   While Jerry Buss was thinking, there was a knock on the door. Jerry Buss tidied his suit and shouted outside the door: "Please come in!"

Jerry Buss saw the office door. The first person who came in was a yellow-skinned young man. Jerry Buss was amazed. He didn't expect that the person who bought the team and the arena turned out to be a yellow man, but he had to stand. Get up to meet.

   "Mr. Bass, this is the purchaser of the team and the arena, Mr. Li Zhiwen." Curatos Blank did not introduce Li Zhiwen as the owner of Mars Capital, but simply introduced Li Zhiwen as the buyer.

   "Hello, Mr. Bath!" Li Zhiwen greeted him and stretched out his hands.

   "Hello, Mr. Li, take the liberty to ask, are you Chinese-American?" Jerry Buss asked.

   "Mr. Bath, I am from Hong Kong, China." Li Zhiwen said with a smile.

"Oh my god, this is incredible. How does a Chinese know how to run a team? You are dragging the Lakers into the abyss. I don't agree with this deal." Jerry Buss shouted after hearing Li Zhiwen's words. .

   Although Jerry Buss just bought the Lakers not long ago, he really wants to build the Lakers. Even if it is sold now, Jerry Buss also hopes to sell to people who know the ball.

Li Zhiwen was irritated by Jerry Buss’ words, his face was a bit ugly, and he said, "Mr. Buss, please don’t look at me with colored glasses. I buy the Lakers to manage them well. Moreover, even if you don’t want to sell. Shares, the team’s operations are not in your control, the Lakers are now a major shareholder."

   Hearing Li Zhiwen's words, Jerry Buss was a little frustrated. Indeed, Li Zhiwen was right. It doesn't matter if he agrees or disagrees. The team is no longer the master.

But Jerry Buss still didn’t give up. He said to Li Zhiwen: “Mr. Li, it’s too difficult to run a team. You can’t run it casually. So I will spend $55 million to buy 65% ​​of your shares at this price. It’s already very high. In other words, Mr. Li, you made 5 million U.S. dollars in a few days."

Jerry Bass was also very dissatisfied with Phil Ansutz’s backstab, but he also expressed his understanding. After all, when the two bought the team from the partnership, Phil Ansutz made it clear that he was here. Investment.

Li Zhiwen shook his head and said, "Mr. Bath, this is impossible. Now you have only two choices, whether to sell your shares or not. There is no third. Besides, Mr. Bath, do you still have money to buy the team? "

   "I can pay in installments, and even I can mortgage the property." Jeribas said.

   Li Zhiwen was a little lamented when he heard what Jerry Buss said. Jerry Buss really loves the Lakers, but he would not agree to sell shares.

   "How to prove?" Li Zhiwen said with interest.

   "It's very simple, you just have to say the names of the Lakers' current players and where they play." Jeri Bass said.

   "Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, serving as center, jersey No. 33... Irvin Johnson, serving as point guard, jersey No. 32..." Li Zhiwen said one by one.

Listening to Li Zhiwen’s words, Jerry Buss was a little surprised, but Li Zhiwen really knew it. After Li Zhiwen finished speaking, Jerry Buss thought for a while and said: "Mr. Li, I agree to sell my shares. I hope you can lead the Lakers. Towards glory, but my share is sold without my own consent. I still need the consent of the alliance. You need to do this job."

And Curatos Blank on the side said: "No problem, I discussed with the alliance when I acquired the shares of Feier Ansut. If you want to come to Mr. Bath, the alliance will also agree to transfer your shares. "

   Hearing what Curatos Blank said, Jerry Buss had no luck anymore, and said: "Okay, then I will wait for your news."

   At this time, Li Zhiwen said: "Mr. Bass, happy cooperation, you can also buy other teams, I think there will be many teams willing."

   "I understand, Mr. Lee!" Jerry Buss said.

   After that, he entered the negotiation link. Now that he was ready to sell, Jeribas worked hard to fight for his own interests, and finally bought 35% of Jeribas’s shares for 30 million US dollars.
