Wang Yi looked at Tamim with a sincere look and said, "I want to know the real reason behind this."
Tamim did not hide anything and said very sincerely:
"You also know that Saudi Arabia is a small country that started by selling oil. Although we have almost become one of the richest countries in the world because of oil, we have almost nothing except oil."
"And the oil will eventually run out. When the oil runs out, we will become the poorest country in the world."
"So our country is now seeking economic transformation, and the biggest potential for our economic transformation is technology and tourism."
"The development of science and technology takes a certain amount of time, but the transformation of tourism takes a very short time."
At this point Wang Yi already understood: "Do you want to build a training base about me and a theme park about me, and use my influence to attract tourists?"
Tamim nodded: "You are right. Of course, we are not doing this for free. We will pay you."
"As for the remuneration, we can discuss it. We can choose a one-time buyout or a share."
"Our initial offer is a one-time buyout of US$3 billion."
"If it is a share, we will share 2% of the net income with you every year. Of course, if there is no profit, we will still make up US$100 million for you every year."
"In the future, if you win the Olympic championship every year, you will also get 10 million U.S. dollars. If you win the NBA championship, you will also get 10 million U.S. dollars. And all the runners-up will get 5 million U.S. dollars. At the same time, in the NBA, if you play in 60 games every year, you will get 10 million U.S. dollars."
If you average more than 20 points per game, you will receive a reward of $5 million, and if you average more than 30 points, you will receive a reward of $10 million."
Wang Yi nodded.
A team that's even worse is worth more than $2 billion.
But here, if it is said to be 300 million, it means 300 million.
There is also a large garden behind the entire royal palace.
As the saying goes, keep a thin line in life so that we can meet each other easily in the future.
Moreover, Tamim personally promised Wang Yi that he would not impose income tax on him.
"These rewards are too many, and we will write them in the contract details later."
But you can also see how much they value themselves.
Wang Yi mentally estimated the rewards just now. If he could meet the conditions every year, he would earn almost US$300 million every year. Even if he achieved half of it, he would still earn US$150 million every year.
"What incentives?"
It's heartwarming to listen to.
Since others are so generous, I can't push myself too far. After all, you can't buy or sell anything at once. Maybe there will be cooperation in the future.
We also admired their royal family’s private zoo.
Tamim continued: "In this signing, we have additional incentive clauses."
It is said to be a garden, but it is completely a tourist attraction.
"Of course, these are just our preliminary opinions. If you feel they are not enough, we can discuss it further."
Wang Yi nodded: "Okay, I'll ask my assistant Mitchell and my legal team to come over and let's study it together."
Wang Yi's salary in the NBA is said to be 100 million U.S. dollars, but after taxes are deducted, the final salary is just over 50 million U.S. dollars.
The most important thing is that there is no personal income tax on local citizens.
They didn't expect Wang Yi to agree so readily.
This is not an ordinary small yacht that can only accommodate three to five people, but a large luxury yacht.
When Wang Yi heard this, he secretly clicked his tongue in his heart.
Tamim nodded.
Tamim said: "Then I will ask someone to draft the contract. After the contract period is drawn up, you can take a look. If there are no problems, we will officially sign the contract."
"If he averages more than 40 points per game in any season, there will be a reward of US$30 million for that season."
A dozen other members of the royal family also raised their glasses, Wang Yi also raised his glasses, and everyone drank.
Tamim said: "For example, if you win the Basketball World Cup, we will pay you $10 million."
After dinner, King Tamim did not send Wang Yi back, but took Wang Yi to visit their palace.
There are mountains, water, flowers and trees, and there are yachts at the back near the coast.
Of course they cannot rely solely on Wang Yi for their Saudi tourism, but with Wang Yi's current popularity and influence in the world, it is still very promising for them to make Wang Yi a key project in their first phase of investment projects.
Necessary.
Then he raised a glass of red wine and said to Wang Yi: "Then I wish our cooperation a success, and I also wish you win the championship."
"At the same time, if you appear in world-famous magazines such as Sports Illustrated, you will receive a reward of US$2 million every time."
But here in Saudi Arabia, you don’t have to work, you only have your own name on it, and you earn US$100 million every year. It’s not easy to earn this kind of money.
During the tour, Tamim pointed to the yacht and said to Wang Yi: "Wang, it's your first time here, and we don't have much to offer as a gift. We only have a yacht that's barely acceptable, so we'll give you a yacht."
Due to the impact on the U.S. economy during the two years after his retirement, the NBA has not fully recovered yet, so the market value of many NBA teams has dropped.
You must know that Wang Yi’s current salary for working hard for a year is only 100 million US dollars.
Wang Yi has long heard that countries in the Middle East, such as Saudi Arabia and Qatar, are very generous in their actions. Today, when I saw it, they certainly lived up to their reputation.
Seeing Wang Yi agreeing so readily, the Saudi royal family looked at each other with joy on their faces.
This Saudi Arabia is really rich.
Even better teams like the Lakers and New York are worth more than 4 billion US dollars.
So Wang Yi said to Natamim: "Thank you for your respect for me. The buyout is indeed a lot, but I still choose to share it."
Now Saudi Arabia has spent more than 3 billion US dollars just to buy out itself, which is equivalent to supporting a team by itself.
If it is divided, it is not yet known how much 2% of the annual income is, but if it is less than 100 million US dollars, it will be supplemented by 100 million US dollars every year, which is a lot.
Wang Yi quickly wanted to refuse. After all, a yacht is not a small amount of money.
According to his understanding, such a yacht costs at least tens of millions of RMB.
However, Tamim said to Wang Yi first: "Don't refuse me in a hurry. I have something to ask of you."
Wang Yi looked at Tamim: "What's the matter?"
Tamim said to Wang Yi: "I ask you to become the best player in this Basketball World Cup, and at the same time, try your best to do those moves like your overlord dunk. In short, I ask you to become the most popular player."
