Chapter 408
Su almost possesses everything, as long as it can be sustained.
Su, I am optimistic about you!!!"
"I will work hard for it."
Su Yan focused his mind.
Wanting to reach that height of Jordan is indeed very difficult, but... that is not Su Yan's final goal.
Possessing the 【Basketball God System】, "Jordan Successor" is just a stepping stone for him.
He must eventually surpass Jordan and become the "Number One Person in NBA History"!!!
9:00 PM.
The duel between the Bulls and the Nets arrived.
In the last encounter, Su Yan became the youngest 30-double-double man, tearing the Nets apart on the road.
Tonight at the Bulls' home court, more advantage?
Theoretically: Yes.
Actually: No.
Tonight, the Bulls' Su Yan, Pippen, Yao, and Chandler are all suspended.
The "Dragon Kingdom Twin Stars" are both absent, facing the Nets who have entered the Finals for 2 consecutive years, how could there be a chance?
Impossible.
The Bulls suffered a crushing defeat, and the 15-game winning streak ended.
However... this result was not surprising to anyone, and everyone could accept it.
Next game.
Yao returns, after 3 games, Pippen returns, after 5 games, Su Yan can come back.
This also means... for the next week or so, the Bulls will be led by "Little Giant" Yao alone.
Before this.
Last year, he always had "Franchise" Steve Francis leading the charge beside him.
This season so far, Su Yan has always been leading the charge, and he, as the second-in-command, contributed strength to the team's victory.
And now.
The team needs him to lead the team forward alone.
For such a schedule, Yao was a bit uneasy, and also a bit expectant, he also wanted to see how his ability to lead the team alone was.
How?
Not satisfactory.
After all... the Bulls, excluding Su Yan and Yao, the rest of the players are really relatively weak, the team has been at the bottom of the East for many consecutive years, it's not just talk.
The team is really not good.
So much so that in the 5 games Su Yan was absent, the Bulls lost 4 of them, only winning one against the Magic, who were the last in the East.
This was still when McGrady was resting due to calf soreness.
1 win and 4 losses, quite poor.
However.
Bulls head coach, Coach Skiles was not unhappy at all, on the contrary... he was quite satisfied with Yao's performance.
These 5 games.
Yao averaged 26.5 points, 12.5 rebounds, 2 assists, 0.5 steals, 3.0 blocks.
And so far this season, Yao averaged 20.8 points, 11.6 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 0.5 steals, 2.1 blocks.
In comparison.
During the single-core period, Yao's data all sublimated, although the efficiency decreased slightly, but... he also faced higher defensive pressure.
This is already quite good.
Second-year Yao, after experiencing the low point some time ago, now also presents some ability as a team leader, and the future is promising.
Then.
What does it matter if you lose the game.
When Su Yan comes back, as time goes by, as the two continue to grow, the "Dragon Kingdom Twin Stars" are destined to explode the league.
Speaking of Su Yan.
During the suspension, he was not idle either.
First, he went to Nike to shoot a sneaker pictorial, shot some advertisements, and then received a quarter's salary.
20 million USD a year, 5 million USD a quarter, after deducting taxes, he got about 3 million USD.
Then the endorsed Oreo also shot advertisements and posters.
5 million USD a year, also received a quarter's salary, 1.25 million USD, after deducting taxes, about 750,000 USD.
In short.
During the suspension, Su Yan received a total of 3.75 million USD.
This was not over yet.
Because it was during the suspension, everyone knew that Su Yan could not play, and knew that he had been relatively free for the past week or so.
Taking advantage of the time.
Major companies all came to Su Yan wanting to endorse them.
During this period, Rich Paul was busy to death, tired to the ground, of course... painful but happy, this is the time for his rise.
This point in time is the time for his hard work.
Regardless of day or night.
Crazily working, crazily negotiating, crazily screening.
A suit, a casual outfit, a men's perfume, three snacks, a drink, a total of seven endorsements were accepted.
All were for a period of 2 years.
A total value of 50 million USD.
Each endorsement company was very generous in giving a quarter's salary first, a total of 12.5 million USD, after taxes, about 7.5 million USD.
Stacked together.
In the week or so of suspension, Su Yan earned 11.25 million USD crazily.
This is real money in hand.
In '04, at the time when Su Yan was just 20 years old, earning this much money in a quarter, it was really... terrifying to this extent.
On the internet.
When fans knew that Su Yan had accepted seven endorsements and earned 50 million USD crazily, they shed tears of envy again.
What about Su Yan?
Earning so much money, just earning it?
No.
If you earn money and don't spend it, what is the meaning of earning money?
The most painful thing in the world is that a person dies and the money is not spent.
Then as a man, what does Su Yan love most?
Besides beauties, the next must be... cars.
Su Yan already owned a currently popular BMW X3, and BMW's high-end brand is: Rolls-Royce.
This is indeed a super luxury car.
However... it is generally used more for companies, or big tycoons need such a car to show their identity.
Furthermore.
Like renting a car for a wedding or something.
Su Yan didn't like it very much, and felt it was unnecessary.
Volkswagen's top end is: Bentley.
Mercedes-Benz's top end is: Maybach.
