Chapter 268 Finalizing the Sneaker Endorsement
As soon as the third contract was opened, Yi Jianlian felt a little familiar.
Look again!
Sure enough!
Li Ning!
Li Ning should be one of the few sneaker brands that have come out of China, but in Yi Jianlian's impression, they seem to have signed a long-term contract with the big cheeks, and this long-term contract has not been implemented until Wade retires. over.
How did you find yourself?
Yi Jianlian was a little puzzled.Ask Dan Feigen next to him again, there is no such thing at all!
Li Ning did not sign Wade!
In the previous life, Li Ning had to seek a spokesperson if he wanted to go out of China. At that time, there were no Chinese stars in the NBA, so they had to settle for the next best thing and find Wade.
But in this life, with such a good choice as Yi Jianlian in front, how could they still choose Wade?
If they insist on choosing Wade, the domestic fans will definitely spray him to death!
Yi Jianlian slowly opened the contract, and finally understood what Dan Fagan next to him meant.
Because the contract agreement is impressively 1 million in ten years!
In other words, Yi Jianlian can get 1200 million US dollars every year without doing anything!
This is US dollars!
It's not RMB, but if it's exchanged for famous currency, it's nearly 10 billion!
Li Ning is generous!
Even in the eyes of Yi Jianlian, this contract is not too small.
1 million, this is not cabbage radish!
This is green fruit dollar!
Yi Jianlian flipped through the contract, and then looked at Dan Fagan next to him.
This guy should be frightened by this big money.
On the one hand, I want to eat this contract, and on the other hand, I want to sign that kind of world-class sneaker manufacturer.
This is where he hesitated.
Li Ning is a regional enterprise, but it pays a lot of money.
Nike and AJ are both global companies, but they give less money.
Well, it's kind of hard to decide.
Yi Jianlian thought about it carefully for a long time, and Fei Gen was also scratching with a brush, probably thinking about gains and losses.
After all, only when Yi Jianlian earns more can he earn more.
In good conscience, the contracts given by Nike and AJ are not small, one is 8 million for 6000 years, and the other is 6 million for 3900 years. You must know that the current annual salary of Yi Jianlian is just over 1000 million.
For example, the year Ross won the MVP, Adidas gave him an endorsement contract, which was a 13-year 1.85 million endorsement contract.
That's the youngest MVP in history!
It is only about 1400 million a year.
And Yi Jianlian has almost none of the big honors now. The best first team is quite valuable, but that's it.
Coupled with Yi Jianlian's yellow skin, no one can guarantee how long he can play, or how long he can be at his peak.
Nike and AJ did not deliberately lower Yi Jianlian's worth.
But Li Ning is really strong here, 10 million in 1 years, 2000 million per year, which is only a little less than Ross's.
It can be said that it is very interesting.
Yi Jianlian is still considering.
He doesn't want to go to Nike, because there are too many superstars under Nike, too many to count, Yi Jianlian doesn't want to join in the fun, and he estimates that even if he goes, he will be ranked below James, not even Duran special high status.
So he didn't really want to go.
As for AJ, the money is too little, 6 million in 3900 years, if it starts with 6 million in 5000 years, he will also consider it.
Then two of the three contracts were ruled out, leaving only the last one!
Dan Fagan on the side saw Yi Jianlian close the other two contracts, and immediately showed a clear expression:
"Look, I knew you'd pick this."
"Huh?" Yi Jianlian looked at him in surprise, and slowly closed the third contract:
"Who told you I was going to choose the third one?"
"Huh?" Now it was Feigen's turn to be shocked!
You, you ruled out the first two, and then didn't choose the third?
What is this routine?
Are you kidding me?
None of the three?
This is a rare opportunity!
Yi Jianlian closed the contract slowly, and said to Dan Fagan next to him:
"Dan, go talk to Li Ning's people and say that I can sign the contract with them, but the request must be done according to my requirements. If not, let it go."
Fegan was taken aback for a moment, and gave a wry smile:
"Your request? Are you kidding me? People will definitely not agree to it. What if the lion opens its mouth?"
"No, I don't want much, you go talk first, I'll wait for you"
Feigen took the contract and left, talking on the phone while walking, talking about something.
A day later, Fagan found Yi Jianlian again.
Fortunately, he had nothing to do these two days, and returned home after completing Carlisle's basic training.
"How to say?"
"They want to talk to you in person."
"Uh" Yi Jianlian pondered for a while, then nodded in agreement.
Half a day later, he added:
"Hey, if I succeed in negotiating with them in person, does this contract have nothing to do with you?"
Fegan: "."
You scheming whore!
Yi Jianlian was just joking. NBA players must have their agent present when signing contracts. This is a rule.
Of course Yi Jianlian will not break this rule.
On a sunny afternoon, Yi Jianlian and Feigen sat on one side, opposite to an American group with yellow skin.
Sit facing each other.
The Chinese who came seems to be an executive of Li Ning, and his current position is the executive president of the Americas.
The person next to him is the executive vice president, and the specifications given by Li Ning are very high.
Yi Jianlian was of course the focus of this negotiation, but he basically didn't say a few words, and it was Dan Feigen who talked to them again.
After some verbal battles, the two sides finally reached a consensus.
Yi Jianlian officially signed with Li Ning.
The contract is 10 million in 5000 years, but Yi Jianlian can enjoy 10% of the sales of Yi Jianlian's exclusive sneaker series under Li Ning!
Compared with the 5000 million, this is the most important big head!
It was also what Yi Jianlian wanted most!
However, the 10% quota is only for dividends, and Yi Jianlian cannot participate in any operations.
And Yi Jianlian also has the design right of Li Ning's brand.
That is to say, if he has the opportunity, he can develop his own brand under Li Ning just like Gangzhu Qiao.
But there are requirements.
First, the brand developed can only be owned by Li Ning.
Second, in order to obtain this right, a second contract renewal must be completed.
Li Ning's people are not fools. Although this right is given, it is basically compressed.
After 10 years, Yi Jianlian will be 36 years old. Whether Li Ning will renew his contract at that time is a matter of discussion.
So Li Ning also "magnanimously" gave Yi Jianlian this promise.
What is signed here is only the intentional contract, and the official signing agreement is after the All-Star Game, just to catch the heat.
