"Mr. Zhuang, do you know, our boss has always appreciated your achievements in Boston, he has long wanted to work with you, but he has never had the opportunity, and now, he has become the boss of the Celtics, I think your combination will be able to shock everyone"

On the road from the Boston Celtics team building to Beacon Hill, Zhuang Fei was sitting on a luxurious extended Lincoln with this Adelson assistant, the speed was very slow, and the two people in the car were in very different moods at this time, at this time Adelson's assistant was recommending their boss to Zhuang Fei, this assistant was still very polite to Zhuang Fei, obviously maybe things were like he said, his boss really admired Zhuang Fei and hoped to get Zhuang Fei's service, and at this time, As the first thing to become the owner of the Boston Celtics, it is natural to deal with Zhuang Fei's affairs, in this case, Zhuang Fei still has a mental estimate of being invited by Adelson to 'drink coffee' today, but for the assistant of the new boss of the Celtics, Zhuang Fei did not say too much, did not ridicule him or accept him, because it was completely unnecessary, and this assistant didn't care about Zhuang Fei's cold attitude at all, and still spared no effort to praise Zhuang Fei and his boss.

It is precisely because of this that the atmosphere on this luxury car is extremely awkward now, Zhuang Fei is looking at the scenery of Boston on one side and on the other side there is always a person chattering on his own, but fortunately, today's destination Beacon Hill is not too far, although the speed is slower, but Zhuang Fei can still stand it.

Beacon Hill is one of the most luxurious villa areas in Boston, there are many rich and wealthy people living in Boston in this place, according to the land price here, in fact, it can be compared with Manhattan in New York, of course, Boston is the place where the housing prices in the United States are relatively high, and Beacon Hill is one of the top, and when Zhuang Fei got off the car, he stopped in front of an extremely luxurious courtyard villa, according to the area of this villa according to Zhuang Fei's visual measurement, although it is not as large as his villa in Minnesota of tens of thousands of square meters, But this villa is also at least three or four thousand square meters or more, if calculated according to the price of almost 8,000 US dollars or even 10,000 US dollars per square meter here, the value of this villa is at least more than 25 million US dollars, of course, with Zhuang Fei's financial resources, he wants to get such a villa in this place There is no problem, but this is completely unnecessary, he is still used to living with Green and them, of course, for Zhuang Fei's assistant Adelson, He also smiled when he saw Zhuang Fei standing at the door of the villa in a daze, obviously he thought that Zhuang Fei was stunned, maybe in his heart, although he was courteous to Zhuang Fei on the surface, he still had a sense of superiority in front of Zhuang Fei in his heart, but what he didn't know was that Zhuang Fei had lived in larger villas.

"Mr. Zhuang, go this way. I think Mr. Adelson should have been waiting for you for a long time" Under the reminder of this assistant, Zhuang Fei also followed him into Adelson's villa.

Zhuang Fei and Adelson are no strangers, before the Boston Celtics won the championship, he met the rich second generation for the first time at the gathering of all the rich people in Boston, and the rich second generation was humiliating the Boston Celtics' group of dick bosses, plus the conflict between the rich second generation and the Celtics bosses intensified. It also makes Zhuang Fei's senses for him not very good, at least although he admires his ability, this guy's ability is not to say, a shopping mall strongman like Grushbeck is played by him, such a person is not an ordinary rich second generation, but even so, Zhuang Fei still doesn't like this guy.

Soon, Zhuang Fei, under the leadership of this Adelson assistant, saw in a spacious room in the Adelson villa that he had just won the Boston Celtics, and the methods were extremely ruthless, and this was also the first time that Zhuang Fei carefully looked at this guy who had caused a lot of trouble for the Boston Celtics, judging from the appearance and temperament of this guy to Zhuang Fei's senses are not bad, if you don't know him as a person, you still think that he is a noble son, but now Zhuang Fei naturally doesn't think so, of course, Like Zhuang Fei in a large number of Adelson, this rich second generation has also been in a large number of him since Zhuang Fei came in.

"Mr. Zhuang, I was supposed to visit you in person at the Celtic Building in Boston today, but now I think you know that. I'm not fit to be on the team right now, but don't worry, I'm ready to let Martin take over the day-to-day affairs of the Boston Celtics in full, and he will fully assist you in managing everything for the Boston Celtics, and the Boston Celtics will definitely not mess up" Just when Zhuang Fei was still in a large number of this rich second generation. The rich second generation spoke directly, and introduced to Zhuang Fei his assistant who had just brought Zhuang Fei in, while Zhuang Fei frowned and looked at the person he disdained just now, and at this time, the assistant also nodded politely after feeling Zhuang Fei's gaze. It looks very professional.

"Zhuang, I know that you are the chairman and general manager and head coach of the team, you can rest assured. Although I am new to the team, I also know that you are one of the most important people in the team, Martin will not trouble your work, his position is the deputy general manager, and the general manager of the team is still concurrently served by you" Seeing Zhuang Fei's face a little bad, Adelson also smiled and continued: "I can assure you that after I enter the team, everything will not change, you can still get the greatest authority, and I believe that we can achieve the greatest success together"

Adelson's words are very good, but Zhuang Fei knows that things are not simple, this young man is similar to Zhuang Fei in age, and he is also not low in ambition, now he really doesn't have much to do with Zhuang Fei, he drove away Grussbeck's group of dicks into the Boston Celtics, those fans will scold and scold for a long time, he will definitely know this, so now he is hiding in his villa to drink coffee, and he also knows that only after the start of the new season of the Boston Celtics, There won't be too many people who care about the fact that he, a former enemy, controls the team, and when he wins the new season championship or wins two more championships with the help of Zhuang Fei, these fans will no longer remember him as a former enemy, and that period of history is also selectively forgotten, as for Grusebeck, these people will slowly be forgotten like that history, and when he establishes authority with the Boston Celtics, it doesn't matter so much whether Zhuang Fei leaves or stays, but now. In the past two years, Zhuang Fei is very important, Zhuang Fei is his biggest weight to stabilize the Boston Celtics, as long as Zhuang Fei does not leave, he will be as stable as a rock in the Boston Celtics.

In fact, this is also one of his plans, and in fact he has a lot of opportunities to launch the final blow of buying the Boston Celtics. And he has endured it and didn't do it, not for other reasons, but because Zhuang Fei and the Celtics did not complete the contract renewal until the end of the regular season last season, and what he wanted was for Zhuang Fei to renew the contract with the Celtics, when the Celtics and Zhuang Fei renewed the contract, he could do his own thing without any worries, but what he never expected was that although Zhuang Fei's contract with the Celtics was signed for five years, at this time, for him, it was the same as not signing. Because Zhuang Fei has the clause to jump out of the contract at any time, after seeing this contract in the early hours of this morning, he wanted to tear up Grusbeck, the former owner of the Boston Celtics, such a humiliating contract or an extremely unequal contract for the owner and the team.

But in any case, even insulting Grusbeck will not help them at all for the current Adelson, because it is already irreversible. And in fact. This incident has also become the biggest loophole in Adelson's plan, and even the most fatal one, whether it is the forced acquisition of Highland Investment Company or the promise of the Boston Celtics after completing an agreement with David Stern, or taking over the team as soon as possible after the acquisition. He did everything perfectly, but the only imperfect Zhuang Fei's contract renewal was able to make all this come to naught.

If Zhuang chooses to leave out of contract, he will not be able to establish himself with the Boston Celtics for the next five or even 10 years, or never. This is not a joke, this is absolutely true, at this time Zhuang Fei's prestige in the Celtics, the prestige among the Celtic players, is not something he can throw casually, although he is arrogant, but he is not stupid, if he is really a fool, he will not make such a thorough or even perfect plan, in this case, he can only be like his assistant has always been courteous to Zhuang Fei, as he himself said.

Zhuang Fei is the most important person in the Boston Celtics right now, and at this time, if Zhuang Fei can stabilize the Celtics, and those troublesome fans, sad former bosses or the management who have left class have little to do with it.

And for this Adelson's invitation, Zhuang Fei would not think that this was a simple tea drink between the boss and the coach from the beginning, because from the previous series of extremely resolute and ruthless characters of this rich second generation and even did not leave a way back for the enemy, this guy Zhuang Fei would not simply think that he would treat him like Grussbeck, Grussbeck could not sign an unequal treaty with Zhuang Fei without the dignity of his boss, but this Mr. Adelson is absolutely impossible, because Zhuang Fei knows very well, The two are the same kind of people in a sense, the same sex repels each other, since ancient times, there is no tragedy when two too tough people meet together.

And just as Zhuang Fei guessed, when Zhuang Fei sat down, although the new owner of the Boston Celtics was still extremely enthusiastic about Zhuang Fei, he soon led the conversation to the renewal of the contract.

"Mr. Zhuang, I found that there is a problem with this contract when I was looking through your contract renewal with the team this morning, and it is not suitable for you" Looking at Zhuang Fei and not saying much, the new owner of the Boston Celtics also continued: "In my opinion, you are the best head coach on the planet, such an annual salary is definitely not worthy of you, and I have a new contract here, the contract period is still 5 years, but the annual salary will be 50 million, if Mr. Zhuang thinks there is no problem, we will re-sign it, In this way, you will be the highest-paid head coach in the world" and after Adelson finished speaking, he also took out a pre-prepared document from his side and handed it to Zhuang Fei, in his opinion, Zhuang Fei would not refuse such a contract even if he was dissatisfied with him, with an annual salary of 50 million, which is not a price that ordinary people can afford, even if the entire NBA can afford such an annual salary, there are only three or four teams besides him. And as long as Zhuang Fei signs himself on this contract, the Celtics head coach will not be played by him casually in the future.

It's just that to the great surprise of Adelson and his assistant, Zhuang Fei didn't intend to sign it at all, but directly left the contract on the ground, and didn't forget to step on it.

"Mr. Adelson, you're smart, but I'm not stupid, I know what you mean. But obviously, I have no intention of signing a new contract with the Celtics, and now I have to officially inform you that I have decided that from now on, my contract with the Boston Celtics will be terminated" Zhuang Fei was still smiling at this time, but Adelson at this time did not have the calm and graceful aristocratic temperament just now, on the contrary. At this time, his face had slowly become hideous.

"Do you know what you're doing" Adelson stared at Zhuang Fei with fierce eyes and said, Zhuang Fei did not renew the contract, he was prepared, after all, this matter is not so simple, Zhuang Fei is still angry, but what he never expected was that Zhuang Fei would jump out of the contract so decisively, Zhuang Fei and Celtic have a 5-year contract, even if Zhuang Fei is dissatisfied with him, as long as he does not offend Zhuang Fei in the next two years. Everything is done according to Zhuang Fei's wishes, then Zhuang Fei will hesitate, and he will definitely not find a reason to jump out of the contract, as long as the buffer period of one or two years has passed, Zhuang Fei is still at his kneading. Only now it is clear that he made a mistake in his calculations.

"Why? I think you should know better than me, you are a very decisive person, and I am also not a person who drags mud and water," Zhuang Fei said with a smile at this time. Adelson, on the other hand, changed his face again.

"I want to know what makes me inferior to Grusbeck's stupid donkey, why don't you want to play under Grusbeck and follow me, you will get the best player and the most money with me," Adelson continued to stare at Zhuang Fei and said, and Zhuang Fei laughed directly.

"I didn't play under Mr. Gruesbeck. He never treated me as a subordinate, and I never treated him as a boss, we are equal collaborators, and more importantly, I am not short of money, and the most important thing in the NBA is not money" It's just that after Zhuang Fei finished speaking, it was Adelson's turn to laugh, and this laughter was naturally mockery.

"The most important thing in NBA1 is not money? Hahaha, Mr. Zhuang, this is the funniest joke I've ever heard, if I remember correctly, next year, Jackson's contract is 8.5 million, Maddy's salary is 13 million, Jermaine O'Neal is 14 million, James Posey is 10 million, this season Celtics still need to renew Yao Ming with the highest salary, then Wade will be renewed after the end of the contract period, and even in 2005, Maddie will have to take out 20 million to renew Maddie's contract after jumping out of the contract, and in 2006, These guys have contracts of more than 80 million, and I wonder how many teams in the league can afford to pay that salary?" After Adelson finished speaking, he didn't forget to look at Zhuang Fei contemptuously, obviously in his opinion, as long as there is enough money for him to pile up players, his team can succeed, just like he did when he was in the casino before, in the dark world of the casino, money is everything, and in his law of survival, money is the truth of everything As long as he has enough money, let alone the NBA championship, even the president of the United States He can pile it up, in fact, although Donaghi's thing last season has nothing to do with him, but there is no doubt about it, Donaghi made everyone know one thing, selling one's soul is valuable, so what else in the world is priceless?

"Zhuang, I'll give you another chance, if you are still willing to stay with the Boston Celtics, then sign the contract at your feet immediately, then you will still be the general manager and head coach of the Boston Celtics or even the master of the Celtics in the future, this is your only choice, you should know the fate of being my enemy, maybe you will be worse than the stupid donkeys of Grusbeck now, you know, a coach Z who can't win the championship can't get anyone's respect, And the reputation you have built up in the past ten years will also depend on your choice this time, follow me, you will win countless championships, leave me, you will have nothing" At this time, Adelsen's face became much better, and he was also much more majestic, but this sense of superiority still made Zhuang Fei extremely annoying, Zhuang Fei didn't like these people who claimed to be gods. Although he was very angry in his heart, Zhuang Fei didn't show much at this time, but thought of another idea.

"Mr. Adelson, you are the son of the world gambling king family, why don't we make a bet" Zhuang Fei said with a smile at this time.

"Bet?" Adelson was also stunned, but quickly nodded: "Interesting, let's talk about it"

"Mr. Adelson, if in the next season my team can't achieve better results than your team, even if I lose, if I lose, I will retire from the NBA and basketball forever, of course, before that, I will say to all Boston Celtics fans, my resignation is not because of you but because of my own volition"

"And what if I lose?" When Zhuang Fei finished the bet, the new owner of the Boston Celtics also lit up.

"If you lose, it's very simple, the Boston Celtics are owned by me, how about it" At this time, Zhuang Fei didn't have the smile just now but looked at the rich second generation with burning eyes, and Adelson was also in deep thought, and after half a sound, the rich second generation finally nodded.

"Deal" (To be continued.) )
