Chapter 432 Miyano Shiho (please subscribe, please support)

Many role players choose to play in overseas leagues, leaving superstars to use their influence to deal with the league, but as long as it involves a war between "labor" and "management," it is rare to be able to reconcile easily.

The bosses would rather accept losses in the short term than ignore the signs of the players. James, Wade, who are worth a lot of money, can continue to live and drink, and the three heroes, but more role players still have the pressure to "support their families."

. It is obvious that compared with the minor conflicts within the management, the conflicts between the labor and the employees are deeper.

Occasionally, some people will cry out to leave the NBA and form a beautiful new league without oppression or exploitation.

However, such remarks about showing off one's IQ only add to the laughter of the fans.

On September 23, labor and management held the last negotiation before the official announcement of the shutdown. The result was that the two sides were so quarrelsome at the meeting that the atmosphere was on the verge of violence, but they still did not come up with an acceptable result.

Come.

At this point, all pre-season preparation activities have been cancelled, and the league needs to pay compensation to broadcasters and advertisers. It is inevitable that the new season will not be able to start normally.

The development of things is favorable to Keyan's plan to acquire the Kings. Even if the two parties can finally reach an agreement, the Kings' losses this season will definitely be more serious than before the season, not to mention the image damage caused by this farce.

"How do you think things will turn out in the end?" From the perspective of a bystander, Zhou Jie estimated the daily losses caused by this farce, which was also a bit shocking.

"There is no need for a league that does not make money. Take the CBA for example. If local governments do not provide various preferential policies to teams, who is willing to spend money to engage in this kind of fake professional sports?" At this time, Ke Yan has already brought in

From the perspective of the "employers", he said bluntly, "The players will make substantial concessions, the bosses will give them a step up, the league will introduce terms to help the parent team retain players, and finally find a way to open up the source and open up a larger market."

Prokhorov, as a Russian, has become the league's first foreign owner. Ke Yan and Yao Ming will have much less resistance when they join forces to acquire the Kings. Ke Yan has also formulated a series of effective plans to win the support of the Saskatchewan government and local residents.

There is no reason to lose.

Unless, the NBA really does not intend to pursue the Chinese market and instead focuses on the Indian market.

"So you think the new season will suddenly start at some point?" Zhou Jie muttered.

"More than that, many things will happen during the shortened season. The league will compress the schedule as much as possible and play more games to recover losses."

From this perspective, it is most appropriate for Ke Yan to bid farewell to the NBA briefly and take a year off at this point in time. Otherwise, I don’t know how tiring it would be.

"Why do you feel like you know everything in advance!" Zhou Jie thought about it in her mind, "Like you are a prophet of the future?"

"Hmm???" Keyan paused, "How do you say that?"

"It just feels like...many of the things you do happen to be stuck at a critical time point." Zhou Jie said, "Whether it's your operations in the NBA or your investment choices, including investing in

Grasp the situation of this shutdown event!"

Doing one thing alone is already considered a genius, but if you can do everything to the extreme, there must be something wrong if something goes wrong. The more Zhou Jie summed it up, the more Zhou Jie felt that Ke Yan was cheating: "There is nothing special about you."

Bar?"

"I asked you to help me study the situation, but I didn't ask you to study me~" Ke Yan laughed and took him over.

"By the way~" Zhou Jie wrinkled her nose, but it was a pity that the two of them were communicating on the phone, otherwise she would have really noticed the panic on Ke Yan's expression.

Ke Yan, who was on the other end of the phone, was also silent for a long time after hanging up the phone. It had been almost ten years, and he himself sometimes forgot about this strange experience, but he didn't expect that someone would suddenly notice it. This mentality is like a

A rich man obtained his first pot of gold through "illegal means", relied on this first pot of gold to become rich, and successfully laundered his name. When he became famous, he was discovered to have had an improper source of funds...

...

In addition to always paying attention to the NBA, the focus of Ke Yan's life is all on his daughter. When he was a coach before, Wang Lifan sacrificed more time to take care of his daughter. Now that he is resting, he plays the role of a dad.

Wang Lifan, on the other hand, has become a well-known "medical blogger" in the Chinese Internet celebrity circle. She is very popular, and many people come to her for health products. However, Wang Lifan refuses to accept any of them, and only earns website incentives and video views.

That little money.

In fact, with Keyan's career developing so successfully, it really doesn't matter to Wang Lifan whether it's money or not. She enjoys the "sense of accomplishment" more, especially the "positioning exchange" between herself and Keyan. In the past,

Others call her "Ke Yan's wife", and now, others call her "Wang Lifan's husband".

The NBA has made no progress, but the CBA has attracted more attention from fans because of the joining of many stars, but it has also exposed many problems.

Quincy Dolby, who showed great power last season and allowed Chinese fans to see high-quality foreign aid, was injured in the preseason, which directly destroyed Guanghui's offensive ability. Kenyon Martin was basically a rookie in the CBA as a foreign aid, and he was useless everywhere.

Qualified. Due to the downgrade of the foreign aid level, the performance of the originally promising Guanghui team was a mess, and the Xinjiang aid sentry could not save them;

JR Smith also made a fuss every three days and a big fuss every five days in the Zhejiang Provincial Men's Basketball Team. Before coming, many fans thought that because of JR's singles ability, he would be Jordan when he came to the CBA; in fact, he only had singles left.

And he really uses the game as training to practice his singles ability, no matter one on two, one on three or even one on four, he really doesn't pass the ball;

Except for Wilson Chandler, all other big-name foreign players basically have this kind of behavior, and the management of each team is given a headache by these guys.

Ke Yan has 10% of the shares and consultant position in the Nangang team. He did not let the team find these big names who are difficult to maintain, and instead signed Hudson, who was abandoned by the Hongyuan team. This combo guard will be a CBA star in the future.

He is capable enough to cope with both his status as a big player in the CBA and an abandoned player in the NBA. To put it simply, he is better at playing in the CBA than as a big-name player. Returning to the NBA will mean nothing.

"Firmly hold on to Hudson's signing rights, and it will be enough for small foreign players to select him in the future." Ke Yan's words can make the Nangang team stable for many years to come. However, Sudong Province's basketball is not just

It can be saved by choosing a foreign aid. As far as the training of basketball talents in China is concerned, it has to be the three eastern provinces and eastern Guangdong Province. When Keyan opened his mouth, he could only guarantee the minimum limit.

...

On November 9th, labor and management started negotiations again. This time, it was obvious that labor had loosened its tone. More and more "low-level players" openly complained about having to support their families, and labor could no longer withstand it.

The employers who saw the "glow" had a tough attitude. After the final negotiations failed to reach an agreement, the players union dissolved the union and transformed it into an industry association. As a result, the players can act as individual employees of the NBA to carry out anti-monopoly actions against the league.

litigation.

On November 15, NBA players including Anthony, Billups, Leonard, and Leon Bowie filed an antitrust lawsuit against the NBA in California federal court; including Anthony Tolliver, Ben Gordon,

NBA players including Caron Butler and Derrick Williams filed an antitrust lawsuit against the NBA in Minnesota federal court.

The actual meaning of this behavior is not to separate, but to "submit weakness". These players can no longer withstand the pressure.

In order to "celebrate" the NBA's losses this season, Ke Yan made a special trip to Sacramento to meet with Zhou Jie and estimate the losses caused by this "suspension" incident.

"For a team like the Kings, the biggest source of income is the broadcast fee income and ticket income in the United States. If the season shrinks by 20%, the Kings' direct economic losses will increase by at least 20 million.

.It is very likely that their economic losses will be as high as 30 million." Zhou Jie analyzed.

"And they don't have any draft picks this year, and they don't have much opportunity to strengthen the team's lineup. Unless Cousins ​​and Evans cheat, otherwise, it will be difficult to improve their record." Ke Yan said.

Of course he didn't dare to say "175 is the strongest on the surface". The "Dabai Bian" people have a high value for training and have been suspected of being cheated by Zhou Jie. If there are any more magical predictions, maybe the other party will really be able to deduce them.

What comes out?

"I don't know much about basketball, but according to what you said, the Kings have a long way to go." Zhou Jie said as she parked the car and took Ke Yan to the park that she had told him about. It was also Zhou Jie who was looking for a good one.

of land for the new arena.

"With your budget, if I can lead the Kings to the playoffs next season, can I reverse the current situation of the Kings' losses?" Walking on the land of the park, taking a deep breath of the fragrance of the soil after the winter rain, Ke Yan

asked.

As strong as Keyan, he knows many factors that are beneficial to him, especially after the implementation of the new broadcast contract in 2016, serious NBA teams can make money as long as they don't be stupid. I also want to hear Zhou Jie's perspective without God's perspective.

"If next season is a normal season, combined with your results of taking the team to at least the second round of the playoffs every season, I believe you can at least get the team out of a loss-making state. But what you and Yao Ming have

Can the double blessing allow the Kings to achieve the influence of the Hawks or even the Rockets in China in a short period of time, thereby earning a sum of extra money? I can’t give you a clear answer to how much this extra money is. There are too many uncontrollable factors.

Already."

"OK." Ke Yan was quite satisfied with this answer and relaxed a little. He looked at Zhou Jie in front of him again and said, "Thanks, Sherry."

"Huh?" Zhou Jie was stunned, "Call me?"

"It feels like you are dressed like a girl named Sherry today." Ke Yan smiled and said.

"OMG, you wouldn't talk to me in this way, would you?" Zhou Jie smiled playfully and joked.

"I'm not lying, they really look alike~" Ke Yan took out his mobile phone and was about to show Zhou Jie the other party's photo, but saw the other party reject him three times.

"I'm talking about Shiho Miyano, a character in "Detective Conan"." Ke Yan said, "Looking at your English name is Sakura, I thought you had some two-dimensional attributes."

"Comic character?" Zhou Jie looked at Ke Yan with a strange look, "Just because I like cherry blossoms doesn't mean I like everything in Japan. But it's you, wow, you actually know how to read... this?"

That being said, who hasn’t been young before?

.......

When the time came on November 26, before everyone was prepared, the labor agreement was officially reached. The management made breakthrough progress in many regulations.

1: The revenue sharing ratio has been switched from the original 57%:43% to 49% each, and the remaining 2% will be distributed according to the operating conditions of the current season;

Two: The total minimum wage, also known as the "poor man's line", has increased from 75% of the salary cap to 85% to 90%. In other words, like the original Clippers, they save money every year, operate with the minimum wage, and eat the broadcast share.

Bastard teams will cease to exist;

Three: For the luxury tax part, the original rule was that the excess amount was paid at a ratio of 1:1, but now it is adjusted to a ratio of 1:1 for the portion between 0 and 5 million U.S. dollars, a 1:2 payment for the portion between 5 and 10 million U.S. dollars, and so on;

In the future, it will inhibit the "super team" to a certain extent. After all, although the Knicks and Lakers have money, they still have a ceiling to a certain extent;

Four: Regarding the renewal of the contract, the maximum renewal period was originally scheduled to be five years. Now it has been revised to the point that the renewal period after the rookie contract is 4 years. Each team has a designated clause and can designate a player.

Players reach a five-year maximum salary; this situation is limited to draft teams like the Thunder. If the contract extensions of Durant, Westbrook, and Harden are all included in this collective bargaining agreement, the team can only designate one person to renew the contract.

In five years, the other two people can only sign a four-year contract, which will definitely cause rift with the team;

Five: Regarding the adjustment of the maximum salary amount, the overall adjustment is not big. The main adjustment is the addition of the "Rose Clause". Within four years of the rookie, if he wins the MVP or enters the All-NBA Team or All-Star starter twice, he can trigger the Rose Clause and get the salary.

A large contract that reaches 30% of the salary cap; on the surface, this protects the interests of super stars; in fact, it also balances the strength of each team and prevents some teams from enjoying more advanced players at low prices; typical representative

, Durant triggered Rose's clause, and the Thunder increased their expenditure by $2 million, so they had no money to renew Harden's contract because of the $2 million;

Six: Adjustment of the amnesty clause, each team has a chance to cut off a junk contract signed 11 years ago; this is to help the team get rid of a junk contract within the rules and reduce expenses.

A simple summary is that it suppresses wealthy teams, suppresses teams with good draft vision, enhances the interests of new stars, and supports more bad teams.

The regular season will start on Christmas Day and continue until the end of April 26. The regular season will be reduced to 66 games. Each team will face a tighter schedule, and basically every team will have a "back-to-back to back" schedule.

A tight schedule will bring greater injury risks to players.

(There are some foreshadowing plots that are very important for the protagonist's operation after taking over the Kings. When writing realistic sports articles, some things must be logical and cannot be made up with your eyes closed)
