoned me, offered another 6 years, 30 million contract.

I lost, and at the same time I also won. At least I won a big contract. Although it cannot match the contract of the future giant Yao Ming, this is also a very good contract in NBA. Not everyone in NBA can have commercial endorsements. Only a few people have commercial endorsements. I signed such a large contract to prove that I have gained a foothold in NBA and have the ability to occupy a place in NBA. In the eyes of these big merchants, my future is absolutely bright, at least the commercial value is absolutely bright.

The business negotiations were only an hour, and I signed the contract with Daming. From now on, I will start wearing Nike's sneakers. However, I cannot have my own sneakers for the time being. Nike has temporarily provided me with ten pairs of basketball shoes for me to try on. In two months, they will develop a sneaker that belongs entirely to me - the Brown Generation.

David Hunter told me that his negotiations with Pepsi have also entered the final stage, and Pepsi has raised its contract to 12 million in four years. According to David Hunter, this may be the final price.

There are also countless advertising endorsements waiting for David Hunter to negotiate one by one.

I am already a celebrity. I am not the celebrity who is parallel.

I am finally not a poor person. The profit and principal in the stock index futures account have reached 8 million US dollars. Yes, the profit has reached 5 million US dollars. When the craziness of this round of market comes, I believe my profit will reach 10 million. I will close all my orders above 2,000 points, and then turn around and short.

Many famous athletes in the world are in the year of fighting, and their ability to attract money is unparalleled and live a luxurious life. When they retired, they have no salary, no bonus, and no advertising endorsement. In addition, they cannot transform from their former luxury life for a while and soon become an unwilling pauper. Many stars later lived a very miserable life. Even boxing champion Tyson owed high debts after retirement. In the last game, Rick Fox, the Lakers, had to make ** movies in order to support their household registration.

I am traveling through time. I cannot allow myself to be one of those miserable members. I hope I can still live very well after retirement. I need to invest. My first goal of investing is Google, which has not yet grown up. This future largest search engine company can bring US$6.7 billion in profits every quarter. As long as I own 1% of the shares, I can live a worry-free life for the rest of my life. However, my investment plan was opposed by my agent David Hunter.

"What? google? Are you sure it's this online company?" David Hunter was full of questions and surprise at my words.

"Yes, David, I'm now using Google and can search for something useful. I feel this company may be good!" I said.

"Kaomei, how could you have such an incredible idea? You should know that these so-called high-tech network companies are completely a beautiful bubble, which looks extremely wonderful, but in fact they can be broken with just one punch. It has been 5 years since Jingwang Company and now, and no Internet company can make a profit yet. Your investment is completely wasted!"

"David, no one is sure about the future of things, and no one is sure whether the future network companies will make profits. Not being able to make profits now does not mean that the future cannot be profitable. No one can explain the future of things. I think the services they provide are good and may be successful in the future." I continued to say my reasons.

"There are companies like them in Silicon Valley now. They shout high-tech to attract the attention of venture capital, but when they spend a penny on venture capital, they will shut down their companies without hesitation. Now countless such companies go bankrupt every day, and your investment will become zero and will not bring you any value." David Hunter continued to persuade me, and I felt that he was a good broker and was very responsible for me. But this was not what I needed.

"David, you know, I can't play basketball for the rest of my life. I will retire in 10 years, 15 years, or at most 20 years. You know that many big-name stars have lived a miserable life after they retire. When they were calling for wind and rain on the court, no one would have thought that their future would be so miserable. I don't want my future to be the same as them. I want to spend my second half of my life comfortably, and I have to invest in my assets."

"I will find you some more stable duty-free bonds and help you buy some company stocks with relatively stable returns. I will keep your assets worthy and increase your value. Please believe me!" David Hunter said to me with a firm look on his face.

It's easy to do something, but it's not easy to convince people who don't want you to do it. Obviously David Hunter is such a person, but I can only ask him to help me manage my assets because he is my only agent. I have to convince him, no matter what method is used.

"David, do you know how high the inflation rate is now? Thirty years ago, gold was only 50 US dollars per ounce. What about now? Now the highest point is 1,000 US dollars, which has increased by 20 times. The yields of those bonds will never catch up with the inflation rate. Maybe 1 million US dollars in 20 years can only buy a box of toothpaste. Now, when I am young and have a good income, I invest every year. I don't want every investment to make a profit. I just hope that an investment in 20 years will allow me to live a more decent life. Google may not be very likely to succeed, but the services it provides are really good." I said slowly

"He is only one in ten thousand chance of success!" David Hunter said gritting his teeth.

"This is already a lot. Every investment cannot make a stable profit. High returns will inevitably be accompanied by high risks. Maybe we can really buy a chicken that can lay golden eggs!" I said patiently.

"Well, I don't object if you insist on doing it, but I suggest you set up an investment company to manage your investments, maybe they're a little more professional," David Hunter said, shaking his head.

"Start a company?" I wondered.

"Although our brokerage company has its own investment and financial management department, they seem to be unable to meet your needs, and I cannot run around these things for you every day. If you set up a ** investment company, they can handle your investment and financial management plan in a timely manner, which is better for you." David Hunter shook his head and said.

Alas! After seeing the helpless persuasion of me, David Hunter had to consider himself. He hoped that my bad investment plan would not affect his gold broker's plan, but he didn't know what he missed. If he completely managed my investment, he could get 5% of all my investment returns, which I believe will be a very huge number in the future. This investment alone in Google will also make him profit at least tens of millions.

David Hunter missed a chance to become the richest man on the planet. And he is still watching me in silence.

Human beings! It’s just a life! David Hunter obviously did not have the life to become a rich man. In my heart, I can only silently bless him with the next time he can seize the opportunity.
