Soon after setting the date for the live TV broadcast, Barbara quickly sent invitations to Rehanna and Taylor Swift's agent.

Very quickly, Taylor Swift and Rihanna both sent back positive answers. They didn't mention the remuneration at all, but Barbara, from the perspective of a professional agent, still gave them 10% of the income...... Chic accounts for the remaining eighty percent.

When this sharing agreement came, the other party still did not have any objections. For Rihanna and Taylor Swift, as long as they can get close to Xiao Sa, no matter how much they can talk about, they just want to talk to Xiao Sa for a while, as for money...... They didn't mind at all.

After agreeing on the economy, Barbara confirmed one more thing with them...... Don't make anything maverick on the live broadcast, everyone is like an adult, everyone shows up in formal clothes for each other, and then tells the story of the matter as it is, and then seeks a reasonable solution! After the live broadcast, everyone should not have any objections on this issue.

Taylor Swift and Rihanna agreed to Barbara's conditions without any hesitation, and signed a contract in the form of words.

After getting the fax of the two-point contract, Barbara began to contact the major TV stations in the United States!

Barbara then pulled the negotiators from several TV stations into the same conference call, and after explaining the commercial value of the live broadcast, Barbara began an open bidding process, and the highest bidder won!

Barbara's hand is perfect enough. Not at all give them the right to communicate privately with each other. Nor do they give them time to bargain. Directly come up and bid on it, which makes them not even do a good job of the psychological reserve price.

Barbara looks like the one who pays the highest price.

Soon ESPN shouted a high price that they thought no one would follow...... Fifty million dollars for an hour of show time with Taylor Swift and Rihanna.

That's a lot to come up with, especially for a media outlet known for sports. This really shows their determination to win, after all, it all started with the ESPY Awards, so ESPN decided to let it all end on ESPN's show...... It's a good start and a good end. And, another important point is that the time Barbara gave coincided with the time decided by LeBron James on the live stream. And LeBron James's partner is T-NT, and ESPN doesn't want to miss it.

However, this is not a sporting event, and other TV stations are interested in it.

The head of CBS raised his hand easily after ESPN called out the bid code: "Sixty million!! ”

CBS believes they have enough to get the money back, and they are very confident in the ratings of this episode, after all, the popular base of this event is so deep that it is basically a national participation...... Just take the rights now, then make a notice, and wait until July 8th. It's sure to trigger a nationwide ratings upsurge, and CBS is confident that the ratings will reach the highest of the year!!

CBS is confident that it will recoup the $60 million investment. HBO, on the other hand, is more confident that, as a pay-TV station, they don't need the support of advertisers, but their subscriptions alone are enough to make them make a lot of money, and this event is bound to take HBO's reputation to the next level, so that more potential users can join the package...... It's a great opportunity to get the word out.

And in the previous iron cage war, HBO has already had a very good business cooperation with Xiao Wei.

Therefore, the person in charge of HBO directly shouted the price to 100 million dollars!

As soon as this price came out, the other bidding TV stations were dumbfounded, they didn't expect HBO to be so bold.

And Barbara also kindly reminded the head of HBO here: "The recording location of the show will be in New York, but your headquarters is in Los Angeles. However, if you are willing to come over, we can provide the venue to record this episode in the chic manor. ”

As soon as Barbara's words came out, it was tantamount to opening up the chic villa to the media.

HBO immediately felt that it was making a lot of money, and it was able to go into the chic manor to shoot, this is the first exposure of the chic manor, and this is another huge explosion!

At that moment, he agreed: "No problem, absolutely no problem, we will send a satellite vehicle to New York." ”

The head of HBO was overjoyed when he said this, he thought that no other TV station would ever offer a higher and more crazy price than himself, and he thought that there was no suspense about reaching a cooperation.

However, the unexpected happened.

It was ABC who completed the sniping, and their head was very direct in giving HBO a price that made HBO infuriate: $100 million and one million.

Isn't this a deliberate attempt to raise the bar?

Barbara is also aware of this problem, and she has not said the amount of each price increase before, so she gave ABC such a chance to raise the price.

"120 million dollars." HBO quickly fought back, and that was the limit of what the person in charge could do.

The person in charge of ABC gave a price of $121 million after asking for instructions over the phone.

ABC called and asked for instructions, and HBO called to ask for instructions, and he offered a price of $150 million!

When this price came out, the whole video conference was stunned, and it was a price that people couldn't help but marvel at...... It doesn't cost so much to shoot a super movie, can HBO recoup the cost?

"Okay, I won't add it, you win. I'm curious about how you can recoup this cost, though... Are you at HBO ready for a loss this year? The head of ABC said with a little provocation.

"You don't have to worry about this, welcome to HBO to watch this show."

Barbara reached a verbal agreement with HBO after making sure that no one had raised the price. The video conference was then terminated.

Shortly after the video conference. HBO sent the relevant contracts very efficiently. Barbara looked at it, made sure there was no problem, and then agreed to the contract, and asked them to send someone to sign it, so that they could announce it on TV.

The $150 million meeting was so easily finalized.

After Barbara reached a cooperation intention, she also curiously asked the person in charge of HBO, asking him why he was confident that he would recover the $550 million.

HBO's reply made Barbara feel like she was doing a loss-making business for the first time: "We have 30 million paying subscribers now, and we sell this show for 10 dollars alone, which is 300 million dollars, and of course not everyone can buy it." But according to the popularity of this matter, at least half of the people will buy it, so there is no problem in recovering the cost. At the same time, we will also spend at least $20 million on advertising on other TV stations, and we will use this opportunity to attract more paying users...... As long as we have a million new users on board, we won't lose money, and we definitely won't be the only number! Coupled with the subsequent copyright income, I think... We will only earn, not lose!! ”

HBO's reply made Barbara feel a little painful...... Alas! In the end, I still didn't squeeze out the last profit. Although 150 million is already a lot, why do you always feel lost?

At the same time that Barbara felt pain in her flesh. Xiao Sao is getting together with the four jackals, tigers and leopards in the training hall, and this is the last trial before the draft.

26 of the 30 teams in the league have sent people over, and the four of them, jackals, tigers and leopards, are now the favorites in the draft, after all, they are the closed disciples selected by Xiao Xian himself, with this identity, the attention will not fall anywhere!

And the arrival of Xiao Shi made the heads of these teams even more commotion, and it was clear that no one expected that the MVP of the Finals would appear here the day after the Finals.

As soon as Xiao Shi came, some general managers who had friendships came over automatically, and the first one was Popovich from San Antonio, who pulled Xiao Xiao for a while as soon as he came, and the conversation was very speculative. At the end of the conversation, Popovich couldn't help but say to Xiao Shi: "These four are all your disciples, which player do you think is suitable for our team's style of play?" ”

"Ray!" Xiao replied very sincerely: "He himself is very fond of St. Anthony, and his style of play should fit seamlessly with the Spurs." It's just that... The only tricky thing is that you don't seem to have a spot in the first round of lotto, and now he's in the lotto. ”

"That's just as well. However, I can trade. I think that Zhao is also very suitable for our team's style of play, and the way he shoots makes me think of you. There is also a running position...... It's amazing. Popovich was full of praise for Zhao Haodong.

And Xiao Shi shook his head: "He is indeed suitable for the Spurs' style of play, but the Spurs are not suitable for him." He's actually better suited to a team like the Lakers or Dallas. ”

When Popovich heard this, he nodded thoughtfully, and then said: "Then I'm going to snatch him even more, I can't let the Lakers and the Dallas Mavericks take him away." ”

Hearing this, Xiao laughed.

While the two were talking and laughing, Kupcheco walked over very awkwardly, he was also at Madison Garden last night, witnessed the team being swept away, and because there was still inspection work, so he did not return to Los Angeles with the team.

Originally, when he came to this training hall, he was still worried about what to do if he encountered Xiao Shao, after all, he is still the identity of a defeated general, but what... I can't help but say hello, and I don't seem to have a demeanor. But how embarrassing it is to say hello.

When Xiao Sao walked into the training hall, this embarrassment finally became a reality.

After hesitating for a long time, he still walked over, greeted Xiao Shi very gracefully, and congratulated him on winning the Finals MVP.

When he congratulated him like this, Xiao Xiao didn't know what to do...... You can't say congratulations on winning the overall runner-up, right?

And having said that, Popovich must be unhappy, because the Spurs were eliminated by the overall runner-up.

When Popovich saw Kupcheko coming, he walked away. He didn't want to get involved in the conversation between the two of them, and he knew with his thumb that Kupcheco had risked embarrassment and came over to talk to Xiao Sa about something, just to introduce Xiao Sage.

Sure enough, Kupcheco was after an awkward pleasantry. asked Xiao Sao about it.

The chic answer was simple: "If you can trade for a first-round pick." Then sign Zhao Haodong. He's going to enrich the Lakers' scoring options, and he's sure to have good chemistry with Kobe Bryant, and Kobe will love him. And if you don't have a first-round pick, then getting He Yahui is also a good option, and he has at least more potential than all your current point guards. ”

"What if... If you have these two players this season. Then, if the Knicks want to win the championship in this year's finals, they may need to play two more games. ”

Kupcheko thought carefully about Xiao Sa's suggestion, then nodded, and he told Xiao Sa, "I listened. ”

And Xiao replied to him: "Greg (Popovich) listened too." ”

This sentence immediately gave Kupcheco a huge sense of crisis...... Popovich's old fox is also eyeing these two good seedlings!!

That's it. He quickly left the gym and went to seek a trade, his only thought now was to make sure he won one of the two! He didn't have the slightest doubt about Xiao Sa's words, because he also knew these two players in depth, and it was indeed like what Xiao Shi said.

After Kupchiko left, the general manager or scouting director of other teams also kept coming over to greet Xiao and ask Xiao for inside information.

Xiao recommended the most talented Yin Guiwei to the Bobcats, Hornets, Pacers and Clippers, and obviously... Xiao Sa wants Yin Guiwei to go to these rebuilding teams to be the core.

Lei Jiayin only recommended it to Spurs.

Zhao Haodong and He Yahui recommended those strong teams, both of whom are very standard strong team layouts, or the best assistance!!

Spent an afternoon in the training hall. At the end of the day, my hands itched unbearably, because these four guys had a real fight.

The draft is less than five days away. This is the first dessert after the finals.

In the long offseason, there has to be something for fans who haven't watched a game to find a spiritual sustenance.

……

The next day, Xiao Shi traveled to Europe, starting with the United Kingdom, where he will build momentum for a number of brands...... There is no way to be someone's spokesperson and take other people's money, so you have to do something.

When Xiao Sa arrived in London, he immediately felt the warm welcome of the British people, Xiao Sa himself was a little intimidated, he didn't expect that he would have such a high popularity in a country like the United Kingdom, where football is supreme!

It's just that he soon discovered that the source of this popularity is not because of basketball itself, but because of those gossip scandals and movies on the sidelines.

On the European side, the dashing identity tends to be more of a legendary man than an NBA superstar.

After all... Basketball is really unpopular here, and Europeans don't like ball games that are played with their hands.

In the screams of all kinds of girls, the chic propaganda was formed. In the propaganda station after station, Xiao Sa saw the madness of the women of the corrupt country. On average, he receives at least twenty small notes per event, which are basically hints of phone numbers or appointments. And there are even more who ask for love through words.

In the interview sessions of these events, the host basically asked about the scandals he had with those Hollywood female stars, the iron cage war, and the movie questions, and he often said a word about the MVP of the finals he had just won!!

In this regard, Xiao Sao is particularly difficult, in the United States, people still regard themselves as basketball stars, and here they are directly legendary men!

Alas!!

A sigh.

Xiao Sa stayed in England for two days, and then he went to France, where Xiao Sa's treatment is basically the same as that of England, except that the French are more romantic, they have more notes, and there will be sexy women who come to the door of Xiao Sao's hotel, in order to have a hot cannon with Xiao Sa, the first place in North American female sexual fantasy objects!!

In this regard, Xiao Xiao's attitude is naturally to stay away, and he doesn't want to continue to have any lace in this matter...... After all, he is already a father!

Stayed in France for only one day and went to Italy!

Italian girls are sexy and hot, and at a press conference, there were even naked women who rushed in and asked for a kiss from Xiao Sa, and Xiao Sa was almost frightened. Hurriedly informed the organizer that the trip ended early, looking at those crazy female fans, Xiao Sa was really worried that he would be squeezed dry by these crazy women in this land!!

After a day in Italy, the plane headed for Germany.

By the time he arrived in Germany, the NBA Draft was in full swing at the Grand Theater at Madison Garden.

Xiao Shi watched part of the live broadcast on his mobile phone at the hotel.

This time, the draft was directly handled by Xiao Hua, and David Stern didn't know when he had taken a back seat...... Anyway, he didn't show up at the finals award ceremony.

Xiao Hua's ascension is now a sure thing. There is only one step left...... Remove the adverb of vice president.

The 2010 champion was finally taken away by John Wall, the star point guard at the University of Memphis was the first to take the stage to shake Xiao Hua's hand, and then excitedly went to the interview, his interview was decent, but when it came to who the idol was. In addition to Alan Iverson's name, Xiao Shi also heard his own name.

Xiao Xiao was stunned for a moment...... I actually became someone else's idol??

This took Xiao Dash by surprise.

The Wizards, who were the No. 1 picks, chose NCAA star point guard John Wall.

Soon, the Philadelphia 76ers, who held the second pick, made their choice, and they chose Evan Turner!! This choice made the scene in an uproar, and Xiao Sang was also a little surprised, he felt that the 76ers should choose an inside center, even if they didn't choose Yin Guiwei, choose DeMarcus Cousins or Favors!!

Evan Turner gave a very brief interview.

Then, the Nets made their choice to move from New Jersey to the Nets from Brooklyn eventually... I chose ............ Yin Guiwei!!

Tanhua!!

This rank is basically satisfied, and Yin Guiwei also smiled, he wore a hat and became the first person to walk on stage among the jackals, tigers and leopards, after he shook hands with Xiao Hua excitedly, and then went to be interviewed, he said a lot of thanks, thanks to his family, thanks to the Nets, thanks to the brothers, thanks to Barbara, and most importantly, thanks to Xiao Sa, in an interview with T-NT, he very directly showed that Xiao Shi gave him all this, and he treated Xiao Shi as a father!

Yin Guiwei's words made Xiao Sao almost faint...... It didn't matter if he was regarded as an idol by John Wall before, but now this thing still regards himself as a father, is this a death???

The Timberwolves, who were fourth with the pick, chose Favors.

The fifth-pick king chose Cousins, Cousins looked unhappy when he appeared in the interview room, and when Chatford asked, he said directly: "I will make the people who didn't choose me regret it, especially the Nets, they actually chose a Chinese kid instead of me!" Does he think that all Chinese players are dashing? Are all NBA general managers poisoned by a drug called chic? I'm not afraid of him, when I enter the alliance, the first thing I will do is to give him a fierce block!! ”

Cousins' T-NT hosts all opened their mouths wide...... This kid, how dare you say it!! Xiao Dash dares to offend, isn't he mixed up in this alliance??

………… (To be continued.) )
