"465000", with a row of numbers written on black and white paper, followed by "zero" is not as much as imagined, but it is still dazzling.

Each year's contract salary is $ 465,000, and the contract period is two years; in addition to this, there are bonuses, and there is no upper limit of $ 20,000 for each game won.

With an annual salary of 465,000, this still does not include bonuses and benefits. What level is this?

To give a simple example, the average annual salary of senior software engineers in Silicon Valley is 150,000 US dollars, which is higher than the average in the United States; but behind the seemingly high salary, it is super high taxes-about 35 percent, There is also a very high cost of living-the average cost of living in Silicon Valley is 60,000 US dollars per year.

In other words, high wages are not necessarily sufficient to support a high standard of living, or even barely maintain the basic level.

Lu Zhengzheng and Jiang Youning are both skilled immigrants. The annual salary of both couples is very good, but they live in this area of ​​San Francisco. Even if the Haight-Ashbury area is not the most expensive living area, they can still be regarded as ordinary. A middle-class family.

Now, Lu Ke ’s annual salary is more than the sum of the two parents ’salary! This is really incredible!

Of course, as a rookie, Lu Ke's contract is nothing in the league.

This year's No. 1 pick, Cam Newton, signed a four-year, 22-million-dollar contract, which is the real sky-high price; and it is the total amount of protection. The simple understanding is that as long as he completes the signature, then Twenty-two million came into the pocket—there were no rules on the number of games played, no rules on daily training, no rules on injuries, and no rules.

The top pick is not only beautiful, but also makes money. By comparison, Lu Ke's contract is just a bit of a cow.

According to the regulations of the league, unsuccessful rookies must sign a contract for at least two years. The minimum guaranteed salary is $ 465,000. This is also to protect the interests of rookies. Only free agents who have left the rookie can sign a one-year contract.

In other words, the 49ers and Lu Ke signed a minimum guarantee contract-this is what Jonas called "a reasonable number"; although the contract was signed, Lu Ke was hired as the team's third quarterback, However, 49 people still hold a skeptical attitude towards Lu Ke's prospects and future, and did not even hold much hope. They made it clear that they are emergency players for transition.

Losing the rookie, this is the most authentic look.

If there is no alliance regulation, as the first Chinese quarterback to be officially signed in history, I am afraid that the salary will be lower, just as Hollywood actresses will always pay less than male actors, Asian actors will always be lower than white actors. . In the United States, the melting pot of immigrants, this is the norm in society.

However, in 13 years, 13 years of running and struggling, defeated the shackles of physical talent, broke the barrier of racial discrimination, surpassed the barriers of countless geniuses, and finally won a contract as a quarterback. Sure! This is the most precious! Dream, officially set sail!

This black and white text is the best affirmation and the best proof-he did it!

The reality is clearer than ever before, and the excited and excited emotions are surging in the blood, but Lu Ke firmly grasps the fist of his right hand and gradually calms down.

Rugby superstar system, it all comes from it, there is no system, he is still a young man who dreams but will eventually do nothing; now, with the system, everything becomes possible, he will not easily miss , Will not relax easily. With the support and help of the system, Lu Ke firmly believes that the loss of the rookie contract in front of him is just a starting point!

Taking a long breath, Lu Ke raised his head and looked at Jonas, and said seriously, "Is there anything else worth paying attention to for this contract?"

The light under Jonas' eyes flashed slightly.

For most rookies, the salary number is all they care about; but the real old fritters know that there are too many clauses in the contract, which can exploit the long series of zeros on the contract to nothing: For example, during the contract, the number of starts must reach the specified number of games, otherwise the player's salary will be another number. And so on.

In front of this rookie, it is rare to keep a sober and calm, not much, but precious. Jonas couldn't help but think of the rumors about this Chinese quarterback: Von Derrick tested the perfect score. What does this mean for the league?

Thoughts just flashed, Jonas gave a professional smile, "I have already made notes on the parts that are worthy of attention. You can read and read in detail. If you have any questions, email me. Before the formal signing, I Will do my best to complete the answer. "

"Okay. Thank you." Lu Ke didn't talk too much nonsense, he simply extended his right hand neatly and said with a smile, "Happy cooperation."

Jonas nodded gently, "Happy cooperation."

After the interview was over, after watching Jonas leave, Lu Kemu walked to the parking lot inexplicably, and a cold wind blew, and then he recovered and realized his embarrassment: he was still wearing training uniforms, and still no sweat Dry, still holding a towel and helmet, and then holding a draft contract and several business cards.

In the chaos, he completely forgot this matter. Within a short period of time, everything was crowded together, wave after wave, and there was no room for the brain to buffer. After thinking for a while, he could not help shaking his head and smiled bitterly, then took a small jump all the way and walked towards the locker room.

Change training clothes, shower with shower head, change daily clothes, pack up your luggage, and then walk to the parking lot.

The daytime in summer is always exceptionally long. The setting sun has been burning for more than an hour, but it has not completely sunk. The entire sky has been dyed bright orange, translucent and bright, and large greens have gradually been dyed into ink. It outlines a hazy outline and becomes the vein of the city.

Far away, Lu Ke saw his car. It was a Chevrolet pickup truck, navy blue, slightly worn, but the performance was still strong.

This is Lu Ke ’s sixteenth birthday gift, not brand new, but second-hand. The service life at the time of purchase was only three years. He accompanied him from San Francisco to Los Angeles, and accompanied him to trial training throughout the North American continent. , It is not so dazzling car, but it is practical enough and absolutely durable.

At this moment, the navy blue car turned white.

Literally, "white", the entire pickup truck is stacked under a pile of white objects, looks like plastic or foam, stuffs the entire cockpit, fills the entire roof, stuffs After half full, the car body even overflowed, scattered on the ground, everywhere.

Then, three or forty carton boxes were discarded next to them, a mess. It looks like it's a white plastic or foam box.

Lu Ke blinked, looking at his car inconceivably, and quickly walked up. As the distance drew closer, the white objects became more and more like paper pieces, not foam or plastic, but snow white. The pieces of paper are flat and light, and a gust of wind blows, and even a lot of paper rolls up.

But the next second, Lu Ke's footsteps stopped, and he couldn't believe his eyes, and the smile on the corner of his mouth rose. I looked at it again and confirmed my conjecture. I couldn't help but open my mouth and laughed helplessly; inadvertently, I glanced at my eyes, the sense of absurdity became more and more violent, and the smile couldn't stop at all. :

These are not pieces of paper, but *****.

Yes, his pickup truck is piled up in a pile of piles / *****, it looks like there is a party in preparation. Although he did not count them carefully, Lu Ke can be sure that there are at least thirty cartons next to him. So how many sets are there?

This is a difficult problem.

As he stepped forward, Lu Ke became more funny the more he thought, and looked around crying and laughing. This is obviously a prank, and the initiator of the prank is not difficult to guess, "Logan Newman, if you do n’t come out, I can stand here for one night." Standing next to his car door, the objects became more and more Clearly, Lu Ke laughed involuntarily.

There was no response and no sound. The entire parking lot was empty, with only four strange cars parked. Lu Ke was pretty sure that Logan ’s car was not in it—his car was a black SUV, and he was landed every time. Ke and Jay mocked as a nanny car.

Lu Ke was not in a hurry, but stood still, "Logan, you should know that my patience will always be better than you." After finishing speaking, Lu Ke's mind flashed brightly, and he added again, "Ma Kus Lynch, if you come out now, maybe I would consider paying half the fee to pay for your prank. "

"He, it's him!" Logan ran out first, and the two actually hid behind the trash can in the corner of the parking lot, and then saw Marcus jumping up, screaming, "Hey, Hairy monster, this is not cool! This is not cool! How can you betray your teammates? Ah? "

Logan didn't care at all, rushed all the way and rushed over, "Haha, Bambi, how is it, is it a genius masterpiece? This idea is really amazing!" Logan stood beside Lu Ke and looked at it with satisfaction. With their own prank effect.

Marcus ran scoldingly, "Brother, hey, how about showing a little brotherhood?" Then he walked to the other side of Lu Ke, and almost grabbed Lu Ke's right hand with a sudden thunder. Gen also seized the opportunity to grab Lu Ke's left hand, the two twisted to land and walked to the door next to the car, pushing hard.

Lu Ke was completely caught off guard. He fell down with an unstable center of gravity, and immediately saw Logan open the door--

Wow la la, la la la, the case full of the cockpit was vented down like a flood, and Lu Ke was drowned in a flash, and Logan's cheerful shouting came from his ear, "Brother, welcome to join 49 people! "
