Yi Jianlian is now also thinking about whether he should have a good relationship with Li Tuanjie and hang out with Li Tuanjie when his rookie contract ends...

It's just that Yi Jianlian's personality is relatively reserved, not as obvious as other players...

…

The overall lineup of the men's basketball team can be said to be the strongest since the formation of the Chinese men's basketball team, so the pressure on the players is not too great. Anyway, if the sky falls, there are still two big guys, Li Tuanjie and Yao Ming, to hold on...

…

The training camp was going on in an orderly manner. On the second day after the first round of the Plane League, Li Tuanjie actually received a call from Xia Longwen...

"Hey, Tuanjie, are you in the capital now? I have something I want to talk to you about in person..." Xia Longwen didn't say what it was on the phone, but Li Tuanjie heard Xia Longwen's tone, and it was definitely not a trivial matter. Son.

In a private club in a quadrangle in the capital, Li Tuanjie met Xia Longwen, who was tired of work. It could be seen that he had just gotten off the plane, and his face was full of exhaustion at the moment.

"What's wrong, Brother Xia? What happened? Looking at you like this, I thought you were running away..." Xia Longwen has always been the image of a handsome young man, but he rarely appears this sloppy image now.

"There is really one thing that I need you to decide on. Didn't I tell you last season? Someone wanted to buy the Bucks. The price he gave was too low, so I didn't agree!"

"Oh? Has that person not given up yet? Now he has provided you with an offer that you can't refuse?" Li Tuanjie asked with interest.

"Yes, the other party's offer is really attractive. Edens and I discussed it and felt that this deal can really be done!" The offer given by the other party is indeed extremely tempting!

"Even Edens is involved? Oh, the other party has big plans. Could it be that they want to swallow up all the Bucks' equity?!" Li Tuanjie asked in surprise.

The current market value of the Bucks is not cheap, and it is definitely not an ordinary rich man who can swallow up all the shares of the Bucks.

"Yes, the other party does have this plan. He wants to swallow up all the shares of the Bucks!"

"Tell me what the other party's quotation is, and I will help you refer to it..." Li Tuanjie asked with a frown.

"On Edens' side, he is going to directly spend 200 million U.S. dollars to acquire the equity, while on my side, the other party is directly preparing 310 million U.S. dollars! A total of 510 million U.S. dollars!" Xia Longwen said with a smile on his face. .

"What?! Where did such a big mistake come from?!" Li Tuanjie was shocked. Although the Bucks have won the championship, the market value is actually less than 400 million U.S. dollars. The other party is willing to spend more than 500 million U.S. dollars. Acquiring the Bucks is nothing but taking advantage of someone...

No wonder Xia Longwen and Edens are extremely satisfied with this deal!

"That's not right. You and Edens have similar equity ratios. Why would the other party give you so much US dollars, which is over 100 million more than Edens? There can't be anything fishy in this, right?" Li Tuan Tuan frowned. Asked with a frown!

Edens's shareholding in the Bucks reaches more than 40%, which is not much less than that of Xia Longwen. With less than 10% of the shares, it is impossible for the other party to give Xia Longwen more than 100 million US dollars even if they take advantage of them!

"Ahem, that's the problem. The other party gave me more than 100 million US dollars, but it's not without requirements. The requirement is that you must renew your contract with the team in advance!" Xia Longwen said with some embarrassment.

"Huh? I don't quite understand how you guys, trading teams, got involved with me. I'm just a part-timer..." Li Tuanjie said speechlessly.

"I don't know if you are really confused or not. The other party who spent a big price to buy the Bucks must be optimistic about you. Think about it, if you leave after playing for two years and they spend such a big price to buy the Bucks, Wouldn’t it be a loss to die!”

"But don't worry. If the Bucks change ownership, it will actually be good for you. The first is your contract. The other party has also made it clear that if the deal is reached, they will directly give up your rights for the next two years. The team option contract, and I will renew a four-year maximum salary contract with you!" Xia Longwen said with excitement!

Li Tuanjie was also a little excited when he heard the news. This is really news related to his own interests!

The salary cap for league teams next season will reach nearly 59 million. According to the rules, if Li Tuanjie uses the contract with the team, he will sign a four-year contract, based on 25% of the salary cap. If we do the math, Li Tuanjie's starting salary is close to 15 million!

After four years, taking into account the annual salary increase, the total amount of Li Tuanjie's contract can reach a four-year level of 65 million!

Sixty-five million for four years, this is already one of the largest contracts in the NBA today...

A four-year contract is neither long nor short for Li Tuanjie. If he and Arenas were asked to directly sign a six-year contract, then Li Tuanjie would definitely not be happy. After signing for four years, Li Tuanjie is already Acceptable limits.

Li Tuanjie remembers that just this summer, Arenas signed a six-year super contract worth 110 million US dollars. However, his situation and Li Tuanjie are different, and they enjoy different salary cap ratios.

As for the specific league labor agreement, also known as the CBA agreement, it is hundreds of pages long and extremely complex. Naturally, Li Tuanjie will not spend so much energy studying it...

Not only Li Tuanjie, but even some team executives and managers may not fully understand the CBA agreement. There have been jokes that the transaction was aborted because the trade organizer misunderstood the CBA agreement...

Anyway, Li Tuanjie knew that Xia Longwen would definitely not cheat him...

"Then it's hard for me to talk about this matter. You can discuss it among yourselves. If you want to make a move, then I will renew the contract. Anyway, it is good for me. If you don't want to make a move for the Bucks, then don't make a move!" Li Tuanjie thought for a moment and said.

"I must want to make a move. I only spent tens of millions of dollars to buy the shares of the Bucks. Now in just one year, I have made more than 200 million dollars by selling them. How can there be more money than this in the world?" A faster way. Besides, you can see that my mind is not on the team. Instead, I prefer my own agency. I think this deal can really be done!" Xia Longwen said with a smile.

Li Tuanjie nodded. Since Xia Longwen has decided on the deal, let's do it. No matter whose hands the Bucks are in, Li Tuanjie's status will definitely not change significantly...

The other party is willing to spend such a large price to acquire the Bucks. They must have seen the value of Li Tuanjie and will definitely give Li Tuanjie absolute autonomy in the team.

"Besides, if I don't take action, I will feel very sorry for you. You also know my situation. I really don't have much funds on hand to renew your contract with the maximum salary in advance. It's better to let the big guy pay you your salary..." Xia Longwen said with a smile.

Li Tuanjie was speechless. People eagerly gave you money, but you still said that they were taken advantage of. It was really unkind...

"By the way, what's the name of the scapegoat?" Li Tuanjie was more curious about this stupid and wealthy master...

"My name is Ballmer. He is a shareholder of Microsoft. He is very rich. He is really willing to spend money. After he takes over the Bucks, the team will definitely not be so miserable that the salary is above the poverty line!"

Ballmer? ! Li Tuanjie was speechless. He may not be familiar with other NBA bosses, but Ballmer, the biggest enemy in NBA history, it is impossible for him not to know...

In Bennett's words, Ballmer is a real person who takes advantage of people who are stupid and make money quickly. Later, he spent 2 billion US dollars to buy the Los Angeles fleet...

"That's no wonder, it turns out to be him..." Li Tuanjie thought to himself.

If Ballmer takes over the Bucks, it will actually be a good thing for Li Tuanjie.

The first is that Li Tuanjie's personal interests can be protected, and the second is that Ballmer is really rich, the kind of rich who spends money without blinking an eye. I believe he will definitely be willing to invest more salary in the team!

During the plane battle, against the Green Kai led by Randolph, Li Tuanjie also realized the current problems of the Bucks.

That is, there are too many newcomers. Although these newcomers are very good in strength and can be of great use in the real world, they are at a considerable disadvantage in plane battles.

Now that Ballmer takes over the Bucks, he may continue to introduce a former All-Star player!

In this way, the Bucks' overall strength can be improved again!

It is true that the Bucks' current strength is enough to win the championship in the real world, but they do not have any advantage in the plane war!

Each team in the plane war has a super luxurious lineup. If any team is placed in the real world, it can easily create a dynasty...

…

While Li Tuanwan was thinking, Xia Longwen spoke.

"Then you mean to agree to renew the contract with Ballmer in advance? In this case, then I will give someone an accurate answer, right?" Xia Longwen asked with a smile.

"Okay, then let's settle it. I will talk to Ballmer in person when I have the chance!"

"Okay, I'll contact Ballmer. If Edens knows this news, I'm afraid he will be very happy. After all, he has also made a lot of money! Hey, these days, if you really have money, you can do whatever you want... ..." Xia Longwen sighed again before leaving, which made Li Tuanjie feel the urge to vomit blood...

Xia Longwen made a net profit of more than 200 million U.S. dollars in just one year after taking over the Bucks. This profit-making efficiency may be ranked among the best in the world...

And Li Tuanjie can only earn a mere 65 million in four years, which is not as much as the contract Li Tuanjie signed with Nike...

But Li Tuanjie is not jealous of Xia Longwen's gains. In his opinion, this is exactly what Xia Longwen deserves!
