Legend Raiders

Chapter 65
The next morning.

Newspapers in the sports section, like indiscriminate bombardment, regard the Rockets as the biggest dark horse of the season.

After all, in the first few games of this season, they have achieved a record of 5 wins and 3 losses, which has temporarily placed them in the top five positions in the Western Conference.

and.

I don't know if someone deliberately fueled the flames and wrote a lot about the Rockets' victory over the Heat, as if they were the second favorite team to win the championship this season.

of course.

Under the bombardment of all kinds of praise and exclamation, some newspapers from other cities used yesterday's press conference to add fuel to the flames, which caused a wave of rhythm that was very unfavorable to the Rockets. .

such as.

Qin Tao was described by those reporters as an unyielding fighter without knowing it at all, using his iron fist to crush all kinds of injustice.

More exaggeratedly.

Someone actually described Morey and Alexander as villains who did all kinds of evil, using extremely bad methods to suppress a gifted child.

Honestly.

Their rhythm is very unfavorable to the Rockets, and these slanderous remarks are enough to bring huge troubles to the Rockets who have just played well.

In the team office building.

Darrell Morey, who was always smiling, was putting down the newspaper in his hand, while frowning silently.

For these remarks from the outside world, he can completely ignore them, or even put them aside directly, and do what he should do.

But since it is in a commercial league, if it does not pay attention to the direction of the media, it will inevitably bring a lot of difficulties to the future development of the team.

First of all.

Regardless of what those people say is true or not, once the rhythm that is not conducive to the team is brought up, which star wants to come to such a team?
Second.

If Morey isn't at the right time, cryptically or explicitly responding to something, there's going to be some dissonance on the team alone.

such as.

If the mysterious power from the other side of the ocean suddenly erupted from the Internet, I am afraid that if they have a friendship with Yao Ming, countless keyboard warriors will personally destroy the concept of the Rockets as the default home team.

After all, the Rockets have already tasted the unparalleled sweetness from that mysterious oriental country, and they never thought of giving up this super treasure full of gold.

FUCK! !
Darrell Morey uttered a rare swear word, raised his hand and slapped himself hard on the back of the head. He regretted the press conference against Qin Tao some time ago to the point of wanting to kill him.

He, who has always been shrewd, would actually make such a big mistake. If he didn't hesitate to give Qin Tao the greatest support regardless of what the outside world said, I'm afraid there won't be so many brothers playing now.

How to do? ?

Morey frowned and thought of a solution, while his palms instinctively reached for the phone on the table.

moment.

Morey hesitated for a moment, and slowly pressed a string of numbers.

But when the last number was about to be pressed, Morey's expression was startled, and he suddenly felt a little dazed: "I don't seem to have met Qin Tao's manager?"

At this time, the door was slowly pushed open, and Leslie Alexander entered the room.

Look at Morey.

Alexander suddenly frowned, thinking of today's public opinion, he couldn't help but said: "Darrell, have you prepared a way to deal with the current remarks?"

Morey smiled bitterly, shook his head, and said, "There is a way, but now I'm in trouble."

Alexander raised his eyebrows and asked, "Tell me?"

Morey rubbed his temples, and while pouring a glass of whiskey for his boss, he spread his hands helplessly and said, "As for the public opinion from the outside world, the best way now is to make a fuss about Qin Tao, after all, my previous behavior Really bad."

Alexander took a sip, nodded and said, "To be honest, this child is really shocking."

Morey continued: "In view of Qin Tao's entry into the league, the most appropriate way is to release the news immediately. We will provide him with a contract that can suppress those public opinions after the season is over!"

Alexander agreed: "This is indeed the best way. I believe our efforts must be worth the money."

however.

Morey was still frowning: "Just now, I was ready to contact our trusted reporters and send them some news that is beneficial to us first, but"

Alexander was a little surprised. Morey, who had dealt with countless troubles over the years, was also in such a difficult situation. It seemed that the problem this time was not a small one.

Morey didn't keep Alexander waiting long. He smiled helplessly and said, "Although we can disclose the news, because Qin Tao doesn't seem to have an agent, we can't follow the established plan at all, let alone."

Looking at Morey with a suddenly bitter expression, Alexander smiled wryly and shook his head: "What's more, after what happened before, we don't know whether Qin Tao will agree to our contract extension!"

"Also!" Morey patted his forehead with a headache: "If Qin Tao doesn't choose to renew his contract, this year's Jeremy Lin and Omer Asik may be the epitome of Qin Tao in a year and a half."

Alexander couldn't help cursing in a deep voice: "Damn it! Why couldn't we grasp Qin Tao's true strength in the first place!"

Morey said with a face of self-reproach: "I sincerely apologize to you, this incident is entirely my responsibility!"

Alexander waved his hand impatiently: "It's not your fault! We just trust those damn "real news" too much."

Since then.

Alexander said bluntly: "The matter has developed to this point, we can only look at the situation and Qin Tao's performance on the field for a while."

Morey hesitated, and asked tentatively, "Should we check Qin Tao's tone?"

Alexander frowned: "It's worth trying, but don't arouse his disgust."

Morey nodded and said, "Okay! I will talk to him cautiously."

thereafter.

After sending Alexander away, Morey did not make his plan immediately, but made some arrangements for the team's public relations team in order to be able to deal with the troubles that those public opinions brought to the team.

After finishing these arrangements, Morey stood in front of the window with a glass of bourbon in hand, looking a little hesitant.

moment.

He seemed to have made up his mind. He drank the whiskey in one gulp, turned around and returned to his desk.

After pressing a series of phone numbers, Morey waited patiently for the other party to connect.

After a few prompts, an elegant and humorous voice sounded from the receiver.

"Hey Darrell, have you changed your mind and want to go to that Strip club with me?"

Morey couldn't laugh or cry, but then he said seriously: "Robo, James (Harden) has met our highest expectations, and he makes me very excited."

"Thank you for your compliment, but I think you must have more important things to say, such as the change of the team??"

Dissatisfaction flashed in Mo Lei's eyes, and then he said meaningfully: "As a top broker, you don't seem to be keen on business development!"
