Chapter 40 Convince Alexander, no worries!
There was a lot of doubts, as if I was back when I first traded Griffin.
The fans were like they had lost their memory, forgot about the Rockets' recent victory in Liaison, and once again pointed their finger at Chen Fei.
That night, the entry #Shen Fei's Exit get out of class# hit the hot search on Twitter.
The momentum was so great that it even alarmed the Rockets' senior management.
Alexander, the boss who was originally planning to become a hand-off manager, was also a little shocked after reading the popular comments online.
The last time he chatted with Shen Fei was three months ago.
That day, Alexander did not try to keep Adelman, but entrusted the team to Chen Fei.
"I remember telling him at that time that this season is a transitional season, and it's better to develop smoothly. Why do he have so many moves?"
Yali Shengda was puzzled and immediately sent a text message to Chen Fei, inviting him to come to his home tomorrow.
Chen Fei didn't care much about the boss's summons, and after simply agreeing, he stopped thinking about it.
He knew very well that what he was doing now was not what Alexander expected.
But for the sake of the future, Chen Fei was ready to confront the boss after the system appeared.
After all, if you can't win this season, the system will leave him.
And Chen Fei is another self-aware person.
He knew that he was not a basketball major, and his understanding of NBA was that of enthusiasts, which was far inferior to those professional managers who had been in the industry for many years.
Apart from the system, Chen Fei’s only advantage is to understand the development of NBA in the next few years.
He knows which players are Qianlong in the Yuan, and will soon rise, and also knows which players are strong outside and are about to fall from the altar.
But relying solely on the "prophet" cannot keep Chen Fei invincible.
Especially in today's era of heroes' separatist rule and powerful people are competing for hegemony.
In other words, Chen Fei must keep the system, and he must win the championship this season!
It is inevitable to win the championship this season and make drastic changes to the lineup.
Even if this goes against the instructions of the team owner, Alexander.
At tomorrow's meeting, Chen Fei planned to talk about his thoughts openly and honestly.
Asian youth have confidence to convince Alexander and help him win the championship together.
............
The next day, Chen Fei drove to Alexander's residence.
Alexander, with white hair, smiled and led Chen Fei into the room.
The two sat on the luxurious sofa and the servants served them freshly brewed coffee.
"How about it, are you still getting used to working for the past few months?"
Alexander asked with a laugh.
"It's not bad. Although it's a bit hard, I'm not so tired when I see the team getting better."
Chen Fei said lightly.
In his previous life, he was a big shot in the business world and had never worked for him for many years.
But Chen Fei, who has experience as a superior, knows very well how to deal with his superiors.
Simply put, it means that you must show your abilities, but you cannot express yourself too easily.
"Thank you for your hard work. At a young age, you have such a great responsibility on your shoulders."
"Your signings have indeed given me a lot of surprises."
"But I remember... three months ago, when we were chatting, I told you the team's goals for this year?"
Alexander still had a smile on his face, but his tone was no longer as kind as before.
"I remember everything you said before."
"All my current operations are indeed contrary to what you mean."
Chen Fei was neither humble nor arrogant, and said in a very plain tone.
When Alexander heard these two sentences, his eyebrows stood up and he looked at the Asian young man with an incredible look on his face.
[Good guy, do you say so lightly when you go against me?]
"But what if I say...I can lead the Rockets to the championship?"
Chen Fei asked suddenly.
"Win the championship?" Alexander was stunned when he heard this, and then said with a smile: "I heard that you held a high-level meeting on the first day of your tenure and announced that there is only one goal for this season, which is to win the championship?"
"Yes, I'll win this season."
Chen Fei repeated solemnly, saying word by word.
Alexander shook his head and said, "Ask him," he said:
"You have been here for three months. You must have had a lot of contact with Yao Ming, right?"
"His body can no longer go back."
"I have communicated with the top orthopedic doctors in the United States. Yao Ming's feet can no longer withstand too much high-intensity confrontation."
"In other words, our core player of the Rockets has fallen from the altar."
Speaking of this, the elderly Alexander looked gloomy.
What he said is that the Rockets' championship window has been closed and they have to enter the reconstruction period.
"What if I say, can I fully recover from Yao Ming's injury? And so does McGrady."
Chen Fei said seriously.
Alexander was stunned when he heard this, looking at Chen Fei with an incredible look on his face: "Are you serious?"
"Well, my hometown - China, has a special treatment method."
"The specific treatment method is inconvenient to say more, but I can assure you that both of them can return to their peak strength."
"What I need now is...you stand behind me and support me!"
Chen Fei looked at Alexander's eyes and made his own demands.
"I can guarantee that the Rockets will win the championship this season."
The young Asian man supported his hands on the table, and his upper body suddenly approached Alexander.
Invade the safe distance of the negotiating object, and then express your views in a very oppressive tone...
Chen Fei, who had been in the business world for many years in his previous life, was so good at convinced that the other party agreed to his request!
"If I can't complete it, I will not only immediately resign from the position of Rockets' general manager, but I will also pay back the salary this year as much as possible. No, I will pay back 10 times!"
Chen Fei struck while the iron was hot and issued a military order.
Alexander looked at the serious young man in front of him, pondered for a long time, and finally nodded slowly.
"Oh, I'm old and don't have the courage of you young people."
"You can let go, Chen Fei. When you need my help, just let me know."
"But I have to look at the final result. If I can't win the championship, just do what you said."
After saying that, Alexander stood up from the sofa and turned around and left.
Chen Fei smiled slightly and left the boss's mansion with satisfaction.
He didn't care about the rumors on the Internet.
Chen Fei roughly estimated that 80% of the people who hacked him now are Rockets fans.
Chen Fei knows the nature of fans' urine.
In the future, as long as the Rockets achieve excellent results, these people will not only stop attacking, but will also become their own loyal fans.
The remaining 20% are unreasonable black spots.
Chen Fei was too lazy to pay attention to Heizi.
............
Meanwhile, the other end of the city.
A parting scene is taking place in the Rockets' training hall.
Jordan Hill and Ismail Smith have finished packing their luggage in the locker room and are now saying their final farewell to their teammates.
Smith's eyes were shining with tears, and he reluctantly hugged his teammates one by one.
Jordan Hill looked unhappy.
After the game last night, he received an exclusive interview with the media for the first time in his career.
It is no exaggeration to describe Hill's state at that time with high spirits.
But when he boarded the team bus with his teammates, the agent called and told Hill that he was traded.
[???]
[I have just played my best competitive state in two years. Shouldn’t the team treat me as a treasure?]
[How come I sold me instead?]
