Chapter 224: [1 belt 1 road, bold prediction]


On the 10th, it was Thursday. The Raptors did not play, and Yang Rui left Toronto with Stanna Cartick one day in advance.
He did not rush to check in at the hotel in Oakland, but went to Silicon Valley to find Thomas Bentley and met his new agent John O'Connor.
Thomas took the time to help Yang Rui interview the agent, and finally settled on this smiling, sunny, medium-sized, middle-aged white man who looked like a university professor.
In this matter, Thomas insisted on helping Yang Rui to take the lead. Choosing an agent must not be sloppy. He must find an experienced one. Brokers sometimes have to act as legal advisers or microphones, saying what employers dare not say and embarrassed to say. It's good to talk, and it won't hurt you if you don't talk.
Racial discrimination is implicit in American society, so it is best to find a white person. In addition, it is necessary to be good at investment, to be able to speak well, and to be morally justifiable.
Yang Rui and John talked for an hour, very satisfied, the two sides officially began cooperation. John's work includes public relations and investment guidance, maintaining Yang Rui's public relations and public image, helping him realize potential value and avoiding mistakes in decision-making.
John will also infiltrate Yang Rui's life to a certain extent and help him deal with life's affairs. For example, if he goes to other teams, help him find a place to stay and match a car; he is excited, wants to do something stupid, soothes his emotions and so on.
Of course, on Facebook, John couldn't get in the way, there was no commission, only the basketball court.
In the evening, talking about the company, Thomas was a little depressed and sighed: "There has been no financing recently. Although there are more and more users, this is not a good time. The listing must be delayed, and the IT industry has entered an inflection point."
"I believe your judgment, just let go and do it."
"Well, I cleared the stock yesterday." Thomas smiled.
Yang Rui nodded. He was also afraid that Thomas would not hold the stock and sell it. The two talked with the little yellow man. This week, Yahoo's stock price has rushed to 120 yuan, a record high.
The well-known Internet bubble is about to burst, leading to the decline of US stocks and the Belt and Road Initiative.
The hallmark of this period was the establishment of a group of Internet companies whose most investment failed, often referred to as "". The combination of soaring stock prices and buyer hype, and the widespread use of venture capital have created a hotbed for these companies to abandon standard business models, break through the bottom line of traditional models, and instead focus on how to increase market share.
Yang Rui didn't know when the bubble broke, and it was definitely not far away. After 2000-2002, it was the stage of the collapse of the US stock market.
The loud noise of 911 will make the US stock market closed on Tuesday for four days in 2001. When the market opened on Monday, the market without the protection of falling limit was like Shao Bin in the movie, and there was no suspense.
The Dow fell more than 800 points a day, and since then it has reached a minimum of more than 7000 points. During the period, the interest rate was lowered nearly ten times, until no chips were available, and the two cities could not be saved from falling into the abyss.
Therefore, if Facebook wants to raise funds for listing, it will have to wait until after 2002, otherwise it will be a mistreatment.
On Friday, the All-Star weekend begins.
Yang Rui received someone in Auckland, stayed at the arranged hotel, and interviewed with the media of various countries with the players. After the suspension, the ratings of NBA dropped a lot, but it is still recognized as the strongest basketball league on the planet, attracting a lot of The media arrived in Auckland.
Among them, naturally including Chinese tv5, Wang Zhizhi was not selected immediately after being selected by the Mavericks, and continued to fight for Chinese ba, Yang Rui became the most concerned person in the domestic media.
The Chinese female reporter mentioned Yao Ming. "Jerry, there were rumors before. The 76ers coach Larry Brown said that as long as Yao Ming joins NBA, he will use 4 years to make him a talent. What do you think?"
"This news is too fake." Yang Rui said deliberately.
The female reporter thought that he was not optimistic and was a little disappointed. Yang Rui showed a smile of "You have been fooled": "Does it take Yao Mingcheng to spend four years so long? I took him to the crown a year, but if he was Participating in the draft, the pick is definitely in the top five and it is difficult to join my team."
Female reporters and videographers are sweating and feel more comfortable. "Are you so optimistic about him?"
"Well, no kidding, I believe Yao Ming will be able to play nba, and he will become a star, because he shows amazing talent." Yang Rui smiled and said: "Like a tall center like him, he can move flexibly and can shoot. It's a national treasure."
Yang Rui did not skimp on Yao Ming's praise. This kind of kindergarten period was more than one meter and four meters. Was the man who has never enjoyed free child tickets a gift? Now Yao Ming has played super data in ba.
The female reporter asked: "Are you willing to coach him?"
"Of course I am willing, but this is not a unilateral decision. I hope there will be a chance in the future." Yang Rui's remarks can make Yao Ming get more attention and make a good effort to win the favor of Chinese fans.
Although Yao Ming is not fast, the role of both ends of the attack and defense is still very obvious, he is the only superstar in the history of Chinese basketball. Yang Rui made a bold prediction. When Yao Ming comes, people will certainly admire his vision.
An American reporter interviewed Yang Rui, more concerned about the regular season. "Do you think the Raptors can break the Bulls' regular season record of 72-10?"
"I hope so. The player's mentality is the key. We must show our strengths in every game. In the face of such a great record, it is difficult for everyone to maintain an ordinary heart."
The reporter asked: "Do you think Carter can be elected to the regular season mvp this season?"
Yang Rui laughed: "Yes, he has strength and selflessness, high efficiency, will help the team win. We are the best team, he is the core."
In Yang Rui's previous life, the Lakers won the league's best record, O'Neal won the only regular season mvp in his career.
Carter's election is bound to be questioned by many fans, so Yang Rui has the opportunity to help him get votes, so that fans understand that in addition to the data, the record is also an important criterion.
Both are players of the league, Carter's only advantage is the record, O'Neal's data is really against the sky, a number of ranked in the forefront of the league.
His efficiency value is 30+ first~EbookFREE.me~ No. 1 in field goals per game, second in field goal percentage, No. 1 in scoring, No. 2 in rebounds, No. 3 in blocks, currently 29.7 points, 13.5 rebounds and 3.8 assists. 3 blocks are simply non-human.
The reporter asked: "Cate and McGrady both participate in the dunk contest. Who do you predict will win?"
"Carter will definitely win. He has no opponents in slam dunks. I also designed two wonderful dunks for him, and everyone will see them by then."
The reporter asked: "Are you confident in leading the Eastern Conference to defeat your opponents in this star game?"
"I can guarantee that the winner must be the East. I am very excited to be able to coach so many stars at once. I can't wait to train with Iverson, Hill and Ray Allen. The East will not only win. , You will win beautifully!"
The Western troops are many big men and are not moving fast. Yang Rui is ready to run and join the position. I believe that his team of outside stars who can shoot suddenly will not disappoint him.
After receiving the interview, Yang Rui and his friends went to the local star party to relax. The event will officially start tomorrow.
