Yohei Mito had already found a store at the end of December.

Originally, I wanted to find near the key hall, but after looking around, the rent was too expensive, after all, it was the city center, about 200 square meters of shops, a month actually cost 60,000 US dollars, and the contract was signed for one year, and a high deposit had to be paid, counting the decoration, declaration, etc., the scale had to be at least 500,000 US dollars, but Yangping sold all the assets in Japan, but only got 200,000 US dollars, and had to consider the follow-up maintenance, operation and so on.

Lin Dong can invest, but Yangping didn't dare to make it so big as soon as he came up, so he finally found a two-story area of 300 square meters, close to the Flying Museum, and the rent was only more than 30,000 yuan, which was more suitable, and the money was still not enough.

Fortunately, after understanding, Lin Dong invested 1/3, Sakuragi invested 1/3, the two together accounted for 49% of the equity of the new store, and the remaining 51% of the equity was Yangping, after all, it was still a technology stock.

The Sakuragi Army has been busy with this recently, busy with renovations and running shops, and apart from coming to see the supersonic home games, they can't go to the away games anymore.

And in mid-January, the appeal case of my mother's side and Fuyao being bound together at the same time also came out in the first instance.

The result was an unsurprising defeat.

Lin Dong was not surprised by this, according to the trajectory of another world, it would take four or five years for Fuyao to win this lawsuit, which would be a long tug-of-war process.

When the SuperSonics went to Texas to play with the Spurs, Mavericks, and Rockets, my mother went to the scene, after all, the distance was close, and the home court of the SuperSonics had only been there once in the past two months, after losing the case at that time.

The person looks like he has lost a lot of weight, and his mental state seems to be in a kind of tension, as if he is already preparing materials for the second prosecution, but his heart and expectation of winning seem to be not as good as the last time, and he feels a little frustrated.

I came to Seattle purely to relax and draw a little spiritual strength from my son.

Frankly speaking, Lin Dong really feels sorry for this old mother.

Aside from the identity of the mother and the kindness to herself, independent and strong women certainly exude infinite domineering at all times, making men dare not approach, but when they are in trouble, they are always easier than ordinary women to make men want to protect.

After all, to see the weak side of a strong woman is something that attracts your attention even more.

But in this matter, Lin Dong really has no ability to help.

Winning this lawsuit with Fuyao, the final reward is incomparably rich, but the suffering of the past few years is destined to be difficult.

Unless he can reach the height of Jordan, then he can give his mother some public opinion and economic support.

…………

These are just family matters, and by the beginning of February, a phone call from the Dragon Kingdom will become a big deal for the whole team.

Schulz is in big trouble in the Dragon Kingdom.

It couldn't wait to expand, with 75 stores in more than 30 cities of all sizes in the Dragon Kingdom, and began to renovate almost at the same time, but a series of problems began to appear.

There were more than a dozen accidents caused by the rush of the renovation process, such as chainsaws and falling from the second floor, and there were no dead people, but the injured family members made a lot of trouble.

After all, these days, we all know that foreigners have a lot of money, and they will always give it when they make trouble.

Schulz was willing to give money, and losing some money was just a trivial matter, but the problem was that he didn't understand the national situation of the Dragon Kingdom, and he lost money too quickly, and he was anxious to calm things down, so a series of troubles were brought out.

The family members who received the compensation continued to make trouble, and the local government departments felt that the impact of the trouble was not good, and they were also quite dissatisfied with Schultz, so the industry and commerce came to check your safety by the neck and the fire department for three days...... And the local benefits of those stores that have been opened are far less than Schulz's expectations, not to mention compared with the two most successful stores in Yanjing and Lin'an, most of them are beyond their means.

In addition to these small problems, it seems that Schultz wants to be listed in Xiangjiang, so he has to make profit statements and other issues when the stores have just opened and are losing money in an all-round way, but they are not very clear about the details.

However, Schulz is indeed raising a lot of money, and the supersonic team's book sales of tickets and the little money around him are about to be drained by him to find excuses, in short, the funding gap must be not small.

The team has been a little panicked recently, this boss won't go bankrupt, right? MD, can you still pay your salary next year?

And the result of people's panic is that the supersonic team has suffered a wave of two consecutive defeats for the first time since 21 consecutive wins.

And what is more depressing than these two consecutive defeats is that Payton is injured.

It was a game against the Portland Trail Blazers, and at the end of the second quarter, Payton led the team, and Payton, who had made it inside, collided with Rasheed Wallace.

roaring at Tianzun's iron-beaten body, and at the peak of 28 years old, Payton's old arms and legs are really unbearable, with a slight bone crack in his right knee, although it is not to the extent of season reimbursement, but at least he will miss at least twenty or more games, and it is estimated that he can only catch up with the playoffs.

Moreover, such a veteran, even if he recovers, how much combat power will he have left after returning to the arena is a huge question mark.

The internal atmosphere of the team, which was already a bit of a panic, was missing Payton......

The eyes of the entire league began to focus on the supersonic again.

Does the young man who now firmly dominates the regular season scoring title as a rookie still have the ability to continue to be a dark horse with supersonics?

Judging from the second place in the West by the SuperSonics, it is definitely no problem to enter the playoffs, but in the remaining 30 games of this season, what kind of report card can Lin Dong deliver?

All sides of the alliance are looking forward to this......

Of course, the teams hope that Lin Dong will go shopping.

Young people, strong-blooded, energetic, and rookie season, some are hard-working, and now they have a chance to lead the team alone, so they have to work hard to show themselves?

By the time they enter the playoffs, the headache-inducing superSonics will inevitably be a tired team.

For the league, it is a popular rookie in the United States today, and leading the team alone is more eye-catching, as long as it can capture the audience and expand the influence of the NBA, then it can be done no matter what.

It's a pity that Lin Dong did not show the state of 'fighting chicken blood' that they expected.

is still a tepid attitude, averaging more than 30 points and more than a dozen assists per game, although the playing time has improved to a certain extent compared to before, but it is only about 30 minutes per game.

The overall winning rate of supersonic speed is okay, and the characteristics of running and bombing are destined to rarely overturn when they play weak teams, and when they play some strong teams, there is one less main rotation, and Lin Dong is not very desperate, so he naturally loses when he deserves to lose.

The winning rate has dropped to a certain extent, about 65%, but the West itself is more competitive, the first few teams have won about the same, and the SuperSonics has only dropped one place to third in the West.

The teams are a little confused.

Is this kid really a young man? Doesn't this kid have passion?

But in fact......

On the one hand, Lin Dong is really tired.

Stephen's new physical training plan is very rigorous and intense, and this level of training should have been placed in the offseason, but Lin Dong is not going to wait.

The playoffs are imminent, and after learning the defensive intensity of the Pistons in the playoffs, Lin Dong knows very well that if he wants to make a name for himself in this year's playoffs, he must first train his body, otherwise the scene of the Pistons battle will continue to repeat itself in the playoffs.

This also led to the fact that the physical fitness and energy during the game were a little unable to keep up, and 80% of the normal combat power was a balance that Lin Dong could barely maintain now.

According to the current number of wins of the supersonic and the arrangement of the opponents in the remaining twenty or thirty games, there are relatively many weak teams, even if the supersonic team relaxes a little and lets go of some tough battles, it can still enter the playoffs with the top four records in the west, as long as the results are controlled in this segment and the first round of the playoffs is easier, Lin Dong feels that it is actually enough.

On the other hand, I mainly want to train the other newcomers in the team.

Sakuragi Hanamichi has been making rapid progress recently, and after the battle with the Cavaliers, it seems to have opened up his second vein, not only the cooperation with the team has begun to be like a fish in water, but also the rebounding ability is increasing day by day, the only thing lacking is just a lot of high-level practical experience.

In addition to him, Chandler, Iguodala, Watson and others also need a lot of playing time to hone their abilities.

SuperSonics' current tactics, individual abilities and other aspects are actually quite good, but the team is too young, and the ability to play tough battles may not be enough, if you don't take advantage of the regular season to train quickly, then when the playoffs need high-intensity rotation, these people can't play, and then it's too late to regret it......

By the end of March, this year's regular season was coming to an end, and Lin Dong also stopped physical training and began to recover in a gloomy manner.

Now that there are only seven or eight games left for the teams on both sides of the East and West, the big picture is basically decided.

The competition for the top two spots in the East is quite fierce, and the Pistons and Cavaliers don't want to give each other.

After that battle with the SuperSonics, under the strong appeal of Ohio fans, LeBron finally sat on the starting lineup of the Cavaliers, and after a few short adjustments, the Janway connection completely replaced the previous cooperation between Davis and Wade, and became the most talked about and popular sign of the Cavaliers today.

The two combined for 45 points per game throughout the regular season, which has surpassed the OK combination and brought the Cavaliers back to the first place in the East.

The Pistons relied on a strong defense to surpass the Cavaliers twice, but were overtaken twice, and are currently in second place in the East.

The Wizards, the biggest favorites before the game, were in third place, and were five wins short of the second-place Pistons.

Jordan played health basketball, averaging 21 points per game, which was covered by Da Yao's gorgeous data of 26.6 points per game and 15 rebounds.

Jokes can be joked, for those who really know Jordan, they can fully feel the turbulent waves brewing under the 'loose' performance of this basketball god.

This old guy is holding back...... After all, it's not a good deal for him to go to the regular season anymore because he has great intentions and ambitions for this year's playoffs.
