Chapter 809: The Deal Is Closed

Old Bass said again: "That's it. Don't always pocket all the bonuses you get, but put them in again.

For example, the Spurs have dozens of shareholders. It is only a small team, but it has won two championships in recent years, so it is not that a small team cannot become a strong team.

But now, the operating income of the league has increased greatly. Every team, including small teams, has received a large amount of income from the league. Why not invest part of it in lineup construction? "

Clippers owner Sterling shrugged and said nothing, he wouldn't take the money out of his pocket.

The same is true for the Rockets owner Alexander. It is impossible to ask him to pay the luxury tax.

"I think the salary cap can be raised appropriately." Heat boss Larryson said at this time.

"No, no, the labor agreement has just been signed for one year, so it is not appropriate to change it. Besides, why should they raise their wages?"

Clippers owner Sterling immediately objected, and he had to object to any idea that made him pay more.

At this time, Old Buss said: "What I want to know now is the attitude of the Suns and the Hammers towards this deal. Robert, can you talk about it?"

Savor said helplessly: "Of course we disagree, but Hammer said it doesn't matter."

"Haha..." Old Buss laughed twice, and said with a smile of admiration: "He really deserves to be as great as Jordan, and he is not afraid of stronger opponents at all."

"He's a lunatic! The Suns can't even make the playoffs in the new season." Quick boss Sterling complained.

"Do you dare to bet? I bet ten million dollars." Jordan said immediately.

Sterling turned away sullenly. He hated the color of Jordan.

Old Bass said at this time: "I don't know why the deal that the No. 1 player in active service doesn't object to can't be passed? Our current development comes from him. He hopes to have a stronger opponent. If not, what will be the result?"

After he said this, everyone fell silent.

Old Bass said again: "Maybe like Jordan, he retired because he had no opponent?"

Jordan shrugged, smoked his cigar with a smile, and said nothing.

"He must not be allowed to retire! I support this deal, pass it quickly." Clippers owner Sterling shouted immediately.

His team is in Los Angeles. Although it is overwhelmed by the Lakers, its market value has doubled and its revenue has skyrocketed since the Finals. How could he be willing to see Li Ba retire?

Stern looked around, and by now, he could basically make a decision.

After Li Ba got the news about the shares, he laughed loudly, and said to the girl: "Look, I don't know what they are making a fuss about, they are simply giving us money."

"Hee hee, big hammer, if you announce your comeback, the value of the shares will go up, right?" Liu Yifei laughed.

Gao Yuanyuan said on the side: "Of course, as long as it is announced, 20% of the shares will immediately become a market value of 500 million US dollars. And, embarrassing, you are the first owner of the yellow race in the NBA."

Li Ba nodded and said: "Jordan is the second black boss and the only black boss now, we have broken the unspoken rules of the league.

Therefore, strength is the most respected, and it is the same everywhere. "

"Yeah." The second daughter Gao Liu nodded repeatedly.

"By the way, Yuanyuan, how much have I bet?" Li Ba suddenly asked at this moment.

"Fifty million dollars, no more bets, the odds are as low as 1.1 to 1."

Gao Yuanyuan gave Li Ba a blank look. This guy has been betting badly for the past few days, forcing all the casinos to adjust their odds constantly. Now his odds are not profitable at all.

"How much can I get back if I win?" Li Ba asked.

"The average odds are 2.9 to 1. After deducting the principal and taxes, you can earn tens of millions of dollars." Gao Yuanyuan said.

"Not bad, plus the income from the boxing match, I will use this money to create the most luxurious wedding in the world." Li Ba looked at the girl and said with a smile.

The girl blushed and smiled.

To be honest, Gao Yuanyuan was jealous, very jealous.

How much does Li Ba earn from this boxing match?

From the box office analysis, PPV share income will not be less than 100 million U.S. dollars. After all parties share, Li Ba's after-tax income will be at least 20 million U.S. dollars, plus appearance fees, bonuses, sponsorship fees, who knows how much?

With so much money for a wedding, you can't run out of gold bricks and diamonds at home. How do you spend it?

Two days later, Savor kept his word and completed the transfer of the equity, which exceeded 20%, a total of 29%, all of which were given to Li Ba.

Of course, according to the agreement, Pat Riley and the others are only responsible for 20%, and Li Ba paid tens of millions of dollars for the other 9%.

This 29% stake almost wiped out all the shares except him.

That is to say, there are only two shareholders of the sun now, besides him, it is Li Ba.

Savor gritted his teeth and gave the other 9% to Li Ba. He really wanted to get it himself, because as soon as the news was announced, he would earn at least 200 million dollars in vain.

But after careful consideration, I still gave it to Li Ba.

Because this matter cannot be hidden in the end, once the news is announced, the original shareholders will definitely trouble him, and he dare not touch this part of the shares.

As for Li Ba, there is no problem, because his shareholding is the will of the entire alliance, the will of dozens of billionaires, and this is the world of capital.

And those few small shareholders can't do anything, they don't transfer, Li Ba doesn't come back, their shares are still worthless.

Fundamentally, they belong to the role of being eliminated.

Of course, according to the agreement, Pat Riley and the others are only responsible for 20%, and Li Ba paid tens of millions of dollars for the other 9%.

It just so happened that there were tens of millions left in his account.

Having got everything he wanted, Li Ba happily held another press conference to announce his return to the NBA.

People like Pat Riley used conspiracy to deal with him, and he used the conspiracy to gain benefits openly, it's as simple as that.

Of course, his shares are not exposed, not even the general managers of other teams. This is strictly kept secret by the league, so as not to cause unnecessary disputes.

After the news of the return was announced, the entire NBA league came alive.

Broadcasters such as TNT and ESPN announced that they will reopen negotiations on broadcast contracts with various teams.

Some of these contracts are only negotiated once a year, and popular teams like the Suns and Lakers will get big contracts for many years.

And the alliance's trading market has also opened up again.

However, all eyes are still focused on that super big deal.

"No matter how they hold together, I and our Suns can beat them! The only thigh they can hold is me."

Facing that super big deal, Li Ba said this to the media.

Stern returned to New York headquarters, went back behind his desk, opened a drawer, pulled out the transaction document, and signed his name on it.

Since Li Ba has no objection, this is what he wants to see, a few more teams that can compete with the Suns, maximize the interests of the league, and contribute to the NBA's ascension to the top of the four major professional sports leagues Bar.

On July 9, the transaction was declared successful.
