Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

This is not because Yang Dongxu is rich, but after MP3, this is another expansion channel for him to enter the international stage. If he can really win a basketball club and a football club and achieve good results.

As long as we integrate a little bit of Chinese elements into these international superstars, such as putting some Chinese patterns on the jerseys, or Chinese characters, etc., this will have a greater impact than building Confucius Institutes everywhere, and the possibility of being excluded is very high.

Small.

After all, as the owner of a club, it is normal to add your own preferences to the players. Moreover, the good results achieved by the club also help basketball and football expand their influence in China. They also pay so much tax every year and help their industries continue to expand their markets.

.This little 'flaw' is nothing in the face of huge profits.

Yang Dongxu did some research before coming to the United States, so after flying to the United States, he went straight to his target - the Philadelphia 76ers.

The first reason why he chose the Philadelphia 76ers was naturally because of his poor performance. Ever since he finished fifth in the Eastern Conference, his performance has gotten worse year by year.

In the 1991-92 season, it went from fifth in the Eastern Conference to fifth in the bottom in the Eastern Conference. Then it went directly to the second to last in the 92-93 season. In the 93-94 season, it worked hard and became fourth from the bottom. In the 94-95 season, it returned to the bottom.

It was second to last, then it was first from last in the 1995-96 season, and it was second to last again in the 1996-97 season this year.

The 76ers have not even made it to the playoffs for six consecutive years, and the results are simply shocking. The reason why I chose it is naturally because of the second reason, which is one of Yang Dongxu's favorite NBA stars, Allen Iverson.

Last year, in 1996, he was won by the 76ers with the No. 1 pick.

For this man who has never won a championship in NBA history, but is a slightly uncrowned king. Yang Dongxu didn't know how many times he clapped his thigh to celebrate him while watching the game at night.

It's a pity that this loyal 'answer' lived a miserable life in his later years. Although he was still very capable at the end of his career, the team that had always been loyal to him chose to trade him away at the end of his career. This is undoubtedly a sentiment towards him.

Great harm.

When the 76ers traded Allen Iverson at the end of his career, I don’t know how many fans scolded him for being a cold-blooded animal. Even his own fans felt that the club owner was committing a crime and should go to jail, but in the end he still failed.

prevent this tragedy.

Philadelphia is located in the southeastern part of Pennsylvania, USA. It is the fifth largest city in the United States and is also known as the "City of Friendship". It was once the capital of the United States before Washington was designated as the capital.

The retail industry here is extremely developed, with more than 20,000 retailers, wholesalers, and commercial employees accounting for nearly one-fifth of the city's total population, and Pander Schneider, the boss of the Philadelphia 76ers, is one of the largest wholesalers.

.It is also the reason why he can afford a basketball club.

It's just that Schneider has been very unhappy recently. His business was originally going smoothly, but he recently encountered a bad thing. I don't know where his competitors found the evidence, and he was prosecuted for tax evasion.

What's even worse is that while he is involved in lawsuits, his competitors are also attacking the industries under his control. In addition, he went to a nightclub to have a party and drank too much and took a girl to show off and was caught by his wife. He felt that his

This period of my life is absolutely terrible.

In fact, when someone first expressed their intention to buy the team from him, Schneider refused without thinking. Why are you kidding me? The team has been in ruins for so long and finally got a genius with the No. 1 pick. This year, the No. 1 pick was even more criticized.

The best rookie proved that he did not make a mistake and really found a treasure.

He was also thinking about whether to invest more money to make up for the team's shortcomings and see if he could improve the team's impressive record for so many years. How could he change hands with the team?

But when the person who wanted to buy the team expressed his willingness to buy the team again last week, he hesitated. Although he still didn't want to sell the team, the reality forced him to consider it.

If you have money to recruit good basketball players, they will perform well and the team will make money. This is a virtuous circle. If you have no money, the team will perform poorly.

Although I have found a treasure, if I don't rely on such a treasure without strong support, I will be deceiving myself if I want to achieve good results. Basketball is a sport for five people. Although one person can become a god, he cannot play alone.

So with the current financial constraints, he definitely doesn't have a lot of money to invest in the team, so this year's record is second to last, and maybe it will still be the same next year.

At the same time, no matter whether he wins the lawsuit or not, the money for back taxes will definitely be indispensable. Coupled with the issue of property division due to his wife's divorce, not only can he not be able to invest a large amount of money in the team, but he also has to continue to pay a sum of money himself.

"Maybe selling now is a good choice." Looking at the gloomy sky outside, Schneider couldn't help but muttered while sitting in the cafe.

Although it will definitely be more profitable to make the team perform better and then sell it, but that requires a large investment cost. Although the team's performance is poor now, Iverson is very good, and people will definitely see him.

As the core, we hope to build a strong team. In this case, the price can be discussed carefully.

"It would be great if the team wins the championship again, so I don't have to invest anymore and can still make money from it." Schneider couldn't help but think to himself.

When did the team win the championship before? Well, the earliest one was in 1954, when he was still a child.

The most recent championship was in 1982, more than ten years have passed. He has almost forgotten the content of the celebration ceremony when he won the championship.

Reminiscing about the past glory, Schneider put away the contemplation on his face because the guests had arrived. Although he already knew that the person who was interested in his team was a Chinese when he contacted him before, he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw Yang Dongxu.

.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Hello Mr. Schneider, nice to meet you." Yang Dongxu smiled and stretched out his hand.

"Hello, Yang?" After Schneider felt his voice was a little awkward when pronouncing the words, he glanced at the two bodyguards behind him and put away a trace of contempt in his heart.

Although there were people with bodyguards when they went out at this time, it was the first time he had seen two tall white bodyguards standing behind a Chinese. And in most people's perception, although they looked down upon the Chinese, they had to

I admit that all Chinese who can afford white bodyguards are rich.

And with his eyes, he could see at a glance that these two white bodyguards were not the kind of people who were hired to make up the numbers, but were really elites. His father had such bodyguards before, but later his father got old and he didn't.

I liked being followed all the time, so I quit my job.

"Maybe it can be sold for a good price." After judging that the young man in front of him might have some wealth, Schneider thought in his heart.

After the two sat down, Yang Dongxu casually ordered a cup of coffee and said, "I have made it clear to you about the contact person. I wonder what Mr. Schneider thinks about it?"

Before coming to the United States, Yang Dongxu quoted a price of US$50 million to the 76ers team. The other party was obviously attracted by this price, otherwise he would not want to talk and he would not come to the United States.

Schneider likes Yang Dongxu's directness a little. After all, he is in trouble now and has no time to chat with a Chinese boy. "The price is too low."

"No, no, no, Mr. Schneider, I think this is already a high price." Yang Dongxu said, shaking his head.

If you put it in future generations, if you say 50 million to buy an NBA team, it will probably be taken as a provocation. But now the price is definitely high. Perhaps if it is placed on the top teams in the league, the price is too low.

a little.

But it is definitely not low for the 76ers, even if Iverson is added, the price is high. You must know that Jordan, who is currently winning consecutive championships, had a previous salary of more than 3 million. As for the current 30 million, it is a special case and cannot be used as a reference.

There are now 29 teams in the league, and the total revenue they bring to the NBA is less than 10,000 US dollars. To win a team like the 76ers, who are at the bottom, is definitely showing their sincerity. After all, this is 1997, not 2007.

Year.

"But Iverson performed very well this year, didn't he?" Schneider couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

I originally thought that when I met a young man with a lot of money, the price of 50 million was indeed a high price. Who would have thought that the other person was not as impulsive as I thought.

"So I offered a high price of 50 million, and I am also very optimistic about Iverson. If there is no him, I think you can accept it even if I offer 30 million, right?"

"This..." Schneider was speechless.

Obviously, he also knows that Jordan's sky-high contract of 30 million yuan cannot be used as a standard reference. Yang Dongxu can give Iverson a valuation of 20 million yuan, which is already more optimistic about Iverson's price than him.

But if the team is sold for 50 million, he will be very unwilling. After all, this is the brainchild of two generations of his family. Even if this crystallization seems a bit disappointing at the moment, there is a bit of hope now, right?

"If Mr. Schneider hasn't made a decision yet, you can think about it for a while. In fact, I also want to consider it. I am really interested in acquiring an NBA team, so it is not just the 76ers and the 76ers who are quoting, for example

He said that I have also made offers to the Nets and Mavericks, and I will be flying around to meet with their bosses in the past two days."

Yang Dongxu directly stated how much he was willing to acquire a team. But this point that could have been grasped is not good news for Schneider now.

Because recently the owners of several teams with poor performance in the NBA are interested in selling their teams. This matter is related to Jordan's sky-high salary, because many players who think they are also superstars also want to increase their salaries, which will also drive up the league average.

Salaries are rising together.

Naturally, bosses don't want to see a salary increase for their employees, especially if it can't bring them greater profits. So many team owners use this method to express their dissatisfaction, or they really want to take it away.

It doesn’t matter if the money goes away.

The young man in front of him now has several options to buy the team, and the price he quoted is indeed very sincere. It is really uncertain whether the other party will come back after leaving.
