NBA: Start with 20 billion, buy the Knicks

Chapter 2 Why sell the Knicks?

Chapter 2: Why sell the Knicks?

"It's a good thing Broadway can't buy it."

Jiang Chao breathed a sigh of relief. Broadway is actually the name of a street in New York. There are a lot of theaters in it. It is just synonymous with musicals. If you really want to buy it, you have to communicate with a lot of bosses.

Basically, the bosses behind these theaters are not short of money.

Unlike Dolan, who was on the verge of bankruptcy last year due to the economic crisis and the team's failure to make the playoffs for five years, and was pointed at gunpoint by fans to sell the team.

Originally, when Dolan heard that someone wanted to buy a team, he dismissed it, but he gave too much!

But in fact, Jiang Chao admired this prodigal brother. After having so much money, he made a decision that most people want to make but are most afraid of.

How much criticism will there be for the world's first Chinese NBA owner in North America?

Compared with enjoying the prosperity and wealth, this is a very dangerous decision. It is very likely that he will be kicked out by various factors such as xenophobic fans in less than half a season.

Jiang Chao, who opened the luxurious copper door, took a deep breath.

Why do I suddenly feel lit!

It doesn't seem too bad to start this life with his favorite basketball?
My buddies also want to stand on the stage of the NBA Hall of Fame, so awesome to say:
"I'm legend"

I am a legend.

Jiang Chao stepped out the door and pressed the golden button of the elevator.

This 0ne-57 apartment has 2 elevators and 1 household. There are two apartments on the first floor. That is to say, two rich men share an area of ​​500 square meters. You can see half of New York on the Internet, and live alone in a luxurious large flat of more than 58 square meters.

You can enjoy the services of any super-star hotel for free, and it is free for building owners.

It's Monday, and he's preparing to go to Madison Square Garden to take over as the 'new owner'.

The news is estimated to come out today, because the bank has to go through procedures, and Jiang Chao actually spent 18.8 billion US dollars. People in China like auspicious numbers.

That is to say, there is still 1.2 million U.S. dollars in the old man's inheritance in the account, which is completely enough, and it is money that could not be earned in previous lives.

But obviously Jiang Chao will not be satisfied with this, since the purchase has become a reality, it must be the best!
That's the kind of guy he is, or don't.

Or, I am the best NBA owner!

Just like the 2K manager mode, he is gearing up.

And he has opened his eyes. Compared with the hot-headed original owner, he really understands brother!
In history, Dolan never sold the Knicks to death. The team lived up to its name and let the whole world see how bad the Knicks are (Lan).

Yang Yi Smith of the United States once said a classic sentence: "The Knicks won the championship when I was born, and now I am 54 years old, and the Knicks have not even met the finals."

It can be seen that such a top football market in the world is poorly operated.

No playoffs after 03, no superstar after Ewing!
Every year, he is rated as the worst boss by fans, and is named and criticized by David Stern for not being wise.

Sao operation Jiang Chao, who is not a Knicks fan, can memorize it fluently.

Alan Houston's 6-year 1 million idiot contract, like a psychopath, poached champion coach Larry Brown before he achieved results, and the 5000 million 5-year contract directly drove up the price.

You must know that the annual salary of Coach Popovich in 2018 was only 150 million.

The most annoying is.

After failing to make the playoffs in the first season, Dolan directly waived Larry Brown. The buyout fee was 1800 million, which is equivalent to a coach earning 2800 million in a season?Exceeded the maximum salary of the player's salary cap at that time!

As a result, a bunch of coaches rushed to please Dolan, who had mentally retarded operations.

Dolan was really fooled. He signed multi-year contracts with many teaching assistants, which led to them still receiving their salaries after they were fired. These people are cancerous, and Jiang Chao must be the first to clean them up.

This is still a slightly stable management, and they are all somewhat famous coaches and general managers.

Not to mention the players, it's really like flowing water.
"In Dolan's house, you can never see a stable state. His list is always in constant replacement. And all of this is unnecessary, and many operations are just redundant." "New York Daily News" famous Reporter Frank Isola tweeted it directly on the cable sports channel Dolan runs.

But in fact, since the 21st century, David Stern has coerced Dolan to sell the team every year. This year is even more serious, because after buying out Marbury in 08, he has lost an all-star player in the team that he has already operated!
Even star coach Isaiah Thomas was fired and turned into Mustache D'Antoni.

It's useless for you to replace the best coach who coached the Suns in 03. Players don't have the ability to run away, you know!

David Lee is playing center forward, okay?
Isn't Yao Ming and O'Neill beating you like pinching a chicken?
So this year, the NBA's New York headquarters has not stopped putting pressure on Dolan's own cable TV business. The financial situation has been cut off, so why don't you sell it?

Why not sell it!
Because even with the economic crisis last year, the New York Knicks have never stopped making money since Dolan bought it for 1997 million in 3000! !

Dolan is a businessman.

Why sell something that can make money?
After he bought it, the market value of the Knicks has not fallen below the top 2 in the NBA. Backed by the New York market, although it lost nearly 4000 million US dollars in financial revenue last year, its market value is still as high as 5.34 million, ranking first in the NBA team list.

But Jiang Chao knew that Dolan made 22 billion with the team 40 years after buying the Knicks.

More money than he made selling cable rights!

Later, he himself lay flat, this is just a tool to make money, if he is scolded, he will be scolded, just need to equip more security guards.

So Jiang Chao didn't panic at all after sorting out his clues, and even wanted to go downstairs for a haircut.

This is not a stock, this is a business that can make a profit without losing money. Dolan's disgusting operation will make the Knicks have a market value of 2021 billion in 60.

He can make an average of more than 2 million a year as a shopkeeper!
Therefore, he, the boss, strives to achieve a good reputation, career and money.

You can make money even if you don't work hard. This world is so cruel. The richer you are, the less likely you are to go bankrupt, because some things really can always make money.

That.

Why don't you sell the team's Dolan in 2022.

Quickly completed the handover procedures within a week, took the money and left?

18.8 billion!
Too many!

This is the price proposed by Jiang Chao's hot-headed brother!
This price can buy any team!No boss will say no!
In Dolan's view, this can be worth the profits of the next ten years, and he can buy another team, not only the Knicks can buy it!

It was just the right time for this to be taken advantage of. The fans scolded the league for scolding the employees. If it wasn't for the sake of money, they would have left a long time ago.

Under the economic crisis in 09, the market value of the Knicks was at most about 18.8 billion US dollars. Although it would be more expensive if it was listed and sold, it would definitely not reach the level of [-] billion.

That can directly buy the most expensive team in the four major leagues in the United States.

In addition, Dolan's current capital turnover is difficult. After all, the market value cannot be withdrawn in cash. Jiang Chao's one-time payment made him laugh in his dreams.

In Jiang Chao's view, this is actually similar to Mr. Cai Chongxin buying the Nets at that time.

The economic benefits of New York are simply too strong.

Is it stupid enough for the richest man in the warring country to run the Nets? He has paid the highest luxury tax of 14 million in history in 9060 years, and he has lost money every year.

But just because it is in Brooklyn, New York, boss Cai spent 23 billion to win this team.

This directly allowed the richest man in Russia to earn 19 billion US dollars, and got back all the money he had paid for the previous stupid operation, which was equivalent to fulfilling his dream of becoming a real 2K boss by buying a team.

But that's 2018!It's all after 9 years of multiple inflations!

In 2009, nearly 20 billion was spent to buy an NBA team, which is far from the original!

Even if Jiang travels one day early, he will not spend so much money.

Money can make ink push ghosts.

Jiang Chao walked into the elevator with a wry smile.

He has already guessed how the New York Times will write about himself today, local tyrant, stunned young man, taken advantage of, mentally disabled, pig-headed heavenly new boss
Jiang Chao thought about pressing the button on the negative first floor, and then pressed the 0th floor. Forget it, let’s go to the arena. By the way, it’s the first time to experience the customs of New York. That old car is really not suitable for his body. .

"Maybe Dolan won't sell it without spending so much money?

Although I am not a Knicks honey, it is already very cool that this speculator who does not understand basketball is not the owner of the Knicks from today on. "

Jiang Chaoyue became more and more excited when the elevator went down.

The impulsive decision of this prodigal predecessor seems to be the most handsome approach.

Of course, this money can only spend three or four billion to buy a small ball market, but what's the use?
It seems that Jordan will spend 2.75 million to buy the Bobcats at this time next year. The Bobcats have not increased their profits because of their reputation as the god of basketball.

This is Basketball Mecca!It is the city with the largest number of people in the United States, and other cities are incomparable, and there are many losses every year.

Jiang Chao can make money through his own business, but he can earn more in New York, it's as simple as that.

New York Knicks, the important thing is the word New York!

In terms of long-term benefits, 18.8 billion is considered a P!
What is long-term investment, this TM is the real long-term investment!

It doesn't matter if you weren't a mud fan before time travel, it's all because of Dolan.

Now it's enough to run the Knicks as you like.

Whether it should be said or not, the Knicks' orange jersey still wins Jiang Chao's heart.

The team I want, I will build it myself!
"Hello handsome guy."

While Jiang Chao was intoxicated with himself, the elevator stopped on the 33rd floor. A blond woman smelling of high-end perfume stepped into the elevator with a small bag, looked up at Jiang Chao, and raised her hand to say hello gracefully.

Jiang Chao looked at this slightly familiar face expressionlessly.

White!
How white!
