I'm really not a 3D player

Chapter 76 Refreshes the main quest again
After the 2009 NBA Draft came to an end, Sun Yi went to several press conferences.

Thanks to the dividends in the Chinese market, his exposure as the No. [-] pick is comparable to that of the No. [-] pick.

Facing various questions from reporters, Sun Yi didn't know how many brain cells he consumed before he could cope with them all.

"No, we have to find a press officer as soon as possible to deal with these media reporters."

Sun Yi made up his mind to let his manager Schwartz implement this matter as soon as possible.

Just when Sun Yi thought it was over, Schwartz took him to meet with the Warriors uniform team.

When Sun Yi returned to the hotel where he was staying, it was almost one o'clock in the morning.

Fortunately, he asked his parents to go back to the hotel to rest early, otherwise he would have to make a lot of trouble.

"Hey, participating in a talent show is more tiring than playing a game. I hope that such activities will not happen again in the future. I would rather train than deal with those bullshit media reporters." Sun Yi lay lazily on the bed, complaining in his heart.

After closing his eyes and resting for a while, Sun Yi thought about the next plan in his mind.

It won't be long before he will sign with the Warriors and officially become a member of the Warriors for next season.

At this stage, the Warriors traded Wu Sheng Jackson away, leaving only Monta Ellis and Corey Maggette as the main players.

Ellis is an Oakland blacksmith who is stronger than chatter, while Maggette is a low-profile version of James with high salary and low ability.

In general, the Warriors are still a big team.

After he and Curry join, their strength will definitely improve. As for whether they can make it to the playoffs, it is very difficult to say.

Although the Warriors are terrible now, Sun Yi believes that the management will be able to select a group of excellent players in the near future and immediately become a championship team.

He only needs to play with Ellis for two seasons with peace of mind, and it is possible that Ellis will leave after less than one season, and then it will be his and Curry's turn to be the masters.

In addition to being optimistic about the future of the Warriors, Sun Yi has many benefits from joining the Warriors.

At this stage, the Warriors are seriously lacking on the front line. This is Sun Yi's opportunity. It may not be possible to start directly.

Moreover, playing in this kind of big-bodied team can get sufficient training opportunities, which is very suitable for leveling.

After the Warriors win one or two championships, he may go to other teams to become the boss.

He has never thought of one person as one city.

Sun Yi saw it very clearly. This is a business alliance with intertwined interests. There is no loyalty at all, and he does not reject such things as transfer transactions.

His career has to be controlled by himself, he doesn't want to be at the mercy of capital, and he doesn't need to be a city hero.

"It's too early to think about these things. Just do what you can." Sun Yi shook his head and didn't think any more.

Immediately, he focused his attention elsewhere.

Before the system reminded that the main task was completed, he didn't have time to claim it at that time, but now he just has time to claim it.

Immediately, Sun Yi opened the system panel to receive the reward.

"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the main mission 'Login to the NBA'."

"Ding! The reward has been issued, please collect it in time, the host!"

"Ding! The main task of the next stage: the brightest new star!"

"Mission Requirement: Get the best rookie in the rookie season."

"Mission Reward: Platinum Gift Package."

After a series of system prompts ended, Sun Yi received and opened the reward.

“叮！恭喜宿主获得科比-布莱恩特新秀时期上篮包(黄金)、球鞋(白色)+1、高级营养液+50、5倍训练加成卡+3、5万训练点。”

[Kobe Bryant rookie layup package]

Grade: Gold

[White Sneakers]: Permanently increases the wearer's speed attribute by 1 point.

After checking the rewarded items, Sun Yi equipped his shooting bag and sneakers to further improve his overall strength.

After finishing everything, Sun Yi turned off the system panel, changed into his pajamas, and fell asleep after washing up.

The next day, Sun Yi sent his parents on the plane back home.

Originally, he wanted to take his parents on a trip in New York, but grandpa and grandma were going back to China to take care of the company, so they didn't have time to play, so they could only make plans later.

"Sun, you are already a professional player, but you don't have so much leisure time. Next, we have to talk about a few endorsements, and then go to Auckland to sign a contract."

On the way back, Schwartz regretfully told Sun Yi this cruel reality.

"Mr. Schwartz, please don't worry, I'm ready." Sun Yi quickly adjusted his state.

Schwartz nodded with satisfaction and continued: "After the draft, I received a lot of endorsements. After rejecting some insignificant endorsements, I selected a few good endorsements from the rest."

Sun Yi took the document and looked at it. Schwartz continued: "One is for Pepsi's endorsement, half of the business is related to China, one is for Armani's suit endorsement, and there is also a sneaker contract that is under negotiation."

"Oh, since Pepsi has made an offer, does Coca-Cola have no competition?" Sun Yi asked.

"We couldn't say no to Pepsi's offer, and Coca-Cola gave up the competition," Schwartz explained.

Sun Yi was a little curious about how much Pepsi quoted to scare Coca-Cola back.

Seeing Sun Yi's interested expression, Schwartz didn't hold back, and said directly: "Pepsi directly offered us $2 million for two years, and we couldn't refuse."

Sun Yi nodded after hearing this, and felt that the endorsement fee was indeed a bit high.

"Then let's sign the contract!" Sun Yi agreed. No one thought the money was too much.

As for the endorsement of Armani suits, Sun Yi also agreed, and got a 2-year endorsement fee of 350 million US dollars.

Moreover, Armani also promised to customize a few sets of suits for Sun Yi for free every year, and the conditions are not bad.

After settling the two endorsements, Schwartz continued: "We are negotiating with famous brands such as Nike, Adidas, Jordan, and Anta for sneaker contracts."

"Then who has the highest bid?" Sun Yi asked.

"Now that Anta is temporarily leading, Nike wants to talk to us in person, and the appointment will be tomorrow afternoon." Schwartz replied.

"Then let's meet and see if they are sincere."

Although the signing of sneakers may affect Sun Yi's career, he still has to work hard.

If Sun Yi's data suppresses other players in all aspects, even if the league operates behind the scenes, fans will criticize him with words and writings.

Moreover, the current NBA president David Stern is fairly fair. Except for the draft lottery, there are few tricks in other aspects.

After the decision was made, Sun Yi, under the leadership of Schwartz, went to complete the endorsement that had been negotiated.
