Chapter 642 Sports Business
"what is this?"

"You're invited to Vivian's concert."

Little Gilbert touched his head and said, "What does this concert have to do with me?"

"The tickets have been given to you. Many people who want to watch the show can't get tickets."

"Okay!" Little Gilbert has only seen one concert in his past and present lives, and that was Jay Chou's. Of course, if the annual Super Bowl halftime show is counted, then he has actually seen it quite a few times.

In addition, Avril Lavigne and Taylor Swift also sang at his birthday party, but it shouldn't be considered a concert.

Avril Lavigne is now very popular and is hailed as the little rock queen by Rolling Stone magazine. She and Gilbert Jr. have the same agent, Sheena Boone.

After her last concert of the year, Avril Lavigne is about to produce her third studio album, so she invited some good friends to her concert.

Little Gilbert thought about it and called Scarlett: "Scarlett, come to the concert with me!"

Scarlett agreed immediately: "Great, great, whose concert is it? Maroon 5 or Coldplay?"

"Neither, it's Vivian's," replied little Gilbert.

Scarlett pursed her lips: "Are you attracted to this little girl?"

"What nonsense are you talking about? He is two months older than you!" Little Gilbert said speechlessly: "Are you going or not? If not, I will ask Andrew to go with you."

"I'll go, I'll go..." It had been a long time since they had a date together, so Scarlett agreed immediately.

After making an appointment with Scarlett, Little Gilbert hung up the phone and Sheena Boone talked about another thing.

"I heard that Transformers is planning to replace both Andrew and Megan Fox."

Little Gilbert raised his eyebrows, indicating that he was not surprised: “It’s normal, Andrew just finished filming my drama, and Megan was poached by you from Michael Ovitz.

Continuing to let the two of them shoot would be equivalent to increasing their qualifications and fame. If it were me, I would also change.

Besides, the point of Transformers has never been the human actors. Who goes to the movies, not to see the Autobots? "

Sheena Boone nodded: "That's true, but I have to be responsible. Do you have a suitable project?"

"Andrew's role as David Martinez will be a classic, so just give him normal roles. As for Megan, it won't be a big problem for her to just be a vase in a commercial movie," said Gilbert Jr.

Out of kindness, we rescued them, and the rest of their development depends on them. At least here at Little Gilbert, everyone has equal opportunities.

Starting with Andrew Garfield and Megan Fox, Gilbert Jr. wants to send a signal to other mid- and low-level actors in Hollywood.

If you don't want to be oppressed and forced to serve certain bigwigs, you can come to him.

Of course, little Gilbert is not here to be a moral role model, but sometimes he stands on the moral high ground to criticize others. That feeling makes people feel refreshed.

There are many cases like Megan Fox in Hollywood. Although these people don't play a big role, they are indispensable to transform Hollywood from Blue to Little Gilbert.

Little Gilbert has already thought of the slogan: a Hollywood that is fair, open, free, without oppression, and full of opportunities.

Of course, slogans are just shouting, but as long as Gilbert does better than the other side, most people will support him. This world is not about who does better, but who is worse.

After the evil dragon is slain, little Gilbert will become the new evil dragon. Then the oppression and hidden rules will come.

It's just that within the current set of rules, Gilbert Jr.'s words don't count. So he wants to change to his own rules, and he will have the final say in Hollywood from now on.

Let the so-called ZZ correctness, the black mermaid, the black snow princess and other ugly protagonists go to hell, his Hollywood will always be only handsome men and beautiful women. Before going to the concert, little Gilbert also took time to watch a team game.

It is said that ever since he bought the Seattle SuperSonics, changed the name to the Thunder, and built a new stadium, he has not paid much attention to his own basketball team.

The Seattle Thunder have not been doing well in the past two years, always struggling on the edge of the playoffs. The team leader Ray Allen has been criticized by the outside world for being a softie, and the team has not been able to get a good draft pick.

The reason for going to watch the Thunder this time is because Gilbert Jr. feels that the timing is very, very good.

So in the VIP box of the team's new arena, the Fruit Center, Gilbert Jr. talked with the general manager of the Thunder: "This season, if the team can play, then play. If not, then give up.

At the same time, we are looking to trade Ray Allen and Sharad Lewis, draft a good rookie next season and rebuild around him.”

The Thunder's general manager asked, "Boss, are you interested in the talented Greg Oden?"

If the boss makes a move, David Stern will have to give him face and even the No. 1 pick is a possibility.

However, Little Gilbert shook his head and said, "It depends on the situation. Maybe there are better ones."

If I remember correctly, Kevin Durant and Greg Oden were in the same class.

Although Kevin Durant is always thinking about Scarlett's bath water, this guy's basketball skills are still pretty good, at least for little Gilbert, an outsider.

There have been many outstanding players since then, such as Derrick Rose, Russell Westbrook, James Harden, Stephen Curry and so on.

Although having many superstars in basketball does not necessarily mean that you can win the championship, it seems to have a lot of selling points and there is great potential for operation.

Not surprisingly, the boss personally supervised this game, and although the players tried their best, they still lost due to the huge gap.

Gilbert Jr. was not angry. Even if the core player Ray Allen was going to be sold, Gilbert Jr. still greeted it with a smile.

"You played very well. It was exciting. Although it's a pity to lose, at least we played well."

Seeing his boss say this, Ray Allen immediately assured: "Don't worry, I will definitely lead the team to the playoffs this season."

"Just do your best." Gilbert Jr. patted Ray Allen on the shoulder, affirming his efforts.

However, it may be a bit difficult to make the playoffs in the wild Western Conference with the current lineup.

On the way back, Gilbert Jr. suddenly had an idea: "What do you think if we get Yao here? Then we can draft a good perimeter player to partner with us."

Kevin Durant, Derrick Rose and Yao Ming, this lineup would make James, Wade and Bosh tremble. Of course, they have to be in their prime.

Ming Yao has shooting range and a good touch in mid-range, Derrick Rose has strong impact, Kevin Durant can shoot as soon as he can, and what if there is another Curry or Harden to play as a shooting guard?

Wow, that’s exaggerated!

The general manager of the Thunder was stunned: "Boss, this is probably not realistic. The Rockets will not let him go."

Gilbert shrugged and said, "Go ahead and give it a try. Just in case, you can tell the Rockets that you can pick any one you like."

The general manager of the Thunder smiled bitterly and could only agree to give it a try, but he felt that the hope of success was not very high.

In the NBA, big men are always more popular than guards. After several years of growth, the Eastern giant has become one of the best inside players. The Rockets must be crazy to let him go...

But like little Gilbert said, go and give it a try, what if it works?
