On July 1st, together with his manager, Ye Qiu officially signed a contract with Philadelphia Digital Man.
Ye Qiu signed a three-year contract worth 3.6 million USD with the Sixers.
In his previous life, during the 98/99 season, the first round of the season was changed from a three-year system to a four-year system after the discussion of the various bosses. The fourth year was an option for the team. After the contract expired, the rookie player would become a restricted free agent.
3.6 million in three years was probably Ye Qiu's "first bucket of gold" in his life. Unfortunately, it was not easy for young people to earn money.
On the day of the signing ceremony, Ye Qiu wanted to ask Allen Iverson why he fed him the ball during the joint trial.
However, the top scorer was too popular with the media. After Allen Iverson signed with the Philadelphia 76ers, Iverson, who was holding the number 3 jersey of the 76ers, was surrounded by the media.
In his previous life, Ye Qiu knew very well how popular Iverson was. During his rookie season, he had signed a ten-year,$50 million endorsement contract with Reebok Sports.
The contract also stipulated that if " The Answer " made it to the All-Stars for three consecutive years, the contract would automatically become a lifetime contract. So if you saw news of the top scorer selling pizza or sneakers at roadside stalls in the future, please ignore it.
It was fine to just watch, because even if they went bankrupt, their lives would still be comfortable.
Having lived two lives, Ye Qiu knew how terrifying the sales of the "Answer" series were. Because the top scorer was about the same height as an ordinary person, the "Answer" series of sneakers became popular all over the world once they were released.
As for the origin of Allen Iverson's nickname," The Answer," it had to be a small episode. During the crazy March of the NCAA, Iverson gave an interview to the media.
It turned out that when Iverson was in Pennsylvania, his "friends" said he was the "answer" because Iverson scored as easily as chopping melons and dunking as easily as eating.
As a result, Answer had long since tattooed the word " Answer " on his arm, and the media noticed that Iverson had never hidden his past.
Iverson was popular for a reason. He was straightforward, unrestrained, and had a distinct personality.
Stern was undoubtedly a shrewd businessman, and Grant Hill, who was clean and gentlemanly, was a model that Stern hoped to establish.
Although he was independent, rampaging, and his social circle was a mess, he still had to praise the 'bad boy' who was the 'answer' to the question. A different kind of person like the '183 top scorer' was the idol of many poor black children.
Ye Qiu knew that he probably wouldn't have the chance to ask Iverson why he was feeding him the ball today, because that guy was surrounded by the media. Then, Ye Qiu, wearing the number 23 jersey, walked into another media group.
It couldn't be helped. Who asked my Brother Qiu to be the first player to step out of the country and enter the NBA? Earlier, he had even appeared on the Philadelphia Evening News for his bravery. Moreover, the Gemini formed by Kobe had its own traffic. How could Ye Qiu be let off by the media?
It had to be known that at the beginning, after the joint trial, the NBA wanted to interview Ye Qiu. However, Ye Qiu's performance in the trial was really outstanding, so the NBA decided to change the interview to after the summer league ended.
"Ye, can you tell us why you chose the number 23 jersey?”A Philadelphia reporter asked Ye Qiu.
"You know, I used to wear the number 3 jersey, but now the number 3 belongs to Alan. Then I wanted to pick the number 24 jersey, but unfortunately, I no longer had the chance to wear the number 24 jersey in Philadelphia, so I randomly picked the number 23 jersey. This is great, I can accept it because my best friend Kobe Bryant once wore the number 24 jersey. I think I'm a little weaker than Kobe Bryant now, so 24 minus 1, isn't that 23?”Ye Qiu replied after thinking for a while.
The reporters were stunned by Ye Qiu's question!
F * ck, there was actually such an interpretation of the number 23 jersey? In the 1990s, because of Michael Jordan, number 23 was now covered in a mythical protective shell.
"Ye Qiu, you're the first player from China to enter the NBA. Do you have anything to say to your countrymen?”Su Qun, who was mixed in the crowd, hurriedly raised his microphone and asked after Ye Qiu finished answering the question.
After Ye Qiu entered the Beast Battle League, Su Qun successfully took over the Great Dynasty Sports News department in America.
Yes! Although it was called a department, it was actually just Su Qun himself. Rather than calling him a reporter stationed in the US, he might as well call himself the station chief of Chaos City.
Hearing Su Qun's question, Ye Qiu paused for a moment before replying in Chinese,"I will make the people of the country proud of me. The descendant of the dragon will not bring shame to China!”
After hearing Ye Qiu's words, Su Qun silently gave Ye Qiu a thumbs up.
After that, Ye Qiu still had many problems waiting for him.
Not to mention, the reporters in the 1990s were not sharp at all! Ye Qiu felt that it was too boring. He wasn't even interested in arguing with them.
Ye Qiu turned into a dragon on the left and a rainbow on the right, practicing Tai Chi!
Cough cough, under Ye Qiu's perfection, the reporters were completely fooled by Ye Qiu.
"Is this really just an 18-year-old child? He's as smart as a monkey!"
At this moment, many reporters sighed inwardly.
Just like that, the signing ceremony between Ye Qiu and Digital Man ended happily. A few minutes after he left, Ye Qiu received a call from Kobe.
After Kobe signed the contract, he couldn't wait to call Ye Qiu. Just like in Ye Qiu's previous life, Kobe chose number 8.
During the joint trial, the little blacksmith wore number 143. In this life, he was chosen on number 8, so Little Mamba felt that number 8 was very memorable.
In fact, the proud Kobe wanted number 24, but the number 24 of the Laker was already worn by someone else, so the little viper could only choose number 8.
Ye, you chose number 23?" Kobe asked in surprise.
Ye Qiu smiled." That's right. I told the reporters that I wanted to pick number 24 at first. I feel that I'm a little weaker than you now, so I picked number 23."”
Even though Ye Qiu was 108,000 miles away and Kobe was cheering at the end of the match, wouldn't Little Viper be so excited that he couldn't sleep?
"Handsome, so handsome. I'll wear the number 24 of the Laker in the future.”Kobe laughed.
Ugh! Just this? I don't even need you to say it. I know you'll definitely wear number 24 in the future.
It had been two years since he came to this world. Even now, Ye Qiu felt like he was dreaming.
"After the summer league is over, I'll bring you to Los Angeles to see what the world is like.”Kobe said to Ye Qiu at the end of the call.
