Giant of the times

Chapter 271 The team boss! (1)

After the NBA draft began, Li Zetian also began to pay attention to Jordan and other basketball rookies.

Of course, his time is very precious, it costs millions per second, and it’s US dollars, so he doesn’t have that much leisure to watch every game. He just asked others to record some highlights for him to see.

The owner of the Bulls has been changed, but he has never shown up, which has become the focus of discussion.

The players were also talking privately, speculating on who the boss was.

However, no one guessed that the owner of the Bulls would be Li Zetian.

After the NBA draft ended, the Bulls selected Jordan as they wished. At this time, the Bulls club held a press conference and announced that the Bulls would move to Los Angeles!

As soon as the news came out, people were both surprised and confused: Why did the Bulls move to Los Angeles?

It was a hot summer day, and the leaves were wilted by the sun. Under the grape trellis, the grown-up Simba was lying on the ground listlessly sleeping.

Li Zetian drank frozen juice and listened to Dongfang Yuqin's report on the company's situation while thinking.

"Mr. Li, the Bulls have moved to the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, what should we do next?" Dongfang Yuqin asked softly.

Li Zetian half-squinted his eyes, thought for a while, and asked: "Dongfang Yuqin, do you think we should build a large stadium and then acquire a few teams? I think the stadium should also be very profitable, and we can sell tickets. , food, clothing, sporting goods, club peripheral products, and you can also advertise!”

Dongfang Yuqin replied: "Mr. Li, the stadium is indeed very profitable, especially during important team games, tickets are very expensive. If the stadium has 50,000 seats, a ticket ranges from 200 to 300 US dollars. Just one ticket The ticket price for each game is more than 10 million U.S. dollars. Although part of the money needs to be allocated to the team, it is still very profitable! If you include other income, it is very profitable!!!"

"ESPN sports television network needs to develop, and it naturally needs more heavyweight game videos. The four most popular sports in the United States, the first is American football, the second is baseball, and basketball is not Americans' favorite program. If you want to build a stadium , there must be a football team or a baseball team! The Bulls may not be able to support the field... However, I recommend acquiring a football team. Mr. Li, you know how popular the Super Bowl should be in the United States, even if it is the Olympic Games It’s not as popular as the Super Bowl!!!”

Li Zetian nodded, indicating that he understood, and immediately asked Dongfang Yuqin to instruct his subordinates to purchase a National Football League team.

The "San Diego Lightning" was founded in Los Angeles. The team won the NFL championship in 1963, so it became Li Zetian's first acquisition target, and the team's name is very famous.

As the players watched the game, they all shouted: "Lightning! Lightning!"

How impressive this is!

Teams in the 1980s were not very valuable, and the U.S. dollar was very valuable. So two weeks later, Li Zetian successfully acquired the "San Diego Lightning" for US$75 million.

At the same time, Li Zetian sent someone to contact the Los Angeles government and proposed a stadium project, and received support from the other party.

At the end of October 1984, the Kronos Stadium project was officially approved, with an investment amount of US$500 million.

As soon as this news came out, the United States was shocked!

Then some media thought of the Bulls changing ownership and moving to Los Angeles and the San Diego Chargers changing ownership, and they couldn't help but immediately thought that Li Zetian might be the person behind the scenes.

Reporters from major media immediately swarmed to the door of Li Zetian's villa, wanting to interview him and get accurate answers.

Li Zetian sent Dongfang Yuqin to come forward and announce the truth to the outside world.

"As everyone has guessed, the owner of the Bulls and San Diego Chargers is Chronos Li! I hope everyone will leave here immediately so as not to disturb the lives of Mr. Li and his family!"

After Dongfang Yuqin finished speaking, she immediately returned to the villa.

When the reporters got the answers they wanted, they dispersed.

That day, the media reported the incident one after another, causing a sensation in the United States.

The biggest impact is on the Bulls and San Diego Chargers. The owner is the richest man in the world, and he feels proud. Needless to say, the benefits and benefits will definitely make other teams envious and jealous.

However, they may be overthinking. Li Zetian wants to build an all-star lineup. Although the salary in the team is very high, the competition is more intense, and those with poor abilities can easily be eliminated!

At this time, Li Zetian thought that since everyone knew that he was a member of two teams, he planned to go to the team to have a look to express condolences.

He first went to the San Diego Chargers and then to the Bulls. He has been with the Bulls for a little longer, and the only familiar face there is Jordan, but he is still very green now.

"You must be this NBA rookie Jordan!" Li Zetian looked at Jordan and showed a faint smile.

Jordan was surprised. He didn't expect that Li Zetian was so kind to others and even knew him.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Li, I am Jordan!" Because he was too nervous, Jordan didn't know what to say.

Li Zetian smiled again, "Come on, I'm optimistic about you!"

"Thank you Mr. Li!" Jordan said.

Li Zetian nodded, looked around, and greeted everyone: "The Bulls have not performed well in the past few years. I hope the Bulls can achieve good results in next year's NBA competition! I can give you higher treatment, but you have to pay for it." I win the glory! I will make stricter demands on you!!!"

"Yes!!!" Everyone responded in unison.

Li Zetian smiled with satisfaction and prepared to leave. Among this group of players, Li Zetian felt so short that he couldn't help but feel depressed.

Just as he was about to leave, three guests came outside. They looked shocked when they saw Li Zetian here. The leader immediately stepped forward and introduced himself: "Hello Mr. Li, I didn't expect to see you here! I am Phil Knight, CEO of Nike!"

When Li Zetian heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, Nike, a very awesome sports brand company, with a market value of nearly 100 billion US dollars! However, Nike has not really risen yet, Adidas is the current overlord.

"Hello, Mr. Phil Knight, nice to meet you. What is your purpose of coming here?"

"Oh, I want to invite Jordan to endorse Nike!" Phil Knight said straight to the point. Originally he was optimistic about Jordan, but now that the Bulls were acquired by Li Zetian, he values ​​Jordan even more.

Li Zetian thought at this time, could Nike rise rapidly because Jordan endorsed it? Well, it seems so. Air Jordan's influence is huge. If he wears Nike sneakers, a large number of young Americans will follow suit crazily.
