Chapter 18: 【News Breaking Point】


  When the hotel checked out, Yang Rui deliberately chatted with the five people he selected, and developed a summer training plan for them.
  In addition to Ben Wallace, the other four are the main shooting. Bowen only cares about the bottom corner of the right side, the other sides and the middle, the farther the better.
   flew back to New York that night, the next morning, Yang Rui and Thibodeau went to the manager's office to meet Ernie-Grunfeld.
   "Congratulations, you did a very good job this time." Ernie shook hands with the two. "Please sit down."
   greeted a few words, Ernie talked about the business. "A bonus of 5,000 per person has been hit on the account."
   Thibodeau was excited, Yang Rui was very happy, and giving money is the most realistic reward. Now they are not rich. The Knicks deserve to be known for their generous wealth. As long as they do well, the bonuses are absolutely indispensable.
   "Have you encountered any difficulties in this job? You can also mention which player is impressed."
   Thibodeau had a stomach to say, but he stubbornly looked at Yang Rui, beckoning him to speak first. After this summer league, he completely gave up the idea of ​​fighting for the first assistant.
  No matter offensive layout or on-the-spot ability, Yang Rui is obviously better than Thibodeau. Van Gundy is a defensive expert. Thibodeau can do very little, he needs to be low-key.
Yang Rui smiled and said: "I worked very well with Tom, one attack and one defense, no difficulty. In terms of players, we unanimously recommend that the team start five people, they all have special skills to help the team. Tom, what do you want Is it complementary?"
   "The summer league is gone, it's all about tactics, we're waiting to communicate with Jeff." Thibodeau said.
   "It's time to discuss basketball in September. You should now enjoy the holiday. You can take the family to the blues club's celebration party the night after tomorrow and you can bring your family." Ernie laughed.
   Celebration is not a big fan. It is located in a private club near Madison Square Garden. It belongs to the Dolan family and often holds parties.
Ernie asked: "Jerry, a reporter from Cable Sports will interview you tomorrow. They will contact you by phone. You can decide where to interview. Try to talk about some hot topics. Don’t be cautious. Many fans know you."
   Yang Rui thought, if the interview in the apartment is estimated to be the burst point, 8 square meters to live two people, it is not as good as the student dormitory, but he and Thomas are ready to move out.
   Thibodeau is very envious, and the bonus is the same, the actual management is more optimistic about Yang Rui, ready to use team resources to promote him.
  Knicks boss James Dolan is a legend. He has been drinking and taking drugs, and is considered to have unstable temper. In 1993, he was sent to a drug treatment center for treatment. And Dolan loves music very much in his spare time, he has performed as a singer. At the same time, he is also a charitable person and has extensive friendships.
Dolan is the chairman of Madison Square Garden, the president and CEO of American Cable Systems, and is also responsible for overseeing the New York Knicks, NHL New York Rangers, WNBA New York Liberties, and the U.S. Ice Hockey League’s Connecticut White Whales. .
His own cable sports channel is for the entire United States. It’s a matter of who Dolan wants to support. The Knicks did not announce that Yang Rui became an assistant teacher before. He wanted to spend some time to investigate. If his summer league performance is bad, Dolan does not Mind if you want to spend a little liquidated damages to dismiss him, then find an experienced teaching assistant.
   Now, Yang Rui has truly become a member of the Knicks.
  Yang Rui thinks that crying at the camera is a bad thing, and asks: "Manager, what is the point of the burst point? Can you give an example?"
Ernie thought about it and smiled: "It's an eye-catching topic. You can say that you have a difficult process of getting a coach's qualification certificate. It's okay to encounter racial discrimination, but don't forget to point out that our team does not have this. Kind of thing."
   In the United States, racial discrimination is always the most "burst point", often headlines, there are countless lawsuits for this kind of thing every year.
Yang Rui understands the team’s thinking and borrows his Chinese identity as a hype. Now more and more people watch the NBA in China, and the economy is developing rapidly. It is a big potential market. On the premise that no team has Chinese players, the teaching assistant is The Chinese gimmick is good.
The Knicks have always made money. Even in Yang Rui’s previous life, during the 2014-15 season, the Knicks had the worst record in the team’s history of 17 wins and 65 losses. They still generated nearly $300 million in revenue in a year. .
   came out of the stadium, Yang Rui walked home as usual, and exercised by the way. He was thinking about interviews all the way, and he didn't think there would be any breaking point.
   If it is the original Jerry, he should tell about his hardship from small to large, crying with a crying nose. Yang Rui is different. He just accepted the memory. He was like a bystander in those tragic experiences. He didn't have a deep experience, and his sense of substitution was not strong.
  Even if he really felt miserable, there was no evidence of how the coaches satirized him at the same time. If the other party refused to admit in an interview, he would appear to be a cautious person.
   is really a headache, can't he be interviewed and generously said "Am I a genius?" Whatever the evaluation, people will see the results in the future.
  Back to the apartment, Thomas who had gone out to find a job had not returned yet.
  Yang Rui began to consider moving. UU reading www.uukanshu.com now has more than ten thousand dollars in the bank card. After the start of the new season, he will have more income and can rent a better apartment.
   The phone rang, Yang Rui reached out and picked up the microphone. "Hello there."
   On the other end of the phone is a male voice of tobacco and alcohol. "Hi, little mouse, we have a party tomorrow night, are you coming?"
   Hearing this London sound, Yang Rui thought that the soul of Jerry, who had disappeared, began to be agitated, and many memories came uncontrollably.
   This man's name is Achill Strachan, a man in his early thirties, of British descent, and Jerry graduated from a five-star basketball training camp during the same period.
Jerry worked part-time, besides attending classes, he also worked as a waiter in a nearby hotel , A sense of superiority breaks through the sky.
   In China, many people like to promote the gentlemanship of the British, but in Jerry's memory, the Englishman he met was both cheap and arrogant, always thinking of bullying people, it was all bad in his bones.
   Jerry was humiliated at the last party, causing Yang Rui to come in. This time Achill wanted to find a sense of superiority from him, and had a perverted hobby that trampled on the dignity of others.
   "Why don't you speak? Isn't it because you haven't found a job yet, I'm sorry to come? Dinner is free." Archer asked proudly: "Or...we told you last time, were you angry?"
   "No, I don't want to miss the free dinner." Yang Rui's mouth sneered. "How can I be angry? I am a person with a broad mind and no overnight hatred."
  Achill only knew that "Jerry" had a thick skin and would rather be laughed at for the sake of rubbing rice.
   Yang Rui's goal is not to rub the rice, but to find the "burst point" of the news, a shortcut to fame.
