Chapter 357 ABA Draft
In July, Xiangjiang is still very lively, and the TV series Zhu Xian firmly occupies the top of the ratings list of Xiangjiang evening prime time.

Bloody Two Heroes was officially released on the 2nd in more than [-] countries and regions around the world.

On the morning of the 300rd, the ABA held its first draft in the Xinyi Pavilion. More than [-] people signed up to participate in the draft. However, these people are mainly from Southeast Asia and East Asia, and the total number of people from Europe, America, Australia and other places is only a dozen. indivual.

This is enough to see that the current influence of the ABA is limited to East Asia and Southeast Asia, and it is not attractive to players from other regions.

But this is quite normal. Even the teams did not have much hope for this draft. The three players in the third round of this draft are just leftovers. They mainly rely on the players that the team currently has.

Although they didn't pay too much attention to the players in this draft, the management of major clubs still came to the scene.

Because the ABA mostly adopts the NBA model, the main method for each team to recruit new players in the future is through the draft, and the first draft is also to accumulate experience for these management teams.

Li Jianhui, the honorary chairman of the ABA, also attended the draft. The Jiashi Sports Channel also broadcast the entire draft live. At the same time, China TV, Tokyo TV, Korea KBS, Singapore TV, etc. participated in the media. As many as nearly a hundred.

Although it was the first time facing so many reporters, Chen Zhiyong didn't feel nervous about it.

As the chairman of the league, he gave a congratulatory speech before the official start of the draft, welcomed the guests and thanked all those who followed the ABA.

At the same time, I also wish all the players participating in the draft can achieve their wishes, and wish the major clubs can choose their favorite players.

Because of the first draft, there were no results as a reference, so the [-] teams had equal chances of drawing a lottery.

As a result, the Seoul Samsung team was the number one lottery, and even the No. [-] pick was won by the Busan Daewoo team and the Osaka Sumitomo team.

Li Jianhui felt very speechless when he got the news at that time. The strength of these companies was already strong, but he did not expect to be so lucky.

On the contrary, there are teams like Baodao and Southeast Asia, because the owners behind them don’t have too much money, and the basketball atmosphere in the place can’t be compared with that of South Korea and Japan. .

I hope that the draft can make up for it a little bit, but luck is not on the side of these teams.

Although the ABA has not yet started, it can be said bluntly that a situation in which the north is strong and the south is weak has formed.

Except for a few teams where the clubs in the North District are located, both the quality of players and the capital of the team are much higher than those in the South District.

Fortunately, it is divided into two districts, North and South, otherwise most of the teams in the playoffs may be teams from the North District.

Because it was the first draft of the ABA, the No. [-] pick was given too much meaning. The Samsung team did not hesitate to choose a Korean scoring player.

Then the Busan team and the Osaka team also chose players from their own countries. I have to say that no matter whether South Korea or Japan is really determined to enhance their national influence.

When people discuss the No. [-] pick in the ABA draft in the future, they will first think of this Korean player. No matter whether he can perform well in the future, he will be recorded in the history of the ABA.

Xiangjiang Xinjian's luck is neither bad nor bad, and the pick is at No. 14. As the former assistant coach of the Clippers and the current head coach of the Xinjian team, Rick Jon chose a 191cm-tall shooting guard from Baodao players.

Although the physical talent is not too good, and he is 22 years old this year because he graduated from college, but he has been baptized in the NCAA league, and his good mid-range and long-range shooting is a good immediate combat power for the Xinjian team.

Compared with the Xinjian team, the Kowloon team is much more interesting. In the eighteenth pick, they chose a mainland player.

This man has no experience in any major competitions, not only is he not a player of the mainland national team, but he is not even a player of the provincial team. He is completely a basketball fan. The only advantage is that his father is a physical education teacher and also a basketball fan. .

Su Haiming, 19 years old, is from Huacheng, Guangdong Province. He is 187cm tall. He is a point guard and has a very high teleportation vision. This is also one of the few advantages of this person.

As for the shortcomings, there are too many, physical strength, basic dribbling skills, shooting, etc. are relatively weak, or even extremely unqualified.

It is precisely because of this that even if he has the passing vision most needed by point guards, he is not valued by most teams, especially in the first round of the draft.

With the passage of time, the [-] teams in the first round had completed their selections. As for the second and third rounds, they were hosted by the vice president of the ABA, and Chen Zhiyong came to the auditorium to take a seat.

And different from the first round, in the second and third rounds, each team only needs to report their selected players to the league according to their picks, and then the vice president of the league will make an announcement, and the selected players do not need to appear on stage.

From this, we can also see the difference between the first-round picks and the second-round and third-round picks, and the follow-up salary is also very different. The first-round show contracts are signed for four years, while the second and third rounds are signed for three years. The salary of the round show is also much higher than that of the next two rounds.

"Jianhui, I heard that the coach and trainer of your Xinjian team are former members of the Clippers, you can't just take care of the Xinjian team and ignore the Haojiang team.

Our Haojiang team is in Lisboa at home, and the market is already very small. If the strength is too weak, I am afraid there will be no audience. "

"Uncle Ye, if the Haojiang team is short of talents, you can also ask the management to go to the United States to find them. Because of the mature league system there, there are still more talents."

Since leaving Lisboa Tourism and Entertainment Company, Ye Han has lived very comfortably in the past two years. Now he is not only the general manager of Haojiang Tourism and Entertainment Company, but also the chairman of the board of directors of Haojiang Holding Group, which owns Haojiang Tourism and Entertainment Company, Haojiang Securities Investment Company, Haojiang Technology Company, Haojiang Film Company, and Haojiang Basketball Club Company.

With the engine of Haojiang Tourism and Entertainment Company, several other major companies under Haojiang Holdings have developed extremely rapidly.

He just talked about the Haojiang Basketball Club. Although the Lisboa market is a bit small, he is not afraid of losing money. That amount of money is not big for Haojiang Holdings.

……

Today, Li Jianhui is really a spectator. The team's management and head coach are also responsible for the draft of the Xinjian team. He did not interfere.

It's a pity that things often backfired. The reporters who arrived were not willing to let him go. After the draft, many reporters did not interview ABA Chairman Chen Zhiyong, nor did they interview the No. [-] Lang Jin Myung Hee, but came straight to him. Including reporters from Jiayi TV Station and Jiayi Daily.

Fortunately, Li Jianhui's bodyguards were very dedicated, and immediately blocked these reporters from the periphery, and did not let them get close to Li Jianhui.

These reporters didn't stop there, even though they couldn't get close, they still asked the questions they had prepared for a long time.

"Everyone, thank you very much for your concern for me, but today's theme is the ABA draft, and you should interview those players, club executives, and even the ABA management.

I don't plan to be interviewed today, it's getting late, and I hope you make room, I'm in a hurry. "

After finally seizing the opportunity, these reporters were quite discouraged. Li Jianhui didn't want to be interviewed.

If they were Xiangjiang stars, they would still stalk them, but they couldn't do this for a rich man like Li Jianhui.

After Li Jianhui spoke, they could only choose to give way and watched Li Jianhui walk out of the Xinyi Pavilion under the protection of bodyguards.
