NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 58: First press conference

"The boss separated from me as soon as he got off the plane. I went to the NBA headquarters and then came to the arena first."

"It's okay, let's hold a press conference first."

Mustache finally came to the general manager. He was already very stressed out when he was the first deputy general manager. As soon as this real general manager who had been trained under RC Buford arrived, his pressure was gone instantly.

The new general manager of a big ball market had a bunch of reporters waiting to interview him, so D'Antoni simply arranged a press conference.

It can also be said to be a press conference, where the new general manager can say hello to New York fans and the media.

Jiang Chao is not very busy.

He went to One-57 Apartment to get a scouting report he had written and took a shower.

Although he had a personal secretary, he didn't have a personal secretary. He hadn't changed much in the past few days. After Liu Yan called to say there was a press conference, he hurried back, took a shower, and changed into a formal suit.

After all, this is the first time the new general manager has taken office.

He had to give Sean Marks enough face. This was also his first press conference in front of reporters. It was worth it for Sean Marks.

"Junior..."

"Huh?" Jiang Chao, who was taking off his clothes and turning on the loudspeaker, replied gently.

"Come quickly, it's about to open."

"Okay, it's okay, he is the protagonist."

Jiang Chao smiled and hung up the phone.

Liu Yan on the other end pursed her pink lips and carefully held the phone with both hands.

She really wanted to ask you if you are tired these days. She hasn't seen Jiang Chao these days, and she always feels empty inside. But when the words come to her mouth, she doesn't dare to directly express her concern like an American girl.

So I shrunk back again...

There was no other way. She was used to being cold to men emotionally, and suddenly found that she was nothing in society. She couldn't change her feelings for a while. Some boys would talk about her behind her back and use the word "noble".

But here Jiang Chao didn't think about the girl's thoughts.

The reason why he got the team's scouting report was because he made a special one for himself.

It was because after getting off the plane, Mr. Pu sent him a message, saying that he had time to chat about trading. He had great ideas and asked Jiang Chao to have a detailed video call if he had free time. He was always ready to answer the call.

This obviously meant that he wanted to have a serious chat, and he also knew that Jiang Chao had just gotten off the plane and was busy, so he didn't call directly.

Gentleman's thunder, Thunder's thunder.

"I need to find a beautiful nanny when I have time. Bah, no, it's a life assistant."

Jiang Chao rummaged through his clothes, put on a suit of clothes and rushed to the arena.

…

Here Sean Marks is facing the "torture" of the media in the second most severe city in the world (the first is Los Angeles)

"Do you know that you have the ability to run the Knicks' operations? What advantages do you have compared to Downey Sr.?"

Sean Marks is also awesome:

"young."

"Then why do you think Boss Jiang Chao chose you?"

"He believes in my abilities. I will learn more and listen to his opinions in the early stage. I know he has great ideas and good things will happen to the Knicks."

Sean Marks is referring to Jiang Chao and he both like Curry, but he can't say that he has to cooperate with Jiang Chao and Curry to the end. Didn't he see that Curry didn't even utter a fart after Jiang Chao's operation? He was just pretending.

Zuo doesn't care.

"After leaving the Spurs that gave you the championship ring, the fans felt you were betrayed. Starting directly as the general manager in New York, how will you face the pressure from the fans and the owner."

At this time, Jiang Chao walked in from behind with his back straightened and an upright voice.

The sculptural face looks even more stylish under the camera light.

"I won't put pressure on him. Aren't you the ones putting pressure on him?"

Jiang Chao smiled and sat down next to Max.

There was a constant buzz of snapping photos. This was the young boss’s first press conference.

Max also said:

"The pressure from the fans requires us to work together and the players to work together."

After he said it, the clever New York Sports reporter immediately grasped the key point and asked Boss Jiang:

"When it comes to players, what are you going to do to these players who oppose you? Except for Nate, Harrington and the other four, Duhon and the others have never spoken out..."

In fact, Nate and the others have also taken a break. In recent days, Jiang Chao's continuous "congestion" for the management has made them very scared. Everyone knows that the next step is theirs.

Therefore, Harrington and others who caused the trouble have been sending text messages to insiders, hoping that the boss will stop messing around and that if they want to trade, it is best to trade in the direction they want.

To put it simply, please don't mess with us. Of course, there are also those who surrender on their own initiative, such as last year's first-round pick Gallinelli, who really wants to play in the Knicks.

The famous Italian commanders are here, how many rounds can he fire from his Italian cannon?

Like Curry, they were more concerned the more silent they were, and several players couldn't sleep for several days.

Afraid.

What to do if you are traded abroad? It’s very cold in Toronto!

"You haven't spoken out and refused all interviews because you don't dare to face them." The reporter from the New York Times was more sharp. After all, this is a 20-year-old young man, so what are you afraid of?

Liu Yan, who was standing behind her, clenched her little fists, and the cannons were aimed at Jiang Chao and the two of them, looking like Alexander.

"I'm the boss, what do I dare to do? This is just the beginning. Real knowledge comes from practice. What's the use of words? Are you right?"

"Is this just the beginning?"

These words made many reporters who were Knicks fans swallow their saliva.

Oh my god, isn't this operation scary now?

"Yes, including the pick swap with the Pacers and our selection this year, we will make arrangements within the next few years."

"You mean...there are more than just these 4 people?"

A reporter heard something interesting, but Jiang Chao only gave him a playful smile.

"Thank you to the boss and general manager for accepting our interview."

Downey Jr., deputy director of the Department of Personnel, ended the interview at the right time.

Reporters no longer ask whether Youth Storm is a tornado or a butterfly flapping its wings. We won’t know until the season starts.

To be honest, Jiang Chao felt that no one in the team was for sale, so why were those four people just those four people who just jumped out?

The reporter also asked Sean Marks some questions about the Spurs, but it was obviously not exciting. The Spurs had a strong team, but he was missing a lot. Messina was not available for interview, so the press conference ended.

There was no trouble at all on the Spurs side.

After all, this is not as impactful as West leaving the Lakers or Riley leaving the Heat. They themselves didn't say anything, and the media naturally couldn't make any news.

The focus is instead on Jiang Chao. This boss with a handsome face and amazing conversational skills held his first press conference and said that his operation has just begun!

Dolan was a little sour, he couldn't say such nice things in the press conference.

However, we must also thank Jiang Chao. After all, he helped him through the urgent crisis, so the TV station also played the video of the Knicks' press conference.

Nate Robinson and other players are still trembling. After so much, is this just the beginning?

Then the next step is to operate on them.

Luo Luo, who had a good time in the Spurs before, is now in internal strife, scolding Nate and Chandler for being impulsive. Now that two Spurs employees have come to the Knicks, he doesn't want to leave.

"Impulse is the devil!" The grumpy Mr. Luo looked at Jiang Chao chatting and laughing on TV and was a little stunned. Is this still the idiot boss?

Anyway, many fans watched this press conference and their first impression of Jiang Chao has changed.

Chinese and Asian fans go even further and regard him as their idol.

........

The finals are in full swing, and after 3-1, we will return to the Lakers' home court to play the final chapter of G5.

The Magic, who had no power to fight back, caused Lakers fans to start celebrating in advance.

The storm is coming, and 30 teams are already preparing for the draft in a week.

10pm.

Jiang Chao made an appointment to call Thunder General Manager Sam Presti in General Manager Sean's office.

Sean Marks is sitting back and about to actually run the team's players.

"Your career has officially begun. We are going to get the No. 3 pick from Sam Presti this time."

hiss!
