While the semifinals of the East and West were not over, Richard hurriedly ordered a diamond ring.

At the moment, Richard is not a small family, if you really want to buy a small diamond ring, maybe Tiana will not mind, and Paul Allen will have to scold himself to death......

Tiana may have a rich family, so she doesn't have any material requirements, even if it's just a one-carat diamond ring, it is enough to make her happy.

After all, the meaning of a diamond ring is there......

Richard did not dare to be ambiguous, and directly ordered a 12-carat pigeon egg from Harry Winston, known as the "King of Diamonds".

Speaking of which, in fact, a diamond ring of more than five carats is enough to be called a pigeon's egg......

However, although it is called a pigeon egg, it is not much larger than a peanut.

It's still a 12-carat diamond ring, and if it's a 5-carat, it's even smaller.

This diamond ring alone cost Richard $3.5 million.

The reason why it is so expensive is that there may not be no brand bonus, after all, it is known as the brand of the king of diamonds......

Richard remembered that Zhang Ziyi had a twelve-carat diamond ring in her hand, and I heard that it was given by her boyfriend, but as for which boyfriend it was, Richard didn't know very well.

Her 12-carat diamond ring was cheaper, only $2 million, probably because the clarity, cut or color was not as good as the one Richard ordered, so the price was much cheaper.

The prices of different diamonds can really be said to be very different, at least through this order, Richard can be regarded as having a lot more understanding of diamonds.

In the Eagle County incident, Bryant gave his daughter-in-law an eight-carat diamond ring worth $4 million, but he was a pink diamond, not suitable for a wedding ring.

……

Through this incident, it made Richard think of a way to make money.

The diamond ring can almost be said to be the biggest scam of the century, and it is actually worthless.

Mainly relying on marketing strategies, this has made diamonds sky-high.

When it comes to this marketing, Richard remembered that there was a very cheating diamond ring sales strategy in later generations......

One person has one ring, and a man has to register to buy a diamond ring, and he can only buy it once in his life.

It looks quite cheating, but some women eat this set.

Richard wondered if he should use this marketing strategy to test the waters of the jewelry industry.

If you really do it, the effect will definitely not be bad, and under the bombardment of advertisements in turn, the sales will be absolutely leveraged.

……

Just do it, Richard immediately used the old way and called the golden dragon.

In the past six months, the Golden Dragon has been busy cooperating with Jordan to build the big framework of the Charlotte Pirates, and now the framework is almost built, the recruitment of staff is basically done, and the rest of the coaching staff and other major things must be handled by Richard in the offseason.

For the golden dragon, Richard is grateful in his heart, it is precisely because of the existence of the golden dragon that he can do his job without distraction.

If there is no golden dragon, then Richard will not mention whether he can accumulate so much wealth in the end, just by multitasking, Richard can be exhausted to death......

Because there are so many things to deal with, Golden Dragon has actually helped Richard build a team a long time ago.

There are not too many people in this team, but they are all elites, and they are responsible for a certain area.

……

After the phone was connected, Richard told Huang Jinlong about the matter of one person and one ring carefully.

"God, Lee, sometimes I really want to pick up your brain and take a good look at whether it is different from normal humans!"

"How the hell did you come up with such a brilliant idea?"

"God, this is definitely a surefire deal!"

Next, the golden dragon carefully analyzed the idea......

Because it is a new brand, in terms of substance, it is definitely much inferior to old brands such as King of Diamonds or Tiffany's.

So it's better to go the parity route......

But even if it is a cheap route, diamonds are also very profitable, as long as the market can be opened, the revenue capacity will definitely be quite good.

And to open the market, Golden Dragon also has its own ideas.

For example, advertising bombardment under normal circumstances, that is essential.

Secondly, it is necessary to highlight the selling point of one person and one ring, and set up a website to register the information of men buying diamond rings, so as to facilitate women to log in and query......

To put it bluntly, this idea is all about making women's money.

The golden dragon couldn't stop admiring, this idea is absolutely valuable.

Of course, if you want to count on this to become the richest man in the world, you should wash and sleep, but after the sales are opened, there is still a good chance of making a profit of millions of dollars that year.

Even a profit of more than 10 million is not impossible.

……

Richard listened to the Golden Dragon's analysis, and also secretly sighed at the Golden Dragon's amazing ability to deal with details.

At least the creation of a website to make it easier for women to inquire about it, Richard didn't think of it......

"Okay, you can start doing this, I only need fifty percent of the shares, and the rest will be given to you, and I will give you the start-up capital." Richard said with a smile.

Only taking fifty percent of the shares, this can also be regarded as a way for Richard to return the golden dragon.

When he sees the world eating meat, he can't let the golden dragon drink soup all the time, and he should always let his family eat meat all the time.

Golden Dragon couldn't help but accept it, the start-up capital did not have to come out by himself, and Richard gave himself fifty percent of the shares, which is simply a good thing for pie in the sky.

It is not in vain that he has been assisting Richard conscientiously for so many years.

……

The matter has been finished, Richard was just about to hang up the phone, but the golden dragon asked him to wait, there was something to say to Richard.

"Boss, I have something to tell you, and I'm not sure if I'm doing the right thing right right now."

Next, the golden dragon told Richard about what had happened recently.

Naturally, the matter arose in the expansion of the new army......

Before Richard's Rule No. 3 was abolished, Jordan and Richard discussed that he wanted to sit in the position of general manager of the team and thought about the addiction of managing the team.

The position of president of basketball affairs was given to Richard......

Richard naturally has no reason not to agree, anyway, Jordan should not interfere too much in basketball affairs.

The position of general manager, Richard is now working in the Pistons, and it is really not an easy errand to do, and there are too many mistakes to deal with.

After the excitement of the beginning, Richard simply handed over all the work except basketball to Dumas and let him handle it.

Now that Jordan is going to be the general manager, Richard raised his hands in approval.

Because both of them hold 50% of the shares, neither of them gets a salary, and they all work day jobs......

Generally speaking, the salaries of the president and general manager of basketball business start at least $3 million, and some senior executives can sometimes even reach a salary of between $5 million and $10 million.

In order to save costs, many teams simply hold both positions at the same time.

And now the new Pirates are quite single, and the two owners are the general manager and president of the team, and they don't have to spend a dime......

As for the Golden Dragon, during the creation of the team, his ability was deeply recognized by Jordan, and he is about to take on the position of the team's chief financial officer, and the annual salary is not very high, only about one million dollars.

This position of chief financial officer, with the golden dragon, is definitely a very reliable choice.

Even if Jordan doesn't mention it, Richard will definitely have to promote the Golden Dragon to sit in this position.

Everything went quite smoothly, and Jordan and Richard were quite satisfied with the assignment.

However, the previous league restructuring canceled Richard No. 3 Law, which directly caused a series of problems.

Originally, because of Richard's No. 3 rule, Richard could not enter the coaching staff, so naturally there was no salary......

And now with the rule of three removed, Richard will undoubtedly be the head coach of this new team.

As the chief financial officer, Huang Jinlong, when making the draft list of personnel salaries, directly added an annual salary of 10 million to Richard.

When this sketch was reported to Jordan, Jordan's face immediately became ugly......

Ten million dollars, that's not a decimal number!

"Huang, didn't you say it before, neither Richard nor I get a salary? Why did he have an extra $10 million here? Jordan asked, frowning.

Golden Dragon laughed, "Mr. Michael, this time and that time, the previous agreement, that is because Mr. Richard cannot be the head coach of the team. ”

"And now that the Rule of Three has been lifted and Mr. Richard can join the team as a coach, you should know very well that Mr. Richard is definitely worth more than $10 million."

"Any team, any owner, even if it's 20 million dollars, there are people who break their scalps and fight for Mr. Richard!"

"This $10 million is just Mr. Richard's coaching salary, not including his salary as the team's president of basketball affairs, and this salary is still free according to the agreement between him and you."

The golden dragon's answer was completely reasonable, and Jordan was speechless for a while.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with what the golden dragon said, but he is a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"Is this Richard's arrangement?" Jordan asked, frowning.

The golden dragon shook his head, "No, Mr. Richard is very busy at the moment, and he has given me full authority to give me his part of affairs. ”

"Then you go and ask Richard, what does he think about this?" Jordan was obviously a little unhappy......

……

The golden dragon told Richard everything about it.

"BOSS, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU SHOULD DO ABOUT THIS? Do you want this million, or don't you want it? ”

"Yes! Naturally! ”

"There's no reason not to!" Richard replied rather dryly.

The brother also clearly settled the account, he and Jordan are just partners, and this money belongs to him, so why not.

Even if this team has half of its own equity, it should be his own, and Richard will not give it up.

More work and more rewards, this is an eternal truth.

Richard is much more important in this new army than Jordan's role.

It can be said that if there is no Richard, this new army will be a complete loss!

Normally, Robert Johnson created the Bobcats, why did he later sell a portion of his stake to Jordan?

The reason is that he can't bear it, and seeing Tian'er's loss, it is better to find someone to share the loss.

Now Richard has absolute confidence to lead the Pirates to make a profit, and he has played a value far beyond Jordan in it, why can't he take this 10 million.

It's a matter of course!

"Okay, then I'll go talk to Jordan about this, he shouldn't turn his face because of this 10 million." The golden dragon said with a smile.

He wasn't worried about Jordan turning his face at all, if the other party really wanted to turn his face, it would definitely be no benefit to Jordan.

At the moment, Jordan is a serious businessman, and he will definitely not be able to do more harm than good.

"Wait, give him some mercy, get a 20% discount, 8 million dollars......" Richard didn't want Jordan to be too ugly, so he simply took a small step back and gave Jordan a step.

When Huang Jinlong heard this, he immediately smiled bitterly, his boss is good everywhere, but he is a little too soft-hearted......

is so soft-hearted, he directly earned nearly two years less of his salary!

If outsiders knew that the golden dragon thought like this, I am afraid that he would vomit blood and die in three lives.

Where can the hell see that Richard is soft-hearted, isn't this guy a standard ruthless and black-hearted!

However, taking this small step back, in the eyes of Golden Dragon, is really wise, after all, the cooperation has just begun, and it is not a good thing to directly make the two parties unhappy.
