Chapter 265 Yao Ming’s arrival

One of the biggest characteristics of news is its timeliness. Only timely broadcasts can cause sensation. If you are one day, one hour, or even one minute later, it will not cause the expected effect.

At the age of 20, I broke the long-clogged regular season overtime scoring record, which was completely covered by my car shock incident after the game. Everyone was following the photos of car shocks posted online (in fact, they couldn't see anything. The dim light and the barriers from the windows could only vaguely see the flesh color). Celebrity's peach erotic stories always aroused people's curiosity. When everyone came to their senses and prepared to study the great move of my new record, the Wizards broke the big event of the problematic character "Flower Bug" Dennis Rodman's comeback again. My great achievements were understateed.

Perhaps it was Chauncey Billups' Feng Shui trick that played a role, or Larry Hughes' comeback and Dennis Rodman's addition to effectively improve the Wizards' strength again. The team actually started a winning streak, first defeating the Atlanta Hawks at home, then defeating the Orlando Magic 21 points away, then defeating the opponent 28 points in a back-to-back away game against the Chicago Bulls, and then splitting the Warriors in half at the Golden State Warriors' home court.

The Wizards unknowingly achieved five consecutive victories. Chauncey Billups showed off his Feng Shui achievements every day. When changing clothes in the team's locker room, he was superstitious to look at each player's "tightening curse". Only when he saw that it was fine, his teammates could wear it on his head. Once there was any damage, they would change it immediately.

The attention of the China Securities Regulatory Commission and the Securities Association to me has forced me to pay attention to my operations. Moreover, there are more than 100 million US dollars in the stock index futures account. Such a huge amount of funds is completely unfavorable to my operations. Every operation of my operations can cause shocks in the stock market, and I have to transfer funds from the stock index futures account to the stock account.

Although I worked in securities companies all my life, I am not a professional after all. I don’t know much about foreign stock markets except a very small number of companies. However, I understand the situation in China. This time I targeted three of the four major online stocks in China listed on Nasdaq-Sina.com, Sohu.com, and NetEase.

Sina, Sohu, and NetEase both went public in 2000. After listing, they encountered an Internet bubble and their stock prices fell.

The worst fall was NetEase. It fell below the issue price on the day of its listing, and then the stock price fell all the way. In 2001, its stock price fell below the bottom line of $1, and was suspended for 4 months. The current stock price is only US$1.4, and the stock price can be said to be the bargain price among the bargain prices.

Then there is Sohu.com. Sohu.com, founded by Zhang Chaoyang, the later top ten richest man in China, has plummeted after it went public on the Nasdaq on June 30, 2000, falling to a low of US$1.36 per share. The stock price has rebounded slightly, reaching US$2.3 per share, which is slightly higher than the price of bargain.

Among the four Chinese Internet stocks listed on Nasdaq in 2000 (and one China.com) were the best performer. Although they fell sharply, the worst time was only $5. Currently, as the influence of the Internet bubble gradually faded, the stock price has begun to slowly rebound, and has recently risen to $7 per stock.

I don’t know how the stocks of these three companies will perform on the Nasdaq in the future, but I know that these three networks will be at a low level in the minds of Chinese netizens in the future. I know how many people are using these three networks. They almost monopolized China’s more than 80 Internet users. In addition to Tencent, which later went public, they are the top three in Chinese Internet myths.

The current financial situation of these three companies is not very good, they are all operating at a loss, so their stock index is still relatively low now, but I am not afraid of these. I know that these are only temporary, and in the days to come, they will burst out with extremely strong money-making ability.

As for China.com, which was first listed on Nasdaq, whose stock price was once hyped up to US$220 and whose total market value reached US$5 billion, I chose to ignore it directly. This stock was famous in later generations. It was not only forcibly delisted by Nasdaq, but also plagued by lawsuits, and it seemed that it would never stand out.

I began to slowly divide the shares of these three stocks and try not to attract other people's attention.

The next game was against the Rockets at home. Yao Ming called me in advance and wanted to come to my house to try the Chinese food I cooked in my own hands.

I had to take leave early to Michael Jordan, not participate in the afternoon training, and prepare to welcome Yao Ming's arrival. Michael Jordan smiled brightly and kept saying that he should take good care of Yao Ming, which would be of great use to me in developing the Chinese market. I knew he was wrong, and I didn't think about developing the Chinese market at all. I was just a little excited when facing my former idol.

I drove my car to buy a full trunk of food and seasonings in the supermarket, and busy preparing every process at home and waiting patiently for Yao Ming's arrival.

Ivanka Trump saw me busy all the time, and he pouted his mouth unhappily, claiming that she was not as good as Yao Ming from a foreign country because I had never cooked a meal for her in person. I had to make her happy by making a promise to make a Chinese meal for her in the next week.

Yao Ming is here!

But not alone, the Rockets boss Steve Francis and the old cat Katino Mobri are accompanying them.

Ivanka Trump was greeting three people, and I got into the kitchen and started my life as a chef.

Three spoons, I am not those who are very skilled in hand, but it is not slow either. Before Yao Ming arrived, I had already stewed chicken with mushrooms and braised pork on a gas and stewed on a low heat. Now I only need to stir-fry some of the easier leftover dishes.

"Kaomei, what delicious food are you cooking today?" Yao Ming got into the kitchen and asked.

"First two hard dishes, stewed with mushrooms in chicks, how about braised pork? There will be sweet and sour reasons, stir-fried waist flowers, spicy stir-fried clams..." A series of names of dishes popped out from my mouth.

"No! Kwamei, you really can cook so much Chinese food?" Yao Ming's eyes widened.

"Just do it!" I quickly called haha.

"I smell your chicken stewed mushrooms, which tastes very authentic? And the braised pork is really authentic in color! Oh my God, your sweet and sour carp smells more fragrant than my mother made..." A series of flattery came out of Yao Ming's mouth.

I’m very happy that no one has ever praised the dishes I cook like this. Although I had mastered a good cooking skill when I was a security guard in my previous life, those greedy friends never praised me seriously except for eating.

"Kaomei, who did you learn to cook? If you didn't know that you lived in the United States since childhood and were a pure American who could not be more pure, I really suspect that you grew up in China. Even a Chinese rarely cooks such a good dish like you!" Yao Ming said.

"What am I? It's just a mess. My master's cooking is delicious!" I changed the topic.

"I have been hearing you talk about your master. Where is your master now? I'll visit you someday!" Yao Ming looked curious.

"I don't know where he went. On the first day, I asked me to practice kung fu. The next day, I sent a note saying that he had returned to China, and there was no news about him after that." I pretended to be sad, and then lowered my head and made my sweet and sour carp seriously.

Yao Ming showed an apology, and immediately changed the topic and said, "It's good like you. Not only has he inherited the essence of Chinese culture, but he has also abandoned the dross in Chinese culture. Hey, like me, he still has to be bullied by Chinese culture! Alas!" Yao Ming sighed softly, as if he was inspired.

"What's wrong, what happened?" I asked with my head raised.

"About the Chinese Basketball Association! They asked me to pay 30 for my salary, saying that I was trained by the country. And this summer (it was already January 2003) I still have to participate in the Olympic qualifiers, mom! I can win a few games whether I go or not, I still have to go! Otherwise, I will be banned like Wang Zhizhi!"

"My annual salary is more than 4 million yuan, less than 5 million yuan. After deducting tax burden, I can only get about 3 million yuan. I have to pay more than 2 million yuan to the country. I have to pay the fees of my two broker teams. Each team pays me 7 yuan as their compensation, which has gone for hundreds of thousands. In addition, I buy a house and other things, I found that my first year's salary was not enough. If I hadn't signed several commercial endorsement contracts, I wouldn't know if I would be poor and wandering on the streets..."

Yao Ming was venting his voice, and his voice was full of dissatisfaction with the officials of the Basketball Association. Although he did not accuse him of blood and tears, he was already full of words.

"Do I need to help you?" I asked Yao Ming gently.

"What can you help me? You are not the President of China, you can't help me. Only when leaders who are higher-level than them speak can I not be oppressed by them like this, otherwise everything will be nonsense!" Yao Ming looked disbelieving.

"Don't worry about how I help you. If you ask me to help you, I will help you!" I smiled mysteriously.

"The national conditions are different. Although you know Chinese Kung Fu and you can cook Chinese cuisine, the different national conditions may only waste your time!" Yao Ming didn't believe that I could help him.

"Not necessarily! Although I am not a Chinese, there is an old saying in China that foreign monks can recite scriptures! I am a foreign monk, maybe the scriptures I recite may be better!" I said with a smile.

"Okay! Let's talk about how you recite the scriptures first!" Yao Ming asked curiously.

"Keep confidential for the time being!" I said with a smile.

"It's still confidential..." Yao Ming shook his head and wanted to say something.

"It's not confidential, the sweet and sour carp is going to be out of the pot, ha..." I interrupted Yao Ming and put the just-made sweet and sour carp into the fish pond.

Yao Ming, who was 226 cm tall, picked up the plate and walked towards the restaurant.
