The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Wang Xiao's return to China was not entirely for vacation, but there was also a very important thing to do.

From July to the end of November, it is close to 5 months, which is a little too long as a holiday.

Taking advantage of this rare vacation, Wang Xiao wanted to do something he had planned for a long time.

After canceling all interviews and event invitations, Wang Xiao returned home and rested quietly for two weeks, relaxing and spending time with his parents.

Two weeks later, Wang Xiao called Dayao.

Dayao was quite surprised when he received Wang Xiao's call, and what surprised him even more was what Wang Xiao said on the phone.

After the NBA was suspended, Wang Xiao returned to China. This is something everyone knows. At that time, many media wanted to invite Wang Xiao to do an exclusive interview, but Wang Xiao refused all of them.

Dayao thought it was strange at the time. Although Wang Xiao was a basketball coach, he led the Wizards to achieve excellent results for two consecutive years, and even led the team to the finals this year, which made Wang Xiao more and more popular in China. Growth, and now he is almost the most well-known figure in the domestic basketball circle except Dayao, Yi Jianlian and other players.

Accepting more exclusive interviews from the media to increase exposure is beneficial and harmless to Wang Xiao. There is no need to refuse it. It would be fine if there is something to do, but Wang Xiao doesn't have any itinerary, which is a bit strange.

Now that he received Wang Xiao's call, Dayao suddenly realized.

"I see, I didn't expect you to want to hold a basketball training camp!"

Wang Xiao smiled, "It's rare to have such an opportunity. I also want to see if I can cultivate one or two better seedlings for the country, who can succeed you as the pillar of the national team in the future."

As soon as Dayao heard this, he couldn't help getting a little excited.

Who is Wang Xiao? Ghost coach! The No. 1 basketball coach in Asia!

He is willing to hold a basketball training camp to train players, which is a great thing for the whole China!

Although he has only coached in the NBA for just two seasons, Wang Xiao's draft vision, methods of training players, and unique tactical concepts all seem to be ahead of the NBA!

You know, the NBA is the center of basketball in the world, representing the highest hall of basketball!

"That would be great, is there anything I can do to help?"

As the number one player in Chinese basketball, Dayao has always attached great importance to the development of Chinese basketball, and he believes that he also has such an obligation.

Of course, Wang Xiao needs Dayao's help. In fact, as a coach in the United States, Wang Xiao has almost zero contacts in China, and holding a basketball training camp is not easy to do.

The venues required for training, various professional training equipment, coaching trainers...all of these need to be prepared.

In addition, there is the most important point, that is popularity, or appeal.

Although Wang Xiao is well-known in China, it is far from being as well-known as Dayao.

He opened a basketball training camp, and only a small number of people would know the news and sign up.

Wang Xiao wants to use Dayao's fame and appeal to let more basketball fans know and come to participate.

"I can afford the cost of renting the venue and hiring personnel." On the phone, Wang Xiao said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "But I can't afford to ask you to be the spokesperson's endorsement fee."

Now Wang Xiao can be regarded as a little rich man.

But Wang Xiao still couldn't afford the endorsement fee of a big name like Dayao.

To hold a basketball training camp, Wang Xiao is going to directly invest in Aidan himself, and he is not going to charge registration fees or anything like that.

Because from a certain point of view, a training camp like his own is also for Wang Xiao to select candidates who are suitable for using the growth template card, and it is also out of selfishness.

And he doesn't like the little money for training camps to collect tuition fees.

When he first joined the Wizards, Wang Xiao signed a two-year contract with the Wizards with an annual salary of 3 million US dollars. Before the contract expired around May this year, Glenn Field brought Wang Xiao a new one. Renew the contract, the contract period is three years, and the annual salary is 6 million US dollars.

The annual salary of 6 million US dollars is equivalent to directly doubling the original basis. Although this salary is only at the level of a middle-class contract among players, it can also be ranked at the upper level of the 30 teams in the league among coaches. up.

Wang Xiao has only coached in the NBA for two seasons. Even with an excellent record, such a salary is very generous.

When signing the contract extension, Grunfeld's face was ugly. The team extended the contract with Wang Xiao for 3 years, which means that he will continue to endure this guy dictating his team in the next three years.

But no matter how upset he was, he could only watch Wang Xiao sign the contract extension.

In the final analysis, this team belongs to the team owner Ted Leonsis, not him Grunfeld. This contract extension was also drafted at the behest of Leonsis, and he has nothing to do.

...

Regardless of the new contract's annual salary of 6 million US dollars, Wang Xiao's annual salary in the previous two seasons alone was 3 million US dollars, and 6 million in two years, after deducting various taxes, various living expenses and money for honoring his parents, At this time, Wang Xiao has more than 20 million life coins in the bank card, and he is a proper multi-millionaire.

Wang Xiao also thought about making some investments, such as investing in Apple, Alibaba, Twitter, Facebook and other companies whose market value will rise sharply in the future.

But Wang Xiao was just an ordinary player before crossing, and he didn't have a special understanding of these things, and most of his energy was devoted to basketball, and he didn't have much energy to manage money.

Wang Xiao plans to hire a broker on Wall Street in the future and make some investments by taking advantage of his foresight as a time traveler, but now is not the time.

(After thinking about it carefully, as a time traveler, it is too stupid not to use the advantage of foresight to make some money. It is simply a plot bug. The simplest example is that the housing price in the capital was only more than 20,000 yuan in 2011, and now it has doubled If you don’t do anything and buy a house, you can make a steady profit without losing money, not to mention there are many companies you can invest in. But this is a basketball novel after all, and I don’t want to describe too much about things other than basketball, so I briefly Take it with you.)

...

"What's this called? You're doing something good for China's basketball community. How can I still ask for your endorsement fee?" Yao Ming immediately became unhappy when he heard Wang Xiao's words. "I am also from Huaxia, and I want to do something for Huaxia! Don't worry, I will take care of this matter, and I will definitely do it to your satisfaction!"

Dayao's energy in the country is quite large, and he called Wang Xiao back in just one afternoon.

"I contacted many gymnasiums, and they all expressed their willingness to rent out the stadium. Where are you going to hold the training camp, the capital? Shanghai? Or other cities."

Wang Xiao thought for a while, and then said, "Then it's in the capital."
