Xia Song wants to be Yao Min's agent. Once Yao Min plays in the NBA, he will be established in this industry. It's not about how much money Yao Min makes, but when he becomes famous.
, you can sign a lot of players, and that’s a good time to make money.
After five days, Xia Song had everything settled, and then he called Jiang Hua and asked him to go to the Capital Hotel in the evening to be the middleman.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Jiang Hua opened the door and entered the private room. Xia Song was there, and the young man Yao Min was also here. Yao Min's parents were also there. In his last life, Jiang Hua had seen the couple on TV many times. They were a big family.
Basketball family.
"Yao Min." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "I have watched the Sharks' game. You are doing everything you want in the paint. It is simply overwhelming."
At this time, Yao Ming was still a shy young man, blushing and scratching his head.
Jiang Hua walked up to him: "Come on, stand up and let me see how tall you are."
Yao Min stood up, standing in front of Jiang Hua with a height of 2.26 meters, like a tree.
Jiang Hua pinched his arm: "I have height, but my body is not strong. If I were in the NBA, I would not be able to withstand back-up blows and collisions."
"Boss Jiang really knows basketball."
Jiang Hua then took a look at the person Xia Song was next to. Jiang Hua was also familiar with this person, Mr. Wei Ping Bryant and Mr. Zhang Lili.
"Xia Song, I've come looking for you." Jiang Hua smiled and complimented: "If I had known you were there, why would I have to intervene? You would have settled this matter."
Zhang Weiping waved his hand: "I'm just a little older, but I'm actually useless. I have no strength, no background, and no one listens to my words. I think this young man Yao Min can do it. He can go to the NBA to train, don't let the basketball team
These fools delayed him."
Yao Min's parents also came over, shook hands with Jiang Hua, and said flatteringly: "Thank you, Mr. Jiang, for worrying about it. I'll leave our Yao Min's affairs to you."
Jiang Hua patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, you two. Yao Min must go to the NBA and he will play well. I said so."
Jiang Hua chatted with Yao Min's parents about Yao Min's childhood with great interest. The conversation lasted for half an hour, but there was still no one from the Basketball Association.
I was probably almost an hour late. The talents from Nanxi were belatedly arriving, and they were none other than the top three managers of the Basketball Association.
As soon as they pushed the door of the box, the whole box fell silent instantly. The three people nodded, quite satisfied with the way they appeared, and thought that their aura suppressed the aura in the entire box.
"Oh, Lao Zhang. Are you retired now? You are still busy outside." The leader said with a smile: "After playing football all my life, it's time for Hanyi to play grandson. Don't get involved in everything."
"I just think Yao Min is a good young man. He needs to be tall and skilled, and he needs to be able to play in the NBA. He always plays in the CBA. It's a waste of material."
The three people shook their heads: "Old Zhang, your ideas are terrible. Our CBA is no better than the NBA. The national conditions are different, and the leagues are naturally different. We need to deeply tap the potential of our league. Aren't Liu Yudong and the others also in our league?
Why don’t you roll around? You’re still No. 1 in Asia.”
Xia Song quickly said: "Mr. Xin, you can't say that. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Yao Min's strength is much higher than that of other players. If he still plays in the CBA league, it will not promote his skills at all."
"Xia Song, to put it bluntly, you are just a businessman. What do you know about the league? Who gave you the right to speak in it?"
Another gentleman said angrily: "Oh, all the high-level players in our league have left, and only the low-level players are left to play here. If we continue to play in the league for another ten years, it will also be a low-level league.
Only with high-level players playing a stimulating role can our league progress."
Yao Min clenched his fists and gritted his teeth and said, "Anyway, I just want to play in the NBA. If I can't play, I would rather retire."
"You are a little ignorant kid. Do you know what it means to be a chicken's head rather than a cow's queen?" Mr. Xin said sincerely: "There are so many people who want to join the NBA every year. How many of them are there?"
You can play well, but if you go in and sit on the bench, will your technical and tactical level improve?"
"Besides, it's not like we won't let you out." The person who had been silent until now came out to smooth things over: "But after all, our basketball association trained you, right? You have to pay a training fee, right?"
At this point in the conversation, we have officially entered the topic. The previous ones are all foreshadowing and hypocrisy. The league level, skills and tactics are all just opinions from their mouths.
Yao Min's father said: "We have to pay for the training fee, but the price you are asking is too outrageous. Our family can't raise it even by selling everything for nine million U.S. dollars."
"Um."
Jiang Hua cleared his throat.
The box suddenly became quiet. When Mr. Xin saw Jiang Hua, he immediately came up to say hello. Jiang Hua had been donating to the General Administration of Sports and had met several gentlemen from the Basketball Association.
"Hey, Boss Jiang, why are you here too?"
"I can't help it. I was asked to be a middleman." Jiang Hua said with a smile: "I heard clearly what you two are arguing about. I can only say that public opinion is reasonable and mother-in-law is right. Let me be the middleman.
It’s also difficult to handle.”
Jiang Hua turned to Yao Min and said: "First of all, I have to talk about Yao Ming. You want to go out and want to become stronger. I can understand this, but the three of them are worried about the league. I can only say that they
The worries are well-founded. The NBA has Jordan, who has stirred up the sports market. We also need to have a little giant in the CBA. You are a bit too selfish just thinking about going out and not thinking about the league."
Everyone in the box was stunned. Mr. Xia wanted to say, aren't you here to help me? Why are you speaking for the Basketball Association again?
Jiang Hua continued: "After all, the fans are here to see you, little giant. You can't be too selfish. Of course, can you support a game by yourself? There are ten people playing against each other in a game. You can play well alone."
It’s useless, you have to encourage the other nine people to play well.”
Zhang Weiping's heart, which was still in suspense just now, immediately relaxed. It must be said that Jiang Hua's yin and yang was so good.
Several gentlemen from the Basketball Association frowned, as if they were not speaking for themselves.
"Yao Min, you have to have an overall view." Jiang Hua continued: "You have to use your own efforts to instigate the progress of the entire league. If the CBA league does not have you, it will be a shame. You said you can be the sinner of Chinese basketball.
?"
Mr. Xin quickly explained: "Boss Jiang, Boss Jiang, that's not the case. After he leaves, the CBA League will still be the CBA League."
