Chapter 210: The Opportunity Belonging to Chen Feng
Falke's sense of business is definitely a very strange existence. This old guy was able to pick the leader of the Joe gang besides Magician and Larry Bird. You can imagine how vicious his vision was.
You know, the leader of the Joe Gang did not wear a ring on his hand at that time. He was just a fool who had just emerged from the University of North Carolina, but Falke saw great commercial value from that guy.
Moreover, if he can join forces with Nike to create such a great god for NBA, he probably won’t do anything in his life. With such a great achievement, he can be considered as being able to walk around the league.
Even if Bill Duffy and Fagan are crazy about catching those hope stars and big names, for David Falke, those guys are just trying to replicate his past glory.
However, even if you can sign the little emperor James, it is impossible to erase the presence of the leader Qiao. No matter how you count it, that guy is the first person in history who has never been there before.
Businessmen are accustomed to speculation, and they always discover some potential stocks that can be used, just like Chen Wansan invests in Lao Zhu, Lao Song's family is a family and two mothers, and Falke is now targeting Chen Feng.
Falke is not a divine creation assembly line, and the little bit of trouble between him and Stein also destined that he could not create any huge waves as casually as before.
Now the team bosses and leagues are able to suppress those big-name agents, probably because they are afraid that they will manipulate player transfers and make the entire NBA transactions chaotic.
People like Bill Duffy and Fagan are the culprits for the NBA team managers' strict precautions. As for players like Falke, they probably need to be strictly guarded to prevent him from instigating his own players.
You know, when Falke signed the agency contract with Chen Feng, Anji was so sad, because even Anji knew very well that if he competed with Falke, he would definitely lose more than he won.
Although it is not his peak period, for Falke, no matter how you run a contract like Chen Feng, you can hold it in your hands.
The old guy's ability is there, otherwise Fagan would not have let go of Chen Feng's ownership because of his intervention. Falk, the big crocodile, is still very deterrent.
Moreover, Falk can maintain his usual keen sense of smell. Although Chen Feng was introduced by his old friend Takanian, a person like Falk is naturally concerned about the potential value of the wild boy.
If Chen Feng was not the kind of player who could make him excited, even if he had Takanian's face, Falk would at most help with the contract, and he would not worry about the rest of the matter.
This is the choice of a businessman. He only values value, and Chen Feng's potential is naturally infinitely magnified in Falke's eyes. What he can see is far more than Takanian and others.
This old guy had already planned to retire, but when he saw such a livestock that made him moved, he naturally planned to make a good fight before he met God.
Falk couldn't guarantee that he could create another super god like Master Qiao, but with the fierceness of that kid Chen Feng, he naturally wouldn't think that this kid could only be an ordinary basketball star.
At least in terms of commercial value, if Chen Feng can make his way, his value will definitely not be inferior to James.
Falke never doubted that he would not slap himself in the mouth. He could estimate it by looking at the commercial value he knew. That kid's potential still needs to be discovered.
That's why he threw away Nike and chose to cooperate with Adidas. What he wanted was that uniqueness. Although Adidas also has people like Howard and McGrady, Falk was confident that the kid could set up his signature in Adidas. Maybe it won't take too long to realize his ideas, and now it's just a start.
And Falke now feels that it was not only the other party's luck, but also his own. Just a few hours ago, the news he received would definitely allow this old guy to find value for his use.
Just before Christmas Eve arrived, the Rockets, who were at home, lost to the Clippers who came to make trouble. The score was very close, 93:98, but Falke was not concerned about the mood of Houstonians.
As for whether Van Gundy will continue to ravage his small amount of hair after losing this game, Falke wouldn't care. He saw something from another level.
What he values is another thing that happened during the game. Less than six minutes into the first quarter, Yao Ming blocked the shot at the defensive end, and Tim Thomas of the Clippers fell, and he directly tricked the little giants.
The shoulder hit the knee was just a coincidence, but it hurt her. Houston announced to the public a few hours ago that her right tibia would have to be on standby for at least six weeks.
Of course, this is all news released by Houston. According to the information dug out by the media, it is estimated that the truce period may be a little longer. After all, yao will be injured this year.
It may be a blessing in disguise that you don’t have to undergo surgery, but no matter what, it is certain that yao is on the verge of the injury. As for how long you need to rest, it is probably only the Rockets’ beastly doctors who can know it.
Well, if you fall into the hands of those Mongolian doctors, you will probably be useless even if you have nothing to do with it.
The Rockets' team doctor is definitely a strange existence that is comparable to the Trail Blazers' team doctor, all of which are big killers!
What Falke needs is this kind of news. It’s not that the old guy is gloating, but that he can smell opportunities from this kind of news, an opportunity that can make that kid become popular faster.
Chen Feng wants to become Adidas' signature, and it is definitely an opportunity to be the first. The explosive performance of the rookie season is one of them. The conflict with O'Neal is also a catalyst, but none of these are enough.
The kind of opportunity that Falke needs is an occasion where Chen Feng's ability can be shown to more people, and the All-Star feast that kicks off in Las Vegas two months later is naturally the best choice.
Maybe not everyone will care about the NBA's regular season, at least they won't stay in Boston every day to wait for the Celtics to play, especially those who are not local American fans.
But the NBA All-Star Game is a very famous event on this planet. Even fans who don’t watch the regular season will join in the fun to watch this super show created by basketball stars.
Falke knew very well what benefits would bring to attend such an event, so he didn't want to miss this opportunity.
However, before that, there were 60 people in the east and west respectively. Boston has Pierce and Rondo, and Chen Feng is on the list, but the two novices behind will not receive special attention.
After all, it is not enough for the All-Star vote to support you in your city. Although Chen Feng and Rondo are well-known in Boston, they are at most rising stars in the United States.
Compared with big names like Kobe, James, O'Neal, or Nash, they have to stand aside.
As for votes, they naturally have nothing to do with them. Although some people vote for them, it is probably not that easy to enter the last 24-person list.
The possibility of Chen Feng and Rondo participating in the All-Star Game is almost zero, and they have tasks for first-grade and second-grade games, so Falke didn't think so much at the beginning.
It's enough to show off your appearance in the rookie competition and be familiar with each other. This is Falke's plan.
So since the voting started in mid-November, this old guy didn't create any momentum for Chen Feng, and there was no need to work hard. The old guy didn't want to put in more effort.
However, yao Ming was suddenly injured, which made Falk become energetic. He smelled the value that could be discovered from it. Perhaps it was not impossible to let that kid participate in the main competition.
There are less than twenty days left before the online voting, and there are only two and a half months left before the All-Star Game. Although yao Ming's injury is said to the public, he needs to rest for six weeks, who can guarantee that he will participate in the All-Star Game?
Even if he can recover, he will be able to recover from his injuries after six or seven weeks of quit. Will Van Gundy let him take the risk of participating in the All-Star? At least if Falk is a coach, he will not take such risks.
The Rockets have a partner with McGrady and Yaoming in order to make the playoffs. McGrady is already injured. Now Yaoming is lying down again, and Van Gundy probably won't take any risks again.
Even if these two guys are healed, he will keep these two guys in a siege like protecting the giant pandas, otherwise the Rockets' playoffs will be in lingering.
Falke is going to take advantage of this opportunity now, and he doesn't expect to let Chen Feng be the vote king like yaoming.
What he needs is attention, part of the attention from China. Although that kid is already a little famous in China, this is not enough. What Falke needs is more attention.
At the moment when Yao Ming was injured, another Chinese who might appear in the All-Star Game, had such a gimmick enough to attract a large number of overseas votes.
In addition to overseas, Chinese in the United States are also another potential energy. What Falke needs now is to boost the fire, until he wins the place in the main competition.
Moreover, the only power forwards in the East who can compete for positions with Chen Feng are Bosh and O'Neal Jr. Although these two guys seem to have a lot of votes now, for Falke, those are all over the world!
Thinking about how many people the ticket king killed in the first place, even big names like O'Neal, who were powerful, could not stand it, let alone Bosh, who was killed by Chen Fenglun.
Falke really wanted to tell the competitors, "If you plan to compare the number of people behind the boy's support, you will definitely die miserably. How many people are there in China? This base is definitely a complete victory!"
In the eyes of this experienced businessman, this is an opportunity that belongs to Chen Feng. He even has the confidence to help Chen Feng use this All-Star event to make more attention to this wild boy.
In Falke's view, Chen Feng's commercial value is just a gold mine, and now he is just digging the first shovel.
