Chapter 138: Learn English

When he arrived at the door of the arena, Sun Hao asked Nowitzki to go back to the hotel first.

He waited for a while, Yi Jianlian and his ...... The female classmate came.

The front stand was a little far away and I didn't see it too clearly, but when I got closer to the front, Sun Hao found that it was an American.

And depending on the fashion level of the dress, like a Los Angeles native, in the case of Sierra Leone, the children of a big star may not be known.

"Brother Hao, this is Lucy, my classmate."

"Hello, Sun Hao."

Sun Hao opened his mouth to say hello, and he almost called his younger siblings.

"Yi often tells me about you, you play very well."

Lucy is quite a good talker.

It's this "often" ......

Well, Sun Hao suddenly felt that he had really lost completely in terms of women.

Yi Jianlian is deeply hidden.

"Let's talk, I'll go back first."

After chatting for a while, Lucy waved goodbye to them.

When the person left, Sun Hao couldn't help but pat Yi Jianlian on the shoulder.

"Boy, yes! Silent girlfriends are all talked! ”

Sun Hao was a little angry, not that he was angry about Yi Jianlian having a girlfriend, but that Yi Jianlian didn't tell him about it in advance.

Killing a dog is completely different from tricking a dog into killing it again.

"Girlfriend? Brother Hao, what are you talking about? ”

Yi Jianlian blushed a little when Sun Hao said.

“……”

Also loaded!

Sun Hao pointed in the direction Lucy was walking.

"No, she's not, didn't you tell me to learn English as soon as possible? She also wants to learn Chinese, and then we help each other. ”

When Yi Jianlian said this, every cell in his body seemed to be explaining.

"Oh, learn English!"

Sun Hao had a look of sudden realization.

It's pretty good, too.

Go to the kidneys, not the heart.

……

Sun Hao got the first 30+ in his career, and against Kobe, "Sports Weekly" once again put him on the front page.

Su Qun's "The Limit of Madness Is No Limit", coupled with the left and right pictures of Sun Hao and Kobe, directly detonated domestic fans.

"What Mr. Su said, the four future quarterbacks of the new century: Iverson, Sun Hao, Kobe, and Carter!"

"Sun, the sky is your limit!"

"Don't you say, the sun and the sky, aren't they all together?"

"This nickname Buckley came from, so he seems to be Sun Hei, but in fact he is Sun Chui?"

"6 is 9, it's dark to the depths of natural powder, there's nothing wrong with it!"

"Anyway, I really like Nowitzki too much, he and Sun Hao are one inside and one outside, Dallas double shot, Splash Brothers, it's cool!"

"Have any of you noticed that Nowitzki looks like the silver-horned king in "Journey to the West"?"

"Which Silver Horn King? Why am I not impressed? ”

"Episode 12, the Golden Horn King of the Lotus Cave, the Silver Horn King, the Silver Horn King held a purple gold red gourd and shouted: I called you, do you dare to agree?"

"There is, there is a picture, I'll go, you didn't say I didn't find it, you said I found it really like! No, it's just a person! ”

"Haha, Novitzki, the king of the silver horn, Sun Hao, what is Nash's name? What is Finley called? ”

"Finley has a nickname, shepherd, let's translate, how about calling it a cowherd?"

“?_?”

"As for Nash, he plays very elegantly, you see that he is still passing the ball fast, as fast as the wind, how about being called the son of the wind?"

"Beautiful! Congratulations, you've been accepted into the Dallas authorities and can go to work tomorrow! ”

"Haha, now that the Dallas Big Four have nicknames, it's time to take off!"

"So now, can we start looking forward to the championship?"

……

A day later, the Mavericks traveled to Sacramento to play a game against the Kings.

Their winning streak was also ended here.

Chris Webber, the former disciple of Nelson Sr., blasted down 30 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, 3 steals and 3 blocks, and blew Nowitzki out.

The Kings' Princeton style of play is very mature, which is completely different from the half-finished product of the Barcelona team when Sun Hao was in Europe.

All told, this is the second time the Kings have beaten the Mavericks this season.

It also exposed many weaknesses of the Mavericks, and although they have a good record, the hard power is actually not that strong.

They still have a lot to improve if they want to be a team that has the quality to compete for the championship.

After the game against the Kings, the Mavericks team members prepared to return to Dallas.

However, Sun Hao didn't go back with him, he took the plane to New York directly.

There are two ways for the NBA to receive the Rookie of the Month award, either before the game or by going to the New York League office to pick it up.

The Mavericks have not had a game in the East recently, and the pre-game award is estimated to be very late, so Sun Hao simply flew over and took it himself.

It just so happened that he could go to the New York Stock Exchange and have a look.

The windfall of investing in Google before gave him confidence in investing.

Of course, he doesn't know how to do business, so he doesn't go to see if there are any familiar stocks, and buy a hand or something, just for leisure and entertainment.

……

The NBA is headquartered in Manhattan, New York.

To be exact, inside the "Olympic Tower" building at 645 Fifth Avenue.

When Sun Hao went, he called in advance, and when he arrived at the door, a special staff member came to greet him, and he was an Asian named Tatum.

Stern is very particular about the details of what he does, and some clues can be seen from this.

Winning a trophy is not just a process, but a series of processes.

For example, if you have to wait for Stern to come, then some reporters who are based at the NBA headquarters will come over to take pictures, and even some interviews will be done after taking them.

The whole process is a bit like gathering information.

After all, those who can win the NBA Rookie of the Month are likely to become famous in the future.

At that time, his news was the media and the fans, and it was also the stories in Easley's mouth.

After finishing this series of processes and leaving the NBA headquarters, Sun Hao had time to take a closer look at the trophy.

The trophy is two special diamonds, one high and one low, one wide and one narrow, like two swords.

In the middle, it's a shot he makes when he shoots.

Underneath the styling is the words "Dallas Mavericks" November 2000.

Although the Rookie of the Month is not a big honor, the NBA has put a lot of thought into it.

Putting the trophy into his school bag, Sun Hao then took a taxi to the New York Stock Exchange.

The exchange is in the innermost position on Wall Street, and before going, Sun Hao first went to Broadway next door to take a look at the "Bronze Bull Statue".

This iconic building that represents the image of Wall Street, if you don't really get here, you probably don't know that he is on Broadway next door.

Speaking of which, after entering the NBA, Sun Hao found that he was really about to throw away the hobby of traveling.

Waiting to enter the stock exchange along the narrow street that was extremely inconsistent with his impression, listening to the fact that there were people trading in the winter vacation, Sun Hao had a feeling of entering the vegetable market by mistake.

He wasn't comfortable with it.

This is somewhat inconsistent with the legendary place that made many people rich overnight and made many people bankrupt in an instant.

He listened for a while, but didn't find anything familiar to him, and finally gave up.

He discovers that he really isn't omniscient.

He turned to exit the place, but looked up and saw a familiar man not far away.

Gu Yi.

The guy was crouching around a corner, looking around, like a hunter looking for prey.

Sun Hao withdrew his gaze, and then prepared to leave the exchange.

But at this moment, Gu Yi, who was still squatting in front of him, suddenly jumped up, as if he had finally found the prey he was waiting for, and walked towards Sun Hao quickly.

Sun Hao had just come out of the exchange, and Gu Yi followed up.

"Sun Hao, Sun Hao, it's me, Gu Yi."

Gu Yi was completely out of sight, and ran to Sun Hao's side.

"Which one?"

Although Sun Hao had a good impression of him, the two meetings were such strange occasions, and he didn't want to get in touch too deeply.

"Gu Yi, that day in Richardson, that restaurant in Chinatown, venture capitalist."

Gu Yi spoke concisely, and quickly said all the key points.

"Oh, a little impression, is there something wrong?"

"Have you thought about what I told you that day? I can really help you build a business empire like never before. ”

Gu Yi looked at me and looked at me like the noble person you were destined to meet.

Sun Hao shook his head.

He knew he was crossing over, but he wouldn't be able to meet that when he went out for a meal.

This is not the same concept as the previous Fu Paul and Ganon Baker, those people are because he knows, but Gu Yi, he has not heard of it and cannot hear it.

When you go out, beware of scams, this is what the police uncle said to him the most on TV in his previous life.

"Give me half an hour, let's sit down and have a cup of coffee, you can listen to me first, if not, I won't bother you again."

Sun Hao glanced at him and didn't speak.

"20 minutes."

"10 minutes! 10 minutes is fine! ”

Sun Hao didn't rush to agree, but asked a question first.

"Are you really a venture capitalist?"

Deliberately stunned for a moment, he didn't seem to expect Sun Hao to ask this question suddenly.

Sun Hao was waiting for him to answer.

"No, but I used to be, I didn't do it if I didn't do it well, I'm a stockbroker now."

Gu Yi said and took out his business card from his coat pocket.

This time he really pulled it out.

Sun Hao glanced at it, this identity, coupled with his image when he was squatting on the stock exchange, seemed to be real.

"You say, 'A liar?'

Sun Hao returned the business card to Gu Yi and asked.

Gu Yi was stunned for a moment.

"Gone."

Sun Hao patted him on the shoulder, then turned around and prepared to leave.

"Five minutes, no need to go to coffee, right here, five minutes."

Gu Yi gritted his teeth and said.

Sun Hao turned around and motioned for him to say.

"You now have to preemptively register a company with your name, and then immediately contact the endorser, find the kind of endorsement fee is not very high, but the user group is very large, such as telecommunications, insurance, and all sign short-term kinds, and then use those endorsement fees, acquire a few small companies, raise funds to go public, and then find an industry you like, build your own brand, such as chain restaurants, retail stores, and even travel companies, etc."

"You'd better change teams, like Los Angeles or New York, it's really not okay Chicago, and you know that there aren't many Chinese in Dallas, and it's hard for you to get local endorsements locally, which is why so many players want to go to Los Angeles."

……

In five minutes, Gu Yi didn't say much, and the speed of speech was not very fast.

It can be seen that although the time is very tight, he is picking and talking about the key points.

"I know you probably don't need it right now because you're going to have a lot of commercial contracts and probably more in the future, but what I've just said will allow you to seamlessly transition into the business model after you retire, and you can start enjoying life from the first second after you retire."

After he finished speaking, seeing that Sun Hao did not respond, he then opened his mouth and added.

Sun Hao reached out and rubbed his nose.

To be honest, what Gu Yi said, although it sounds like there are many flaws in the details, there is nothing wrong with the general direction.

There is a saying that opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared, and Gu Yi has prepared a lot in private in order to talk to him about this.

This is also a problem that Sun Hao is worried about.

He didn't like the feeling of being watched.

"Last question, how do you know I'm going to Richardson, going to that hotel, I'm going to listen to the truth."

Sun Hao looked directly at Gu Yi.

"I don't know."

"You don't know?"

"Everywhere I go, I do research on people who have investment potential there, and then I go to understand them, take note of them, Dallas Chinatown, the first Chinese to land in the NBA, you are definitely one of my targets, and I waited there for a week, it was the last day before I left, so we were fate."

Fate is a ghost.

After Gu Yi finished speaking, Sun Hao suddenly laughed.

Although it still sounds a little incredible, it seems that he really went out for a meal and met a nobleman.

"There's a café on Broadway."

Sun Hao opened his mouth and said.

Gu Yi waited until he said this, and his face burst into brilliance, but he still didn't show too much excitement, just nodded vigorously.

When he arrived at the café, Gu Yi talked to Sun Hao about more and more detailed things.

Indeed, he had something to talk about for half an hour.

For example, he felt that if Sun Hao couldn't change the team all of a sudden, he would have to make use of the limited Chinese resources in Dallas.

First of all, a fan club was established to provide weekend gatherings for fans, and at the same time, it also allowed fans to publicize and let more people become Sun Hao's fans.

Fans are the basis of popularity, and if Sun Hao wants to get more endorsements in Dallas, it is related to the Chinese market here, but it is not only about the Chinese.

Then, you can put some news about Sun Hao going shopping in Chinatown to attract more fans to go there, and also attract more Chinese to go there and make Chinatown bigger.

Then, when you have a fan base and endorsement is a matter of course, you can consider starting a personal brand.

For example, Sun Restaurant, Sun Clothing, Little Emperor with the same headband or something.

……

There are a lot of suggestions for details like this, and he even mentioned financial management to Sun Hao.

He knew that Sun Hao had been playing professionally in Europe for a long time, and he would "definitely" be deficient in this regard.
