Next was 170 kilograms.
Adding another 20 kilograms on top of 150 kilograms, the difficulty suddenly increased by a level.
Su Yan still pushed with all his might.
It wasn't as easy as before, but he still succeeded, completing six reps before stopping.
Dumbfounded.
The three of them were once again dumbfounded.
"What astonishing strength!"
McGrady exclaimed, "As a Small Forward, his bench press was 120 kilograms, the same as mine before.
That's actually not bad.
After all... I say I'm a Shooting Guard, but I actually have the height of a Small Forward, making me a swingman.
150 kilograms already surpasses most Small Forwards.
170 kilograms is even more exaggerated.
You know... the Orlando Magic's "White Beast" Howard, the eastern conference first Center, his bench press is only 160 kilograms.
Although.
The White Beast's power isn't purely reliant on strength.
But 160 kilograms is already very impressive.
For Su Yan, a Small Forward, to bench press with greater strength than the White Beast, that's truly remarkable!"
"Tsk tsk..."
David Lee couldn't help but click his tongue, "Yan, you weren't holding back, you just weren't using any strength last time."
"Ha~"
Su Yan chuckled.
He also didn't expect the strength bonus from Steel Tendons and Iron Bones Lv1 to be so astonishing.
No wonder upgrading it costs 10 million US dollars; it's definitely worth it.
"Yan, still adding more?!"
Larry Hughes then asked.
"Uh..."
Su Yan thought for a moment, then said, "Let's try adding another 10 kilograms; that should be close to the limit!!!"
180 kilograms.
Su Yan made another attempt, took a deep breath, tensed all his muscles, and pushed upwards with all his might again.
It was strenuous, but he still succeeded.
Su Yan gritted his teeth and pushed 5 times; he could probably do a few more, but he didn't continue.
That's about it.
A 180-kilogram bench press is Su Yan's current bench press limit.
McGrady gave a thumbs up with both hands, exclaiming, "If I remember correctly, LeBron, who is also a Small Forward.
His bench press is 190 kilograms.
Yan is 180 kilograms.
This is amazing!"
"Hahaha, yes."
David Lee laughed and nodded, "Yan's astonishing strength, combined with his deadly accurate Three-point Shot.
He's really going to transform into a Top-tier 3&D Player now."
"It's not that exaggerated!"
Su Yan waved his hand and chuckled, "Defense isn't just about brute force."
Then.
He changed the subject, "Tonight, I'm treating you guys to dinner!!!"
The three of them might genuinely have nothing to do.
But even if they didn't, there was no need to waste time accompanying Su Yan to test his bench press.
So, treating them to a meal was only right.
"Sounds good to me!"
McGrady didn't stand on ceremony.
David Lee also smiled and agreed, "If Yan is treating, then I won't be polite."
Larry Hughes also had no objections.
Su Yan raised his arm, glanced at the time on his Patek Philippe watch, and said, "It's 4 o'clock now, still early.
I was just planning to talk to Stephen Curry's agent.
You guys can do your own thing for an hour.
At five... we'll go to dinner together. If I finish quickly, I'll come find you!"
"No problem."
Larry Hughes agreed.
McGrady also nodded, looking at David Lee and Larry Hughes, "Then let's go to the dance studio across the hall.
The cheerleaders are training.
Although we can't date them, there's no harm in watching to feast our eyes, right?"
"Good!"
David Lee gave a thumbs up.
Su Yan waved, "Then you guys go have fun first, I'll come find you later, I want to feast my eyes too!"
"Alright~"
"They train very late every day, waiting for you, Yan!"
Su Yan left first, and as soon as he exited the gym, thinking of the beautiful, well-figured Misses dancing.
He felt a surge of excitement.
That inexplicable fire within him made him feel even hotter!
"What's going on?!"
Su Yan muttered.
He didn't understand, couldn't figure it out, shook his head, then got a glass of water to drink, adjusting his state of mind.
Immediately after.
He found Jeff Augustine.
"Sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Jeff!"
Su Yan's words carried a hint of apology.
Although Jeff Augustine didn't say anything, Su Yan knew he had been waiting for a full 10 hours.
This sincerity was absolutely beyond words.
"It's nothing."
Augustine didn't mind, smiling, "Should we talk here, or go find a coffee shop outside?!"
Or... grab a bite together tonight?"
"No."
Su Yan waved his hand, pointing to a lounge nearby: "Come on, let's go over there!"
"Okay."
Inside the lounge.
Augustine got straight to the point, sincerely saying, "Su Yan, I currently represent Luol Deng, the seventh overall pick in 2004.
LaMarcus Aldridge, the second overall pick in 2006.
Kevin Love, the fifth overall pick in 2008.
And this year's number one draft pick, the White Beast, Blake Griffin, as well as Stephen Curry, the seventh overall pick.
They aren't overly famous.
But they are lottery picks, somewhat well-known players with good talent.
And while I myself am not as big a name as agents like Rich Paul, I am quite well-known in the agent circle.
They trust me, which is why they chose me, and I am very confident in my business abilities.
I am confident that I can maximize your commercial interests."
Augustine's self-recommendation was very serious and sincere.
And Su Yan also had some understanding of him, having previously given it some thought.
Besides these players, he also represents.
In the future, there will be high-profile players like Kemba Walker, Dennis Schroder, and... Antetokounmpo.
Griffin, Love, Aldridge, and Kemba Walker will all be NBA-level players in the future.
And an all-star player, besides having skill, also needs a certain guarantee of popularity.
In terms of popularity, Augustine should take some credit.
Curry and Antetokounmpo are even MVP + FMVP-level players.
And both happen to be typical inspirational players.
Curry was not highly regarded in the first few years of his career, so much so that after his rookie contract ended, he signed a bargain contract.
Antetokounmpo was the same; in the early stages of his career, he could only be a ball boy on the sidelines for others.
For these types of players.
Their future immense success must primarily be due to their personal efforts, but Augustine certainly also deserves considerable credit.
Because.
Players without strength or popularity in the early stages have limited ability to acquire resources independently and largely rely on their agent's assistance.
Allowing Curry to sign a bargain contract after his rookie deal to develop, and having him bypass Nike and Adidas to sign with Under Armour, which wasn't a big name at the time.
Augustine certainly played a significant role in these wise decisions.
The same logic applies to Antetokounmpo.
That indicates... Augustine is an agent with a highly developed business acumen.
He is also an agent who particularly favors international players.
Holding flowers and waiting for 10 hours without a single complaint of tiredness is truly touching.
Su Yan had to believe that cooperating with such an agent would save a lot of trouble in the future and also bring in a fortune.
More importantly, Su Yan currently needed an agent.
Better to arrive at the right time than early.
Timing is also crucial.
It's like a goddess you could never have pursued.
When she's experiencing setbacks at work, major family changes, feeling desperate and sad, and desperately needs comfort.
You appear before her, comfort her, encourage her, and stay by her side.
Then... you'll most likely win her heart!!!
