Chapter 64 KFC's Olive Branch

Chapter 64 Olive Branch of KFC
The efficiency of the Basketball Association is very fast, and they quickly finalized Li Shihao's problem.

Since some problems of the Basketball Association were gradually exposed, they have also carried out internal rectification, and they are no longer as tough as before when it comes to dealing with Li Shihao.

First of all, Li Shihao was not trained in a domestic sports school. His basketball skills and height in junior high school are the kind of thin and small man who will disappear in the crowd.It does not meet the standards for domestic basketball talent selection.

Second, Yao Ming was reimbursed for the season due to injury this year. Maybe the fans are not clear, but the officials of the Basketball Association have received the little giant's detailed medical examination report, and the injury is not optimistic.

The injury this time has a great impact, and it is very likely to endanger Yao Ming's career. Whether he can continue to play after the injury is a problem.

The executives of the Basketball Association saw Yao Ming lying on the hospital bed with red eyes. The little giant has really paid too much for Chinese basketball. People are full of flesh, and they all understand the efforts of the little giant.

For the glory of the country, he gave up the rest of the summer and let his already overwhelmed feet move awkwardly again. It can be said that Yao Ming's difficult career is partially due to this.

There is only one message from Yao Ming to the Basketball Association: if Chinese basketball wants to maintain its current performance, it needs to drop talents. Li Shihao is very young and very strong. Chinese basketball needs his contribution!

This reply made it very clear that Chinese basketball wants to maintain its current results!

The executives of the Basketball Association understood that what Yao Ming said was no less than looking for a successor.It can be said that Yao Ming has a lot of credit for Chinese basketball to maintain its dominance in Asia. If the little giant retires due to injury, then Chinese basketball will lose in Busan. It's a purge.

This is what prompted the Basketball Association to make such a quick decision. Li Shihao played very well in the NBA, and Chinese basketball may become stronger after joining this young man.

Everyone knows the importance of a good point guard!China has no shortage of insiders, but what it lacks is a good defender!

In this way, the news of the Basketball Association was passed to Houston on the other side of the ocean. They hoped to reach a cooperation agreement with Li Shihao through Yao Ming.

However, Li Shihao didn't know this. He was sitting in a coffee shop in Minnesota at the moment, receiving an important guest from New York, because this guest was carrying the sincerity of the global fast food giant.

The smoke is lingering, and the tip of the nose seems to be fascinated by the strong aroma.

Although Minnesota is remote, this cafe is extremely authentic. The Blue Mountain coffee sold here is ground from real Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee beans. The materials and craftsmanship are excellent, and it is very popular in Minnesota.

Li Shihao took a small sip, and the rich aroma accompanied by the four tastes of sour, sweet, bitter, and mellow slowly flowed through his mouth. The aroma, mellow, and smooth taste, even he, who doesn't drink coffee often, can faintly taste it Get the beauty out of it.

The guest who came was Luo Yifei, a Chinese-American, and one of the heads of KFC in the Asia-Pacific region. He had strong personal ability and had a very important voice in the company. He was a very important figure.

"Mr. Li, I have been famous for you for a long time. If you don't dislike me, let me call you Haozi!" Luo Yifei said with a smile, his words were intimate and familiar, and there was nothing unfamiliar at all.

Li Shihao smiled and said: "It should be my honor. Mr. Luo is the person in charge of your company in the Asia-Pacific region. Many outstanding business activities are from your hands. You must know that I also participated in your company's organization at the beginning." In the national three-person basketball game, it was just that my strength was not good at that time and I was eliminated miserably."

Luo Yifei's eyes lit up, and he said in surprise, "You participated in the three-person basketball game we held back then? Oh yes, you studied in China before high school, so you met the entry requirements back then. Don't call me Mr. Luo anymore. , don’t mind calling me Brother Luo!”

Li Shihao nodded and did not refuse. The other party was a high-achieving student who graduated from Harvard. He won a Harvard scholarship by virtue of his own ability in his sophomore year, but he was the number one student on the Harvard campus at that time.

Later, Luo Yifei gave up his high-paying position on Wall Street in New York and joined KFC, a global fast food giant, and became the person in charge of the Asia-Pacific region with a great voice, planning many classic business battles.

Being able to get acquainted with such a talented person is also very beneficial to him!

Luo Yifei did not rush to explain why he came, but instead sighed: "Haozi, you don't know, I am a loyal New York Knicks fan. When you became famous at Syracuse University, I was still guessing whether you would be accepted by the New York Knicks." The Knicks selected it! It's a pity that the Timberwolves drafted you away!"

Li Shihao smiled slightly and didn't say anything. Although New York is a big city with great influence and exposure, the Timberwolves treat him well. The core of the team, although Li Shihao didn't say anything about this treatment, he was still very moved in his heart.

Although Minnesota is remote and cold, its economic strength is not bad. There are several Fortune [-] companies here, which is much better than Cleveland where the little emperor James stayed.

The fans here are enthusiastic, and he doesn't feel the cold at all while playing here. This is the last reason why he doesn't want to leave!

He politely declined Luo Yifei's kindness, and Luo Yifei didn't force it. He laughed and started talking about the contract.

KFC is very generous, with a three-year contract of 3 US dollars. This fast food giant, which is on par with McDonald's globally, is difficult to compete with McDonald's, which has a deep foundation in the North American market, but KFC still has a say in Asia.

And China is KFC's most important market in Asia, so it is very important to find a suitable spokesperson!
After the contract issue was settled, Li Shihao flew to Salt Lake City with the Timberwolves' flight to play an away game against the Utah Jazz, or the famous Devil in the league. Sloan ushered in a renaissance under coaching, and once again ranked among the best teams in the Western Conference.

At the beginning, when the Timberwolves walked out of the player tunnel, there were overwhelming boos from the audience. The entire Timberwolves team understood that it was just an extremely anxious game, and the Utahs would not let them win easily!

From the very beginning of the game, the leader of the Jazz, Deron, cast his provocative gaze on the Timberwolves' bench, and firmly locked on Li Shihao, who was surrounded by everyone, sharp and awe-inspiring!
