Chapter 203: Sign the Flying Man Vince Carter
“NBA Dynasty Sniper ()”
After arriving home at noon, Lindsay had already filled the water for him. He soaked in the bathtub and turned on the system.
He played the Lakers in his first game, came off the bench, got Kobe's jumping talent, and then never received a task from the Lakers.
The strength of the Lakers this season is not bad. They have Big Mac O'Neal on the inside, Eddie Jones and Nick Van Exel on the outside. In terms of lineup, they are not weaker than the Knicks. He thinks the system should issue tasks this time.
Sure enough, the system has issued a task.
Super giant sniper mission: Complete the mutual explosion with O'Neill.
Task requirements: 1, hit 30+ on O'Neal's head; 2, dunk O'Neal once; 3, hit 70%; 4, grab at least 15 rebounds; 5, lead the team to victory.
Task Reward: Complete all options, and you will get "Dominance Fragments".
"Shards of dominance, what?" He frowned.
A superstar must have dominance, or without dominance, one cannot become a superstar at all.
But dominance fragments?
"Shards of Dominance is the abbreviation of Shards of Dominance Emblem. To have a complete Dominion Emblem, you must obtain six shards."
"What's the use of that thing?" Zhao Dong asked.
"When the host is double-teamed, the self-confidence inflates by 100%; when the host is double-teamed by three, the self-confidence inflates by 200%; when the host is double-teamed by four, the self-confidence inflates by 300%; when the host encounters five When double-teaming, self-confidence is infinitely inflated."
Zhao Dongwo wiped, his mouth opened wide.
"System, are you making me Kobe's second? What kind of crap is this?" He couldn't help complaining.
"Feilong, lunch is ready." At this moment Lindsay shouted from outside.
"Hey, here we come."
Zhao Dong quickly turned off the system.
"Feilong, too many people in the alliance have been suspicious of the Silver Demon recently, will it affect the launch of the Silver Demon?" Lindsay asked worriedly during lunch.
"Quality speaks for itself."
Zhao Dong thought for a while and said: "As long as the American branch is established, players can be signed, and then we will have the strength to fight back."
"In the past two days, two of Japan's top ten commercial banking and securities companies have declared bankruptcy. In addition, 41 company executives across the country jumped off the building yesterday."
forest track.
"It's no surprise that Japan has the highest suicide rate in the country."
Zhao Dong thought for a while and said: "Plaza Agreement plus this storm, Japan's loss of ten years may not be enough, at least twenty or thirty years."
"Puff!" Lindsay laughed.
...
The next day, Madison Square Garden, the game day between the Lakers and the Knicks.
At noon that day, Zhao Dong called Chen Jian and Huang Zhiwen and gave them two lists.
The first list is the list of some students in the NCAA and high school leagues. They can sign second-class sneaker contracts and the endorsement fee is not much.
The second one is the one that can have signed sneakers. The first-class contract has a small number of people, just a few. For example, Dayao’s teammate Elton Brand and others are all the ones with high draft picks.
"In addition, this is Vince Carter's information, top-level contract, must be signed." Zhao Dong said as he handed over a resume-like information.
"Top?"
Chen Jian quickly picked it up and looked at it.
Zhao Dongjia recalled that when Puma signed Carter's contract, which was 50 million US dollars in six years, it helped Puma's shares soar by 30% in just two years.
At the same time, Carter demonstrated the most powerful ability to absorb money. After completing the death buckle in the 2000 Olympics, he earned 30 million US dollars in one year with advertising endorsements.
Moreover, Carter's career was as long as 22 years. Before he was reborn, this retired guy heard that he was going to come back again.
However, this guy was padded by Bowen several times, and he was basically half-baked, from flying dunks to jumpers,
The commercial value in the middle and late stages is very low.
In fact, such a super-explosive flying style is only okay in the early stage of his career, but he can't fly in the middle and late stages.
"50 million in six years should be able to win. Bottom line, if there is a competitor, 60 million." Comparing Puma's contract, Zhao Dong said.
"What?"
Chen Jian and Huang Zhiwen were taken aback.
Fifty to sixty million U.S. dollars, that is several hundred million yuan, this contract makes their hands tremble.
"For the first-class contract, we want high-quality goods. Most stars don't give it to them. Let Nike sign it. In recent years, we want to focus on Carter's signature." Zhao Dong said.
"Boss, no matter how powerful he is, can he be better than you?" Chen Jian said.
"That's right." Huang Zhiwen nodded repeatedly.
Zhao Dong laughed and said, "Then I can't be the only one to endorse? It's too monotonous!"
His net worth is soaring every day now, and he has completely stopped accepting advertisements this season. Ringo Wells can't wait to chase him with a knife.
In the evening, after Zhao Dong sent Lindsay into the arena, he happened to meet O'Neill at the fork in the corridor when he was returning to the locker room.
"Hey, Dragon."
"Hey Shaq."
The two drank together, that is, after the boxing match with the postman, the relationship transitioned from strangers to ordinary friends, the kind where they could chat a few words when they met.
O'Neill looked around in a godlike manner, but there was no one there, so he quickly pulled Zhao Dong into a corner, and whispered in his ear: "Feilong, give me a pair of your Silver Devils..."
"Ahem..."
Zhao Dong choked.
Your sister, what did you just say at the press conference?
"You're wearing a Reebok, what do you want my Silver Goblin for?" he asked.
"Collection, you can wear it at home." O'Neill said with a smile.
"I can give you the shoes, but for tonight's game, you have to let me buckle one." Zhao Dong said with a smile.
"Don't even think about it, I'll just pull you down."
O'Neill's face turned pale, and suddenly he changed his face again, and said with a smile: "I can let you dunk one, what do you think?"
"Not good, what kind of self-confidence makes you think that I can't smash your basket?" Zhao Dong said disdainfully.
"What exactly do you want? Give me the Silver Demon." O'Neill said angrily.
"How about my Silver Demon?" Zhao Dong smiled.
"One word, cool!" O'Neal praised from the bottom of his heart.
"No." Zhao Dong turned around and left after speaking.
"Flying dragon? Cheapskate."
O'Neill jumped out of anger, but there was nothing he could do.
Back in the locker room, teammates are changing.
Zhao Dong asked with a smile: "After playing two games, how do you feel about the performance of the Silver Devil?"
"Excellent!"
Alan Houston gave the thumbs up.
"The cushioning performance and grip performance are better than those of Nike Adidas Reebok, and the breathability and comfort are also better. Boss Flying Dragon, you are going to make a fortune. Take us and let us fly together." John Starks shouted.
"Boss, bring one." Everyone shouted.
"Didn't I say, give part of your salary to the fund I introduced to you, and you will get rich."
Zhao Dong said again: "Those of you who don't have a sneaker contract in a while, my company will sign a contract with you. Everyone knows what level of contract you have."
Most of his teammates can't get the endorsement fee, they can only wear shoes for free, which belongs to the third-class contract.
"It's a pity I signed a contract with Nike." Alan Houston sighed.
He signed a second-tier contract with Nike, which is an ordinary contract without signed sneakers. The endorsement fee is not much, so he can't play in the Silver Devils publicly, but can only wear them quietly, just like O'Neal intends to do.
Camby, Larry Johnson, like him, can't wear it in public.
Others signed third-class contracts, including Oakley, which is the kind of contract where you can only wear shoes for free and have no endorsement fees.
That kind of contract is not binding on them. They played in the Silver Devils in both games. Nike and Adidas contacted their agents to not allow them to continue to wear the Silver Devils, but they couldn't stop them.
Half an hour later, the two sides announced the starting list.
Lakers: O'Neal, Robert Horry, Rick Fox, Eddie Jones, Nick Van Exel
Knicks: Camby, Oakley, Zhao Dong, Alan Houston, Charlie Ward
CCTV did not broadcast the game tonight, but went to broadcast Jordan's game, and TNT will broadcast the game nationwide.
This season, the Knicks' number of live broadcasts in the United States is the second in the league, second only to Jordan's Bulls, reaching 61 games, which is 5 games short of the Bulls, which is very high. Almost all home games have national live broadcasts.
"You know, Matt, West wanted to trade Eddie Jones for the Heat's rookie McGrady during the offseason." Bill Walton said in the TNT live broadcast.
"Oh, why isn't there a deal?" Matt asked.
"It was vetoed by the boss Buss. Coach Harris also believed that replacing Jones with McGrady would make the Lakers withdraw from the championship. But in fact, facing the Super Bulls, even the Knicks have already withdrawn from the championship. The Lakers should No chance. I think West's plan is longer-term and better for the Lakers." Bill Walton laughed.
Matt laughed: "It's hard to say, Eddie Jones averaged 17.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 2.4 steals per game last season. He made great contributions on both offense and defense. McGrady is just a rookie, and he may not be able to play well."
At this time, on the sidelines, the man with the Lakers logo was shaking hands with Knicks general manager Grant.
"If we had traded Feilong at this time last year, we should have won the championship. It was a wrong decision!"
West sighed.
On the field, Kobe is warming up.
He's desperate to start, but only started six times last season, averaging 7.6 points in 15.5 minutes per game, and the Knicks guy he doesn't really like, well, kind of hit him.
But what makes him happy is that the Lakers value him very much. This season's playing time has increased to more than 20 minutes, and his statistics have become better, but he still has not started.
After several months of additional training, his strength has improved a lot. Now he is full of confidence in himself and feels that he can hit five with one hit.
Fifteen minutes later, the starters started.
"Hey, Kobe boy, why are you still on the bench? You were probably the only one in last year's lottery pick?"
When Zhao Dong walked past the Lakers bench, he shouted at Kobe who had just sat down.
"Puchi!"
Many people who heard it, including several of Kobe's teammates, burst out laughing.
Kobe almost jumped up, did someone say that? He glared at Zhao Dong fiercely, turned his head, and stiffened his neck to look elsewhere.
The current him is not qualified to bid farewell to Zhao Dong, so bear with it!
"Haha..." Zhao Dong laughed out loud.
"Hey, Dragon."
The LOGO standing there smiled authentically.
"Mr. West, hello." Zhao Dong nodded and smiled.
"You can call me Jerry." West laughed.
"OK."
Smiling and nodding, Zhao Dong passed by.
Seeing this scene, Grant was not at all worried that West would poach his corner.
The Knicks are much richer than the Lakers, and their owners are richer and more generous. New York is also bigger than Los Angeles, and has greater influence in the world. Dragon is the boss here. Star female models come to dig.
However, is there any female star in this world who is more beautiful, temperamental and richer than Miss Lindsay?
At the start of the game, O'Neal won the jump ball and the Lakers attacked.
For the first ball, the Sharks directly carried Camby into the basket. After receiving the ball, there was a super dunk with both hands that was too cruel to bear to witness.
"boom!"
While sinking the basket, Knicks center Camby was knocked directly to the basket.
Madison Square Garden fell silent, and then a small number of fans actually applauded O'Neal's dunk.
Zhao Dong was not surprised by the applause at all. New York Knicks fans and the New York media were just like speculators in the financial market, they could be attacked and accepted. Buying short and selling short was just a matter of a blink of an eye, and there was no psychological burden at all.
Oh, now he is also such a speculator, so he is very familiar with it.
He went to pull Camby up and asked, "Marcus, how are you, are you not hurt?"
"Hoho..."
Camby gasped and shook his head.
Zhao Dong saw a very obvious look of fear from Camby's face.
"Camby completed the weight gain last season, only 100 kilograms, in front of the big shark is a bean sprouts." Matt laughed.
"A few more times, Camby might be injured, and then he might not carry the shark to death." Bill Wharton laughed.
Knicks attack.
Zhao Dong took the ball on the left wing after crossing the center line, facing Rick Fox.
"Oh, Flying Dragon made the sign to pull away, Fox is in trouble!" the live commentator shouted loudly.
"squeak!"
Zhao Dong advanced beyond the three-point line, first slowed down, then suddenly accelerated, using a simple rhythm control, he rushed past Fox.
He seldom uses the breakthrough method of turning in front of his body. He can do it, but that is not what he is good at.
"Suddenly!"
The live commentator continued to yell.
The Knicks had pulled away, Oakley was about to pull to the right-wing three-point line, Camby didn't have that long range, pulled to the low post on the left wing, Zhao Dong drove straight in from the left elbow, and drove the ball into the paint.
At this time, Onix lost Camby and returned to the basket.
Zhao Dong jumped two meters before the basket and flew to the basket.
O'Neal blocked the basket like a mountain, with two big hands hanging in front of the basket.
He swore that as long as Zhao Dong dared to try to dunk him, he would definitely pull this bastard down.
Zhao Dongfei approached O'Neill, and suddenly twisted in the air, his body unexpectedly circled the big shark with a 90-degree revolution and 360-degree rotation in the air, and then bypassed the big shark and circled to the right of the basket. side.
At this time, O'Neill, who jumped half a beat slower than him, had fallen from the sky, and he was still in the air.
"boom!"
At the moment of the descent, he reached for the basket with his right hand and got the ball into the basket with a buckle.
The last one was a bit reluctant, after all, the weight was too large, which affected the stagnation in the air, and some qualities did not improve.
"Ooh, what is this? What did the dragon do?"
As if seeing a UFO, the on-site commentator shouted in a terrified tone, "Turning 360 degrees in the air and then dunking, an unparalleled gorgeous performance! But he is not Jordan, he is a 205 cm 115 kg big guy..."
Under the basket, O'Neill looked at Zhao Dong, dumbfounded.
Jordan hit him on the head like this, and he admitted it.
But Zhao Dong put such a thing on his head, he couldn't believe it.
"Aw!"
Only then did the nearly 20,000 Knicks fans in Madison Square Garden react, and the crazy roar resounded through this basketball holy place.
"Incredible aerial work!?"
Bill Wharton yelled in an unbelievable tone.
"This ball will be remembered in history. No big man can do it like him." Matt roared excitedly.
"There are not many shooting guards who can do this. Schett, this is no longer a small forward style of play, this is a super shooting guard's style of play. I can guarantee that the dragon must want to face Jordan in person."
Bill Wharton suddenly said very excitedly.
"No matter how strong Jordan is, he's in his thirties. He won't last long at the peak. Maybe what you said is right. If Feilong doesn't match up with Jordan, he won't have a chance to kill Jordan himself." Matt nodded.
On the sidelines, Old Nelson and the others looked stunned. They didn't know that Zhao Dong's core strength was so strong.
The man with the Lakers' logo also had a dull expression on his face, and he regretted that he had misread last year. If Zhao Dong could be brought to Los Angeles at that time, then the Lakers would not have to change cores for ten years.
"Shark, be careful, I'm going to dunk you tonight." Zhao Dong yelled at O'Neill while retreating.
"Don't think about it!"
O'Neill roared like a tyrannosaurus.
The Lakers attack.
"ball!"
Although he was not dunked just now, O'Neal was also very angry because he knew that this ball would definitely appear in today's best five goals, and even become one of the best goals in history. He became the background board of history, It was an absolute humiliation to him, which was why he was so angry, and now he was like a volcano on the verge of erupting, eager to vent.
"Boom!"
The huge force overturned the thin Camby in an instant.
"Snapped!"
At the moment when O'Neill threw himself into the basket, Oakley and Zhao Dong both defended and sent his ball flying.
"post!"
Amidst the violent smashing of baskets, the whistle sounded.
The angry O'Neill failed to finish smashing the basket and was so angry that he wanted to hit someone.
But seeing Zhao Dong and Oakley in front of him, this is the second of the four villains. One of them is the guy who beat the postman into a severe concussion. The anger in my heart.
Facing the referee, Zhao Dong and Oakley raised their hands at the same time, indicating that they had fouled.
The referee pointed at Oakley and made a gesture of thug foul.
