Chapter 136: The fist is not long in vain
Sterling asked rhetorically, but McDonleavy still didn't understand Sterling's attitude at this time, he just pulled out the unhappiness in his stomach: "That's his own fault." Why didn't those reporters come and block me? Why don't you block the other fourteen players on the Clippers? Poop will seduce flies, and he is poop. We have to teach him a lesson, otherwise he will be even more disrespectful of discipline and do even more ridiculous things. β
When Sterling heard this, he still just smiled: "It's not a bad thing for young people to be amorous at all, at least it proves that their hormones are still normal, and the secretion of dopamine is also at its peak."
"It's a bad thing for the pros, too many talented people are degraded by overindulgence." Raheem Sterling insisted on his attitude.
Raheem Sterling disagreed, for him, he didn't care about the gloomy future, he only cared about money.
Relationships constructed with money are the strongest, and certainly in a sense, the least strong.
But by now, Sterling's favorite thing about all the Clippers players is scarcity, because only scarcity can bring him exposure and bring him a steady stream of money. Therefore, he has to stand up to the end, so he can forgive Xiao Shao for all the incorrectness.
"Okay, I already know your attitude about this matter." Sterling didn't want to continue with the more serious McDonleavy, but simply stated his own attitude: "However, I don't intend to punish him. On the contrary, I want to reward him. Because, this is not an unforgivable bad thing. β
Yes?
As soon as McDonleavy heard this, he was directly blindsided, and instead of punishing and making such bad news, he wanted to reward him? What is the rationale for this?
In the moment when Dunleavy couldn't understand, Sterling picked up the newspaper and handed it to him: "Look. This is the entertainment edition of the newspaper. When they refer to chic. Prefix added, Los Angeles Clippers player. And these, these, these, all of them are hype, hyping that Xiao is a player for the Clippers. Do you know? This has invisibly increased our visibility, at least to let many people who don't know about basketball know that there is still a team in Los Angeles. Call the Clippers. β
At this, Sterling paused excitedly and took a sip of water. He continued: "Do you know why the Lakers are called giants? It's because it's influential enough that those who don't watch basketball know about it. And our Clippers are far from the same. So, we need the support of this kind of entertainment media, and we need them to help us promote it. And now, Xiao Shi has appeared, and his scandal has driven our popularity. It's advertising at its best! This is the best publicity! You say, should we reward him? β
Sterling is all about the way. McDonleavy vaguely felt that Sterling's theory would not work, but subconsciously followed his thinking. It felt as if he had a point.
Raheem Sterling didn't give him time to react, continuing: "No news is worst news. Now that Xiao Sa has helped us make so much news, we should certainly thank him. Moreover, don't you see the current market appeal of Xiaoshi? Last night we had a 97.6 percent attendance! God, 97.6 percent, we haven't had this kind of attendance in more than a decade. And today we sold another batch of season tickets. Sponsor applications have also been submitted to the PR department, we used to beg sponsors to sponsor us, and now sponsors are begging us. What a wonderful thing it is! Praise God! β
Sterling's eyes lit up as he spoke, and he saw an innumerable amount of dollars coming in his way.
Seeing this, Dunleavy completely gave up his previous thoughts, he was a little disheartened, he felt that working with a money-addicted boss was really a painful thing. Because he can't move Xiao at all now, unless Xiao Shi's commercial value is compromised, the boss will always be on his side.
My God! I really want to quit!
Dunleavy looked up at the ceiling, and he felt the urge to roar. But after all, he suppressed it, because he knew that once he roared, then he would roll up and leave, and he would never receive a dime from this stingy boss again.
"Alright, you go get busy. If Xiao Xiao didn't make it, I would have paid for his next first-class ticket. Sterling said very generously.
Dunleavy was shocked by his words, this iron rooster was willing to buy a first-class ticket for Xiao Sage? Oh my God, he only travels in business class.
Through this incident, Dunleavy finally understood the value of Xiao in the eyes of his boss. It seems that this guy will not be able to be suppressed in the future, and it will be difficult for this guy to become a core!!
Dunleavy looked particularly helpless, he felt that he had lost to Xiao Shao.
In fact, he doesn't know when he regarded Xiao Xiao as a nasty opponent.
And Xiao Wan has always regarded him as his head coach.
Dunleavy talked to Sterling about something else, then got up and left Sterling's office, feeling lonely as he did.
At the same time, Xiao Dash is in the same mood. Because the reporters outside have never left, but he has to go to the team to report, if he doesn't go, he won't be able to catch the plane to the away game.
It's a matter of urgency.
He had called the Clippers' personnel manager countless times, and the manager on the other end was very gentle to reassure him, telling him not to worry, even if he couldn't catch up.
But Xiao Sa has never been a person who loves to be late, he is in a hurry!
After lunch, Xiao Sa didn't bother to pay attention to it anymore, and drove a car directly from the garage, and Barbara, Jennifer and others also got into their own cars and forced to leave under the leadership of Xiao Sla.
After holding the horn to break a path in the group of reporters, Xiao Shao rushed directly to the Clippers training hall, and Barbara and the others also walked away, each going their own way, so that the reporters didn't know which car to go with.
Xiao ran all the way to the training gym, and at this moment, the NBA official is also announcing the best player of the week. The best player in the East was won by LeBron James, and the best player in the West was picked by Kobe Bryant. After that, the official Rookie of the Week was also announced, and the best rookie in the East was Derrick Rose, who led the team to two games, one win and one loss, averaging 18.5 points, 5.5 assists and 4.5 rebounds per game, which is very comprehensive. And the best rookie in the West was awarded to Xiao Sa, who fell out of everyone's eyeballs. However, the dashing number jΓΉ made people speechless, leading the Clippers to win both games, and his personal count jΓΉ was also extremely eye-catching: 19.5 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 2 steals, and 3 blocks.
As soon as this award was announced, it immediately triggered a very large feedback.
Because in everyone's minds, the dashing limelight has been overshadowed by lace news, and no one would have thought that he would also become the rookie of the week, and he also overwhelmed a group of potential rookies, which made many people unhappy.
After all, in everyone's mind, he has always been a problem rookie who hasn't proven himself yet, and he's been making such a big bit of news lately. From the subjective will, everyone does not agree with him for this award, even if his numbers look flawless, his record is flawless.
But Xiao Sa himself didn't care about this, he just hurried to get rid of the reporters behind him, and then urgently drove into the garage of the training hall.
Xiao Xiao came to the training hall in a hurry, and before he could catch his breath, he heard a sneer: "Wow, our big star is finally here." The body looks very good. β
"How can you say that? People are very busy, and they have to go home to fight hand-to-hand after the game, and it's still one-on-two, which is very laborious. It would be nice to be able to wake up today! β
Xiao followed the voice, and Ricky Davis and Elsolton were sneering there.
The two hooked up shoulder to shoulder, and the wolf bèi was a traitor. I don't know when the alliance was formed.
"You two shut up." Byron Davis, as the leader, hurriedly stood up and glared at the two.
Seeing that the boss had spoken, Elthoton immediately did not speak again. Ricky Davis didn't give face to Byron Davis, he thinks he has more seniority than Byron Davis, after all, he was also the boss of the past, and he was the team leader before LeBron James went to the Cavaliers. So, he muttered and continued: "The whole world knows about it, don't you want us to say it?" If he does it, I will say it. β
Ricky Davis is going toe-to-toe, and he's clearly going head-to-head with Byron Davis.
Byron Davis was angry, but Xiao Shao smiled faintly, stepped forward, looked at Ricky Davis disdainfully and spoke: "Hehe, you're right." You're all that's left for your mouth, and you're coming so early every day because you can't satisfy your girlfriend at all. β
"Rookie, what did you say?" Ricky Davis was so sarcastically sneered, he immediately stepped forward, glared at Xiao Yat-tat, and clenched his fists: "I'm not Chris Kaman!" β
Ricky Davis is looking for a fight, trying to suppress Xiao in this way.
Xiao Shi faced him head-on, stared coldly into Ricky Davis's eyes, and repeated coldly: "I said, you only have your mouth left, you can only use your tongue to satisfy your woman." So you envy me, so you envy me. β
Chic eyes are cold, without the slightest emotion.
Suddenly, Ricky Davis seemed to see a beast.
He subconsciously felt that it was dangerous to be chic.
In fact, Xiao Xiao is very dangerous, he is a wolf cub, he has eaten wolf milk.
Although he had never killed anyone, he had fought countless beasts.
How could such a guy be afraid of provocations from Ricky Davis?
Xiao Xiao doesn't want to cause trouble, and he always welcomes people with a smile on weekdays.
It doesn't mean he's afraid.
Things are coming, if they can't be solved with harmony.
The fist is not long in vain.
