Chapter 120 All Star Troubles



Chapter 120 All Star Troubles
Bruce looked excitedly at the players celebrating wildly on the court, and was extremely satisfied with their performance!

From being [-] points behind at the beginning to now only [-] points behind the Lakers after three quarters, only judging from Wilkens' arrangement and relatively sophisticated on-the-spot coordination, after this tough game, the Warriors players and Wilkens The running-in between the two of Kens has begun to take shape!
There is no team owner who does not secretly rejoice after seeing the team's progress, and no team manager who is not stared at by these guys who are blooming with great energy!

Although the Warriors lost the game 100:104 in the end, the arrival of these players and Wilkens still surprised those professionals!

"What kind of team is this? They were a performance that fell into the abyss before, but now they have such energy. The game between the Warriors and the Lakers brought everyone a wonderful game. Let us Looking forward to the wonderful performances of these two teams in the future!"

Bruce looked at the newspaper in his hand with a smile, and was extremely satisfied with these guys' strengths. Whether it was due to their sloppy attributes or not, no one didn't like to show off!
"Mr. Bruce, hello!"

Bruce listened to the voice on the phone with some doubts, and was very surprised by the manager's call!
"Hello, Mr. Cross!" Although he didn't have much interaction with the manager of the 76ers, Bruce was still very friendly!

"I wonder if you are interested in participating in a transaction?" Cross thought for a moment and said slowly!

Hearing the other party's proposal, Bruce couldn't help showing a meaningful smile on his face, and thought to himself: "It seems that the plan has worked!"

"Sorry, Mr. Cross, we are doing very well now, and I will not consider trading at the moment!" Bruce smiled, but his tone seemed a little cold!

Cross was a little surprised. If he didn't guess wrong, because the inside line is a bit crowded, this team is looking for a deal, but now hearing Bruce's cold tone, he can't help but whisper in his heart!
"Of course, if there's a deal that I can't refuse, I don't think there's any problem at all!" Bruce added without haste after a little whet the other party's appetite!
"Damn it, I knew it!" Cross cursed secretly, thought for a while, and said directly: "Mr. Bruce, we are very interested in Donyell Marshall. I wonder if you intend to trade?"

Hearing the other party's proposal, Bruce did not answer immediately, and slowly took out the lineup information of each team in the drawer, turned over the page of the 76ers, and looked at it seriously: "Mr. Hold on!"

The current lineup of the 76ers is not bad, but their players in the main position seem to be a bit single, and they are not as comprehensive as Marshall who can shoot and grab!
Excluding the starting five players, it is estimated that Cross will basically use it as a bargaining chip, but Bruce is not very interested in the current main players of the 76ers. When he sees a name, he can't help showing a look of anticipation on his face!
"Mr. Cross, Donyell, we have no intention of trading at present. I wonder if you are interested in John Starks?"

When Cross heard Bruce's words, a hint of disappointment flashed across his face. Although the team had Ratliff and Matt Geiger in the interior, they seemed a bit weak on offense!

The pursuit of Marshall is also the best candidate for Cross after several days of searching and data analysis after hearing the boss' request!
Although Marshall is a power forward, he can play small forward and occasionally play center, and his shooting is a skill that Klose urgently needs.

Now hearing that Bruce has changed his trading plan, while disappointed, he still said a little unwillingly: "Mr. Bruce, let's get rid of Allen (Iverson), Theo (Ratliff) and Eric (Snow) , others can trade it!"

"This is really a big deal!" Bruce secretly said in surprise, he was really surprised by Cross's proposal!
Not to mention the two veterans Matt Geiger and Tyrone Hill, but George Lynch and Aaron McGee are also very good trading choices!

Hearing what Klose said, Bruce was surprised and recalled the situation of other players worth trading. It seemed a little difficult to use Marshall to get two or three players. Of course, it depends on what Klose desperately needs for Marshall. The situation!

"Can you tell me about your bargaining chip?" Bruce said calmly, already having some resolutions in his mind!
When Cross heard what Bruce said, a look of joy appeared on his face, and he hurriedly said: "We will take out Larry (Hughes) and George Lynch as bargaining chips in exchange, and you must have seen our sincerity!"

When Bruce heard Larry Hughes's name, he couldn't help showing a hint of longing on his face. He thought about the players the 76ers had asked for, and a smirk flashed across his face: "Mr. Cross, I don't think your sincerity is very good. Interested!"

Kloss was completely speechless, not to mention George Lynch, but to say that Larry Hughes was evaluated by the media as a big "Iverson" after entering the 76ers, which made so many people want to get him, But now Bruce's words are obviously not very satisfied with this transaction proposal: "Could it be a lower price?"

"Sorry, Mr. Bruce, I think we should come to discuss after a while!" Cross ended the conversation a little depressed. For him, he has shown enough sincerity, but now he doesn't want to The price has been lowered so wantonly by Bruce.

Although Cross wanted Marshall very much to get him into the team, but now he has to temporarily postpone it for some time!
Hearing the other party's words, Bruce couldn't help showing a trace of struggle on his face. After considering the current situation of the team, it is true that it is not the best time to make a deal just like what Klose did!

"Okay, Mr. Cross! I hope you can reconsider John's deal!" Bruce said simply without being long-winded!

After the call was over, Bruce couldn't help thinking secretly!

"There's Always a Sunshine" was finally released in Muller's theaters on February 2th. With the promotion of Miracle Entertainment and some gimmicks, on the day of the premiere, this romance film adapted from John Owen's novel of the same name, although somewhat The fact that it was a small crowd, and the box office achievement of 17 US dollars could not help but put a lot of pressure on Miracle Entertainment!
"Dude, we seem to be preparing to lose money this time!" Cole looked helplessly at Bruce on the opposite sofa, as if he had seen the failure of this film, his expression was very tangled!

Although Bruce knew that the film was bleak at the premiere, the current premiere cannot be described as miserable, which made him very depressed!
But when he thought of the rich harvest at the Oscars and the box office of nearly 5000 million, this made him look forward to it!

"Brother, can't you keep looking forward to it?" Bruce looked at the depressed Cole with a smile, understood the other's mood, stood up and added a little wine for him, and comforted him: "We didn't originally come here Are you prepared to lose money when you make a film?"

Cole shrugged helplessly, picked up the glass and drank it down, and said a little boringly: "Dude, what if this film doesn't get anything at the Oscars? Will we become the laughing stock of Hollywood???"

"Aha, my brother Cole, do you think I will make a loss?" Although Bruce knew the great success of this film in his previous life, with his arrival, he didn't know whether it would win the Oscars or not. There were some surprises in the selection!
"Okay, okay! I hope we can get our money back!" Cole has nothing to say, because Bruce's previous persistence has achieved great success, which makes him now blindly believe Bruce's words!

"That's right!" Bruce suppressed the uneasiness in his heart. He didn't think the success of the previous films would always be with him!

Time is about to enter the end of December. With the excellent running-in between Wilkens and the players, the Warriors have achieved a record of 12 wins and 17 losses, leading the Kings who are in ninth place by one more game. Ranked eighth in the West!
Bruce sat in the office a little depressed, looking at the various materials on the desktop that were almost full, he couldn't help but feel a headache!
The 2000 All-Star Game is the biggest task for the Warriors at present. With their good record, the home fans are more and more happy for this team!
With the influx of fans, some ticket revenue and sales of peripheral products are very exciting for Bruce!
However, the influx of so many fans caused a headache for Bruce, who was hosting the All-Star Weekend for the first time!
"Cole, I don't care what method you use, please find me a top superstar who can overwhelm the field!" Bruce said helplessly to Cole on the other side of the phone. Very depressed!
Although he is one of the bosses of Miracle Entertainment, Bruce doesn't really want to participate in the entertainment industry, and his thinking has also brought some troubles to the upcoming All-Stars!
After the league announced that the Warriors would host the 2000 All-Name Game, as Miracle Entertainment and Bruce gained fame, some singers were more than happy to offer this young man a cheap appearance request!
But after all, they are still far from the top music stars. Although the local singers in Oakland and San Francisco are very willing to improve their reputation and help them in the All-Star Game, they are mostly rappers. Loved by the ambitious Stern!

With every list rejected by Stern, Bruce was going crazy, and he had no choice but to turn to Cole for help!

"Dude, don't you think Mariah Carey is very good?" Cole suggested excitedly, he admired this queen-level singer very much!
"God, don't you know the appearance fee of this queen?" Bruce said a little speechlessly!
Although Mariah Carey is nearly [-] years old, her strong appeal and good singing skills still make her never show signs of slipping. !

Despite the throes of divorce and some troubles with her musical transition, Mariah Carey is incredibly successful!

As Mariah Carey became famous, despite being exposed by the media for some bad habits, she still went her own way.Naturally, her appearance fee for each game has become sky-high!
 Sorry for being late!
