Standing pretty old

Chapter 332 Unpredictable G2
On May 2008, 5, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, the Lakers VS Spurs in the Western Conference Finals G21 battle.

Stern came to the scene and watched the game. In the West, the war between the Spurs and the Lakers has continued from the last century to this century. The Lakers occasionally lag behind, and the Spurs have always been strong. But this season, the Lakers are obviously more champions.

In the first three quarters, the Spurs had a slight advantage, but in the last quarter, Kobe Bryant suddenly entered the explosive state, scoring 14 points in a single quarter, taking away the Spurs in a wave, and successfully defending his home court.

Although his regular season MVP has been greatly questioned, after all, whether it is Kraft Nguyen who won the bunker data, or Chris Paul who is far more efficient than him, they have been called wrong, but as long as the Lakers can finally win the championship , then all the controversies will disappear.

After the game, under the cover of the staff, Stern went directly to the airport. He was going to fly to Atlanta to watch the G3 game between the Celtics and the Hawks in person.

It is not easy to be the chairman of the alliance. He has to fly around when he is old.

Stern's energy is actually not as good as before. He has been cultivating his successor, and Silver is the number one candidate so far.

Stern is, as his name suggests, the King David of the League (the king of Israel, the king of spades on a playing card), however the man who rises from the shepherd to the throne must have a group of greedy and unruly fellows to help he.

The United States is not a celestial dynasty, and there is no rule like Zhu Yuanzhang who kills heroes when he wins the world, so Stern must tolerate the existence of these guys for the sake of harmony and stability, even if he doesn't like them.

Xiao Hua is different, the rule of one emperor and one courtier is also applicable in the United States. When he enters the alliance and establishes a solid foundation, he will inevitably use the old to learn the new to completely kick out those who do not follow the rules.

It's like King Solomon obeyed King David's last words, and finally killed Jogah and Shimei.Those guys in the alliance, if they don't know how to restrain themselves, they will face disaster sooner or later.

Of course, there is still some time before Stern's departure, and the NBA is still growing in a thriving scene.

In the morning of the same day, Ruan Erniu met Han Lei in a cafe in Boston. After a while, this kid looked more and more like an IT elite.

Han Lei said: "I watched yesterday's game on TV. The Hawks beat the Celtics so badly. I heard that your chances of winning the championship have climbed to the highest!"

Er Niu smiled and said: "Johnny, you are a programmer, you should not understand the relationship between such things as probability and the actual result. The game is played out one by one, and the probability is only a reference for gamblers when placing bets , there is no way to help us win."

"Recently, is there any news about my sister?"

"Well, yes, I just spoke on the phone last night, and now the communication has basically been restored. But she won't be back for a while, the disaster area is too miserable, but the later it is, the less chance of surviving. They are now I'm just trying my best." Ruan Erniu said in a low voice.

"I've also organized employees to donate. It's a little bit of help, after all, they are my compatriots." Han Lei said.

Er Niu laughed and said, "I didn't expect that sometimes, you Americans are more reliable than people from the Celestial Dynasty!"

Ruan Erniu is of course referring to those unspeakable voices on the Internet after the earthquake, such as a girl surnamed Zhang (actually her surname should be Gao) who made a lot of nonsense. , Her actions also violated relevant laws.

Han Lei also smiled and said, "People are different, we just have to be ourselves. By the way, as you expected, Jobs called me again, and he wanted to find time to meet with the two of us again."

Er Niu shook his head and said, "I don't have time now, but I also received his call. Johnny, what do you think? I want to hear your opinion."

Han Lei took a sip of coffee and said after a while, "To be honest, I want to reject him, but I don't want to completely cut off contact with Jobs."

"It's a contradictory statement, let's talk about it in detail."

"It's actually very simple. I won't sell DROPBOX as a whole. Of course, I can't sell it without your consent. But I hope to select capable technical personnel from within the company, re-establish a company dedicated to serving Apple, and then let this companies are used by Apple."

"As long as it is something that Jobs likes, he, the tyrant, will do everything possible to get it. After all, what he likes is your cloud technology. As for DROPBOX itself, he may not be so determined to eat it. The economic crisis is so big. Seriously, Apple’s stock price is not doing well this year.” Ruan Erniu said.

Han Lei nodded and said, "Who says it's not? I don't want to have a bad relationship with him, but it's obviously not in our interest to be swallowed by him, especially when our financial situation is so good. But whether it can be successful or not, I will not sure."

Er Niu nodded and said: "It will be too late to do it when you are sure. I don't have time to see Jobs. I will leave the specific matters to you and Steven. I believe you will come up with a proper solution.

If we take a long-term view, there are still many threats to us, and Google will focus on this sooner or later, and we must learn to race against time.I don't think it will take long for Apple's I series to have new members. "

Han Lei smiled and said, "Actually, the name Jobs has already been chosen. He told me about his general intentions during the last call!"

Ruan Erniu asked with interest: "What name?"

"icloud!"

Americans are really direct. Of course, in business negotiations, this directness can greatly improve efficiency and accuracy.

……

2008 5 Month 22 Day.

It is still the TD North Shore Garden Arena, where the Eagles will have a G2 battle with the Celtics.

Before the start of the game, the players of the two teams showed two completely different states before the game.

For the Eagles, there was laughter and laughter, although in the first game, they all felt that it was a bit easy to win.But a win is a win, and the winner deserves everything.

The Celtics, on the other hand, were serious and tense, as if they were a team that would soon go to the enemy's rear to perform a death-defying mission.Even though everyone has the heart to see death as home, but the body is still inevitably tense.

Er Niu accepted an interview with CSN reporter Charlotte Blakelin before the game.

"We will not relax ourselves in G2. The Celtics are very strong. We must prepare for the worst. Of course I hope to return to Atlanta with a score of 2:0. This is the best beginning of the story."

For the Celtics, Pierce also accepted an interview later.

"We lost the first game. In the past two days, we have been studying the video and even watching the replay frame by frame. I think we have found a way. We will definitely win G2!"

It remains to be seen whether Pierce is talking big, or has really found something to crack the "Eagle Raid".

However, the on-site commentator Tom Heinsohn only used one sentence to express what the Celtics will do in this game: "Which is more painful, hard work or regret?"

By the way, this is the Celtics team training!
