Super Game Empire

NBA starts preseason at the end of September every year, regular season starts at the end of October, and the NBA playoffs from April to June. Now it is the 1995/1996 season. At this time, the regular season has just played one-third, and Yang Yun visits

When the Magic were playing, it was their home game, Orlando Magic vs. San Antonio Spurs.

Yang Yun plans to find NBA celebrity endorsement games. Of course, the most famous one is Jordan, but there are too many companies in all walks of life around the world who want to invite Jordan to endorse. Needless to say, Nike, sports function drinks, watches, suits

, cars, underwear, etc. are all waiting in line for Jordan's authorization.

In addition, Olajuwon is also quite suitable. The 1994-95 finals MVP was the Rockets' "big dream" Olajuwon. This era was also the peak period of the King of Rockets. They had the strongest comprehensive strength in the 1990s.

The best center Olajuwon is able to win the championship for two consecutive years in the Bulls dynasty led by Jordan, and his strength is extraordinary.

Now is Olajuwon's personal peak period, surpassing O'Neal, Robinson, and Ewing, and is now recognized as the best center forward by most people.

But Yang Yun didn't plan to join in the fun. Neither of these two people was the best candidate. Jordan's image was used up and Olajuwon was about to go downhill. Only O'Neal, who was gradually rising, is the most suitable star.

Who is O'Neal? This is a completely weird star with a 100% compatible with Longteng Entertainment Games Company!

He has great power, and it is a trivial matter to dunk the basket and rebound, and pull the basketball down. He has no power at all. He has become the 50 superstars in NBA history for five years after his debut.

There is no need to explain anything more.

In addition, he is also an excellent comedian. He has a very funny talent. He combs his bald head to the camera, holds McGrady's head and kisses him hard, deliberately falls into the middle of the fans on the sidelines, and calls with his sneakers.

Post records, act in movies, wrestle, swim with Phelpsby, imitate Beyoncé and dance with Justin Bieber.

Teacher O'Neal taught the children to speak Spanish and asked lightly: "Who can speak the most valuable player in Spanish?"

The voice was filled with the calm that I had been used to, and mvp was naturally very ordinary to him.

A cute girl talked through a joke, got praise from O'Neal, and then asked the second question: "What do you say about the three championships?"

Another little boy raised his arms high and said it first, and was praised by O'Neal again. The three championships were not worthy of his pride.

Then O'Neal showed his strong arms, made a bodybuilding posture, and asked these simple-minded children with a proud look: "Who would say the most domineering center in history?"

At the moment when O'Neal was narcissistic and proud, the cuteest boy in history stared at O'Neal with pure eyes and replied: "Yao Ming?"

Seeing that O'Neal's eyes were wrong, the little boy thought the answer was wrong, so he quickly changed his words: "Bill Russell?"

At this time, O'Neal's dazed expression was really vivid. From his face, he had the urge to strangle this child. He was so depressed that he could not express more as a role model. He pointed at this little boy.

He said depressedly: "Go to the office to find me after class."

Yang Yun laughed when he first saw this advertisement. O'Neal was so funny that he would never forget his good friend Yao Ming even when shooting advertisements. He said in person that Yao Ming was his brother.

The most funny player in NBA history, who is more suitable to become the image spokesperson of Longteng Entertainment Games Company than O'Neal?

The game is just a happy smile, it’s fun!

In an Orlando cafe, Yang Yun met O'Neal's agent Rutgers. The two sat down face to face, ordered a cup of coffee, and started chatting happily while listening to the light music in the cafe.

"The Magic performed very well. Shaq is my favorite NBA center. I admire his strength at the basket!"

"Oh? The Rockets beat the Magic 4-0 in the playoffs, and Olajuwon put Shaq under the basket. Wouldn't people prefer the powerful Olajuwon?"

"Rugs, it is undeniable that Olajuwon is a great center, but Shaq must be. I think his image is very consistent with our Longteng company. They are all the domineering and unrivaled types, and they have to do it.

Just be the strongest number one person at the basket!”

"Haha...Mr. Yang, you really look down on Shaq. Thank you for your praise! In addition, you seem to be the owner of the Timberwolves, right?"

"That's right! I personally like and admire sports very much. I also have a Spanish A-level club under my name, and I just won the second place in La Liga this year."

"So, you also have plans to sign O'Neal and let him play in the Timberwolves?"

Speaking of this, Yang Yun's eyes were fascinated. He looked at Rutgers' eyes and wanted to see the agent's true intentions.

He has added a lot of knowledge from Alexe. Next year, O'Neal will be with the Magic for four years. According to the rules, he will become a free agent.

After leaving the Magic, O'Neal will join the Lakers and form an O'Habitat with Kobe, and under the leadership of Zen Master Phil Jackson, create a Lakers dynasty.

This is a newcomer and averages 29.3 points per game. And Yang Yun knows that he will definitely become the strongest center in the future, it is impossible for Yang Yun to say that he is not moved.

The Timberwolves are certainly willing to win over O'Neal to join, so that Garnett can play his small forward and power forward with peace of mind, and the Sharks' territory under the basket.

But this star's offer is not low. It is said that the contract is as high as hundreds of millions of dollars. Looking at his relationship with Kobe, you will know that only he can be the boss in a team, whether it is Kobe of the Lakers or Garnett of the Timberwolves, these are the same.

Everyone must stand aside.

So Yang Yun didn't take the initiative or refused, and said lightly: "Our company's main business is game production. I have the full right to leave the team development to others. Today we will talk about game endorsement. Of course, if Shaq also hopes

We will sell the game with his photos all over the world. After the contract expires next year, we can sit down and talk about in-depth cooperation."

Rutgers picked up the coffee, responded from a distance, and smiled and said, "That's it!"

But what Yang Yun didn't expect was that as soon as he left, the people from EA Company came into contact with Rutgers. Rutgers smiled and explained nothing, and directly doubled the offer that EA had given him before.

"Three versions are 6 million. If you agree, we can sign the contract at any time!" Rutgers smiled and looked at ea product manager Vincent, calmly reporting this number.

Vincent opened his mouth wide and looked at Rutgers in surprise: "You are crazy! This is a game, not an NBA arena! I know how much Shaq's salary is. The rookie signed a contract of 3 million in 1992, and this year it is 4.5 million.

A version is released every year. Do you think he just makes an action and does nothing, and the photos alone are worth 2 million yuan a year?"

The sales of PC gaming CDs are generally not high. Under the suppression of live 94, the sales volume of fifa94 was only 1.6 million copies in two years. The sales volume of fifa95 was stopped for a year and the sales volume of fifa96 was only 500,000 copies. This football series is for EA.

The total profit brought is only more than 10 million. How could it be possible to share half of the money to an endorsement star at once?

Rutgers shrugged: "Perhaps some people think Shaq is worth so much money!"

Vincent was so angry that he didn't know what to say. He pounded the table hard, but the next second, he suddenly realized something because he came with a mission.

"Ruthugs, why don't we open the skylight and say something bright? Did Longteng Game Company find you?" Vincent was very nervous when he asked this.

Rutgers's lips rose: "You are very smart!"

Vincent shook his head repeatedly: "Nonono, Rutgers, you don't know Longteng, let alone us! Games are completely different from NBA, I can get Jordan's authorization for 2 million. Rutgers, I think we all want

Think calmly, especially looking at Shaq, who participated in the injury competition this year, is he really worth so much money?"

In fact, Yang Yun is far from the level of negotiating the endorsement price with Rutgers, and he doesn't know that he has been used as a gun.

Ea has been in contact with Rutgers for half a year, and the two sides have been tug-of-war due to endorsement costs for several months. Ea's latest offer is 1.5 million in three versions, and it is in the form of 1 million cash + 500,000 sponsored items. In addition, O'Neill is also required.

Cooperate with ea's game promotion time.

But after seeing Yang Yun, Rutgers doubled the price and asked for all the cash.

Greedy agents, this sentence is correct at all. Players concentrate on playing ball, agents concentrate on making money, and the division of labor between the two sides is very clear.

In the face of interests, even brothers should try their best to fight for it. Rutgers quickly found some of the competition cases between Longteng and Ea. When he saw that EA, Longteng and third-party KTT companies competed for distinctive work in 1991.

When he was in the room, he laughed happily, as if he had found a way to be able to ease among the two companies, and he planned to seek more profits.

Yang Yun enjoyed the treatment of VIP in Orlando. He got the best fan tickets on the sidelines to watch the heavyweight game between the Magic vs. Spurs.

Both sides have many super stars and are very close to the rankings. Judging from the game data in the past two years, the Magic have a slight advantage over the Spurs.

The Magic are O'Neal, "Cobra" Horace Grant, "Penny" Hardaway, three-pointer Dennis Scott, and swinger Nick Anderson. These five people form the Peak Magic team.

In the Spurs team, Sean and Robinson participated in the All-Star Game, and Winnie and Avery's defense assists were also among the top in the league. Everyone is a team with the strength of the playoffs, and no one is afraid of each other, nor do they accept anyone.
