legendary point guard

Gambling, this is the last thing David Stern wants to see, and it is also the fundamental reason why Las Vegas has not been recognized by David Stern for so many years and has an NBA team.

David Stern hopes that the entire league has nothing to do with gambling, and once Las Vegas has an nba team, it's hard to say.

Especially at this time, there are less than two months and a year before the Tim Donaghy gambling scandal that was exposed during the offseason. The gambling scandal once caused the league to be criticized.

If the FBI hadn't finally come forward to confirm that Donaghy's gambling was a personal act, then the image of the league that David Stern worked so hard to create would be ruined.

The possibility theory of the "Orange County Register" suddenly made David Stern nervous.

Although he didn't believe that Lin Sen would participate in gambling, after all, Lin Sen's company was developing rapidly and his personal prospects were bright, so he didn't have to worry about money at all.

As long as Lin Sen thinks, there are countless companies willing to give Lin Sen a crazy big contract, but since the "Orange County Register" has raised doubts, David Stern, as the president of the league, will always respond.

However, before responding, he had a phone call with David Falk to ensure that the two had the same statement and the same way of handling it.

The possibility theory of the "Orange County Register" was quickly exaggerated by a gossip magazine.

The magazine said that because Dina Lohan is Lindsay Lohan's mother, Lindsay Lohan is Lin Sen's ex-girlfriend, and now she has given birth to a daughter for Lin Sen, and at the same time she has been living in Lin Sen's home.

And Lindsay's mother Dina participated in gambling, and Lin Sen finally paid off the debt for Dina Lohan.

The magazine asked Lin Sen to disclose the details of the debt repayment with Las Vegas, and asked for a receipt. At the same time, he hoped that the alliance would let the FBI intervene in the investigation to ensure Lin Sen's innocence.

On the surface, it was for Lin Sen to clear his innocence, but in fact, he questioned Lin Sen in a different direction.

"I don't know what to say, maybe I'm really short of money!" Lin Sen, who walked out of the house, said to the reporters squatting in front of his villa, "FBI agents came to check me, I know what some reporters say. How sorry for the word mouth. So I don't mind letting them prove my innocence.

I just want to say that I really don't like 2000 million. If those guys are too poor to eat, I don't mind putting a big pot at my door and providing them with free rice 24 hours a day.

That's all I have to say! "

Lin Sen's public response.Let countless fans support, just as David Stern thought, Lin Sen is not short of money.

"Is Wood still short of money? Is MJ Wood the richest one?"

"It should be, but Wood. Lin's company failed to disclose the specific accounts. I only know that Wood's salary and endorsement fees alone exceed 5000 million US dollars. Needless to say, he still has a company."

"How much was Forbes Wood's value last year? 15 or 20? I think once Wood wins the championship this year, the price will definitely exceed 20 billion. It's a terrifying gold-absorbing ability."

"Wood chose the right person. My goddess Paris Hilton proved that she is not a vase in front of Wood."

"Lindsay seems to have been at odds with her before, but this time Paris did a good job and deserves praise. I'm going to buy a pair of the legendary 2.5mvp version, but unfortunately there are only 200 pairs in the world, f... uck."

"It's really rare. I know that Paris was also included in Wood's harem. I bet it is for sure. Otherwise, I would strip naked and run naked for five days."

"Hey dude, the whole world knows, don't you just wait naively for them to make it public.

This is absolutely impossible. In fact, I hope that after the FBI intervenes, Wood's private life can be disclosed. Am I a bit evil! "

The vast majority of positive discussions online have nothing to do with gambling, much to the disappointment of some media outlets.

They thought they would steer public opinion.It made Lin Sen feel the pressure, and as a result, the public almost overwhelmingly did not believe that Lin Sen would gamble in this way.

"Wood, don't worry, no one will believe you betting on football, only those guys whose heads are lifted by donkeys will think so." David Falk said with a smile on the phone.

He received a call from David Stern, who told him that the FBI would definitely get involved.I hope he will let Lin Sen cooperate.

For this request, David Falk readily agreed.

The Cleveland Cavaliers and Boston Celtics, as well as the Lakers, Rockets, and Spurs in the West, are not in the mood to pay too much attention to the gossip about Linsen's involvement in gambling.

Before the sixth game between the Lakers and the Rockets, Kobe and McGrady faced media interviews and asked about Linson's possible involvement in gambling.

Kobe said with a smile in the locker room: "Does that Wood guy still gamble? If he needs to gamble, I don't think the rest of the league will be able to survive.

I'm planning to have a good discussion with Wood during the offseason, whether I can be brought with me when I make money next time.Although I don't have as much money as him, I can still spend 6000 to [-] million. I think he can definitely help me change more. "

When McGrady responded, he broke out a big news: "That guy Wood is not short of money, although this guy is almost as stingy as Bryant.

What I can say is that when Wood Forest Company was established half a year ago, its revenue was nearly [-] million yuan, and its profit exceeded [-] million yuan. As for now, I estimate that there should be no problem in doubling it. "

For Tracy McGrady broke the news, the reporters were obviously taken aback.

You must know that although Wood Forest Company is favored by economic experts and industry insiders, it is unimaginable that it can achieve such a high income within half a year of its establishment.

Lin Sen didn't know that McGrady had exposed the half-year income of Wood Forest Company. This was also the time when everyone got together. When Lin Sen received a call from Paris Hilton, McGrady and Kobe heard it.

"[-] million in half a year, Wood's worth? "—this was the headline of USA TODAY's news on the second day.

90 million in half a year is enough to attract the attention of countless people. NBA professional players had limited salaries in the past years, and almost none of the players who retired in the 3000s had a total career income of more than [-] million.

The current NBA players only earn at least one million a year in salary, and after deducting the heavy tax of 100 million, they only get more than 40 points.

This income level is still the lowest level in the league. The highest annual salary is more than 2000 million yuan, and there are almost 1000 million yuan left after getting it.

The current salary of the entire career is the Shaquille O'Neal who plays for the Phoenix Suns, with a total of less than 3 million US dollars.

In the end, it was only about 1.5 million in the hands of O'Neal, and the divorce incident in November last year exposed O'Neal's total assets.

After marrying Shani, O'Neill's deposits plus real estate such as real estate and cars totaled almost 1.8 million, and before marriage, O'Neill's total assets did not exceed 3 million US dollars.

O'Neal's total assets are not the first among active players, but also very high.In addition to the retired business legends Jordan, Olajuwon, Magic Johnson and others have a lot of assets.

The amount of 1 million in just half a year can overwhelm everyone, even though Wood Forest's profit is only more than [-] million.

But this is only half a year, and it is still when the company just started.

You must know that in the past half a year or so, the rapid and steady pace of Wood Forest's development is obvious to all.

Lin Sen's financial resources make countless people envious.David Stern has never understood this.

When he saw the news, he had an idea that this time he was helping Lin Sen clarify the scandal, so he must get something.

The nba has always had its own players union, the purpose is to help nba players retire.

To avoid the bankruptcy of some players after retirement because they are not good at financial management, there are too many such examples.

When they were football stars, many players had chaotic private lives, many women and illegitimate children, never felt bad about spending money, and had extravagant spending habits.

And financial management is very blind, do not understand at all.It is very easy to manage money to the point of losing money in the end, which directly leads to no income once retired, and some players can even go bankrupt within a year or two.

Even if the wages of players are much better than in the past, this phenomenon happens from time to time.

What worries David Stern more is Allen Iverson, who is now playing for the Denver Nuggets. The answers from countless fans really give him a headache.

Although he doesn't like the appearance of such bohemian and eclectic players in the league on the surface.But actually he likes it.

Just like he seemed to hate Rodman at the beginning, in fact, he loves Rodman more than most people in his heart.

Because Rodman can bring attention to the NBA and can bring benefits.

It is no exaggeration to say that Rodman in the 90s is the one with the most guaranteed box office besides Jordan, and he can be sought after by countless people even in away games.

Although this pursuit may be to see if Rodman will make extraordinary moves on the court, he does not deny Rodman's contribution to the league.

Iverson is not as exaggerated as Rodman, but his style of play and personality are very popular, and countless people regard him as their idol.

But he is very bad at managing money.David Stern knows that Iverson still supports hundreds of relatives and friends. Once Iverson retires, he can imagine how bad the impact of these people will be.

In fact, David Stern's worries are not bad at all. Although Iverson looks good in reality, there are constant rumors of bankruptcy, but in fact there are almost few.

Iverson's endorsement company Reebok has the same consideration.Their contract with Iverson is for life, but in order to prevent Iverson from going bankrupt, they wrote in the contract once Iverson retires.

The payment method of this lifetime contract will be issued on a regular basis every month, rather than handed over to Iverson for one year at a time.

The funds of the players union are also invested by special people to generate benefits. This is the same as many charitable foundations in the United States, which use money to invest every year.A portion of the profits are then donated to charity.

This money is not linked to the profits of the official nba league, but is handled by the players union itself.

Although he is not in charge of the funds of the players union, he also knows that the investment and financial benefits of the players union are not very obvious.

David Stern's idea was to get the players' union to agree to spend a considerable amount of money from the original funds and tie it up with Linsen's Wood Forest Company.

Before that, he also knew that Wood Forest Company was developing rapidly, and with the help of business giants such as the Hilton family, Twitter, Adidas, and Armani, there was little risk.

But he didn't expect to make money that much, until he saw the newspaper in front of him.

In this way, he can avoid risks as much as possible, and then get more rewards, and save him from worrying about the situation of the players union.

After all, the league's income is not bad every year, but these incomes are not given to the players union, but to the team owner.

If the players union can be linked with Wood Lin, he is very willing to do so.

Of course, if there are other promising companies willing to accept the funds, he hopes that the players union will agree, but the problem is that there are no such companies.

Now Wood Forest Company has obviously become an opportunity, and he hopes that the players union can agree to his suggestion.

"What? David Stern hopes that we can accept part of the players' union funds. To invest in my company?" Lin Sen was very surprised.

"Yes, you heard me right, that old guy doesn't know how he thought of this." Although David Falk doesn't hold many shares in Wood Forest Company, he is an old man.

Follow this momentum.Wood Forest Company will definitely go public in a few years, and it is a conservative estimate that his net worth will double by ten times once it goes public.

"What did Paris say?" Lin Sen didn't know much about this, but he knew that if a company didn't lack money for development, the money coming in would only dilute the company's profits.

If the company lacks any funds, then coming in is to help, saving money from those vampires.

"Paris said that you can make up your own mind on this matter, but she gave a few suggestions."

"Which suggestions?"

"First, the players' union money can only be used as investment funds and does not occupy company shares. After the money is invested, it will be returned to the league at a minimum of 5% and a maximum of 20% per year.

That is.Regardless of whether the money comes in to help the company make a profit or lose money, we will give at least 5% to the alliance.

And once the profit exceeds 20%, then I will only give 20% of the money, and the rest will belong to us.

Just like the money is deposited in the bank, the saver gets the interest himself. "

Lin Sen listened carefully.If the alliance invests 500 million yuan, then the money will be divided into at least 2000 million yuan, and at most [-] million yuan, which doesn't seem like a lot.

According to the company's development momentum, the current income of 2000 million is almost [-] million, and it is destined to continue in the future.

"Then what about the second one?"

"Second, we can't help for nothing. Otherwise, they can go to other agencies, can't they?

They have to establish a strategic partnership with us, such as some advertisements, the alliance must help! "Paris Hilton would bring it up even if she didn't say it.

"Thirdly, it is natural to consider cooperation. We will get more authorization from the NBA to develop some other products, not just games. For example, exclusive sneakers for each NBA team. Of course, we will not produce jerseys, clothes, hats, etc., otherwise Adidas will not agree.

And there will be more in-depth cooperation. We have the right to participate in some official activities of the NBA. Of course, we will not give fees.

Some others haven't figured it out yet.These three points are emphasized by Paris. If you think it is ok, then we will reply like this.

If they agree, then we don't mind taking some money in. "

Lin Sen thought about it, and felt that there was no problem: "I don't think there is any problem, so we will follow Paris's advice."

"Okay, then I'll reply to her!"

"Wood, what's the matter?" Natalie Portman asked, looking at the smiling Lin Sen.

"Leagues may work with us, they want to invest a certain amount of money in us, and then we are responsible for sharing the profits with them.

Paris made some requests, and I think there is no problem, so I agreed, and now I will see the reaction of the league and the players union. "

"The league wants to cooperate with us? And there is capital investment. This is a good business. Now the NBA is developing very fast."

"It's not the money of the NBA, it's the players' union. David Stern is just a matchmaker. In the end, the players' union negotiates with us. It's really good if it succeeds." In Lin Sen's view, the two sides almost got what they wanted.

"Well, I don't understand these things, but I plan to study economics when I quit the entertainment industry in the future. I believe in my IQ."

"You don't trust Paris?" Lin Sen joked.

"Am I that kind of person? But I also have plans. You guys are definitely not willing. Someone has to stand up. KK and the others are obviously unwilling, and Paris is likely to take over the Hilton Group.

Wouldn't it be better if I could learn it, at least it would save a lot of hiring fees to invite senior managers, wouldn't it? "

"Okay, you're right, what did Lindsay say?" Originally, Lin Sen planned to accompany Lindsay Lohan to New York, but Lindsay refused in the end.

After all, Lin Sen was still recovering from his injuries from the outside world, and Paris Hilton was also in New York, so Lin Sen agreed that she would return to New York alone to join Paris Hilton.

"Here, she called me, and everything has been dealt with. She wants to stay at home for two days." Natalie Portman patted her head, "I almost forgot that Annie and Amy are about to drink milk, so Blame you, I almost forgot.

Let them starve and you're screwed. "

Seeing Natalie Portman hurriedly running upstairs, Lin Sen couldn't help laughing.

On May 5, four days after Lin Sen might be involved in the gambling theory, the FBI officially announced that there was no such possibility.

However, the fbi did not disclose the specific assets of Lin Sen, which made the reporters very depressed.

However, on the same afternoon, Paris Hilton led a professional business negotiating team of ten people and the player union negotiating team to conduct three-day negotiations at the Hilton Hotel in Manhattan, New York.

However, the outside world didn't know at this time that the players' union and Wood Lynch were going to cooperate under the auspices of the league, and all the media focused on the upcoming Eastern and Western Conference semifinals.

The Cleveland Cavaliers and the Boston Celtics scored 3:3, and the Los Angeles Lakers and the Houston Rockets in the West also scored 3:3 to enter the life-and-death tiebreaker, while the defending champion San Antonio Spurs and the New Orleans Hornets did the same.

The three tiebreakers also made the playoffs crazy. Only the Orlando Magic waited for the next round of opponents to be the Cavaliers or the Celtics.
