Arthur’s high-profile hype really made the media in New York cheer up. For the media, the rich and powerful are tearing apart each other and arguing with each other. This is undoubtedly a huge gimmick, which can guarantee the sales of newspapers. After all, ordinary The people are very interested in this.

In particular, Arthur’s status as an English earl and Taylor Swift’s boyfriend are both news points that people are curious about. What's more, they are talking about the local tyrants of Xiong Country. The American people collectively become the people who eat melons and begin to move their small benches. It's lively.

The Nets, which has become a super-bad team, have become the focus of attention of all parties for a while because of the battle between Arthur and Rokholov.

As Arthur expected, as soon as his ridicule appeared in the newspapers, Rokholov faced the challenge of the media, boasting unabashedly in Haikou, saying, "I just want to build a championship team, I will set myself After the five-year time limit, the Nets will not win and I will not get married."

As for Arthur’s counterattack, he was even more wise to start from his love of sports. He said that although he was not a professional athlete, but he especially liked basketball since he was a child, it can be said that he is a hardcore basketball fan, playing pro-people cards, he also knows. , Xiong Guo's background is his biggest obstacle to entering the NBA.

All over the United States, there are naturally doubts about the bear country and the people from the bear country. He is very clear about this. The reason why he invested money in the United States to open up the US market is not without the idea of ​​preventing certain things from happening.

It's just a pity that, now that he knows where his weakness is, Arthur will naturally not let go of the opportunity to get into trouble. Through David Stern, Arthur got a call from other team owners in the NBA.

"...Mr. Gilbert, listen to what he said. He wants to build a superstar team. His joining will completely disrupt the entire league. He will wave a check to buy superstar players everywhere. Everyone knows that the NBA is just one. Business, as long as the price is right, those superstars will waver and dance with the checks.

Next, many superstars will become free agents, including your team’s James, don’t you worry?"

Arthur was lying on the sofa with his feet on the coffee table, a stack of newspapers on his lap, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, holding his mobile phone with a smile, and facing the Cleveland Cavaliers general manager Daniel Gilbert on the other end of the phone. Alarmist said.

Arthur knew that the most important thing to prevent Xiong’s native tyrants from joining the league was to work hard at the league’s internal meetings, and to persuade these savvy team owners, it would be meaningless to make a fuss about the background of Xiong’s native tyrants. For businessmen like them, nationality is not a problem at all. What they consider is whether the other party’s joining will bring benefits to the alliance and whether it will threaten themselves.

And Rokhorov hopes to follow his compatriot Abramovich's way to build the Premier League giants, playing Jinyuan Sports, undoubtedly all NBA team owners with superstar players should hate most.

In particular, the Cavaliers where the little emperor James is, the Raptors where Bosh and the Heat where Wade is, are the most troublesome, because these three All-Star players immediately ushered in free status.

Not to mention that these players can't face the YOUHUO with big checks when they have a contract. Now that they are back free, it is even more conceivable that they joined the Nets for money.

This is undoubtedly the last thing these team owners want to see!

Therefore, Arthur put the goal of public relations first on the Cavaliers, Raptors and Heat three teams with deep pain.In fact, just as Arthur thought, Daniel Gilbert was very anxious and depressed in the face of the little emperor James, who had been clamoring for reinforcements and fighting for the championship, and was arguing to leave without reinforcements.

Everyone knows that the reason why the Cleveland Cavaliers are like this is all because of the league superstar LeBron James in the team. If he really jumps out of his contract, does not renew his contract with the Cavaliers, and leaves the Nets, then he really Will be pissed off.

As for whether he will leave or not, Daniel has no doubts at all. As the British Earl on the other side of the phone said, the alliance is a business, there is nothing for sale, loyalty.

In the face of large checks, coupled with the promise of superstars, LeBron James, who wants to win the championship, has a great chance of joining.

"Indeed, his joining will inevitably break the economic balance of the league, but the arrogant idea of ​​using money to hit a championship team is an act of ignorance that has not experienced NBA culture."

Hearing Daniel's deep words, the smile on Arthur's face became brighter. He knew that the other party had been persuaded by him and began to hate the instability factor of Xiong Country's local tyrant.

"Hehe, in my opinion, in the NBA, with stars and a reasonable lineup, good results are a matter of course. As long as you find the way to survive in the NBA and grasp every summer, any team that wants to bottom out is not Out of reach.

If you blindly accumulate superstars, you may be crazy for a while, but it is definitely not a long-term road. It is the kingly way to cultivate your own star, and build a championship team around your own star. I think about the star of others and dig the wall. I think that It was the act of a thief.

I prefer to see that the team moves from a trough to a peak in my own hands, and then there is a sense of accomplishment and infinite glory!"Arthur said earnestly.

"Yes, I very much agree with Your Excellency's point of view. It seems that we are a kind of person, Your Excellency Bolin, rest assured, I will stand on your side and welcome you to join the alliance!"

"Haha, thank you. If it's convenient, we can meet and have a good chat. As you know, I don't have any friends in the United States..." Arthur invited with a smile and squinted eyes.

"Hehe, of course there is no problem. This is my honour. The NBA Draft in May is about to begin. See you in New York!"

"Okay, see you in New York!" Arthur hung up the phone with a brilliant smile and laughed happily.

"Haha, with the first ally, can the second one be far away?"

With that, Arthur continued to call the CEO of Maple Leaf Sports Entertainment, the owner of the Raptors.

"Hello, this is Arthur Boleyn..."

When Arthur began to pull allies around to prevent the bears from joining the league, the New York City Forest Group and the current owner of the New Jersey Nets Labrus Ratner fell into a huge depression.

Others are happy because there are two competing to buy, but he is on the contrary. When he sees that the wind direction of media reports is becoming more and more unfavorable for the local tyrants who are willing to increase prices, he is a little worried, even if he finally puts the team on It was sold to Rokhorov, and it was not approved by the alliance. In that case, it would really be crying in the toilet.

Thinking of Arthur's young face with an elegant smile, La Bruce shook his head dumbfoundingly. It was too much toss, and things just went sour in the past few days!

Nima, even the British side has already begun to report on this incident. What is even more speechless is that many British celebrities and dignitaries have come forward to speak, saying that they are very much looking forward to the British home team in the NBA.

The British Basketball Association has even stood up and spoke out to support the acquisition of Earl Arthur, saying that this will play a huge role in promoting the promotion of basketball in the UK. For a while, as things continue to ferment, simple business activities have changed. Become an extremely complicated thing.
