Chapter 1983 It’s All a Game

"If I had known this thing was so profitable, why would I open a mine!" Qian Liang glanced at the financial statements in his hand, and looked at the final total without looking at it carefully. He instantly felt that the wine in his hand, which cost more than 10,000 yuan a bottle, was not fragrant.

Qian Liang has been tossing around in recent years, and has traveled a lot at home and abroad. He is also a well-known person in the circle.

But he really didn't make any money in recent years, and he seemed to be in great glory. He has won two large mines with a scale of hundreds of billions, not to mention small mines with a scale of tens of billions.

But family members know their own business. He really didn't make any money in recent years. Although this lack of money is still an existence that ordinary people can't reach in their lifetime compared to ordinary people.

But in the circle, he is really not as rich as he looks on the surface. All the little things add up to make a hard-earned money, and he is still worried every day.

After careful calculation, all kinds of equity participation have been involved, and the result is not as much as the original agency fee. It can be said that he swallowed his teeth and swallowed his stomach, and still pretended to be strong on the surface.

The reason why he had to board Yang Dongxu's agricultural ship this time was that he felt that he was almost rootless. If he continued to float, he didn't know where he would rot. He quickly found a place to land in case of any emergency.

It didn't matter whether he made money or not. The main thing was to keep a stable and safe way out for himself. At the same time, he also continued his relationship with Yang Dongxu.

Otherwise, he would always be busy with various projects and not cooperate. Although they usually drink and chat when they get together, the relationship has become distant without knowing it.

For example, once he participated in this project, he didn't say how much the relationship was brought closer. At this time, he was drinking and chatting with Yu Feihong. You should know that in the past few years, except for the gatherings organized by Li Yihang, he and Yu Feihong had only met and drank together a few times in private.

And this time he suddenly became interested in live broadcasting. Recently, he saw a female anchor and gave her various rewards. He just told Yu Feihong, who was playing live broadcasting, that he wanted to see how live broadcasting was played.

Yu Feihong called him to come to Shanghai to get together. This is the difference between getting on the bus and not getting on the bus. In the past, Yu Feihong would have just told him briefly, and would never have asked him to come over for a drink and personally entertain him, even though the two were friends.

"You only made some money by shouting, but the team is the one that really makes money!" Yu Feihong said.

Qian Liang wanted to roll his eyes. This guy was too Versailles. The income of tens of millions in this quarter and hundreds of millions in a year was better than all his projects combined. After all, those projects were in cooperation with others, and the dividends shared were not much. As a result, such high income became a mere drop in the bucket in Yu Feihong's mouth.

"Running a team really makes money. If you don't believe me, look at the NBA. How much money can a profitable team make in a year." Yu Feihong noticed the change in Qian Liang's expression and said.

"Can playing games be compared with the NBA?"

"Why not? They are both games, right? Besides, how do you know that the NBA is not a game in the eyes of some people? For example, who!" Yu Feihong said with a smile.

Qian Liang's face paused. He knew who Yu Feihong was talking about. It was either someone else or Yang Dongxu.

I don't know when they started to have outsiders at their private gatherings. For example, when two people drink and each of them brings a woman to accompany them, when they mention Yang Dongxu, they always use "who" instead, which is an invisible respect.

Qian Liang knows that Yang Dongxu has an NBA team, and he even knows that Yang Dongxu is going to sell the NBA team recently.

The reason for the sale is not because he was targeted by the Morgan Consortium, but mainly because Yang Dongxu tried several times in China and failed to select a good seedling. Seeing that Yao Ming is about to retire, Yi Jianlian is currently unable to take on the responsibility of a team, and there is no successor, so Yang Dongxu feels boring.

So he played very well in the past two years. The draft of the team he is in charge of is famous for producing big fish. Even if it is not a big fish at the time, it will at least be a star-level player in the future.

Therefore, every year's draft, the major newspapers are not concerned about various gossip league rankings, but are staring at the 76ers. As long as the 76ers reveal even a hint of optimism about a new star in the draft. Then this new star is more popular than the popular candidate for the NBA No. 1 pick that year.

The scouts of the 76ers team are even praised as the best scouts of this century. Many people even spend a lot of money to buy the information collected by the 76ers scouts.

Yang Dongxu, who decided not to play, has been playing very hard in recent years. He has caught big fish that others have not seen potential in the draft. Then he throws them to his own team to start training.

Play well in one season and sell them at a high price in the next season. Or sell other stars in the team and take over.

He makes money on one hand and stabilizes the team's combat power on the other. Every season, he is the favorite to win the championship, can enter the playoffs and even play a role, and even win the championship in the end.

In short, he makes a lot of money by selling players on the one hand and continues to improve the team's combat power on the other hand. Who can you go to for justice?

So some people began to joke that the annual NBA draft is the 76ers boss's fortune-making meeting.

What makes other NBA team owners even more angry is that these rookies know that they will be sold after entering the 76ers team for a maximum of one season, and no more than two seasons at most.

Countless rookies particularly yearn to go to the 76ers, feeling that it is a holy land for rookies. Even if they are a piece of shit, when they arrive at the 76ers, they will be fed into the dog's mouth and play a certain role.

What makes NBA bosses jealous and crazy is that they need to spend a lot of money to sign top stars to get good results, and even exceed the salary cap to pay luxury tax for the team's good results.

But the salary cap of the 76ers has always been stable, and it can even be said that the 76ers pay players' salaries at a very low level every year.

After all, if you are a rookie who can't even make it into the top ten, or even a rookie who is eliminated and no one wants to pick you up to play, how high can your signing amount be?

In addition to a few stars such as Yao Ming, when the rookies have the confidence to ask for high salaries, they either leave or another star-level player in the team is sold.

Touching the salary cap to pay luxury tax?

Yang Dongxu tells you that it is impossible, even God will not pay it!

So the 76ers have made so much money in recent years that even laymen like Yu Feihong and Qian Liang know how famous they are.

This is just the outside world's guess of how much money they have made, which is so shocking. If Yang Dongxu reveals the real money he has made, these people will definitely be dumbfounded.

"NBA has been around for so many years, isn't it too early for e-sports to become a sports league like NBA?" Thinking back to Yang Dongxu's great achievements, Qian Liang shook his head to get rid of these thoughts and focused on the current topic.

He was afraid that he would feel too inferior if he recalled too many things, and after a few glasses of wine, he wanted to cry. He was tired like a dog every year and only turned a little bit, but someone just picked out two stars and made super double the money. The gap between people is too big!

"It's too early to make money, for example, those NBA teams, even the teams that don't make money at the end. How much is a shell team worth?" Yu Feihong said.

Qian Liang still felt that this matter was unreliable. After all, in his opinion, in the current domestic e-sports industry, what is the direct e-sports team quota? If you have money, can't you just set up a team? This quota is worth a dime!
