NBA Backer King Chapter 326

Chapter 326 The draft of the alliance expansion

"This scene, it's too big!" Cheng Long said with envy when he saw the scene of a cloud of guests.

"Aaron, is this old K so famous in America? He, is he really just a basketball player?"

Mei Yanfang is the heroine of Hongfan District. The movie is about to premiere in the United States. I came here specially. When I saw this scene, I couldn't believe it.

At a glance, she saw more than a dozen big Hollywood stars, and then she glanced over, and there were more than a dozen next to her.

There are also some Americans who seem to be very identifiable. Is this the kind of noodles a Chinese martial arts gym should have?

Even the consul general of China in Los Angeles is here. In Xiangcheng, Li Jiacheng is also in this row, right?

"Sports superstars are so influential in America."

Cheng Long gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "His status in America is no lower than Tom Cruise. Look, Tom Cruise is right there."

Mei Yanfang's mouth opened wide and couldn't close.

As a star, she naturally knows what level Tom Cruise is in Hollywood. He is a real superstar with a bonus of 20 million dollars.

Zhou Wenhuai said at this time: "Amei, there should be several reasons for such a big scene today, the influence of old K is only one of them, and the influence of CAA.

Old K's influence in the United States is indeed great. He is the most influential Chinese in the United States now. Look at how many Chinese chambers of commerce have come today, and all the chambers of commerce you know have come.

In addition, CAA is the largest brokerage company in Hollywood. Two-thirds of Hollywood stars are under its banner. Their influence is too great. Without CAA, it is impossible for Lao K to have such a large influence and resources. They complement each other. "

"Aaron, you also signed the CAA this time, so you can also get such resources in the United States?" Mei Yanfang asked enviously.

Cheng Long was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to answer.

Because CAA's contract is very loose, it is not responsible for the promotion of artists and other brokerage business, nor is it responsible for any endorsement and sponsorship resources, it is only responsible for providing performance resources.

Like Wang Tiejun, CAA provides almost all kinds of resources, contacts, endorsements, etc., which should be the only one in CAA, and those top Hollywood stars cannot enjoy it.

The reason for this is that he is different from other CAA artists. He is the first NBA sports star signed by CAA. It is necessary to use him to open up the NBA's brokerage market and start CAA's signboard in the NBA and even the entire sports industry. The range of services goes far beyond what a CAA is supposed to provide.

The other contracted artists of CAA have their own agents. This agent finds endorsements, sponsorships, and publicity resources for him. The same is true for Cheng Long, but Wang Tiejun does not. CAA is responsible for everything.

"Aaron, then you can invite him to make a cameo in your next movie." Mei Yanfang said suddenly.

"I can't afford it." Cheng Long said with a wry smile.

Zhou Wenhuai also shook his head and said: "Hollywood has Hollywood rules, this is not a fragrance city, and if you invite people to make a cameo here, even for a second, you have to pay according to their coffee place, not a single penny.

Even if old K talks to you about human feelings, CAA will not talk to you about human feelings. If you invite him to make a cameo scene, it will cost at least tens of millions of dollars, and this has to be counted as old K's favor. "

Mei Yanfang stopped talking when she heard it, so she really couldn't afford it. The production cost of Hongfan District was less than 10 million US dollars.

"Brother Cheng, Boss Zhou, Director Tang, sorry for the poor reception. Oh, this, Miss Mei, hello." At this time, Wang Tiejun and Yu Feihong greeted here.

"Old K, congratulations, your career is getting bigger and bigger." Cheng Long said with sincere envy.

"Where, I'm here for a bunch of brothers. Hundreds of people follow me across the ocean, relying on the martial arts hall to eat, and to earn money to support my family and my daughter-in-law. Now I'm under a lot of pressure." Old Wang said politely.

"There are hundreds of people?" Cheng Long and others said in surprise.

"More than 200 people have come here now, and there are still 200 people in the next batch. They will arrive in two days. I won't point to the martial arts hall to help me make money in the future. I just need to be able to support this group of brothers. Half of my brothers are from Brothers from this family, the other half are also the children of the neighbors of the hometown, so we can't treat them badly." He nodded.

"That's fine too. There are so many brothers around in the United States. If there is trouble in the United States in the future, I will ask you for help." Cheng Long laughed.

"Okay." Old Wang smiled.

"Brother Tiejun, someone kicked the gym." At this time, Liu Changjiang hurried over and said.

"who?"

Wang Tiejun is not surprised, it is normal for people to come to kick the gym when opening a martial arts hall.

"A group of sticks, there are more than 20 people in the Taekwon Gym." Liu Changjiang said coldly.

"Oh, follow the procedure, call the police first." Pharaoh said.

"What?"

Cheng Long and the others were startled for a while. If they kicked the gym and you called the police, can you still do that?

"It's already called, the police will be here soon." Liu Changjiang nodded.

This program he knew, when he was in Phoenix, Wang Tiejun taught him what to do when he encountered such a thing, but he did not encounter such a thing in Phoenix, and it was the first time he encountered it today.

"good."

Pharaoh praised, and then ordered: "Notify our lawyer to come here."

"Brother Tiejun, it has been notified." Liu Changjiang nodded.

Lao Wang nodded, turned back and explained to Cheng Long and others: "In the United States, we pay attention to the law, and it is illegal to go to the gym to fight privately. We are high-class people, and K martial arts gym is also the best martial arts gym, serving the elite. , don't engage in any private fights with those sticks, so as not to lose your identity. Not just a cat or a dog who is eligible to kick my pavilion. In the United States, you have to play with the law and kill them with these bastards. "

"Let the police arrest people?" Cheng Long asked blankly.

Lao Wang nodded, turned back to Liu Changjiang and said, "Let the security guard pay attention, don't let them run in and scare my guests, and don't let them block the door, go to the side first, if those guys dare to mess around, Just shoot."

"what?"

Cheng Long and others were dumbfounded. Is there security in the martial arts hall? Can you still shoot at the guy who kicks the gym?

Outside the gate of the martial arts hall, a group of sticks crowded in the corridor, blocked by a group of tall and **** people, they dared not mess around, because these are Americans, they are all beautiful fathers, how dare they dare If you mess up, you speak in a low voice.

At this time, Liu Changjiang came out and said to the security captain John in his unskilled English: "The curator said that before the police arrived, they dared to break in and shoot directly."

"Yes."

John nodded quickly, and while giving the order, he pulled out the pistol inserted under his rib.

As soon as he drew his gun, more than a dozen security guards all drew their guns.

"NONO, don't shoot!"

The sticks were dumbfounded, looked at the dark muzzle, and squatted down with their heads folded in reflex.

"Drive them aside, don't interfere with the guests' access." Liu Changjiang said again.

"Yes!"

John turned his head and kicked a stick in front of him to the ground, cursing, "Fake oil, **** it, go over there, don't interfere with our work."

Just like this, a group of sticks who came to kick the gym were driven to the corner and squatted on the ground.

Soon after, they were taken away by a group of heavily armed police, accompanied by lawyers from Kwukan.

"Old K, you don't accept kicks, aren't you afraid of being told?" Cheng Long asked curiously when he saw a group of sticks being taken away by the police.

"Is it also necessary to give advance notice to kick the hall? These **** didn't give advance notice. They came to kick the hall when I opened, making it clear that they are here to make trouble. This time I will let the lawyers stare at them, unless they are as clean as white. Lotus, otherwise they must peel off a layer of skin." Old Wang said angrily.

Cheng Long and the others were dumbfounded, how can the martial arts hall be so clean, and there must be no shortage of fights and personal fights. This time the group of sticks kicked the iron plate.

After the opening of the branch, Wang Tiejun continued to shoot commercials.

It's not just him, Yu Feihong also followed him in several advertisements, because some advertisements need female companions, and if there are suitable ones, of course he wants to cheap his girlfriend.

In addition to advertising, he also participates in some commercial activities arranged by CAA from time to time, and he is very busy.

On the 26th, the league draft for expansion began.

The so-called expansion draft is to allow new teams to join the NBA to complete the construction of the team faster, and one person can be selected from each team.

Of course, there is a protection list here, each team can use this list to protect 8 players with contracts in the team, and complete free agents are not among them.

This year, two teams have joined the NBA at one time, and they are two Canadian teams, namely the Toronto Raptors and the Vancouver Grizzlies. There are 27 teams. After joining these two teams, the NBA team will become reached 29.

In other words, this time each team will have two people selected.

The Suns set up a protection list early in the morning, including Wang Tiejun, Dan Marley, Kevin Johnson, AC Green, Parson, Perry, Robert Horry, Tisdale, and others. The remaining few marginalized people are not under protection. column.

As for Drexler and Danny Manning, they are both completely free agents and no longer belong to the Suns.

As a result, the Raptors selected Tracy Murray, the Grizzlies selected Antonio Long, two forwards, and there was no loss for the Suns.

"Brother Tiejun, the next batch of 200 people is probably not enough, and we have to transfer more people. Also, there is a serious shortage of acupuncturists, at least 100 acupuncturists are lacking, and there are not many acupuncturists in my hometown, what should I do, brother Tiejun? "Liu Changjiang called and said that day.

This time the branch opened, there were nearly 400 new VIP customers, not including the former Hollywood stars, all of them were rich, and almost all of them required exclusive massage therapists. This time, only 200 people were prepared. quite big.

After thinking about it, Old Wang said: "Then let's adjust it. There should be many people who are good at massage in the hometown. You can make your family a little older, and you can all be under the age of forty.

As for acupuncturists, there may not be many people in the hometown association, so they should be recruited from all over the country, let alone 100,000, 100,000 should be no problem. "

"Okay, I called my uncle." Liu Changjiang said.

"let's hit."

On the morning of June 27, Wang Tiejun and Yu Feihong flew to New York, along with Ma Jian.

A few days ago, Ma Jian trained once with the Suns. Westphal and Colangelo Jr. talked to Wang Tiejun about the training results. to the level of the NBA.

Although there is not much hope for the draft, Pharaoh decided to take him to New York, and it won't cost a lot of money anyway.

The draft is on the 29th, and he will participate in a basketball summer camp on the 28th.

This summer camp is not a summer camp for big brands such as Nike and Converse, but a summer camp jointly organized by the NBA official and the Knicks, Magic, Bulls, Suns and other four teams. The address is in New York.

Among the people invited, some are the very popular dozen or so who have signed up for the NBA draft this year, that is, those with lottery prospects, and some are the NCAA group of people who have received national attention. The last group is the most popular. America's top high school students.

In short, these people may enter the NBA in the next year or two, and they are all talented young people.

The official invited him not only, but also O'Neal, Jordan, Ewing, the boss of the four teams.

Summer camp has been going on for a few days, and it will end tomorrow. He went to participate in the last day of activities, and then stopped by to take a look at this year's draft.

After arrived in New York, the two first went to the New York branch to have a look.

The New York branch of K Martial Arts Hall is located on Seventh Avenue in Manhattan. It is still working overtime for renovations, but it is already finishing up. Wang Tielong is in charge here, and the president will be stationed here in the future.

"Tiejun, the decoration can be finished tomorrow. The boy from the Yangtze River turned over the almanac and said that it was a good day on the fifth day of the sixth lunar month. It would be the second day of July to welcome guests." Wang Tielong said.

"Just number 2, just after I attended the opening ceremony, I went back to Los Angeles to attend the premiere of the Red Fan District. By the way, Brother Tielong, is there any trouble here?" About the kicking hall, he asked.

Wang Tielong shook his head and said: "It hasn't opened yet, no one is looking for trouble, and it will open in the future, I guess it is inevitable."

"Let's follow the rules. If there is any trouble, let the security handle it first, and then call the police." Old Wang urged.

"rest assured."

Wang Tielong nodded, there was no expression on his face, but he was actually very strange.

There are many martial arts gyms in Cangzhou, and everyone who encounters kicking gyms will fight one game. If they win, they will come out. Who is the police? The United States is really different, very American.

As for opening a martial arts hall, you have to ask for security, well, this is also an American feature.

"Tie Jun, if you don't accept their kicks, don't you worry about those martial arts gossiping about our K martial arts? We can totally accept their challenge, don't be afraid of them." He asked.

Pharaoh shook his head and said, "The service crowd of K Martial Arts Hall is completely different from them. We are mainly for the upper class. We are high-end, they are low-end. Porcelain doesn't touch tiles, so don't pay attention to those miscellaneous things."

Wang Tielong had a different opinion, saying: "Tie Jun, in fact, we can also vigorously promote martial arts. I think those Taekwondo, Judo, Aikido, etc. are all well promoted. They are much better than our martial arts and have great influence. We now have the foundation to try.”

Lao Wang scratched his head. It was really just an accident that he opened a martial arts hall. He had no idea of promoting martial arts.

K Martial Arts Hall also has martial arts classes, but there is no great effort to promote it, there is very little publicity, and the main focus is on VIP projects.

The two talked about this issue for a while, and they didn't decide what to do for the time being, but they already had this idea.

At 9 a.m. the next day, Wang Tiejun arrived at Madison Square Garden to participate in the summer camp. After arriving, he went to the official office, where he joined Jordan and others.
