But what we can know is that Lu Yao's future is infinitely bright!
In Rich Paul's mansion, Lu Yao sat up from the comfortable bed, stretched out, and let out a comfortable groan.
It is indeed a luxurious villa, and it is really a pleasure to live in it!
After receiving the villa key from Rich Paul, Lu Yao moved from his small rental house without hesitation.
In just one night, Lu Yao felt extremely enjoyable.
The bed board in the small rental house before was a bit too hard, making it really uncomfortable to sleep on.
When you come here, all problems are solved.
Just when Lu Yao was about to drink a glass of water, his phone suddenly buzzed.
Lu Yao drowsily picked up his phone and squinted his eyes to take a look. Just this look made him happy!
In order to reward his performance in these games, the Thunder's uniform staff directly slapped one million on his card to provide an incentive!
That is to say, after Lu Yao renewed his contract, he played one game and directly received a bonus of one million US dollars.
Developed, developed, and now he is also a millionaire!
He excitedly counted the zeros on his phone and waved his hands cheerfully. Lu Yao still felt a little unreal when he experienced so much money entering his account.
But when Lu Yao took another look at the seven-zero payment, he suddenly lost this feeling.
What’s wrong with letting me enjoy the fight after fighting for so long?
Immediately, Lu Yao washed up, put on his clothes, and was ready to drive Rich Paul's luxury car out for some fun.
At this moment, the phone on his waist rang again, and this time, it was a call from Rich Paul.
Lu Yao frowned, did Rich Paul have anything to do with him at this time?
However, although the doubts in his heart were doubts, Lu Yao still answered the phone.
On the other end of the phone, Rich Paul's voice sounded congratulatory.
"Lu, congratulations. How does it feel to renew your contract with the Thunder with a maximum salary?"
Lu Yao didn't hesitate and said directly: "I feel very good now. The Thunder management just gave me one million US dollars as a bonus for the game."
Hearing this, Rich Paul on the other end of the phone was obviously taken aback, and then praised him.
"Not bad, Lu. I'm afraid you are the only rookie in history to receive such treatment. After the official contract renewal, you were rewarded one million U.S. dollars for just one game. I think you are the only one."
Lu Yao responded with a few words, and after the two chatted for a while, Rich Paul went straight to the topic.
"Lu Yao, what do you think of the agency contract I drew up for you yesterday?"
Yes, just yesterday, Lu Yao officially decided to sign a contract with Rich Paul. After all, among the agents who came into contact with him, only Rich Paul offered him the most conditions, even before signing the contract. He negotiated with management.
Lu Yao had to accept such sincerity.
Therefore, after Lu Yao told Rich Paul the news, Rich Paul excitedly agreed and immediately went to draw up an agent contract.
However, because Lu Yao felt tired after the game yesterday, he went home to wash up and went to sleep directly without reading the agent contract.
After hearing Rich Paul's words, Lu Yao remembered the agent contract and quickly took it out of his backpack.
After reading it carefully, Lu Yao was very satisfied with the contract.
Most of the many clauses in the contract are beneficial to Lu Yao. The proportion of the agent's salary is also a range of benefits for both parties.
Lu Yao didn't ask for too much, this was enough for him.
So he told Rich Paul all these ideas.
After hearing this, Rich Paul agreed and said: "Then it's decided. You still have some issues with your contract. I'll help you negotiate with the Thunder management. When you come back from the away game, we will formally sign the contract. "
Immediately, Rich Paul hung up the phone.
In the next game, Lu Yao will visit the San Antonio Spurs to face the Spurs, who are ranked third in the Western Conference.
This year's Spurs are last year's defending champions. Although the lineup is slightly weakened, they still have strong strength.
It is an existence that cannot be underestimated. Even Lu Yao was very energetic and went to the training hall to train...
Tonight, the Minnesota Timberwolves take on the Cleveland Cavaliers at home.
Andrew Wiggins, the talkative brother, defeated LeBron James and became the focus of this game.
In this game, Brother Zui played 40 minutes, efficiently scored 42 points, a near-triple-double, and hit a near-winner in the last minute.
The loss of this game also caused the Cavaliers to fall to the first place in the league, and were overtaken by the eager Warriors.
During the post-match interview, Brother Zui couldn't hide the joy on his face and answered the media's questions with a smile.
However, when the media asked what he thought of Lu Yao, Brother Zui's expression changed and he didn't know what to say.
After holding it in for a long time, Brother Zui slowly opened his mouth and said, "I think everyone's focus is now on others and they seem to have forgotten who is this year's No. 1 pick."
