I'm really good at shooting.

……

A day later, the Mavericks traveled to Sacramento to play a game against the Kings.

Their winning streak was also ended here.

老尼尔森的昔日弟子克里斯·韦伯，轰下了30分13板6助攻3抢断3盖帽的华丽数据，把诺维茨基给爆了。

The Kings' Princeton style of play is very mature, completely different from the half-finished Barcelona team when Sun Hao was in Europe.

Counting, this is already the second time the Kings beat the Mavericks this season.

It also exposed many weaknesses of the Mavericks. Although they have an excellent record, their hard power is actually not that strong.

If they want to become a team capable of competing for the championship, they still have a lot to improve.

After the end of the game with the Kings, the Mavericks players are ready to return to Dallas.

But Sun Hao didn't go back with him, he took the plane to New York directly.

There are two ways for the NBA to receive the best rookie of the month, awarding it before the game, or going to the New York League office to get it by yourself.

The Mavericks have no Eastern Conference games recently, and the pre-match award is expected to be late, so Sun Hao simply flew over to get it by himself.

It just so happened that he could visit the New York Stock Exchange.

The unexpected gains from investing in Google before gave him confidence in investing.

Of course he doesn't know how to do business, but he went to see if there are any familiar stocks, and buy a lot of things, just treat it as leisure and entertainment.

……

The NBA is headquartered in Manhattan, New York.

To be precise, it is in the "Olympic Tower" building at 645 Fifth Avenue.

When Sun Hao went, he called in advance, and when he arrived at the door, a special staff member came to greet him, and he was an Asian named Tatum.

Stern is very particular about details in his work, and some clues can be seen from this.

Coming to get the trophy is not just a process of getting it, but a series of processes.

For example, wait for Stern to come, and then some reporters stationed at the NBA headquarters will come to take pictures, and there will even be some interviews after taking them.

This whole process is a bit like information gathering.

After all, those who can win the NBA Rookie of the Month are likely to become famous in the future.

At that time, his news was the media and fans, and it was also the stories in Eisley's mouth.

After finishing this series of procedures and leaving the NBA headquarters, Sun Hao had time to carefully look at the trophy.

The trophy is two special diamond shapes, one high and one low, one wide and one narrow, like two swords.

In the middle position is a shot shape when he shoots.

Below the shape is the words "Dallas Mavericks" November 2000.

Although Rookie of the Month is not a big honor, the NBA has put a lot of thought into it.

Putting the trophy in his schoolbag, Sun Hao then took a taxi to the New York Stock Exchange.

The exchange is located in the innermost part of Wall Street. Before going, Sun Hao went to Broadway next door to take a look at the "Bronze Bull Statue".

This iconic building, which represents the image of Wall Street, hadn't really been here, and I probably didn't know that it was on Broadway next door.

Speaking of which, after entering the NBA, Sun Hao found that he was really about to give up his hobby of traveling.

After entering the stock exchange along the narrow street that was extremely inconsistent with his impression, and listening to people shouting and trading inside, Sun Hao felt like he had entered the vegetable market by mistake.

He is a little uncomfortable.

This is somewhat inconsistent with the legendary place where many people get rich overnight and many people go bankrupt instantly.

He listened for a while, but didn't find anything familiar to him, so he finally gave up.

He discovered that he really wasn't all-knowing and all-powerful.

He turned around and was about to exit the place, but when he looked up, he saw a familiar person not far away.

Gu Yi.

This guy is squatting around a corner, looking around, like a hunter looking for prey.

Sun Hao looked away, and then he was about to leave the exchange.

But at this moment, Gu Yi who was still squatting in front suddenly jumped up, as if he finally found the prey he was waiting for, and walked towards Sun Hao quickly.

As soon as Sun Hao left the exchange, Gu Yi followed.

"Sun Hao, Sun Hao, it's me, Gu Yi."

Gu Yi couldn't see the outside world at all, and ran to Sun Hao's side.

"Which one?"

Although Sun Hao had a good impression of him, the two meetings were on such weird occasions, and he didn't want to get in touch with him too deeply.

"Gu Yi, that day at Richardson, the restaurant in Chinatown, a venture capitalist."

Gu Yi spoke concisely, and quickly covered the whole point.

"Oh, I have a little impression, what's the matter?"

"Have you considered what I told you that day? I can really help you build an unprecedented business empire."

Gu Yi looked at me as if I looked like the noble person you were destined to meet.

Sun Hao shook his head.

He knew that he was time-traveling, but he wouldn't be able to meet that kind of time when he went out for a meal.

This is not the same concept as Fu Paul and Cannon Baker before. Those people knew it because he knew it, but Gu Yi, he had never heard of it and could not have heard of it.

Beware of scams when you go out, this is what the police uncle told him the most on TV in his previous life.

"Give me half an hour, let's sit down and have a cup of coffee, you can listen to what I have to say first, if not, I will never bother you again."

Sun Hao glanced at him and said nothing.

"20 minutes."

"10 minutes! Just 10 minutes!"

Sun Hao didn't rush to agree, but asked a question first.

"Are you really a venture capitalist?"

Gu Yi was taken aback for a moment, he didn't seem to expect Sun Hao to ask this question suddenly.

Sun Hao was waiting for his answer.

"No, but I used to be, I didn't do it well, and now I'm a stockbroker."

As he spoke, Gu Yi took out his business card from his pocket.

This time he really took it out.

Sun Hao took a look, this identity, coupled with his image when squatting on the stock exchange, seemed real.

"You said, a liar, why should I believe what he said?"

Sun Hao returned the business card to Gu Yi and asked.

Gu Yi was taken aback for a moment.

"gone."

Sun Hao patted him on the shoulder, then turned around and prepared to leave.

"5 minutes, no need to drink coffee, just here, 5 minutes."

Gu Yi gritted his teeth and said.

Sun Hao turned around and motioned for him to say.

"Now you want to preemptively register a company with your name, and then immediately contact the endorser, looking for the kind of endorsement fee that is not very high but has a large user base, such as telecommunications, insurance, and short-term contracts. Then use those endorsement fees to acquire several small companies, raise funds to go public, and then find an industry you like to build your own brand, such as restaurant chains, retail stores, and even travel companies, etc.”

"You'd better change a team, such as Los Angeles or New York. If it doesn't work, you can also go to Chicago. You also know that there are not many Chinese in Dallas. It is difficult for you to get local endorsements. That's why there are so many players. The reason why I want to go to Los Angeles.”

……

In 5 minutes, Gu Yi didn't say much, and he didn't speak very fast.

It can be seen that although the time is tight, he is always talking about the key points.

"I know you may feel like you don't need this right now because you're going to have a lot of commercial contracts and maybe more in the future, but what I just said will allow you to seamlessly transition into the business model after you retire. , you can start enjoying life from the first second after retiring."

After he finished speaking, seeing that Sun Hao didn't respond, he then opened his mouth to add.

Sun Hao reached out and rubbed his nose.

To be honest, although what Gu Yi said sounds flawed in details, there is nothing wrong with the general direction.

There is a saying that opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. In order to tell him this, Gu Yi probably prepared a lot in private.

This is also what Sun Hao is worried about.

He didn't like the feeling of being watched.

"Last question, how did you know I would go to Richardson, that restaurant, I want to be honest."

Sun Hao looked directly at Gu Yi.

"I do not know."

"You do not know?"

"Everywhere I go, I will do research on people who have investment potential there, and then get to know them and write them down. Dallas Chinatown, the first Chinese to land in the NBA, you must be one of my goals, and I I waited there for a week, it was the last day before I left, so it was fate between us."

Fate is a ghost.

After Gu Yi finished speaking, Sun Hao suddenly laughed.

Although it still sounds unbelievable, it seemed that he really met a noble person when he was out for a meal.

"There's a café over on Broadway."

Sun Hao said.

Gu Yi's face burst into brilliance when he heard this sentence, but he still didn't show too excited, just nodded vigorously.

When they arrived at the coffee shop, Gu Yi talked to Sun Hao about more and more detailed things.

Indeed, he had something to say for half an hour.

For example, if he felt that Sun Hao couldn't change the team at once, he would make use of the limited Chinese resources in Dallas.

First set up a fan club to provide fans with weekend gatherings, and at the same time allow fans to promote, so that more people become Sun Hao's fans.

Fans are the basis of popularity. If Sun Hao wants to get more endorsements in Dallas, it has something to do with the Chinese market here, but it is not just about the Chinese.

Then, you can release some news about Sun Hao going shopping in Chinatown, attracting more fans to go there, and also attract more Chinese to go there, making Chinatown bigger.

Then, when you have a fan base and endorsement is a matter of course, you can consider starting a personal brand.

For example, Sun restaurant, Sun clothing, headbands of the same style as the little emperor and so on.

……

There are many suggestions for details like this, and he even mentioned financial management with Sun Hao.

He knew that Sun Hao had started playing professionally in Europe very early, and he would "definitely" lack in this respect.

Chapter 139 Austrian Girl

Sun Hao listened, nodding from time to time.

"How old are you?"

He finally looked at Gu Yi.

If it wasn't for the other party who would be so persistent in looking for him, Sun Hao would have the feeling that the other party is also the same as he timed through.

"25, but I have been exposed to this since I was 15. I have seen many stories about Wall Street. I have seen people walk out of the stock exchange and 'bang'. I have also seen people throwing dollars in the street. .”
