Vatnad is a standard Germanic person.

He had a serious and rigid expression, but when he saw Shen Huan, he still smiled.

"Hello, Mr. Shen! Nice to meet you!" He greeted warmly.

"Hello, Mr. Wattanad."

Shen Huan opened the door and led him in.

No matter what Vatnad's thoughts were, it was impossible to let the guests talk about things outside.

After pouring a glass of water for Vatnad, Shen Huan apologized: "I don't have coffee here, I'm sorry."

"It doesn't matter, Chinese people like to drink tea, I know!" Watnad smiled and took the water, "Actually, I also like to drink black tea, the kind without sugar."

He knew that Chinese people do not like to add sugar when drinking tea, but Westerners must add sugar and milk when drinking black tea.

Strangely, many Westerners do not add sugar or milk to the more bitter coffee.

Shen Huan nodded and sat down opposite him.

"Kobe Bryant and Iverson both told me just now that Nike and Reebok want to find me." Shen Huan said, watching Wattanad's face change slightly, he continued: "I want to come to Mr. Wattanad." You have the same thoughts, right?"

"right!"

Seeing Shen Huan talking cheerfully, Watnad, who was not very good at words, said directly: "What we at Adidas want to do is to invite you, Mr. Shen Huan, to become our signed and endorsed player."

"Maybe you will be disappointed." Shen Huan shook his head.

"You can listen to our quotation. We are very sincere." Vatnad said quickly, "Even if you don't sign with us, you won't lose anything, right?"

"It's not because of the money. In fact, I didn't listen to the quotes from Nike and Reebok." Shen Huan explained with a smile, "I'm going to tell you something, and you have to promise me not to leak it."

"Please say."

Watnad sat up straight, "We Germans are people with business ethics and will never leak the privacy of our friends."

"After I play in this finals, I won't plan to play basketball again." Shen Huan said smoothly.

Watnad: "..."

After a while, he stammered: "Please forgive me for not understanding. What do you mean..."

"This is my first time playing in the NBA, and it may be my last time playing in the NBA." Shen Huan said: "In September this year, I will enter university to study. And you may not know that I like music very much, and I also need I make musical creations, and I also have a passion for mathematical research... All these things combined, I don't have time to play in the NBA."

Watnad: "!?"

Your Excellency, you must be kidding me!

He asked in confusion: "You said that because of the above, you don't have time to play in the NBA, so you gave up a possible salary of hundreds of millions of dollars and tens of millions of dollars in endorsement fees?"

Salaries in the NBA are getting higher year by year now.

During the three years that Boss Joe came back, his salary of more than 30 million per year was personally approved by Stern as an exception. His salary was not included in the salary cap, otherwise the Bulls would immediately go bankrupt.

But now you see, which leading star doesn’t have 20 to 30 million?

It is conceivable that it will be higher in the future, maybe 40 million or 50 million a year.

Shen Huan is only 17 years old. Even if she turns 27 in 10 years, won't she still be able to earn a salary of hundreds of millions of dollars?

Shen Huan is also a little surprised. The Germans are very strict. Why don't they seem to have investigated my information well?

So he asked, "Mr. Vatnad, may I ask what your academic qualifications are..."

"Ph.D. in Economics from the University of Hamburg," Vatnader said smoothly.

"So have you ever studied mathematics seriously?" Shen Huan asked again.

"Of course! My math scores are very good!" Vatnad felt a little insulted, thinking that you, a 17-year-old boy, dare to question a doctor.

Shen Huan nodded and said, "Then do you know Fermat's last theorem?"

"That's a jewel in the crown of mathematics!" Watnad said sternly, "What's your point in talking about such simple common sense?"

"You know Fermat's Last Theorem, but you don't know me?" Shen Huan said in surprise: "Don't you know that sitting in front of you is the person who has the best chance of solving Fermat's Last Theorem in more than three hundred years? Are you a mathematician who knows the theorem? My various papers on Fermat’s Last Theorem have been published in the Journal of the American Mathematical Society, New Developments in Mathematics and Acta Mathematica, haven’t you heard of it?”

Watnad's expression changed greatly.

Since I am a doctoral student and since I am pretty good at mathematics, of course I have heard of the names of the above three top mathematics magazines.

If Shen Huan dares to say this, it certainly proves that he has indeed published a paper on it, otherwise he would be humiliating Vatnad.

A 17-year-old boy who can publish papers in these three top mathematics magazines can definitely be called a mathematician.

If it is true, as Shen Huan said, that his thesis is about Fermat's Last Theorem, then mathematicians are modest and should be called great mathematicians.

Not to mention Wattanad, even Wattanad's mathematics professor cannot be called a great mathematician.

Such an honor will never be given casually.

"Sorry, please allow me to delay for a few minutes!"

Wattnad quickly said this.

After getting Shen Huan's permission, he turned on his mobile phone and began to search for the content of Fermat's Last Theorem.

After such a search, it turns out that all of them are Shen Huan's names in Roman letters, which also shows the various contributions he made to Fermat's Last Theorem when he was 16 and 17 years old, and the respect that mathematicians around the world have for this young genius. .

fk!

Watnad decided to fire the assistant who collected the information as soon as he returned.

He didn't even write such important news in the documents, which made him look embarrassed. It's so abominable!

A basketball supernova with outstanding talent and a talented young mathematician who is unparalleled in the world are of completely different levels.

The former may be liked by everyone and sought after by capital.

But the latter is the existence that everyone should respect and worship.

Because science is the future of mankind!

"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen!" Watnad stood up, bowed and apologized: "I'm very sorry for the rudeness just now! I have never lost my respect for science. This time, our data collection was wrong. I'm sorry!"

He knows it very well.

As Shen Huan, it was the most normal decision to say that he needed to study mathematics instead of playing in the NBA.

The NBA can gain money and benefits, but it cannot contribute to the future of mankind.

Shen Huan has this kind of mentality, so naturally he has no urgent pursuit of monetary benefits.

It looks like your strategy will fail.

It's a pity that I didn't even submit a quotation and was already facing failure.

"It's nothing." Shen Huan smiled and shook his hand, "Now that you understand it, you can understand the reason why I can't accept the sneaker endorsement... If I accepted it, I would be harming you Adidas."

If Shen Huan signed a contract with Adidas for three to five years, and then was given tens of millions in sneaker endorsement fees, and then Shen Huan announced her retirement after receiving the money, Adidas would have to jump off the building collectively, right?

Money is certainly important, but Shen Huan feels that living according to the life you want is even more important.

We only have this life, so why do we have to work so hard just to compete for the best, the highest, and the strongest?

If you have a little money, a beloved woman, and children, then it is basically a perfect life!

"Where are you from? With your status, how could you insult Adidas?" Wattanad said with a polite smile: "Even if you don't play basketball, you... huh!?"

Suddenly an idea flashed in his mind!

yes!

Why can't Adidas sign Shen Huan?

Even if he doesn't play basketball, as a genius mathematician, he is extremely famous!

If one day Shen Huan proves Fermat's last theorem again, won't he also become the idol of thousands of teenagers?

As long as you are an idol, can’t you endorse Adidas?

It doesn’t have to be basketball shoes!

Adidas has so many shoes!

"Mr. Wattanad?" Shen Huan saw him in a daze and called him.

"oh oh!"

Watnad woke up from his jumping thoughts and stood up again immediately: "Mr. Shen, please give me some time. I think there is still a chance for us to cooperate... I will definitely give you news as soon as possible! "

With that said, Wattnad rushed out the door.

He needs to get through the phone call at the headquarters immediately and report his ideas to the chairman and the board of directors.

If it does well, maybe Adidas will have a new business breakthrough!

Shen Huan was a little baffled by his behavior.

What's wrong with this guy?

Suddenly he started talking nonsense and ran away in a hurry?

Is this still a serious Germanic person?
