NBA Backer King

  Chapter 20 Training Cards

  Wang Tiejun returned to the room with the contract, the excitement on his face could not be concealed, and he did not expect to hide it.

   He shared a room with backup small forward Richard Dumars. Seeing him like this, the latter couldn't help but ask, "Wang, have you found the money?"

   "Richard, you are too smart!"

  Pharaoh excitedly raised the contract in Yang's hand and said, "I just got the contract, a formal guarantee contract."

   "Congratulations. How big is it?"

  Richard Dumars had no surprises. With Wang Tiejun's performance tonight, it was an accident that he could not get the contract. He was just curious about how big the contract was.

   "Starting salary of more than one million, four years."

   Excited, Old Wang said with a smile.

  “…”

   Dumas' mouth opened wide.

   He was the 19th pick in the second round of the Suns last year, but he only got a contract with the Suns this year, so this season is his rookie season. The contract is a base salary of $140,000, and only one year.

   I didn't expect that this Chinese who didn't even participate in the draft could get such a high contract. The envy, jealousy and hatred in my heart instantly filled up and my eyes were red.

  Wang Tiejun sat on the bed and looked at the contract with a smile, even happier than watching those female movie stars.

   In addition to this month's salary, he now has 6,000 U.S. dollars in his hand. He originally planned to save 10,000 U.S. dollars and remit it back to his hometown.

   Just now, Mr. Colangelo told him that the salary of the players is paid every two weeks, and each time he can pay more than 110,000 US dollars. After half a month, he will have money.

   "Richard..."

   was about to chat with Dumas, but found that this guy was yawning so much that he was too lazy to chat, so he turned on the system.

   "Congratulations to the host, you have obtained an NBA full guarantee contract. The system has reissued the 150 points deducted from the last mission, please check."

   A glance at the new tip made him even happier.

   Now he has 400 points in his hand, which can be exchanged for two quality training cards.

His birthday is June 1, 1973, and he is already nineteen and a half years old. This stage is the most critical period for improving some physical fitness, and it is also the last period. After this shop, the muscles and bones are completely fixed, and he wants to change again. even more difficult.

   And he has been delayed for almost two years, so now he does not plan to do anything else, but to improve his physical fitness first, which is the most basic and most important.

   "System, exchange for two quality training cards for me."

   "Exchanged."

   "System, I want to improve my physical fitness now, please give me some advice."

   "In addition to strength, flexibility and coordination are currently the most in need of improvement. After these two qualities are improved, the host's sensitivity can be increased, and the next step can be improved. It is recommended for the host to improve."

   "Okay, then you can exchange the training plan for these two qualities for me."

   Soon, two plans appeared in front of him.

  The first item, flexibility training, the training time is 100 hours, and it is limited to be completed within two months. At least one hour of training time is maintained every day. After completing the training content, it can be upgraded by two levels.

  The second item, coordination training, ibid.

   "Three trainings, at least three hours of training time a day, and after earning points, you can no longer engage in quality training."

  He did the math, and with the team's training content, his physical fitness was already at full capacity. If he got more points in the near future, he would save it up and exchange it for a skill synthesis card or something to improve his strength.

  …

   "Everyone, I have good news for you..."

   At breakfast the next day, Colangelo personally informed everyone in the team that Wang Tiejun had signed the contract. Some were happy and some were angry.

   Oliver Miller was holding a coffee cup. When he heard the news, his hands trembled, coffee spilled, and his face became ugly.

"are you crazy?"

  Mark West's eyes were red, full of envy and hatred.

He only signed a new two-year contract this year, one million dollars a year, which is the highest contract in his career, but this Chinese guy he hates can sign a big contract of more than eight million dollars, why? ?

   "Old K, congratulations!"

  Buckley was the happiest person and immediately congratulated him.

   Wang Tiejun's performance last night made him very happy. Although he only scored 3 points, this statistic does not fully reflect Wang Tiejun's contribution in the low position.

   "Old K, as long as you stop at the basket, I will give you the ball." Then Kevin Johnson also sent congratulations.

  Johnson's congratulations are Wang Tiejun's favorite, because when he was in the sports school, as long as he was in the basket, the ball had to be given to him first, he couldn't hit it, and then it was divided.

   The third person to congratulate was Dan Marley.

  Dan Marley, nicknamed Lei Gong, is the top 3D player in the contemporary era.

   A star like him has a very strong desire to pursue a championship. Like Barkley and Johnson, they are very happy to see a stronger teammate at the 5th position.

   The guy who really hates Pharaoh is Mark West, the guys who are in competition with him. Others either don't care, or like Barkley and the others, they are happy to see stronger teammates at the 5th position.

   After all, if they go further in the playoffs, they will get more money, which is a real benefit.

   As for whether Pharaoh is stronger, last night's game has proved this. Pharaoh's miserable stats can't cover up his contribution, as evidenced by O'Neal's poor shooting percentage in the second half.

  In the morning, Wang Tiejun had a two-hour flexibility and coordination training in the hotel gym.

   The flexibility training in it made him suffer a lot. After the training, the ligaments and fascia all over his body seemed to be torn, and the soreness was extreme, and it was difficult to walk.

   At 12 noon, the Suns held an official press conference to announce the signing to the media.

Although Wang Tiejun performed very well in the confrontation with O'Neal last night, and even deducted the big shark, after all, the data is too poor, and it is Chinese, so this signing can be compared to the top seven or even the top five picks in the first round. It was very difficult for the media present to accept it.

   "Mr. Colangelo, are you sure this signing is prudent?" a New York Times reporter asked.

   Colangelo said with a smile: "Do you think a big center who can let No. 1 draft pick Shaq O'Neal escape confrontation is not worth this contract? Just based on this ability, he is eligible to get this contract."

   "This?" The reporter hesitated.

Colangelo added: "As far as I know, the general manager of the Bulls, Jerry Krause, has rushed to Philadelphia, where he will wait for Wang and send him a million-dollar annual salary contract. If you are interested, You can go and interview him about his evaluation of Wang."

"Oh?"

   The reporters exclaimed.

  Jerry Krauss is not a trivial person. He single-handedly built the current Bulls, the Bulls with two consecutive championships, and Wang Tiejun, who is rushing for three consecutive championships this season, even fell in love with Wang Tiejun?

   "Wang, do you think you are eligible for this $8 million-plus contract?" an Orlando reporter asked.

Wang Tiejun thought for a while and said, "I've just come into contact with the NBA, and I'm unfamiliar with many things. More than $8 million is an unimaginable figure for me. I would like to thank Mr. Colangelo for his trust in me. Since he thinks I am worthy of this contract, I dare not underestimate myself, I will try my best to meet his requirements for me and make this contract worthwhile."

   "Averaging two points per game, why do you have such confidence?" the reporter asked in a mocking tone.

  Wang Tiejun's face turned cold, and he said directly: "Just because I have detained O'Neal, and because O'Neal is afraid of confrontation with me, is this enough?"

"you?"

   The local reporter was so angry that he couldn't refute it, because in the second half, O'Neal was indeed avoiding confrontation, which is an indisputable fact.

   "Wang, just now, the Magic announced that O'Neal was on the injured list and would be sidelined for one game. What do you think caused it?"

   asked a Phoenix Sports reporter.

   "A truce?"

  Wang Tiejun laughed, and then said: "I'm not surprised, if he fights me in every offensive and defensive round, I even think he needs a few more truces."

   This is just bragging. If O'Neal really does that, it only takes two quarters, and he won't be able to carry it himself, and his physical strength will collapse first.

"Oh!"

  Pharaoh's arrogance immediately caused the media in the audience to exclaim.

   "Wang, are you all right?" the reporter asked with a smile.

   "Of course it's fine, I'm fine. I have been training on fighting since I was a child. Over the past ten years, I have broken at least 100 wooden stakes. That's how my fighting ability comes from." Wang Tiejun laughed.

"Oh!"

   The reporters present exclaimed again.

After the    press conference, the Suns also set off for the third away game, Philadelphia.
