"Bill, don't sign for now. The endorsement fee is not much higher than doubled. I also want to sign a long contract... I'm not in a hurry to sign a sneaker endorsement for the time being."

"Jess, you play with the Trail Blazers, and your commercial value in the US market has been greatly affected. The current offer is too low. If we only sign for one year, we can accept it, so we don't have to consider a long appointment.

And now your business value has begun to improve, I think we can be patient...our handsome guy."

Liu Xiu was a little far away. This serious man would even joke.

The rapid change in public opinion makes Liu Xiu feel a little bit like the Internet age.

He became famous by his face, but his business value has increased...ah...it's so good...

But I still have to remind you: "Bill, please pay more attention to the endorsement contract. Don't forget to look at the email address. If you miss the quotation negotiation, it will be bad."

"Haha, I won't forget... I really have to thank you very much. I almost missed the time to notify the Heat to execute Carter player options..."

Bill Duffy laughed at the other end of the phone, but he was extremely scared.

Before, after the draft was over, Liu Xiu signed a four-year contract with the Trail Blazers, he asked, "Bill, is the expiration date of the contract option today?"

Hearing this, he suddenly remembered that Anthony Carter's last-year contract with the Heat was not implemented!

Anthony Carter's last year's contract salary was US$4 million. With his average of 4 points and 4 assists per game last season, he would definitely not get such a salary. I forgot to notify the Heat in writing or email to execute the contract. Then Bill Duffy will face two options.

One is to lose money, $4 million. Even for a top agent like him, $4 million is equivalent to cutting his flesh.

If you don’t pay, you may have to face a lawsuit, which costs $4 million.

He quickly submitted the Heat the option to execute the contract before June 30, avoiding losses and potential trouble.

At the end of the conversation, Bill Duffy asked: "By the way, Jace, those media are deliberately guiding wrong public opinion. Do we really need to clarify?"

A lazy rhetorical question came from the other end of the phone: "Is it useful to clarify?"

"Uh..." Bill Duffy responded in pain: "I don't think it's useless, you are a Trail Blazers player."

"Yes, so don't worry. Actually, this is great. The reporters are discussing things outside the court, and no one pays attention to how I play. It just so happens that I'm not doing well. The pressure on my court will be much smaller, and I can grow and improve slowly..."

"You can do more training and you won't make any progress... Hey hey hey... This kid, hey hey hey, hang up my phone every time he mentions this!"

Just as Bill Duffy was about to nag, he heard the 'beep' sound on the other end of the phone and had to give up.

After hanging up the phone, Bill Duffy thought for a while and called the secretary in.

"Tom, you can help me recruit a secretary. The salary is 700 per week. It doesn't require much ability. It just needs to be careful and punctual, and be able to remember things."

Secretary Tom felt a sudden slap in his heart when he heard that he was going to recruit a secretary. This is something going on!

But when hearing the subsequent salary and job requirements, Tom showed an expression that men knew, and it felt really rare!

Tom immediately responded and ran to work hard.

It is not that easy to hire a full-time secretary for a weekly salary of $700, but it is very simple to recruit a careful, punctual and beautiful secretary who can remember things... It is not that they can only earn a basic salary.

Two or three hours later, Tom brought a hot-skinned white female secretary in her 20s who was in a hot body and sexy dress and came back to complete the entry procedures, and took it to the office of his boss Bill Duffy.

Whether you can join the company depends on whether the boss is satisfied or not.

Bill Duffy looked at the skirt that had spread to his hips and was a little confused - 'Does the female secretary dress like this nowadays? Oh, by the way, Alexander's secretary dressed like this too.'

In his 40s, Bill Duffy feels that it is normal for him to be outdated in terms of dressing and fashion aesthetics.

Bill Duffy looked at the entry form, 26 years old, dropped out of high school... He nodded with satisfaction. These jobs are enough to have junior high school education, as long as you can recognize words, sign and stamp, and complete the entry procedures.

Tom took the completed entry form, squeezed his eyebrows at the boss and left the office, and went to the personnel and affairs place.

Bill Duffy was confused by this look. At this time, the female secretary walked around the inside of the desk and said in a gentle tone: "Boss, what are we going to do now?"

Bill Duffy likes young people who love work!

Although I haven’t graduated from high school, it doesn’t matter. Work hard and being an upright person is the most important thing.

Bill Duffy took out the information he had compiled an hour ago: "This is the itinerary schedule I have already determined next. You remind me before each itinerary. I will ask you when I need to determine if I have working hours in the future.

You can find Tom as soon as possible to learn about our company's business, the signing day, negotiation day, contract execution day, etc. You need to remember.

That's all the work content, it shouldn't be difficult, right?"

The female secretary thought about the work content, and it was indeed simple and nodded.

“Come on, work hard.”

Bill Duffy stood up and patted the new secretary on the shoulder, took the folders he had already packed and left the office.

Tom was waiting outside the office. He knew that there were contract negotiations on the undraft under his command in the evening. The Nets only wanted to give non-guarantees. Their goal was to convert non-guarantees into partial guarantees.

While teasing the intern who had just come out of college, Tom suddenly saw Bill Duffy coming out of the office and asked in surprise: "Boss, so fast?"

Bill Duffy felt something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong, so he could only respond: "I have always been fast in this kind of thing. Efficiency is the most important thing. Let's go."

‘Efficiency is the most important… the fastest time is only a few seconds, so what are the few seconds?’

Tom was stunned for a moment, ran back to his office quickly, packed his things, and followed the boss out to work.

On the other hand, the female secretary looked at the itinerary that needed to be summarized and sorted out, thought of the work content, and the boss patted the shoulder like an elder to encourage him... 'Is this... able to work with my legs closed?'

...

...

Liu Xiu didn't know that his agent had accomplished a good achievement... At around 4 o'clock in the evening, he came to the training ground of Pepsi Center in Salt Lake City and started warm-up training under the camera lens carried by the trainers.

This is not the first time the trainers have seen it, but they are still talking. Before the other players have arrived, everyone is surrounded by Liu Xiu who is warming up.

"Jess' warm-up is so professional. I can't even do this well if I asked me to create a warm-up training plan for him."

"That's right, and Jace has a good memory. He warms up very well, from joints to muscles... and controls the movement amplitude well, avoiding unnecessary physical exhaustion."

"Yes, Jace's warm-up is so great. He activates his body and avoids injuries. The purpose of warm-up is these two things. He almost did it to the extreme... But I went to Syracuse University to communicate with their trainers. They were not so outstanding. They originally wanted to learn from them..."

"I heard that Jace himself adjusted himself based on the warm-up of the trainer program at Syracuse University. I talked to him when I was in Orlando and wanted him to help others develop training plans, but he wouldn't..."

"He probably doesn't know how to do it. Maybe he just knows his body better and is more willing to use his brain to find ways to do better in warm-ups and reduce the risk of injury... His lazy personality must think that injury is a very troublesome thing."

A group of trainers chattered around Liu Xiu. When they talked here, everyone couldn't help laughing.

The trainers like Liu Xiu very much. Liu Xiu doesn’t have much to do in training and can make jokes. Moreover, if Liu Xiu doesn’t train, he will be very professional as long as he trains and knows how to do it.

Just like the current warm-up training, it can be photographed and studied as a teaching template.

In fact... Liu Xiu just followed the warm-up training provided by the system and made efforts...

Now, he was warming up and there was a small three-dimensional image in front of him that only he could see. The warm-up movement he made was just done by this small three-dimensional image, and there was also a completion prompt.

He has done it many times, and basically the completion degree of each warm-up movement is above 90%, from the standard degree of movement to the comprehensive completion degree of force.

That is why trainers feel a sense of "teaching template".

Not only did the trainers appreciate Liu Xiu’s warm-up training, but the coaches also appreciated him when they came to the training ground... It was also very painful.

Liu Xiu's training completion and movement standards are very high, which means that the training efficiency will not be low.

But this guy is just too lazy!

Liu Xiu has many minor problems, but in the eyes of others in the team, he has more advantages.

Otherwise, the coaching staff of Syracuse University and the Trail Blazers will not pay more and more attention to him.

Compared to Liu Xiu's advantages, he has a lot of mouth, is owed to be beaten, is lazy... etc. are just minor problems... lazy may be a little more serious, but people are still improving even if they are so lazy. What can you do?

...

At 6:20 pm, at the Pepsi Center in Salt Lake City, a medium-sized indoor basketball court with more than 5,000 seats, the Trail Blazers and the Lakers have already entered the game.

On the bench of the Trail Blazers, Kevin Pritcha made the final arrangement before the game.

Liu Xiu listened to the tactical arrangement, which was very simple. In one sentence, it could describe the tactical content - all college students fought around them three rookies.

While training this style of play these two days, Liu Xiu, Travis Outro and Matt Carroll were surprised at first.

They really learned why the Rocky Mountain Summer League is called the 'best for rookie leveling' league.

There is nothing good about tactics. The coaching staff is emphasizing that it is for college students to avoid them being idle and looking for trouble.

However, such problems may occur in other teams. In the Trail Blazers... No matter what the college students think, no matter how much they want to resist, as long as they see Liu Xiu's face with a gentle expression and a hint of smile, they lose the courage to resist.

Liu Xiu didn't even breathe, and the scene of knocking down Alvin Dixon's uniform was vivid in my mind...

Liu Xiu focused on his opponent.

‘Luke Walton, second-round rookie, Amy Uduka, undrafted in the 2000th draft, has never played in the NBA, and is considered a rookie, Brian Cook, 24th pick in the first round... How many coaches did the Lakers choose?’
