Recast youth

Chapter 1765

"How are things going with the team?"

As soon as Ye Feng, Wen Yueqi and Dixon returned to the hotel, Chen Huang and Zhou Yihang came over to ask.

"It's not good at the moment."

Ye Feng said something first, then looked at a few people and said with interest: "By the way, I watched this year's draft at Schultz's house. Yi Jianlian is included in this year's NBA draft list."

"Yes, don't you know?"

Zhou Yihang looked at Ye Feng and said, "He is in New York right now. The draft will be held at the Madison Square Garden Theater on June 6. I thought you knew about it."

"I don't know. I have been busy with the company's IPO roadshow during this period and have not paid attention to NBA matters. Unless I saw this year's draft list from Schultz, I didn't even know that Yi Jianlian also participated in the NBA draft this year."

Ye Feng shook his head, and then suddenly remembered that the NBA draft will be held in New York on the 28th, and Lanshan will be listed on May 5th. After the company successfully completes the listing, he can go and take a look.

"Yeah, you're too busy."

Zhou Yihang nodded. He has been flying in the sky these days. Ye Feng really doesn't have time to pay attention to the NBA draft. Yi Jianlian is somewhat famous in the domestic basketball field, but he is still far behind compared to someone of Ye Feng's level. , it can be said that as long as Ye Feng wants, he can buy the entire CBA team to play with himself. Although it is one thing to say whether they can be sold or not, Ye Feng can indeed afford it.

Hou Yao asked: "Brother Feng, tell me clearly, how confident are you that you can win this Sonics team?"

"I really can't tell."

Ye Feng looked at Hou Yao with a smile and said: "You also know that the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Let's wait until you buy it to save yourself the disappointment of not buying it when you get it."

"I'm not talking about him, I'm talking about you. How sure do you feel?" Hou Yao was a little unwilling to get an accurate answer from Ye Feng. After all, it is an NBA team, which is not meaningful to a basketball enthusiast. the same.

"You look like you're really anxious. Can you play basketball?"

Chen Huang became happy when he saw Hou Yaohou's anxious look.

Hou Yao retorted: "I'm not happy to hear this, what? I like watching ghost movies, I have to find a ghost to accompany me? After all, none of the NBA teams are Chinese. If Brother Feng buys it, , it also gives us face."

"That's true."

Chen Huang was too lazy to talk to Hou Yaojiang, but Hou Yao was right about one thing, that is, if Ye Feng really bought the Sonics, it would be a big news in China.

At least among domestic basketball fans, Ye Feng is definitely a god.

Seeing that Hou Yao really wanted to know, Ye Feng thought for a moment and said, "I hope it's 5%. It's hard to say how much it is. After all, Schultz has promised others in advance, otherwise there would be no problem buying this team."

Hou Yao sighed: "For the first time, I hope that a foreigner will not be an honest person."

"Let the team's affairs be as they happen."

Wen Yueqi had been with Ye Feng from the beginning to the end. When she saw Ye Feng and others discussing the hope of buying the SuperSonics, she smiled at Ye Feng and said calmly: "But I think Schultz will sell the team to your."

"How to say?"

Ye Feng became interested.

Wen Yueqi explained: "Dixon said at Schultz's house that Bennett bought the SuperSonics to move the team out of Seattle. Schultz would not take such a risk, otherwise his Starbucks might Boycotted by the entire people of Seattle.”

Ye Feng pursed his lips and did not comment.

In fact, he knows that the real big market for Starbucks is in China. In his previous life, Starbucks was so popular in China that almost all coffee shops in China compete with Starbucks.

Either become Starbucks or surpass Starbucks.

But there is always only one Starbucks, not a second one.Then Ye Feng looked at Dixon, who had been silent. Dixon was a very good banker. When Ye Feng, Wen Yueqi and others were chatting, he rarely spoke.

The sense of presence is also very low.

But Ye Feng has seen Dixon's high-spirited and strong presence during road shows. He can only say what kind of aura Dixon exerts on any occasion, whether he is soft or strong.

"How confident would you be if you were completely responsible for buying the team?"

Ye Feng still wants Dixon to take over completely. After all, acquiring an NBA team is quite complicated. The company will be listed in New York on May 5, and he has no time to delay here.

"[-]% sure."

Dixon had been waiting for Ye Feng to ask questions. He raised his head and said confidently: "Mr. Ye, you can leave the acquisition of the SuperSonics completely to me. Then don't ask about the rest of the matter. I will be responsible for handing over the acquired team." for you."

After Dixon finished speaking, Chen Huang couldn't help but glance at Dixon, he was such a confident person.

Wen Yueqi watched the excitement with a smile. After Dixon said that he would completely leave the acquisition of the team to him, Wen Yueqi knew that Dixon was going to use some methods, and these methods were also normal business methods.

Of course, it's a bit disgraceful.

So Ye Feng had to withdraw from this matter.

"Tell me your plan." Ye Feng said to Dixon. He could leave the acquisition of the SuperSonics to Dixon, but he had to listen to Dixon's plan.

"You first register a basketball club in the city where you want to move the team."

Dixon began to talk about the plan: "Then I or your friends will name themselves, and then you will take control of Schultz. I will follow up and expose Bennett and they will move the Sonics to Oklahoma. City will take the opportunity to broker a team deal with Schultz when the time comes."

"What about after the trade? If I move the team, Schultz won't sue me?" Ye Feng thought for a moment and asked.

"will not."

Dixon shook his head: "I negotiated with him from beginning to end about the acquisition of the team. It was also my decision to move the team. It has nothing to do with you. Even if Schultz wants to sue, he can only sue me..."

When Dixon said this, Ye Feng understood.

No wonder Dixon asked him to register a basketball club using his name or someone else's name. It turned out to be a way to take the blame. After running the company for so long, Ye Feng has already understood one thing. The most important thing about a company is not the shares, nor you. It is the name of the legal person of the company. The most important thing is your control over the company. Only with control can you decide the direction of the company.

In his previous life, Jack Ma only held about 6% of Alibaba's shares, and he is still the actual controller of Alibaba.

Therefore, the most important thing for a company is control. In fact, the legal person of many companies is not held by the big boss, but by a person who takes the blame. This is especially true for some scam companies. One month supports the so-called legal person of the company.

Then Dixon talked about some follow-up plans.

In Schultz's mind, he first planted the seeds of doubt that Bennett would move away after buying the Sonics, and then used both soft and hard tactics to buy the team. As for whether the team would eventually stay in Seattle, Dixon would not It was implemented into the contract, and he wouldn't even explain it in the email, and then found excuses to move the team out.

After listening to Dixon's plan, Ye Feng decisively handed over the acquisition of the SuperSonics to Dixon. As for Dixon's statement that if Schultz refused to trade, he might threaten Schultz with the acquisition of the coffee shop brand. Ertz, Ye Feng didn't think it was anything.

Because he successfully bought the Sonics, this sentence is a threat.

If the purchase fails, then this sentence is not necessarily a threat.

Ye Feng is also very coveted about Starbucks' status in China in ten years. It is not impossible to consider finding a coffee shop abroad that has a similar brand positioning to Starbucks and acquiring it, and then enter the country.

As for marketing, it’s also very simple.

The case of Starbucks in the previous life is the best example. To follow the example, it is also a foreign coffee brand. The moon in foreign countries is relatively round, and the foreign coffee should also be quite fragrant.
