At present, the Internet is quite developed, but Facebook has not yet been launched, this is in February 04, and it is still half a year away.

When Facebook goes online, Richard will inevitably have to invest a wave and continue to accumulate his net worth.

Richard made a direct call to TSN and asked them to give him an interview, anyway, this TSN was opened by Paul Allen's family......

……

When the TSN reporter came, Richard quickly beckoned them to sit down and began the interview.

The reporters are also confused, how can such a good person have an exclusive interview for himself.

Is this crazy trying to be famous......

If it is placed on others, there is really such a possibility, but when it is rested on Richard, this matter is not valid, because Richard has made headlines when he sees the sky, and in the entire sports circle, it is estimated that there are few people who are more famous than him.

……

"Ahem, Mr. Richard, what are we going to interview......" The reporter was also at a loss.

Interview about winning the championship? I've interviewed many times before, but now that the heat of winning the championship has passed, all major media have written it badly, and there is really nothing to interview.

"Let's talk about my parents today......" Richard waved his hand and gave the reporters an interview question.

The reporters were stunned for a moment, talking about their parents, didn't they say that you Richard were orphans......

What's there to interview here, could it be that you Richard is thinking about finding relatives now?!

"Well, Mr. Richard, can you talk to us about your parents?" The reporter said with a smile.

"How do I know, it's not like you don't know that I grew up in an orphanage......"

The reporter vomited blood, are you fucking Richard entertaining people......

"But one thing, I am very sure, my parents are Chinese, my grandparents are also Chinese, my maternal grandparents are also Chinese, my ancestors are eighteen generations up, they are all Chinese, and I can speak fluent Chinese." Richard said to reporters with great certainty.

……

The reporters were completely confused by Richard, they certainly didn't know about the domestic media in South Korea, and they didn't know what Richard wanted to say at the moment......

"Anyway, you write according to it, write something sensational, and most importantly, you must write out that my ancestors were all Chinese for the eighteen generations, especially to note, Lao Tzu has nothing to do with Korea, this passage will put me in the original words, and then give me bold and black!" Richard said with a smile.

Journalists are even more sore and write casually? Isn't this fucking fake news......

"What? Can't you do that? Or do I call Paul Allen and ask him to write it for me? Richard furrowed his brows......

"Write, write, be sensational......" The reporters wanted to cry without tears.

……

The next day, the news of TSN came out, and no one on Lao Mei's side cared, and it was just a mess of Richard's die-hard fans who were moved, daring to love Richard's miserable childhood,

Lao Mei has not paid much attention to it, but South Korea has directly caused an uproar.

They felt their faces swollen and were hit by Richard.

In the past two days, they just said that Richard is Korean, but after their domestic fan group celebrated, Richard immediately jumped out and conducted an exclusive interview......

It is said that he is Chinese, and his ancestors have been Chinese for eighteen generations.

What made their faces even more hot was that Richard seemed to know their domestic affairs in South Korea, and specially marked in black and bold in the interview, "Lao Tzu has nothing to do with South Korea!" ”。

To say that this reporter is too real, he did what Richard said, and even copied this sentence as it was, and also bolded and blackened it.

……

"Richard, this is targeting us Smecta ......"

"Hmph, when Ha Sheng Town enters the alliance, it will definitely break the myth of Richard's rule."

"It's up to Hesheng Town, he's our hope!"

"There are still two months left before the Asian Championships, come on Hesheng Town, and when the time comes, kill the Chinese men's basketball team led by Richard!"

Fans in South Korea only feel hot on their faces now, and they are quite annoyed and angry......

Originally, they had an endless love for Richard, and they felt that they had a face-saving face for South Korea.

As a result, Richard jumped out and slapped his face, the deeper they loved, the deeper they hated, and at this moment they almost wanted to kill Richard.

It's like, a buddy chases a little girl, and he pours out his heart and lungs for this little girl, and the two of them are going to get better when they look at the posture, but the girl declares in the newspaper that she has nothing to do with that buddy, and the words are bold and black......

I'm afraid this guy slaps his thigh angrily.

Now the situation of Korean fans is almost like this buddy, and Richard is like that girl......

……

The hustle and bustle of South Korea's fans, Richard definitely doesn't care.

What are you kidding, do they really expect parallel goods like Big Hippo to stop the Chinese men's basketball team? It's better to dream......

What is the No. 1 center in Asia, it would be good if this parallel goods could be ranked as the tenth center in Asia.

……

Seeing that the draft was about to begin, Richard also went a day earlier and gave David Lee a West Lafayette gold medal.

Originally, at this year's championship award ceremony, it stands to reason that Richard should have a West Lafayette gold medal award, but Richard feels that it will be more lively to save up and wait until he leaves the Pistons next year.

Therefore, this year's championship award, Richard did not get the West Lafayette gold medal.

However, David Lee's gold medal was prepared a long time ago, and the day before the draft, Richard solemnly handed it over to David Lee.

David Lee's face was naturally full of excitement, feeling that his bright future was just around the corner, and he would definitely become the mainstay of this alliance in the future, just like his predecessors in Silafayette.

But Richard knew that things would definitely not be so easy, and he didn't know what the consequences would be if David Lee entered the alliance ahead of schedule......

Because before David Lee, every NCAA player that Richard made out of it all honestly entered the league according to Richard's plan, except for David Lee.

Exceptions are a variable in Richard's view......

What he likes most about traveling through people like him is variables, and what he likes is that history develops according to a normal trajectory.

……

"Li, after entering the alliance, you must work hard, don't slack off, you are now the last lone seedling of West Lafayette, but don't embarrass everyone!" Richard patted David Lee on the shoulder and said solemnly.

David Lee also nodded solemnly......

……

The next evening, Richard took Miles to the draft venue, and tonight may be the largest number of draft picks since Richard entered the league.

And the quality of the picks, I'm afraid, is also the best......

……

When Richard entered the venue, many people got up to greet Richard.

Among them are many old acquaintances of Richard, and there are also some rookie coaches who have just been offered the managerial position.

However, even if he is a rookie coach, he is actually older than Richard, and at this moment, they all get up to "greet" Richard, and the scene is a little weird.

In the group of coaches, Richard saw Zhang Weiping with Stevens.

I'm afraid that Zhang Weiping's heart must not be very comfortable at the moment, because he missed the championship due to an unexpected injury, and it is not good for anyone to put this matter on him.

Stevens is still an assistant coach to the Trail Blazers, and Richard heard that the Clippers wanted to hire Stevens as head coach, but for some reason they didn't talk about it......

Richard guessed that it must be Stevens who asked for absolute rights, and the Clippers didn't give it, so the talks collapsed.

Don't look at Stevens young, but he has worked under Richard for so many years, but he is full of pride.

Let him be a puppet manager, he will never agree.

……

After everyone greeted each other for a while, Richard got to know a lot of rookie head coaches.

These rookie head coaches, in fact, are basically at the puppet level in their respective teams.

In the face of super coaches like Richard, their attitudes are quite respectful, with smiles on their faces.

Richard is also not pretentious, smiling at everyone, and seems to have a rather gentle personality.

But everyone knows that under Richard's gentle mask, there is a hidden devil's face, and if you make him unhappy, I am afraid that it will not be long before he can make your life worse than death......

The best example is probably Dunleavy Sr.

Now the Bucks general manager Dunleavy Sr., to be precise, the former Bucks general manager Dunleavy Sr., is quite worse than dead at the moment.

His son is now basically plagued by Richard, and he can't even get a starting spot on the Grizzlies.

Although when playing as a substitute, the performance was eye-catching, but when Richard said that, who dared to reuse Dunleavy Jr.

And he, the old man, is also having a hard time, just after the season ended, he stepped down as the general manager of the Bucks, and is now unemployed......

said that he was stepping down, that was to save face for old Dunleavy, and it should really be said that he was fired.

Anyway, the father and son are quite uncomfortable now.

If they were to do it all over again, they would probably never provoke Richard again......

There are so many precedents, and the current group of rookie head coaches in the venue naturally dare not provoke Richard, and even want to have a good relationship with Richard, maybe Richard can help them in the future.

……

After a period of pleasantries, Stern began to appear, and this year's draft officially began.

Richard was also a little excited in his heart, he caught up with the draft in '96, but because he had just entered the league, he was not very well prepared, and he didn't have many draft picks at hand.

And now that I'm catching up with this 03 draft, I'm already quite prepared.
