Chapter 32 Peter's Proposal

Chapter 32 Peter's Proposal
When Peter sent this op-ed to the New York Times company, Jill Aibo Song, the executive editor of the New York Times, began to frown at this basketball commentary.

As a woman, she is undoubtedly very capable to become an executive editor in such an authoritative media as the New York Times.She has always been a harsh and rough image of the devil in the eyes of some small reporters in the New York Times.

The strong and brutal iron power system has made her an unshakable position in the New York Times, but now she feels a little bit burnt out by this basketball commentary.

The NBA is a big cake, and there are many topical things happening every day, and media people are born to discover these things!

With the gradual development of the NBA, its influence began to spread all over the world. Naturally, under such circumstances, there are many star news worth discovering in the league. The No. 24 in Los Angeles, the No. 23 in the small town of Cleveland, and the No. CP3, etc., there are many such superstars!
What she didn't understand was why Peter would choose a rookie who just entered the league this year as the subject of comment.

If this was written by another columnist, she would naturally give full play to her ironism and let that blind commentator go on the floor. The New York Times is not a small media. Vision columnists are paid a monthly salary.

However, what troubled her was that the columnist was none other than her friend Peter for many years, who had worked with her in the Wall Street Journal until now. In her current position, very few people would have sincere friendship with her. Now that she is a friend, she naturally attaches great importance to this friendship with Peter.

Jill folded her arms across her chest and leaned back in the seat, pressing her cold fingers to her temples, a nagging question indeed.

After thinking about it for a while, she took out her mobile phone and called Peter.

As soon as the phone was connected, Peter's steady voice came from the other end:

"Jill, I understand why you are here, you should trust my professionalism!"

Jill was a little silent when she heard this. She knew her friend. For many years, she started as a small reporter and worked hard. She has always adhered to the principles of a media person and will not shake her heart because of anything persist in.

"Peter, are you really optimistic about this rookie?"

Jill let out a heavy breath on the other end of the phone, he was a little helpless, and sighed:

"Gill, you don't understand. I have followed that Chinese rookie for three years. He is a player who came out of New York. As a basketball media person, I should pay rational attention to him. Because of New York's relationship, I will pay more attention to him. Because of the New York relationship, I will have stricter standards for him, and to my surprise, he has more potential than I imagined, and he will become a more valuable star than Yao Ming!"

When Jill heard this, her heart trembled. Rao, the cold heart she had cultivated for many years was also shaken. Yao Ming's value?
Many people in China know Yao Ming, and many people in the United States know about this little giant from the East, but only the professional basketball media can understand what a huge hidden behind this shy little Oriental giant with a body of [-] meters. Market potential!

Nowitzki can be said to be the best among foreign players. The core of the Mavericks team for many years is definitely more famous in the league than Yao Ming. This former MVP winner, his popularity ranks first in the European basketball circle. Not high enough.

However, the huge amount of data under the daily data report of the New York Times is showing the popularity of the little giant.

Not to mention the number of compatriots in China with a population of 13 billion, the whole of Asia can be said to be the gathering place for Yao Ming's fans.

As a rare yellow-skinned Asian population in the league, Yao Ming has basically played at the All-Star level of 20+10 every year. The strength of the league's first-line center makes his popularity in Asia remain high.

You know, the number one ball game in Europe is football, and among Asian fans, it is not certain who is higher than basketball or football!

This is why David Stern, president of the NBA, has always wanted to develop the Chinese market!

Looking at Yao Ming's annual endorsement contract, one can understand the amazing value of wealth hidden behind this shy little giant!
Jill sighed and compromised: "Well, Peter, I have always believed in your vision. If he can reach the height of Yao Ming as you said, I'm afraid the league will go crazy again!"

Hearing this, Peter suddenly panted heavily and was silent for a few seconds. He said in a trembling voice, "Jill, do you think he will use basketball to lead the world trend like Jordan?"

As soon as these words came out, the other end of the phone fell into a dead silence, only Peter's heavy breathing could be heard clearly.

This prediction can be said to be very bold and crazy!
Look at Jordan's influence, his sneaker sales are still several times that of Kobe and James!His influence has not diminished even after he retired!

Jill looked a little dazed, she hung up the phone, and began to weigh the feasibility of this idea in her heart!
If that Chinese rookie can reach the level of Kobe and James, then his influence may be comparable to that of Jordan, but is his future really bright?

Jill frowned and pondered for a while, then called an assistant. She needs to pay all-round attention to this rookie. Perhaps, this is not an impossible conjecture!
It's time for a battle between the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and USA Today!

When a comment about Li Shihao appeared in an obscure column in the New York Times the next day, more than half of the entire population covered by the New York Times saw the news.

Bruce Lee, a Chinese rookie, or a player who went out of New York State University, is doing well in the Timberwolves now?
Looking at the performance of the Timberwolves since the new season of the league, this has made many fans in New York City a little high. The ninth record in the Western Conference seems to be able to make it to the playoffs. It can achieve this result in the highly competitive Western Conference. ,sure!
Li Shihao, who is far away in Minnesota, didn't know about a comment from the eastern metropolis of New York. He didn't know that the city of New York was slowly gaining a group of fans who were optimistic about his future.

These are all because of the popularity that Peter has accumulated in the professional and rational comments of basketball media people for many years!
The Wall Street Journal and USA Today, the old rivals of the New York Daily, are looking at the "clown" farce of the New York Daily with a scrutiny.

Chinese rookie?Potential superstar?There are not many such topical rookies in the league, but very few can reach that position.

For giants such as the Wall Street Journal and USA Today, they are more willing to add icing on the cake than to dedicate their precious media opinions to a rookie player. They are uncrowned kings, and their noble heads will not be easily dumped!
