Chapter 183 [Renew the contract with the Raptors, the championship belongs]

The Raptors got together for a dinner to celebrate a great season and then went on vacation.

Yang Rui has started his otaku life, and he doesn't plan to watch the next NBA games, so he needs to relax.

Stana prepares for the exam, spends every day in the reading library, and doesn't have much time to date him.Yang Ruixian was bored, so he talked to Stana and went to Silicon Valley.

Facebook is already popular in the industry, and other companies are one step behind them in everything they do. Minions, with their distinctive features, can always grab the hearts of users.

Yang Rui discussed with Thomas Bentley, and proposed the Minion user profile page, setting up a message board, and the idea of ​​building a Facebook social platform.

After considering QQ space and blogs, Yang Rui decided to keep it simple. The "Facebook" set in his previous life was like Renren and Kaixin.com in China.

The social platform is separated from the Minions. With the Minion account, you can log in directly to the platform, and you can also log in to your mailbox, games, etc. in the future.

This kind of platform is not complicated. Other users who have the right to browse a user's full profile page can see the user's wall, photos, diaries, messages, etc.

For more advanced Weibo and WeChat, Yang Rui plans to leave these ideas for later upgrades.

After making a plan, the two went to New York to visit the Johnson family.

My daughter has met friends of the opposite sex who are much older. As a father, it is impossible to ignore it. It is not like a father-in-law and a son-in-law, but just have a meal together.

Carsten Johansson, an architect who works in architectural design, divorced Scarlett's mother, Melanie, because she was too busy to live together.

Yang Rui chatted with him, and unexpectedly had a lot of common language.

The difficulty of architecture is prohibitive.People who really like it are because of its precise calculation, because of its rigor, because of its beauty, and because of its unrestrained imagination.Basketball coaches also need to be calculated, rigorous, and imaginative. They also need to build a lineup.

The "Friends" linked series has been approved by NBC Radio, and it is planned to shoot this episode in the summer and broadcast it after the sixth season of Las Vegas Story.In this way, "Friends" will have one more episode than Yang Rui's previous life.

Speaking of career, Melanie asked: "Your company's software is doing very well. Have you considered financing expansion?"

"There is no such plan for the time being." Thomas smiled. "For Facebook, we don't plan to make profits in the past two years. We will try our best to capture the hearts of users and build an image."

Carsten and his ex-wife looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

Making a good product is very important for brand building and service. Although it is a company run by young people, it has mature ideas and long-term vision.

For Yang Rui, this is normal. In 2015, there was a news report that the amount of information people received every day was equivalent to what the ancients saw and heard in a year.As a future person, with the amount of information, you will be well-informed and infinitely inspired.

Carsten asked: "Facebook's users have already beat ICQ and MSN. What number of users do you predict in the future?"

"5 million." Thomas smiled. "I believe Facebook has the potential."

Hunter and Scarlett didn't quite understand what this number meant, and they didn't realize it.As everyone knows, in the eyes of their parents, Yang Rui and Thomas have become bigger and bigger.

If it is true, the listing is certain, and the net worth of the two will become very terrifying, which is definitely not comparable to the Johnson family.

In fact, they still underestimated Facebook, and Yang Rui didn't think it would be worse than what he did in his previous life.According to statistics, the number of Facebook users exceeded 2015 billion in one day on August 8, 24, which means that one out of every seven people in the world uses Facebook, which is almost equal to the population of China.

After making an appointment to make a cameo appearance on the reality show, Yang Rui and Thomas returned to Toronto to finalize a new coaching contract.

The owner of the Raptors didn't sting, and offered a three-year, $3 million contract. He was already paid as much as the first-class coaches in the league, and if he went one step further, he was a famous coach.

As soon as the signing situation was announced, many media immediately raised doubts, thinking that although the Raptors performed well last season, Yang Rui was too young and his performance may not be stable. This signing is simply disrupting the market.

The Raptors management thinks it's worth it. They have a need for a better record. If Yang Rui is released, I am afraid that the players in the team will be dissatisfied.If Yang Rui doesn't perform better, they can bear it in just three years.

Holding a press conference, Yang Rui directly stated his goal. "I love this team, the management's choice is absolutely right, I will prove that I am worth the money, next season."

The reporter asked: "What is the goal of the Raptors next season?"

"The championship, not winning the championship is a failure for me."

This season is not over yet, Yang Rui has already scheduled the championship for next season, and it was on the news the next day, and he was arrogant and ignorant by many celebrities and coaches.

Most fans also felt that the shortened season was definitely not the same as the normal season, only the Raptors fans were excited about it, they liked the declaration.

The Raptors management also liked it, showing that they want to rush to the championship, and it will be easier to poach people in the free market in the summer.

The NBA Finals were quickly decided.

As Yang Rui expected, the Spurs had an obvious home advantage, winning two games in a row and flying to Miami with the advantage.In the second game, the entire Heat team, which was 80-67 defense against the Spurs, became blacksmiths.

At the home of the Heat, the Spurs won another game, leading 3-0, and the game was no longer suspenseful.

In the Eastern Conference finals, because the Raptors attacked at a faster pace, the Heat could still be led to attack.The finals are all defensive teams, and the scene is extremely ugly.

What annoyed Stern the most was that the Heat, who were behind in the total score, were not willing to be swept away, and they began to strengthen their confrontation again.

PJ Brown threw Avery Johnson, Mourning elbowed Duncan, the scene was almost out of control, Popovich cursed on the sidelines.

In the previous two seasons, the Heat were eliminated after fights. This time, they had a bigger stage and perfectly demonstrated what savagery is.They won the fourth game at home, but it completely angered Stern.

Stern also kind of hates the upstart Spurs, playing too ugly, too disgusting.

The president called a meeting with management and, next season, vowed to move the league toward offense and winning.A team like the Heat must never let them go far in the playoffs.

In the fifth game, the Heat failed to get the preferential treatment at the home whistle. Duncan made the Heat uncomfortable regardless of the low singles or the high pick-and-roll. He scored 28 points, 13 rebounds, 4 assists and 5 blocks, leading the team to an 89-75 victory and became the 1999 championship. .

Duncan was the leader of the team as soon as he entered the league, producing luxurious data.This is his second season, averaging 23.2 points, 11.5 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 0.8 steals and 2.6 blocks per game in the playoffs, and won the Finals MVP.

However, Duncan is too ugly to play, and there are only a few moves back and forth. His popularity is far from that of Carter, and there are not many fans who like him.

The two defensive teams posted their lowest ratings since 1982 in the Finals, at 11.1.

Jordan's first season after retirement was a failure for the NBA.
