Chapter 215 Hello and Me
The atmosphere in the ward was somewhat depressing, and David Stern and Adam Silver became more and more embarrassed.
But with Christine Laidlow acting like a tigress, they couldn't make the next move, they could only laugh dryly and stay still.
And Qin Tao, who saw their embarrassment, finally spoke with some helplessness: "Mr. David Stern, Mr. Adam Silver, I am a little inconvenient now. If there is something, why don't we talk another day? "
The sudden steps made David Stern and the others subconsciously breathe a sigh of relief.
They nodded to Qin Tao one after another, and the thought of suppressing it also faded away.
but.
Given that the current situation is somewhat chaotic, they must let Qin Tao speak out, otherwise they don't know where it will eventually evolve.
He hesitated.
David Stern was like the white-bearded old man at Christmas, with an amiable smile on his face. He first expressed his apologies to Christine Laidlow, and then said to Qin Tao: "Son, I On behalf of the NBA Board of Directors, I want you to express my deep apologies, we will definitely take this matter seriously, and will definitely give you a satisfactory answer."
Laidlow finally felt much more comfortable hearing the words of self-denial, but she, who had not dealt with them once or twice, heard some hidden meanings.
Turn your head.
Ledlow looked at Qin Tao, waiting for his intention.
Sometimes, as a "family member", she can give Qin Tao strong help, but when it comes to some major events, she respects Qin Tao's personal wishes very much. After all, this time the matter is a bit too big.
And Qin Tao, who understood her meaning very well, thought about it carefully, and said to her with a smile: "Honey, why don't you go out and chat with Mr. Adam Silver first, I think they will be very interesting."
David Stern instantly admired Qin Tao's actions, which made him feel respected.
Laidlow frowned slightly, but after thinking for a while, he made a gesture of invitation to Xiao Hua and the others.
As they left one after another, the ward was completely left to Qin Tao and David Stern.
And the big president didn't talk about what he wanted Qin Tao to do for the first time, but assured him again that he would handle this matter properly.
After listening.
Qin Tao didn't choose to speak. He really couldn't guarantee that his words and deeds would not bring him any trouble.
To know.
This man looks kind-hearted and kind-hearted, and when he is doing things seriously, he really has the shadow of a dictator.
Seeing that Qin Tao didn't speak, David Stern suddenly became serious: "Son, although it is not appropriate to discuss some things now, but because the current situation is indeed very serious, we have to make some suggestions to you."
Not bad!
Qin Tao secretly gave Stern a thumbs up.
The suggestion he said, rather than the request, sounds very comfortable, and it can also be understood that Stern puts him on the same level as himself.
The feeling of being respected is very good, not to mention the respect given by Stern, which has a different meaning, at least he represents the attitude of the entire NBA.
"Please tell me." Qin Tao nodded sharply.
Stern secretly heaved a sigh of relief, put aside the initial suppression, organized his language separately, and said: "In view of the fact that this conflict has expanded its impact to all levels, and considering the image of the entire NBA, we ask you to support the league. You can continue to operate normally and make some positive statements in terms of speech."
talking and talking.
Stern's words were obviously a little guilty. After all, Qin Tao's hammering of Barnes was not considered. The latter was indeed not playing, but was aiming at killing people.
And Qin Tao had thought about this issue before.
Not to mention how miserable his experience is, but as an NBA player, he must maintain the image of the league.
There is no other idea, if this matter is allowed to ferment, I am afraid that the final result will be very likely to force the season to be suspended due to rectification.
Looking at it now, all public opinion is directed towards Qin Tao, but if you think about it further, once the league is really forced to stop, his actions will affect all players in the entire league.
To know.
Once the season is suspended and the players have to take a vacation, the team owners will definitely not pay the rest of their wages due to the peeing nature of those team owners.
also.
As the current season has only been going on for about two months, just the huge loss of the remaining salary will definitely make every player turn their heads and hate Qin Tao to death.
By the time.
As long as someone with a heart pushes the flames, and David Stern and his gang play tricks in the middle, I am afraid that the final result will only be unacceptable to Qin Tao.
After all, a player who is isolated from the entire league will never be favored by any team.
So if it really comes to this point, Qin Tao's ultimate goal will immediately come to naught, not to mention accomplishing his medium and long-term goals, and it will never be possible to achieve it.
As for David Stern, who looked like a human being, a strong smile appeared in his eyes after seeing the expression on Qin Tao's face.
According to his original intention, he came here to put pressure on Qin Tao and let him understand the pros and cons.
But through the short communication before, and the art of speaking that is integrated into his bone marrow, he got unexpected results.
but.
As an extremely shrewd businessman and a perennial high-ranking CEO, Stern is well aware of the importance of opportunities.
So he waited until Qin Tao's expression gradually stabilized, and said in a gentle tone: "You are one of the strongest rookies I have seen in decades, and you are also the strongest international player since the 21st century. In one season, you can get amazing results in the All-Star voting, and this is the best proof for you."
The sudden high hat made Qin Tao somewhat arrogant.
But after suffering some similar small losses, Qin Tao became more cautious: "Thank you."
Finding that the child did not make an exaggerated expression, Stern was a little surprised again, and then smiled and pretended to say unintentionally: "After the understanding of the attending physician, I think you will definitely recover before the All-Stars. And , in view of the recent development direction of the alliance, we will focus on making some adjustments to the Asian region and increase the promotion of this magical continent."
Qin Tao's eyes lit up instantly, and Stern's obvious hint made him completely unable to refuse the olive branch thrown at him.
What does promotion in Asia mean? ?
Apart from Japan and South Korea, which have a slightly larger market, I am afraid that the biggest target is the Chinese market.
And as a pure Chinese, what was Stern's intention in telling Qin Tao about this?
I'm afraid if it's another person, I'll know what it means with my ass.
