Chapter 1710: Win the God of Basketball!
Tuesday, June 19th.
At night, New York City is lit up and full of life.
There are many cities in the United States that become dark places at night, but this is certainly not the case in New York City's Midtown District.
There are a lot of people here 24 hours a day, even late at night, there are many people who come out to wander around, people from various nightclubs, smoke and drink in various neighborhoods or convenience stores, it is very debauched.
Of course, if you want to be safe, it's best not to go out at night.
New York City at night and New York City during the day are completely different.
Tonight's Madison Garden Plaza in New York is full of guests.
All the bigwigs in the N.BA, as well as a group of bigwigs in the sports world, all sat in the stadium and chatted lively.
Today is the N.BA annual draft meeting, and it is said that players will be selected according to their results from next year, and this year is the last draft to be decided by the old rules.
For Yin Jun, this last old rules draft is not important.
In addition to the few players he wanted to get, the small, middle-aged man with glasses standing in the middle of the stadium and talking to a group of people was also the object of his attention.
This small, middle-aged man is the new president N.BA this year, and his name is David Stern.
Although he has been a vice president for several years, this is his first year on the world stage.
Sometimes many basketball fans are speculating whether it is because David Stern and Jordan both stepped on their own stage in the same year, so David Stern attaches so much importance to Jordan - to some extent, Jordan is David Stern's lucky star.
Throughout Jordan's career, David Stern has had a different view of Jordan.
made all the other head coaches complain, Jordan is a special person, no foul can be used on him, and even when he fouls, the referee often turns a blind eye, completely because of David Stern's preference.
But Jordan didn't live up to David Stern's preference.
Because of his excellent skills and charisma, N.BA has gone from a sport that is not very well-known in the United States to a world-renowned sports league, second only to football in popularity.
It's a great thing, soccer is more attractive than the Olympics, but it's a sport all over the world, N.BA it's just a professional basketball league in the United States, and you have to admire the combination of David Stern and Jordan.
Today's talent show is a live show, but it doesn't have much money, and it's basically free.
Unlike previous cameras, which focused on the talents facing the draft, today's camera swept from time to time to a young Oriental sitting in the second row of the VIP seat in the North District.
By American standards, this Oriental looks very ordinary, but he is relatively young, about 20 years old, and he still looks a little immature.
But no one dared to despise this young man.
Because he is the richest man in the world who has been very hot recently-Yin Jun!
In the past, in the United States, everyone knew that Mr. Jun was a super genius and the number one tycoon in Hollywood.
But now all his assets have been suddenly calculated, and they are actually 39 billion to 40 billion US dollars, far exceeding the more than 20 billion US dollars in assets of Sam Walton, the owner of Wal-Mart, the richest man in the United States.
The United States has always worshiped money and the strong.
It is surprising that a 22-year-old young man has become the richest man in the world from scratch!
As a result, the news media in the United States have carried out a series of reprint reports on Yin Jun's family history, so that almost all Americans know how much industry Yin Jun has and how much money he has.
And his series of successful investments in the mainland have also successfully attracted the attention of many American businessmen.
American businessmen have always been adventurous, and they couldn't help but be moved when they saw that Yin Jun had succeeded, and there were as many as 178 business groups that went to China to inspect the mainland during this period, which was equivalent to half of last year's, which made the people in the mainland very happy.
In fact, it is not only American businessmen, because of Yin Jun's exemplary role, many overseas Chinese tycoons have also begun to pay various attention to the mainland.
After all, everyone is of the same ancestry, there is no reason why Yin Jun can do business, can't we do it?
Come back to the present.
Yin Jun bought the New York Knicks, but changed its name to the New York Kirins team, which is worth only $32 million, which is not worth mentioning at all in Yin Jun's assets.
But unexpectedly, Yin Jun actually appeared here in person, looking very interested in this draft, which is very newsworthy.
To the left of the boy sat the handsome and handsome movie star Johnny Depp, and on the right sat a very beautiful and well-established Oriental beauty.
The TV station in charge of the broadcast is not stupid, they are well-informed, and they quickly figured out the identity of the Oriental beauty.
"Oh, the woman sitting next to the richest man in the world is said to be one of Mr. Yin Jun's girlfriends in Xiangjiang, and was specially sent by him to star in an action movie with Johnny Depp...... With Yin Jun's entry into Disney and United Arts Films, Oriental actors have also appeared in Hollywood one after another, including Miss Bridget Lin, who is said to be Mr. Yin Jun's girlfriend and this year's Oscar actress.
is as famous as Yin Jun's genius, as well as his grace and suaveness, as well as his fatal attraction to women. It is said that he also has a few girlfriends in Xiangjiang, which is also in line with the habits of the Orientals, one of their men can marry several women, I really don't know how they will get along with each other? ”
Not to mention the host's gossip, Yin Jun brought Johnny Depp and Lizhi out this time, naturally for the promotion of their new movie.
Lizhi is still a little uncomfortable with this kind of big scene, especially when she sees the big screen on the scene, she has her own face on it from time to time, and she is a little panicked.
can see that Yin Jun is also treated like this, but he is still talking and laughing with himself and Johnny Depp, and that swaying freely, Li Zhi really felt a burst of admiration and love in his heart.
It's a pity that there are people everywhere here, and there are often business tycoons and sports tycoons who come to greet Yin Jun, and Li Zhi can't talk to Yin Jun about some topics affectionately.
It didn't take long for the N.BA draft to officially begin at 8 o'clock in the evening.
N.BA has not developed yet, and the draft naturally does not have as many tricks as it will be in the future.
After David Stern spoke for a while, the host announced the start of the draft.
The first person to be drafted is naturally the Houston Rockets, and the first person they selected is this year's champion.
The moment the note was handed over, the TV camera turned to the big black man sitting next to him - Olajuwon.
Sure enough, David Stern took the note and announced, "This year's top pick is Olajuwon from the University of Houston! Congratulations to him for becoming the most talked-about rookie this year!"
Olajuwon stood up with a smile, but stood up on the stage a little unfazed, and after shaking hands with David Stern, he talked about his draft speech.
There was no surprise to anyone about this result.
After several months of news investigation, everyone knows that the Houston Rockets and Olajuwon have fallen in love and will definitely work together.
Compared to Olajuwon, the choice of second place has made a little waves.
The Portland Trail Blazers, who were supposed to be the second draft pick, announced last month that they had reached a swap agreement with the New York Kirins, trading the second-place draft pick to the New York Kirins.
Nowitzki, who was sitting in the room, also handed over his note at this time.
David Stern took the note, smiled slightly, and raised his head, "The New York Kirin team, the selected is Michael Jordan from the University of North Carolina! Congratulations to Michael Jordan, who has become the second place this year! Congratulations to Mr. Yin Jun of the New York Kirin team, you have chosen a very good player!"
"...... Uproar"
There was a slight commotion among the people present.
There are a lot of rookies who have attracted much attention this year, Jordan is naturally one of them, and many teams want to get him, but no matter how the news digs, I don't know who Jordan is saying to him.
Now that the newly entered New York Kirins team suddenly selected Jordan, will Jordan be happy?
Although in the draft, players are only passively selected, and the team drafts you, you can't refuse, but after coming down, the player's will is also very important.
Players who are extremely uncooperative have the right to put pressure on the team to exchange them for another team.
Twisted melons are not sweet, and usually at the strong request of the players, this exchange also occurs.
With Jordan's popularity, as long as he doesn't want to, he is qualified to do so, and he is not afraid of being hidden.
So people looked to Jordan.
I saw Jordan, who was talking to his University of North Carolina alumni teammate Sam Parkinson just now, stood up with a smile, hugged Sam Parkinson, and waved to everyone as he walked, looking very happy.
Looking at the managers who looked like Jordan in the room, they couldn't help but feel their hearts sinking.
In particular, Klaus, the general manager of the Chicago Bulls, slapped directly on the table despite the TV camera sweeping him, extremely angry.
He can get Jordan if he is the third, who knew that the New York Kirins actually came to cut off the beard?
No wonder when he communicated with Jordan before, he was a little excited at first, and then he didn't give him any more letters, it turned out that he hooked up with them!
Don't think about it, Jordan must have been moved by the money offensive of the world's richest man!
The richest man in the world with $39 billion is like a predator who has entered the pool of N.BA, which is really going to set off stormy waves!!
