Stern almost let him escape. Fortunately, Michael Jordan called Stern in advance and asked about his current location. Finally, he found Stern near the parking lot, who was about to return to the New York League headquarters.

"Oh, Michael, are you in trouble?!"

Stern smiled at Michael Jordan, who was not kind to the audience, but he just smiled happily. Now Michael Jordan is a treasure of the NBA to the outside world. It can be said that as long as Michael Jordan is in the league for one day, the NBA's ratings in the United States will rise sharply, and this is all money!

The cars coming and going in the parking lot are not a big deal. Besides, this matter must be kept confidential. If Bruce hadn't encouraged him to find Stern, he would have really wanted to keep this matter in his stomach and not let anyone know.

"David, are you convenient?! I have something to tell you." Michael Jordan glanced at Xiao Bald Head behind Stern and said.

Stern also felt that Michael Jordan's expression was not right. I'm afraid something was wrong. Didn't he give you the All-Star MVP trophy, or was there anything else?!

"Michael, is it important? Adam is not an outsider and you can just say it."

"This matter is very important, David, I need to find a quieter environment."

Michael Jordan told Sternming directly that things must be very important, so important that you can only know the rest. You can do whatever you want.

"Okay, Michael, I'll treat you to a meal. It's almost noon. How about we go to the Pier W restaurant near Cleveland Airport?!"

Stern was hungry too. His original idea was to eat some airplane meal on a plane back to New York, and he would just put his stomach in half a day, but Michael Jordan's arrival disrupted his plan.

Now we can only invite us, the "global superstar", to dinner. By the way, this is considered a honor.

"Okay, how could I refuse to treat you to a meal?!" Michael Jordan and Stern had a good relationship. You should know that his current 30 million contract was made by Stern. If you want to say that Michael Jordan is very grateful to Stern. Without Stern, there would be no today.

He said that he was Stern who grew up all the way. When he entered the league, he was the first year Stern was in charge of the NBA. Let's put it this way, he is now completely tied to Stern, both losses and prosper.

"Adam, you go back to the Alliance headquarters first, remember to get things done!"

Stern decided to send his assistant Adam away. There must be something important about Michael Jordan finding him, and he cannot announce it to the public. It is not a big deal for Adam to stay by his side. It is better to ask him to go back early to deal with Kobe's affairs.

This All-Star is still very successful. Except for Kobe's incident that made him feel a little angry, everyone else is still very satisfied. This is also the reason why he is eager to return to his headquarters in New York. He must investigate the truth of the matter as soon as possible to give Bruce a convincing situation.

There is another thing he needs to deal with personally.

"Okay, CEO!" Xiao Bald Head glanced at Michael Jordan and said to Stern before turning around and leaving.

It’s not that Xiao Bald is resentful of Michael Jordan for losing his face. Besides, he can’t resent. If he gets to the top, Michael Jordan will retire long ago, and even if he does not have to deal with it, he will not be able to deal with it!

At his level, he still knows who can't afford to offend him now. Michael Jordan is definitely the kind of person who can't afford to offend him. Even Stern, the president of the league, personally escorted him and created a "special case". He can deal with such a person now.

"Let's go, Michael!"

After Stern finished speaking, he took Michael Jordan away and walked directly towards the Pier W restaurant.

...

A small city like Cleveland must have been very backward in the 1990s. How far is it?

For example, the level of third-tier cities in China was much higher than that of Cleveland at that time. I mean the overall strength. Others are also mentioned. After all, there were hotels, casinos, restaurants, etc. in the United States at that time, and entertainment venues such as restaurants, nightclubs and other entertainment venues in China.

The Pier W restaurant Stern and Michael Jordan were going to was still relatively backward at the time, but this restaurant is close to the airport and is backed by the natural scenery of Lake Erie. You can see the beautiful Lake Erie during the day, and the night view of Cleveland at night makes people feel a pleasant surprise!

Finally, Stern and Michael Jordan found a place with few windows and a slightly hidden environment.

No matter where a celebrity like Michael Jordan goes, there will definitely be paparazzi chasing him. But this time, because of the special incident, Michael Jordan had to change his equipment, especially with sunglasses and a mask. Even if Master Pi, who is close to him, cannot recognize him, even if he stands in front of him, he will not recognize him, let alone others.

The waiter in the restaurant recognized Michael Jordan, who had removed his mask and sunglasses, and was shocked. There was no way Michael Jordan could only give a tip and a signature to make the waiter shut up completely.

"Michael, just tell me what you have!"

"Is it the expiration of the contract with the Bulls?!"

"You want to renew your contract with the Bulls again?!"

After leaving the menu, waiter Stern asked directly.

In fact, Stern had more or less speculations in his mind on the road. Why Michael Jordan came to find him? It was undoubtedly because the contract was about to arrive, and it must be a contract matter.

Stern is quite familiar with this. Just a 30 million-year contract, not to mention that the Bulls boss Jerry Reinsdorf trembled when he opened a check, even if the bosses of other teams opened it, it would be the same.

Good guy, 30 million is only a year, and he only dares to open it every year, so Michael Jordan is time to renew his contract. If he buys this price again, I don’t know if Jerry Reinsdorf can still bear it.

Michael Jordan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Stern to be thinking about this. In fact, this matter was not a problem at all. If he did not renew the sign, he would lose Jerry Reinsdorf himself. Even if he was one year older, he was worth more than 30 million yuan. The Knicks' check was still open to him. It can be said that he is basically not worried about not being able to play the ball now, but he just promised Phil Jackson that he had to do it.

"This is just a part of it. I personally am willing to renew this contract with the Bulls."

Stern can't know about Phil Jackson for the time being, nor can he let Stern know that he and Phil Jackson will only stay in Chicago for one year.

Some things can be said in advance and some things cannot be known to anyone.

"It's not that Jeff's idiot is unwilling to renew your contract with you, right?"

Stern nodded, if Michael Jordan plays until retirement from the Bulls, it will definitely be a good story in the league, and Stern is happy to see it.
