Chapter 414: You can't suffer a loss if you do good deeds
The Knicks are about to sweep the Pacers with a total score of 3-0, and the defending champions are afraid that they will have to break through in the first two rounds like last season, and teams like the 76ers and the Pacers seem to be not enough for them at this time. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Gasol looked more excited after the game, he took out a newspaper from this time last year at the press conference, and the reporters saw the report on it: The Spaniard's data is mediocre, such a performance for the monster is fantastic, the Lakers are about to be swept by the Mavericks!
Well, Gasol's move is no less than another stab to the boss on vacation, he reminded many people, it seems that the Lakers have been swept for two consecutive years, but few people have noticed this if Gasol doesn't mention it, so it seems that the Spaniards are also very black-bellied, look at this knife and the Holy Sect Master is about to have a fight, and the phrase "black who is close to ink" is really not nonsense.
Although Gasol has not said anything, he is obviously angry about the fact that the media and fans rushed to point the finger at him after the Lakers were swept last year, and this guy has been holding his breath in his heart, and now he can finally vent.
But what is more embarrassing is that the focus of the fans' mouths after the game is still the praise of Wu Huang, but this does not prevent him from celebrating the victory, Gasol does not care about being left out in the cold, as long as he does not throw the pot to him after losing.
Another star of the Knicks is even more low-key inside, David West completely ignores the media and fan discussions, and now he just wants to win as many championships as possible with the Knicks.
David West is a bit brainless in this regard, and he even publicly expressed, "As long as Wu Huang has been in New York and the team can continue to be as dominant as this year, then he is willing to live with the Knicks for the rest of his life, even if he is willing to reduce his salary after the contract expires." ”
Emperor Wu felt in his heart that this kind of person was really second, how could you say it directly if you had such a noble behavior? In this way, no matter how great you are, you will get far less praise in the end. Just imagine, if David West took the initiative to stand up and say something like "I want a pay cut" when the Knicks were stuck in the team's salary and couldn't sign someone, then he could get the team's greatest gratitude and the most praise from the fans, but now that he has expressed his position so early, then these things will become worthless.
Therefore, Emperor Wu felt that David West was actually quite second, and he couldn't communicate with him for doing good deeds without leaving a name.
Back to the third game between the two teams, Wu Huang's performance was indeed very good, so his huge water army was once again assembled after the game, and for a while, posts about how he was wise and martial instantly occupied the basketball forums of various countries.
But what made Wu Huang angry was that some posts even forgot to remove the number behind the content, which made him very unhappy, and therefore severely criticized the Morritz brothers for neglecting the supervision of the water army recently, this kind of thing has happened several times recently, and it is easy to damage his majesty by always making such low-level mistakes.
Speaking of which, Emperor Wu became more and more aware of the benefits of the navy, and he also liked more and more the brain-dead slogans touted by the disciples about him, and he was a little bit of a bit of a go-to and undefeated in the East. But fortunately, Emperor Wu has not been lost in these praises, and there is always a calm emotion in his heart that reminds him of what made him successful and status.
Wu Huang's training has not decreased, but there are a lot less endorsements and advertisements, because after 11 years, he does not negotiate contracts with companies other than the world's top 500 companies, and the small business of less than five million US dollars a year is completely ignored.
Last year, Wu Huang's Apple mobile phone endorsement contract expired with one year left, and at that time, he directly issued a 3-year sky-high renewal request of 30 million US dollars.
However, this year's Emperor Wu has directly increased the price to 60 million for 4 years, and almost vomited blood on the spot from Apple's successor Cook!
The Holy Sect Master's sky-high asking price can be said to be completely unreasonable, except in the field of sneakers, how can there be such an outrageous price of sports star endorsements exceeding tens of millions of dollars a year? And Wu Huang said that he would only shoot one advertisement for them a year and attend two public events, which was simply inviting a father back to offer.
However, Samsung said that they are willing to be sons, let alone sons, even grandsons!
Although the price offered by Emperor Wu is high, they are willing to give it! Even if there are a few more female stick stars for the sect leader to dive, anyway, a large number of girl groups on their side are crying and shouting to drink the bath water of the holy sect leader, even if they form a group to drink, they are willing.
However, Samsung Stick didn't expect that Chinese companies would also be rich, and they were willing to keep up with this price, and there were also female celebrities who warmed the bed for the Holy Sect Master.
A third of Wu Huang's endorsement contract will expire at the end of this year, and these guys who are crying and shouting to be grandchildren have begun to line up, and recently even the European and American companies that feel that Wu Huang is asking for a sky-high price have begun to bow their heads to evil. Because after evaluation, they found that the sales in Asia with and without Wu Huang's endorsement will be seriously affected, so even if Wu Huang's endorsement price is no different from robbery, if they want to keep their market share from being squeezed by their opponents, they can only come up and be slashed by the sect leader.
"Next year's goal is to make 100 million!" Wu Huang has already set a small goal for himself in his heart, not counting salary, sneaker share and his own corporate income next year, he will exceed the $100 million mark in pure endorsement income, exceeding Jordan's endorsement income of $70 million last year, and climb to the top spot of all retired and non-retired stars in one fell swoop, and must exceed the total endorsement of the top ten active NBA stars.
Wu Huang's goal is not small, even if the money he makes now is enough to make Kobe Bryant and James red-eyed. However, making money is making money, Wu Huang still has a very high passion for basketball and charity, he insists on holding youth basketball training camps and basketball schools in Asia, mainly in China, and at the same time, his investment in his charitable foundation has been greatly increased, and even the hemophilia research center funded by him has been established, Wu Huang is ready to spend his own money to make long-term blood clotting factors.
Of course, don't think about treating this disease completely, Wu Huang didn't have the funds to complete a genetic disease as intractable as AIDS, as long as he could develop a cheap drug that would last for more than a week, he felt that he was very remarkable.
Speaking of which, some media have been controversial about Wu Huang's never supporting AIDS-related charities, especially after Wu Huang's aggressive reply, many media outlets have criticized it.
At that time, the Holy Sect Master said a little excessively, "Don't be kidding, how did this damn disease come about?" You and I both know that some people deserve to die, and they are not worth mentioning! I am willing to help those who have been abandoned by God, but those who have abandoned themselves, they should solve the problem themselves. ”
Such an answer is obviously not safe, and there are many innocent people in this disease, and he has killed too many people with this stick. In addition, some media criticized the areas where Emperor Wu carried out charity, and Emperor Wu did not refute this, because he did not carry out charitable activities in developed areas, and he did not deny this.
"I will set up more than 500 semi-profitable youth basketball camps and basketball schools in Asia before I retire." This is Wu Huang's previous promise to fans, but his semi-profitable nature is quite detrimental, because he only waives all fees for those students who are talented and can rank in the top 10 of the school every year. As for the rest of the students, they had better come from wealthy families, otherwise the tuition bill would be enough to make a well-off family bleed.
Wu Huang's black-hearted nature is vividly reflected here, although those talented students can be exempted from all fees, but this is conditional, if they become professional players in the future, then they need to return 30% of their salary to the school until retirement.
So you can calculate with your toes, as long as a school produces an NBA starter-level player, the previous return will be hundreds of times back. Even if a CBA-level main player is cultivated, it will be at least dozens of times the return, and Wu Huang can't lose at all.
This kind of agreement does not actually have enough legal effect, and those players can completely disobey the agreement after becoming famous. But in China, this is a typical ingratitude, not repaying gratitude, once exposed by the media, then this person no longer has to raise his head to be a man, and the huge public opinion is enough to make him a street rat.
In fact, Emperor Wu is no longer short of money, so what's the use of him being so greedy for money?
This question, Wu Huang himself thinks it's useless, he just doesn't want to suffer, having money doesn't mean that I have to scatter around, do charity to help people who really need help, he can do it without asking for anything in return. But those who are physically gifted, why should Lao Tzu help you in vain? Since you helped, then of course you have to pay a certain price.
In short, even if Emperor Wu is charitable, he will be quite controversial, and he is different from ordinary people.
Now back to the game, the day before the Knicks' victory over the Pacers, the Bulls staged a big comeback on the road, they came back in the final quarter after trailing by 13 points in the first three quarters, and successfully turned the Heat on the road with excellent defense.
Bosh became the sinner of losing that game again, he shot 0 of 4 in the fourth quarter, missed two free throws, and only scored 9 points and 9 rebounds in the whole game, such statistics are obviously sorry for his status as a giant. As expected, the media fired at him again after the game, who told this guy to always slap the media in the face when he played well, how could those grudge-holding guys spare him when he didn't perform well?
James and Bosh are the two people who are most likely to be criticized by the media for the Heat, precisely because they like to confront the media when they perform well, and now many fans follow the media to hack them, in fact, they are also affected by public opinion.
Wu Huang also likes to slap the media in the face, but he is the only one in the entire league who can do this, because he has always been the final winner, and the media can't retaliate against him no matter how much they hate him.
Although media public opinion can influence the people who eat melons, they can't fool everyone as fools. Not to mention public opinion, even the more terrifying religion cannot fool everyone with a normal IQ into a fool. The biggest progress in modern society is that most people with normal IQ have relatively normal three views and the ability to distinguish between right and wrong.
The most witty thing about Wade in the Big Three is that he doesn't easily offend the media, and he knows that unless you become the strongest in this field, you still don't have to get along with public opinion. Jordan back then could not give face to the media, because he was the strongest, and he would not lose. The current Emperor Wu can also do it for the time being, but as long as he loses once, he will have to return them all, but who can guarantee that he will never lose?
In the West, the Mavericks have lost another home court, and the odds are stacking against them right now. Although Jeremy Lin returned in the third game of the series, he was not in good shape, playing only 20 minutes, contributing five points and three assists, but also had two turnovers.
The Rockets could have won on the road, but the Houstoners' tradition of crashing in the final quarter returned, and they were actually attacked by the Thunder in the fourth quarter with an absolute advantage of 15 points in the first three quarters of Game 3!
In this game, the Thunder team scored 40 points in the fourth quarter, and this terrifying output firepower increased their odds to win the championship a lot after the game.
The Los Angeles media believes that the Lakers should not have given up on Fisher in the first place, although fans have only seen the explosive output of the Thunder and Ibaka's strong defense, but they believe that the championship experience and locker room coordination brought by the old fish are the most missing victory factors for the Thunder at the moment.
The Los Angeles media now has reason to believe that it was a mistake to give up the old fish, the Lakers gave up the old fish in the hope of improving the team's point guard's advancing speed and offensive ability, obviously Sessions is significantly stronger than the "old fish" Fisher in terms of personal ability and physical fitness, and at the beginning of joining, Sessions' performance was also very hot. But in the playoffs, Sessions can only contribute 9.8 points, 3.6 assists and 2.8 rebounds per game, while Fisher's data in the playoffs last season was 8.2 points, 3.6 assists and 2.7 rebounds.
Wu Huang did not deny that the Thunder did pose a great threat to the Knicks, but he did not agree with the voice of the Los Angeles media, and he felt that this was the boss's prescient insertion of a needle in the Thunder team.
Is Old Fish really an outcast of the Lakers?
This is not necessarily, from some of the news that has come out so far, it can be seen that the old thing that claims to be the leader of the locker room is simply ill-intentioned! Wu Huang felt that this product was likely to be sent by the Lakers to break up the Thunder team!
Since Fisher came to the Thunder, especially since the playoffs, rumors of Harden fighting for the ball have never gone away, and even the news that the bearded man was angrily rebuked by Fisher in the locker room also appeared when the Thunder lost.
Emperor Wu thinks that Fisher's role in it is very suspicious, and this thing often appears as the mentor of the three youths, but there is only one object of criticism, and that is Harden. This made Wu Huang feel ridiculous, because in the Lakers, this guy didn't dare to criticize Kobe, and even Odom and others never listened to him, but in the Thunder, he constantly ruined the atmosphere in the team, and instead became a leader.
The truth is very simple in the eyes of the thick black Wu Huang, he always thinks that Fisher is just a player who will please the boss, and his career has always survived by this rule - successively hugging O'Neal and Kobe's thighs, allowing him to win 5 championships, and now to the Thunder, the object he chooses to support is Durant and Wei Shao, so as to suppress Harden, isn't this his rule of survival? This guy is the one who is best at ganging up.
Emperor Wu felt that people like Lao Yu were the most terrifying, he would always appear as a good person, but what kind of good person could a person who seduced someone's wife? So he is the same kind of person as himself, everyone is hypocritical, and they are not good people.
Battier has always had a bad impression of Fisher, pretending to be innocent after beating his head and bleeding. But this is just a trivial matter, and the most criticized thing for the old fish is that he successively pit the rocket and the calf, and as a result, the thunder came and hugged the thigh.
This kind of thing has been done more than once, when he was in the Jazz, he used his daughter's illness as an excuse, but immediately after leaving the Jazz to join the Lakers, this guy has long been a representative of the league's hypocrites.
However, this year's Thunder is really strong, which makes Knicks fans a little worried, because not only is the state of the three young ones excellent, almost allowing the Thunder to form a set of two All-Stars + a quasi-All-Star young Big Three, their inner Ibaka is also able to compete with Chandler and Howard for the existence of the best defensive player, and the center Perkins is also enough to resist any inside, which makes the Heat team very embarrassed, and the Thunder team is a real offensive firepower overflow, but it is not a bad defensive BUH-level team.
If the Lakers wait for Howard to recover from his injury next season and make up for it, then the Heat's lineup may not be an opponent, but why are the fans still biting them?
This is also something that many Heat and James fans can't figure out, if it comes to disrupting the balance of the game, with these four teams in front, why can't they take their turn?
Scores from the first three games of the second round of the playoffs:
Western Conference - Spurs (2) vs. (1) Mavericks; Thunder (3) vs (0) Rockets
Eastern Conference - Knicks (3) vs (0) Pacers; Bulls (2) vs Heat (1)
On May 16, the San Antonio Spurs finally lost to the Dallas Mavericks on the road, and Duncan only scored 6 points and 8 rebounds in this game. The boxing king played 42 minutes and sent 4 blocks, although this data is not as good as Howard and Ibaka, but he was able to beat these two to get the best defensive player, not because of how ungodly the data on the defensive end is, but because of his effective defense, and interference with the enemy's outside line is more in place, including Wu Huang did not dare to challenge the boxing king easily in the face of the Mavericks, but he dared to single out Ibaka, this is the value of Tyson Chandler's existence, just by making Wu Huang jealous, he can almost let him get the top salary.
Jeremy Lin still didn't play too brightly in this game, and not playing the first round had a great impact on him, although the intensity of the playoffs was much greater than that of the regular season, but it was also from shallow to deep, and the intensity of the first round was still worse than the second round. But as soon as Jeremy Lin came back, he directly faced the old spurs, and the difficulty jump was too big, so even the Dallas media gave him a lot of tolerance, but the Chinese media and some fans who were rhythmic complained about Jeremy Lin's poor performance, which was too much.
The game between the Heat and the Bulls was also played today, this time the Heat did not give the Bulls another chance, Wade scored a game-high 34 points to help the Heat win the Bulls, and the score was 2:2, and the next battle of Tianwang Mountain will largely determine the outcome of this series.
Miami fans finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time, if the second home court is lost again, then the Knicks are estimated to have their eyes on the Bulls, losing two away games in a row and falling behind 1:3, which basically means going home to fish.
"Someone should be going home fishing tomorrow, right?" After watching the Heat vs Bulls game with his teammates at the hotel, Wu Huang thought about it quite easily. At this point, even he didn't think the Pacers would be able to return to New York, and tomorrow they would have to pay for the opponent's remaining trip. (To be continued.) )
