Chapter 546 [Chop Knife, Hatchet, Good Boat]

In August, the league had a lot of big news.

The Lakers and Yao Ming completed a contract extension, and the two parties signed a five-year maximum salary contract worth approximately US$76 million. The contract length is 4+1, with player option in the final year. Including Yao Ming's US$5.8 million in the last year of his rookie season, his total salary in the next six years will be close to US$81 million.

Yao Ming thought about waiting until his rookie contract expires next summer before renewing it, and asked Yang Rui for his opinion. The advantage of that is that he can sign for the maximum number of years allowed by the collective bargaining agreement, and the total income will reach 93.74 million US dollars. If the 5.8 million next season is added, the total salary in the next seven years will be close to 100 million US dollars.

Yang Rui suggested that he sign a short-term contract, and the economic team also suggested this. He is 25 years old this year, and he can get out of the contract when he is 30 years old. If he is still at his peak, he can sign a long-term contract with a maximum salary to maximize his benefits.

If he signs for six years, if he doesn't break out of the contract, Yao Ming will be 32 years old when it expires. The chance of signing a long-term contract will become smaller, and his condition is not guaranteed.

After the contract extension, Lakers owner Jerry Buss opened champagne at home to celebrate. This is a team with a tradition of center forwards. He believes that by keeping Yao Ming, the team will have no worries inside for at least five years.

In the Eastern Conference, Rahim was ultimately unable to join the Nets because he failed the physical examination. Players who failed the physical examination could not go anywhere except their home team. This is an NBA rule.

In other words, the Blazers have to continue to support him. They finally saved a little money and provided disaster relief. Many media have attached photos of the Blazers’ general manager. I don’t know which reporter took the photo. His expression and the figure lying on the sofa. Ge You seems to be...

The Hawks continued to strengthen and signed center Pachulia, a restricted free agent from the Bucks.

The Bulls have no salary space and just signed free agent Malik Allen. With this kind of inside depth, it will be difficult for them to succeed next season.

After the Mavericks vacated salary space, the mid-level team signed former Wizards point guard and "Street Ball King" Rafe Alston. As a result, the Mavericks' No. 1 position is much stronger than last season.

Alston is an underrated point guard who has been improving over the years. Previously in the Pacers, he averaged 13.3 points and 5.4 assists per game. His shooting percentage was a bit low, only 37.5%, and his three-point shooting percentage was 36.3%. After the Pacers signed Tinsley, they were unwilling to provide Alston with a high-paying long-term contract.

Rockets owner Alexander is as stingy as ever, occasionally being generous but always signing bad contracts. This year he let him go again. "Old Cat" Mobley refused to renew his contract and officially joined the Clippers for $42 million in five years, which disappointed Rockets fans.

Veteran Mutombo did not want to join the Rockets, but joined the Nuggets with a two-year minimum salary.

In NBA history, the first team to achieve the "Black Eight Miracle" feat was the Nuggets with Mutombo. That Black Eight SuperSonics was also the highlight of Mutombo's career. He defeated the Nuggets. Jin has some feelings and wants to return to his roots.

The free market is very lively, but as long as there are no news such as Garnett joining the Celtics or James joining the Heat, Yang Rui feels that there is nothing to fear. It is still relatively rare for superstars to form groups.

On August 5, Stana Katic wrapped her movie "My Superman Ex-Girlfriend" and returned to Los Angeles to start living together in a mansion as the hostess.

There is a saying in China, "Three women, one show", which means that women are good at chatting. If three people get together, they will naturally have their own topics. If they talk more, it will become lively and it will be like a good show. There will be all kinds of plots, all kinds of twists and surprises, all kinds of things and rich in content.

When the three women were discussing the movie "My Superman Ex-Girlfriend", Stana said: "I think throwing a shark at the male protagonist is too exaggerated. If you scare him with a kitchen knife while cooking, that kind of man might I was too scared to break up."

Scarlett said: "I think using a hatchet is more intimidating. It will definitely make him submissive."

Only Nina said: "I think the male protagonist is quite good. He just wants to live an ordinary life.

It’s quite romantic to be able to go out on a nice boat, fish, and watch the sunrise and sunset with the person you like. "

The three women were chattering and discussing, and Yang Rui could only hear a few words clearly.

kitchen knife? Hatchet? Nice boat?

It seems like I've heard it somewhere, it's very familiar... Why do I feel so shuddering? Are they really discussing movies?

The only thing Yang Rui felt fortunate about was that although the atmosphere between the three women was a bit strange, there was no fighting and it seemed quite harmonious on the surface. This was all thanks to Scarlett.

If the two beauties were slightly sarcastic in their words, Scarlett would suffer from intermittent hysteria. She would either bang her head on the table or the wall, acting like "I want to ride the wind back home and hang myself on a southeastern branch." posture.

If you are not satisfied with your beauty, what is the point of my life?

Therefore, neither of them dared to irritate Scarlett, so they tried to win over Scarlett. She remained neutral, preventing conflicts between the two women and maintaining a delicate balance.

Scarlett knew that she had a poor image and wanted to attract Yang Rui to her. It was impossible to completely ignore those two people. So she used Nina and Stana in turn to mediate between them and make herself appear important.

It's not like I was pretending to be irritated, because those two people were too thin, and their legs were too thin and long. In the movie "Female Spy", her best friend is also a nobody, but now she is sandwiched between two beauties. If Jennifer comes, there will be three.

Yang Rui treats the three girls well at home and treats Scarlett equally because he owes Fatty. If he hadn't been reborn, Scarlett would be filming Nolan's new film "The Prestige" right now.

Yang Rui really wanted to make Scarlett famous, but only if she succeeded in losing weight. After discussing it with someone, the idea of ​​a reality show was rejected. Scarlett had previously made a movie with a box office of 200 million, so there was no reason to play a low-level role again. Reality TV, that's a career move backwards.

The other two girls should also be praised. They have one thing in common, they both love to perform. Making money is secondary, the key is to become famous.

Yang Rui has already thought about a movie suitable for Nina.

In her previous life, Nina became famous by starring in "The Vampire Diaries". Now Yang Rui will definitely not consider investing in TV series. There is a better vampire-themed drama to shoot, and that is "The Twilight Saga".

Yang Rui doesn't like this kind of youth movie, and he can't write a novel himself, even if he is reborn. But it doesn't matter, he can buy the film rights to the novel.

If Nina acted in "The Twilight Saga", she would definitely be much more famous than in her previous life. This film is an idol drama, and its attraction depends on the appearance and love story, and does not require good acting skills.

Just looking at looks, Nina is much prettier than the original actress Kristen Stewart. Christine is not only average-looking, but also has an androgynous figure. The most terrifying thing is her dressing sense. Whatever she wears will ruin it. She is recognized as a "fashion insulator" and can always easily enter the top three worst dressed on the red carpet.

Even the leading actor Yang Rui has been chosen, and he is Henry Cavill whom he met at Comic-Con. In Yang Rui's previous life, he was the perfect Edward candidate in the eyes of Stephenie Meyer, the original author of "The Twilight Saga". However, this guy is very unlucky. He was named "the unluckiest man in Hollywood" because he missed out on roles such as 007, Batman, and Edward.

This year, the first "Twilight" novel has just been released, and it has not yet made enough impact. Nina is only 16 years old. She can spend a year or two playing small roles first, improving her acting skills and catching up.

Yang Rui has already sent people to find Stephenie Meyer. A big company wants to buy the copyright. The author is naturally very happy, and the two parties are talking about long-term cooperation. Facebook is also willing to buy the film and television rights for the next few novels that have not been released yet at a high price. .

I made a decision without even reading the manuscript of the novel. Facebook was so sincere that the negotiation was easy.

As long as Nina seizes this opportunity, she will also be a Hollywood goddess in the future!
