America’s Big Hero

"The New York Knicks' shareholding is a bit chaotic at the moment. There are a total of more than a dozen shareholders. Everyone holds too little. The most are two companies, one is the American Cable TV System Company, and the helm is Charles Dolan. One is the ITT Group, and the CEO of the company is Rand Araskog."

"It's very difficult to acquire the New York Knicks." Lamb shook his head and said, "Also, it's very expensive, more expensive than you think."

"How expensive?!" Sean frowned. It's only 1985. Jordan hasn't made a name for himself yet, and the NBA doesn't make money. NBA teams should be cheap.

"In 1979, the Los Angeles Lakers were bought by the Bass family. The price at that time was 67 million. Although the Los Angeles Lakers are very famous, they are still inferior to the New York Knicks in terms of commercial value. Valuation, the price of the New York Knicks should be around $120 million."

"Pfft!" Sean couldn't help but spit out, he was really taken aback by the price, it's worth 120 million now, isn't this a joke!

"How expensive it is!" Sean was a little mad.

"More than a year ago, in 1983, the sale price of the Indiana Pacers was 4.5 million." Lamb spread his hands, the team's position is different, and the commercial value is completely different.

"Moreover, I have to explain that Madison Square Garden does not belong to the New York Knicks. The arena belongs to Gulf Corporation and Occidental Corporation. The valuation of the arena including the land is about 400 million U.S. dollars."

Sean trembled again when he heard that, what the hell, remember the Knicks that the Dolan family bought for 30 million in 1997!

But if you think about it carefully, you will be relieved. Madison Square Garden is located in Midtown Manhattan, New York, above the largest train station in the United States. How could the value of such a huge piece of land be low.

"Okay, I know." Sean raised his hand to stop Lamb from continuing, he felt distressed, "That's it, help me pay attention to the small shareholders of the Knicks, I may consider buying them first shares."

As for the Dolan family and the ITT Group of America Cable, Sean still didn't think about it, it was too huge.

After sending Lamb away, Sean couldn't help thinking. There was another team in front of him, and it was very cheap. It was New Jersey's own team, just over 10 kilometers north of Newark, the New Jersey Nets.

But Sean's liking for basketball is only one aspect. What he values ​​more is the prestige it brings, so the Nets are not in his consideration at all.

As for the Knicks, that's all they can do for the time being, let's talk about the future, let's talk about it in the future.

Putting this matter behind him, Sean came out of the office. It was almost time to make an appointment with Wells, and he had to pick up someone ahead of time, Diane Lane.

John brought the whole crew to Newark 2 days ago to start filming. Sean was busy with Dimio's affairs and didn't show up. Now that the matter has come to an end, of course he took time to see Diane Lane.

One is that he misses that young and soft body, and the other is that he is going to devote all his energy to filming recently, at least on the surface.

When we arrived at the crew, we are filming the previous episode. As a female gangster, Diane Lane is dressed like an urban white-collar worker, but the costumes are very close-fitting, which sets off Diane's figure with bumps and bumps, making her appear pure and innocent With lust in his eyes, he didn't look like a gangster at all.

This style was not requested by Sean, including the addition of a female character to the gangster, which was decided by John himself. What he wanted to highlight was a kind of contrast.

According to John, in the movies on the market, the gangsters all look vicious, and the good guys look kind, with the same faces, no distinctive features, no selling point, neither profitable nor artistic, nor realistic.

This point was exactly his core thought when he later filmed "Die Hard".

Sean has no opinion on this, and Sean will not interfere with any design that satisfies his requirements for the movie.

Many people in the production crew saw Sean's arrival, but John didn't come over. He just nodded slightly and then sat behind the monitor to direct the filming. go up.

After learning that Diane Lane's role for today was over, Sean took Diane away, and Elizabeth McGovern on the other side bit her lower lip when she saw this scene, feeling very unwilling.

Diane Lane came out after changing clothes, hugged Sean and gave him a deep kiss as soon as she got in the car. It had been a week since she hadn't seen him. Diane missed Sean very much and felt hot all over when she saw him.

Sitting in the back row, Diane half-lyed on Sean's lap, raised her head and looked at Sean with cute eyes, innocently rubbing her little hands back and forth dishonestly.

what is this?

In the front and rear cars, a group of people from the security company placed their bets one after another.

As time went by, everyone kept looking at their watches at the beginning, and after 10 minutes passed, everyone became silent, with strange expressions on their faces.

The atmosphere in the two cars was very strange.

"Hey, it can't be an act..." A weak voice came out of the intercom system, causing everyone to cough.

Another long day passed.

Sean let out a long breath, looked up at the roof of the car, and suddenly felt that he should change to a car with a larger space and a taller body.

That way you don't have to stop on the road...

On the other hand, those who lost were in a bad mood, and those who won were not very happy. It took a long time before someone said, "I won, and I knew it. The head and body are so good, it must last as long as mine!"

"Oh, stop bragging, brat."

"Damn it, the bitch, she's lying, she's just trying to comfort you, Jenny told me you couldn't do it."

"You can't!"

"You can not!"

"It's you!"

"It's you!"

...

Just when Diane tasted the essence, Tony on the other side, covered in blood, rushed to the house and fled Trenton with his wife and children immediately.

On the way, he heard that his uncle and another family member had been shot, and everyone was dead.

"Akomo Apple!!" Tony, covered in blood, roared ferociously in the car.

...

...

The result of the first order came out, much worse than expected, 1000 did not arrive, a little more than 900.

Of course, no matter what the result is, I am a full-time author, and the update will not be slow.

Let’s talk about updates briefly. This month, there will be four updates every day. I’m not sure about February, after all, it’s Chinese New Year.
