NBA Dynasty Sniper

Chapter 197: Lindsay wants to buy the Knicks

"NBA Dynasty Sniper (

The next morning, Zhao Dong went to the Feilong Sporting Goods Company.

The company’s address is in Chaoyang District. He has already bought, in his own name, a Huayang Building that has just been built for a year and is just being decorated. It has 15 floors, each floor is 3,200 square meters, and it cost 320 million yuan. .

The ground floor of the building is a commercial shop, which has already been rented out. Half of the remaining floors have been rented out. The remaining half of the floors are empty. Zhao Dong is not going to rent it out.

Feilong Sporting Goods Company, and the upcoming China Dragon Venture Capital Company, have settled in Huayang Building. There is enough space and area here, and then Dongcheng Club will move here.

When he came to the top floor, there was no other office at this time, it belonged to his own unique space.

He found a conference room and took out all the technical paper materials of sneakers from the system space. There were 8,200 technical materials, and the 150-square-meter conference room was piled all over the floor.

"Where did this come from?"

Chen Jian was called up and was dumbfounded when he saw the information.

"I bought a research institute. There are a total of 8,200 basketball shoe technologies, all of which are patentable high-end technologies and have reached the world’s top level. You ask the R&D department to sort them out as soon as possible, apply for patents immediately, and then do A value assessment." Zhao Dongdao.

"Okay."

There was some disbelief in his heart, but Chen Jian still nodded.

But a day later, he had to believe it, because the R&D department was going crazy.

The R&D department he has just established is mostly European and American professionals, and the level is good. Everyone told him that these technologies are the top technologies, and even far surpass the top technologies in the world.

Zhao Dong didn't care about this, and only let the Security Department keep an eye on the information.

The security department he set up is all retired soldiers or armed police, with a total of 30 people, and there is absolutely no problem with the sense of responsibility.

In addition, he is setting up China Dragon Ventures, and through the recommendation of a headhunting company, he hired a general manager named Wang Xin.

Wang Xin, a 40-year-old master student in the Department of Economics and Management of Fudan University, was originally a director of the Shanghai Investment Promotion Bureau. company.

This venture capital company has a registered capital of 1 billion RMB, with Zhao Dong investing 800 million and Lindsay investing 200 million.

"Mr. Wang, does NetEase know?"

After the company was formed, Zhao Dong gave Wang Xin the first venture capital project.

"Netease? Dong Zhao, is it too risky to invest in these Internet companies now?" Wang channel.

"Venture investment, risking means high returns. There is no risk, but how can there be high returns? I am optimistic about the founder of this company. I do risk. I don't invest in a company. I invest in this person." Zhao Dong smiled.

"Well, I happen to know that NetEase's funds are now very tight and are seeking the next round of financing. I will contact them immediately." Wang Datong.

"Please pay attention, this is the principle. We do venture capital, just invest and don't interfere with the operation of the enterprise." Zhao Dong said.

"Okay, I see." Wang channeled.

"You can get as many shares as you can get." Zhao Dong exhorted.

Wang Xin is a little worried, will this be too risky? But the boss's words, he is also unable to object.

Zhao Dong didn't care about the next thing. He took Lindsay to play everywhere.

On August 24, Wang Xin brought an assistant to Guangzhou and met Ding Lei, the creator of NetEase.

One wants to raise money, and the other wants to invest. It hits it off. It only took ten minutes to negotiate a deal.

Ding Lei originally only wanted ten million, but Wang Xin directly gave thirty million, which made him very happy.

The company has just been established, and he himself has no confidence that the company will survive. How can he be unhappy when such a generous financier appears at this time?

Wang Xin called from Guangzhou to inform Zhao Dong that he had obtained 45% of the voting shares of NetEase with 30 million yuan, and had priority in the next round of financing.

"Good job." Zhao Dong praised it.

Netease's development is still quite smooth, and with his funds, it will surely develop more smoothly.

However, NetEase will be listed in the United States on June 30, 2000, and the sky market price has reached 15 US dollars, but NetEase’s luck also ends here, because the Nasdaq bubble burst, and the three-year bull market turned into In the thirty-month-long bear market, NetEase's shares fell to a minimum of 0.48 U.S. dollars, and the entire company was worth only 20 million U.S. dollars.

But the bad luck was not over. In 2001, NetEase was suspected of accounting fraud and was suspended. Ding Lei wanted to sell NetEase, but no one dared to take the offer.

NetEase's listing in the United States is actually driven by foreign capital, because only when it is listed in the United States can the benefits be maximized.

But now that he invests in NetEase, the influence of foreign capital can be minimized.

In late September, Zhao Dong and Lindsay made a trip to China and returned to Beijing from Xi'an.

During this period of time, Zhao Dong spent some money to buy some high-end courtyards, all of which were the old princes Baylor's mansion, at least they were all four or five large courtyards, and it didn't cost much anyway.

At the end of the month, Dorissa and his wife came to Beijing from Switzerland.

The engagement ceremony for the two was scheduled for September 28th. Because of respect for Lindsay’s belief, it was held in a church in Beijing.

Those who participated in the ceremony were basically Zhao Dong's relatives and friends. He also invited Liu Yumin, teammates from the national team, and several company executives.

In addition, the Knicks management also sent general manager Neil Grant, along with boss James Dawlan.

Agents Wells and Oakley, Larry Johnson and Alan Houston also rushed to Beijing to participate in the ceremony.

On Lindsay's side, it was Dorisa and his wife, and there was no one else.

The two got engaged and the wedding was on the agenda.

However, Lindsay is only nineteen years old and cannot get a marriage certificate in China, so he has to get married abroad.

After the two people discussed it, it didn't take long to get married at the All-Star Weekend. It happened that Zhao Dong had time and didn't need to ask for leave.

As the time enters October, Zhao Dong and Lindsay are also preparing to set off for the United States.

"Mom, don't save money at home, your son I have more money. If you miss me, I will buy a plane ticket to the U.S., and I will get all the passports for you. Anyway, you have to go to get married, you know?"

"You know, Dongdong, be nice to the girl, don't be wronged."

"How can it be?"

On the 3rd, after finishing the luggage, Zhao Dong and the two are ready to leave, mother Li Meizhu wiped tears.

"Brother, leave the house to you, take care of grandparents."

"Do not worry."

"No, brother, where is the sister-in-law you found for me? I haven't seen it for a few months since I've been back here!"

"Hey, I'm not in a hurry. Why are you anxious? I'm still young."

At eight o'clock in the evening of October 3rd, US time, Zhao Dong and Lindsay arrived in New York.

"Linger, find me a top-floor mansion, the kind with a swimming pool and helipad."

When Wells came to pick up the plane, he was taken aback by Zhao Dong's words.

"Flying dragon, such a mansion is worth tens of millions of dollars, and it is more valuable than the Nix. How much money did you make in the foreign exchange market?" He was stunned.

"Haha, look for it. I said that I would give Avel a top-floor mansion, so I can't break my promise." Zhao Dong smiled.

Wells glanced at Lindsay next to Zhao Dong, who laughed and said, "Mr. Wells, would you do me a favor too?"

"You said, Miss Lindsay." Wells hurriedly said.

"I want to buy an NBA team and give it to the Flying Dragons. Or, the Knicks? Of course the Lakers can also. I want a big team, not a small team." Lindsay laughed.

"Ahem..."

Wells almost choked to death by himself.

"Ha ha…"

Zhao Dong shook Lindsay's hand and laughed.

During this period of time, his funds have reaped a huge profit in the Asian financial market, 800 million US dollars, this time has rolled to 2.7 billion US dollars.

Even Lindsay has made nearly one billion dollars in huge profits from the Asian financial turmoil. It is nothing to buy an NBA team, and the current team is not worth much at all.

And this wave of huge profits in Asia is not over yet, and the storm between Japan and South Korea has just begun.

"Where do I go to buy a big team?" Wells said with a wry smile.

"Is the bulls sold? Mr. Wells, you can go and find out. If the deal is made, I will give you a commission. The bid can be generous, and the most important thing is the team." Lindsay said.

"Bull?" Wells felt strange.

If the Bulls owner really goes crazy and sells the team to Miss Lindsay, I don't know what Jordan will look like when he knows it?

"Miss Lindsay, it may be difficult. There are only a few big teams. We missed the best chance to get the Knicks." Wells said helplessly.

"You can try, the first acquisition target is the Knicks." Lindsay laughed.

Wells nodded with a wry smile, thought about it, and said, "Can other league teams?"

"NFL?"

Lindsay's eyes lit up and she knew that Zhao Dong also liked football.

"Flying dragon, okay?"

She tilted her head and looked at Zhao Dong and asked.

"Okay, as long as you are happy." Zhao Dong smiled.

The two wanted to give each other gifts, but they were actually the happiest.

"Um."

Lindsay nodded and said to Wells: "It's best to be an NBA team. If it doesn't work, the NFL team can also do it. But also big teams in big cities. The market is better."

"no problem."

Wells laughed.

After returning to New York, Zhao Dong went to the team to find out about the situation.

He is just doing it. After all, he is the boss of the team and can't help but care about the new season's lineup.

When I came to Grant's office, Old Nelson was there, and the three chatted.

"Where is Jeff?" he asked casually.

"Flying dragon, Jeff led the team to play in the preseason. Marcus Camby, who was just traded in, and rookie Danny Fordson are all gone." Old Nelson said.

"How is our lineup?" Zhao Dongdao.

"Look at it."

Grant took out a list and handed it over.

Zhao Dong took it and saw that there was no major change.

Oakley, Larry Johnson, Alan Houston, John Starks, Charlie Ward, Chris Childs, Buck Williams, Herb Williams, this is the player from last season, plus him a total of nine .

Marcus Camby, Danny Fordson, Pete Meyers, Brooks Thompson, Ben Davis, Anthony Bowie, these are newcomers, a total of six people.

"Are there contracts?" Zhao Dong asked.

"No, the newcomers behind, except Camby and Fortson, have no contracts yet." Grant explained.

"How are these people?" Zhao Dong asked.

Grant said in a bit embarrassing manner: "It turns out that I wanted to trade Buck Williams and Herb Williams, as well as Childs and Charlie Ward, to change a first-class point guard in, and then pick a good small forward. It's a pity. The transaction was not successful."

"These four people are veterans who are about to retire. They are cheap." Old Nelson turned his head and pointed to the last four names.

When he said this, Grant became more embarrassed.

"Is the boss not willing to invest?" Zhao Dong asked.

He actually knew that James Dawlan was not such a person. In his previous life, after Jordan retired next season, Dawlan threw 150 million yuan to build a junk lineup. Then, the team collapsed in the offseason. Yes, Oakley and John Starks all ran away.

Now the team is the defending champion, Dawlan is absolutely not hesitating to spend money, he should be willing to invest more.

Sure enough, Grant shook his head and said: "Mr. Dawlan said that he will strengthen at all costs, but we are the defending champions. No team in the East is willing to trade with us. In the West, we have fancy two people, the young general Johnson and Mark Jackson. None of the transactions were successful."

Then he said: "I haven't decided to give him a contract for these four people. The transaction is still going on, and we still have time.

By the way, Feilong, do you have any suggestions? I know you don't want to interfere with the management, but you are the boss of this team, and it is necessary to give a proper opinion. "

"Really want me to tell?" Zhao Dong smiled.

Grant chuckled. If it were Jordan, he would definitely shook his head, but he still knew Zhao Dong well. He had already interfered with the team. How could he wait until now?

Zhao Dong nodded and said: "In this way, Charles has an alumnus named Ben Wallace, a small center, who lost the draft with me in 1996. He was on the Bullets last season and had no chance. I think his style is very suitable. We, I think we can give him a chance at a small price. Two seasons of training will definitely be of great use."

"Ben Wallace?"

Grant and old Nelson looked at each other, and the former began to let people search for information.

They certainly don't dare to despise the draft because the most powerful draft loser in history sits in front of them.

Zhao Dong said: "I have another candidate, Nair, maybe you can take a look and give him a chance to try out. He is the main shooting guard of the Chinese men's basketball team, the swingman of the front guard, last season The CBA MVP, named Hu Weidong, dunked Pippen at the Atlanta Olympics."

"I can guarantee that these two people are better than the four veterans on your list who are about to retire. We need immediate combat power, and he is." He said at last.

These two people, since Zhao Dong said, Grant must of course give the opportunity, at least to have a look, that is, the trial training.

And the boss is not afraid of spending money, but he is not afraid of not being able to find good players.

After getting the answer, Zhao Dong called Hu Weidong.

"Zhao Dong, is the chance big?" Hu Weidong said with excitement.

Zhao Dong thought for a while and said: "Brother Hu, our team still has a good chance. There is just a shortage of people on the outside. You should have no problem playing the forward guard."

He still knows about Hu Weiwei, let alone now, even after more than 20 years, there is no more qualified person like Hu Weidong in the second and third positions in China.

At that time, there was a saying that Hu Weidong was the only domestic player who could do moves that foreign players could do, and he could also do it. His overall physical fitness surpassed that of domestic players by a large margin.

"That's OK, Zhao Dong, I thank you, and being able to go to the NBA can be regarded as fulfilling one of my dreams." Hu Weidong made up his mind.

On the 5th, Mrs. Dorisa arrived. She and Lindsay started to form the Storm Financial Investment Fund. There were a lot of things and got busy.

Zhao Dong began to resume training and entered the preparations for the new season.

In the 97-98 season, the Knicks' strength was not as good as last season. Although Ewing is old, he is not comparable to Marcus Camby. He knows this well.

Jordan's physical fitness may be further weakened, but under reasonable and harsh training, the weakening range should be small. With more and more experience, his strength should remain at its peak.

Therefore, the Bulls with Jordan, Ewing and Kidd, coupled with the old and strong Rodman, this season's strength has completely surpassed the Knicks, and even surpassed the Bulls during the three consecutive championships. It is definitely a history. Super strong team of the level.

And this team, with Kidd and Ewing, not only solved the organizational problem, but also solved the problem of internal offensive ability, and at the same time strengthened two weaknesses, it is really super strong.

Even Zhao Dong believes that this should be the strongest team in history.

Of course, the Bulls also have weaknesses. Tony Kukoc and two role players have been traded, the bench has weakened, and they rely more on the main lineup.

So this season, Zhao Dong knows that the strongest opponent is the Bulls.

As for other teams, the Heat has one more McGrady who hasn't grown up yet, and that shouldn't be a problem.

But without Ewing, the Knicks are weaker than the Bulls and the Heat in terms of internal offense.

To put it simply, in his opinion, the Knicks in the new season have a lot of offensive ability on the inside. Except for Larry Johnson's already diving low offense, no one else has low offensive ability.

In terms of offense, we must rely on full support.

It is extremely difficult to defend the title.

But the more so, the more excited he became.

There is something on his body, if it doesn't increase the difficulty, it is difficult to get him excited.

And he estimated that this time the Bulls can complete the transaction, maybe Stern will work hard, at least he hasn't stopped the Bulls from strengthening at all.

This should be because Stern was dissatisfied with him, and still chose to support Jordan, who is beginning to grow old.

But it doesn't matter, what he has is a sniper system, not a kneeling system, all enemies are his future.

"NONONO, Mr. Wells, I have no idea of ​​selling the team at all. I will not sell it for any money."

James Dawlan thinks Ringer Wells is completely crazy. Why does he think he will sell the Knicks just after he has just started the team and won the championship?

"That's a pity, I can only ask other people. UU reading www.uukanshu.com Of course, if you want to sell in Jinsi, you can let me know."

Wells is very conscientious, even if he knows that James Dawlan will not sell the team, he still meets with him to discuss the acquisition of the team.

"Mr. Wells, who are you buying the team for?" Dawlan asked curiously.

"You know, Mr. Dawlan, I work for Miss Lindsay. She wants to give Feilong a team, a big team." Wells laughed.

"what?"

Daolan was startled, her mouth widened.

"The aristocratic style is really unexpected." He was dumbfounded and authentic.

"Yes." Wells laughed.

"Will Feilong accept it?" Daolan asked suddenly with some gossip.

"Feilong will also give Miss Lindsay an equivalent gift." Wells shrugged and smiled.

"Is Feilong so rich? Does he have a background in China?" Daolan asked in surprise.

"how to say?"

Wells smiled and said, "It should be."

He only knew that Zhao Dong copied the foreign exchange. He really didn't know how much money he made, and he wouldn't disclose it casually. Daolan's self-righteousness just saved him from explaining.

"Well, Mr. Dawlan, I have to ask other team owners. Miss Lindsay wants the big team, the Lakers, the Bulls, and only these two teams." At this time, he was going to leave.

"You can buy the Bulls to help Miss Lindsay, and then dismantle the Bulls' lineup, so that our Knicks can defend the title smoothly." Dawlan teased.

He knows that it is too difficult for the team to defend the title in the new season, almost impossible, and the lineup is too bad for the Bulls.

Now he is a little dissatisfied with Grant's ability. The team trade was not successful. If Grant hadn't picked up Zhao Dong, he would have been fired.

Wells laughed and said, "That way Jordan will go crazy."
