Hao Ming was very excited, but was poured cold water by Li Rui's words.

"After the All-Stars come back, we must limit Lin Shuhao's playing time and do not allow him to play for more than twenty minutes in each game." Li Rui said.

Hao Ming was very surprised: "Why?"

Li Rui said: "Lin Shuhao has hidden dangers of injury, don't you not know? And haven't you noticed that his performance has declined recently?"

Hao Ming said: "His knee problem is indeed a bit problem, but the team doctor said that as long as you pay attention to it, there will be no big problems. As for his performance... Recently, all opponents have been guarding him strictly, and it is normal for the data to drop."

Of course, Li Rui would not tell Hao Ming that he had a future prescient, knowing that Lin Shuhao was just a flash in the pan.

Lin Shuhao's transformation from Lin Crazy to an ordinary player took only one month, and it can be regarded as the most ups and downs in NBA history.

There are many reasons for falling, one is injury, and the other is that Lin Shuhao's playing style is relatively simple, and he gradually adopted a targeted defensive strategy after he became familiar with the opponent.

Lin Shuhao does not have particularly strong shooting ability, and mainly relies on breakthroughs to score points. Compared with European and Magnesium athletes, his offensive efficiency will plummet after being closely guarded. In addition, the starting speed and directional change ability caused by injuries are reduced.

, which made him become lost in everyone from now on.

Whether from a business perspective or thinking about the team's performance, Li Rui does not want Lin Shuhao to be short-lived. He also hopes to gain value from Lin Shuhao for a long time.

Reducing playing time may make Lin Shuhao's fans unhappy in a short period of time, but it can keep Lin Shuhao healthy and will not continue to amplify his weaknesses. In the long run, it will still be profitable.

Hao Ming has a gentle personality and admires Li Rui very much. Since Li Rui has made such a decision, he has not opposed it.

The matter of Lin Shuhao was settled, and Hao Ming talked about the naming merchant again.

Li Rui tore up the naming contract of T-ji and lost a lot of money. The Rockets are currently in a vacuum period without title sponsorship at home.

Originally, Hao Ming thought this matter was too risky, but with the rise of Lin Shuhao and the surge in the Rockets' football market, sponsors from all walks of life have put out olive branches, and the sponsorship contracts given are larger than the other, and the number is even commonplace.

Hao Ming was shocked by the big scene and finally realized that Li Rui was playing a big game!

After Hao Ming's screening and approval from the NBA League, the most important thing is Li Rui's choice. The Rockets' home court finally has a new title merchant: Shengmin Bank!

Of course, Li Rui has many reasons to make this choice.

The first and most direct reason is that Li Rui himself is a director of Shengmin Bank. According to his usual principle of not leaving any other people's land, it is simply natural for Shengmin Bank to sponsor the Rockets.

The second reason is even simpler. Shengmin Bank gives more money. Among the six sponsors who have entered the last shortlist, Shengmin Bank ranks second in the price, and the naming fee reaches 20 million magnesium per year.

It is more than four times the original sponsorship fee of 4.75 million magnesium!

The third reason only Li Rui knows is that Shengmin Bank will maintain a relatively fast and stable development in the next few years, and there will be no messy things such as scandals, bankruptcy, overdue, debt, etc., and the one with the highest bidder will be

Zhenshi Group is different from the third-highest Jinli Group. One will be in chaos in two years, while the other will simply scatter. No matter how much they bid, Li Rui will not agree.

Of course, there is another reason, that is, President Dong of Shengmin called Li Rui and had a very sincere attitude towards obtaining the naming right.

Shengmin Bank has been working hard to expand its overseas market in recent years. In 2007, it invested 320 million magnesium to acquire 9.9% of the equity of Magnesium United Bank Holding Company, becoming the largest shareholder, and taking the first step in internationalization.

.

In addition, Shengmin Bank is committed to providing customized financial management services, commonly known as "private banking" business, and urgently needs to lock in high-net-worth customer groups and cultivate potential user groups. According to their portrait analysis of Rockets fans, it is believed that sponsorship

The Rockets are a good choice. They can not only shape the brand image of Shengmin Bank in front of audiences around the world, but also target some target user groups. It is very worth investing.

The husband has love and the concubine has intentions. The two sides hit it off and reached an agreement on this.

Li Rui charged another 4 million yuan, giving Shengmin Bank a chance to show his face in the "Running" episode, and then giving a strong sense of presence among the audience of variety show, and even more

Everyone was very happy.

Hao Ming said: "This year, the Rockets have added five new sponsors and replaced their home title sponsors. Due to Lin Shuhao's lifting, the sales of tickets and various peripheral products are also very good. It is conservatively estimated that this season

Profits will increase tenfold!"

"Ten times! How many can that be?" Li Rui asked in surprise.

Hao Ming said: "More than 100 million magnesium!"

Li Rui blinked: "So it's only 100 million magnesium to increase by ten times? That is to say, the Rockets made only more than 10 million magnesium per year before? It's not as high as your salary when you played!"

Hao Ming spread his hands and said, "Or what do you think, the team bosses have lost a lot of money, and the Rockets are doing well. Besides, 100 million is very small?"

Compared with other investment projects that Li Rui has slept with, 100 million magnesium is of course less than that of his earnings in the stock market for several hours.

But compared with other teams struggling on the loss line in the NBA, 100 million magnesium is really a lot. This number can rank among the top three in the current NBA league, second only to the New York Knicks and the Los Angeles Lakers.

Li Rui sighed lightly, too lazy to care about income anymore.

Anyway, I bought the Rockets just to play and advertise to expand my influence. If I really want to make money, who will do this?

The last topic is transfers. Due to the pre-season suspension, the transfer deadline for this season is set on March 15, Magnesium Time, which is about three weeks later than before.

As the season progresses, all teams are strengthening. The most attractive player on the market is Howard, who is said to have a big conflict with the Magic team management and may break out of the contract. The Magic team is also willing to

Listen to the chips given by each team.

At this time, the Warcraft was still known to be able to exchange James alone. Many teams were drooling at him and all offered chips.

The Rockets have no bargaining chips to exchange for Warcraft, but they are also planning a deal, hoping to exchange Jordan Hill for the first round pick, and Jorny Flynn and Hakeem Tabit for a player who can protect the basket inside.

.

After Hao Ming reported to Li Rui, he waited for his reply.

Li Rui recalled the 2012 draft. It seems that besides the No. 1 pick, the most memorable ones were Bradley Bill, who ranked third in the first round, Damian Lillard and the second in the second.

The 35th place in the round is the dream chaser Green, the 39th place in the round.

As for who the Rockets chose in the first round in 2012 in their previous life, Li Rui doesn't remember at all, so it must be all trash.

After Li Rui asked carefully, he realized that the Rockets currently hold two first-round draft picks, and then exchange one for Jordan Hill, and there are three.
Chapter completed!
