After Jim Buss said what he said, the entire Lakers board of directors did not immediately agree.
Senior consultant Kurt said: "First of all, because of stupid Jenny's wrong decision, Wang Yi has a big prejudice against the Lakers, so even if we pursue him, the probability of getting him is very small."
"And if we prepare to chase him now, it will make Arthur feel very uncomfortable, which will cause turmoil in the entire team."
Jim said: "It was Jenny who originally traded Wang Yi out. Now that Jenny has resigned, I think as long as we have absolute sincerity, Wang Yi will definitely come back."
Then Kurt continued: "What if he is determined not to come back?"
"Whether Wang Yi will come back depends on how sincere we are. Just imagine, if Wang Yi comes to the Lakers, what huge commercial value it will bring, so I think we, the Lakers, should show all our sincerity."
"For Wang Yi, even if Arthur has to leave the team, we will not hesitate."
The board members were somewhat silent after hearing this.
If this is known to Arthur, then Arthur will definitely feel very unhappy. Maybe he will leave the Lakers this summer. If Arthur leaves the Lakers, then the entire Lakers team will definitely be miserable in the past two years.
Finally Jim Bass said, "Let's just take a vote."
As he spoke, he raised his hand first.
Then there's LeBron James.
Then more than 20 board members raised their hands.
Jim Buss asked Nicole at this time: "Ms. Nicole, I would like to take the liberty to ask whether Wang Yi has mentioned the possibility of returning to the Lakers, if we are absolutely sincere."
Nicole shrugged and shook his head: "Sorry, I don't know about this, and I won't interfere with his decision. When his contract expires in two years, it's up to him which team he wants to go to."
Jim nodded and then said: "No matter what his intentions are, in short, the only thing we have to do in the past two years is to pursue Wang Yi with all our strength. Now that everyone has voted to approve it, we will start to formulate detailed plans for implementation.
Bar."
The meeting dispersed after two hours.
Everyone else left, except Jim Bass and Kurt.
Kurt asked Jim Bass: "Do you really want to go after Wang?"
Jim Bass said with a smile: "I just wanted to show our sincerity in front of Nicole. As for whether to implement this plan, we have to take it step by step."
Kurt and his wife Linda looked at each other, thinking that Jim had grown from the playboy to an old fox over the years.
In fact, Jim Bass has grown a lot during the years he has been managing the NBDL team. He has put away his temper and is no longer a playboy. And his once playboy life has greatly affected him in all aspects such as knowing people.
It played a certain promoting role.
Seeing Nicole present today, he had already conceived such a plan in his mind and had to vote to pursue Wang Yi.
In this way, Nicole could go back and mention it to Wang Yi intentionally or unintentionally. As long as Wang Yi reveals a little bit of such plans, the Lakers will pursue it with all their strength.
If Wang Yi had no such intention, then he would at least leave a good impression on Wang Yi.
At 12 o'clock at noon that day, the Lakers officially announced this decision.
"Lakers CEO Jeanie Buss has resigned due to physical discomfort. Jim Buss will take over as CEO of the Lakers. Jim Buss will inherit the legacy of Buss and devote himself to building the Lakers into the most successful team in the NBA."
As soon as this official announcement came out, all fools knew that leaving the company due to illness was just an excuse.
The Lakers were beaten 4-0 by the Kings the day before, and CEO Jeanie Buss resigned due to illness on the second day. Is it such a coincidence that she fell ill?
That morning, when Wang Yi received this news, a reporter came over after hearing the news and conducted an exclusive interview with Wang Yi.
This reporter is none other than the great NBA reporter Wo Shen.
Wo Shen also has some skills, and he is afraid that Wang Yi will refuse his exclusive interview.
As we all know, Wang Yi hates being disturbed by reporters in private.
Finally Wo Shen contacted Yao Ming and O'Neal and asked Yao Ming and O'Neal to call Wang Yi.
Wang Yi doesn’t have to give other people’s face, but he still has to give it to Yao Ming and O’Neal.
After all, Yao Ming and O'Neal have helped me a lot.
Their interview was arranged on the lake in front of Wang Yi's home.
Wang Yi was sitting on a small boat with his two children playing, when Wo Shen arrived, and Wang Yi took the opportunity to invite him to the boat.
So Wo Shen had to get on the boat.
Wang Yi joked: "If you get on my pirate ship, you will never be able to do it again in your life."
Wo Shen didn't quite understand this.
He also knew that Wang Yi liked to get straight to the point, so he went straight to the point, took out the recorder, asked his assistant to set up the camera on the boat, and then began to interview Wang Yi.
"Wang, we all know that you were traded away from the Lakers by Jeanie Buss. Many people say that you have grudges against Jeanie Buss and the Lakers. Is that right?"
Wang Yi thought for a while and replied: "I can't talk about resentment. At most, I am just a little unhappy."
As she spoke, Wang Shiying leaned over to stir up the water in the lake. Wang Yi reached out and gently pulled her shoulders to prevent her from falling.
Seeing this, Wang Shiyu also leaned out to stir up the water in the lake. Wang Yi had no choice but to grab him with his other hand.
Wo Shen looked at the two cute children and smiled knowingly.
He then asked: "What do you think about Jeanie Buss leaving the Lakers?"
Wang Yi shrugged and replied: "I don't have any opinion about her. Whether she leaves the Lakers or not has nothing to do with me. This is the internal decision of the Lakers and the Buss family."
Wo Shen was a little surprised: "Aren't your words a bit too official?"
Wang Yi nodded: "It is indeed a bit official, but this is what I really think in my heart right now."
Wo Shen asked Wang Yi another question: "Now that Jenny Buss has left the Lakers management, will you still beat the Lakers as hard as this year when you meet them in the future?"
"Of course."
Wang Yi replied: "In fact, I want to beat any team I see, and I can beat them."
When Wo Shen heard Wang Yi's domineering answer, he burst into laughter: "This is the most domineering answer I have ever heard."
He then asked: "Is it possible for you to... I mean even remotely possible that you will go to the Lakers in two years? After all, Jeanie Buss has left the Lakers."
