According to relevant reports, Jeremy Lin, a Chinese-American NBA player, has completed the contract with Beijing Shougang , with an annual salary of US$3 million, which is about 20 million yuan.
However, this parents are Chinese-American faces who immigrated to the United States from Taiwan. In the new CBA season, they can only play as foreign players!
It should not be an exaggeration to say that Jeremy Lin can be regarded as the "bigest foreign aid star" in the CBA!
One of them, Jeremy Lin has played for many NBA teams such as Knicks , Rockets , Lakers , Hornets , Nets, Hawks, Raptors , and his performance was amazing.
Back then, the " Lin Crazy " he launched in the Knicks swept the NBA league and is well known in the Chinese world.
Like last season, Jeremy Lin was injured and went downhill, and he still joined the Raptors halfway, and won the NBA championship with the team - although he was suspected of "playing soy sauce". But if this was not the case, it would be difficult for him to come to the CBA.
Second, as a Chinese face in the NBA, it can be said that in China, no one can stand out in fame except , Yao Ming and . Therefore, Jeremy Lin came to China and had a huge influence - not only on the court, but also outside the court. I believe that CBA will set off a new " forest whirlwind ".
Third, Jeremy Lin’s data in the NBA can be said to be the brightest among Chinese people - Yao Ming also seems to be difficult to match. Of course, the two are not the same.
From Jeremy Lin’s salary, we can also see the full Leopard: In 2012, the Rockets gave him a three-year contract of $25.1 million, with an annual salary of $8.37 million. In 2016, the Nets gave him a three-year, 36 million contract, and his annual salary soared to $12 million.
Fourth, people may ask: In this way, if it is a healthy Jeremy Lin, Shougang's annual salary of $3 million will not have a big advantage? ——In fact, the key is: Lin Fengmao’s physical health.
But why did Jeremy Lin be willing to come to CBA? At the age of 31, it can be said that he is in the golden period. If he is healthy, there will be no problem in establishing himself in the NBA, but he is easily injured, which leads to him being "abandoned by the NBA". Jeremy Lin had cried for this before.
In this case, Jeremy Lin came to China out of helplessness. Although the annual salary of US$3 million is not too much for him, you should know that Jeremy Lin also signed a contract with a sports brand in China. If he comes to the CBA, more Chinese brand sponsorships will also flock to him. I believe that his income will definitely rise sharply. How can this 3 million US dollars cover it?
Since Jeremy Lin has come to China and is close to us, people may remember that he once expressed a wish like this:
"I will consider it if they invite me to join the Chinese men's basketball team. I have been with Guo Ailun , Zhai Xiaochuan , and Ding Yanyuhang , but the time is not very long. Of course, I have also communicated with Zhou Qi , and there are still many things to consider. But what I am sure is that if the Basketball Association sends an invitation to me, I will definitely consider it, but there is no confirmation yet."
Now, Jeremy Lin is close to me. Will the Chinese men's basketball team send an invitation to include Lin Crazy under the Chinese men's basketball team?
The results of the Chinese men's basketball team are obviously not as bad as national football team , but in Asia, they have no advantages - especially for the Olympics, and to learn from the open attitude of Chinese football, Jeremy Lin, who has Chinese ancestry, should have no resistance in public opinion.
However, I don’t know if Yao Ming and the Chinese Basketball Association have such ideas now - and once Jeremy Lin is willing to give up his American nationality and maintain a healthy body, after he helps the national basketball team, the level of the Chinese men’s basketball team will definitely rise to a higher level!
