Super Evolution of Basketball

Chapter 601 Dollars
The Lakers finally won the championship with a big score of 4 to 1.

In the Yuan Qingshan series, he averaged 28.8 points, 10.2 rebounds, 11 assists and 3 steals per game. He averaged 19 shots per game, shooting 49.8% from the field, 10 three-pointers, 41.9% from the field, and 60.2% from the true field goal.

Adam Silver announced that the FMVP was won by Yuan Qingshan. The Lakers players and staff cheered excitedly. Even some Cavaliers fans who hadn't left the field applauded. Yuan Qingshan deserved this award.

According to the usual practice, Russell should present the trophy to Yuan Qingshan, but after Adam Silver announced the result, he naturally reached out to take the trophy.

Yuan Qingshan took a step forward to block him, then shook Russell's hand and said, "It's an honor to take this honor from you."

Russell smiled from the bottom of his heart. He is old, but he is not old-fashioned. Of course he knows Yuan Qingshan's intentions.

Rachel excitedly held the camera and waved to Yuan Qingshan: "Mr. Star, can we take pictures?"

Yuan Qingshan supported Russell and moved to the side to get closer to Coach Wharton, then held up the trophy and said, "Of course, take a group photo for us."

Click, Rachel pressed the shutter, the scene was great, Yuan Qingshan, Wharton and Russell stood in the center of the frame, Adam Silver didn't even have half an inch of clothes.

Teammates and staff were very excited and took Yuan Qingshan to take a group photo. No one paid any attention to Adam Silver during the whole process. He stood next to the Lakers team, slapped his hands in embarrassment, and then walked away in despair.

After a while, Towns came down to the venue with the support of the team doctor and staff. The Lakers were complete. Everyone hurriedly took a family portrait, and two golden trophies shone among the crowd.

After a series of celebrations, the Lakers players returned to the hotel. They were not in a hurry to go back to Los Angeles, because everyone was too tired and needed to rest for the night. The main event in Los Angeles would start tomorrow, and everyone in Archangel City was waiting for the heroes to return in triumph. During this period of time, there was no need to stop.

After Yuan Qingshan returned to the hotel, he first chatted with Downs until the early hours of the morning. Downs was full of emotions, and even shed tears when he talked about the excitement, which caused Yuan Qingshan to laugh.

Then he returned to his room, the desk lamp in the bedroom was on, the suite was luxuriously decorated, the airtight effect was very good, and there was only the faint sound of the central air conditioner in the whole room.

Rachel was lying on her side on the big bed. She knew Yuan Qingshan had a lot to do, so she obediently came to his room and waited for him, preparing to celebrate, but she accidentally fell asleep while waiting.

Yuan Qingshan saw that Rachel was sleeping soundly, and couldn't bear to wake her up, so he went to the bathroom outside to take a shower, but after coming out, he found Rachel was sitting on the bed and staring at him with big eyes blinking.

"Welcome back, my hero!" Rachel smiled, her long golden hair slid down her shoulders like a waterfall, and she opened her arms to Yuan Qingshan generously.

Yuan Qingshan tonight is not only the hero of Los Angeles, but also Rachel's hero.

Yuan Qingshan deliberately asked: "What kind of courtesy will the hero receive?"

Rachel was laughed at by him, and the shoulder straps slipped off just right...

The Lakers returned to Los Angeles the next day, and what awaited them was an incomparably grand welcome ceremony. Super teams like the Lakers were never stingy with money, and so were the fans. The pick-up ceremony was extremely ostentatious, attracting all the well-known sports media.

In particular, Yuan Qingshan was surrounded by reporters with long guns and short cannons, one problem after another, which made him even worse than playing in the finals.

Fortunately, the Lakers' public relations team is very experienced and decently rescued the players.

Yuan Qingshan got on the bus and complained to Kyle Korver beside him: "I thought playing in the finals was the most tiring. I didn't expect the public relations after winning the championship to be terrible."

Korver smiled, showing his snow-white teeth: "If people from other teams hear your words, I'm afraid it will cause public anger. Now I don't know how many people are willing to bear this burden for you."

"Haha!" Yuan Qingshan nodded: "You are right. What are your plans for the offseason?"

Korver thought for a while and said, "Travel, and then announce your retirement? Forget it, let me and my family enjoy this championship first."

Korver has not had much playing time since the playoffs, because he is old and can only play for a few minutes per game. The offensive end can rely on experience and touch, but he will always be targeted on the defensive end.

Now hearing the word "retirement" from Korver's mouth, Yuan Qingshan is indeed a little sad.

This kind of veteran who came for the championship, mostly retired after realizing his dream. Almost every championship team will have this kind of role. They burnt the last bit of energy for their dreams, and then quietly quit.

"Thank you, Yuan Qingshan, for making my dream come true." Korver extended his palm to Yuan Qingshan.

Palms, not fists, for a slightly more formal handshake than a casual punch.

Yuan Qingshan held it up, and Korver's palm was gentle and steady, the palm that a very standard shooter should have, which complemented his identity.

"I should thank you."

The two smiled at each other.

As a supernova who led the team to win the championship in the second year of entering the league, the new FMVP, Yuan Qingshan has devoted all his energy to interviews, meetings and parades these days.

After a few days, he complained to Rachel, how to deal with these things after winning the championship is more tiring than playing in the finals?

The management of the Lakers has not been idle these days. Taking advantage of the hottest moment of the Lakers, Jenny Buss announced that she would sell the team.

When Gakki told Yuan Qingshan the news, Yuan Qingshan was a little surprised. He knew what Jenny Buss was thinking, but he didn't expect her to be so anxious.

It seems that the matter of enjoying the victory is coming to an end. Yuan Qingshan started the business model, and worked with Gakki and the appraiser she invited to study the details of the acquisition.

The current market value of the Lakers exceeds 35 billion US dollars, and it is still rising because of winning the championship. It is said that the psychological price given by Jenny is 37 billion.

The Bass family holds a total of 55% of the shares, of which Jim Bass holds 5%, and the rest is in the hands of Jenny Bass.

At present, Jim's share looks stable. After all, Jim depends on it to support himself, and it is unlikely to be sold easily.

Therefore, what Yuan Qingshan needs to buy is 50% of Jenny Bass's shares, which is about 18 billion US dollars.

18 billion!
This number is too large for Yuan Qingshan. After two years, Gakki has been operating at full capacity and mortgaged all the assets that can be mortgaged, and they have only managed to make up 1 million US dollars.

Of course, this is already an astronomical figure for a young player who has just played in the professional league for two years. It can even be said that most NBA players will not get so much money throughout their careers.

After all, Yuan Qingshan is only a second-year rookie, his salary and endorsements are negligible, most of the above assets come from the two brokerage companies, almost all thanks to the operation of Gakki.
