Chapter 239: Draft Vision
"Uncle? Which uncle am I? ”
Wang Dachun was a little confused. Does he have an uncle in the United States?
But Wang Dachun didn't know that Kevin Pritchard gasped after hearing his reply. Secretly said in my heart.
"How many uncles does the king have? Asking me that? Didn't he know that I was talking about our boss with the Trail Blazers? ”
Kevin Pritchard also thought that Wang Dachun had many uncles with the status of his boss. Hurry up and explain.
"Hehe, of course our boss, Mr. Paul Allen, wants to see you."
Kevin Pritchard's tone was more polite than before, of course, Wang Dachun didn't hear it.
"The boss wants to see me?"
He had long forgotten that he had called Uncle Paul Allen with Frank.
Of course, it's not clear why Kevin Pritchard said that?
But who his boss is, of course he himself knows.
Paul Allen, an American entrepreneur, founder and chairman of Vulcan Inc., and Bill Gates founded the predecessor of Microsoft Corporation.
He is one of the richest people in the world. In 2006, he was ranked sixth in Forbes magazine and owned about $22.7 billion in assets, of which $5 billion was Microsoft stock. He is also Chairman of Charter Communications, a shareholder of DreamWorks, and owns the NFL's Seattle Seahawks and the NBA's Portland Trail Blazers.
This is the information that Wang Dachun saw on the Internet. When Wang Dachun saw this, he was also intimidated by his boss's financial resources.
"That's rich, isn't it?"
Wang Dachun had not met his boss Paul Allen before.
Suddenly summoned, he certainly wanted to find out why his boss was looking for him.
"I don't know, the boss just said that he will come back to the Trail Blazers in half an hour and let you wait for him in the general manager's office!"
This is the reply from Mr. General Manager.
After talking to Kevin Plitchard on the phone. Wang Dachun continued to be a little confused.
But then Wang Dachun was not confused, because Frank's phone also called.
"I'm already in Portland, you'll be on your team in about 20 minutes, where are you now?"
"I'm in the team, but I'm going to the general manager's office soon! Go meet our boss sir. Wang Dachun replied.
"Then you wait a moment for me, let's go together?" Frank said.
"What are you going to do?" Wang Dachun asked.
"Of course, it's to meet your boss, and he wants to see you because of me." Frank explained.
"Because of you? Why? Wang Dachun asked.
"I'm going to ask him for this year's pick!" Frank said.
"You? You're not a Trail Blazers guy, why would you want a draft pick from our team? Wang Dachun asked.
“…… Of course, it's because of these rookies signed by our agency! Frank explained helplessly.
"Come on, you're too whimsical, aren't you? How is it possible to give draft picks to whomever they say. ”
Wang Dachun felt that Frank was simply whimsical.
Just how important draft picks really are to a team, he doesn't believe Frank doesn't know. How can it be given casually.
"You didn't figure out what I meant, I mean, I hope you use this year's picks to pick the players signed by our agency." Frank went on to explain.
“…… It's not very likely, is it? Such a request also seems a bit rude. ”
Wang Dachun disagreed with Frank's idea.
"I can't help it, these drafts signed this year are not ideal. There is a high chance of losing the election! If you really lose, it will be a big blow to the company, so I came up with this solution and begged your boss Paul Allen. "Frank said it bitterly.
"Then our boss agreed?"
In Wang Dachun's thoughts, their boss has actually come to the Trail Blazers, and if he wants to see Frank, the matter should have been finalized.
"Not quite yet. But you shouldn't have much of a problem pulling it up! Frank said.
"What does it have to do with me?"
Wang Dachun was inexplicable.
"Hehe, didn't you pick these drafts for me? I alone said it might not work, but with you, it shouldn't be a big problem.
After all, you just did a miracle in yesterday's game, and didn't you say that you have a good eye? You help me explain and analyze it, of course, you must pick the good ones. "Frank said it a little cheaply.
“………。” Wang Dachun was speechless.
He didn't expect to help Frank pick a few people. Why is there a follow-up development?
……
Trail Blazers General Manager's Office.
Kevin Pritchard is now red-faced. And he seemed very excited.
He didn't expect his boss to come here early, but it didn't matter.
Because he is very happy now, the reason for his happiness is that their boss praised him just now.
"Kevin, you've done a very good job, not only to make the Trail Blazers so big a change this year, but also to trade to the king, such a potential superstar, I'm very happy with your work!"
This is not a simple compliment. It is an affirmation of his work and recognition of his ability. This is also what he needs and wants the most.
After Kevin Pritchard was praised by his own boss. He just realized.
"How can the boss wait here for the king's arrival, I must inform the king to come over immediately."
So he took out his mobile phone and politely asked his boss for advice.
"No need, I'll fight." Paul Allen said.
Kevin Pritchard whispered.
"Oops, reckless! Thankfully, I asked. ”
When he came to see that the uncle and nephew were going to meet, it didn't seem appropriate for him to suddenly intervene.
But Kevin Pletchard didn't know that his boss didn't call Wang Dachun, and he didn't have Wang Dachun's phone, Paul Allen called Frank.
"Haha, yes, I'm already in the office, where are you, oh, you're together, I'll be waiting for you here."
Paul Allen hung up the phone and said to Kevin Pritchard.
"We don't need to worry, they should need a little more time, just take advantage of this time, I want to ask, what is your evaluation of the king?"
Paul Allen said this because Frank once told him that Wang Dachun seems to have a special experience in selecting players. The vision is also very good.
But as a businessman, he can't just listen to one side of the story, he needs to learn more about what he needs to know from his subordinates.
At this time, Kevin Plitchard was still lamenting that his boss took such good care of Wang, a junior.
Suddenly, I heard my boss ask myself. He's not stupid, of course he's going to boast to death.
"Diligent and studious, open-minded, gifted, capable, and .................. absolute leadership skills."
Kevin Pritchard said all the words he could in his head.
When Paul Allen heard this, he knew that there must be a lot of water mixed in it, but he didn't say much.
After Kevin Pritchard finished speaking, he asked again.
"What is Wang's vision for the draft?"
When Kevin Plitchard heard his boss ask him this, he didn't think about it and gave birth to his thumb directly.
"Exactly! Very accurate. ”
