Chapter 50 Basketball Promotion Plan
Three days later, the basketball park was officially opened, and many of the invited nobles and dignitaries and civilians attracted by the free snacks came, and the animal carts parked on the side of the road were almost blocking the road.
Lei Dong personally led the three city lords into the central arena.
Yes, in addition to the City Lord of Nahura and the Deputy City Lord of Karl, there is also a Deputy City Lord of Smith who is in charge of commerce. Lei Dong heard from Deputy City Lord Carl that it was because Deputy City Lord Smith felt that the two industries before Lei Dong had played a great role in promoting the commerce of Zhenshan City, so he also came to see Lei Dong by the way.
"Brother Lei Dong, is this what you call basketball?
Anne and Lori also followed, and after entering the arena, she saw an orange-red ball in the middle of the court and pointed to Lei Dong and asked.
"Hehe, this has to wait for little Anne to grow up before she can play, but little Anne can see how her brother plays now, and it will be much easier to learn in the future. β
Lei Dong teased little Lori for a while, and then complained to several city lords and went to change clothes, he is going to be the referee and commentator today.
Today's exhibition match Lei Dong arranged for the nobles and high-ranking officials to watch in the arena, while the civilians could only stay outside the stadium to watch the live broadcast of the magic light curtain.
Lei Dong divided the exhibition game into three stages, namely the first stage of dribbling, shooting and layup performances, the second stage of 3v3 half-court confrontation and the final 5v5 full-court confrontation.
Lei Dong personally served as the referee and commentator, and Qinglong Baihu was also arrested by him as an assistant referee.
"Distinguished leaders of Zhenshan City, good morning, citizens of the city. Today is the opening day of the basketball park established by the lottery shop, and thank you very much for your support. β
Lei Dong walked to the middle of the court with a magic megaphone and said.
"First of all, I would like to introduce you to the ball I have in my hand. It's called basketball, and it can be used to play a sport that is competitive, collective, spectatorial, fun and fitness. Let's take a look at the performances performed by our basketball players. β
As soon as Lei Dong's words fell, the twelve teenagers divided into three groups and dribbled the ball from three directions in the arena, and then they began to show the various movements they had practiced during this time. Lei Dong also began to introduce the rules and precautions of basketball to the audience when they were showing.
After Lei Dong introduced all the rules, he also took a ball to the court. When the players on the field saw that Lei Dong was coming, they all retreated to the sidelines, leaving the court to the boss.
"Bang. β
As soon as the thunderbolt came up, it was a tomahawk-style slam dunk, and not only the spectators were shocked, but even the twelve players were startled, they didn't think that basketball could be played like this.
This is a careful eye played by Ray, who did not teach these players to dunk in the first place, and the players did not dare to try this kind of action for fear of breaking the basket. Compared with the previous players' soft layups, the thunderous dunk is more domineering, changing the impression that basketball has just established in the hearts of these audiences.
Originally, there were still many viewers who were talking about this kind of movement, which seemed to be meaningless, but after a thunderous button, it was reversed in an instant, and the audience was basically shouting for another one.
After showing a few dunks in a row, the thunder returned to the commentary position.
"Guys, what I just showed is the most ornamental action dunk in basketball, which can also be called a slam dunk. Did you enjoy watching it?"
Lei Dong slightly drove the atmosphere of the audience, and then continued: "Next, please watch the 3-on-3 half-time match. β
It was already noon at the end of the exhibition game, and after the thunderbolt announced that the outside stadium would be accessible for a small entrance fee, many people ran to grab the stadium without even eating lunch.
Lei Dong invited the three city lords to lunch together.
"Boy Lei, you can do this, it's a novelty. β
Deputy City Lord Carl thought that Lei Dong was just another PokΓ©mon land-like thing, but he didn't expect it to be a brand-new sports and entertainment project, and the rules were very sound.
"Hey, Uncle Carl smiled. Isn't it that the people in Zhenshan City are too bored, so they think about something to come out. β
Lei Dong scratched his head and said with a smile.
"Haha, then you'll have to figure out a little more. In this way, our Zhenshan City will soon become a famous city on the Moteng Continent. β
The city lord of Nahura also said happily.
"Yes, this famous business in our town will become more and more prosperous. β
The three city lords took turns boasting about the thunder, which made him a little embarrassed.
"Brother Lei Dong, your dunk just now is so handsome. And why don't you play? Anne thinks you're playing a lot better than they do. β
Little Lori saw that the adults finished speaking before they came to Lei Dong's side, and Lei Dong once again played the role of a dad and waited for Little Lori to eat.
After the meal, Lei Dong chatted with the three city lords about the promotion of basketball, and he knew that it was obviously not possible to promote basketball to the entire Locke Empire alone.
Lei Dong plans to shape the sport of basketball into the symbol of Zhenshan City, and make Zhenshan City a basketball city.
Lei Dong came up with several ways to promote.
He had already heard that there was something called the Shadow Stone in this world. This thing is more convenient than the video camera in his previous life, as long as it is activated with fighting energy or mental power, it can be recorded and shown.
In the first step of promotion, he planned to record a few basketball games and let people take them to several important cities in the Rock Empire to be screened, and by the way, advertise the small store. It's not that he doesn't want to put it in every city, it's just that this photo stone is too expensive, and he can't buy a few pieces with his current net worth.
Next, Lei Dong also plans to hold a basketball tour of the Rock Empire, so that the twelve teenagers will bring basketball hoops to each city to perform, so that the people of the Rock Empire can understand this sport.
When basketball became popular in several cities, Lei Dong began to create a professional league to invite people from all over the world to compete.
He told the three city lords about this plan, and they agreed, but it also reminded Lei Dong of the difficulty of this plan.
"Lei boy, I think this plan of yours is good, but it requires a lot of spirit crystals. β
Carl was right. In this way, Smith, you can see how much remaining activity budget the City Lord's Mansion has, and use it to support Lei Dong's plan. After all, this is a good thing for Zhenshan City. β
"I know, I'll follow up when I get back. β
Lei Dong originally just wanted to talk to these city lords about his plan, but he didn't expect to get financial support.
