Chapter 22
Chapter 22 Am I really rich?
After the contract was completed, Wang Dachun finally felt a little more at ease. After signing a three-year contract with the team, at least his life was guaranteed for the past three years. The big rock in his heart was finally removed. .
Little Nelson didn’t expect the signing to go so smoothly, and Wang Dachun was rushing to sign. I wanted Wang Dachun to leave audio and video materials when signing, but I didn’t expect Wang Dachun to sign so quickly, so he could only call an assistant and let Wang Dachun hold the contract. Sitting at the desk, holding a pen in his right hand, he sat next to him and took a picture, which was prepared to be published on the Mavericks official website.
Nelson later told Wang Dachun that a press conference will be held for him next week to announce to the media that the Dallas Mavericks have signed with him and will show the jersey and number so that he can choose his jersey number from the existing numbers as soon as possible.
Wang Dachun and Frank walked out of the arena. Wang Dachun looked at Frank who had not spoken for a long time and said:
“Man! What’s wrong with you? You should be happy for me now, I have signed with the team.”
Frank looked at Wang Dachun with the eyes of a grudge and said:
“Do you think it is necessary for me as a manager? I basically didn’t even say a word when signing a contract with you! I think you are ignoring my existence. You should at least reflect my value?
“Frank, don’t be angry with my friend. I didn’t mean to ignore you. The team has already given me what I want. There is no need to fight for other things.” Wang Dachun said disapprovingly.
“The conditions given by the Mavericks are also very general? This contract can be said to be a regular contract for the second-round pick. There is nothing special about it?” Frank didn’t quite understand.
“Okay, okay, let’s not talk about it, we should go find a place to celebrate, I’ll treat!” Wang Dachun said boldly.
“Yeah, you just signed a contract, and you have millions of dollars in revenue. Naturally, you asked for it, and we have known each other for so long. You have never taken the initiative to invite guests!” Frank said disgustingly.
“Isn’t it poor before! Now you and I have signed a contract of more than 2 million yuan, if it is changed to RMB, it will be about 18 million yuan, my God! How should I spend this money?”
At this time, Wang Dachun also realized that he had just signed a contract worth 2.44 million U.S. dollars. If converted into RMB, it would be an astronomical figure for him. He had never thought that he might have so much money before. He didn’t know what to do for a while. What’s the matter?
Frank reminded from the side:
“Wang, you can’t get so much money! Although the signing was 2.44 million U.S. dollars, in fact you didn’t get so much.”
“Why?” Wang Daochun asked puzzledly.
Frank explained:
First of all, you can only get the contract amount for the first year in the first year, and your contract amount for the first year is $540,000. This $540,000 needs to pay the league custody fund, federal taxes, state taxes, and my agent’s employment money. I have roughly calculated it for you. Fortunately, you belong to a Texas basketball player. The highest tax currently is 37. %. This tax rate is the lowest in the United States. The tax rate of each state in the United States is different. Texas is currently the lowest in the United States. Other states have to increase this rate by about 10%. That is to say, these taxes plus my 3% brokerage commission, your salary is only It is 60% of the annual salary on the contract, which is approximately $320,000. ”
“Damn it, it’s too dark.” Wang Dachun cursed directly.
Frank knows some Chinese and knows that he is scolding his mother, but he has become accustomed to it. This is the case in the United States. The tax rate is scary.
Your income is high and taxes are high, and a small contract like Wang Dachun’s $2.44 million is also $1.5 million. If Wang Dachun’s contract is 24 million U.S. dollars, he will have to pay 10 million U.S. dollars in taxes alone. It is estimated that he himself will be heartbroken.
“Damn it, I thought I had become a rich man, and I was cut in half before I got it. It’s really an evil capitalist country!” Wang Dachun said indignantly.
“Well, you just assume that your contract is more than 1 million, not more than 2 million. Would you feel more comfortable in this way?” Frank enlightened.
Hey, I can only comfort myself in this way, but when can I get the money? More than 300,000 is not a decimal, and I can’t get it right now. “Wang Dachun cried so poorly.
“Man! You can’t get the money all at once, so why don’t you pay attention to this information?” Frank said silently.
“Ah, this is cut in half and the money is not given to me. Isn’t the Mavericks so picky? Still owing employees’ wages?” Teacher Wang asked anxiously.
Frank said with just an expression on your face:
The nba league stipulates that the average team player’s salary is paid 24 or 36 times a year, and the Dallas Mavericks are paid 24 times, and his salary is paid on the 15th and 30th of each month. ”
“Isn’t it? Aren’t the NBA teams very rich? How can they still pay in installments?” Wang Dachun asked in surprise.
“No way, this is the league regulations. I just calculated it for you. After tax, you get your salary twice a month. Each time is about 14,000 US dollars, and twice is 28,000 US dollars. Explain in advance that there is also my commission. “Frank said half-jokingly.
“Hey, when I didn’t have money, I didn’t think about how much money there was, but when I had money, I was entangled. I feel a little bit at a loss. More than 20,000 US dollars a month is high enough. If it is in China, it should be a proper gold collar treatment. I should be content, at least I should be able to live a richer life in the future, and I can pay half of my family every month.” Wang Dachun said comfortingly.
“It’s a little too early for you not to draw conclusions like this. In the United States, it is actually very small for an NBA player to have more than 20,000 US dollars a month.” Frank reminded.
“Why do you say that? That’s a lot, right? This is about 200,000 yuan in RMB!” Wang Dachun asked inexplicably.
“Then I ask you! Would you like to live in a more comfortable, spacious place? Well, you don’t change the place where you live. The arena is so far away from where you live. Would you like to buy a car to facilitate your travel? You can’t always wear an NBA player like you do now. You wear sportswear every day. If you are so big, you have to ask a dedicated designer to help you tailor your clothes, right? As an athlete, you must also need a nutritionist to be responsible for you. Provide a healthy diet to supplement your physical needs? Just a few simple food, clothing, housing and transportation. Can you calculate that your money is enough?”
When Wang Chun heard that Frank was holding his finger as the most basic expense, he had nothing to say.
“I haven’t said if you want to improve your abilities, do you want to report to which NBA famous training camp, do you want to ask a trainer to wait for these expenses.” Frank said ruthlessly.
Wang Dachun’s eyes were already listening.
Looking at Wang Dachun’s expression, Frank’s mood at the moment is relaxed, and his heart told you to talk about the contract just now and not listen to my opinion, let you treat me as an air, let you not let me help you earn interest, now regret it!
Frank felt that the blow was almost the same, so he said:
“Okay. Don’t be discouraged. Being an NBA player can’t just look at your contract fees. Don’t you still have me? I will find a way to talk about good endorsements for you, and then you will have money. What I said just now It’s no longer a problem. Of course, the premise is that you have to hit a certain amount of data, otherwise no one will come to you as an endorsement.”
Wang Dachun replied somewhat decadently:
“I thought I was rich, so I don’t have to worry about my future life anymore. Just play with peace of mind. You said that! So I’m still a poor man?”
