The Clippers lost three games in a row, and Min Congda felt like he was celebrating the New Year, so the system paid him a salary of US$6,000 in one go.
Min Congda used part of the money to buy Apple shares as usual, increasing his share count to 40 shares.
After a short period of adjustment, Apple's stock price has been rising again, reaching a record high of $206 per share.
The value of Min Congda's stock has reached more than 8,000 US dollars, which is a considerable savings.
Including the cash on hand, his total wealth reached 10,000 US dollars, making him an unknown local household worth 10,000 US dollars.
According to local housing prices in Los Angeles, the price of a small detached house for a middle-class family is generally around US$470,000.
For example, the villa Curry bought in the Northeast District cost 490,000 US dollars, which is considered a very simple living among NBA stars.
The price of the city center apartment arranged by the system for Min Congda was US$1.35 million, a price that dropped sharply after being affected by the subprime mortgage crisis.
Before 2008, the price of an apartment here was more than 2 million US dollars, which was not necessarily available.
Min Congda's savings of 10,000 US dollars is enough to buy a space the size of a toilet in an apartment.
Sitting on the toilet, Min Congda was thinking about his recent plan to destroy the situation, and he deeply felt that it was still slow to make money from losing wages.
"I offered Randolph a four-year, $70 million contract. His agent took a commission of $200,000, but I only got $6,000. It's not stable. I'm really speechless."
"It seems that the best way forward is to bankrupt the team or let their market value decline. Even if it is not 300 million US dollars, a decline of 50 million US dollars is still good."
Min Congda once again returned to the problem of increasing the team's expenses, putting the team in debt and unable to make ends meet.
He remembered that he had asked Racheli to find him a collaborator to open a restaurant and give him an answer within two weeks.
It's been two weeks, why is this damn fat guy still silent?
He took out his cell phone and called the team's media department.
"Hey Carrot, are you okay now?"
"Oh, Mr. Smart, that's fine. I'm dealing with some letters from fans..."
"have you eaten?"
"Uh...now? It's only three o'clock in the afternoon, it's still early for dinner."
"Well, there are still about two hours until dinner time. I'll give you two hours to find the collaborators of Staples Restaurant! Otherwise, you can stop eating and go home directly."
"Oh! Mr. Smart, that's it, I..."
"I don't need to hear your explanation. In two hours, I want to hear your answer."
After saying that, Min Congda hung up the phone and got up from the toilet.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, I don't have to go to work and have a leisurely time at home. It's really comfortable.
"Where should we go for dinner tonight? Well... let's go to Curry's house. The food cooked by Ayesha tastes very good."
Min Congda has already thought about going to Curry's house for dinner in the evening.
Racheli hung up the phone, sweating, two hours, only two hours left!
In fact, Racheli has not forgotten the task given by Min Congda.
He started seriously looking for a partner to open a restaurant two weeks ago.
His connections in the catering industry were really limited, so he approached Chef Mazzolani of the training center restaurant.
Mazzolani introduced him to several senior investors in the restaurant industry, but when they heard that they were going to open a high-end restaurant in Staples, they all shook their heads and said they didn't want to do it.
First of all, the rent in Staples Center is very expensive, which is at the ceiling level in the whole of Los Angeles.
Second, Staples Center has been built for many years. The restaurants and shops here are well established and the competition is very fierce.
Third, they think that the idea of opening a high-end restaurant is not feasible, but fast food such as burgers and fried chicken is acceptable.
A fancy restaurant? Who would go to Staples Center to watch a game and eat food from a fancy restaurant?
After talking to several groups of people, but unable to find anyone willing to cooperate, Racheli could only let it go for the time being.
He still has a lot of work to do, because the Clippers' recent record is not bad, and letters from fans have increased significantly.
The media department has to deal with more public opinion situations. Recently, Jordan Peele and Michael Key also said that they would use the team's YouTube account, hoping to increase the team's online publicity.
Various things happened, and now he received Smart's deadline death call again, and Fat Richie was really about to collapse.
Sitting at the desk, Racheli held her head and grabbed her hair, not knowing what to do.
In two hours, where the hell are you going to find a restaurant owner willing to open a high-end restaurant in Staples Center?
But Mr. Smart is a man of his word. If he says he won't let you eat, he will really ruin your job.
There are three children to support at home, a mortgage to pay off a big house, and the housing prices in Los Angeles are so high. This life is really unbearable!
"Dong dong dong!"
There was a knock on the office door.
"Come in, come in."
Racheli said weakly, the door was opened, and Ada came in.
Ada was holding an envelope in her hand. Seeing Racheli's messy hair, she said in surprise: "What's wrong with you, Mr. Racheli? Your hair... and you're sweating a lot."
Racheli spread her hands and said, "That's not the plan to open a restaurant in Staples! Mr. Smart gave me two weeks to find a partner. I found several, but no one was willing to partner. Just now Smart The husband called and said he would only give me two hours, and if he couldn't find her again, I would stop working here."
After saying that, Racheli collapsed on the armchair, her eyes filled with despair.
Ada put the envelope in her hand on the table and said: "Well...Mr. Racheli, if you are looking for a restaurant partner and you can't find one, maybe...maybe I can provide a candidate."
Racheli immediately sat up straight and said, "Really? Ada, do you know anyone in the catering industry?"
Ada nodded and said: "I...my uncle does this, an Italian restaurant."
Racheli was overjoyed when she heard this and said: "Oh, by the way, Ada, you are of Italian origin! That's great, would your uncle be willing to open a restaurant in Staples Center?"
Ada said: "I have to go back and ask, but according to Mr. Smart's plan, if the team comes to fund it, I think he will be happy. It's just..."
"Don't be just, I only have two hours left. In this way, I will leave this matter to you. How about you contact your uncle and Mr. Smart to discuss opening a restaurant? Then... …Oh, what is this envelope?”
Racheli asked, picking up the envelope that Ada had placed on the table.
"This is a letter sent by a young fan. You may need to deal with it."
"Okay, no problem! Leave the fans' letters to me and leave the restaurant to you, okay?"
Thinking that she could pass the blame to Ada, Racheli suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
Ada was originally Min Congda's personal assistant, and it was she who drew up this restaurant investment plan.
It would be much more convenient for her and Min Congda to report this matter directly, and Racheli could save a lot of trouble.
As for handling letters from fans, this is his job, and he is more willing to do this job.
Ada nodded and accepted Racheli's suggestion.
She decided to go to her uncle's house over the weekend to talk to him about opening a restaurant.
She thought to herself that if she could do this, her family would be able to repay her uncle's debt of gratitude.
However, she was afraid of cheating the team and Mr. Smart. After all, her uncle was not a good person.
Thirty years ago, Christopher Andolini was a feared name in Los Angeles.
