Chapter 381 The largest endorsement contract in history(1/2)
After Tang Hao finished stepping on this kick, he saw the bodyguard coming up, and withdrew his foot, and said lightly: "Call the police."
After saying this, he turned around and entered the room.
Before Swift woke up, Tang Hao saw that her face was not very good, so he picked her up from the bed and went out to ask the bodyguard to drive his phantom over, and then took her to a nearby hospital.
Ether does not cause much damage to the human body, but if it enters directly from the mouth and nose, it can easily cause fainting and nausea. After staying in the hospital for a while, Swift had woken up, but his face was a little pale.
Through Tang Hao's understatement, Swift knew the rough thing.
Although Tang Hao’s narration is simple and casual, three veterans holding daggers can all know the danger coefficients here.
"You can sleep for a while." Tang Hao said as he stood up from the bed. He was a little sleepy in the middle of the night.
"Wait." Swift murmured.
Tang Hao looked at Swift in confusion.
"Can you wait until I fall asleep before leaving?" Swift looked at Tang Hao with some anticipation.
"Okay." Tang Hao said as he sat back to the bed.
"Hand." Swift said, reaching out.
Tang Hao stretched out his hand, Swift grabbed his hand, closed his eyes, and his face slowly calmed down.
After a while, she fell asleep.
Tang Hao was about to get up, but found that Swift's hand was holding him tightly, and he pulled it a few times without letting go.
This ward is a special ward. Tang Hao looked at the bed quite big and didn't care. He leaned against the other side of Swift and just lay down to sleep.
The struggle in the middle of the night was enough. Not long after lying down, he fell asleep quickly.
When he woke up the next day, he felt something pressing on his chest. When he looked down, he saw Swift's head resting on his chest, with a look of happiness on his face.
"Um……"
Just then, Swift let out a breath of gasps and then woke up.
When she looked up and saw herself lying in Tang Hao's arms, her face turned slightly red, and she continued, "Thank you."
Tang Hao smiled, said nothing, stood up from the bed, and continued, "Are you hungry? I'll buy you some food for you."
"Don't you need to train in the morning?" Swift asked.
"No, they are all still at the Sacrato Gate and will not come back at noon at the earliest. I'll send you back to the villa before going back." Tang Hao replied.
"Yeah." Swift nodded slightly red. After experiencing these things, he could clearly feel that she was much more dependent on Tang Hao.
After breakfast, Tang Hao sent Swift back to the villa.
On the way back, the two talked about what happened last night. At Tang Hao's suggestion, Swift doubled the number of bodyguards for her agent.
After saying goodbye to Swift, Tang Hao called the police station.
The interrogation at the police station has ended, but the result is that these people are purely homeless people, who have worked as soldiers before, and have set up Swift's idea to extort some money.
It is not new to a celebrity's kidnapping. Not long ago, the reality show star Kim Kardashian was kidnapped with a gun. The bandits extorted more than 10 million, but no one has been caught so far.
Because guns are legal in the United States, public security is sometimes much more chaotic than imagined.
However, the result of this interrogation made Tang Hao feel a little strange. It felt very wrong, but he couldn't tell where it was.
He was too lazy to think about something that he couldn't figure out, so he went back to the team.
After the afternoon training, Tang Hao returned to his villa and lay in the yard enjoying the sunbathing.
After Zhuang Jiajie called, he brought the white man to the apartment in a short while.
"Let me introduce this. This is the hottest athlete Tang Hao in the world today. This is Mr. Lauren Cotterson, Nike's global vice president."
"Tang, I'm very excited to see you." Kotson's expression was really excited, not only because he saw Tang Hao, but also because he was going to accomplish something he had never done in history today.
"Mr. Cotterson, I'm very happy to see you."
Tang Hao said hello to the servant, who turned around and went to make coffee.
"Zhuang said that Tang has deep national feelings, but the contract I brought today is absolutely sincere."
The most profitable thing about the NBA players' peripheral sales is the sneaker contract. When James first entered the league and was still a rookie, Nike signed a contract of 9,000 for 7 years, which also set a record for the largest contract for rookies in the league.
Tang Hao has been endorsing food and automobiles before, but compared to his influence, the number of endorses is significantly smaller. Especially after entering the NBA, the most popular sneaker contract has been blank.
Zhuang Jiajie kept watching until Nike couldn't wait and released this ultimate move.
"Oh? I'm really a little curious when you say that."
"We hope to sign a lifelong endorsement contract with you."
When Tang Hao heard what Cotterson said, he was stunned. Zhuang Jiajie had mentioned some things to him before about the endorsement contract, but this was the first time he had heard of such a lifelong contract.
"Lifelong?" Tang Hao smiled and said, "Are you going to buy out me?"
"Yes, we're going to buy out your sneakers." Cotterson did not hide his ambitions at all.
"So what about your offer?" Tang Hao looked at Cotterson curiously. He wanted to know where this white man, who was only 60 years old, or Nike behind him, got such confidence.
"Gentlemen, your coffee." The maid brought them coffee at this time.
Cotterson glanced at the maid at this time.
"Luna, you go down first." Tang Hao said.
The maid nodded, put down her coffee, and then left the living room.
Tang Hao picked up the coffee at this time, took a sip and looked at Cotterson.
Cotterson stretched out his two fingers at this time and continued, "$1 billion."
"Puff~" Zhuang Jiajie, who was drinking coffee beside him, squirted out directly.
Tang Hao also looked at Cotterson in shock.
1 billion US dollars, or 6.5 billion RMB...
A sneaker contract, the value, even a lifelong contract, is a real version of the real thing that kills people with money.
"Are you kidding?" Zhuang Jiajie wiped his mouth at this time and asked. Kotson had been keeping him indifferent before, but now he really shocked him.
"Zhuang, no matter how I say it, I am also the executive vice president of Nike." Kotson said in a calm tone.
Tang Hao drank coffee, put down the cup, then looked at Cotterson and said, "I am not very interested in signing a lifelong contract."
"Huh~"
When Tang Hao opened his mouth, Zhuang Jiajie's eyes widened, and he looked at Tang Hao incredible.
That's $1 billion, not $100 million, not $10 million.
Cotterson didn't seem to have expected Tang Hao to say that, and he followed: "1.5 billion, this is the largest contract we can give."
Tang Hao looked up at Cotterson. He didn't like lifelong contracts very much, but he didn't have the money to get over it.
"2 billion, 1 billion advance after the contract is signed." Tang Hao said.
Zhuang Jiajie took a deep breath. The business negotiations in front of him added 500 million at one time, which was really unheard of.
"I need to ask for advice from the board and give me fifteen minutes." Cotterson said.
Tang Hao made a gesture of asking for advice.
When Cotterson went out, Zhuang Jiajie lowered his voice and said, "That's 1.5 billion!"
From the tone, we can hear that Zhuang Jiajie could not remain calm in the face of such a large sum of money.
"It's just an icing on the cake." Tang Hao was very calm.
"Sometimes I really doubt your age, this money is enough to buy a small country."
"Is Zimbabwe?" Tang Hao said with a smile.
Zhuang Jiajie was amused and laughed out loud.
After about ten minutes, Cotson came back, his face full of smiles, and it seemed that he had done it.
"Dang, this is definitely the craziest decision I have ever seen." The first sentence that Cotterson said after entering had already explained the result.
"This will be the craziest contract I have ever seen." Zhuang Jiajie stood up with a smile.
At noon the next day, Nike held a press conference and announced that it had signed a lifelong endorsement contract with Tang Hao, with a contract of US$2 billion. At the press conference, both parties signed the contract and announced the official effect of the contract.
After the press conference was held, media and fans around the world fell into a state of madness.
"The first lifelong sneaker endorsement contract in human history has also been the largest endorsement contract in history. Unless this person is named Tang Hao, they will all be fake." The New York Times commented.
"US$2 billion is definitely an astronomical figure for most athletes, but for Tang Hao, it is definitely a low-risk and high-return investment. This is another gorgeous missed by Adidas." The Times made such a judgment.
"Sports athletes can also be worth tens of billions. Tang Hao explained how to become a rich and patriotic athlete. The charm of sports competition shines because of him." China Daily praised this.
At the same time, just after Tang Hao signed this endorsement contract, his Weibo fans directly increased from 40 million to 80 million. The explosive growth shows the unprecedented impact of this incident.
"However, Tang Hao can even become the first active player in history to have an NBA team!"
Some fans were even more surprised to find this.
