Chapter 1873 You Call This a Charity Match?
"Well, it's not impossible to contact China..." Ji Feng rubbed his chin and lost in thought: "But it's not easy to go to China to hold a competition. After all, distance is a big problem. If it's finalized there, then here The issue is over, so it’s a piece of cake, although... I don’t think the dispute will come to an end soon.”
Ji Feng spread his hands. He also felt that it would be interesting to go to China to hold a match between domestic players and NBA stars. Just look at how popular the charity match organized by Ji Feng and Dayao was. If so many stars are involved, If it is brought to China, it will definitely be explosive.
Moreover, the country is his territory after all, and there are people who can help in all aspects, so there will be no problems in following the procedures.
But Ji Feng also had to consider that if the shutdown suddenly ended, the losses would be huge.
"But I can let the people in China start to prepare slowly. If it doesn't end here, then we will start the China plan. Now, let's finish the charity match here first!" Ji Feng thought for a while and made a decision.
"OK! It won't be too late. I'll start making preparations now." After the discussion, James left in a hurry.
This is just the most basic plan. It will be expanded to a detailed plan later and a venue will need to be found. This is a big problem. After all, the NBA is currently closed and many good arenas are unavailable. In addition to venue and time, Inviting stars, promoting, selling tickets, etc. are all very troublesome. The time is only half a month, so we really can't waste a second.
But these are not things that Ji Feng has to worry about. Now he only needs to listen to the reports every day. If there are any difficulties, he can solve them. So his life has once again returned to the state of training every day.
But this time is different. In the past half month, many media have been surprised to find that familiar stars appear at the door of Ji Feng's mansion every day. For example, on the night of Ji Feng's decision, Big Shark arrived in his Ferrari. Ji Feng's house, God knows how he managed to fit in with his figure.
In addition to O'Neal, reporters also discovered that on the same day, DeRozan, Paul George, Cousins, Holiday and other generals under Ji Feng also appeared one after another. At first, they thought it was just Ji Feng's company taking advantage of the holiday to come to Ji Feng. Let's do some team building here. After all, it's really boring during the lockout period. As for O'Neal, he's just here to join in the fun.
However, the next day, the two All-Stars in the same class as Ji Feng, Durant and Horford, came here one after another, followed by Nash, and the San Antonio Three Musketeers, Duncan, Parker, Ginobili, and the Wolf King Garnett. , which made the reporter squatting at Ji Feng's door smell something unusual.
Kobe Bryant, the Gasol brothers, and Conley also came to Ji Feng's mansion on the third day. For a while, Ji Fengnuo's mansion was bustling with people.
"So many superstars and players are gathered here..."
"Are you going to rebel??!!"
"Ahem, you made a mistake, come again!"
"With so many players gathered here, are they going to discuss the lockout? Are they going to force the palace??!!!" Some reporters immediately mentally completed a series of up to 4 million words, which can be filmed for 58 episodes. Spy drama.
Subsequently, various media also reported one after another. For a time, the whole world knew that twenty or thirty players had gathered at Ji Feng's home, and the purpose became more and more outrageous. In the end, there was even an unscrupulous tabloid YY. Ji Feng was trying to force the president to resign. , he wants to be the president himself!
"I want to be a shitty CEO!!!" Ji Feng almost spit out his tea when he saw this news. I have to say that these reporters are really awesome. They dare to publish such nonsense news. The most outrageous thing is that Some people believe it!
What Ji Feng didn't know was that after the news was released, Stern smoked three cigarettes in a row in the league president's office... No matter what Ji Feng was going to do, this battle was really scary.
"Yeah, that's right, what's the point of the president? How can it be as refreshing as playing ball!" Curry nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, then picked up the newspaper and read it with gusto. Don't tell me, what is written is really like this. , it’s good to be literate, black can be written in white.
"Stop reading, I'll give you my mother's website another day. The people there write much better than they do." Ji Feng glanced sideways at Curry.
These days, these guys come to my place to discuss the charity match and to train together. After all, the training camp is closed and the arena is not allowed to be used, which has a great impact on preparations for the new season.
The players who came here are all players who are basically sure that they will have time to participate. There are still some players who have not yet decided. They will have to wait until the specific date is set before they can decide. However, the basic problem is not big. Look at the lineup gathered here by Ji Feng. Not coming is not Ji Feng's loss.
At this time, James finally called!
"OK, finally something has been done." Ji Feng put down the phone and was a little excited. Half a month later, the matter was finally done!
The 2011 All-Star Charity Game, well, that's what it's called. There will be three games in total, lasting four days. The venue is in Los Angeles. The venue has been coordinated and the time is set for October 1st!
As for the competition format, it is modeled after the All-Star competition format. The first day is divided into red and blue teams. Each team has 10 people. The team members are composed of celebrities and stars from all walks of life. The second day is various performances and supernova competitions. The third day It's the main event, with all the superstars getting ready to fight with real swords and guns!
As for the detailed stuff, whether you understand it or not, just read it and you’re done~!
After learning that the matter was settled, publicity began to unfold simultaneously. So on September 17, while everyone was still waiting for the outcome of the negotiations, a piece of blockbuster news appeared on the front pages of major media!
"The 2011 All-Star Charity Game is about to begin!"
At first, many fans thought this was a gimmick. After all, for such a long time, many people who had no food to eat made money through this. In the two months of the shutdown, no less than 6 charity matches were held, and everyone was not surprised.
But then, the lineup was revealed and completely shocked the fans...
Ji Feng, Kobe Bryant, Garnett, Duncan, Gasol, Nowitzki, Iverson, Durant... All-star names appear for free, and the newcomers are also full of surprises. What, Curry , Harden, Westbrook, Cousins and even the three No. 1 picks in Rose, Wall, and Griffin...
As for the guests, that is even more exaggerated. Not to mention Bieber, Avril Lavigne, there are even various super models and catwalks. This is simply heaven!
"You call this a charity match???" Many fans couldn't speak.
So on the 19th, when the game tickets went online, in 10 minutes, just 10 minutes, a total of 60,000 tickets for the three days were sold out. This was still 2011. In a few years, it is estimated that not many will be used. Ten seconds, maybe.
