Chapter 22 (2/2)
”I just went to interview with a reporter. What's the matter? Carl, do you have any news to tell me?” Link's heart was pounding. He swore that the last time he was so nervous, he was still checking the results of the college entrance examination.
After all, these are the only two things that have changed link's fate so far.
”How do you know I have good news for you? You're signed, link! NBA, you're going to the NBA. I got a call from general manager Morey of the Rockets earlier. He wants to offer you a ten day short contract! Here's your chance, link. Here's your chance”Weng!”
Hearing the manager's words, link's head suddenly went blank, which felt as if he had just crossed the first day.
Link looked around. His teammates were still there, and he was still wearing the blue away shirt. He didn't dream, he didn't cross, this time it's true, he's going to NBA!
”When are we going to sign the contract?” For a long time, link, who had calmed down his emotions, began to speak.
”Tomorrow, as soon as you get back from winnenberg, I'll arrange for you to meet the Rockets! The contract amount has been given to me by the Rockets. According to NBA rules, you can get the maximum amount of 52000 dollars this year. That's a very good deal, link
Hearing the number of 52000, link was dizzy again.
Indeed, in the NBA, even the bottom salary players can sign hundreds of thousands of small. The number of 52000 seems to be negligible at all.
But in the development alliance, there are only three contracts.
Grade a can get $25000 a year and grade B can get 19000. Just graduated from college like link, they can only get a c-file contract in the development alliance, with an annual salary of only $13000.
If it wasn't for being single, not having to raise parents for the time being, and often eating and drinking at upshaw's house, link would not have survived by playing basketball.
But now, he only goes to the rocket team to play 10 days, can get 52000 dollars! Just play about three games, you can get the salary you can earn in the past four or five years!
That's why many Development League players are willing to sign 10 day short contracts. As long as they can sign a ten day short contract, whether they can stay or not, they can earn at least two years' wages!
”Enjoy the victory, link. It's not just the 52000 dollars. When you enter the Houston Rockets, your business value will certainly advance by leaps and bounds. Because of Yao Ming, the Rockets may be the most popular Chinese American team in the NBA. You will be very popular there. Not to mention it, several commercial spokesmen have already called. We're going to be rich, link. Ha ha ha ha ha
Until Carl Jones hung up, link stood still.
NBA, Houston Rockets, ten days can earn 50000 dollars... All this seems like a dream, all of a sudden all have.
He can't stop shivering, the life of the bottom players, finally to say goodbye.
”Houston Rockets? Stupid! He can't get a chance in the Rockets. Morey just needs the Chinese market. ”
After learning that the Rockets were close to signing link, a gray haired middle-aged man shook his head at the mobile phone screen.
”Even if he doesn't get a chance in the Rockets, it's none of your business. That Chinese American is just a flash in the pan. Every year, the Development League always has several players like this. Instead of caring about this Chinese American, you should pay more attention to the Greek I mentioned to you. ”
In front of the middle-aged man, another slightly younger man said disapprovingly.
”You mean Janice adtokumbo? The guy who's still with the youth team at the Spanish Serie B club? He's worth noticing, but he's too far away from the NBA. But the Chinese... Unfortunately, he should find a more professional manager, not a new man like Carl Jones, whom I have never heard of. ”
”Well, Jeff, it's not easy for a manager to sign potential players. Maybe one day your Chinese genius will fire his manager and choose you? Yes? Think it's impossible? That's right, so don't worry about the Chinese. We still have a lot of goals, Jeff
When his assistant said that, Jeff Austin chuckled bitterly and turned off link's news.
But he still felt sorry. If he could be the manager of Chinese Americans, his career would be more smooth.
A Chinese American player with both strength and commercial value fell into the hands of Carl Jones. It was a real disaster.
