Chapter 90

Staples Management's highest office center...

The person in the shadow repeatedly played the message sent from Salt Lake City a few minutes ago, and there was a wicked smile on that exaggerated face...

...

20 minutes later...Salt Lake City Hotel...

As soon as the bus arrived, a large group of media reporters from all corners of the country and even the other side of the ocean surrounded the unstoppable bus, and the front of the hotel was filled with water...

Didn't you have a press conference just now?Ron was at a loss and couldn't figure it out.

"This is..." Even Da Meng spread his arms and shrugged at Ron, expressing that he didn't know.

"Boss, look!" Lisa handed over the IPAD with a look of astonishment on her face, and looked sideways. On ESPN and the official NBA website, there was one of the most eye-catching logos, covering the game just finished and the gimmick of the three-game winning streak...

"What!" Taking a closer look, Ron felt his heart tremble instantly, his eyes were so dark that he could hardly see anything clearly...

It was a magnified LOGO of Yao Ming’s painful expression, and the accompanying news headline even Ron had to praise the editor-in-charge’s unconstrained imagination—“The Houston Earthquake Caused by the Fall of a Giant”.

The article stated that the Rockets had just intercepted the news that Yao Ming's comeback this season was hopeless, and his reimbursement for the season was a certainty.

Then the anonymous person who broke the news is said to have provided some "strong evidence", which was actually a tape of the conversation between the top management of the Rockets...

The three consecutive victories achieved with great difficulty, but after the main general gradually withered and fell, the sky of Aerospace City looked so pale...

Shit!

There are really ghosts!Less than 20 minutes had passed, and before Ron could get angry, he began to look around vigilantly. Many people looked at each other in surprise, and they didn't dare to go anywhere in the car...

Immediately afterwards, a series of phone calls flooded in, and the mobile phones of Ron and his accompanying secretary Lisa could hardly be stopped.

"What about the boss?" Lisa looked at Ron anxiously.

"If you can't pick it up, don't pick it up, and if you have to pick it up, let me perfunctory..."

Really bad!This is really the most embarrassing time Ron has encountered since he took office.A slight mistake will not only affect the confidence that the team has just built up, but will also cause the slightly improving football market to fall into a trough again...

In Ron's mind, he was obviously not a whistleblower who acted recklessly for some living expenses...

Conspiracy, this is a naked conspiracy.

"Tell the players to stay in the bus. No one is allowed to get off the bus without my permission, and they are not allowed to be interviewed by the media!" Ron made a decisive decision, and then grabbed the phone with a gloomy face. It was the special line from Alexander.

"Hmm... BOSS!" He adjusted his mood and said.

"It's very noisy there! Are there many media reporters? Just returned to the hotel?"

There was no tone of accountability in the words, which made Ron slightly relieved.

"Hmm... surprising!"

"This is simply too bad... Luo! You... How are you going to deal with it?"

"...I'm afraid, we are going to conduct a personnel investigation..." Ron hesitated, his eyes shining.

"You already know who spread the rumors?"

My mother knows who it is, and I am still whispering to you here!
It's just that every time he saw Alexander's call, Ron would anxiously think of a series of answers to him "about selling tickets", but this time he suddenly had a flash of inspiration...

"Heh... it does look tricky, but... this may not be a good stealing..." There was a faint smirk on the corner of Ron's mouth.

"...You, what are you talking about?"

"I already have a good response method ... Hi! Seriously, we really want to thank the bastard who broke the news ... It is calm, and if it is flexibly, this is a gift he indirectly sent us, a gift that stimulates the ball market! If I finally got it out by me, I will send him an excellent employee award!" Ron smiled frivolous, and put the phone on the phone. The layered media reporters in front of him seemed to become a basket of glorious gold coins in his eyes ...

This is my first exposure to the media...

It's my first time socializing, flexing my muscles...

Perhaps, this is also the first time I have walked towards my dream stage!
"Hey! What? Wealth? Hey...Ron! Are you listening? Damn it! Don't mess around! Beep..."

"When I attract the attention of all the media, I will let the players go to the hotel to rest..." Ron said to the anxious staff on the side. Seeing his calm look, everyone was inexplicably relieved...

He opened the door of the bus, walked towards the group of media reporters who were like tigers and wolves with a smile on his face...

"Crack! Crack!" As soon as he got out of the car, the sound of taking pictures one after another made the entire hotel crowded, and the frequent flashing lights really made him unable to open his eyes.

It's just that the script didn't go according to Ron's imagination. Plastic news is often not worth more than something more mysterious.

"Hi! Gentlemen! I'm Ron...the manager of the Houston Rockets!" When he said this, all the media reporters were ecstatic...

The crowd suddenly burst into exclamation, and everyone swallowed and looked at this handsome man with squinted eyes and a smile. In just a moment, a torrent of people began to rush towards this oriental man who was walking slowly.

Originally, they just came here to inquire about rumors about Yao Ming's reimbursement. Many people did not expect to be lucky enough to meet this super manager who is still holding his pipa half-hidden.

"Is he Ron?"

"He's so young! His whole body exudes competence and wisdom!"

"He is elegant, well-mannered, and looks like a highly educated oriental gentleman!"

"He's a masculine guy, well-spoken, and speaks perfect American English, and I swear I just saw a magical light in him!"

This attitude, the manager of the Magic East, who has always been low-key and refused any interviews, has been hailed as the most low-key manager in the entire major league, seems to attract people's attention more than Yao Ming's season reimbursement...

Capable people are the focus no matter where they are, bursts of surprise and screams erupted from the crowd, and almost all the media from the United States, China, and even the world poured in. They called Ron's name, crowded, surrounded by longing eyes, and almost forgot the purpose of their trip...

"Hi! Lo... nice to meet you! I'm Mike, a columnist for the New York Times!"

"Hi! Mr. Luo, I'm Fagan, the team reporter for the Houston Chronicle Times..."

"Hi! How are you, Ron...Are you still used to living in the United States? I'm Wang Meng, who is in charge of the Rockets at the Basketball Pioneer!"

Many passers-by also joined this unexpected feast. They looked at Ron, who was focusing on everyone, and gave their thumbs up without hesitation.

"This guy actually took victory away from us!"

"Although you should hate him, you know, for a talented guy, it's hard for you to hate him..."

...

"Ugh! I actually hope that there will come a day when everyone who likes basketball and NBA all over the world will know me and know my name... But before that, I'm not playing big names, showing off, or anything, you know, I'm too busy... And I wasn't ready to be a celebrity at the time..."

— Ron recalled years later in a face-to-face interview with a local radio station in Houston.

...

Surrounded by everyone, he is sought after and cheered like a superstar.Even the players and staff who got out of the car and walked to the hotel one after another cast envious eyes.

"Is our manager that famous?" Ariza said with a smile.

"Uh... I think the more low-key you are, the more respected you are..." Scola said.

"He has a natural charm, a natural charm that attracts the attention of the media..." Old Barry said with a smile.

"Well, what about those guys..." Hayes felt a little jealous.

As far as the eye could see, some media that couldn't get in had caught Xiaode, Lowry, and Mayo one after another, and the questions they asked were not about Yao Ming, but of course about some trivial matters about Ron's life.

Unexpectedly, even the outdated Dameng laughed and flirted with a beautiful female reporter, making the other party very happy...

"Are they? They're just lucky..." The team doctor Jones patted the unwilling Haiye earnestly, and chuckled: "Don't worry, Mr. Chuck, there will be cake, everything will be there..."

Things actually developed in a place that Ron didn't expect, and many media have already left Dayao's injury and other issues out of the blue...

Some even drafted headlines and moved on to writing, the magic manager's demeanor.

He was completely exposed under the lens of all the mainstream media, he looked back and looked around, and he was both right and left, all of this was like a dream.

I can't believe it, I... am I red?

The mysterious boyfriend of a popular female star in Hollywood, the interim general manager of the Houston Rockets of the NBA...With his natural star face and humble and low-key style, the most important thing is to turn decay into magic. His first deal and three consecutive victories after taking office made him famous. His identity as an oriental, and those inspirational stories that are getting more and more outrageous, he seems to be the most discussed celebrity in the media in private!
Humans are more ruthless than plants, and Ron's heart, which has experienced ups and downs, suddenly felt a lot...

He suddenly began to miss the self who sat in the office and studied Western culture all night... the self who was a small employee who looked extremely humble in front of the big stars... the self who couldn't even pay the high mortgage in order to pursue his dream...

But now, the self in focus under all the spotlights is like the most inspirational story, wonderfully performed in the place where miracles are born!
It is true that fame and fame have not come easily...

Suddenly, a ball of anger surged in my chest...

I don't care who my opponent is...

Do you also want to defeat me with this kind of infernal means?

I'm Ron!Super Basketball Manager!
The more you try to hit me, the more I will make your death more embarrassing!

Thinking of this, he suddenly moistened his throat, and focused everyone's eyes...

"Okay, gentlemen...Have you had enough sun exposure? I don't want to turn this place into my private open-air stage..." Ron winked at everyone humorously, and the audience burst into laughter: "There is an intermission in the basketball game, so let's make some preparations... 10 minutes, this hotel is right behind you... I will hold a press conference for the media in an official capacity..."

"Of course, being turned down is an unexpected event that no one can calculate! Now that the matter has come to this point, I can only tell you some 'truth', a truth about 'Yao Ming is about to come back from the line of fire'!"

As soon as the words fell, everyone was shocked...
