"This isn't Atalanta's home stadium, the Eagles' opponent is the referee!"

"There is no darkest, only darker, and in order to sell tickets, the league turns the game into a show!"

"The clash between Pachulia and Garnett was the only highlight, congratulations to the spectators who went to watch the game, you wasted a good time on a date!"

"I'm a Bostonist, but I'm not hopeful of the Celtics advancing right now, I have to replace Rivers, he can't lead the Celtics to the championship!"

……

Public opinion on the Internet is also almost one-sided, and of course, the alliance has always been my own immobility. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

After all these years, are there still fewer controversial games?

For a business league, the NBA is not afraid of controversy, but of being forgotten by fans! Just as the opposite of love is not hate, but forgetting.

Years of hype and operation have made the NBA a routine, and the so-called controversy is only part of their promotional content.

It's just that why does it seem so lively now? It's because of the influence of the Internet, which has spread the communication between fans in a larger dimension of time and space.

David Stern smiled and said after listening to Tan Huimin's ratings report and analysis within the league: "Do the fans need the truth? No, all they need is talk. ”

Tan Huimin responded on the side and said: "That's right, this talk can allow them to spontaneously form a chain of coercion and contempt for non-fans and new fans, I have already given the plan for the next game, do you have anything else to advise?"

Stern smiled, "No need, I fully believe that you and Adam, you can handle it." By the way, when is Kraft Nguyen coming?"

Tan Huimin hurriedly glanced at his watch, and then said respectfully: "At 9 o'clock in the morning, about half an hour away, he will come to visit you in person." ”

David Stern nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very well, I'll meet him here." Mark, do you think there will be an Asian Jordan in the league?"

Tan Huimin said: "As long as he can bring enough influence to the alliance, what does it matter if he is a Martian?"

After speaking, the two alliance leaders looked at each other and smiled.

When there were 15 minutes left at 9 o'clock, Ruan Erniu rang the doorbell of the Hilton Hotel Suite, and Tan Huimin opened the door for Erniu.

"Hello, Mark!" Of course, Erniu knew Tan Huimin, and he also knew Stern and Xiao Hua, but it was the first time they had met in such a private setting.

"Hello, Erniu! I said it, you can call me Lao Tan!" Tan Huimin smiled and shook hands with Erniu.

Then he was led through the door, and Stern was standing in front of the glass window with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance.

Tan Huimin said, "Sir, Kraft is here. ”

Stern turned around with a smile, walked in front of Erniu, and shook hands with Erniu. This is the third time they have shaken hands this season. The first time was in the draft, and the second time was in the All-Star Game, where the two bulls won the AMVP trophy.

Stern said: "Sit down, Kraft, I don't think I've had that much contact with a rookie player, and the last rookie player I talked to a lot was LeBron in '03. ”

Erniu sat down and said with a smile: "It's my honor, but I hope this is not the last time I will meet and shake hands with you this season, and I hope to have the opportunity to shake hands with you again at the award ceremony of the Eastern champion, or even the championship ceremony!"

Stern nodded, "You're much prouder than the Asian players I've influenced, but in the face of your strength, that should be interpreted as confidence." Tell me, Kraft, how do you plan for your future, what kind of player do you want to be?"

"When I first joined the league, I just wanted to be able to establish myself in the team.

Later, I wanted to play a bigger role in the team.

After that, I became the No. 1 rookie of the year candidate and gradually became the leader of the team.

In the second half of the season, with Bibby on board, I had a desire for a championship again.

I now hope that my future will be on par with those legends. ”

Erniu's answer was full of Celestial Empire-style subtlety, but in the end, he still exposed his ambitions. Although compared to the nonsense of the black players, it still lacks a bit of momentum.

In Stern, though, that's the sane way of doing things.

At the very least, LeBron James didn't do what Ruan Erniu is today in his rookie season.

Stern said: "Magic and Big Bird introduced Jeonmi to the NBA, and Jordan's existence made the world know about the NBA. Kraft, tell me, can you surpass these predecessors?"

Ruan Erniu said confidently: "As long as the alliance has this need, I will do my best to do all this." Mr. President, in the age of the Internet, basketball fans around the world may need a new basketball idol. ”

Stern pretended to be serious and said: "The league would have preferred to see the Celtics and Lakers face each other in the Finals, tell me, after you stir up the situation, why do you want to save the league's early investment?"

Erniu spread his hands easily and said: "Of course, this is not something I can undo, but I believe that the Hawks will also bring good ratings to the league as a dark horse when they appear on the stage of the finals." Compared with the script that has been determined for a long time, most audiences are definitely looking forward to the appearance of dark horses. ”

David Stern laughed: "I won't give you a special offer, but from today onwards, you will get the same level of whistle as LeBron." ”

Stern's words are full of depth, and Mr. Chairman will not admit that there is a star whistle, even if this thing exists objectively.

From this moment on, Erniu has officially become the new favorite of the alliance, in the media, he has long been the popular spicy chicken, but in fact, the alliance has been in a tepid state for his promotion.

Stern's words can be regarded as defining Erniu, which is his full affirmation of his achievements and recognition of those achievements since the beginning of a season.

Some tacit things should have been given to Erniu a long time ago, but it's not too late, it should be said that it came at the right time!

As the conversation between the two progressed, Stern was surprised to find that Kraft Nguyen not only played the ball well, but also had his own unique ideas about business operations.

Especially in some Internet promotion methods, it also gave Stern new ideas and visions, and Tan Huimin, who was silent on the side, couldn't help but nod again and again.

Stern couldn't help but say, "Kraft, have you ever thought about coming to work in the league after retiring? Your potential is far more than just being a basketball superstar." ”

Erniu smiled and said, "Mr. President, this is a long time later. Now, I just want to win the championship this season first. ”

……

Stern and Erniu ended this unknown meeting, and Tan Huimin sent Ruan Erniu out of the house instead of Stern, and returned to the suite after a while.

While packing his luggage, Stern said to Tan Huimin: "I won't say more about the specific matters, inform Boston to prepare the Eastern Conference championship trophy, and I will personally present it." ”
