Min Congda vented to David Stern and felt much more comfortable after hanging up the phone.

Although it doesn't change the unfortunate fact that the opponent always has a big general absent, at least the emotions have been expressed.

Min Congda didn't call Stern to change anything, he just wanted to find someone to scold and vent his anger.

Generally, when company leaders are angry, they are looking for their subordinates to be angry, but Min Congda is different, he is angry with the big boss above him.

"Whew, comfort, I will scold Stern when I get angry in the future, I feel very comfortable. If I scold him in a hurry, I will be even happier if I am punished with some money. ”

The depression in my heart dissipated a little, but the night game was still to be played, and the reality of the Grizzlies' lack of major generals could not be changed.

At half past seven in the evening, during the Clippers' game against the Grizzlies, Blake Griffin appeared on the sidelines of the Grizzlies bench in a suit.

The talented Oklahoma power forward, who was full of ambition this summer, has experienced many twists and turns in his life in just half a year.

There was a little more sadness on his originally cheerful face, and the TV camera kept giving him, reminding the audience that he had no part with the Clippers.

On the other side, on the Clippers bench, Curry warmed up on the court in a tracksuit, and Curry played decently in recent games.

Except for the goal at the critical moment, he played quite conservatively as a substitute and did not play too impressively.

But Curry knows a lot about himself, and he's moving forward one step at a time.

Insist on strength training, weight gain, confrontation, three-point shooting, and watch video summaries after the game every day.

Mike Dunleavy has a high demand for Curry, asking him to memorize all of the team's tactical routines.

Of course, the outside world has not stopped questioning him, and the performance of averaging less than 10 points and 3 assists per game in six games is still not enough for a champion show.

He needs more time and a performance to prove himself.

On the sidelines, Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace sat next to Min Congda.

Summer League farewell, this is the second meeting between the two.

After a series of events, Wallace's respect for Min Congda deepened.

He's sure this is a very remarkably talented general manager, comparable to the great guys like Larry Bird and Pat Riley.

It's only been a few months, and he's almost surpassed James in the sports headlines the number of times.

He kept getting close to Min Congda and exchanging ideas and experiences on team management.

"Stamps' attendance seems to be good, what was the attendance for today's game?"

"More than 80 percent, right? It's a real headache. ”

As soon as Min Congda heard Wallace talk about attendance, he felt a pain in his temples.

Why are these fans so bored, buy bulk tickets to come in and watch the game between the Clippers and Grizzlies.

What's so nice about rookies pecking each other? According to the figures just reported by Ada, the attendance tonight is 16,221.

With an 85 percent attendance rate and rising ticket prices, the show grossed nearly $900,000.

Wallace heard Min Congda say "headache", thinking that you have more than 80% of the box office, do you still have a headache?

I really have a headache!

was expecting Griffin to pull the Grizzlies' box office, but the preseason was reimbursed.

The Grizzlies' two home games in October, with the exception of the opener with 90 percent attendance, plummeted in the next one.

It's down to 55% of the occupancy, and almost half of the seats are occupied, not counting the season tickets that didn't come.

The Grizzlies haven't played their home stadium in November, but judging by the pre-sale, the box office will be very unsatisfactory.

The Grizzlies originally tried to boost the box office by signing Allen Iverson, but the Pistons have verified that the Grizzlies are just trying and making mistakes again.

Iverson is already having a hard time surviving in this league and is unable to accept being a substitute because of his character.

Iverson didn't come to Los Angeles with the team this time, and the Grizzlies are ready to terminate his contract.

Wallace asked Min Congda, "Smart, do you have any secret to selling tickets?" How is it marketed? ”

Min Congda said: "The secret of sales? Add money! Be sure to add money! ”

Wallace was stunned for a moment and said, "What? Add money? Have your fares gone up? ”

Min Congda nodded, "Of course, it went up by 10 points, I originally wanted to go up by 30 points, that... If you don't agree, forget it. ”

Wallace was surprised that all but a few teams in the league could not sell tickets right now.

In order to sell tickets, the teams racked their brains, reduced the price and discounted it, bought one get one free, bought tickets and gave gifts, and increased stadium activities.

The clothes of the cheerleading women's basketball team on the scene are getting less and less, if there are no rules, I can't wait to jump the strip show directly to attract fans.

The Clippers were able to buck the trend and add money, what kind of fairy operation is this?

Now the only people in the league dare to do this, the Lakers, with an average ticket price of more than $100.

The venue is full, and you can only buy tickets with extra money, because they have Kobe Bryant, who is the defending champion.

Wallace cautiously asked Min Congda, "Smart, what kind of marketing is this?" Can you sell more tickets with extra money? ”

Min Congda sighed, he didn't add money to sell more tickets, but in the current situation, if the discount promotion might sell more, then it was better to add money.

He rolled his eyes, coaxed Wallace, and said, "Do you know that some people who sell cars in China will sell cars at a higher price." If you put it on a discount, no one will come to buy it, and if you add money to line up, there will be a lot of people who buy it. ”

When Wallace heard this, didn't this mean starvation marketing, and said: "This is illegal in the United States, there is a special bill prohibiting private price increases, and if you are caught, you will be fined a lot of money." ”

When Min Congda heard about it, there was such a thing? Fortunately, our fare plus money is directly written on the website and on the ticket, not privately, and it is not illegal.

Since he couldn't coax Wallace, Min Congda didn't talk nonsense, just as the game was about to start, and the topic ended.

Wallace thought to himself, "This is someone's marketing secret, how can you tell me?" I guess Smart should have carefully created a public opinion plan from the beginning of the draft to select Curry in the draft, and the Clippers will continue to heat up. Smart's various operations, salary increases for employees, documentaries, and racial discrimination incidents are all in his plan. ”

"Now that the Clippers are a hot team in the league, they beat the Lakers in the opener, and they are popular, how can tickets not be sold? Adding money can stimulate consumption and increase income. ”

"This Smart Min is really scheming, every step is in his calculations! He's horrible. ”

Wallace looked at Min Congda, who was sitting next to him with a frown, and felt more and more the depth and horror of this Chinese manager.

And the reason why Min Congda's brows are tightly knit is very simple, the Clippers took the lead again at the beginning!

The Clippers are now opening with a three-board axe, Randolph playing, Randolph playing Carman, Carman playing, and Carman beating Gordon.

Randolph, who broke out in the last game, suffered from the Grizzlies' focus on this game and did not feel good.

However, Chris Carman faced the immature Gasol Jr. and turned into White Duncan to take what he wanted under the basket.

Watching Carman's wonderful performance, the Clippers led all the way at the beginning of the first half, allowing Min Congda to cover his face.

And Wallace saw Kaman's all-round performance, and Gasol Jr. looked very weak in front of him, and sighed:

"Chris Carman, he's a very good player, it's like White Duncan."

Min Congda raised his head and said, "You want it, you want me to trade it to you." ”

Wallace smiled and said, "What are you kidding, he might be an All-Star this year." ”

Min Congda thought, it's because he can be an All-Star that I want to trade it to you!

"I'm not kidding, if you want this player one day, you can trade it to you, call me then."

Min Congda said it lightly, Wallace always felt that there was fraud in it, but what fraud could there be?

Once again, he had the feeling of being crushed by his IQ, and it was terrible, terrible.
