NBA: Start with 2 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 8: The youngest and first Chinese NBA owner in history!

"I wonder why it looks so familiar."

The memory came to mind, wasn't this his senior sister Liu Yan?

She looks exactly like those artistic girls on Douyin in later generations. Her hair is dyed a light orange color by the sunlight, which looks very interesting from this angle.

Ponytail, sunshine, school uniform, books.

If he had not inherited the 2 billion, Jiang Chao would probably have lived this kind of life, going back to his college days, reading books, and falling in love.

There is no retouching or stretching of her legs. She is about 165cm tall and has a slight melancholic temperament. Her bare face is youthful and pure, and she is definitely a school beauty.

Jiang Chao is also familiar with her, because she was the freshman she welcomed when Jiang Chao first came here, and later she helped Jiang Chao a lot with his studies, and he became a super academic.

The main reason is that the two of them have similar personalities, but the girl is more boring. She lives a three-point-one-line life in the library, classroom and dormitory, but Jiang Chao doesn't go to the dormitory very often.

"In your senior year, you should be looking for a job, right?"

Jiang Chao, who was about to walk towards the school gate, suddenly had an idea and quickly wanted to call his senior sister.

"Hey!!! Oh my god!!!"

Just as he was about to speak, Brother Asan behind him suddenly howled like a wolf:

"Wtf!!!!!! Jiang Chao is a billionaire!!!"

Everyone looked over.

Brother Asan, a digital major who had been holding his mobile phone, stared at Jiang Chao as if his eyes were about to pop out, and rushed up to hug him:

"Hao, let's be friends!!!"

"What's going on, Jamil Khan?" Many European students asked with a smile, why were they so surprised?

“Look at your phone!! The New York Times web version!!!”

“We also have forums on campus!”

Third Brother excitedly pointed around with his cell phone. A crowd of people surrounded Jiang Chao. When Liu Yan heard the movement, she turned around and took off her earphones to look over. Jiang Chao smiled reluctantly at her because of the way Third Brother held her.

So embarrassing!

But then the expressions of a bunch of people changed, and they all "licked" them, including some rich second-generation students from China:

"Chaozi, oh no, Brother Chao, it's my fault that I copied your test paper before and you didn't have enough time. I'll reflect on it!! Let's be friends from now on!"

"Ah Chao!! My Superman!"

"Achao, I will run errands for you from now on. You don't have to worry about the food. I will deliver it to your mouth on time."

After seeing the news, a freshman girl looked at Jiang Chao and her eyes were wrong. Her eyes were as charming as silk, and she came over sweetly:

"Senior Jiang Chao, I'm not familiar with Columbia University yet. Can you show me your dormitory?"

Jiang Chao is a little numb. I'll go. When will it be announced? But now?

He could tell with his toes what was going on.

Just now, the NBA official website officially released a piece of blockbuster news:

"New York Knicks shares transfer, former owner Dolan transfers all shares!"

"The Knicks were sold to a mysterious boy by Dolan for $1.88 billion!"

Because Jiang Chao is not well-known, his name is in the news:

"The new boss is a sophomore at Columbia University: jiang-chao."

NBA is okay, after all, not everyone is looking at the NBA official website.

But the New York Times and some journalists are quite popular on Facebook.

The New York Times reprinted this news and added some exaggeration:

"The first Chinese NBA owner in history is born! He is also the youngest owner in NBA history!"

Then they also found out that Jiang Chao inherited his money, which gave the editors more room to play.

There must be all kinds of innuendo in the post, which means that the 1.88 billion he bought is too expensive, people are stupid and have too much money, the difficulties faced by foreign bosses, etc.

Dolan's Cable Sports channel also reported the news, detailing the acquisition, and Dolan said goodbye to Knicks fans, although no one wanted to hear it.

However, Dolan still likes the Knicks. He also asked everyone to support the new owner and asked the host to give several examples of foreign owners.

The NBA is a hodgepodge of cultures. Black people can be the top leaders. Naturally, there is no problem for a Chinese to be the owner of a team.

That’s right, too young!

The news spread like wildfire, and Columbia students also learned about it through forums. It is estimated that the whole world will know that the Knicks have changed ownership in a day.

And now.

Jiang Chao finally saw everyone's true reactions.

The international students were talking a lot. The classmate around him suddenly became a billionaire. Several European and American students wanted to fight with him.

"The black chicken has turned into a phoenix! It's great to have a chaebol grandfather!"

"hehe.."

"I'm just a nouveau riche. I have so much money all at once and I don't know how to use it."

"You idiot, I have so much money, I have already followed Buffett to buy stocks."

"I will buy everything I want."

"Vulgar... My friend is on the St. John's University team. He said the Knicks are not worth the money at all."

"What else did you say?"

Some boys don't seem to pay much attention to basketball.

Although there are many universities in New York, most of them, like Columbia, are not strong in the NCAA. Only St. John's University in New York is a strong team in the NCAA. Other basketball results are average. These Ivy League schools are not good at basic basketball, so the basketball atmosphere is not the same.

Not particularly strong.

"They say Knicks fans are very picky and only look at the record."

Everyone is looking at Jiang Chao, can he do this well?? His major is not sports research, but he is the leader in sports?

"Haha, you deserve it, you are so wasteful."

"If you don't keep it in the bank and use it later, you are indeed a fool."

"Can the owner of the Knicks do it too? Are we better than him?"

"Yes, this is the biggest ball market in New York!"

"Brother Chao, do you have any idle positions here? Can I be the finance minister?"

"Brother Chao, you are too young and can't grasp it. Let's help you!" Several seniors' eyes changed.

They felt that Jiang Chao was easy to bully because he was young. He had defrauded others of so much money, so he might as well give it to them.

"How much inheritance is left? I am an economics major and can help you invest."

.............

Some are licking, some are bitter, and some are disgusted with others. College students are college students, and their quality also varies.

Jiang Chao helplessly spread his hands, feeling uncomfortable about becoming famous instantly.

This is no longer rich, this is too rich.

It's like standing at their finish line all of a sudden.

No matter it's sour or cursed.

These students with extremely high IQs know very well that no matter whether Jiang Chao loses money or sells well in the end, the position of owner of a single team may be beyond their reach in their lifetime.

They all have their own celebrity idols, and only they would buy a team to satisfy their sports hobbies... And they all say that they are their idols. There are tens of thousands of students in the school, and it is good to have one in each class.

He could already guess how the news comments would be sarcastic.

After all, he hasn't achieved anything yet.

Dong dong dong...

Suddenly there was a sound like an earthquake.

Then Jiang Chao saw a group of "big men" rushing over in the distance with gleaming eyes!

Columbia basketball teammate!

A group of people almost knelt down to Jiang Chao!

They are all talented basketball students who are far away from the NBA, NBA, and NCAA. As a basketball lover, who doesn’t want to play in the NBA?

So they rushed over to ask Jiang Chao to help them play professional basketball!

"That's one of our own, you know."

"Open the back door, I'm known as Kobe Bryant, and I average 203 points per game!"

"My brother loves white chocolate!"

"I'm better, I won 3010 in Rucker Park."

Jiang Chao said:

"If you have the ability, come to the interview yourself. I don't want to have a gun put on my neck by the Knicks die-hards after I sign you."

Ahem....

A group of people stopped talking.

But at this moment, he discovered that Liu Yan had not left yet, but had been waiting by the side.

Instead, after the basketball team pushed through a bunch of students, she stood a little closer. When Jiang Chao looked at her, she also smiled and waved, made trumpets with her hands, and said in Chinese:

"Hey, congratulations!"

The sound is like a silver bell.

"Thanks."

Hearing the good Chinese, Jiang Chao felt warm in his heart and waved towards her. The next second, he was almost picked up by some big brother O'Neal.

Liu Yan seemed to have sadness hidden under her smile. After Jiang Chao waved, she pursed her lips and smiled, then made a gesture in vain and turned around to continue.

"Don't go!"

Jiang Chao didn't waste any more time and used his strength to break free of "O'Neal". He stepped forward and grabbed Liu Yan's arm from behind, leading her forward:

"Senior, let me tell you something."

There is a domineering smile.

Liu Yan was startled, and the next second she was pulled away to run quickly. She looked at Jiang Chao's handsome and sincere face, felt his strong and painful hand squeezing her arm, and said messily in the wind:

"Ouch...okay...okay."
