Rebirth of My Rocket Dynasty

Chapter 220
The Rockets have once again become the focus, can they not be the focus?

For a freshly-cooked Chinese No. [-] pick, on the second day after the draft, more and more calls from more types of Chinese sponsors came like a flood. The calls from the Rockets' overseas business department and commercial department have been It exploded.

At this time, Tiger was on the phone with Dayao, and Tiger said, "Hi, Dayao, hello, I'm Tiger Jones."

Dayao on the other side of the phone was a little stunned. He was ready to greet his opponent in broken English, but he didn’t expect the other party to communicate with him in such fluent Chinese. He had heard from the bus that the boss of the Rockets could speak Chinese, but he didn’t expect What's more, this guy's Chinese is so proficient, it's really amazing.

Dayao, who was stunned for a few seconds, came to his senses. Although he was only 19 years old, Dayao, who had played in world-level competitions since he was 16, was not very stage-frightened. He said calmly: "Hello, Mr. Jones, I am very happy. talk to you."

Tiger laughed and said: "Okay, okay, don't be so polite, I'm a very casual person, don't be so formal, it doesn't make much sense to be so formal, how is it, buddy, is it very pleasant to hear that I have become the champion?" Happy."

After all, Dayao is a 19-year-old boy. Hearing what the boss said, he smiled shyly and said, "Of course I'm very happy. You don't know. I didn't sleep all night last night. I just found out about Lelai. "

Tiger also laughed when he heard it, he knew the value of Dayao, what kind of player such a big man would become, so Tiger comforted Dayao and said: "Man, don't do this, you have to know that you are the No. [-] pick now Now, you have to be the champion. If you want to be like before, you will lose your identity. You have to know that you are the first Chinese champion, an Asian champion, what kind of concept will this be? You should know. By the way, the staff of the Rockets will arrive in Shanghai tomorrow. I think the staff of the Asian branch of the Rocket Club should be by your side. I think you have already prepared your agent. "

Dayao quietly listened to the chatter of the young boss on the other side of the phone, but he didn't feel bored at all, because this young man who was ten years older than him was telling his little brother like a big brother. When someone asked Dayao about his first impression of the Rockets, Dayao replied without thinking: Very kind, Tiger was like my big brother at the time, describing my future to me, but he He also warned me that if you are selected as the No. [-] pick, you will have the pressure of being the No. [-] pick. Don’t let the pressure crush you, because the NBA is a very competitive league. He doesn’t want his No. [-] pick to become a joke of the league. Losing my own face is also losing face to the Chinese people. Since then, I have made up my mind that the NBA must play in a certain way, so that people can't look down on me, let alone the Chinese.

After talking nonsense with Dayao for a while, Tiger hung up the phone, then drank tea and smoked a cigar leisurely, waiting for Dawson to report to himself in a short time, how many Chinese enterprises Started to pay attention to the Rockets.

After a while, Dawson came in sweating profusely. Tiger looked at Dawson and said with a smile: "Dawson, sit down and rest for a while, I see you are sweating profusely."

After finishing speaking, he asked Dawson to sit down quickly and gave him a glass of mineral water. Dawson didn't hesitate to do it, and the glass of water bottomed out as soon as he raised his neck, and then he let out a long breath and said, "Boss, you It’s really a genius. Did you know that in just one day, nearly 80 companies contacted us, [-]% of which are Chinese companies, including some Japanese and Korean companies. The tone is really too big, and the money is not taken as money, tens of millions of dollars, without even blinking the eyebrows, it is really amazing."

Tiger laughed and said: "Yeah, you don't know these Asians very well. The current Rockets can be said to be the most tender piece of beef. I don't know how many people are staring at them. If Dayao plays well in the NBA With the statistics and achievements, I believe that these benefactors will spend more money from their pockets to please us."

Dawson said in disbelief: "It's really scary. Now I finally know the value of this person. The future No. [-] center in Asia, even the No. [-] center in the NBA, a core player of a team that has won consecutive championships, oh my God , we dug up a cash cow."

Tiger smiled and looked at Dawson without saying a word, but in his heart Tiger murmured to himself: In the last life, that bastard Alexander took advantage of Dayao. You are so capable, but you are so fucking incapable of finding a good substitute for Yao. The tired Yao went home to count the stars at the age of 30. You bastard. In this life, I will not let Yao become the best center in 20 years. Then Even if I live in vain.

In addition to the economic aspect, the overall image of the Rockets in China has risen sharply. Last year, the Rockets defeated the Bulls and made a large number of Chinese fans who like Jordan regard the Rockets as their enemies. But when the first Chinese NBA No. [-] pick appeared, all of Chinese fans have begun to pay attention to the Rockets and even become fans of the Rockets.

And a large number of Chinese reporters swept across the Pacific Ocean like locusts, directly killing Houston, and a huge wave of reporters appeared in Houston.

On the third day after the draft, the receptionist of the Rockets' news team was completely dumbfounded. Nearly a thousand Chinese reporters appeared in groups in the Rockets' office area.

The reception lady is already stupid, she can speak some Chinese, but after facing nearly a thousand Chinese reporters, she is completely useless, when she called Dawson with trembling hands, and Dawson also told the news After Tiger, Tiger was also a little taken aback.

After thinking for a while, Tiger said: "Well, I guess our press conference hall can't hold it, you go to the arena now, make a simple arrangement right away, and then let these people go there, I will go there right away, Hold a press conference, otherwise, these Chinese journalists can eat us."

After hanging up the phone, Tiger patted Amy, who was still sleeping beside him, and Amy said sleepily, "Tiger, who's calling."

Tiger smiled softly: "It's Dawson's call, you know, the Chinese No. [-] pick we selected has become the focus, and those reporters in China have already blown up that big man, but I didn't expect these Chinese The uncrowned king of China has come to the United States so quickly, these people are really blind if they don't become paparazzi."

Amy, who had already woken up, gave Tiger a white look, and said, "Stop making up other people's messes, and go quickly."

Tiger responded, got up and went to wash up.

Amy also got up to pick up the phone and told the kitchen to prepare breakfast for Tiger.

After a while, Tiger had finished washing, and saw that Amy was also changing clothes and washing.

Tiger asked strangely: "Amy, what do you do, do you go out too?"

Amy Jiao said with a smile: "I want to show you what the Chinese reporters you mentioned are like, and I'm afraid that you have fallen into the trap of others."

Tiger listened to the black thread at one end, and said with a smile: "As for me, there is a beautiful woman by my side, who is with me every day, what kind of beauty trick is useful to me."

Amy gave Tiger a coquettish look, and then continued to wash up.

After the two of them finished washing and changing their clothes, the breakfast in the kitchen was ready, and after they had a loving breakfast, they went straight to the Compaq Center by car.

When the two came to the Compaq Center, Dawson was already anxiously waiting for Tiger at the door.

After seeing Tiger leading Amy to get out of the car, Dawson said anxiously: "Boss, you are finally here, and now those Chinese reporters have gathered a group, my God, they brought so many people Well, some American journalists also came after hearing the news, and some Japanese and Korean journalists also came.”

Tiger said a little strangely: "I choose Chinese, Japanese and Koreans to join in the fun."

Dawson didn't know what was going on, so he could only shake his head helplessly.

Tiger thought for a while and said, "It doesn't matter, anyone can come, and we will entertain everyone today."

After speaking, holding Amy's soft little hand, the two walked into the gate of Compaq Center. When they came to the arena, a familiar American reporter greeted Tiger. Greg smiled and waved.

I have to say that Tiger and Amy are really very stylish now. They were holding hands. When they walked in from the door, quite a few Chinese reporters could not believe that such a young pair of golden boys and girls is now the Rockets. The boss and future boss wife.

Walking to the temporary news stand, he said with a smile: "It is my honor to be able to gather with so many friends from the press today, but let me state in advance, what we are talking about today about the Rockets, if you ask wow personal questions , I won’t answer at all.”

All the reporters chuckled for a while, which eased the atmosphere on the field a little.

Immediately, Tiger said: "Dear domestic journalists, it is an honor for the Rockets to have so many Chinese journalists here today. I think the first three questions can be left to the Chinese journalists? They are guests after all. "

The American reporters working here agreed with this, but some Japanese and South Korean reporters expressed dissatisfaction. Some Japanese reporters shouted: "Why don't you let the Japanese reporters ask three questions first, we are also guests."

Tiger raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't seem to have invited you Japanese reporters, right? Besides, the champion of our Rockets is Chinese, not you Japanese, right?"

Tiger has won the favor of most Chinese journalists with a single sentence. After all, some issues between China and Japan have not yet reached a conclusion, which makes many Chinese very upset. How can an American not give Japan It saves face, which makes many Chinese feel very enjoyable.

And the complaining Japan was also suppressed by some reporters in the country with a murderous look.

When the South Korean reporter saw such a thing, he immediately became a coward. After all, such a rich American is not something ordinary people can provoke.

With Tiger's gesture of invitation, a very exciting press conference began.
