Lisko’s American Life

783. Buying a team

After seeing off Jayne and the others, Lisko stood at the airport, looking at the plane going away, feeling a little bit reluctant.

Although they have not been together for a long time with Jayne and the others, these people have undoubtedly walked into Lisko's heart and become one of the more important friends in life. The relationship between people is divided into relatives and distant ones.

Before getting on the plane, Lisko also gave Jayne a gift that he had prepared early in the morning. The other party was very surprised and told him that he would take it apart when he got home.

"Let's go,"

The separation is for a better reunion next time. Lisko has always believed in this sentence. After he could not see the shadow of the plane at all, Lisko gave instructions to Charles on the side, and at the same time put on his sunglasses and sat in the The back of the car.

He still has an itinerary, which is more important, and he has to arrive at the corresponding place at the appointed time.

Recently, Lisko's temper was very violent, and he smashed his own TV, which made Zhang Li unable to follow up on his favorite TV series. Fortunately, Payne took out a TV series from the reserve warehouse in time. A new TV was replaced.

The main reason is also caused by watching the game. Lisko is a fan of the Rockets. The main reason is because of the existence of Yao Ming. The number one basketball player in China is the idol of many Chinese, and Lisko was naturally one of them in his previous life. .

After traveling through time, he picked up this habit, and even went to watch the idol’s game live, and was lucky enough to get an autograph from the other side, and his fluent Chinese also left a deep impression on the star .

When he returned to Denver, he also fell in love with the Nuggets, a local team. He often bought a full set of tickets. Although he didn't often go to the scene to watch, he still wanted to express his support for his favorite team in this way. .

But a few days ago, when he saw the news on the sports channel, he realized that the team had selected the current core players Carmelo Anthony, Chauncey Billups, Sheldon Williams, Anthony Carter and Renardo Balkman was traded to the Knicks. In his opinion, this was a ghostly deal. Naturally, it was a hot three battles. He lost his temper on a rare occasion and directly picked up a stool and smashed the TV.

After learning the whole story, Zhang Li couldn't laugh or cry. She had never seen Lisko in such an emotional state, but it also made her feel that her husband was more three-dimensional, and he was no longer the same as before. It is floating in the clouds, as if like a person outside the world, also has its own emotions.

After Lisko regained his sanity, an idea that had been suppressed before suddenly emerged, that is, to buy the Tunneling team, build a team according to his own ideas, and play a real-life basketball manager.

There was this kind of impulse before, to buy a team of his own, and the Nuggets were his best target, but at that time there were still big stars of the Nuggets in the team, our answer Alan Allen Forsun, so the boss at the time, Stan Kroenke, opened his mouth and made Chandler, the manager of the investment company in charge of the acquisition, think about it, and suggested to Lisko to give up.

Although Lisko is rich, it does not mean that he is willing to be taken advantage of. At that time, the other party’s offer was 2 billion U.S. dollars. Ranked 19th among the thirty teams, which is not very outstanding.

The acquisition of Yuan this time also gave up his mind in this atmosphere, but it is different now. After these years of development, the Nuggets' record has no upward trend at all, and they have never broken through the first round of the playoffs. The curse of this team.

Although there has been improvement in the past two years, he successfully touched the floor of the Western Conference Finals and ranked second in the Western Conference overall record. However, after the coach George Karl was diagnosed with cancer last season, he regretted being reimbursed again this season.

Since the establishment of the team, the Nuggets have never won the finals trophy once, which also made the team owner feel a little annoyed. Compared with his other team, the Premier League Arsenal, the Nuggets brought Interest seems to have been unable to keep up with his footsteps.

And because he is a miser and never likes to invest money in the team, the record of the Nuggets has always been mediocre. Many fans have criticized him, which has also had a great impact on his other investment industries.

For now, selling the Nuggets is the best solution. He can get a lot of money and invest in a more promising football team. Compared with basketball, American football seems to have more interests.

These are all the information Lisko got from some friends and brothers. He immediately realized that his opportunity had come, and immediately contacted Chandler to restart the acquisition of the Nuggets.

After a few days of negotiations, the current team owner Kroenke has already made a move. At the beginning, he spent 400 million US dollars to buy the Nuggets. In addition to the original Pepsi Center Stadium, it has now turned to 1.6 billion. US dollars, and there is a premium for the acquisition. Chandler's offer to the team is 1.72 billion US dollars, and it is paid immediately, which gives Kroenke a great temptation.

Calculated, his investment has quadrupled, and there is no risk, and it is precisely because he used the money to buy the team that he was not bankrupted by the impact of the financial crisis. flipped.

However, there is still disagreement on one thing at present, that is, the Pepsi Center Stadium where the team is located. Being able to retain the ownership of the gymnasium, the benefits brought by such public facilities cannot be underestimated.

After contacting Lisko, he directly made up his mind that the stadium was no longer needed, and he directly bought the team. After the purchase was successful, he negotiated with the city government to rebuild a home center dedicated to the Nuggets instead of the current situation. Sharing a venue with a football team,

For the current Lisko, the value of money is no longer high. What is most needed is to convert these wealth into more valuable and stable real estate. The sports center is a great idea, not only can it bring Performance can also give the family's wealth a bright cover.

More importantly, public facilities really make money. No matter who wants to rent this venue, it will be a considerable amount of income. According to the calculation of the investment company, the cost can be recovered in about nine years, which is already more than that brought by many investment projects. The income is more generous.
