The impact of this game has been staggering. "Zen Master" Phil Jackson issued a post-season retirement declaration, announcing the end of the struggle within the Lakers' management.

Jenny Buss's faction has suffered a major blow and has no chance of turning the tables around, and the Lakers are already Jim Buss' team.

As the daughter of the owner of the Lakers, Jenny and the "Zen Master" have been in love for 10 years, and of course he doesn't want his lover to leave, so he tries to persuade him.

Jackson has made up his mind: "If I stay, the Lakers will not be better." You know basketball, you should know that the coach is only a winning factor, and the key is the players. Unless a genius joins the Lakers, the Lakers will not be able to win another championship until Kobe Bryant retires. ”

Jenny was not reconciled. "You're so dismissive of Kobe?"

"Am I optimistic that he will be useful? He is not Wang Jun's opponent, let alone the king and James? "As a veteran coach, Jackson has foreseen the future of the Lakers. Before the two Kings stars broke up, the Lakers didn't have a chance at all.

"We might be able to trade another player."

"It's useless, the Lakers' interior depth is already the first in the league, how can they be traded? If you change to a guard, you won't be stronger, and the outside player can only be a fixed-point shooter when he arrives at the Lakers, unless Kobe Bryant is traded away in exchange for a younger star to rebuild, do you think Jim will do that? ”

Jenny sighed, Jim treats Kobe as his own son and relies on Kobe to attract fans.

Buss Jr. is a pure businessman, he doesn't even care if the team wins the championship, he just makes money. Bryant's business value is amazing, his professional attitude is the top in the league, and from a business point of view, no boss will send him away.

Jackson was also depressed, this game left a stain on his coaching career, and it is better to finish the season alive than retire in the summer.

As a shrewd man, Jackson was also well aware that Jenny and he couldn't take over the team, and Buss Sr. had already made a decision.

Cheng is also a "Zen master", and defeat is also a "Zen master".

Jenny's weight in the Lakers is increasing day by day is closely related to the achievements of the "Zen master" led by the team, but it also makes the old Buss who does not want to be in charge of his own career fall into the hands of outsiders, and it can be said that helping the Zen master to squeeze out the Lakers meritorious Jerry West is Jenny's biggest failure, and it has angered the old Buss since then, making the old Buss biased towards Jim.

In fact, Jim's biggest advantage over Jenny, who speaks by ability and grades, is that Old Bass is supporting him, and he is the old Bass's preferred heir, or this is also the only choice for Old Bass, who doesn't want his daughter to inherit the family business.

Jim and Kupchak were not having a good time either, and after the loss, Bryant began to press the palace again.

"There are people in the team who don't want to win." "I need help."

pays the league's highest luxury tax, has a roster with an annual salary of hundreds of millions, and teammates are still a group of "CBAs". Even if the Lakers management has great ability, where can they find a star for Kobe?

They can only sign first and then exchange, and they have to exchange it for a garbage contract, just like Gasol did back then, otherwise no matter how rich the boss is, he will not be able to bear it.

This game also announced that the Lakers officially turned from prosperity to decline.

The Kings were given two days off and didn't play a tough game at home against the young Grizzlies until Saturday.

On Thursday afternoon, someone came from Los Angeles to visit Wang Jun, Hollywood actor Channing Tatum.

Wang Jun was surprised when he received the call, because they didn't know each other at all, and they had only met twice at the party. Wang Jun liked the commercial film "Special Forces Cobra Rise" and chatted with him for a while.

Tatum brought a bottle of good red wine to dinner, pretending to be very familiar, indicating that he originally wanted to attract investment and prepare for a movie.

The cost of the movie is not high, the budget is only 7 million US dollars, which is a small amount for Wang Jun, but Tatum can't come up with it, he has just become famous, the salary is not high, and he does not have much savings.

"What is it about a good script that makes you and the director want to shoot it out of their own pockets? Let's talk about it, as long as the plot is good, we are willing to participate. Theron laughed.

She has not made any new films recently, but just received scripts and made money as a producer. Unless she sees a script she particularly likes, she will go into battle herself.

has made several blockbuster films in a row, and her salary has increased now, and she is no longer looking for literary films and feature films. Theron is interested in the big-budget commercial movie, and he has to read the script, and the best role is brilliant, and he doesn't have to shoot it for too long.

Tatum explained with a smile: "A movie about dancing, if Wang is interested, you can play a role in it, we plan to start filming in the summer, and your dancing skills are absolutely fine." ”

"Oh? What's the content? Wang Jun was interested. He practiced basketball and became a dance king, and he wanted to show off when he had an opportunity.

"It's called Magic Mike." Tatum laughed.

"Well, I like the name, it sounds like a sci-fi ......" At this time, Wang Jun was ready to make his second movie.

Then, Tatum talked about the plot with great interest.

"The main character, Mike, is an entrepreneur and a man with a lot of talent and charisma, who is normal during the day, but at night, he transforms into 'Magic Mike'."

Wang Jun raised his hand to interrupt: "This is a movie with superpowers, right?" I'm going to act, it's done. ”

Abby rolled her eyes: "Are you okay to listen to people first, how old are you, happy to hear about magic and superpowers?" ”

Tatum was a little embarrassed and said, "Mike doesn't have superpowers...... In the evenings, he is the leader of an all-male striptease performance team. ”

"......" Wang Jun was directly stunned.

The two women laughed on the sidelines.

Tatum goes on to tell the story, when Mike sees in a 19-year-old boy whose stage name is "Kid" enough to surpass his stage potential, and decides to bring him under his protection, not only teaching him a lot of the art of dancing, but also teaching him how to socialize with the women who come to see the show and earn tips easily......

"I take back what I just said, absolutely not acting! You're here to drag me to the striptease? Wang Jun has a black line.

"If you show off your figure, you will definitely attract the audience." Tatum smiled wryly.

"No, no."

Are you kidding? He is not short of money, and there is no need to use this way to show off his figure. However, Wang Jun knew that Tatum had worked as a stripper before, so he did not ridicule the profession.

It's really lucrative, and Americans love that tune.

Tatum was not depressed, and smiled: "I guess please don't move you, it's just a proposal, please don't be angry...... I have absolute confidence in this movie, if you invest, you will definitely make money. ”

The film is based on his experiences as a young man, and he intends to participate in the writing and production of the film while serving as the leading actor in the film. Since 80% of the movies are R-rated films, not many people are willing to invest, and if they can't get sponsorship, the shooting will have to be postponed.

Wang Jun is a layman in making movies, so he watched Tatum talk with Theron on the sidelines, and after asking a lot of questions in detail, Theron decided to invest.

With a cost of only about 7 million, it is easy to return to the cost, and just Tatum can attract a lot of female audiences by showing off his muscles.

Theron asked, "Is it okay for us to invest 3 million?" ”

"Of course, thank you, you have helped a lot, and you will not be disappointed."
