【1104】 Getting better
The fresh release of the list of major rich people immediately made the famous super rich people the focus of the media, with their reports everywhere, and their huge portraits frequently appear in newspapers, magazines, websites and TV media.
These super rich people have mastered more than two-thirds of the world's wealth. Perhaps the wealth they increase in one day is a huge number that most ordinary people dare not expect in their entire lives.
Taking Xiao Feng as an example, Forbes magazine evaluated his net worth about US$53 billion, which is about US$13 billion higher than last year's assets, which means that Xiao Feng's average net worth is more than US$30 million per day, which is approximately RMB200 million.
With such a huge wealth, the every move of these super rich people is naturally the focus of media and public attention, especially at this special time, media reports are naturally overwhelming.
Compared with many super rich people living in simplicity, Xiao Feng, as an international basketball superstar, is exposed almost every day in the media spotlight, and he is taking the Lakers to compete in the NBA regular season.
Basically, Xiao Feng's figure appears in major media almost every day, and all kinds of information about him are overwhelming. He is becoming the most well-known public figure in the world with *******, **** and others.
Since the Forbes Rich List was released, the media that submitted interview applications to the Lakers' Public Relations Department are no longer limited to the sports circle, and many financial media and mainstream media have also joined in.
Last month, Xiao Feng just turned 31 years old. With the age of super rich people generally belonging to the post-60s, his youth and his experience of starting from scratch in the industry have given him more legendary colors.
For the media, Xiao Feng himself is a huge headline manufacturing machine. Being able to interview him means he has a large number of readers, audiences, and huge advertising fees.
In a sense, Xiao Feng's existence has supported many media practitioners. There are no less than 50 reporters who have been following and interviewing Xiao Feng all year round. Every time it comes a special moment, more media reporters will appear by his side.
Faced with the surging media reporters, Lakers General Manager Kupchek was naturally extremely happy. He arranged more media to participate in interviews based on the actual situation of the team, which is also an important way to expand the team's influence.
In fact, since Xiao Feng joined the Lakers and played in person, the Lakers have overwhelmed the other 29 NBA teams and became the most well-known team in the world. In the eyes of many overseas fans who have just come into contact with the NBA, the Lakers also mean the best team in the world, and this impression will be deeply rooted in people's minds.
With a boss like Xiao Feng and a star, the Lakers' external promotion work naturally became extremely easy, and a large number of media will report extensively on the Lakers every day.
Regarding the ranking and wealth on the Forbes rich list, Xiao Feng believed that these wealth would not actually be a kind of enjoyment, but more of it became pressure and burden.
The more wealth you have, the more responsibilities you need to take on!
"The more contributions to the increase of wealth must be placed on all the employees of Jinghu Group. It is precisely because of their unremitting efforts that the group's assets have increased dramatically, driving the increase in personal assets!" Facing the lens of China National Television Finance Channel, Xiao Feng talked freely and said: "'Jinghu Group' has always been committed to allowing employees and partners in the upstream and downstream industrial chains to live a more decent and dignified life. At this point, Jinghu Group has done a good job!"
Regarding Xiao Feng's rapid gain of wealth, few media and the public make inappropriate remarks. Perhaps this is inseparable from Xiao Feng's low-key and humble style and the good image he has established over the years.
After Xiao Feng's interview video was broadcast on the Economic Channel of China TV, it also aroused enthusiastic discussion among many viewers and netizens. Many people think this is a precursor to the year-end bonus of the "Jinghu Group"!
According to the data of the first three quarters of 2017 released by Jinghu Group, Jinghu Group is expected to achieve sales revenue of 160 billion rmb in 2017, and its profit reached an astonishing 50 billion rmb, which is approximately US$8 billion!
This is also an important reason why the outside world valued "Jinghu Group" more than US$80 billion. According to the practice of "Jinghu Group", once the profit increases steadily, the group's year-end bonus will make all employees welcome the Spring Festival.
For a company with only 60,000 employees, the per capita profit of nearly one million rmb is really an amazing number. Xiao Feng, the boss, is not stingy. It can be foreseeable that all employees of "Jinghu Group" can have a good New Year!
On the Internet, many netizens have conducted various analysis of the year-end bonuses and benefits of "Jinghu Group" over the years. While envious and jealous, they also involuntarily complain about their stingy style of their units.
There is an old saying that goes, "People are so angry that people are more popular." Comparing with the year-end reward of "Jinghu Group" can almost make most of the Chinese people very angry.
The employees of "Jinghu Group" have always been the objects of envy.
…………
The increasing media interviews and various passionate discussions on the Internet did not have much impact on Xiao Feng's life. He and he led the team to the NBA regular season step by step, and in his spare time they stayed at home to cook various delicacies for his family.
Of course, occasionally when Staples stayed in consecutive home games, Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao would take their children outdoors, Disneyland in Los Angeles, Marbury Beach and other places, leaving them with joy.
For the media, as long as they can photograph Xiao Feng's family from afar, they will have a certain amount of sales and advertising revenue. This is the huge news effect brought by the 'super rich + superstar'.
Xiao Feng's family and even Ping Ping An'an's two dolls have long been immune to the flash of media reporters. They even have a sense of lens when facing the camera, which makes the reporters sigh in secret.
I heard that Xiao Feng, Xu Mengyao, Nini and Yuer are both high-scoring members of Mensa Club. This situation is extremely rare even on a global scale. Now seeing Pingping Anan’s appearance makes reporters have this association.
However, the two little babies are still too young to conduct more detailed tests, and people still have no way of knowing the specific situation of the two children.
Life off the court did not stop the Lakers. Although the Lakers, which lacked Kobe, could not find a sense of ease in many games, they, with their strong strength, led the NBA league with a record of 28 wins and 4 losses, with a winning rate of nearly 90%.
After setting a record of NBA wins for two consecutive years, the Lakers have gradually formed the image of "Invincible Teacher" in the minds of fans and opponents, and their performance this season is still sharp.
Of course, in the absence of Kobe, if the Lakers want to win the game, they need to make greater efforts by the players. As the captain and the core of the organization, Xiao Feng has a great responsibility on his shoulders.
Now, the regular season has completed 40% of the schedule. While maintaining a high winning rate, the Lakers are gradually eliminating Kobe's huge influence and becoming a team that has been strengthening its adjustment.
When Kobe is on the court, he often arrives in the most critical fourth quarter. Kobe will basically take over the game. With a big heart, he will take the initiative to take on the task of the last shot. Other players need to open up the position for Kobe and get better shooting opportunities.
Kobe was awarded the title of "Iron King" in the two seasons after the injury, but both the media and the public were quite satisfied with Kobe's performance at a critical moment.
In terms of personal honor, James is even much better than Kobe in some places, but in the minds of many fans, media experts and industry insiders, Kobe, who dares to take action at critical moments, has a much better position and appeal than James.
No, James' "Fourth Quarter Habitual Falling Syndrome" lowered people's senses towards him by several percentage points. Some even believed that the two championship trophys in James' hand were won by holding Wade's thighs.
After Kobe retired, Xiao Feng did not want to fully expose his abilities in the regular season, so he left the game more to other teammates to solve, which is undoubtedly the best way to exercise.
Since the beginning of this season, everyone who started the five tigers has had the experience of investing in the winning goal. Zhou Qi and Towns on the bench performed quite well, and they dared to take action at critical moments and grew rapidly.
Perhaps the Lakers cannot break the best record of 75 wins and 7 losses this year, but the rapid growth of young players and the tacit cooperation of core players make the Lakers still stand out in the league.
…………
When the Lakers were invincible, Christmas was approaching quietly, and this would be Xiao Feng's third Christmas battle.
This year, the NBA League still arranged the Lakers' home game against the Cavaliers as the finale of the Christmas game. After all, the two teams were the opponents of last season's finals, and the game has many highlights.
After announcing his retirement on the 24th, the showdown between the two numbers became the biggest gimmick for the NBA. A week before this Christmas battle, the official NBA promotional video was released, with the focus being the showdown between Xiao Feng and James, although the positions of the two people do not overlap.
Because the Lakers won the championship for two consecutive seasons, the starlight of other players in the NBA league was dim, after Kobe retired, the NBA league had to start promoting a contest between the two numbers.
In the eyes of many fans and professionals, it is also the best chance for the Cavaliers to defeat the Lakers. After all, the lack of Kobe will give the Cavaliers' Big Three more chances of winning.
As for James himself, after returning in the Finals for four consecutive years, he was extremely eager to defeat the mountain that was overwhelmed by him and prove that he was still the best player in the entire league.
Kobe's retirement made James regret for life, because as a lifelong opponent, James has never defeated Kobe in the finals, which may become a stain on James' career.
Now the Lakers have no Kobe, and the Lakers' phenomenon is much worse than last season, which has allowed James and his teammates to see hope of defeating the Lakers and winning the Christmas battle.
Therefore, when entering the venue, James' magnesium powder spreading ceremony was very grand, and the on-site commentator at Staples Stadium was also very proud and said a lot of sensational words.
Standing in the center of the stadium and through the magnesium powder in the air, James saw the dense Lakers fans, which was of special significance to James.
Speaking of which, what James envies Kobe the most is that he plays in the Lakers as soon as he enters the NBA league. Being in a super city like Los Angeles is a major advantage in itself.
Although the atmosphere in the Quick Loan Stadium has always been good, the stands are just ordinary spectators, so it is not as bright as Staples Stadium!
In this year's Christmas battle, celebrities from Hollywood, European and American pop music, Asian and other entertainment circles gathered at the Staples Arena to watch how the Lakers led by Xiao Feng won the game.
In the past two years, with the continuous improvement of the Lakers' record, more and more celebrities have chosen to watch the game in the Staples Arena in order to show more faces in the media, which is a good intention!
After the game started, the Big Three led by James was working hard, but the facts often made them extremely collapse because they could not get close to the score.
Compared with the limitations of the Cavaliers' Big Three, the Lakers' full-blown tactics are particularly beautiful under Xiao Feng's superb organization. The smooth cooperation has won the cheers of the audience and the TV audience.
In this game, Xiao Feng scored 21 points, assisted and a large triple-double of 15, leading the team to defeat the visiting Cavaliers 117:105, winning the Christmas game.
Although the three Cavaliers led by James scored 86 points, the other Cavaliers performed mediocrely, which made James disappointed again.
It has to be said that after suffering ruthless blows from the Lakers, James even had some doubts about the future of the Cavaliers. After all, he has never been a firm person.
James has been in the NBA for 15 years now. Perhaps in another two years, as his physical fitness declines, his dominance on the court will be reduced. It will become more difficult to win the championship again!
Will we have to find a stronger team again next season to win the championship?
When this idea popped up in James' heart, his head seemed to have grown grass. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this method would be more secure.
Little did they know that the reason why James could not win praise comparable to Kobe's is perhaps inseparable from his indecisive personality!
As the saying goes, "Character determines destiny"! (To be continued.)
