NBA superstar (and Samsung spokesman) LeBron James nets $30 million
from Apple’s acquisition of Beats
LBJ从苹果收购案赚了3000万美元
Even though his team is down a game in the NBA Championship series against
the San Antonio Spurs, athlete LeBron James does have something new to smile
about. As part of Apple’s $3 billion acquisition of Beats Electronics and
Beats Music, James is due to net a profit of $30 million:
虽然他的球队被马刺电爆了，詹姆斯从苹果收购案净赚了三千万美元（十亿台币）
In a recent example, while James was leading the Heat to a victory over
the Indiana Pacers in the Eastern Conference finals, sources say the
29-year-old was finalizing what is believed to be the biggest equity cash
payout for a professional athlete in history as part of Apple’s recent
$3 billion purchase of Beats Electronics. Sources briefed on the situation
say James realized a profit of more than $30 million in cash and stock in
the Beats sale after he had struck a deal to get a small stake in the
company at its inception in 2008 in exchange for promoting its
high-end headphones.
詹姆斯获得职业运动史上最高的一次性现金收益。其收益来自于2008年答应为beat
代言时所获得的股票
This $30 million comes from James’ stake in Beats, which he acquired
in 2008 as part of him promoting the Beats line of headphones (as seen
in the above image with Dr. Dre). Today’s report comes in light of the
Miami Heat seeking to add superstar Carmelo Anthony to its roster
during this upcoming NBA offseason. As part of signing Anthony, James
would need to take a salary cut, and James is looking at new off-the-court
business initiatives (like the Apple/Beats deal) to make up for that lost
income.
热火季后准备追逐安东尼组四巨头。詹姆斯必须要被迫减薪，所以他现在正在寻找
其它的业外收入（如苹果beat收购案）来补足他失去的薪水
According to ESPN, this payout results in the biggest payout of its kind
for an athlete.
这是史上对单一运动员的最大现金支付
It is unclear if James will continue to work with Beats following the
closing of the Apple acquisition. James is well-known to be the top
spokesperson for Apple’s main rival, Samsung. This is not Apple’s
first connection to a top NBA player. A couple of weeks ago, we broke
the news about a meeting between LA Lakers guard Kobe Bryant and Apple
design chief Jony Ive at Apple’s Cupertino campus. It is unclear what
the Bryant/Ive meeting was in regard to, but we speculate that perhaps
Apple is lining up some sports sponsorship partnerships for its
upcoming push into the health and fitness arena.
身为三星的主要代言人，目前不清楚詹姆斯是否会继续和beat合作。但这并不是
苹果第一次和NBA球星合作。几个星期前，苹果神主牌首席设计师艾夫和kobe见面。
目前不清楚艾夫和kobe见面的目的，很有可能是为了将来iOS 8中的健身功能做推广

某家之前用三亿美元买下beat的公司表示：
哼～当初我不卖的话净赚十二亿呢！三千万算啥！
