Chapter 309: Creating an Investment Bank?

Hubie Brown concluded after the game: "The Dragons' overall shooting rate is 61.2%, which is lower than the normal level, but with free throws, the efficiency is still strong, and the true shooting rate reaches 68%. This is also the guarantee for the Knicks to win the Bulls .

The Bulls played well today, and the stalemate lasted until the end, but they still fell to Feilong's lethality on the inside.

Judging from this game, the Knicks are still based on using the flying dragon to attack the Bulls' inside line. This is the same as last season's Eastern Conference Finals, by defeating the Bulls' inside line without breaking the Bulls. If the Bulls don't fix this problem, I think this series will go down the same path again. "

After the game, Zhao Dong accepted an on-site interview.

"Feilong, what do you think of the Bulls' defense against you tonight?" Thomas, the team reporter, asked.

Zhao Dong said solemnly: "Their defensive awareness has changed somewhat. I mean outside defense."

When he said this, he thought back to the defensive double-teaming he encountered on the outside in this game. Jordan and McGrady played defensive cooperation. One posted and the other blocked. If he got rid of one, he couldn't get rid of the other. This kind of defense Awareness should come from preparation.

"What changes?" Thomas asked.

Zhao Dongdao: "They didn't try to guard me near the three-point line and gave me a certain amount of space to shoot. Of course, they didn't even try to guard me. I think their ultimate goal of defense was to force me there. Take action.

You also know that no matter how accurate I can shoot near the three-point line, the highest shooting rate is about 50%. This is why my efficiency was not high tonight. "

CCTV Yang Yi asked: "Feilong, in the low post offense in the second half, what trouble did Oakley and Rasheed Wallace cause to you tonight?"

Zhao Dongdao: "They didn't give me a second of comfortable shooting space. Their positive defensive attitude and fierce defense are the reasons why they were able to reduce my low-post efficiency."

"How are you going to deal with such a defense?" Yang Yi asked.

"I'll tell you next time." Zhao Dong smiled.

Yang Yi smiled and didn't ask any more questions.

"Feilong, you used 9 rebound attacks in the low post tonight. What does that mean?" a reporter asked.

"It shows that I need to improve my low-post offensive efficiency." Zhao Dong said.

Answered two more questions,

He ended the live interview.

Back in the locker room, Nelson and the coaching staff began to summarize the game.

Nelson said: "On the offensive end, we have encountered some changes. The Bulls' defense against the Dragons is better. We must make some changes to prevent this bad trend from being strengthened."

Xiao Fan nodded and said: "The Bulls have tasted the benefits and will definitely do better on the defensive end in the next game."

Old Nelson nodded and said: "So our offensive tactics must change, we cannot go all the way to the dark side, and our offensive tactics must continue to change.

In addition, the coaching staff needs to study the Bulls' defensive tactics against the Dragons, and we need to make targeted changes. "

Zhao Dong said: "When I was on the outside, their defensive strategy was to stick to the inside, not allowing our open players to rush in and attack, and to leave the middle area empty, but not allowing me to rush in.

My suggestion is that since they give up mid-zone defense, we can increase mid-range offense. When Fordson is on the court, our rebounding ability is not weaker than that of the Bulls.

At the same time, when I am double-teamed at the three-point line, I will add some wing tactics. The person who is left open can be close to the baseline of the same wing, so that my passing will be more convenient, forcing one of Jordan and McGrady to return to defense, and then Pass back or hit yourself. "

"Okay." Old Nelson said.

These tasks are all his, and he must come up with some suitable offensive tactics before the G2 game.

At this time, at the game site, some league stars were interviewed by the media.

"Ervin, what do you think of this game?" a reporter asked Magic Johnson.

"The Bulls' defense is more targeted. I'm talking about defending Feilong. If they can reduce some fouls, I think they have a chance to win this game. Of course, with Feilong's low-post offensive skills, the defender will not foul. And it’s hard to guard, so it’s a difficult problem,” Johnson said.

"Due to the double-teaming of Feilong in this game, the Knicks' defenders got a lot of opportunities, but their efficiency was not very good. Why is this?" the reporter asked.

Johnson said: “Because Jordan and McGrady double-teamed Feilong, they restricted Feilong’s passing. Feilong made two mistakes on the outside, both of which were passing errors, one of which was intercepted by Jordan.

When the quality of the pass is affected, the Bulls will quickly cover the Knicks to get the open perimeter, which is why their efficiency is not so high. Of course, it's not low, but overall it's not as efficient as Feilong's perimeter. They still lowered the efficiency of the Knicks' perimeter offense. "

"Do you think the Bulls can win this series?" the reporter asked.

"Judging from this game, as long as they do better, they will have a chance." Johnson said.

"Ervin, the Lakers and Spurs are about to play, will you be there?" the reporter asked.

"Of course, I have already booked a flight to San Antonio tomorrow, and I will be there to cheer for the Lakers." Johnson smiled.

After the game, the Bulls press conference.

"Michael, are you disappointed with the loss in the G1 game?" a New York Times reporter asked.

"No, I see hope in it."

"Tonight Feilong's offensive shooting percentage was only a little over 60%, which was ten points lower than his shooting percentage in the last Eastern Conference Finals. What changes do you think he will make in the next series?" Chicago the sports reporter asked.

Jordan thought for a moment and said, "We'll look at this carefully. It's a good question."

"Michael, if you are eliminated in the Eastern Conference Finals again, will you retire for the second time?" a reporter from New York Sports asked.

"Stop asking stupid questions like this. This time we will enter the finals." Jordan said unhappily.

"Michael, in this game, the Chinese king you traded scored 11 points and shot 54% from the field. What do you think of this?" a local reporter asked.

"54%? Not bad, but we don't lack insiders. What we need are insiders like Charles and Rashid, insiders with the most fierce defensive skills and style."

Jordan smiled and shook his head and said, "You can take a look at our rookie Mobley. What is his shooting percentage?"

He looked at the staff member of the team next to him. The man immediately looked at the information in his hand and replied: "5 of 11 shots, 1 of 4 three-pointers, 2 of 3 free throws, a total of 13 points, a shooting percentage of 45.4 %."

"Did you hear that? Our rookie outside shooting percentage is less than ten points lower than that of a center, which shows that our transaction is successful."

Jordan said proudly.

"Michael, I noticed that in the outside battle, there was very little elbow movement between you and Feilong, almost none. Why?" a reporter asked.

Jordan was silent for a moment and said: "This is a tacit understanding. We play with skills, not elbows. Although I don't like him at this point, I admire him very much. When he plays against us outside players, even if we He was restrained, but he never actively used his elbows. You know..."

Having said this, he touched the band-aid on his brow and said with an ugly face: "There are some people who don't care who they are facing or who is guarding them. Even a small man of 1.6 meters and 60 kilograms can't care about them." It's possible that he might get elbowed by him. Yes, I'm talking about the postman Karl Malone. I hate him and I'm asking for the top 50 players to be re-elected again."

The next day, the 28th, the G1 battle day of the Western Conference Finals.

Zhao Dong slept until ten o'clock in the morning before getting up, and Lindsay stayed at home with him.

He finished the breakfast prepared by Lindsay, and the two of them drank tea and chatted.

"Husband, our funds are leaving the market as planned. We have cashed out 10 billion US dollars and are expected to complete the withdrawal plan by the end of the year. However, because we are bearish on the market outlook, some voices on Wall Street have recently questioned the investment prospects of Storm." Lindsay said.

Zhao Dong said: "The U.S. stock market is still climbing, and the general trend looks very good. It is indeed possible to continue to be bullish on the market outlook. Many investment institutions even advocate that the Nasdaq index will reach 6,000 points. Such voices are emerging. Not surprisingly."

Lindsay nodded, and she had her own judgment, because judging from the changes in market chips, some large institutions, such as Goldman Sachs and other top investment banks, had also recently sold off some chips, but the actions were not as big as the storm.

However, the size of the storm is too large, with a market value of hundreds of billions. If the withdrawal speed is too slow, I am afraid that once the market turns bearish, a large amount of profits will be swallowed up by the short side.

"By the way, Aiweier, what happened to your plan to cheat Adi's companies?" Zhao Dong suddenly asked.

Lindsay smiled and said: "I plan to arrange it when the market turns negative next year. Then we will double-check and detonate the situation. Companies like Adidas may not be able to withstand it.

Then we can use the name of Nike to seize the opportunity to buy at the lowest price and drag them to death. Anyway, we have a huge amount of funds in hand.

If they fall flat, then Nike will acquire them all and completely privatize and delist these companies. By then, the sporting goods market will be equally divided between Nike and Feilong Sports.

By the way, a few days ago I asked the people in charge of lobbying to start lobbying these companies to increase their investment in US stocks..."

"Pfft!" Zhao Dong laughed.

My wife is really trying to screw companies like Adidas, so grandpa is right, capitalists are vampires.

"Husband, when we start an industrial business in China, should the funds be placed in Julong Investment Company, or should we form another group company?"

"Of course they are formed separately. Dragon is a venture capital company and cannot be put together."

"Then Feilong Sports Company will be included in the newly formed group?"

"Well, yes, it's better to manage them all together."

“Are we going to bring in other funds?”

"It depends on the situation and the project. We mainly invest in high-tech, general projects can be introduced, and core projects use our own funds. If our own funds are not enough, Storm will be responsible for blood supply. In addition, we will set up Storm Investment Bank , I plan to choose Hong Kong as the headquarters, which is more convenient. The registration place is in the Cayman Islands."

Lindsay nodded and said: "Registering in Cayman is only a secondary way to avoid tax. The main thing is that you can avoid the foreign exchange controls of various countries, which is the most convenient for capital operations."

Zhao Dongdao: "It is still inconvenient to set up a headquarters in Hong Kong and operate in the mainland. However, domestic commercial banks will not be liberalized in the short term. However, since we have such a large amount of funds, we still need to communicate with the superiors and strive to operate domestically." Establish a commercial branch."

That afternoon, Zhao Dong called Dayao, Dazhi, and Hu Weidong over to his house for dinner, and then watched the G1 game between the Lakers and Spurs.

"Dayao, when are you going to try out with the Nets?" Zhao Dong asked.

"Brother Dong, we'll go after the Eastern Conference." Dayao replied.

"It's not far, just over two hours' drive, only 200 kilometers. The Nets used to be in New York City, but later moved to New Jersey." Zhao Dongdao.

"Oh, the Nets used to be in New York City?" Several people said in surprise.

Zhao Dong smiled and said: "The Nets originally belonged to the ABA League. This league wanted the Nets to settle in New York and compete with the NBA, but in the end the Nets settled in New Jersey.

However, the Nets moved to New York in 1969, and their home games were at Cormack Arena and Island Garden Arena on Long Island. I played in both arenas on Long Island, so I know this experience. Later in 1976, the team joined the NBA and moved back to New Jersey. "

After chatting for a while, Zhao Dong and Lindsay cooked dinner themselves.

Hu Weidong and the other three were embarrassed. Zhao Dong was reluctant to cook for them. They were used to getting along with each other, but Lindsay, the giant of Wall Street, couldn't stand it when he cooked for them and became a little restless.

At six o'clock, a table of dishes was ready, including steamed fish, plain-cut chicken, etc.

"They are all professional players. We don't have any pork dishes or stir-fry dishes. We made a few boiled dishes, but there are no heavy-flavored dishes. The brothers can barely eat a meal."

Zhao Dong invited several people to sit down and start eating.

Lindsay had a few more boxes of caviar brought over.

Zhao Dong smiled and said: "I will eat a mix of Chinese and Western food today to give you protein."

Hu Weidong picked up a box. The outside of the iron box was golden, with the brand name "aimas" on it. The appearance was very exquisite and it felt expensive. He asked curiously: "Zhao Dong, how much does this thing cost?"

Zhao Dong smiled and said: "32 ounces, one box is almost one kilogram, more than 20,000 US dollars."

"Oh My God!"

Hu Weidong and others said in surprise.

Zhao Dong explained: "This is albino catfish caviar. It is of the highest quality in the world. It tastes very good and is very nutritious. You should try it."

"Isn't it gold painted outside?" Da Zhi asked curiously.

"It's just a layer of gold foil, not worth much. One gram of gold can be crushed into almost half a square of gold foil. It's just a gimmick." Zhao Dong laughed.

A few people had dinner, chatted over tea, and waited for the start of the Western Conference Finals.

Lindsay asked someone to arrange some melon seeds, chicken feet and the like for Zhao Dong and others to pass the time.

Half an hour later, the Western Conference Finals began.

At the beginning of the Lakers' attack, O'Neal failed to get to the basket. He took the ball in the low post, turned and missed the hook, and General Robinson grabbed the rebound.

The Spurs came to the offensive end. Duncan leaned on O'Neal and suddenly made a counterattack pass. Robinson, who entered the basket, received the ball and layup, easily hitting a goal.

Zhao Dongdao: "This is the Spurs twin towers. Their low-post cooperation is very good. O'Neal can't do it alone. If the Lakers can't help from the outside, I am optimistic about the Spurs in this series."

Hu Weidong said: "One of the Spurs' twin towers is a super center and the other is a superstar. They can attract double teams. The Lakers are really difficult to guard. If they guard against one, they will miss that."

Zhao Dongdao: "And if the Lakers power forward is not good, they will be beaten on both offense and defense."

DaZhi asked at this time: "Brother Dong, how will we beat the Spurs if we meet the Spurs in the finals?"

Zhao Dongdao: "On the offensive end, the inside line must be pulled out. Ben and Danny Fortson can only play one, otherwise the Spurs' twin towers will be blocked in the paint area, and our low-post offense will not need to be played.

On the defensive end, he will be more passive. Robinson's strength is still there, and Duncan is known as the flying devil. Whether he is sitting down or attacking on the move, he is a full threat.

We should defend one to death and cut off the connection between the Spurs' twin towers, so that we can have a chance to beat them. "

In this G1 game of the Western Conference Finals, the Spurs relied on the absolute strength of the twin towers to defeat the Lakers and win the G1 game.

The Spurs twin towers jointly contributed 57 points, 27 rebounds and 7 blocks.

Duncan scored 33 points, 16 rebounds and 4 blocks in a single game. His overall shooting rate was as high as 56%, his shooting rate in the low post was as high as 63%, his shooting rate at the basket was as high as 72%, and his shooting rate near the basket was as high as 51%. He can be called a low post shooting machine. At the same time, he also performed top-notch on the defensive end.

After watching the game, Zhao Dong felt the threat from Duncan and said seriously: "Duncan's efficiency in this game is already close to mine. His offensive skills in the low post have reached a super-class level."

"Too strong!" Dayao and the other three exclaimed.

Zhao Dong said to Dayao: "Your current strength has reached the level of a first-class center in the league, but your low-post skills have not yet reached a truly first-class level. Your height gives you a certain strength bonus.

Your current low-post skills are worse than when Duncan entered the league the year before last. Of course, you are several years older than him, so a slight difference is inevitable.

Therefore, in your rookie season, in addition to continuing strength training, you must continue training in basic skills and low-post skills, and strive to catch up with him within two seasons. "

"I know, I will practice well, Brother Dong." Dayao said quickly.

Zhao Dong added: "You have to strive to hone your low-post skills to a truly first-class level in your rookie season. Of course, your mid-range shot must be better than his. His shooting touch is far inferior to yours, let alone long-range shooting." Having said that, he has almost none. I want you to try to catch up with him for two seasons, just because he has his talent, but you also have your talent, and your shooting touch is incomparable to him. For example, your turnaround and fadeaway jumper , no matter how much time Duncan is given, he may not be able to practice it.

But as a center, the closer you are to the basket, the better. You must strengthen your training in low-post offensive skills and increase your proportion of offense under the basket.

The offense under the basket is not the dominance of the basket like the Sharks. The pace is the most important. Don't waste this offseason. You and Da Zhi study hard next to Da Meng. He will arrive in New York tomorrow. "

"Understood, Brother Dong."

Dayao and Dazhi nodded heavily.
