Chapter 1561: Running Away

"Hi, Maria, what's wrong?" Lin Feng saw a trace of sadness on Sarapova's face at a glance.

Sarapova shrugged and sighed.

"I'm waiting for a test report." Sarapova said in a low tone.

Inspection Report? ——Lin Feng was stunned.

"When I won the championship in Wenzhou, I had a minor injury on my shoulder. I felt particularly painful after yesterday's match, so I went to have it checked again. Now I'm waiting for the test results," Sharapova said.

Injury is a hardship that every athlete must encounter. Therefore, Lin Feng can only express regret for Sarapova's shoulder injury and hope that she will be fine. However, in Lin Feng's memory, Sarapova was in very good health, so the injury this time was probably a minor one.

"By the way, Maria, I plan to set up a sporting goods company, so I would like to invite you to be my advertising spokesperson." Lin Feng handed Sharapova a contract, "I hope this contract can bring you good things." Good luck, I hope your shoulder injury is just a minor problem and nothing serious.”

Sarapova nodded, hoping so. My football career has just started, and I don’t want to end it due to a shoulder injury. If so, that would be a bit sad.

"Hey, Lin, your sporting goods company doesn't have any brands or products?" Sarapova looked at the contract and felt a little stupid.

Although Sarapova has just debuted, she has already become the darling of the advertising industry with her beautiful appearance. Therefore, she has received a lot of advertising contracts. As for sports brands, she has also received contracts from world-class brands such as "ke". It can be said that Sharapova is very familiar with advertising endorsement contracts.

But even though Sarapova is well-informed, she has never seen such a weird contract as Lin Feng. In Lin Feng's contract, except for the number of years and time of the contract, there is nothing else. In other words, this is almost a blank contract. Of course, it's not the kind of blank contract where you can't get any money, but the kind of contract where you don't know what you're endorsing.

Sarapova looked at Lin Feng with a strange look on her face, as if she were looking at a liar.

"Haha, Maria, my sporting goods company is still planning and building, so I don't know how many varieties it has yet, but one thing I can guarantee is that this sporting goods company will be the future One of the largest sporting goods companies in the world," Lin Feng said a little embarrassed. Originally, this sporting goods company was a temporary initiative, so everything was still under construction. The important thing now is to attract people first and then build the product.

Sarapova was speechless for a while. If he hadn't known that Lin Feng was the world's richest man, he might have thought that Lin Feng was a huge liar. No, if he is worse than a liar, he should be called a magic stick.

After all, if a liar wants to deceive people, he has to fake it, and Lin Feng's contract doesn't include anything except a simple price and number of years. Usually, this kind of thing is only done by magicians.

"Lin, you are really a blank check. But I am willing to believe you. I believe you are not the kind of person who gives people a blank check and makes nothing in vain. However, I now have a contract with Nike, from head to toe. Basically, I have to wear Nike clothes and shoes (referring to sports). I'm afraid I can't sign with your company," Sarapova said helplessly.

Relying on Sarapova's beautiful appearance, "ke" signed a contract with Sarapova when she was unknown. After he won the championship in Wenzhou, his contract was only due to expire in two years. In order to secure the future little queen of the football world, "ke" immediately offered a lucrative contract worth five years and US$10,000. Immediately, Sarapova readily signed the contract. After all, the previous contract with "ke" was only one million US dollars per year, which was completely incomparable with this five-year contract of 50,000 US dollars.

But after Sharapova won the U.S. championship again, this already very lucrative contract changed again. "Ke" handed over an eight-year contract worth 80,000 yuan, hoping to lock Sharapova in for life.

Originally, Sharapova was not prepared to sign the contract and wanted to reconsider. But the pain from her shoulder injury made Sharapova finally decide to follow her parents' advice and sign an eight-year, $10,000 contract. After all, if the shoulder injury was really serious and affected her competitive status, "ke" would not give Sarapova such a generous contract. Eighty thousand US dollars, which is enough to become the most valuable female football player.

Unexpectedly, he had just signed a contract this morning and met Lin Feng for coffee at noon, but this happened to him. Lin Feng actually handed over a contract, which completely surprised Sarapova. Although Sarapova wanted to return Lin Feng's favor, she couldn't do it now.

"Are you worried about liquidated damages?" Lin Feng saw Sarapova's troubled face and vaguely guessed her difficulty.

Sarapova nodded.

"Lin, I can tell you frankly. I just signed a contract for eight years, with liquidated damages of up to 100 million U.S. dollars," Sharapova said.

One hundred million U.S. dollars? ——Lin Feng frowned slightly. If you want Sarapova to change careers, you have to pay 100 million US dollars. Although Sarapova is worth this price, the price is a bit too high, not to mention giving away 100 million US dollars for nothing. Lin Feng is a little unhappy.

"By the way, when did you sign the contract?" Lin Feng asked after thinking about it.

"Signed in the morning and sent the contract two hours ago." Sarapova looked at her watch and said.

Lin Feng thought about it for a while. "ke" is headquartered in Beavertown, Oregon. It takes some time to send it from New York, even if it is airmail. It's still in time to get this contract back. But the question now is whether Sharapova is willing to sign with his own company. If she is willing, Lin Feng can create a god to get the contract. If she is not willing, then it is useless for Lin Feng to get the contract back. After all, Lin Feng can't force Sharapova to sign.

"Maria, you don't have to worry about the contract. I just want to tell you now, are you willing to sign with my company?" Lin Feng asked.

Sharapova frowned slightly. Lin Feng's question is quite a headache for her. Since she just started playing, she accepted the sponsorship of "ke". It was also because of the sponsorship of "ke" that Sharapova got through the initial period of poor performance and little bonus. Now let her decide to break up with "ke" and sign with Lin Feng, it is really a bit difficult to decide.

"Maria, don't be embarrassed. Even if we can't cooperate, we are still friends." Lin Feng smiled.

Sharapova was slightly stunned when she heard this, and then she smiled calmly. The knot in her heart was untied because of Lin Feng's words.

"That's right, even if we can't cooperate, we are still friends." Sharapova smiled and stretched out her hand.

A dim light flashed in Lin Feng's eyes, but he still stretched out his hand.

"I'm sorry that I can't cooperate with you. But Maria, if you want to change your job in the future, the door I just opened will always be open to you." Although Lin Feng was disappointed, he had to maintain his demeanor. Moreover, for Lin Feng, disappointment is not a bad thing.

Life is like a roller coaster, always ups and downs. If it is smooth all the way, no matter how much money you make or how much power you have, you will eventually get tired of it. Therefore, it is definitely a good thing for life to have occasional ups and downs. Only in this way can you learn to cherish what you have now.

But at this moment, things took a turn.

"Since we are friends, I should help my friends even more. I am willing to be a signed star of your company, but the price cannot be less." Sharapova smiled and shook Lin Feng's hand heavily, with a teasing smile on her face.

Stunned! This...what's going on? ——Lin Feng was a little confused. Didn't they say that we couldn't cooperate? Why did they cooperate again?

"Haha, Lin, I was just joking just now. You also said that even if we don't cooperate, we are still friends. Since we are friends, we should naturally try our best to help friends. So, I am willing to be a signed star of your company." Sharapova smiled mischievously.

Lin Feng was stunned! Looking at Sharapova's mischievous smile, he realized that this little girl was joking with him.

"Then my Maria, sign it quickly." Lin Feng opened the contract and pointed at it.

"Okay. I'll sign it now, but you can handle the rest." Sharapova signed it readily.

"Don't worry, leave it to me." Lin Feng also signed his name and broke up with Sharapova readily.

"Maria, I'll go and deal with your contract now. Then this meal will be yours. I just signed a fat contract. I have to treat you to celebrate!" Lin Feng joked.

"You are the boss, I am an employee, how can an employee treat the boss to a meal." Sharapova said angrily with her hands on her hips. Although Lin Feng gave her a contract that was no worse than "ke", you, Lin Feng, are you so stingy about a meal!

"Hehe, then let's see who runs away first." Lin Feng turned around and ran away.

"You... are such a bastard!" Sharapova looked at Lin Feng who was running away and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. I didn't expect that Lin Feng, who is the richest man in the world, is still so childish. This is really too interesting.

"Miss, you don't really want to run away!" A waiter looked at Sharapova vigilantly.

Obviously, this waiter was too ignorant and it was understandable that he didn't know Lin Feng. After all, even in the United States, not everyone knows the former richest man in the world, Bill Gates. But now that the US has just ended, Sharapova, who reversed the big Venus Williams to win the US, doesn't know it. This can only be said that this waiter is too ignorant.

"This is US dollars, no need to change." Sharapova handed the waiter a hundred-dollar bill helplessly.

The waiter left happily, and Sharapova shook her head helplessly, making up her mind - I will run first next time.

Four hours later, Lin Feng arrived in Beavertown, Oregon, and his destination was the ke headquarters.
