One payment was Diop's money: 55 million, around 33 million after taxes.
The other was Nike's dividend.
This year, sales of the Godfather Series had risen noticeably compared to last year.
Tang Tian received 54 million in dividends, a full 12 million more than last year!
Around 32 million of that landed in his account as well.
Those two batches of top-up points, plus the Coca-Cola endorsement fees and the 10 million top-up points he had left over from before.
Tang Tian's total top-up points suddenly exceeded 80 million!
That set another new record for his top-up points!
However, he was still nearly 20 million short of the 100 million top-up points he wanted.
Tang Tian called Carl and, just as he had asked Fagan before, told her to try securing a short-term, high-paying endorsement deal.
But Carl's weakness showed at this point. She did not have any particularly good suggestions.
When it came to experience, she still needed time to build it up.
Still, it was not entirely her fault.
A basketball player's biggest source of income came from shoe endorsements, and Tang Tian had already maximized his value with Nike in that regard.
Unless the Godfather Series could immediately break away and become an independent brand like the Jordan series, but that was obviously not something that could happen overnight.
After trying for several days, Tang Tian had no choice but to accept reality.
He was still 20 million short, but that 20 million was something he could not solve in the short term.
So Plan A was difficult to carry out. He could only choose Plan B and wait until next summer to exchange for a Gold Skill.
Still, 80 million top-up points were enough to exchange for at most one Red Skill and one Orange Skill,
