NBA Tyrant

On the morning of November 12th, the President's Office of the Alliance

, "Well done, Jackson!

"Okay, President, then I'll get busy first!" Jackson glanced at Xiao Hua and frowned slightly.

Xiao Hua's work report is also over, why is he still sitting here? The president didn't let him leave, but directly asked me to leave, as if he was deliberately trying to break me away, is there any secret matter between the president and Xiao Hua to explain?

Seeing Jackson walk out of the office, Stern looked at Xiao Hua coldly.

"I read the findings you gave me about Howard's age fraud!" Stern

took the papers from his desk and flipped them open.

This document, at the beginning, locked the source of the rumors about the incident in the media in Charlotte.

Because after the Bobcats Okafor lost to the Magic team Howard, in the question session of the post-game press conference, he sighed that Howard's strength made him feel like O'Neal at the peak of his 28-year-old year, dominating the interior and being unmatched.

After that, some small media in Charlotte spread rumors about Howard's age, stirred up the topic, and won the attention of the audience.

It wasn't until Howard and Adidas signed a super sky-high endorsement contract that the topic of age fraud suddenly broke out, and it has been affecting until now.

The reason for the outbreak of popularity, Xiao Hua only said in the investigation that after Howard got the sky-high contract, it caused a sensation in the United States, and the media also began to pay attention to the news around Howard, so the topic of age fraud became popular.

"Xiao Hua, is this all the result of your investigation?" Stern

looked at Xiao Hua coldly again.

"Uh... I... It's true that I've only found out these for the time being!"

Xiao Hua panicked in his heart, and Stern's gaze seemed to be able to see through everything, which made Xiao Hua's heart tighten, could it be that the president knew something

? "I! ask again! It's that simple? There is no one behind the scenes?"

Stern accentuated his tone and stretched out his index finger to point at the investigation document on the table.

"President..."Xiao Hua gritted his teeth secretly in his heart, and was about to reply to Stern, but was interrupted by Stern.

Although he broke out in a cold sweat, Xiao Hua still planned to stick to his findings.

"I want you to think it through before answering me!" Stern

leaned back in his chair and relaxed himself, but his eyes looked down at Xiao Hua who was looking down even more sharply.

Facing the pressure of Stern's long-term high position, Xiao Hua subconsciously clenched his hands.

Xiao Hua has already reacted, and the president seems to know it, and the president not only arranged for himself to investigate this matter, but must have also arranged for others.

Moreover, the man had already told the president the ins and outs, so when he saw the results of his investigation, the president was very dissatisfied, and now he asked himself, he should be giving himself a chance.

"President, I'm sorry that the results of this survey, actually... The real driving force behind this age rumor incident is the Nike-controlled media team, who first ...... Then

I ...... "I contacted the Nike team, and they gave me 1 million and promised to unconditionally sponsor the training camps and activities of the alliance this year, so... I'm going to keep it a secret.

After Xiao Hua thought it clearly, he lowered his head and truthfully told Stern the real result and his bribery and selfishness.

"Xiao Hua, Xiao Hua!"

Stern shook his head a little disappointed.

"You know, as a high-level member of the alliance, you not only have to think about doing your job well, but also control public opinion, and today I will let you see how I do it, and,"

Stern stood up, walked to the window, and looked into the distance.

"The alliance must be in their own hands, not capital, as for the endorsement competition of sports brands like Nike and Adidas, let them compete by themselves, the more fierce their competition, the better for the alliance!" Stern

turned his head sideways and looked at Xiao Hua.

"Including advertising space, TV rights, there must be competition, we just need to do a good balance, to avoid the situation of a monopoly formed by a monopoly, remember! The league must always be in their own hands, for important stars, as long as it is not really bad in nature, we must deal with it in time to recover, cool down the incident, and transition it, just like the Eagle County incident is a good lesson.

After Stern finished speaking, he made a five-finger spread and then clenched his fist like Thanos.

Xiao Hua watched the majestic Stern being illuminated by the light outside the window, emitting a halo of light, and his eyes couldn't help but show adoration.

"Yes, I understand, President, thank you very much for your advice!" Xiao Hua's voice was full of respect.

One hour later, the league officially announced the authenticity of Howard's age, and pointed out that some of the media that spread rumors will be included in the blacklist, and reporters will not be allowed to enter the stadiums of each team for interviews for one year.

At the same time, some major media outlets have also begun to report on Howard's detailed timeline from birth to the present, cooperating with official channels to jointly confirm the official investigation results.

At this point, the Howard age rumor incident is final!

......

"Hey, Pelinka, what's the matter?" Howard didn't expect that his agent would call as soon as he finished training.

"Hey, Howard, just now the league officially confirmed your age to you, and now the big media are also clarifying it for you, have you seen it?"

"Uh-huh, no, I just finished training, I haven't watched the news yet, the league confirmed?hehe, it looks like I'm really getting the attention of that guy right now!"

Howard grinned when he heard Pelinka's words, and his heart was happy.

"Yes, that person is definitely paying attention to you, yesterday, suddenly contacted me and asked me about the investigation, I told him the results of the investigation with Adidas that was Nike's behind-the-scenes troublemaker, I didn't expect him to clarify for you today, and I don't know how he communicated with Nike, it turned out that the media that were crazy about rumors have all been taken off the shelves, haha!"

Pelinka is very happy, the rumor-mongering age matter is finally over, no need to make a big head.

"Oh, is Nike behind it!" Howard narrowed his eyes.

"Yes, it's Nike, oh, by the way, Kobe Bryant and the others should contact you, you pay attention to the sound of your phone, after all, tonight is going to play against your Magic team, he has always admired you! and said that you are welcome to come to the Purple Lakers in the future!"

Pelinka remembered Kobe's explanation and immediately reminded Howard.

"OK, I see!" Howard has long known Kobe's appreciation of himself from Pelinka.

"Also, Kobe Bryant and I will come to Orlando together, and when the time comes, we will have dinner together, we will meet and make friends, connect and connect, and maybe we can become brothers! At worst, it is good to be friends. For

now, Kobe and Howard are Pelinka's big customers, and Pelinka wants to let the two improve their relationship, not to mention more, at least they can be regarded as friends who know each other.

"Okay, no problem, Kobe Bryant will call later, and I will invite Kobe Bryant too.

Pelinka would never know that Howard's soul is now a fan of Kobe Bryant and the Lakers, and of course, Howard has no intention of affecting Kobe's brilliant career.

"Well, that's the best, by the way, I'll assign you an assistant or a small agent, after all, I'm often absent, and there is a helper by your side, I'm also relieved, if there is anything I can let him deal with the things around you!"

Pelinka thought that his focus was basically on Kobe, and he felt a little guilty in his heart.

"Hmm... Let's talk about it!"Let's talk about it when the time comes

!" "Okay!" "See you in the afternoon

!" "See you in the afternoon!"

......

"Hey, hello, is that Howard, I'm Kobe!" a deep, magnetic voice rang out of Howard's phone.

"Hey, hello, I'm Howard!" Howard's mouth curled up, and his left hand clenched into a fist excitedly.

Yes, that's right, this voice is definitely Kobe Bryant

!"Hey! Howard, you're really amazing, I've been paying attention from your first game to now, I think you're going to be a better center than O'Neal! You're no less physically gifted than that fat shark, and you have a projection, and your free throws are very accurate, you're definitely going to replace him as the No. 1 center!"

Kobe Bryant didn't hesitate to say a bunch of compliments to show his appreciation for Howard.

"Haha, thanks for the compliment, Kobe, I think you are also a very good point guard, and it is not an exaggeration to say that you are the number one quarterback in the league now, if you can get more honors, I think you are capable of hitting the god of basketball, Jordan!" Howard immediately replied to Kobe.

I didn't expect Kobe to brag about himself so much, and I was a little embarrassed, haha

, happy!"Haha, hopefully! Tonight is the game between our two teams, before the game, is it convenient to have a meal together?" Kobe Bryant was also very happy to see Howard recognize his strength, so he took the lead in sending out an invitation.

"Of course, I'm very convenient, I just thought about inviting Kobe Bryant! I didn't expect Kobe to have this idea too, by the way, Pelinka called me earlier and said that he would come together, and then the three of us would talk together? I also have some ideas I want to tell you.

Howard immediately agreed, and always had a plan in mind that he wanted the three of them to discuss it when they had dinner.

"Okay, okay, then it's decided, Howard, you book a restaurant first, Pelinka and I will contact you when we arrive! When the time comes, there should be nothing else, first?"

Kobe Bryant wondered if Howard had something to say to himself, but it was obviously inconvenient to talk about things on the phone, and now that the invitation was successful, he planned to end the call.

"Well, okay, goodbye!"

"Hmm!".
