Chapter 449

"Basketball team? NBA major league? Why are you suddenly interested in this?"

"Er..." Tracy explained, "Uncle Bauer, you know my goal is to build a large entertainment group, and sports can also be counted as one of them."

"This reason is a little far fetched." Bauer William shook his head and said, "but if you invest, sports is a good choice."

"Hehe... Yes, investment..."

"But why basketball? Why not football! Now the NFL is better than the NBA. If you want to invest in the team, I mind you investing in the football team."

"Well... I like playing basketball," Tracy gave a reason that is not a reason.

You can't tell him that the influence of the NBA Major League will advance by leaps and bounds in more than ten years. If you enter now, you can earn several times or ten times as much in the future.

When this is said, Bauer William will only regard him as a psychopath and a hypochondriac.

But this is the truth. Tracy has long known the development of the NBA major league. People with vision may see that the NBA Major League is rising and commercialization is gradually improving. However, Tracy sees further than them. Under the operation of David Stern, through commercial packaging, star strategy and international promotion, NBA will become the most successful professional sports league in the world.

Moreover, this foreshadowing has long been buried. David Stern has been trying to build the NBA since he took office in 84 years.

Over the past 20 years, he has excavated many excellent players, including Hakim Olajuwon, Charles Buckley, John Stockton and Michael Jordan.

Among them, Jordan, Larry Bird and Magic Johnson have attracted extensive attention to the NBA, won a wide range of fans and huge profits.

It can be said that in the past 20 years, David Stern has laid a deep foundation for the NBA and eliminated many adverse factors while vigorously promoting it. Now the NBA Major League is blooming and bearing fruit. When a hundred flowers bloom, Tracy doesn't go in and take a share. He's sorry for his forced identity.

As for the NFL Major League, which has always occupied the top deal of the United States, it is really worth investing, but Tracy hasn't even touched football. How do you let him play. You'd better jump into the familiar game first. When you officially enter the market, you can slowly figure out other projects. After all, a fat man will choke if he eats it in one bite.

"Well... That's just a reason." Bauer William smiled, thinking that Tracy had a big heart and was rich and willful. He really can't persuade him. People have the strength to fool around. It's useless to say too much.

"Which team are you interested in? I can help you refer to it."

"Hehe, I just want you to help me." Tracy smiled, thought about it and said: "if the goal is, it's better to be the surrounding team, the team in Los Angeles or the team in California."

"Los Angeles Lakers and Los Angeles Clippers?" Bauer blurted out. The two local teams are more familiar.

"I still have some friendship with the buss family. I can ask for you. However, don't have too much hope. Old buss will not sell the team if he treats the Lakers as his son."

"Tut... I don't believe there are non-sale goods in the world. This is America. There's nothing that can't be solved by US dollars, just the price." Tracy said disapprovingly.

Buss is also a businessman. He didn't buy the Lakers for profit.

In 79, he spent $67 million to buy the Lakers. Now Tracy offers ten times the price or more. Who doesn't know whether he will be excited.

It's right that the Lakers have been very successful in the past two years. OK group won three consecutive titles and pushed the Lakers to the top. But prosperity is bound to decline. Now it is the post OK era. O'Neill and Kobe Bryant have broken off. The Lakers have fallen to a low point and can't score in the playoffs.

At this time, if someone buys the Lakers at a high price, will old buss hold the team in his hands. Perhaps after waiting for the subprime mortgage crisis in two or three years, this business will be easier to reach.

"You're right. No matter how stubborn the old man is, he won't be hard on the dollar." Bauer agreed. "I'll help you find out first. Don't worry about it. He shows a strong desire to buy and will be ruthlessly slaughtered by the old bass guy."

"Hehe, if you want to kill me, you should have good teeth."

Hearing this, Bauer rolled his eyes and said, "business belongs to business. Mr. Li won't come forward to help you put pressure on such a small matter as buying a team."

"I'm not a child anymore. I won't ask grandpa for help in everything." Tracy said silently. Bauer William misunderstood him and thought he was going to lift out of the old man.

Unexpectedly, Tracy wouldn't tell the old man about it at all. The old man is the king fried in his hand. It's too bad to lose the king fried for such a small thing.

"I'll do it for you and try not to disturb him," said Bauer William, patting him on the shoulder. "I haven't contacted the owner of the clippers, but I can ask someone. This team has been suppressed by the Lakers in Los Angeles. It should be easier to buy it."

"This rotten team hasn't made the playoffs for four consecutive seasons... Well, well, as one of the goals to be considered, the surrounding teams really don't have much choice."

In Los Angeles, the Lakers must be the first choice. The clippers can only be said to be better than nothing. This team is now terrible. It has won no more than 30 games for three consecutive years and has been at the bottom of the West.

Now the value of the clippers is to hang the name of the NBA major league. To put it bluntly, it is now equivalent to an admission ticket. If you buy it, the investment in the later stage will be very large, and many problems left over by history will be a headache.

"The Clippers are really bad. I don't watch their games," catered Bauer William, who will watch NBA games when he has time, but all of them watch the Lakers.

If he hadn't talked about the Clippers today, he would have forgotten that there are two teams in Los Angeles.

"There are also two teams in California, the Sacramento Kings and the Golden State Warriors. These two teams are still good."

"Well, it's also included in the investigation objectives. First try to explore these four teams. If you can't talk about it, you can talk about it. If you can't talk about it, you can focus on outside California. New York is also good, and you don't have to have surrounding teams."

Then Tracy said his specific ideas, and the two discussed while playing. Bauer William gave his own opinion. He was much more stingy than Tracy on the proposal of the purchase price. This is the real investor, not as capricious as Tracy.

During this time, Bauer William's main energy will still focus on the acquisition of Universal Pictures, and the subsequent cooperation with NBC is quite cumbersome. He is estimated to be locked in this project for the past two years and has no time to take into account the acquisition of the team.

Tracy doesn't need him to personally preside over the acquisition of the team, just set up a special acquisition team in protein to be responsible to him.

The acquisition of the team is just his whim, and it is not a big project. Relatively speaking, the matter of universal film is more important, which is related to the layout of his whole Hollywood.

After having lunch at Tracy's villa at noon, Bauer William will leave and return the news in about a week.

"I'm sorry, Leon. I just talked to Uncle Bauer and didn't take you into account. Is it very boring? Why don't we find Toby and go out to play?"

After Bauer William left, Tracy apologized to the little plum who came to visit today. I've been talking about business just now, leaving this bad friend out of the cold. Little plum has been listening and can't talk.

"It doesn't matter, man!" little plum smiled carelessly. Tracy didn't avoid him when talking about such a big business just now, which has given him a lot of face.

"Do you really want to buy a team? Wow, that's cool."

"Hmm, I have this idea. You heard it just now. First investigate the four surrounding teams. Why, are you interested? If you are interested, I can count you."

"Don't... I don't have the money. Playing the team... Only rich people like you can afford to play." little plum refused.

He pulled out a cigar from the cigar box. Tracy lit it for him and said, "hehe, you'll be rich when the aviator is released. Then there's the wind and rain, plus the gift I gave you last time."

"I'm going to buy a house in Malibu. Your house is good. I'm going to be your neighbor. Forget the team. When you buy the Lakers and give me a VIP season ticket."

"The Lakers? Are you a Lakers fan?" Tracy shrugged and said helplessly, "you heard just now that the Lakers will be in trouble. The old buss who owns it is just an old fox."

"I'm a loyal fan of the Lakers, and I only watch their games." Xiao Li took a cigar and winked at Tracy. "I believe you can handle the Lakers. I'll support you when I'm free. If it's another team, don't blame me for not being loyal."

"Leon, you boy... Well, I'll try my best. If I win the Lakers, I'll definitely make you a doll and stand at the gate of the stadium as a mascot."

"Well, that sounds like a good idea." little plum touched his chin, looked at Tracy and said, "how much advertising fee are you going to give me..."

"Cut, still want money?" Tracy despised, "there's no money. You have to work for me for free."

"Black hearted capitalist......" little plum muttered, then nuzui said, "go and open a bottle of good wine for me. I should charge interest first. No, it should be to compensate my spiritual loss. Last time you damaged my good deed, I haven't settled with you."

"Compensate for your mental loss?" Tracy said silently, "I gave you a big gift. You even want me to compensate you. Are you wrong?"

"Hum... One yard to one yard. You broke my good deed, and this account can't be settled like this." little plum played a rogue, "I managed to get that chick, and you got yellowed when you called."

"Hahaha..." Tracy laughed gloating. "Leon... How do you say you missed that day? Hahaha... It seems that I want to talk to tobe..."

"Damn... You threaten me..." little plum's face suddenly turned black. Tobe was famous for his big mouth. Let him know, which means everyone knows.

"Who told you that your request was so unreasonable." Tracy picked it out and held out a hand.

"What do you want?"

"Give me back the script," Tracy cried. "You didn't say that my gift ruined your good deeds, so you'll give me back the gift I gave you."

"Bah... Don't even think about it... You still want to take back what you sent. Don't dream. It's already mine. When the storm is over... No... Start preparations now. The two projects will be carried out at the same time."

"He also said he was not satisfied with my gift..." Tracy looked at little plum contemptuously. "I've already reported it. I'm going to hand over this project to amazing film. I said in advance that I want to account for the majority. You can invest in the film with pay or bring money in, and I can give you 20-30% of the share."

"No problem, I can almost eat so much." little plum thought about it and said, "by the way, has the director been determined? I asked Martin, he is not very interested. And the actor... The heroine candidate I can recommend to you."

"I'm still thinking about the director. Don't interfere in the actors. However, the name of the film can be decided for you..."

"It's boring..." little plum looked uninterested, but he still said: "bloody diamond or bloody diamond are good, and the name goes straight to the theme."
