Build a Dream Dynasty

On the second day after returning to China, Jiang Mingliang, accompanied by Yao Ming, visited the training hall of the Shanghai Sharks.

Compared with other CBA teams, the training hall and training facilities of the Sharks are the most scientific. Of course, this is due to the advanced experience brought back by Yao Ming from the NBA. However, compared with NBA teams, the gap is indeed very large. The reason is very simple , Many supporting facilities in the NBA team are constantly updated, and secondly, they are expensive. Although the Sharks have a good market, there is still a long way to go to support a team, let alone introduce American players. Advanced equipment too.

For example, in the Nets' training hall, there is a hypoxic room that can control the oxygen content, heat and humidity in the air. Injured players can ride bicycles or perform other exercises in conditions that replicate the thin atmosphere and high temperature of high-altitude cities such as Quito, the capital of Ecuador (2850 meters above sea level). Science has proven that high-altitude training can improve the level of aerobic exercise . In addition, they also have a low-temperature treatment room that can reach minus 130 degrees Celsius. The players will use this low-temperature treatment the day after the game to help recovery. The team is also equipped with NASA equipment: AlterG anti-gravity treadmill! This is also used to aid recovery, as it reduces the load on the body below the waist, which means injured players can start jogging long before normal expectations as their legs and joints experience much less impact. This device was also invented by NASA to simulate the low-gravity environment of astronauts. After the team moved to New York, if the market conditions were good, Jiang Mingliang planned to purchase a special plane for the team. If successful, they would become the second NBA team to own a special plane after the Dallas Mavericks.

The economic base determines the superstructure, and it is really impossible to expect Yao Ming to transfuse the team alone, not to mention the high cost of investing in these items. Even the team's daily operations are already in a state of making ends meet, which is also related to the overall operation of the CBA.

There is no star meet-and-greet, no star offline activities. At Christmas, NBA teams will organize stars to go to schools, orphanages, orphanages, shopping malls and other places to do publicity, public welfare, and promotion. As for CBA, there is no such concept, and it cannot be seen anyway. With such a long offseason, the players almost disappeared. The Nets have almost sold out their tickets for next season during the offseason. Two hours before the start of the CBA team's arena, there are scalpers selling tickets for 20 yuan.

"The policy background of semi-professionalization is one aspect. I think your team can develop more ideas in terms of operations, which can always reduce losses." After in-depth exchanges, Jiang Mingliang also heard some voice-overs from Yao Ming's tone, Said.

Jiang Mingliang's operation in the Nets can be regarded as a model of basketball team operation. Yao Ming has an elite commercial team, the Yao Team. This team that helped Yao Ming complete his business plan has achieved great success in operating Yao Ming. Yao Ming's current net worth of 2.2 billion RMB is not inferior to that of James. Kobe Bryant, the top player in the league A superstar, much higher than the stars of the same level, except for the huge Chinese market, the Yao team has contributed a lot. However, Jiang Mingliang obviously has considerable authority in the business of running the team, and Yao Ming's suggestions are certainly worth referring to.

"What do you think?" Yao Ming asked.

"I have to do a research and look at the data. Simply asking me to give an opinion here may be a little fake." Jiang Mingliang said.

"OK, I also want to hear your opinion." Yao Ming nodded, not too minding showing Jiang Mingliang the team's internal information.

Having known each other for two years, Yao Ming also went through a process from suspicion to recognition to trust in Jiang Mingliang. It can't be said that he is in Cao Ying and his heart is in Han, but Jiang Mingliang can definitely be regarded as a patriotic Chinese when evaluated by the moral standards of overseas Chinese. As for the business secrets of the Sharks, Yao Ming spent 180 million RMB to buy the Sharks. This amount of money is not enough for someone with a fortune like Jiang Mingliang to devise a scam.

The main dancer and captain Mia of the Nets basketball babes is helping to train the basketball babes of the Sharks. The basketball babes of the Sharks are taken out individually. Walking on the road, they are all goddess-level, but standing in front of Mia , all of them look short, round, without curves, the charm of Mia's casual movements is too advanced compared to them (the basketball park invited the basketball babies of the Bulls to guide the domestic basketball babies, the gap is really Big, it’s not me kneeling and licking crooked nuts).

"Fighting!" Jiang Mingliang shook his fist at Mia and made a cheering gesture. Mia just smiled slightly, and the eyes of the babies of the Sharks turned green. . . . . .

After visiting the training hall, Jiang Mingliang followed Yao Ming to his office.

"Coke or tea?"

"Just pure water." Jiang Mingliang sat on the sofa and reached out to take the water Yao Ming handed over.

"Ding Yan Yuhang's matter, please handle it." Yao Ming said.

"In fact, he was very reluctant to play in the summer league. I think Guo Ailun might be more suitable. You value the Olympics too much." Of course, Jiang Mingliang is not only talking about Guo Ailun, but also Yao Ming himself.

"As you can see, even if he can't play, his training in the United States during this period is his wealth. As for Guo Ailun, one is to feel the atmosphere, and second, he is the only one in China who can break the full-court press. Point guard is of great significance. We can compete with New Zealand and the British team in the Olympics, and we still hope to advance to the quarterfinals." Yao Ming also knows that the strength of this national team is not the same as that of the team four years ago. There is no way to compare them, but fortunately this time the grouping was lucky, avoiding the strong teams such as the US team, the Greek team, and the Brazilian team. The two weakest teams, the New Zealand team and the British team, both entered this group. It seems that Still have to fight.

"Let me be honest, I think you might be disappointed." Jiang Mingliang expressed his pessimism.

Although Sun Yue is also a guard with NBA experience, his technical characteristics are really comprehensive and not omnipotent on the stage of international competitions, especially the lack of stable shooting, which is fatal under the FIBA ​​system. Only Yi Jianlian can really play a central role in the national team.

"The British team should play some games." Yao Ming insisted, this time, New Zealand was not mentioned.

This is the second time that the British have appeared on the Olympic basketball court after 64 years. The last time, in 1948, they also participated as the host. In other words, in the 84 years since basketball became an official event in the Olympic Games, the only two British players have participated in the competition are the privileges of the host country. The basketball atmosphere in this country can be imagined.

"But there are a group of old blacks with both British and American nationalities." Yao Ming must be powerless to refute this. But in other people's territory, it's better not to talk too much, Jiang Mingliang can only say politely, "Maybe."
