Chapter 31 A New Loss Idea
In the last ten seconds of the game, the Clippers gave the Hornets a chance to kill. Unfortunately, the Hornets didn't grasp it. The last ball Collison shot to the basket was rejected by Jordan with a big cap!
"Crazy line, what a crazy line, he is so short and can hold the ball deep, without passing vision, holding the ball early and not moving, who will get the shot if you don't get the shot?"

"Head coach Hornets, what the hell tactics did you arrange? Pulling away is pulling away, but someone needs to respond. It doesn't work if the space is too wide. Proper distance is still very important. What's the use if the ball can't be passed?"

"Hey, my 200 yuan!"

Min Congda watched the Hornets' final attack, Collison went deep into the basket to get a big cap, and the other players pulled away but didn't have a chance to make a phone call. He could only lament that his first salary in life was wasted.

At this moment, he felt that the last offensive tactic arranged by the Hornets coach was a dead end. The space was created but not used well, leaving the ball holder alone and helpless, which is not a good tactical design.

At the end of the game, the Clippers won the second game of the summer league. Curry scored a double-double with 17 points and 10 assists. He successfully revitalized the Clippers' offense in the second half.

Little Jordan ate cakes again, scored 21 points, made 10 of 7 shots from the basket, and half of the balls were fed by Curry.

Gordon's playing time was relatively short, but he also scored 16 points and was very efficient. He successfully defended Collison at the last moment and led him into an inside trap, causing his lore throw to be blocked.

Although it was only a summer league victory, it was still exciting for the three young people.

Especially Curry, when he was locked in the first half, he adjusted his mentality and changed his thinking, and used his flexible play to penetrate Collison's defense, making this guy completely shut up!

He felt that he had lived up to Manager Smart's expectations, and finally made a crucial game-winning shot, but it seemed that Mr. Smart was not particularly happy, his face was dispirited, and he was even a little disappointed.

Curry walked up to Min Congda and asked, "Mr. Smart, is there anything about my performance today that makes you dissatisfied?"

Min Congda thought: "Not satisfied, very dissatisfied, who made you hit the last ball, who made you overtake, who made you send so many assists!"

He could only say: "No, I am very satisfied with your performance, but...don't fight too hard, let go when it's time to let go, be careful of injuries, and save your energy for the regular season."

Curry nodded. He knew that Min Congda said this out of concern and love for himself, and he was afraid that he would get hurt, but he was not afraid!
In order to prove that Mr. Smart's choice is correct, he will work harder on the court and strive for every victory.

The Clippers will play the Grizzlies in the next game. Curry will have a face-to-face dialogue with Griffin.

Back at the hotel at night, after dinner, Min Congda locked himself in the room and lay on the bed to heal his wounded soul.

"The 200 yuan is gone again. Why is it so difficult to earn some money? I thought it would be an easy task. Damn, the difficulty has soared. The gap between the second level and the first level is too big."

"It's been half a month, and I have achieved nothing, and I feel that the Clippers are very strong in the summer league this time. Don't win a game by then, won't I just come here for nothing?"

"No, it's not in vain. I went to Las Vegas to play once, but lost $150..."

Thinking that he had lost money in gambling, Min Congda was in agony. He paid 150 even if he didn't make a penny. Who can he ask for reasoning?

But soon Min Congda regained his composure: "It's just the summer league now. It's only 200 yuan a game. It's small money. Losing a game in the regular season with 2000 yuan is the big deal. And the regular season is different from the summer league. There are a lot of masters and strong teams. It's not that easy to win!"

"Also, we can still make some articles on the team's expenses. Although we can't invest in non-basketball-related fields, there are many projects in basketball-related fields that can be developed, such as making a documentary about Curry's No. [-] pick... Oh yes, Make a documentary called Curry’s growth path, follow the whole team around, and after filming it, you find that the Clippers Curry’s performance is not good, isn’t that a sure thing to lose money?”

Min Congda suddenly found a good way to make the Clippers lose money, making a documentary!

Because he remembered reading a piece of news about Yao Ming, saying that Yao Ming's No. [-] year documentary was released and ended up losing money.

If a successful No. [-] pick like Yao Ming, plus the blessing of the Chinese halo, loses money, why does Curry not lose money?
He immediately got up and turned on the computer, searched for news about Yao Ming's documentary, and soon saw:

"The film was not promoted, $27823 "Yao Zhinian" failed at the box office in the first week": "The "Yao Zhinian" cost more than 100 million U.S. dollars and was originally planned to be released in more than ten cities across the United States this week. After the first week of release in Houston, the box office Only $27823, a fiasco."

""Yao Next Year" only sold two tickets a day, which can only be described as dismal": "...the film's total box office in the United States is only $33345...'Tickets sold so badly, we only sold today There are two out,' said the waiter at a movie theater..."

Even after turning over a few articles, they are all old news with a bad box office.

Min Congda recalled that Yao Ming was very popular in school at that time. As a person who didn’t watch basketball, he could hear words such as “Yao Ming”, “Rocket”, and “You are unreasonable” from his classmates every day. For China, it is a symbol, a basketball totem.

"Even a basketball totem like Yao Ming is so dismal at the box office for a documentary. Wouldn't it be even worse if it was replaced by Curry?"

"Yao Zhinian's investment is 100 million US dollars, which is too little. I want to increase the investment of Curry's documentary to 1000 million! Use up all the liquid funds in the team's account, and it would be better to be in debt, Yankee There are many financial financing methods here, the bank will issue a bond without giving money, and it will properly drag down the team's finances!"

Thinking of shooting a documentary, which is a good way to spend money, Min Congda's mood immediately improved.

Compared with the huge amount of capital consumption and losses in financing, borrowing, and investment projects, what is so great about losing 200 yuan after winning a game?It's just drizzle.

Anyway, all the money for food, drink and housing has been reimbursed from the team account recently. I don’t talk about my girlfriend, and I don’t have to pay the mortgage. Let’s just do it for now. We still need to look at the problem from a long-term perspective, and slowly figure it out!

Thinking of this, Min Congda immediately began to write a documentary filming project proposal. After returning to Los Angeles, after the discussion and approval of the management team, he can start bidding and filming, and pour money into it continuously!

"Haha, I'm such a genius who devours the company's finances. What I learned before is still meaningful... But what if the documentary becomes a big hit?"

"Impossible, Yao Ming is not popular, how can Curry be popular, take the lead. He can only win a few games at most, and the game is not as enjoyable as Griffin. Who wants to watch his documentary. It's settled like that. The title of the documentary is... well, L.A. jerk..."
