Chapter 3256: Lakers Chinese Owner

In fact, not only was he moved, but so was Paul Allen. www.мdyzww.м网мmм He doesn’t think this is very profitable. To be honest, no matter how good the idea is, it won’t make much money in a year. But what he cares about is this idea, this idea that brings changes to life.

Human beings have been reading newspapers for more than a hundred years. It is unknown how many trees have been cut down, how much ink has been wasted, and how much pollution has been caused to the earth. Now, it seems that the time has finally come for change, and he is willing to participate in this change.

"Lin, are you interested in finding a collaborator?" Paul Allen asked.

Although the two are friends and partners, whether Lin Feng needs a partner in this matter depends on Lin Feng's wishes. If Lin Feng doesn't need a partner, neither he nor Cuban will say anything more. After all, everyone has their own dignity. No matter how much they want to cooperate, they will not stick to the cold butt.

"Haha, why not cooperate? I feel that after all, I am only one person with limited energy. Instead of investing my limited energy in endless careers, it is better to find more partners and get rich together. That would be more interesting!" Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Then I wish us a happy cooperation!" Paul Allen laughed.

"Happy cooperation!" Cuban also raised his glass high.

The clinking of glasses by three people represents the achievement of cooperation intention. As for the rest, it is up to their representatives to negotiate and communicate. Naturally, there is no need for them to do such things as scheming, scheming, and hurting feelings for the sake of profit. All they have to do is tell their bottom line and let the representatives fight for it. All that's left is to wait for the final result to come out and the three of them sit together to drink and celebrate.

"What do you think will happen to this luxury tax?" Cuban said.

Lin Feng shook his head. Anyway, the luxury tax is definitely inevitable, it just depends on how much it is. But as Lin Feng said in the conference room just now, it is nothing more than an extra 100 million. It's still about the extra 200 million. Lin Feng doesn't care about this little money.

Sure enough, the NBA then officially announced a new luxury tax reform. Starting from the 2007-2008 season, the NBA will double the penalty policy for teams that exceed the luxury tax. Double that for every $5 million. The maximum penalty will be 4 times. For example, if the luxury tax is US$60 million, if it is US$70 million, you will only have to pay an extra US$10 million in fines. But now it is different. Now you have to pay an extra US$30 million.

According to this regulation, the Houston Rockets' luxury tax may be very high. Because next season starts. There will be a lot of players up for renewal. For example, James, Wade and others. Once they renew their contract, the Houston Rockets' salary will far exceed the luxury tax. So will Lin Feng still sign the contract? Is it the newly established dynasty of the Houston Rockets?

Will it fall apart because of this?

Amid everyone's speculation, when Lin Feng attended the first game of the playoffs between the Houston Rockets and the Los Angeles Lakers, he boasted to reporters, "No matter how much the salary is, no matter how much the luxury tax is. As long as the players are capable, , I will give them corresponding remuneration, and my promise will never change. If they are capable, they should receive remuneration worthy of their status.

Lin Feng's commitment undoubtedly reassured the tens of thousands of Houston Rockets fans present. Many Houston Rockets fans are filled with indignation about this newly released clause, which was approved by two-thirds of the owners. Because this is basically the luxury tax clause for the 'Houston Rockets'. In fact, Houston Rockets fans have always called it the 'Rockets clause'. But now that the league has formulated it, more than two-thirds of the owners agree. Then they must obey. so. They were worried that Lin Feng would be afraid of such a high luxury tax and dismantle such a luxurious lineup.

Now Lin Feng promises not to dismantle the lineup. It will undoubtedly make all fans feel at ease. As long as Lin Feng commits to signing, they will continue to enjoy the team's dynasty performance.

"The God of Wind is mighty!" The screams of the God of Wind also rang out from the Houston Rockets' Wahaha Center.

Lin Feng laughed.

The first game of the Western Conference playoffs begins with the Houston Rockets versus the Los Angeles Lakers. This season, the Los Angeles Lakers originally wanted to continue to maintain an ok combination. However, halfway through, the conflict between Shaq O'Neal and Kobe could not be concealed. The two were already incompatible. In the end, out of desperation, the Lakers chose to send O'Neal away and keep him. Kobe. As a result, the Lakers' record plummeted. Although they finally made it to the playoffs, they were ranked eighth. It happened to be against the No. 1 Houston Rockets.

Although Kobe Bryant made lofty words before the game that he would definitely lead the team to the finals, but lofty words are lofty words, and strength is more valuable than strength. Kobe was the only one who excelled, unable to compete with the five-tiger lineup of the Houston Rockets. In particular, when the Houston Rockets were so strong as both the main force and the substitutes, the Los Angeles Lakers began to fall behind early. The competition was one-sided.

By halftime, the Los Angeles Lakers were already trailing by 24 points. Basically, unless there was any miracle, this game would be considered final.

"Boss, are the Lakers so bad?" Zhiling looked on in shock. She doesn't like basketball very much. Although she follows Lin Feng and knows a little bit about basketball, she doesn't like it, so except for the Houston Rockets, she doesn't pay much attention to other teams. Therefore, I didn't know that the Los Angeles Lakers, a giant team, would be beaten so badly by the Houston Rockets.

Lin Feng smiled.

"Any dynasty does not perish at the hands of a strong enemy, but collapses in internal strife. This is the case with the Lakers. If O'Neal hadn't left, the situation would not be like this!" Lin Feng sighed. Although O'Neal is 34 years old this year, his black physique still allows him to maintain sufficient deterrence. At least in the interior, Yao Ming cannot resist O'Neal, who has not completely aged. Even with the addition of power forward Boozer, it is difficult for the interior to reach O'Neal, the prehistoric beast. Unfortunately, O'Neal's departure has made the Lakers lose their deterrence in the interior, and in terms of the exterior, Kobe alone cannot beat the combination of LeBron and Jordan. Although Jordan is old, his defensive awareness is still there. In a limited time frame, Kobe is not so easy to break through. Even if Jordan has no physical strength, there is still Wade on the court.

Therefore, the interior is not good, and the exterior is completely locked. The current situation of the Lakers is reasonable. And Lin Feng dares to assert that this is still the case when the team has not fully exerted its strength. If it is fully exerted, playing against the Lakers led by only Kobe, this half should be at least 30 points ahead.

Zhiling suddenly realized.

Lin Feng shook his head helplessly. Zhiling doesn't like basketball, Lin Feng really has no choice. It's not easy to come to the scene to watch the game, but there's no one to talk to. It would be great if Jessica Alba was here. It's a pity that she is filming in Los Angeles. When the Houston Rockets go to Los Angeles, Jessica will go to the scene to watch the game and cheer for the Houston Rockets. As for Avril, it's the same. She has to practice singing, and she is not very interested in basketball. In addition, the Houston Rockets have won the championship every year in recent years, and they are playing against a weak Lakers, so she didn't come. When the Houston Rockets go to Los Angeles, she and Jessica will come to help.

The weak Lakers, Lin Feng sighed. Kobe, who is standing on the court at this moment, has already led the team alone, but has he also tasted the helplessness of leading alone? Jordan needs Pippen to assist him, let alone you, Kobe? Of course, Lin Feng also knows that even if the Lakers are in a desperate situation, Kobe will not give in. This is a super strong man who is not inferior to anyone in fighting spirit. Unfortunately, his Houston is stronger!

"Alas, it's a pity to fight with each other!" At this time, a not very fluent Chinese language floated over.

Lin Feng looked sideways and saw a gray-haired Chinese, but he should be of Chinese descent.

"Hello, who are you?" Lin Feng stretched out his hand.

"Mr. Lin, hello, my name is Huang Xinxiang, one of the shareholders of the Lakers." The middle-aged man stretched out his right hand.

Huang Xinxiang, Lin Feng was stunned. I have heard of this name. He is one of the small owners of the Lakers, with assets of billions of dollars, and is one of the richest people in the United States. He is well known to most Chinese fans because he is a Chinese and owns shares in the Lakers.

"I didn't expect Mr. Huang to come to Houston to watch the game. It's unexpected." Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Haha, I just bought shares this year, so I can't wait." Huang Xinxiang laughed, "Besides, I also want to come to this 'Wahaha Center' to have a look. I just didn't expect to meet you, Mr. Lin."

Lin Feng originally had a box, but he was used to sitting in the front row to watch the game. Huang Xinxiang can buy a box ticket, but he also likes to sit in the front row, and the two of them happened to be sitting next to each other.

"By the way, this is my business card. Let's have tea together when we are free!" Huang Xinxiang handed Lin Feng a business card.

Lin Feng took it and saw a list of names, most of which were chairmen of xx biotechnology companies. Of course, there was a note next to it: physician.

Physician! Lin Feng's eyes lit up.

Physician, this Chinese Lakers shareholder was actually a physician, which was something Lin Feng had not expected. He is a physician, and he has created so many biotechnology companies, so he must be quite familiar with the field of medicine. In this case, the listing qualification of his "Rejuvenation Pill" and "Yumenguan" may fall on this person. Otherwise, how could the two of them suddenly sit together?

This is obviously arranged by God, otherwise God would not let the two of them sit together.

"Nice to meet you, nice to meet you!" Lin Feng stretched out his hand.

"Haha, Mr. Lin, you're too polite." Huang Xinxiang smiled slightly, "If you really want to say it's a pleasure to meet you, it's me. Mr. Lin's miracles illuminate the entire sky, making all of us Chinese proud!"

"Now that the game is over, let's have tea together?" Lin Feng invited.
