In a very spacious room, there was a huge round table, with Yao Ming sitting in the middle, surrounded by the general managers of various CBA clubs in luxurious clothes.
"Yao, how could such a troublesome thing happen?" The general manager of a CBA club stood up and looked at Yao Ming in a questioning tone.
"Snapped!!"
Another club general manager slammed the table.
"You still send players to the United States to play? What about our league? What do I eat, what do my employees eat, what do the players eat? The top players in the league have gone out, and no one is watching the game! Are we all drinking the northwest wind? ?”
"So Chairman Yao, you understand, we have to control them, even if we don't let Yuhang return to China." A general manager said while adjusting his black-rimmed glasses.
"I don't have any objection. Players are leaving our place." Suddenly a discordant voice came out from among the many voices.
"You old guys know how to say, can you overwhelm the public opinion? The country will definitely come down to deal with it. If any club has a problem, it will not just be a matter of sending players out." A relatively young team The manager crossed his legs and looked at the frantic general managers with a calm expression.
"Ahem..." Yao Ming coughed twice.
The general managers also sat down again.
Counting Yao Ming's vote in the first vote, Yuhang's request was voted 16:5 and failed.
"This time, people all over the country and even some foreigners on the Internet know about China. The matter has become unable to be solved secretly."
"The higher-ups must also know about this." Yao Ming continued to hammer these club managers.
"But even if you say that, if there are no stars in the league, there is really no way to watch the game. If no one goes to watch it live and no one watches it online, the league will not make any money." A club general manager held up his square cheek to watch. Yao Ming said.
"Yes, the league's ratings are already low, and the live attendance rate is not high, and there is also an epidemic. If the leaders of each team are lost to foreign countries, they really will not be able to survive." The general manager of the club next to him followed. echoed.
"But if the players are not released, the country may not be able to survive even now if they come to investigate." The young club general manager said leisurely.
"asshole……"
"Okay, stop arguing, let's vote again." Yao Ming said while looking at the crowd.
"I agree to Yuhang's request. Raise your hands to send two teams every year to compete in the NBA Development League." Yao Ming said while looking at the crowd.
There were only six people at first, but gradually everyone raised their hands, although the faces of those who raised their hands later showed helplessness.
"What a waste of time." The young man laughed, stood up, and walked outside.
"Asshole... this bastard will obviously lose a lot of money..."
"What a damn guy."
"If it wasn't for his father's sake, I would have done it to him!"
The people behind him were mentally cursing the young man.
"But what should we do next? Chairman Yao? What should the domestic leagues do?" Although they were forced to raise their hands, everyone was actually confused. If the team lost its star player, whether the team could still attract fans to watch the game.
"Well... then let's improve the overall strength of our team." After Yao Ming finished speaking, he ran away.
In fact, Yao Ming has not thought about what to do with the CBA League in the future. Everyone knows that if he shrinks here, the Chinese men's basketball team may one day never even make it to the Olympics.
Soon the news came out.
"The Basketball Association has decided to send a team to the NBA Development League!"
"After the 10th, there will be a referendum to select the players for each position on the two teams you think are the best."
"Fortunately, there is a list this time, and they are all CBA players. If our brother had been there, he would have voted directly to the top."
Xu Ze looked at the phone screen and tears flowed out involuntarily.
"What kind of person is that strange guy?"
"You are really nosy. Who wants to play in the United States and have their salary deducted in half if they lose?"
"Snapped!!"
Xu Zie grabbed a certain CBA player by the collar.
"Asshole, did you do it?"
The teammates on the side pulled Xu Jie away from the CBA player.
"What a lunatic. He's just getting paid. Why are you fighting for your life?" The CBA player straightened his collar. He didn't have the same experience as Xu Jie. After all, he was fined for fighting.
"Are you a superhero?" Xu Zie changed Yuhang's note to hero and sent a message to Yuhang.
Top three on Douyin’s hot list.
"Aerospace's request has been fulfilled! The Basketball Association has decided to send a team to the NBA Development League."
“Countdown to the rise of men’s basketball!!”
"Ma Jian burst into tears in the live broadcast room! Tough and tender!"
The hot searches on Weibo were quickly dominated by Yuhang. Someone began to build a fan base of Brother Zhen, and the number of fans was full on the first day.
"Is it really successful?" After Ma Jian answered the phone call, he couldn't control his tears instantly.
Yao Ming called Xiao Hua.
"Hello, Xiao Hua, I have a business with you. Can you do it with a guaranteed profit or loss?" Yao Ming said sincerely on the other end of the phone.
"You said it." Adam Silver still respects Yao Ming, the number one basketball player in China, and his tone is very calm.
"Our country wants to send two teams to the NBA Development League." Yao Ming continued.
"Huh?" Xiao Hua seemed not to hear clearly.
"I mean China sent two teams to join the NBA Development League." Yao Ming repeated again.
"Then what can I get?" Xiao Hua did not deny Yao Ming's suggestion, but asked Yao Ming the terms of the transaction.
Yao Ming thought it was interesting.
"First of all, the compensation of 10 million yuan a year is considered extra. And the ratings in China are all Chinese stars. With more than 1.4 billion people, you can imagine how many points it will increase." 10 million, half of which was given by Yao Ming himself, and the other part was half of the wages deducted from the players in the losing group.
The first 10 million did not have much appeal to Xiao Hua, but when he later heard that they were all Chinese stars, Xiao Hua was moved.
"Agree." Xiao Hua readily agreed to Yao Ming. After all, he is a businessman and he can see the generous benefits that the Chinese market has brought him.
"I'm looking forward to our meeting." Yao Ming said with a relieved smile.
"I'm also looking forward to meeting you and your Chinese players," Xiao Hua also said with a smile on the other end of the phone.
Then Yao Ming and Xiao Hua exchanged a few words and ended the call.
"Yes!!!" Yao Ming hadn't felt so excited for a long time. He jumped up while holding up his mobile phone, as if he had returned to his peak period and became a member of those two teams.
