Chapter 225 Battle for Ownership
The door of the All-Star is slowly opening to Chen Feng. When no one reacts, this bald boy has smashed his own world in the NBA.
It may not be big, but it is enough to let more people know that there is such a wild boy in the NBA.
Although I don't know if this boy can surpass Bosh's votes to become the starting power forward in the last week, it is almost a for him to enter the main game.
Unless O'Neal Jr. can play a Jedi counterattack in the last week's voting time, but looking at the guy's aggrieved face, it is estimated that this reversal is no longer a good.
Otherwise, he will not be nagging like a media reporter complaining woman. This guy's style is definitely not like an all-star, but like a loser who has been trampled under his feet.
Chen Feng's votes are still accumulating rapidly, and even Bosh is afraid of being overtaken by this guy. As for Little O'Neal, he can only hold his more than 800,000 votes to find a corner to draw a circle.
It is estimated that little O'Neal has once again seen the powerful momentum of YAO when he became the king of votes.
Although Chen Feng is still far away from the ticket king, this boy would have been far away from the pursuers if he had compared with the rookie in the same period.
Now only Roy has got more than 300,000 votes in the west, which is the limit of the rookie, but there are Godlike existences such as Kobe and McGrady in front of him. Don't expect to surpass.
It is estimated that he will not expect to pull these two guys off the starting list in the next two or three seasons. If Roy wants to break out of the West, in addition to his excellent performance, he has to pray that the animals in front of him will be injured.
He is not as fierce as Chen Feng. In addition, Portland's fans certainly do not have as many Chinese fans. In fact, the Chinese group in the United States alone is large enough, not to mention domestic ones.
Bosh was not pressed by Chen Feng on the inside line at the beginning, so even if he could sit firmly in the starting lineup, he may not get more playing time than that boy in the end.
The coach in the East has not been decided yet. Some people say that Rivers has a chance to take office. Although it may not be certain, neither Rivers nor Eddie Jordan, who may temporarily replace him, will not ignore Chen Feng.
What the NBA All-Star Game needs is performance. Now if anyone can be more fierce and explosive than Chen Feng, I'm afraid you can't find such a number even if you turn it over.
Anyway, no matter how envious and jealous others are, Chen Feng's popularity is expanding rapidly. In fact, not only the vote from China has benefited this boy a lot, but he also has his own supporters in Boston.
There is such a rapid momentum in the re-voting. At the beginning, most of the 100,000 votes were cast by local Boston fans to Chen Feng, and even Pierce won less than 400,000 votes.
"That boy is surprisingly popular." When Pierce looked at Chen Feng's amazing change of votes that day, he also smirthed and marveled at the boy's attraction.
Although Pierce has always been Boston's favorite, he may be a qualified captain, but he is definitely not a radical who can often incite the atmosphere of the court.
So now Chen Feng is simply the ultimate catalyst for the North Bank Garden Arena. As long as this boy is on the court, he will not worry that the atmosphere in the stadium will not reach the peak. No matter who his opponent is, Chen Feng can detonate the stadium!
I can't help it. I really don't accept it. The wild boy has such a fierce temperament, which can make everyone's eyes focus on him and don't want to move away.
And Chen Feng's tough style is the favorite of the fans. When this boy meets any opponent, he will not be timid. Even if his head is broken, this guy can grit his teeth and knock to the end.
This tough temperament is easy to infect others, so when Chen Feng begins to break out, it is often when Boston starts to fight back. Since it's all like this, how can fans not like this guy?
Fans have this view, and so does the coach. Now if Rivers is asked to change his command, it is estimated that the fat guy will be angry with you immediately and may scold the street.
"Replacement? Who to change? Now, who do you give me, I won't change it!" This is what Rivers is thinking now. How can it be so easy for him to find such a fierce wild boy? It's your uncle!
Rivers finally found such a wild boy under the guidance of Auerbach. How could he be willing to change with others?
In fact, not only the team's coach and management now attach great importance to Chen Feng's value and potential. More people are also paying attention to the wild boy killed in the assassination. In their eyes, this guy is a big killer!
Anyone who has played face-to-face with Chen Feng may have this feeling. That boy is an unreasonable way to play, but you just can't find any problems and can only be passively beaten.
You can say that this guy is a violent maniac, but in the same way, most of them know that in the face of such a violent murderer, how can you do it? And looking at his posture, he may have been harming you for more than ten years.
Who is the most melancholy now? It must be those insiders who have been in the NBA for many years. No one wants to meet such a madman when they have nothing to do, which makes people live!
When the four centers ravaged the alliance, how many big people of the same era were killed by them? It was not until they all retired that the tragic situation was eased.
Now it's good. The four centers are gone. As a result, such an unreasonable guy came out. Those old guys who are about to retire are happy, but there is only one power forward left. I don't know how many years they will be tortured.
The wild boy has just been killed for less than half a season, and the result has been disrupted by the league. Just thinking about competing with O'Neal in the future, many people's scalps are a little numb, and this guy has already wrestled with Nowitzki and Garnett. It is.
Just like the group of fierce people in the 1990s who didn't want to meet Master Qiao, those big insiders now don't want to provoke animals like Chen Feng, which really makes them unbearable.
For such players, most coaches want to be included in their own accounts. With such a fierce man, it may be much easier to play the game, but Rivers obviously doesn't mean to let people go.
In fact, there are no more than two people who privately ask Angie for a deal, and some people even smashed blockbuster trading chips in order to get Chen Feng into their own hands.
Among them, there are many quasi-superstars with an annual salary of 10 million, and their strength should not be underestimated, but Angie's attitude is also resolute enough. He immediately refused all the transactions between Rondo and Chen Feng.
There is almost no reply. Even if the old relationship comes to the door, Angie can't give face.
This is not that those trading chips are unattractive, but in the eyes of team managers like Anji, Chen Feng's value is much more than what he shows now. That boy is a gold mine.
If you give this gold mine to others for the sake of immediate benefits, not only will the fans kill themselves immediately, but I'm afraid that the strong rebound from within the team will also make Angie anxious.
Rivers will certainly not agree to such a deal. Similarly, the cardinal who comes out for a walk around when he has nothing to do will definitely warn Angie not to act rashly in his own way.
Instead of becoming a public enemy of Boston, it is better to keep the boy to continue to add value, and the recent attention from the other side of the ocean has also made Angie feel Chen Feng's commercial potential.
First, when a Chinese reporter went to a Chinese merchant, a person has found Angie. This is an advantage that only Houston has always enjoyed, and now it's Boston's turn to taste it.
There are many Chinese in Boston, at least more Asians than Houston, but they were more willing to support Boston Red Sox baseball and Boston Bruins hockey.
But now the situation has obviously changed. From the day Chen Feng came to Boston, the number of Asian fans watching the game in the North Shore Garden Arena began to grow day by day.
Although Angie has not specifically counted how much this number is, now looking at the often full North Bank Garden Arena, it is an individual who knows that their ticket revenue is setting a record.
Even when Bird's Big Three were there, Boston's ticket sales were not so popular. It is estimated that only by reaching the finals can the tickets be swept away.
But now Angie doesn't have to think about this problem. According to this momentum, the tickets of the Celtics may soon become a hot item.
Just by comparing the recent ticket sales, it can be concluded that when Chen Feng was there, a weak team like the Timberwolves could sell more than 90% of the tickets.
As a result, as soon as the boy was banned, the sales of home tickets immediately fell to 70%. Such an obvious box office appeal, unless Angie is blind, he can't turn a blind eye.
And this boy's jersey sales speed is also amazing. He has even jumped to the second place in the team, only a little behind Pierce. His No. 99 jersey has been sold out at least twice this season.
Nima, you should know that the schedule is not halfway through now! With this sales strength, maybe Pierce was not so fierce when he first joined the league, but the boy abruptly caused such a sensation.
Angie is responsible for the team's income. There is such a guy who can add value in his hand. Even if he was so unhappy at the beginning, he has long forgotten it at this moment.
Because of the existence of YAO Ming, a small giant, the market value of Houston has at least doubled in three or four years. Now Anji has every reason to believe that with Chen Feng's presence, the value of Boston will also skyroer.
After all, in the United States, the NBA is not only at the bottom of the four major events, but always ranks behind baseball and football. Most of its revenue comes from TV broadcasting and box office revenue.
Although the Celtics have invested a lot after changing their boss, what Angie, as a team manager, needs to do is to run the business, at least let the team enter a benign operation.
It is self-evident that the popularity of the little giant in China has found a lot of business opportunities for them, especially in terms of broadcasting, and Boston also has such opportunities now.
Angie doesn't expect to eat a fat man in one bite, but he has nothing to do. Sooner or later, Boston can also start to get a share of the pie in the TV broadcast because of Chen Feng.
The ball market in Boston has always been in a state of half-fire. Suddenly, there is such a cash cow in the palm of your hand. Do you still expect Angie to give him up to others?
However, not only is Boston now inseparable from such a fierce guy as Chen Feng, but also some people have come up with this boy. Chen Feng is like a magnet now, and he will never lack attention.
Two days after the penalty decision, the All-Star voting there was in full swing. As a result, another piece of news in the newspaper also attracted the attention of many people.
There are no exceptions, because this news is also for Chen Feng, but as a party, Chen Feng himself did not understand what had happened until Falk and Xie Miaomiao found himself.
"What? Did Lao K send me an invitation? Let me join the U.S. team?" Chen Feng held the newspaper given to him by Xie Miaomiao in one hand and the invitation handed over by Falk in the other. It was really the first two big ones.
"What the hell is that old guy doing? Is it because the last time I found a scene for Jerry, he was so gloomy to me? Or is he helping Brand find the steps down?
Chen Feng can only think of this level when he starts his brain, otherwise he really doesn't understand what old K is doing and joins the national team? Not to mention that he really hasn't considered this problem.
"Brand is injured, and the current Dream Team does not have many real insiders. If Howard is one, except for him, only Bosh can still be an insider, but he rarely seems to start attacking under the basket. Therefore, no matter how you look at it, the Dream Team needs a strong insider to sit under the basket. . "
Falk's point of view on the problem has always hit the nail on the head. He knows why Lao K is so anxious to recruit Chen Feng to the national team.
The Dream Team replaced Lao K as the head coach because of the losing streak. Now if it encounters the World Series again, Lao K can't afford to lose, unless he wants to be a scapegoat of the American Basketball Association again.
The old man is very smart, so he won't let that kind of thing happen to him, so he began to recruit people from the beginning of his tenure. Kobe, James, Wade, and he was under his command.
The inside line is also supported by Brand, Howard, Bosh, Chandler and others, but except for Brand's certain back attack ability under the basket, Howard and Chandler are not offensive players.
Bosh has scored a lot of points, but this guy rarely runs into the basket, not to mention the hand-to-hand fight. If you meet those big European insiders, don't expect Bosh to get any rebounds.
And there is a heavy gunner floating on the outside line, leaving too much mobile phone for Bosh at all. What Lao K needs most is the kind of tough player who can take root under the basket, score and defend.
Originally, his personal disciple Brand was a good choice, but before he could play the international competition, Brand was injured there, and this injury was a period of several months of recuperation.
Lao K is also a temporary cram, but this does not mean that he is sick and went to the doctor. Chen Feng had been included in his observation long before that game.
In that Celtics game with the Clippers, Old K followed him all the way. The bald boy who played more fiercely than Brand had already left a deep impression on him.
This time, he explored his mouth slightly through the media and Falk, which is the first step of his action. If he can really attract Chen Feng under his command, Old K doesn't mind that this is an apprentice taught by his old opponent Takanian.
Lao K doesn't mind, but Xie Miaomiao doesn't want to do it. Originally, she worked so hard to shake the flag and shout for Chen Feng in the media, but she just hopes that this guy can return to China.
As a result, as soon as Lao K summoned, he seemed to really plan to fool Chen Feng to the Dream Team. If this is the case, isn't the previous thing in vain?
Although Xie Miaomiao will not say anything because of this, she will always feel awkward in her heart. A native Chinese plays the game on behalf of the dream team. Anyway, it is a pimple in her heart.
Moreover, Miss Xie also got some inside information from the editor-in-chief. The Basketball Association is interested in contacting Chen Feng and returning to China, but the officials are still watching for fear that it will become self-defeating if they are not careful.
Falk's side is completely based on commercial interests. If you can enter the Dream Team, it is the same as playing the All-Star Game, expanding the popularity and giving commercial value more space to play the effect.
If it can really be done, it's not impossible. Anyway, Falk cares about economic benefits, but the name of the Dream Team is a little bigger.
It's easy to enjoy the cool under the tree. Anyway, Falk just thinks about it with this idea. He has no likes or dislikes about the existence of the Dream Team. The United States can't win a medal, and it has nothing to do with him.
This old guy only considers the interests of the customer, and whether his own means of operation are smart enough. He never cares about other things, and he has never considered what the consequences are.
"If it is considered according to commercial interests, it is not a bad thing to accept this invitation." Falk said his opinion slowly after weighing the pros and cons.
"If you simply consider these problems, I think there are so many stars in the Dream Team, which may not be able to focus people's attention on Chen Feng, but in the Chinese team, his attention will certainly not be low."
Chen Feng didn't say anything, but Xie Miaomiao next to him took Falk's words first. This was also the first time she put these things in front of the old fried dough sticks.
Falk didn't say anything, but the old guy was obviously thinking about what Xie Miaomiao said. How much commitment came from the senior management of the Chinese Basketball Association.
Chen Feng can only look helplessly at the two people in front of him discussing his future, but he can't say anything, because he is also confused at this moment.
Chen Feng himself did not expect that a conflict of less than half a minute would cause so much trouble.
Now, even the ownership of his participation in the national team can only be decided after the competition. Is this really a very strange experience...
(Well, there seems to be a classmate in the book group celebrating his birthday, but I misremembered my life. I don't know if it's today or it's over... It's a little tragic. The main reason is that I've been too busy recently. I forgot this matter. Er, well, the blessing is definitely to make up for one. Happy birthday to Xiaonan, and then ask for a marriage or something for him. This guy has a good personality, gentle and charming. Well, really, if I'm a man, I want to marry him. First of all, he is a top. One, but people are very careful, and most of the time they still suffer. I hope he can find a good family soon and get married. Well, no more. I hope Xiaonan can find a good girl, sincerely...)
