Chapter 370 Sincerity from James Dolan
After playing six preseason games, it is October 10nd, and He Zhongqiu will also return to the United States with the team to prepare for the regular season.

On the evening of the 22nd, He Zhongqiu contacted Wu Jing, who was filming Wolf Warrior, and asked about the filming situation. Wu Jing said it was going smoothly.

In addition, Wu Jing also told him a good news that Wang Baoqiang and Jiang Luxia were really together.

He Zhongqiu said happily: "Okay, this is good news. Baoqiang is too honest. Find more opportunities for him in the future, as well as Jiang Luxia."

He added, "By the way, Brother Jing, what about you? Don't delay any longer. If you delay any longer, you will be old and can only pick up what others have left."

"What?"

Wu Jing replied unhappily, and then hesitated: "I still have someone in the heart. I will contact her when I am ready to return to Yanjing."

He Zhongqiu urged, "Hurry up, let's start after we finish filming this movie. Brother Jing, I'm such a grown man, and I'm worrying about this kind of thing for you, why don't you be more proactive?"

"Aren't we filming a movie?" Wu Jing said.

"Okay, if you can get the one you like, I will offer you $2 million for Guns N' Dragon 700, not including the salary for the martial arts director and the lead actor," said He Zhongqiu.

"Then it's a deal." Wu Jing said with a smile.

A salary of 500 to 700 million US dollars is considered a third-tier star in Hollywood, 1000 million US dollars is second-tier, 1500 million is quasi-first-tier, and a true first-tier star now makes at least 2000 million US dollars, and that may even include box office or profit sharing.

Considering Wu Jing's current status in Hollywood, $700 million is a very good salary. In fact, $500 million is already good.

The official training camp starts on the 24th and lasts for a week. The new season starts on October 10st, and the Knicks' opening game is also on the 31st.

On October 10, He Zhongqiu went to Hongluo Mountain in the morning to bid farewell to his father, and then went to the Zhengxie office to submit four proposals.

Director Liu in the office flipped through his proposal and saw the three copies above. He couldn't help but sigh:
"Zhongqiu, that is you, there are too many people supporting you. If it were someone else, they would have been scolded as depressed and their future would have been ruined."

"I don't care about those things." He Zhongqiu waved his hand.

When Director Liu saw the fourth proposal, he smiled bitterly and said, "You are targeting the education sector again."

"You said that we should let Japan review our textbooks, right?" He Zhongqiu stared at Director Liu and asked.

Director Liu sighed and did not answer the question. He only said, "There are some things that can't be helped during the Mid-Autumn Festival."

He Zhongqiu said unhappily, "If they come out and scold me again for my four proposals in 07, I'm sorry. I'm not a person without a mouth, and I'm not a person without a temper. I also have some influence, so it's just right for us to confront each other."

Director Liu's face suddenly became serious, because he thought of He Zhongqiu's influence. He is the most influential and well-known Chinese in the world, and this is no joke.

Once we confront those people head-on, it will definitely have a huge social impact in the country and trigger huge social public opinion.

The support for He Zhongqiu comes from the huge social influence, while the opposing force comes from the elite class.

He didn't know what the outcome would be, who would win or lose.

But no matter what, even if He Zhongqiu loses in the end, this kind of collision is good, positive, and can make people alert.

He thought about it and pretended not to hear what He Zhongqiu said.

At noon, He Zhongqiu said goodbye to Yang Xue and boarded the special plane with the team.

Yang Xue has been pregnant for 140 days, which is exactly halfway through her pregnancy. Because she is pregnant with twins, her belly is bigger than other pregnant women in the same period.

The release date of White Bone World has been confirmed. It will be released on February 07, 2, which is New Year's Eve. The Forbidden Kingdom will also be released on that day.

After the deal was finalized the day before yesterday, Chenglong called and said helplessly, "Zhongqiu, you are so cruel. When we work together, you have to make up for my losses."

"Haha, Brother Cheng, we tried it last time, and one shot can't fit both of us, so let's forget it." He Zhongqiu said with a smile.

Chenglong shouted, "I know, but I want to invest in your movie. I invested in The Forbidden Kingdom, and I will definitely lose money this time. You can't just rip me off and leave me alone."

He Zhongqiu said, "Okay, okay, let's put it this way. Wu Jing's Guns of Legends 2 is about to start filming, with an investment of 500 million US dollars. You go find Ross Lewis, and I'll give you an investment of million US dollars. You can play a cameo role in the movie, without any pay."

"It's a word."

Chenglong agreed without hesitation.

The last time Guns N' Dragons made more money in China than Project Baby. With such a huge investment in the sequel and a brand new style of gun-fight films, the box office is sure to be good.

When this type of movie was first mentioned, he also participated in the discussion and was very interested in this type of gun battle movie. The box office of Guns N' Dragon also gave him confidence.

Before boarding the plane, He Zhongqiu felt a little regretful that he did not receive a call from Boss Liu. It seemed that Jingdong still did not intend to develop its own payment system.

At noon, the Knicks' special plane took off and arrived in New York twelve hours later at noon on the 23rd, US time.

Tang Yan and Bai Bingbing drove to pick him up at the airport, but there was another group of people who came with them. The leader was Ning Xu. There were five of them in total. They were arranged for him by Zhang Qianning. They were affiliated with He’s Security Company and were responsible for his security affairs.

Among these five people, there is one Chinese, and the remaining three include one African American and two European whites.

The business scope of He's Security Company in the United States is limited to providing security services to private individuals. It cannot engage in high-end businesses such as military consulting, military training, logistics support, combat support, etc. It is a castrated private security company.

But legal gun ownership is allowed, after all, they pay taxes to the United States, so all five of them have guns and are equipped with bulletproof vests.

Ning Xu and five others had just arrived from an island in the Caribbean, and the base of He’s Security Company was already under construction.

After not being together for several months, He Zhongqiu returned home and swam with the two daughters for the entire afternoon.

"Honey, Sister Xue is going to give birth in a few months. Is it my turn now?" Tang Yan asked.

"What do you mean it's your turn?" He Zhongqiu was stunned.

"It's my turn to get pregnant. I'm the second oldest." Tang Yan said confidently.

"You make a lot of sense."

He Zhongqiu had no intention of rejecting Tang Yan's request. He just wanted to have more children.

"Honey, I want one too." Bai Bingbing said tenderly.

"Bai Laosi, we are both pregnant. What should we do if my husband wants to swim? You should wait." Tang Yan said hurriedly.

"I'm already 20 years old, not young anymore." Bai Bingbing said. "Okay, okay..."

He Zhongqiu quickly stopped him and said, "Let's talk about it after Sister Xue gives birth."

China, at noon on the 24th, Yang Xue had just finished lunch at Qiuxue Garden when she received a call from the Group Security Department.

The security personnel of He Group Corporation and several of its domestic subsidiaries all come from their own security companies, which means they hire security personnel from He Security Company to be responsible for security work.

Therefore, the security department of the group company is actually under the president's office and is only responsible for managing the security personnel sent by the security company. The security department is directly led by her.

"Boss Yang, a middle-aged couple came to the group company and said..."

"What is it?"

"They said they were Director He's parents."

"As we did before, don't ask any questions and just drive them away. If they cause trouble, call the police."

"Yes, Mr. Yang."

Yang Xue put down her phone and shook her head helplessly.

Assistant Zhou Qing asked, "Boss Yang, what's going on?"

"It's okay, someone is here to recognize our relatives." Yang Xue said.

"Mr. He?" Zhou Qing said.

Yang Xue nodded and didn't talk about this topic anymore.

In recent years, many people have come to her house to recognize their relatives. This time is the 78th time. She never asks whether it is true or not, and she doesn't need to notify Sanjin. She just handles it this way.

Sanjin hated his biological parents who abandoned him so much that he would never recognize them even if his real parents came to find him.

She also discussed this issue with Sanjin, and she still remembers very clearly what Sanjin said at that time.

"I don't care why they abandoned me. From the moment they abandoned me and didn't care whether I lived or died, I had nothing to do with them anymore.

If my father hadn't saved me, I would have frozen to death at the foot of Hongluo Mountain. My last name is He now, and I have only had one father in my life."

With He Zhongqiu's current social status, no one can force him to recognize his relatives as long as he disagrees, and Yang Xue is not worried about this at all.

On the 24th, the official training camp started.

Before 9 o'clock in the morning, He Zhongqiu arrived at the training base. James Dolan was waiting for him. After calling him to his office, he gave him two endorsement contracts.

One is an endorsement contract with an American cable TV company for five years and $75 million.

One is an endorsement contract with Madison Square Garden, also for five years and $75 million.

The Knicks have completed three consecutive championships, plus the previous two championships, now it is five championships. The Knicks have become a true powerhouse in the NBA league, a powerhouse with both wealth and background.

Wolverine is the symbol of the Knicks and also the Knicks' money-making machine. In order to keep him, these two contracts are his sincerity.

Compared to the money the Knicks made from the Wolverines, these two contracts are nothing.

Just during the offseason, the Knicks and ESPN signed a new regional broadcasting contract for $15 billion over 30 years, with regional broadcasting rights revenue of $ million per year.

Just based on this contract, the Knicks' market value will skyrocket, and his and his family's wealth will also skyrocket.

He Zhongqiu did not accept the contract, but said: "James, I can't guarantee that I can play in the Knicks for another five years."

James Dolan was stunned, and quickly asked: "So Wolverine, what are your thoughts now, are you completely going to develop into track and field?"

He Zhongqiu shook his head and said, "If I win consecutive championships, I will definitely play until 08, but I can't guarantee it after that."

At this point, he said somewhat helplessly: “Loshua Daley reminded me before that it is difficult to defend the title after the dynasty unless you have absolute strength.

This is because if a team that has won three consecutive championships does not have a major lineup change, it will be difficult for the original three-champion members to pursue the championship as before, and they will lose their enterprising spirit.

In fact, the reason why I said that if we win consecutive championships, there is no guarantee that we will continue to play after 08 is because of this reason.

I mean, I'm just like them, because if we win five straight championships, even I would probably lose the pursuit of the championship.

Because by that time, I might not feel the excitement of pursuing the championship anymore. Without a strong opponent, it would not be meaningful to easily complete consecutive championships.

In fact, our current three consecutive championships, whether the opponent is the Lakers, Spurs or Mavericks, have not had any impact on us in the finals, which is a bit boring. "

His words stunned James Dolan.

It was so difficult for the Knicks to win a championship in the past. Ewing did not win a championship in 16 seasons. When did they lose their pursuit of the championship? They think the opponent is too weak. Is this the Wolverine's patent?
At this point, He Zhongqiu added: "However, the combination of Yao Min and Kobe gives me some hope."

"Oh?"

He Zhongqiu said cautiously: "Yao Min is practicing three-point shooting. With his shooting touch, I believe he can master it. Once he masters the three-point shooting, he will be the most difficult person to defend on the perimeter, and the Lakers will become very difficult to deal with."

Hearing these words, James Dolan actually felt a sense of joy. He seemed to understand what He Zhongqiu had just said: winning the championship without a strong opponent is meaningless.

He quickly said, "Wolverine, isn't this just perfect? ​​You wish for a super strong opponent, and here they appear."

He Zhongqiu nodded and said, "So I just had an idea. If there is a team that can interrupt our championship, I will continue to play."

"Sign it, Wolverine. Even if you retire now, these two contracts are yours." James Dolan said as he stuffed the two contracts into He Zhongqiu's hands.

He added: "In fact, the Knicks have already earned $1.5 million from you. That's a $30 billion contract, $2 million a year. Now that you're retiring, the regional broadcasting contract has to be fulfilled, and ESPN has to pay you."

"Haha..." He Zhongqiu laughed.

The $1.5 million was just enough for Sister Xue to help him start a sporting goods company.
