Surrounded by a group of reporters, Zhang Guan was a little helpless. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"I really didn't plan on going to the NBA." Zhang Guan said.

"But there's already news from the United States that the Los Angeles Lakers have sent someone to contact you!" The reporter asked relentlessly.

"If I wanted to go to the NBA, I would have gone two years ago, not now." Zhang Guan shrugged.

"There is news that two years ago, you had reached an agreement with the Boston Celtics, but you were selected early by the Lakers, and you were very dissatisfied with the news that the Lakers cut off the beard, so you never went to the NBA?" A reporter said provocatively.

Zhang Guan frowned slightly, these reporters like to write nonsense the most, and sometimes they can write ugly without hatred. He had to respond: "I've always had a very good relationship with the Los Angeles Lakers. I don't go to the NBA for the time being, mainly because my game tasks have always been relatively heavy. ”

"For the time being? Are you saying you're going to the NBA in the future? A reporter immediately asked.

"Well, but I don't think I'll be going for the next two years, and the new Olympic selection cycle is about to begin, so my main task next year is to do recovery training for the Olympic program and then prepare for the 2012 Olympic trials." Zhang Guan immediately changed the subject.

The topic of the Olympics has obviously aroused new interest among reporters, such as "how many gold medals are going to be won in this Olympics", "what sports will you participate in in the London Olympics", "whether you are confident of surpassing Phelps in the all-time gold medal table of the Olympic Games", and other topics have all been withdrawn by reporters.

After all, the NBA is only basketball, and basketball can only be regarded as a part of sports, and it is the latter that attracts people's attention more than the topic of the Olympics as a whole.

……

Zhang Guan leaned back on the sofa and let out a sigh of relief, dealing with reporters is indeed a very troublesome thing, and he can neither say more nor say less. If you talk too much, reporters will distort all kinds of different meanings, and if you say too little, reporters will add fuel to all kinds of conjectures.

"These reporters are such a nuisance!" Zhang Guan felt a little tired and closed his eyes to rest for a while, but the ringtone of his mobile phone made him wake up.

"It's Huang Weida!" Zhang Guan immediately picked up the phone.

Since the Athens Olympic Games, Zhang Guan has become a big customer of Fidelity Investment, after all, Hong Kong Island is an international financial center, Zhang Guan's overseas investment, mainly through Huang Weida's Fidelity Investment, and these investments have also obtained a lot of income for Zhang Guan, it can be said that Fidelity Investment is the manager of Zhang Guan's overseas assets.

"Dirty Xiansen (Mr. Zhang), Ao is like Huang Weida (I am Huang Weida)!" Huang Weida opened his mouth and said, his Chinese is still a little vague, except for the three words "Huang Weida", Huang Weida almost has almost no words that can be said to be round, but Zhang Guan is used to these.

"Mr. Huang, what's the matter?" Zhang Guan asked.

"There's an investment, I wonder if you're interested?" Huang Weida accentuated his voice and continued: "It's the sports industry. ”

"The sports industry? What project? Zhang Guan immediately asked.

"Basketball, the NBA in the United States." Huang Weida said.

“nba？ Could it be that someone is going to sell the team? Zhang Guan asked, but his mind began to recall that around 2010, there was a team owner in the NBA who wanted to sell the team.

"It's not about selling the team, it's about selling the stake in the team." Huang Weida said.

"Oh, it's selling shares!" Zhang Guan nodded, but his tone was quite interested.

The NBA has developed rapidly in recent years, especially the acceleration of nationalization, and audiences in more than 200 countries around the world have begun to pay attention to this professional league, which has also brought a lot of benefits to the NBA, and at the same time, the shares of NBA teams have also become fragrant buns.

In fact, there are not many NBA teams that can make a profit, the vast majority of teams are loss-making, even if they are profitable teams, the income is not high, so the dividends of shareholders are not much, purely from the perspective of obtaining income, investing in the NBA is not a profitable business. Even if you take the money and deposit it in the bank, you will give some interest, and the NBA team, if it loses money this year, the shareholders will certainly not get a penny.

But from an investment point of view, buying a stake in an NBA team is definitely a sure bet. Because with the promotion of the NBA, the market value of the team has also continued to increase, which brings that the team's shares will become more and more valuable. Maybe you bought a stake in the team for $10 million today, and it will be worth $20 million in a few years, and another $30 million in a few years. With a rate of return in "times", you don't need to care about that little bit of profit dividends.

For example, Jordan bought the Charlotte Bobcats as his own boss, although the Bobcats are losing money almost every year, and their record has been in the bottom ranks, but affected by the general trend of the NBA, the market value of the Bobcats has also increased a lot, and the personal assets of Joe's gang owner have at least doubled.

Because of this, the shareholders of NBA teams have not changed much, and team shares are also quite popular with many large investors, and Zhang Guan is also very interested in this.

So Zhang Guan opened his mouth and asked, "Is that team going to sell shares?" ”

"It's a stake in the Los Angeles Lakers." Huang Weida said.

"The Lakers?" Zhang Guan involuntarily sat up straight.

With the Los Angeles Lakers' "status" in the NBA, their sale of shares may attract many investors.

On the other end of the phone, Huang Weida continued: "Magic Johnson bought a 4.5% stake in the Lakers in 1994, and this time he is ready to sell that 4.5% stake. On Wall Street, there are already many investors who are very interested in this, but Johnson's asking price is a bit high, so many people are still hesitating. In addition to this, the Bass family is also a problem. ”

"I don't think the asking price is a problem, after all, the price is negotiable, and the main problem is the Bass family, right?" Zhang Guan said with a smile.

"One word hits!" Huang Weida continued: "If there is no approval from the Bass family, I am afraid it will be difficult to get this 4.5% stake in the Lakers. ”

"And how much does Johnson cost?" Zhang Guan then asked.

"$50 million." Huang Weida said.

"$50 million, 4.5% of the shares, then he values the Lakers at $1.111 billion." Zhang Guanxin began to calculate whether it was worth it or not.

"With the current situation of the Lakers, valuing $1 billion is a reasonable price, after all, the Lakers have not disclosed their debt situation. $50 million, which is indeed a little higher, if you are really interested, you can bargain. Huang Weida said.

"It's best to negotiate the price, and if Johnson refuses to lower the price, give him $50 million!" Zhang Guan said without hesitation: "As for the Bass family, I'll take care of it!" ”

Is $50 million worth buying 4.5% of the Lakers? Great value for sure! You must know that the Clippers in the same city will sell $2 billion in the future, and with the Lakers' background, the valuation of $1 billion is too low.

What makes Zhang Guan determined is the increase in the overall value of the NBA in the future, such as the increase in the overall broadcast contract price of the NBA, which has increased the market value of each team to a great extent, especially a year later, Time Warner and the Lakers signed a 25-year sky-high broadcast contract of $5 billion, making the Lakers' broadcast fee exceed that of Real Madrid and Barcelona, and the market value of the Lakers has also risen all the way, approaching $3 billion.

Of course, a market value of $3 billion does not mean that you can buy the Lakers with $3 billion! A high-quality asset like the Lakers may not be able to be bought even at a premium.

So in the future, some people will comment that Magic Johnson sold the Lakers at this time is a huge loss. And Zhang Guan is obviously willing to be the one who picks up bargains. What's more, the opportunity to buy a stake in the Lakers is an opportunity that is rare but not sought, so Zhang Guan decided to buy the 4.5% stake in the Lakers without hesitation.

Zhang Guan put down the phone and rubbed his temples.

"I didn't want to have anything to do with the Lakers, but this time, I can't do it without intersection! However, if this transaction is successful, although I will not become a player of the Lakers, I will become a shareholder of the Lakers, which can be regarded as another way to enter the NBA! Zhang Guan thought silently.
