Chapter 271: The Portland Storm
※※※
Nie Huan's self-confidence added a little confidence to Bill Gates's heart, and Paul Allen looked at Nie Huan with interest from the sidelines, who can slaughter Gates to this point, this world is really not rare, he is not only the richest man in the world, but also the most shrewd person in the world.
"I agree, but you have to make it as soon as possible and put it in our hands." Gates gritted his teeth, and the impact of this upgraded version of the system on Microsoft is undoubtedly unprecedented.
"Okay, no problem, I can write the source file now, and let Mark sort it out, but before then, are we going to sign the contract?" Nie Huan really got into the eyes of money.
Bill Gates had no objection, another blonde beauty came over, Zuckerberg commanded a few words, and the beauty left gracefully, and Paul Allen was stunned.
"Where did you two find so many beauties? Why didn't we see so many people when our company was hiring? Paul Allen almost drooled on the ground, he carefully looked at all the staff in this hall, and came to a conclusion that the beauty index of this company is very high, and the gold content is also amazing.
Nie Huan yawned, "I found them on the street, these people have similar IQs to you, and they all came voluntarily." ”
"Then if it's voluntary, why don't you hire some male employees?" Paul Allen smiled ambiguously.
Nie Huan's expression was a little cramped, but he quickly adjusted, "Because I think it is enough to have Mark and one beast in the company, and if there are a few more, we will become a zoo here, and there are so many eye-catching people, which will improve Mark's work efficiency a lot." ”
Burst...... Paul Allen squirted the coffee out at once. Zuckerberg's face flushed and looked very embarrassed, but it was true, and he came up with the idea.
"Eh, I want to work like you, and my productivity won't be lower than Mark's." Paul Allen came up with this sentence.
"Eh, our temple here can't fit your great god." Nie Huan said funny.
Paul Allen shook his head. "It's good if you're a basketball player, but it's a pity you're playing football. Damn, I put a lot of money into this team every year, but what about the results? ”
Nie Huan smiled, and Paul Allen was talking about the veterinarian-infested team under his command, the Portland Trail Blazers.
"Paul, I don't think I'll be able to get you any good results even if I go, because the doctor of your team is more terrible than anything else."
Nie Huan is not wrong at all, how many superstars have been ruined by the veterinarians of this team, except for Drexler who escaped. Otherwise, it will be difficult to escape the clutches of the devil.
Paul Allen understands that the crux of the daring team is here, "Okay, I'm going to fire this group of vets, but where can you find a team doctor for me." ”
Nie Huan looked confident, "I know a lot of people at the Cologne Sports Academy, I can recommend a few for you, they are definitely better than the beasts in your team." And it's a lot stronger, but your team is not only the team doctor. It's also chaotic internally, and you have to find someone with iron will to lead it, and Rashid Wallace is definitely the top forward in this league, but his character needs someone who can really hold him down. “
Paul Allen's eyes lit up, "Wow, I can't think of you as a football superstar." He knows so much about basketball, so who do you think can stop him? ”
"Paul Westfaal," Nie Huan spat out a name. This guy once led the Suns to the Finals, although he lost to the basketball god Michael Jordan, but his coaching ability is still worthy of recognition, although the current head coach Morris Cheeks is compared to him. He could crush the other party when he was a player, but in other aspects, Nie Huan really didn't dare to compliment.
Paul Allen thought about it carefully, and the other party's appearance soon appeared in front of him, "But this guy is not iron-blooded, and he looks like a good gentleman, is this really okay?" ”
"Of course, the two of them are not the same street in terms of regular season win percentage or playoff win rate, Paul Westphale has always been an underrated coach, the main thing is that Chicos can't compare, that is, his ability to develop new talents, there are a lot of good goods in this year's draft, I suggest you can trade other players in exchange for good seedlings, to be honest, your team is now trading everyone except a few people."
The reason why this team has become a Portland prison is because there are too many outlaws, oh, I can't say that, there should be too many thorns.
Paul Allen was silent, he bought the Portland Trail Blazers, not to throw money at it, but to hope that the team could bring victory.
"Well, what about the rest, is there anything else you'd like to add?" Anyway, if you plan to shuffle the cards, it's better to shuffle the cards completely, Paul Allen has never been a hesitant person.
"Well, if you can, you can poach Jerry West from the Grizzlies, and it's definitely not luck that he's helped the Lakers win so many championships." Nie Huan seemed to be addicted, and he said everything he expected in his heart.
Paul Allen wrote it down, and he was still quite convinced of Nie Huan, although the pioneer was just a toy in his hands, but even a toy couldn't throw so much money into it every year.
"Then you make a list for me, I'll do it, I think you're more reliable than Jerry West." Paul Allen said with a smile.
Nie Huan thought carefully about the lineup of the Trail Blazers, and then wrote down all the characters he thought were valuable on the paper, "Billups, Josh Howard, Barbossa, who else, yes, Arenas, and then that's all, as for the current team, Bunch Wells and Ruben Patterson are resolutely sent away, and they are actually the culprits of the Portland prison." ”
Nie Huan wrote a big push, and Paul Allen took it and looked at it, with only surprise in his eyes. If you send all these guys away and bring in these few instead, it will definitely not be a loss.
"A lot of these people are the team's scorers, can they really be sent away?" These people are Bunch Wells is the team's No. 2 scorer, and if they are really sent away, I believe many people will want it.
"Of course, the door to the transfer market should not be closed right now, you can send it away now, or change a few top picks, preferably the top three." Bunch Wells would be really profitable if they could get a top pick.
Paul Allen didn't doubt it, and Nie Huan didn't need to lie to him at all. Paul Allen immediately made a phone call and told the team's general manager that Bunch Wells didn't want a few people who were clamoring for a raise, and now he just traded them, and it was best to trade them for some draft picks, but they had to be high draft picks.
Portland's side is completely confused, and the owner rarely meddles in the team's affairs. It seems that he has forgotten the existence of Paul Allen, and Paul Allen also said below that Chikos and the team's doctor can leave, and as for his own performance, he will have to perform next.
Then Paul Allen hung up the phone directly. The president of the Trailblazers was scared at this time, and the team's doctor came over heartlessly at this time, "Hey, Jerry, hurry up and call the boss, our side of the fund is not enough." "These team doctors have been with the Trail Blazers for several years. In fact, their skills are not as high-end as they boast, according to Pippen's words, they are a few dry meals.
But they have a very good relationship with the president, as if they were wearing a pair of pants. So no matter how much the players have grudges against them, they can't say much, not even for a star like Rasheed Wallace.
"Funding? ****** you still dare to ask me for funds? The boss just called and said you guys can fuck me off. It's all you, and Lao Tzu's job will be lost. The mood of the president of the Pioneers at this time can really be described as sad and angry, and the veterinarians are completely confused.
At this time, Bunch Wells and Derek Anderson came to the general manager's office side by side, "President." You told your boss no, we're going to get a raise. Otherwise, we wouldn't be in Portland. Bunch Wells started blackmailing the other again.
A document was passed from the fax machine in the office, and the president took it out and threw it in front of the two Wells, "Okay, if you have the ability, let's go, look at this document, you two have been put on the shelf." The boss is already angry, you just wait to be traded by me, and the boss said that if you can get a first-round pick, it doesn't matter if you are traded to a bad team. ”
Wells and Anderson took the file, which was the name of the trade. Almost all of the players on the team, except for Pippen and Rasheed Wallace, were put on the shelf, and this time it was really for real.
Wells and Anderson came to the players' rest area in a panic, and at this time Ruben Patterson walked over, "How about it, what did the president say, did he agree, without our team can't even make the playoffs." ”
Rasheed Wallace didn't speak on the side, although he is a bastard, but he really hopes that the team can develop in a good direction, although the team is still in the playoff queue, but this kind of team atmosphere, I really don't like it.
The two did not speak, but handed the document to Ruben Patterson, who was shocked to see that he had been put on the shelf, and Rasheed Wallace also glanced at it, and couldn't help laughing in his heart, this time they were finally punished as they deserved.
"What's wrong with you, your face is so ugly." Chikos staggered over, and you didn't need to look at it to know that it was too drunk. I'm used to it anyway.
Rasheed Wallace showed a gloating smile, he took the document and handed it to the other party, "Mr. coach, I'm sorry to tell you that you were fired, and from now on you will no longer be the head coach of the Trail Blazers, God has finally opened his eyes, hahahahaha." ”
Chikos's drunkenness had completely woken up at this time, and he took the piece of paper, which did have his name on it, but why was this, why did the boss change his mind so quickly.
Chicos rushed into the president's office in disbelief, "Jerry, what the hell is going on. Why was I fired. ”
President Jerry looked at Chicos like an idiot, "Why did you get fired?" Hehe, look at what the Trail Blazers have become of you, you have trained several Wells into League war criminals by cronyism, and you still ask why you were fired, you better pack up your things and get out. I don't want to see you all the shit anymore. ”
Chicos left the president's office gloomily, and then left Portland, along with the veterinarians.
And the trade is going well, the Denver Nuggets and the Cleveland Cavaliers are both interested in a few people on the shelf, and they are willing to trade their draft picks, after all, although this year is a big year, it is certain that these people can really play.
Eventually, the deal was completed with Cleveland and Denver, and the only two draft picks they had in their hands fell into the pocket of the Trail Blazers, while several experts from the Cologne Sports Academy contacted by Nie Huan also arrived in Portland, along with head coach Paul Westfale.
Portland's entire team has suffered serious damage after such a toss, but Paul Allen doesn't care, anyway, as long as the team develops normally, there is no notoriety.
In this trade, Portland has obtained a lot of draft picks, and at the same time, it is constantly replenishing players, Billups and Arenas have also arrived, the team's backcourt is guaranteed, plus the old and strong Pippen, and the twin towers on the inside, the Trail Blazers still have the power to fight this season.
No one would know that it would be a football player who caused this storm, and Nie Huan had already left the United States at this time.
Paul Allen is still very happy to see the team's new lineup, and Jerry West is also enthusiastic, and finally joined the Trail Blazers in the middle of the season, which makes many league teams smell the slightest danger, Jerry West did not show strength in the Grizzlies, it is completely a matter of financial resources, but the current Trail Blazers are different, Paul Allen has money. This is what attracts me the most, in the Lakers are used to living a big life, in the Grizzlies shrinking back, I really feel unaccustomed.
Now the rest of the Trail Blazers' lineup are players who are worth cultivating in Nie Huan's previous life, plus multiple draft picks in his hand, the future Trail Blazers are definitely worth looking forward to, and the salary cap of the team dropped all of a sudden. Arenas' contract may be an issue, though, but let's take it one step at a time. The current pioneer is at least much better than his previous life. (To be continued.) )
