[Speechless, the previous chapter has been reviewed again. Dear book friends, I’m really sorry. I’ll read the previous chapter after it passes review.】
After all, O'Neal knows more about Chinese culture. He said that Dugu Qiufei spoke in Chinese.
Jordan was confused.
O'Neill explained:
"Dugu Qiufei is a very strong swordsman. He is so strong that he cannot find any opponent. In the end, he is too bored and lonely, and can only live in seclusion in the mountains, with a big bird as his company all day long. His name means too much.
Strong, but lonely because he can't find an opponent, he only wants a defeat in his life, but he can't get it."
Jordan nodded: "Yes, it's Dugu Qiufei."
Jordan then continued: "Actually, at the beginning of this season, when Wang Yi was being interviewed, I remembered to ask him which team he would choose to go to after this season. He said at that time that his choice would definitely make people happy.
Everyone was shocked. Is everyone shocked now?"
When O'Neal heard this, he suddenly realized: "It turns out that this guy had already planned to retire at the beginning of the season."
Jordan went on to say: "And Wang Yi has made bets with people many times, all of which are related to his career. This is not just because he is confident enough. In his heart, he even hopes that someone can beat him and let him retire. Because,
For him, having no opponents in the professional arena is the most boring thing."
O'Neill nodded.
Then asked Jordan another question:
"When you say this, I seem to be able to understand your 180-degree change in attitude in the last finals. You said that Wang Yi must win 4 more rings to surpass you. In fact, you had already guessed that Wang Yi was going to retire.
, so you deliberately said this to provoke Wang Yi. He couldn’t find an opponent, so you made yourself Wang Yi’s opponent.”
Jordan smiled bitterly: "It's a pity that this guy is not impressed at all, or he has surpassed me in historical status and he no longer regards me as an opponent."
O'Neill was a little sad when he heard this:
"So, it's really boring to not be able to find an opponent, and it's really boring for an adult to play with a group of kids every day. But it's somewhat regrettable that such a talented guy retires like this."
Jordan nodded: "So American fans think they forced Wang Yi to retire. In fact, Wang Yi retired because he couldn't find an opponent and was bored."
"And what I'm worried about now is the impact of Wang Yi's retirement. After he retires, the Kings' stock price will plummet. This is inevitable. It is also inevitable that the stock prices of companies that have signed contracts with him will plummet."
O'Neal nodded: "Within 24 hours when you retired, the Dow Jones index dropped by 125 points. But less than 20 hours after Wang Yi retired, the index has dropped by 155 points."
Jordan nodded.
Then he said:
"But that's only one aspect."
"The NBA was most affected after he retired. Ratings dropped and the team's market value was greatly affected. This is all normal."
"But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that because the NBA is affected, it will cause a chain reaction, and all aspects of the U.S. economy will be affected. If the economy is affected, the number of unemployed people will inevitably increase; as the number of unemployed people increases, crime laws will
It will also increase.”
It sounds ridiculous for a player to retire and have such a huge impact.
But this is not alarmist.
When Jordan retired, these things really happened.
"So when a player like Wang Yi, who has such a huge influence around the world, suddenly retires, the shock caused by him is very scary."
"Sadly, we Americans now think that they forced Wang Yi to retire. They won, and they all sang and danced and celebrated. In fact, they lost, and they will probably lose miserably."
When O'Neal heard this, he was silent for a moment: "The impact of his retirement will probably be the same as your retirement."
Jordan shook his head: "No, when I retired for the first time, the NBA's global influence was not as big as it is now, and I didn't have as many fans as Wang Yi."
"Now Wang Yi has hundreds of millions of fans around the world, which is much more than the number of fans around the world at that time. And now that the Internet is developed, the impact of Wang Yi's retirement is probably greater than it was at that time.
Much more.”
When O'Neill heard this, he was silent for a moment.
Then asked Jordan: "Don't we still have Michael Arthur in the United States? Will his sudden emergence make up for Wang Yi's shortcomings in retirement?"
Jordan laughed out loud after hearing this and asked O'Neal:
"what you think?"
O'Neill also laughed, shook his head directly, and stopped talking about this topic.
Because there is no point in talking about this topic at all.
Are Michael Arthur and Wang Yi even remotely comparable?
At the end of the show, O'Neal asked Jordan: "So do you think Wang Yi will come back?"
Jordan did not answer directly.
Instead, he said to O'Neal: "You and Wang Yi have a much better relationship than me and him. If you know the news that she is coming back, please inform me immediately."
These words of Jordan also caused a certain response in the United States.
But now these fanatical Americans mostly criticize Jordan for these words.
"Michael is so confused. It's just a player retiring. What impact will it have?"
"We have a talented player like King Arthur, why should we go to that Chinese player?"
"Although I like Michael, what he said today disgusts me. I hope he takes it back."
"The earth will still rotate without anyone, and the NBA will be fine without any player. Let alone a Chinese."
And while these people were talking, the stocks of all 30 NBA teams were already in the red.
There are some differences between U.S. stocks and China's stocks. In China, red means rising and green means falling, while in the United States, it's just the opposite.
The red streak across the board represents an across-the-board decline in the stock prices of all 30 teams.
This is just the impact of Wang Yi’s retirement just one day ago.
In the following days, the stocks of these 30 teams continued to fall every day.
A drop of more than 3%.
The shares of American brands that cooperate with Wang Yi are also falling by about 3% every day.
And all of this is reflected in the Dow Jones Index.
The Dow Jones Index is the oldest stock index in the world, and its full name is the Stock Price Average Index.
It is the most influential and widely used stock price index in the world.
It takes some representative company stocks listed on the New York Stock Exchange as the compilation object and consists of four stock price average indexes.
A rise in the Dow means these stock prices are moving higher overall.
A decline means that the stock price has fallen as a whole.
In the past few days, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has fallen daily.
The decline is above 170 points every day.
This made American brands that had cooperated with Wang Yi panic.
Even those brands that have not cooperated with Wang Yi are a little panicked.
Because it reminds them of Jordan's retirement, the economic setback, and the stock market shock.
James told Wang Yi this, and Wang Yi simply replied: "Let the bullets fly for a while."
