Chapter 512: Chapter 222 Su Wan’s Three-Year Plan, and Kobe Did It Too_3

When the Nike representative said this, his eyes gleamed with excitement. He suddenly thought that Su Wan renewing his contract with the Pacers was a good thing, as it would make it a natural progression for him to leave the Pacers once the contract ended.

Moreover...

Ending his rookie contract and leaving Indiana felt a bit too hasty, too utilitarian.

Such an image wasn’t befitting Su Wan’s swagger.

The path that Su Wan was following was that of Michael Jordan and Larry Bird, which naturally required a bit more swagger.

What’s more important:

The Pacers’ salary cap was already exceptionally tight.

After renewing Su Wan’s big contract, for the following years, they would have to shoulder a considerable luxury tax. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com

The players whose contracts expired during this period would likely have a hard time renewing...

And here Su Wan was, sacrificing his own time to overtake Michael Jordan, continuing to stay in Indiana, while the Pacers’ management didn’t think to strengthen the team – not even able to maintain the roster.

This kind of incident had happened once already.

If it happened a second time, the fans wouldn’t forgive them!

By then, there’s a good chance that signs calling for Su Wan to leave the Pacers, claiming that Indiana didn’t deserve a player like him, would appear in the stands.

Even if they didn’t at that time...

With the public opinion already formed, Nike could find a way to make those signs appear in the stands.

Did you really think it’s a coincidence that the year the "Three Giants" of the Heat Team, after winning "two consecutive championships," lost the finals, a fan asking for LeBron to go back to Cleveland appeared by the court?

That would be too much of a coincidence!

"How long do you think it would take to form such public opinion?" Su Wan asked.

Based on experience, the Nike representative estimated: "2 years?"

Su Wan nodded, which was about the same as the time he planned to stay in Indiana. He looked at Tyrone, "Then get ready to contact Larry Bird; we’ll sign a 2+1 contract when the time comes!"

Just in time for the summer of 2010.

There’s no need to talk about how exciting that summer was!

And after that summer, the League would enter a new era.

This was also the last reason Su Wan wanted to stay:

Going to a new team, he had no clear idea what the next two years would be like, but it was different with the Pacers; he knew the ceiling of this team with him on it...

He wanted to face off against the "Three Giants" of the Celtics and exact his revenge; also dropping by the finals to shake hands with the "Supermodel Lakers" that hadn’t existed in his era.

Only the mindset of the strong keeps getting stronger could make him more valiant in battle!

He didn’t want to be a mere onlooker in the final song of the 00s era.

Whether it’s the so-called "aging Three Giants" or Kobe, who had won the most championships in the 00s, wait for me!

Following these reasons, and then came the so-called factors for the fans, for Indiana, and so on.

After planning his schedule, Su Wan raised his juice glass, "Come on you two, to the success of this three-year plan, cheers!"

Having settled the plans for the next three years, Su Wan entered vacation mode.

He finally realized the benefits of early fishing.

Not to mention anything else, the first thing...

He never thought the offseason could be so long!

In the past, after the finals and the "champion parade," it was already late June. He had to attend the "draft," and then there were only two and a half months left of the offseason, and he still had to play international games and train. He barely had time to relax.

Now it was different; he went to New York to shoot a promotional poster for the new Nike sneakers and took the opportunity to have an in-depth exchange with Ivanka. Then he watched a tennis open with Sharapova, and it was only June 10th by the time he got back to Indiana.

Gu Hara sent him a Twitter DM telling him that she had successfully joined KARA and was about to debut.

Looking at Gu Hara’s DM reporting her life milestones, Su Wan suddenly felt like he was playing a text version of "The Sims" and had an idea: what if he started a gaming company for fun?

Not the kind that requires burning money to create a blockbuster.

But casual games like Lamb Sheep, Jump, or web games like Plants vs. Zombies.

The former got popular quickly, faded fast, but you can make a quick buck.

The author who originally developed Lamb Sheep reportedly made enough from game ads in a month to buy a house in Hangzhou.

Plants vs. Zombies goes without saying, especially those modified extreme versions, Su Wan wasn’t sure if those counted as piracy, but they were outrageously exaggerated and great for unwinding.

There were also games like Werewolf Killing and Duck Duck Killing...

All simple to develop, yet trendy and sensational for a time.

Just these little games could make Su Wan a hefty sum.

Then he could use that money to develop "Dark Myth: Wukong" ahead of time, where Su Wan wanted to add a secret stick that, when obtained, would knock any boss out in one hit. The thought alone was satisfying!

The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed, and Su Wan immediately had Tyrone start assembling a team. He had the name all figured out, calling it "Gaming Unscientific," starting with games as simple as Lamb Sheep.

Of course, assembling a team was a long-term project, and Su Wan wasn’t in a rush. If Tyrone could get a team together before the new season, that would be good enough.

During this time, the NBA finals had already begun.

Before the Celtics from the Eastern Conference entered the finals, the Lakers from the Western had already eliminated the Mavericks, advancing to the final showdown.
