NBA: Start the water cooler and reach the Hall of Fame

At the same time, Kenan Kent, the king's fat scout, also returned to the team's residence in Saramento. After a night's rest, he knocked on the team manager's door leisurely.

With general manager Jeff Petrie's approval, Kent hit the doorknob, opened the door and walked in.

Kings general manager Jeff Petrie, a middle-aged man with curly brown hair and a bulbous nose, was selected by the Portland Trail Blazers with the eighth pick in the first round of the 1970 NBA draft and was selected in his rookie season NBA Rookie of the Year, two-time NBA All-Star.

He is also the first person in NBA history to win the best rookie and best manager at the same time.

When Petrie saw Kent come in, he stood up and shook hands with Kent, and then motioned for Kent to sit down on the chair in front of the desk.

"Kenan, I'm very sorry for giving you such an urgent task, this time it's hard work for you, running so far!"

Kent quickly waved his hand and said, "Jeff, your vision is really good. The Li Kaiming you mentioned is a very talented player. If we can select him, he will definitely go further in the playoffs!"

Petrie laughed, "I just noticed this young man when I happened to watch TNT's program that day, but I only heard about it, so I sent you to Tulsa for an on-site investigation. Listen to what you said, You think highly of this player!"

Ken nodded, "Yes, this guy has all the qualities of an excellent insider, his basic skills are extremely solid, and his physical talent is also very good. This is the scouting report I managed to get. Take a look." A few sheets of A4 paper were handed over.

Petrie took it over, looked down and looked carefully, "Hmm... He is 2 meters tall, with a wingspan of 10 meters? The wingspan is very good, and the weight is less than 2 kilograms? Relatively speaking, it is still a bit thin, but it is harmless, and the bounce is also good. Very good, basically they are all the best in the same position..."

Kent echoed, "Yes, this guy's physical talent is extremely good in the interior. It doesn't matter that he is light in weight and weak in confrontation. It only takes one season to get into the league. The only doubtful thing is his follow-up. Tendon, I don't know if it can withstand the test of the professional league..."

Petrie rubbed his chin with his fingers, "Well, this is a problem. The taller people are more likely to suffer from injuries. He has suffered serious injuries, and according to my observation, the bodies of yellow races are not very resistant to injuries." Bar?"

Ken nodded, "Although the sample size is a bit small, Asians are relatively prone to injuries. After Yao Ming gained weight, he suffered a lot of injuries and was reimbursed for this season. Yi Jianlian, another high pick from Huaguo, also suffered a lot. Plagued by injuries, only played 52 games this season..."

Petrie's brows were tightly knit together, forming an exaggerated fleshy ball between his brows, he thought for a while in silence, and then said, "This is a lottery ticket, let's not make a decision lightly, or go ahead After observing for a while, March Madness just started, if he has enough strength to enter the NBA, I believe he should perform accordingly!"

-

Huaguo, Fujian Province, Hongxin Erke headquarters.

A beautiful girl in professional attire and patent leather high-heeled shoes walked quickly through the crowd, her high ponytail danced happily with her steps, leaving a series of heels hitting the ground.

Jiang Shan walked to the door of the office with the manager's office sign hanging on the door, stretched out her slender white fingers, and gently knocked on the door a few times.

Tuk Tuk Tuk!

"Please come in!"

Hearing the voice from the office, Jiang Shan immediately opened the door and went in.

In the [-]-square-meter office, a middle-aged man was looking down at the documents, and only raised his head when he heard footsteps.

Seeing that it was Jiang Shan, the middle-aged man showed a smile on his face, and immediately put down the document in his hand, "It's Shanshan, why are you free to come to me today?"

Jiang Shan casually threw the folder in her arms onto the desk, then sat down on the luxurious sofa next to her, and stretched comfortably, "Of course I'm here to report on work, hehe."

Looking at this daughter who was chic and capable one second and lively and naughty the next, Jiang Xuemin shook his head with some headaches, "Shanshan, this is not at home in the company, you don't know how to stand or sit like this." Look, how decent it is to be seen by others."

Although his words were harsh, there was no trace of reproach in his tone.

Jiang Shan exaggeratedly looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh, "Oh! I'm a top student at Peking University, so it's fine if I come to your small shoe factory as an assistant. I've been busy for several days and found a way to make money for you. Thank you, I can't afford to hurt you! Let's go!"

After speaking, he pretended to get up and leave.

Jiang Xuemin stood up abruptly, walked quickly to Jiang Shan's side, and pushed Jiang Shan back. There was a trace of excitement on his face, "Shanshan, what did you just say? Did you find a way to make money? "

Although his daughter is usually eccentric, she is also a solid top student at the School of Economics and Management of Peking University. Within a few months after arriving at the company, she proposed several excellent plans, allowing the company to complete the quarterly target one and a half months ahead of schedule, so now in his eyes Here, Jiang Shan is not only his precious daughter, but also the company's cash cow.

Jiang Shan turned her head, her cherry mouth pouted high, almost enough to hang an oil pot, "Hmph, Manager Jiang said just now that he doesn't look good!"

Jiang Xuemin sat down beside her, and said with an apologetic smile on his face, "Shanshan, without your plan, there would be no company today. How could Dad criticize you? How about Dad treating you to a big meal tonight? Just treat it as my gift to you." Sorry."

Jiang Shan turned her head, her big eyes fluttered a few times, "Really?"

Jiang Xuemin nodded, "You are a puppy!"

Jiang Shan snorted coldly, "That's about the same."

Jiang Xuemin rubbed his hands together, and said with a chuckle, "Well, Shanshan..."

Jiang Shan stood up, picked up the folder from the table and handed it to Jiang Xuemin, "Didn't you always want to build the company into a well-known sports brand? Now is your chance!"

Looking at the daughter who had become a strong woman in the workplace in a second, Jiang Xuemin was stunned for a moment, took the folder and asked, "What opportunity?"

Jiang Shan pointed at the document, motioned Jiang Xuemin to look at the content, and said, "To build a well-known sports brand, a well-known spokesperson is indispensable. If you were asked to choose a spokesperson, who would you choose?"

Jiang Xuemin said a name without hesitation, "Yao Ming!"

Jiang Shan sneered, "If you don't look at the cost, he is indeed the most suitable, but Dad, don't forget, we are just a slightly famous shoe factory now!"

Jiang Xuemin looked at her, "Then what do you mean..."

Jiang Shan pointed to the document in Jiang Xuemin's hand again, "What we have to do is to find a spokesperson who has not yet grown up. In my opinion, this person is the most suitable..."

Jiang Xuemin quickly opened the folder in his hand, looking at the handsome face on the first page, he read out the name next to him with some doubts, "Li Kaiming? The name seems to be from Hua, why haven't I heard of it?" past him?"
