I Am a Nobleman in England

"OK, but I have a few requests, and I hope Mr. Ratner can agree."

Arthur smiled and agreed without hesitation. However, there are some things that need to be taken care of in advance. After all, although the current Nets team is a super bad team, the cards in their hands are not bad.

"Please tell—" Labrus nodded and stretched out his hand.

"Everything about the current team needs to remain as it is. Players cannot be traded, especially the draft picks. This is the foundation of rebuilding the team. It must not be traded. At the same time, I need to send a few people into the team for detailed understanding and investigation. I hope you can give me your support and cooperation." Arthur said his most important request.

Whether the Nets can turn around or not, in Arthur's view, it is not possible to get a superstar with money. The key is to make good use of a good hand of draft picks. Young players are not afraid, even if they can't achieve much now, but The future is their stage, and the sky is their limit!

At that time, just select a few young players with great potential and make good use of the existing old players. You must know that the old players in the current Nets team include Carter, who was still playing in the league before Arthur crossed. Although a monster is a big burden with an annual salary of tens of millions, whether it is trading or staying, there is a lot of room for maneuvering.

As long as the management does not mess around, even if some heavyweight players cannot be introduced in the summer of 2010, with young strength, they can become a strong team in the league that has attracted much attention in the future.

What's more, there is an important bargaining chip in the team. The only player in the league that has attracted the attention of Tianchao fans and merchants, Arthur knows better than anyone that Dayao's time in the league has entered the countdown. Space is easy to hold in his hands. If he makes good use of this bargaining chip, he can copy a certain arrow's way of making money and double the value of the Nets.

"No problem, you can send people over tomorrow, and I will arrange positions for them to get in touch with all aspects of the team, so that they can get familiar with the Nets as soon as possible, so that they can transition smoothly!" Now that Labrus has decided to sell For Arthur, naturally he would not set up obstacles in these matters, and agreed very cooperatively.

"So, when will we sign the contract? I can also report it to the league. In this way, there will be no need to investigate Prokhorov..."

"Hehe." Arthur didn't care about the sharpness of Labrus' words. This is how business is done. The process is not important, but the final result is what matters.

"Tomorrow morning, after we sign the contract, let my people enter the front station first, thank you, Mr. Ratner!" Arthur stood up from the sofa, with an elegant and calm smile on his face, and extended his hand to shake hands with Labrus. road.

"You're welcome, we are mutually beneficial, and each takes what we need. Besides, I am still a shareholder of the Nets. I am very much looking forward to it. It can rise again in your hands and create miracles. In that way, I can also do what I want today. I am extremely proud of this decision I made!" Labrus said with a pale face, looking into Arthur's eyes very sincerely.

"Yes, I promise, you will definitely see a miracle happen!" Arthur let go of his hand and smiled confidently.

"Wait and see!" Labrus nodded with a smile.

Leaving the Forest Group Building in New York City, Arthur got into the car, took out his phone, called NBA Commissioner David Stern, and told him the good news that he had reached an agreement with Labrus.

In the congratulatory laughter of David Stern, Arthur thanked the other party. Although David Stern did not give Arthur any obvious help, he did contribute to the decision to start the investigation process against Prokhorov. Labrus' final decision.

After returning to the car in his mansion in New York, Arthur called the owners of the 29 teams in the league one by one.

While greeting the other party, he also explained the situation of the deal between himself and Labrus. He hoped to get the support of everyone in the alliance council, pass the meeting smoothly, and complete the final entry.

The feedback I got was undoubtedly what Arthur wanted. To be honest, if it wasn’t for Arthur’s hype, he messed around, made the simple team transaction case attract the attention of the United States, and made a big article about Prokhorov’s background. There is actually no big problem for the husband to take over the Nets, and in the end it is just a formality.

But now, the winner has become Arthur Boleyn, so Arthur will naturally gain congratulations and at the same time gain a mortal enemy.

And this mortal enemy, Prokhorov, may not let it go. After all, it is not difficult for the super rich Xiong Guoren to choose other teams to buy. Enemy!

I believe that at that time, the alliance will also be happy to see the results and hype it up, increase the gimmicks of the alliance, attract more viewers, and increase the ratings.

However, regardless of whether the other party will choose other teams as acquisition targets, Arthur doesn't care. He invests in NBA teams not because he loves basketball, but because of commercial investment. He knows better than anyone else that in a few days The value of an NBA team in 2010 is so enviable. A broken ship team can sell 2 billion US dollars, which is like stealing money!

As long as the Nets move into a new stadium and move from New Jersey to Brooklyn, New York, its value will be the same as that of the Rockets, and it will go up. Look at the Knicks. , but because it is backed by New York, an international metropolis, its market value has always ranked first in the league, surpassing the Los Angeles Lakers. Nima, who is the reason for this?

It is conceivable that after becoming the Brooklyn Nets, how much the team will bring to Arthur!

Of course, if you want to get more valuations, you need to increase the team's record, so that fans can be attracted to the stadium, and the football market can be booming. If you want to do a good job of the team, in Arthur's view, Come on, the most important thing is to have an excellent team general manager!

Speaking of the general manager of an NBA team, Bob Myers, the general manager who led the Golden State Warriors out of the trough and won the championship through a fierce sao operation, immediately came to Arthur's mind.

Bob Myers, a sports agent under the legendary American sports agent Arne Teren, officially became Taren's assistant in 1997. After a process of experience accumulation and growth, Miles grew into Tyronn's chief assistant and became an expert in contract negotiation and player recruitment.

In 2000, Tyronn and Miles founded SFX Sports Group, with Miles serving as CEO. Miles has been an agent for more than ten years. When Arthur found him, he was already in the Wasserman Media Group. The total contract he negotiated exceeded 500 million US dollars. He has nineteen clients, including stars such as Brandon Roy, Tyreke Evans and Kendrick Perkins.

In the previous life when the Warriors won the championship, Bob Myers undoubtedly became the hottest figure. Arthur also learned about him from media reports. After knowing that he supported Myers and was promoted to the general manager of the Warriors, he relied on his support. Unique insight, several wise drafts and supplements have gradually made the team into the ranks of strong teams. Many media said that Miles "painted the most colorful stroke" for this miracle team.

As long as I pull this excellent manager into my camp and let him take full charge of the Nets, then, in a short time, I believe that I will gain a "new legendary team". Not much better than the Nets, but on the contrary, there are many disadvantages in the team camp.

Whether a team can rise depends on whether the person in charge can play the cards well. Some people can play a bad hand well, and some can play a good hand poorly. Therefore, behind-the-scenes players like Arthur For the big boss, using good people is the key!

When Arthur returned to his mansion apartment, he saw Bob Myers who had been waiting for a long time.
