Chapter 549: Some People Are Happy and Some Are Worried
In the first round of the Western Conference playoffs, the Lakers vs the Trail Blazers ended the dispute with the Lakers sweeping the Trail Blazers 4-0.
The Lakers became the first team to advance to the top 8, waiting for the winner of the Spurs and Mavericks.
Anyone who has watched the Lakers' 4 games has been shocked by the Lakers' powerful offense.
is not only Shen Huan's crazy offense and defense, but in the two games that Shen Huan did not play, the strong dominance shown by Kobe and Iverson was even more feared by countless people.
Many pundits and managers understand that this was an accident.
If it weren't for Shen Huan being sent off, if it weren't for Shen Huan's absence from these two games, Kobe Bryant and Iverson would definitely finish the first round of the game with half a stroke.
At that time, everyone will have a huge wrong assessment of their physical strength and condition.
When the real hard battle came, the two of them showed their fangs again, and few people could resist it.
Fortunately, the unexpected happened, and the two of them were forced to play a game and a half.
Without Shen Huan, they can only play the game to the maximum extent and lead the team to victory.
In the second game, when Shen Huan was sent off at the beginning, the Trailblazers actually had the intention of counterattacking.
But Kobe Bryant and Iverson scored a terrifying 70 points together, directly extinguishing such a fire in the hearts of the Trail Blazers.
With such a powerful state and performance, who would dare to despise them?
Therefore, the Lakers have Shen Huan, Kobe Bryant and Iverson, which are the proper Big Three, and anyone who touches it will be annoyed.
I heard that the coach of the Spurs, Popovich, has been complaining for days, and he is racking his brains for the next round of games.
Not to mention the later games.
With Shen Huan appearing in this fourth game alone, the viewership of TNT and ESPN TV stations has increased significantly, which is higher than the previous three games, and it is the highest rated game that night.
Not to mention Huaguo, almost all basketball fans watched the game through Huaxia TV and Xigua.com.
There is no need to watch the ratings of Huaxia TV, and they don't care very much, but the viewership of Watermelon Network has risen again.
In the fourth game, the highest viewership of Watermelon.com was 78 million, and the average viewership also reached 53 million.
Among the 1.5 billion people in China, there are about 180 million hardcore basketball fans, and the peak number of people who occasionally watch a wonderful basketball game is about 500 million.
Under such a giant as Huaxia TV, it can grab an average viewership of 53 million, and watermelon network is definitely a glory!
What makes the most laughable and unbelievable on the watermelon network is that this highest number of viewers was actually created after Shen Huan left the game, chatting with Miley Sellers and Elizabeth Olsen, and even the moment Kobe Bryant and Iverson joined.
I have to say, the power of gossip is really powerful!
But Jiang Zhenkun didn't care so much, he just smirked.
In just ten days, the attention of Xigua.com has directly increased to the first place among all video websites.
You read that right!
That's the first place!
Even Youyi.com and Shanhai.com, two giants with a combined market value of more than $200 billion, can't suppress the popularity of watermelon.com.
The live broadcast included includes interviews with reporters before and after, including various tidbits and so on.
Watermelon.com is making every effort to make NBA special reports every day.
Therefore, it has gathered a lot of popularity, and all the entertainment and sports news in the past ten days have been on Watermelon.com, and the top three on the hot search list are always Shen Huan, NBA and Watermelon.com.
Only then did people discover that a sporting event was still so touching.
Watermelon.com spent $30 million to buy back the exclusive network broadcast and report, in fact, the cost is back in half.
There are countless brands that come to them to advertise now.
The price offered by Adidas is to package all the games, $20 million in advertising for sporting goods, and you promise to pay immediately.
Nike is not weak, the NBA is their basic plate, and seeing that it has attracted so many Chinese fans, they are of course willing to let the heat heat up again.
Therefore, Nike is offering that until the Western Conference Finals, all the games are packaged, and the footwear products are exclusive, and the price is 15 million US dollars.
The finals must be more than $5 million in advertising, so Nike has to pay more.
In the end, of course, Nike won, and in today's live broadcast of Watermelon.com, tens of millions of fans watched the advertising scene where Nike shoes appeared 3 times.
It's just ball ads, but also clothes, daily necessities, food, and so on.
Watermelon Net is a lot of money, and the benefits are simply immeasurable.
Otherwise, they would not have been able to directly send a powerful film crew to collect news and follow up on their own
The benefits here are immeasurable, not just the hundreds of millions of dollars in net income, but also their valuation.
Previously, because Xigua.com was a second-rate video website, its valuation barely reached $1 billion.
But now it's different, and many large companies offer them directly, generally between $1.3 billion and $1.8 billion.
Meaning, their value has basically increased by $500 million.
As the game progresses, it is not a problem for the market value of Watermelon.com to increase at all.
So Jiang Zhenkun didn't pay attention to them at all, and was going to wait until the finals to talk about it, or if Shen Huan won the championship.
According to the news that broke on the Internet, Jiang Zhenkun has placed an order with Huaguo Gold Corporation and is already customizing basketball-sized gold basketballs.
It means that no matter whether Shen Huan can win the championship or not, with his performance, it is worth Jiang Zhenkun to give him such a golden basketball.
The video site was in an uproar.
Other small video sites hate that they don't have the determination to give it a go, so forget it.
The key is that the two supergiants, Youyi.com and Shanhai.com, didn't expect such a sensational effect, and they really shouldn't be.
Especially the mountain and sea nets.
They used to be known as Shen Huan's biggest supporters, and even many people thought that the eldest princess didn't want the old cow to eat tender grass.
But in the subsequent "Greedy Chu Liuxiang" incident, Shanhaiwang lost a lot of points, which made Teacher Chu Liuxiang very unhappy.
Chu Liuxiang is Lu Xiaofeng's good friend, how can you say that Shen Huan is satisfied with Shanhai.com?
And from this point, it can be seen that there is actually a gap between the two.
Even if Shanhai.com got Chu Liuxiang's TV series and Lu Xiaofeng's variety show one after another, according to rumors in the industry, in fact, these cooperation is already very reluctant.
Originally, many people still didn't believe it.
Now that Shanhai.com didn't follow up Shen Huan's NBA basketball journey in the United States for the first time, everyone believes these statements.
After all, many people remember that more than half a year ago, during the NBA preseason, Shanhaiwang spent a lot of money to buy the live broadcast rights of four games.
Now you haven't done it, what does this mean, don't you still understand?
Many fans of Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang began to scold Shanhaiwang.
Shanhaiwang is really bitter about this, and I can't say it.
They really quoted, but it was too little, and they wanted to stretch it, and they felt that 30 million would definitely not be worth it, so they didn't follow.
After all, they feel that with such a big platform as Huaxia TV that can be watched for free and conveniently, it will broadcast the Lakers' games throughout the whole process, and it makes no sense to spend such a big price to buy it out exclusively.
As a result, I didn't expect that the watermelon network would teach them a good lesson and let them know what is called the maximum fancy report.
As a result, within Shanhai.com, Qi Shangqing, the vice president of operations who was responsible for operating this matter, was dismissed and transferred to the general manager of the company's content department, which is also a normal thing.
This is all for the eldest princess to see that he has followed her for many years, otherwise she would be fired directly.
Don't doubt it, the eldest princess, who is already angry, is so domineering.
