"First of all, I am very grateful for all that Michael has done for the Houston Rockets, for all that Michael has done for the league, for all that Michael has done for basketball, for all that Michael has done for the fans, and he has brought us the best things in life! Michael, thank you. Without you, I don't think I would know basketball. I don't know that there is another sports league in the world called NBA Lin Feng took the microphone and said in a passionate voice.
There was a lot of applause. This is the last applause for Jordan who fought in NBA 20. Thank you for everything he did for NBA and basketball.
"Originally, today I would never be the leading role, nor should I be the leading role, but I think today, at this moment, in Michael's last all star game, I have to announce something, I have to announce something." Lin Feng said.
Everyone was curious. What will Lin Feng announce?
"Everybody, I'm sure you've all heard the saying that NBA is a utilitarian field, everything is a trade, whether it's a player or a team, it's just a trade. It's full of money, not humanity. I don't think it's right, it's wrong! " Lin Feng said in a hateful tone, "although this is only a business, there is an old Chinese saying that business is not meant to be. What's more, when we have a business negotiation, we need to be more affectionate! "
David Stern's eyes were a little tiny. No matter what Lin Feng and others would say, he spoke highly of what Lin Feng said at the moment. NBA can't be impersonal, which will make fans feel that NBA is not friendly enough. Although it's a classic saying since ancient times that there is no father and son in business, stern doesn't want to.
"So, I made a decision today. I decided that if a player who has served in the Houston Rockets for more than 10 years and eventually retires from the service, I will give him three years' salary according to his average salary during his service in the Houston Rockets, so as to help him pass the transition period from a player to a citizen. Of course, to be clear, it's pensions. I will give all the players who have served in Houston Rockets for more than 10 years and retired in Houston Rockets a generous pension Lin Feng said.
Hiss! There was a complete silence.
This, this, this is too fierce! old-age pension. Lin Feng gave me a pension! You know, even if the Mavericks boss Kuban is such a rich man, who is very good to the players, he will haggle over the contract and don't want to waste money on the useless players. Lin Feng even gave each retired player a pension contract. It's shocking. It's really big. If he is a top star, such as olajuwan, he will receive a pension of no less than $35 million in three years after his retirement. This is also the reason why olajuwan's salary was relatively low before. And if LeBron James, who has been playing in Houston until retirement, is afraid LeBron James will get at least three years of pension contract of about $57 million.
In LeBron's heyday, the contract is worth it. But it's free after retirement! Lin Feng will pay tens of millions of dollars more every year. Although this is not included in the salary cap, Lin Feng does not have to pay luxury tax, but such generosity is still shocking.
Of course, also respected! Applause, like thunder. All the fans cheered for such a boss. Of course, at the time of cheering, everyone was wondering, is there a pension for people like Jordan? After all, Jordan only played for four years in Houston.
"Ha ha, for players like Jordan and Rodman, if they choose to retire from the Houston Rockets at the last moment of their lives and serve at least three years, then I will also give them a one-year pension. And this year's salary will be his average salary for three years in Houston Rockets. " Lin Feng smiles to let all fans feel relieved.
old-age pension! Everyone has a pension! As long as you play for the Houston Rockets, the players who have paid for the Houston Rockets will get the pension sent by Lin Feng.
"Well, Charles, poor Charles, you don't have a pension! If you come to Houston two years earlier, you will have a pension! " Kenny Smith looked at Barkley sitting on one side and joked.
Barkley made a face, a look of regret. Indeed, if he had come to Houston two years earlier, he would have been able to enjoy the benefits.
"Well, I think Sir Charles will regret coming to Houston Rockets. However, here I want to tell our Sir Charles that although you only came to Houston Rockets for one year, we all see what you have done for the Rockets. As long as the Rockets retired players, I will receive a personal retirement bonus. Of course, it can't be as generous as the pension, but I think it at least represents the heart of the Houston Rockets to all the players Lin Feng said with a smile.
"Oh, my God, my God, I can have a red envelope! Oh, my God, my God, all the players on the court or in front of the TV, here, here, is your basketball Mecca! My God, guys, come to Houston Rockets! Especially those old guys who didn't win the championship like me, come to the Rockets. Here can give you the championship, but also give you a retirement bonus. And if you can serve here for three years, you get a pension. Oh, my God, is there a better place than here! No, guys, this is basketball Mecca! Houston Rockets, I love you! Boss, I love you! Fengshen, I love you Barkley heard Lin Feng's words and jumped up with excitement.
Originally, he and his partner Kenny Smith were guest commentators tonight to explain Jordan's last basketball game. At the moment, he jumped directly from the commentary stand, directly to the court, with a microphone, shouting wildly.
Old boy! That's another name for Buckley. It's true that this big man is really simple sometimes.
Stern is speechless. He understood why Lin Feng dared to give everyone the top salary. You know, the team is limited by salary cap. If your salary exceeds the salary cap, you can't sign any players. You can't sign anyone except the base salary for veteran players and some new players. And a team, all superstars, that doesn't work. And Lin Feng's pension is linked to all the players, especially those veteran players. They will choose to sign a contract with the base salary and get a pension in addition to a championship. There's nothing better than that.
At this moment, Lin Feng's charity is well known all over the world. Not only for the veteran, I'm afraid for the rookie, those rookies, Houston Rockets, will be the holy land of their choice. Because, here will have the richest salary. And this pension, stern, or the alliance, is unstoppable. Because Lin Feng signed a contract directly and gave money to others, the alliance could not stop it. And those team owners, I'm afraid, will also start to have a headache. Why is Lin Feng so rich!
The magic of money, this is the real magic of money!
Of course, only Houston Rockets general manager Dawson is not happy at the moment. No, yesterday he and Lin Feng also discussed how the Houston Rockets could balance their spending and be self-sufficient. According to Dawson's assessment, Houston Rockets will not worry about the pension problem in the next 10 years. When this group of players begin to retire, the Houston Rockets will really encounter the black hole of money.
That's going to cost at least $50 million in extra pension every year. This is extra. If you add in the original salary expenses and luxury tax, the annual expenses of Houston Rockets will exceed 200 million dollars. Well, boss, you win. I hope you can always have so much money! Dawson can only hope so.
"Fengshen! Fengshen! Fengshen The audience cheered wildly.
All the fans are crazy about Lin Feng's humanity. This is Houston, where 90% of the audience are from Houston. They are very happy that Houston Rockets has such a generous boss. With such a boss, it is impossible for the Houston Rockets not to become the championship in the future. It's the happiness of all Houston fans.
Lin Fengyin smiles. This promise of pension will make Lin Feng spend at least 50 million US dollars more each year in the future. But the popularity gained is far more than 50 million dollars. Moreover, this commitment will not come into effect until ten years later. In these ten years, Lin Feng's popularity and reputation will be well-known in the United States and even in the world. The outside world's evaluation of Lin Feng is not only publicity, but also reporting and madness, which has negative evaluation.
The most loving boss, the most benevolent boss, the most generous boss. This will become the label of Lin Feng's future. This is not very helpful to Lin Feng, who is keen on it. But once Lin Feng is involved in industry, it will bring endless benefits to Lin Feng. All employees hope that the boss is loving and generous, and Lin Feng is such a boss. Having these reputations is of great benefit to Lin Feng's future investment in all walks of life abroad.
Only 50 million dollars, in exchange for a good reputation, Lin Feng thought it was worth it. Especially in the face of this "Microsoft" campaign, Lin Feng needs a good reputation in this foreign country.
In 2006, the Houston all star game ended perfectly. On this night, the world was not only saddened by Jordan's ending, but also moved by Lin Feng's generosity and charity. This night, the most famous, the most prominent is undoubtedly Lin Feng.
Lin Feng's fame has undoubtedly made G23 unhappy.
