The two superstars have become talkative.
You said one thing to another, and we talked for a full 10 minutes before we stopped because we were still unfinished.
"Shen Huan, brother!" Kobe just remembered the business at this time, "We have finished drinking the six bowls of holy water. Let's go to Chinatown to purchase new medicinal materials and start making them?"
"I heard just now that you are going back to China today?" Iverson also said: "Why don't you go back? You have such a good basketball talent, and you are definitely a first-class player in basketball! I and I Kobe can teach you his own skills and help you train. Not to mention you have this kind of holy water to help you. No one in the NBA in the next 20 years can beat you, I guarantee it!"
Hearing him talk about playing in the NBA, Kobe remembered another serious matter, "By the way, Shen Huan, come and play for our Lakers team! We two brothers will play together and we will beat them to death! Don't worry about the contract. First sign a mid-level contract worth 5 million US dollars a year, and in the second year, after they see your super strength, you won’t even care about the team without 20 million US dollars a year!”
Okay!
Boss Qiao previously wanted to get a bargain with a contract worth 200,000 a year, 300,000 a year, plus a non-guaranteed $500,000 in the third year.
As a result, Kobe Bryant got a mid-level contract worth 5 million a year when he started.
It’s really not money to be a Laker!
But when I think about it, Kobe is not a fool.
He must know that with Shen Huan's current strength, as long as he has a veteran like him to help him adapt to the environment quickly, he will definitely be worthy of a salary of 5 million, and it will be worth it!
Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to be so generous.
"Stop! Stop!"
Shen Huan was a little dizzy because of the noise between the two of them, "Let's do it the same way, okay?"
"good!"
"You decide!"
The two said at the same time.
"First, you can't boil a lot of this decoction at one time. The accuracy and efficacy are both a problem." Shen Huan said, "But the medicinal materials in it all need to be prepared on site by myself. Which ones should be put in first and which ones should be put in later?" Shen Huan said. The best is the degree, others can’t do it well.”
The two nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
Anyway, you are the boss now, whatever you say counts.
"So I bought the medicinal materials in advance yesterday." Shen Huan dragged up a large box from the corner of the room, "Let's buy five more casseroles and a few temporary gas stoves, and try to boil a few more medicines together, so that you can The leftover soup can be kept in the refrigerator for at least 7 days."
Buying those casseroles and gas stoves was actually a waste, but Kobe wouldn't mind the money.
But this is also a way to save as much time as possible to prepare medicine for them.
Moreover, the storage of traditional Chinese medicine for about 7 days is already a limit, and it is unrealistic to store it even in the refrigerator.
"It's only been seven days!" Iverson said with a lot of silly words: "I thought I could drink it for a lifetime! It would be great to drink it every day!"
Kobe greatly agreed with Iverson's words.
These two people completely forgot what their previous attitudes were.
Shen Huan remembered that they initially regarded strengthening the muscles and bones as a witchcraft potion, but what did they call it just now
Holy water!
This word already gives an idea of their pious attitude.
"This kind of decoction is too nutritious. Drinking it every day is unbearable and there is no need." Shen Huan did not explain any more to them. "According to Kobe's injury, it is estimated that after this time, he will have to drink it for another week." The decoction is enough.”
Shen Huan felt the power of the marrow-cleansing formula for strengthening muscles and bones.
Kobe and the others were just repairing sports injuries, and they didn’t need to cure them all. Drinking 16 days of decoction was more than enough.
If he was completely cured in one stage, and Kobe suddenly became a superman, how do you think the world would view Shen Huan
"Is it enough to just drink it for two more weeks?" Kobe said with a still unfinished expression, "Okay, but what about next week?"
The person he trusted the most at this time was Shen Huan.
After only drinking the holy water for 2 days, I have the current effect. If I drink it for another 14 days, I will still be able to catch the dragon in the sky and crouch in the ground.
With such a magical effect, Kobe really felt that winning his sixth championship ring was just around the corner.
"Aren't you going to China next month?" Shen Huan said, "It will be more convenient when you arrive in China. You can just stay in Lin'an for a week! Then I will make medicine for you every two days, so The effect will be even better.”
"good!"
Kobe nodded without hesitation, "Write me your address later and I'll try to come over as soon as possible."
"What about me?" Iverson was a little anxious.
"You don't play ball anymore. If you drink this decoction for a week, your physical fitness will be restored." Shen Huan said.
"No, brother!" Iverson said quickly: "Don't forget that I turned 40 last month, but my experience and passion for playing are still there! Even if I can't play in the NBA, I can still play in other countries. Let’s play in the league!”
Seeing Shen Huan looking at him in disbelief, Iverson scratched his head and smiled awkwardly: "Well, I actually want to play basketball for two more years. You know, my expenses are very big... If there is no income, I I’m not used to it either.”
In her previous life, Shen Huan had read some information about Iverson after his retirement.
At first there were rumors that he was bankrupt and down and out.
But then someone really started to reveal Iverson's asset allocation, and found that although this guy was generous, his asset manager was still very responsible.
During his heyday, an asset manager bought him a $35 million fixed-amount trust fund, which could not be withdrawn until he was 50 years old. Even if he wanted to withdraw it in advance, it would be impossible.
This is to prevent him from misusing money and going bankrupt.
Of course, this trust fund is not without any income. It can bring him US$1 million in dividends every year. This ensures that Iverson can maintain a comfortable life as a rich man at least until he is 50 years old.
In addition, Iverson also signed a lifetime contract with Reebok. As the lifetime spokesperson of Reebok, Reebok will give him at least millions of endorsement fees every year - if it is only a few hundred thousand, you say Reebok Can you afford this shame
This is another big income.
Not to mention that the NBA also has a very good pension system.
When players play, the NBA will forcefully deduct a sum from their salary as pension savings.
The more you deduct, the bigger your pension will be in the future.
According to Iverson's big-name salary, it is said that if he starts receiving it at the age of 50, he can get about 70,000 US dollars a year. If he starts receiving it at the age of 62, it will be 200,000 US dollars per year.
Tell me, how could such a person be down and out
But now Iverson is telling Shen Huan that he is not used to having no income, but he is not lying.
Because he has to support his divorced wife and children, as well as a group of friends who have always been with him. The 200 people at his peak are not an accurate number. There are more than a dozen friends who have always been with Iverson. Even when Iverson was at his lowest, they didn't leave. They always rushed to the forefront of everything.
Among the friendships between black buddies, this is the most ironclad.
Shen Huan didn't understand their lifestyle, but it had nothing to do with him.
From getting along with each other these days, we know that Iverson is a very good person, much more interesting than Kobe, so it is impossible for Shen Huan not to help him.
Even if Haoye didn't give him a reward task to help Iverson, Shen Huan was still willing to help him.
When dealing with friends, I can't focus on what I can get.
Usually people who think like this never end up doing well.
"All right!"
Shen Huan nodded, "Come here with Kobe and call me two days in advance so I can prepare."
After hesitating for a moment, Shen Huan said again: "Alan, you are already 40 years old, so just drink for 4 more days, for a total of 20 days! This should be enough."
"Okay, okay!" Iverson smiled from ear to ear.
"Hey, Shen Huan, why does he have to drink for 20 days?" Kobe was angry, "I, Kobe! But people who want to play in the NBA are so intense and those people are so mean, I only drink for 16 days , can you withstand it? Don’t forget, I am also 37 years old!!”
"Alright alright."
There was nothing Shen Huan could do against him. He was a stubborn and unreasonable person. If he argued with him, he would be the only one who would suffer.
"It's just that you have to coordinate your time. After all, you will have to stay in Lin'an for about 10 days, which will be detrimental to your training camp promotion." Shen Huan warned.
"No problem!" Kobe has been to China more than a dozen times, and he also learned a little about Shen Huan before coming here. "Isn't your Lin'an only a 2-hour drive from Shanghai? I will go to Shanghai in the morning and bring a bowl with me. If you use the decoction to deal with the time at noon, and come back to drink it in the evening, won't you delay nothing?"
Huh!
Shen Huan gave Kobe a thumbs up.
I can’t tell you that you are a super domineering player when you are playing, but you are still very flexible when you are off the court!
This is not bad!
The tens of millions of Kobe fans in Shanghai should thank me for finding Kobe for them! If it weren't for me, would Kobe have been able to go to Shanghai for so many consecutive days
"Come to think of it, I can't do nothing while staying in China." Iverson is still very professional. "I'll ask Reebok if I can also organize in China." A training camp! Then Kobe and I will advance and retreat together, and we can play screens together."
Kobe nodded.
Although I have been to China more than a dozen times, I would still feel much more comfortable if I could have one more good friend here.
As for how Nike and Reebok negotiate, that is their own business.
At that time, whether it is competition or cooperation, it will not affect the friendship between the two of them.
The most important thing is that it will not affect your own injury treatment.
Hey Hey…
Those who have hurt me, those who look down on me, those who think I will never get up again...
Just wait!
I, Kobe, am destined to return as the king and beat you all to the point of calling you daddy! !
…
There will be more later
