From March Madness to July of this year...
With the friendship established through "World of Warcraft," Lao Yao, knowing the storms ahead, was so decisive and firm in his decision to shield Xiaoxin from the storm.
Moreover, with Schwartz finalizing Qin Yue’s cooperation with Coca-Cola in early July...
After the Asian Championship, Qin Yue will also participate with Yao Ming and Jas in Coca-Cola’s promotional activities in China.
To win against Pepsi in the bidding war, Coca-Cola offered Qin Yue a five-year contract with a total value of over 20 million US Dollars, plus a signing bonus of 3 million.
This contract is even larger than the one Jas signed with Coca-Cola back then.
Because Coca-Cola firmly believes that Qin Yue, who has already signed with Nike, is definitely worth the investnt for them.
After all, in a sense, without bidding with Adi and Reebok, Qin Yue received a seven-year bid of 70 million US Dollars from Nike and had franchise inco rights...
His current status at Nike is like that of a new prince.
Nike sees Qin Yue as their key to the Chinese market.
They hope to form a future Nike Empire’s dual pillars with him as the Son of China and Jas as the Chosen One.
With Nike paving the way in front, in July of this year...
Sponsors naturally wouldn’t hesitate to invest in Qin Yue.
On July 14, before going to Houston to train with Yao Ming, Schwartz once again brought good news to Qin Yue.
The Cadbury Schweppes Company offered Qin Yue a four-year contract with a total value of over 5 million US Dollars, hoping Qin Yue would help promote their "Bubblicious" chewing gum.
It is worth ntioning that the other famous NBA endorser of this chewing gum is LeBron Jas.
At this mont, although he hasn’t yet entered the league, Qin Yue has vaguely sensed a big hand controlling everything from behind the scenes...
The Nike Empire, on the planning of Lynn rritt, has officially started this campaign called the new prince’s coronation.
Before Qin Yue’s crossing, many people often said that Nike’s influence on the NBA was not that significant.
But actually...
Nike’s influence on the NBA might be greater than those people imagined.
Because the so-called Nike Empire, never just refers to Nike alone.
But also Nike and their partners.
Once Nike steps onto the field to bet, those partners will follow suit, and as the snowball rolls...
A large profit alliance is instantly ford.
"Sports Illustrated has chosen you as the cover person for their new issue."
"The New York Tis hopes to conduct another exclusive interview with you."
"The San Francisco Chronicle wants to learn more about you before you participate in the Asian Championship."
"The famous biographer Roland Lazebnik wants to write a biography for you titled ’True Qin Yue.’"
In July of this year, the new prince of Nike, Qin Yue, has beco a hot topic in the basketball world.
Feeling himself completely overwheld, he even at a certain mont deeply wished he could have the divine ability of the "Shadow Clone Technique"...
Because only then could he devote more ti and energy to training.
"You haven’t seen anything yet? Wait until you return ho... You’ll understand what it ans by the phrase ’streets deserted, crowded with people’." On this day, Yao Ming, after giving Qin Yue his signature wry smile, spoke from his experience.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yue was completely devastated.
Being soone who’s also been through this, he knows very well that Yao Ming is not exaggerating in the slightest.
"Lao Yao, how do you deal with these things every ti you go back to China?" Qin Yue asked curiously, looking at Yao Ming.
"What else can I do? Soldiers fight when enemies co, water overcos earth, and with our body size and build... even if you cover your face, fans can recognize you."
"So, when we return ho, unlike other celebrities, we don’t need to wear masks everywhere?"
"Now you know why when you created a character (in ’World of Warcraft’), I suggested we both pick gnos?"
Under Yao Ming’s continuous encouragent and reassurance...
Qin Yue quickly adjusted himself.
Then, after this special training began, Qin Yue discovered that...
Yao Ming’s actual weight is far more than the 140 kilograms listed on the official website.
Because NBA stars don’t weigh themselves all the ti, in the NBA...
The weight of stars after entering the NBA has always been a mystery.
But thinking about it, with Yao Ming already exceeding 130 kilograms just by his fra during the draft, after gaining muscle over the years, how could he now be only 140 kilograms?
Everyone knows that at 135 kilograms, Yao Ming still looked like a big bamboo pole.
So, after becoming stronger, his current weight has already reached 145 kilograms. (Note 1)
And since the Houston Rockets, with fewer offensive plays under Jeff Van Gundy’s tactical system, need to further increase their success rate per play...
Therefore, Yao Ming, who has to bear a large offensive burden on the court, inevitably has to gain more weight.
During the special training, Yao Ming revealed his upcoming weight gain plan to Qin Yue.
kilograms to 155 kilograms.
"Lao Yao, are you gaining this much weight... planning to play against aliens?" One day, looking at Yao Ming, Qin Yue jested.
Upon hearing this, Yao Ming was initially stunned, then paused, "O’Neal weighed over 160 kilograms last season, so I have to gain weight to match up with him."
