172 Security Is Pretty Good

Xia He folded her arms and nodded in confirmation.

Zhang Jun couldn't help but look at her suspiciously and said, "Don't tell me that you have used up all the money here."

Last time when he renovated the house and built the swimming pool, Zhang Jun couldn't stand Xia He's chattering, so he directly gave her his bank card, which also contained most of Zhang Jun's salary.

Including Nike endorsements, underwear endorsements and player salaries, it is a considerable amount. Except for Zhang Jun's salary from the team, basically all the money is here.

In addition to the big sales of sneakers this time, Nike's management took into account that Zhang Jun still had a rookie contract and didn't have much money in his hands, so they paid the three-year endorsement contract amount in one lump sum.

There are tens of millions in it.

Seeing Zhang Jun's suspicious eyes, Xia He raised her head and said proudly: "There are 3.65 yuan in total."

"What!"

Hearing this, Zhang Jun was so angry that his scalp numbed, "You reduced my tens of millions of funds to only 3.65 yuan?"

Zhang Jun was so angry that he wanted to press Xia He to the ground and spank her. He originally thought that Xia He was so confident that she might be able to give him a surprise, but it turned out that this was not a surprise at all, it was simply a shock.

Xia He proudly extended her hand to stop the excited Zhang Jun and said, "Don't be anxious, listen to me."

"I used the money here to buy shares in your name, two of which are from China's Tengxun and Ali Baba, and the other two are from the United States Amazon and Apple."

"Now, you are already a small shareholder of these four companies."

Zhang Jun was stunned. He knew about Amazon and Apple. The powerful giant companies in the future would all have skyrocketing stock prices. If Zhang Jun remembered correctly, there was an Amazon employee in his previous life who would take out part of his monthly salary to buy the company's stocks. He persisted for 6 years and finally became a billionaire to enjoy retirement life in advance. The annual dividends were enough to travel around the world.

As a Harvard economics graduate, it is not particularly surprising that Xia He has such a far-sighted vision. After all, she is a native American, but her skin color is the same as Zhang Jun's, and she looks like an Asian no matter how you look at it.

In the United States, there are many investors who are optimistic about Amazon and Apple.

But Zhang Jun was very surprised that Xia He would buy the stocks of Tengxun and Ali Baba in China.

These two companies are the future leaders of China. Ma Ying can become the richest man in China with 7% of the shares. Ma Huateng has sold traffic to the sky and is the first person to make a fortune from traffic. The two were also called the Twin Ma by people in the previous life.

Xia He was able to take a fancy to these two Chinese companies in the United States at first sight. It can be said that she has a sharp vision.

Seeing Zhang Jun's surprised look, Xia He was very satisfied. She pushed Zhang Jun to the seat, then stretched out her arms and put them around his neck and said.

"These stocks have different rights. Although you cannot participate in the management meeting and make decisions, and cannot maximize your own interests, you can participate in the annual dividends, and of course you can sell the shares in your hands."

"Although the stocks I bought for you this year have appreciated a lot, I don't recommend you to do so, because I can assure you that these stocks will appreciate significantly in the future."

The dividends will not be distributed until the annual meetings of these companies are held, and the financial department publishes the income and expenditure of the year. Moreover, most of the first-year shareholders will find it difficult to get this money. Zhang Jun will probably have to wait until the end of this year to get this money.

Diana echoed on the side: "I don't know about the two companies in China, but the stocks of these two American companies have risen by almost 15% this year."

"This year is also called the American Year of the Ox by those people in the financial street, so Xia He's operations have helped you earn at least nearly one million US dollars."

Zhang Jun nodded, and at this time he couldn't help but look at his sister who had always been a lazy person in his eyes.

Today he really looked at her with a new eye.

Xia He snorted and continued proudly: "I didn't take your 1% for nothing. Brothers and sisters should settle accounts clearly."

"I also have an idea now. After this season, your fame will soar again. I plan to sell your fame."

"Fame?" Zhang Jun looked at the nervous Xia He and couldn't believe it. Fame can actually be sold?

Xia He explained, "There is no precedent for this, but Diana and I will help you solve this problem."

"The specific operation is to allow some companies to use your reputation and portrait rights free of charge, and to launch some activities in your name. You can even endorse them for free, but the premise is to sell you some stocks at a low price, or directly use stocks to obtain your rights."

"I also suggest that you do not sign a contract with the NBA for the use of reputation and portrait rights. Keep this privilege firmly in your own hands. The more famous you are in the future, the greater the profit you can get from it."

Diana said, "You are not the first player who has not signed a contract with the NBA for the use of reputation and portrait rights. LeBron James of the Cavaliers has not sold these rights."

"Last season, the Cavaliers made the finals, and ESPN wanted to start filming a documentary about LeBron James' career. As a result, when they went to the NBA office to discuss cooperation, they found that they had no right to film. If they want to do this, they can't bypass James' personal team."

Zhang Jun thought of Slam Dunk in his previous life. Jordan did not get the bulk of the profit from this popular movie. In fact, the NBA headquarters made the biggest profit. This is because they obtained Jordan's reputation and image rights in advance. .

James has been a business genius since he was a child, and he also attaches great importance to this. If Zhang Jun remembers correctly, the shares of Liverpool owned by James in his previous life were obtained by selling his reputation and image rights.

Zhang Jun shook his head. He didn't have much interest in this aspect. He had been busy with money in his previous life. He didn't want to live for money again in this life, so he decided to hand it all over to Xia He. deal with.

Although this old lady always loves to go against him and wants him to be single with her, Zhang Jun can definitely trust Xia He in terms of trust.

The proud Xia He proposed to go to Hawaii. She heard that it was a paradise for athletes to vacation during the off-season. She also wanted to go to Las Vegas. She had wanted to go there for a long time.

"You can't refuse me, I've made a lot of money for you."

Zhang Jun originally wanted to refuse, because he had to go to too many places and it would take up too much of his time. He had already thought about intensive training in the off-season and returning to the factory for upgrades.

However, under Xia He's coercion and temptation, Zhang Jun could only compromise.

Diana was also invited by Xia He, and the two are now good best friends.

Diana couldn't help but glance at Zhang Jun, wanting to see his reaction, but Zhang Jun pinched her little face and said, "What's wrong, you can't take a break after working for me for a year?"

"Relax Diana, and don't think about work all day long. I won't allow you to do that."

Diana blushed even more when she heard this, and whispered in her heart: "This bad boy."

.........

June 1st.

The Celtics defeated the Pistons 4:2.

The Big Three of the Celtics had a rough road to the playoffs this year. They were first dragged to the tiebreaker by the weak Hawks. Although they won the last game with a crushing 99:65, they had to It means taking off a layer of skin.

Immediately afterwards, the Celtics had another tiebreaker with last season's Eastern Conference champion Cavaliers. If it weren't for the fact that Pierce scored 41 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists in the final game of the final game, he would have lost the game against Biao James. With 45 points, 5 rebounds and 6 assists, the Celtics are definitely going to be in trouble, and the Big Three will definitely become a laughing stock in the league.

Fortunately, besides James, the Cavaliers are James. The Cavaliers did not give James a decent helper throughout the playoffs. It is already good to be able to compete with the Celtics in the tiebreaker.

Originally, everyone was worried that the Celtics, who had gone through two rounds of tiebreakers, were extremely physically exhausted. After all, their Big Three were already very old, and they had gone through two rounds of hard battles. The playoff journey might be even more difficult. difficult.

As a result, the Celtics in the Eastern Conference finals got better and better because of these two rounds of hard battles, and the tacit understanding between the Big Three became even better. The old and powerful Pistons were no match for this team.

The entire series was almost suppressed. The only two wins were won by Richard Hamilton's explosive performance. But after all, Richard Hamilton is only an All-Star and not a league superstar. He is not There may be a big explosion in every game, and losing to the Celtics, who are in better shape, is inevitable.

The finals are here, and the yellow-green battle is on again.

These two teams, which have been fighting each other for several years in the history of the finals, meet again. The battle for hegemony is also a memory that countless fans have talked about for many years.

The finals haven't even started yet, and the popularity has been overwhelming, completely surpassing the popularity of the finals in previous years.

........

June 5th.

The Lakers lost the game 88:98. Kobe made 9 of 26 shots and scored 24 points, 3 rebounds and 6 assists.

Pierce played a terrifying offensive efficiency, making 7 of 10 shots and 5 of 7 free throws. He scored 22 points with a 70% shooting rate. Coupled with Garnett's double-double of 24 points and 13 rebounds, the Celtics Won the game without any bloodshed.

June 7th.

The Lakers lost the game again 102:108. Kobe exploded and scored 30 points, 4 rebounds and 8 assists, but they were still unable to compete with the Celtics.

Gasol, who had faced various abuses by the Trail Blazers before, encountered great restrictions when facing Garnett, the wolf king, and his data in all aspects was completely crushed.

More importantly, Bynum left the game due to injury midway through the game.

After the game, the Lakers officially announced that Andrew Bynum suffered severe meniscus wear in his left knee and was out for the season.

Barkley explained on the show: "In the Lakers' series with the Trail Blazers, Andrew Bynum encountered a large number of Zhang Jun's confrontation attacks, and excessively consumed his energy while protecting the rim."

"There are indeed traces of his injury this time, but without Bynum as an inside pillar, the Lakers may not be able to compete with the Celtics."

June 10th.

The Lakers won a difficult game at home, 87:81.

Kobe's offense upgraded again, shooting 12 of 20 from the field, 11 of 18 free throws, and scored 36 points, 7 rebounds, and 1 assist.

At this time, Kobe had determined that passing the ball could not help the team win the game. He began to perform heroic performances in personal offense. It was precisely because of this game that the Celtics definitely started to double or even triple-team Kobe. ...

Zhang Jun turned off the TV and took a long breath, already anticipating the outcome of the finals.

Regardless of whether Kobe can win the Celtics alone, he lost two games to the Celtics when he had Bynum. Their strength this season is obviously weaker than the opponent.

The Celtics' Big Three are indeed worthy of being the strongest team in the league.

"Hey, hey, hey, it's time for us to leave. Isn't it already this time that you still want to cheat?!"

"Get up quickly!"

Xia He lifted Zhang Jun's quilt, completely ignoring that the other man was only wearing underpants at this time, and directly pulled him to get dressed.

Regardless of Zhang Jun's feelings, Xia He randomly picked up two pieces of clothing and put them on Zhang Jun.

"If you don't leave, you will be late. The plane will not wait a few more minutes just because you are Zhang Jun, nor will you be as late as you want just because you are handsome."

Zhang Jun looked at Xia He who was going crazy because he wanted to go out and play. He simply spread his hands and let the other party play with him.

"Come on, you bastard."

Zhang Jun originally wanted Yin Lisabai to go with him, but this guy said that he was much happier with his neighbors than with this group of young people.

Zhang Jun has never quite understood why the fun-loving Americans could not bear to stay at home, even if they moved into a more comfortable villa.

If Zhang Jun remembers it well, no matter how poor their family was, Elizabeth Yin never thought about moving. This was completely different from those families in the slums.

Zhang Jun even felt that Yin Lisabai was waiting for someone there, so he didn't want to leave.

Every time Zhang Jun mentioned this matter, Xia He would always interrupt her to other places. He always wondered whether the two mother and daughter were hiding something from him.

Finally, Zhang Jun, Xia He, and Diana went to Hawaii together.

.........

Hawaii is the only archipelago state in the United States, consisting of 132 islands in the central Pacific Ocean. The temperature does not change much throughout the year, and there are no seasons. February and March are the coldest, and August and September are the hottest.

Usually the most comfortable time is around June, which is why most celebrities like to vacation here.

Xia He used Zhang Jun's wallet to buy a private island called Kauna, and truly experienced the feeling of being an island owner. He played with gliders, drove luxury yachts to the sea, and fished. It was very fun!

The most important thing is that Kauna is one of the few islands in Hawaii with waterfalls. This is the place that the three of them like to play the most.

Zhang Jun was lying on the beach chair, watching Xia He and Diana in bikinis playing in the water, and couldn't help but think of Blake Lively.

"Hey, it would be nice if Blake was here."

"It's not fun to go on vacation."

The key is that there are only Zhang Jun, Xia He, and Diana on the entire island, and then there are some service staff. Under normal circumstances, they will not break into the living area of ​​Zhang Jun and the others, but will come to serve when the time comes. Of course, the outermost There is also a private island staffed with security personnel.

Overall, the security is pretty good, but a little too deserted.
