"Wang, it's time for you to find an agent!"
When getting off the plane, Eddie House said to Wang Dalin seriously.
"Huh?" Wang Dalin couldn't help being stunned.
Seeing his stupid look, Eddie House couldn't help but laugh: "Did you know that just because you don't have an agent, everyone else called my agent!"
"Phone? What phone?" Wang Dalin was still a little confused.
Eddie House couldn't help but laugh: "You really don't understand anything!"
Then they drove back to Wang Dalin¡¯s home, and Eddie House told him a lot along the way.
In fact, almost all NBA players have agents, and they do a lot of things for the players. The more common ones are probably helping rookie players contact them for tryouts, negotiating various contracts on behalf of the players, and handling a lot of daily affairs for the players, etc.
For example, contract negotiations are divided into two categories: "salary contract" and "endorsement contract." In fact, there is nothing to talk about in salary contracts. After all, the league has regulations on salary standards for each level, and there are also salary cap restrictions on teams.
For example, Wang Dalin is currently signing a one-year basic salary contract of US$320,000. Even if he has an agent to help him negotiate, it is estimated that the price will still be the same in the end.
??????????????????????? But he was just a little transparent guy with a basic salary at the time. If some stars whose abilities don't reach the super-super level can also sign a maximum-salary contract, it's all thanks to their agent.
In the summer of 2019, the Milwaukee Bucks wanted to renew Middleton's contract. Based on his performance, the annual salary of 30 million was already a top dollar. However, when his agent Jeff Schwartz came forward, he actually talked about five years. A maximum salary of 178 million!
This is the role of agents, they can make the players they serve earn more money!
NBA regulations stipulate that the maximum commission an agent can receive from a player¡¯s salary contract is 4%, while the maximum commission that an agent can receive from a player¡¯s endorsement contract is 20%.
For example, Golden State Warriors star Klay Thompson has renewed his contract with the Chinese sneaker brand "Anta" for 10 years, and his endorsement fee is US$80 million. Then his agent can take a commission of up to 16 million!
Agents will do their best to help players earn more money, and of course they also want to earn more money for themselves!
After some popular science from Eddie House, Wang Dalin lowered his head in shame.
It¡¯s too embarrassing, okay?
In his previous life, this guy was just an otaku and a keyboard warrior. Although he had played many generations of 2K games and watched many NBA live broadcasts and news, he really knew nothing about agents.
It can be said that there are more than 400 players in the NBA teams this season, and there is no agent only Wang Dalin!
¡°He is simply a country bumpkin, a country bumpkin, a country bumpkin
"But" Wang Dalin wanted to save his face for the last time, "I only have an annual salary of 320,000 this season, and I have to give 4% to my agent in vain. Isn't it too cost-effective?"
Eddie House showed a wry smile that said he was defeated by you, and patiently explained: "You only have an annual salary of 320,000, don't I do the same? But have you ever thought that you can earn more money? Let me use you as an analogy. You have played so well this season. Are there any merchants who want to talk to you about endorsements? Let me tell you, there must be! It¡¯s just that because you don¡¯t have an agent, they can¡¯t contact you! "
"What?" Wang Dalin was stunned, and then showed a regretful expression.
What a mistake What a mistake I wonder if I have made hundreds of millions less in the past few months?
Eddie House smiled and said: "Look, people want to contact you but can't. They have called my agent and want me to help connect you!"
"Is there such a thing? What kind of business is it?" Wang Dalin immediately became energetic upon hearing this.
It¡¯s money! Who can have too much?
¡°It¡¯s not a big deal, it¡¯s just that a local beverage company in Miami wants you to be an endorser, and they offer $50,000 a year!¡± Eddie House laughed, ¡°I asked my agent to decline it for you!¡±
"What?" Wang Dalin's voice immediately jumped up a notch when he heard this, "You didn't even ask me, so why did you refuse it for me?"
Eddie House had a look of disdain on his face and said calmly: "Look at your worthless look! For a mere $50,000, you want to find our best rookie as your spokesperson. Isn't that a pipe dream?"
He pointed at Wang Dalin¡¯s forehead and said, ¡°You, it seems you really don¡¯t know how much you are worth!¡±
Wang Dalin looked confused and stared blankly at Eddie House. At this moment, he felt that his only best friend in the team was so tall.
"So what you should do most now is not to negotiate an endorsement contract, but to seriously find an agent!" Eddie House sat on the sofa and delivered a "concluding statement."
"Can't I just sign with your agent?" Wang Dalin thought for a moment and asked.
Eddie House smiled and said: "Brother, signing an agent is a very rigorous matter. Although I also think my agent is good, I think you should make your own decision. If you want to know more about the agent, I advise you to talk to Coach Pat, he has a wide network of contacts in the league and knows many excellent agents!"
Eddie House¡¯s words are correct. The ¡°Magic Counter¡± has been in the league for many years and has a very wide network of contacts.
The next morning, Wang Dalin called Riley and learned that he was in the team's office, so he went directly to the office to meet him.
"What? You want me to introduce you to an agent?"
Hearing Wang Dalin explain his intention, Riley was also a little confused.
"The Fortune Teller" has always been calm and composed, and his expression at this moment was wonderful.
What kind of ridiculous operation is this?
¡°Having played more than half of this season, you suddenly come to me and tell meyou didn¡¯t sign with an agent?
Is this still the rookie I admire most in the Heat?
"Wang, do you meanyou have been in Miami for so long and you still haven't signed an agent?" Riley was stunned for a long time and finally couldn't help but ask.
Wang Dalin nodded respectfully and said: "I really didn't know this before, and I only focused on training and competition. Now I want to find an agent, so I hope you can help me introduce him!"
Riley pondered for a moment and said: "I know a lot of agents. Do you have any requirements? For example, age, gender or skin color?"
¡°Hmm¡ When you say that, it sounds like you¡¯re a pimp¡
I really want to find an agent. Does it have anything to do with age, gender and skin color?
Wang Dalin shook his head and said: "No, I don't have these requirements. I just want to find a serious and responsible agent!"
"Oh, I understand what you mean!" Riley just thought for a moment, then opened the drawer and found a business card, picked up the phone and dialed the number on the business card.
"Hi, how are you, man?Me?I'm just like the samefishing? It's almost the end of the season, how can I have time to go fishing?Don't interrupt, I There is a player I want to introduce to you, are you free? Well It's Darling King. You should have heard of this guy, right? Well, I'm free tomorrow, okay, you can just come to my office. !¡±
After hanging up the phone, Riley smiled and said, "It's done, you can come over and interview him at 10 a.m. tomorrow!"
Wang Dalin asked weakly: "Coach Pat, may I askwhat is the name of the agent you introduced to me?"
Riley smiled and said: "You say him, his name is JeffJeff Schwartza kid!" (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
