Almighty Athlete Chapter 82: 10th in the world

Although the Australian Open game is over, Zhang Guan did not leave Melbourne immediately. He still has some follow-up matters to do, such as holding a special press conference, accepting some interviews with some media, and participating in the official Australian Open competition. After the publicity event, and the sponsor Qiya also prepared a brand promotion event that Zhang Guan was required to attend.

The next morning, Zhang Guan held a special press conference, and then he hurried to a university in Melbourne to attend the opening ceremony of a Confucius Institute. In addition to Zhang Guan, Sister Na also participated in this ceremony.

"Zhang Guan, I haven't had time to congratulate you, our country's first singles Grand Slam champion, you can get a treat after you return!" Sister Na said with a smile.

"Why wait to go back, please do here too!" Zhang Guan also responded with a smile.

"Here? That's too late. I booked a plane for tomorrow night. You know, the center's funding is relatively tight, and the other team members have already returned. If I'm not in the top 16, I'm afraid it would have been long ago. I went back." Sister Na's voice changed, and then said: "Waiting for you to return to China this time, you will definitely receive all kinds of commendations. Then you will definitely be received by the leaders of the Internet Association, or do me a favor."

Zhang Guan knew that Sister Na had a straight character, so she said, "Sister Na just said it, no politeness."

"I want you to help us mention the solo thing." Sister Na said.

"Originally this thing." Zhang Guan nodded and agreed immediately: "No problem! But next year is the Olympics. If you guys really want to fly solo, I'm afraid it will be after the Olympics!"

"If this thing can really be done after the Olympics, then I’m thankful! I have waited for so many years, it’s not too bad for this moment!" Sister Na continued: "You are not a tennis system There are some things that you have cultivated here that you definitely don’t know. At the 2002 Busan Asian Games, our tennis event was defeated across the board, and many problems were exposed at the time. At that time, Japan, South Korea and even Thailand, Southeast Asian countries, tennis It’s already professional, and we’re still building cars behind closed doors. I remember that I couldn’t play 10 games a year at the time.”

"Only 10 stations, so few?" Zhang Guan frowned, and there were really few miserable tennis events in 10 games. For example, athletes such as Federer or Nadal participate in about 15 to 20 races a year, which is a relatively normal number, and "model" Davydenko can play more than 30 races a year.

Just listen to Sister Na and then say: "At that time I retired in one breath. You also know that tennis is a highly professional sport, you can only participate in more games if you want to improve the level, but now this This kind of management mode, we can't participate in a few games a year, how can we improve our level."

Zhang Guan nodded and said that professional tennis was originally a very money-burning sport. The world was flying around to play games, and the transportation expenses alone were a lot of money.

"Oh, your situation is different from ours. Do you want to hand in the bonus this time?" Sister Na turned and asked.

Zhang Guan thought about it and said, "I am still ready to turn in. Although I am not an athlete trained in the system, I have to make a contribution to the development of tennis."

"Then you may have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars." Sister Na continued: "Our words are to pay 65%. 30% is the Net Association Sports Development Fund; 10% is for China Full Care. The sports foundation's security fund; 25% is for the coaches. Speaking of which, I am more profitable. My coach is your brother Jiang, and the water is not out of the field!"

"That's quite a lot! If you go solo in the future, you will lose money if you pay so much." Zhang Guan said with a smile.

"It would be best if I could not pay it!" Sister Na continued exasperatedly: "However, if you can fly solo, I will pay about 10% every year. I can accept it."

Zhang Guan thought about it carefully. In the future, after the gold flower solo flight, the bonus will be paid in proportion of 8%, but the commercial development income, that is, the advertising endorsement income, needs to be paid in accordance with 12%.

"In the future worth of Sister Na, millions of bonuses are nothing. The endorsement of hundreds of millions of advertisements is the big head. 8% of millions and 12% of hundreds of millions are incomparable. Fortunately, the tennis center is also smart enough." Zhang Guan thought with a smile. Wife, the agreement is invalid
