Reborn in 2010, the AI in my mind is too powerful.
Chapter 274 Submitting an Application
The Warriors played very hard, but ultimately failed to win the game.
Curry's game-tying shot with 31 seconds left in the fourth quarter sent Oracle Arena into a frenzy. Neither side managed to score again, and the game ended in a tie in regulation time.
After entering overtime, the Warriors' stamina was clearly waning. Although the Lakers were also exhausted, Nash and Kobe relied on their experience to break through the Warriors' defense in the final moments.
勇士最终以115比118输给了湖人。科比拿了34分,库里全场拿下20分,7助攻。
After the game ended, Lacob didn't stand up. He looked at the disappointed players on the field with a complicated expression. After a moment of silence, he took off the team crest brooch from his left lapel and placed it on the table in front of him.
Chen Yiran glanced at the brooch and said, "Don't take the bet we just made seriously. I'll buy your shares for 900 million. Kirk doesn't need to leave, and I won't touch your ex-wife's trust fund. Just delegate the voting rights to me."
Lacob laughed and said, "Although I like basketball, I'm not really an expert. But I feel my son has a good eye. I actually don't quite believe Curry can still make it this far, but my son believes in him."
I'm very grateful to you for keeping Kirk on the team; he's given so much. Of course, I hope you trust him as much as I do.
We went to Los Angeles with Curry in April.
We consulted Dr. Richard Focke at the Southern California Orthopaedic Institute in Van Ness, who is one of the most renowned ankle surgeons in the United States.
Falker performed a minor surgery to remove scar tissue and debris from a procedure he had a year and a half ago in Charlotte. He said the internal structure was intact, with no structural damage.
I don't need to say anything about the 900 million price tag. You paid a premium, and I have nothing to complain about. Kirk stays, and you need to keep David Lee and Bogut for the next two years. Curry can't do without pick-and-rolls.
The permits for the new arena have been issued, piers 30 to 32, which is perfect, and it's also closer to your Silicon Valley.
Chen Yiran looked at Curry on the sidelines and smiled, saying, "Don't worry, I can say I believe in Curry more than anyone else in the world, more than you guys, more than him, even more than his father. The Warriors will definitely win the championship!"
Lacob glanced at Chen Yiran with surprise, then asked, "Are you a Curry fan?"
"A Curry fan for ten years!"
Lacob was even more surprised: "You don't seem to have graduated from Davidson College (the college Curry attended), do you?"
"Why can't I be a fan of Charlotte Christian College?"
Lacob laughed; he now believed Chen Yiran truly trusted Curry: "Get your people here to sign the contract with me. Let's get this settled quickly."
After saying that, Lacob nodded and left.
Olson waited until Lacob left before speaking: "So, now you can say the Warriors are your team?"
"Definitely, over 7% of the shares, absolute control."
Chen Yiran picked up her phone and called Ellison.
Ellison answered the phone with a laugh, "What, changed your mind? Not staying home for Christmas? Come fishing with me, my son and daughter are coming too. You're both young, you can chat a lot. They're both in the film industry. Who knows, they might even have a collaboration with Apple in the future."
"Um, forget it. Olsen's pregnant belly isn't really suitable for going on a yacht."
"We can go fishing by the river."
"Alright, alright, let's go over there. But I called to tell you some news: I beat the Warriors!"
There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, then Ellison chuckled: "Good job! Last time I tried to buy one but got robbed, so annoying."
"They didn't lose money; they doubled their profits."
"So what? Knowing your personality, you probably think this team can still improve, right? You've gotten back at me for what I did back then."
"Alright, see you at Christmas. Olsen and his family should be coming too, we can come together."
"No problem, the more the merrier. Lauren was originally going to bring the kids too, but the two little girls insisted on going to New York. Only Reed stayed because he had to go to school. Come to my house, let's go fishing and have a barbecue by my lake."
-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------
On December 24, Chen Yiran brought Olson's family to Ellison's estate in Woodside.
This place covers an area of 9 square meters. After purchasing it in 1995, Ellison spent nine years designing and building it. It exudes the style of a 16th-century Japanese imperial palace.
In the center of the estate, there is an artificial lake covering 1 square meters, complete with an artificial waterfall and a mist generator. Nearby are also several koi ponds, teeming with various colored koi.
Chen Yiran lay on the recliner and complained, "It was supposed to be a fishing trip, but it turned out to be a scam."
Ellison, dressed in a Japanese kimono, said, "Look at these fish, they're all meant to bring good luck! How could I let you catch them so easily?"
Chen Yiran glanced back and saw people chatting and laughing over there, still grilling meat.
Although the Olsen family is not as wealthy as the Ellisons, Chen Yiran, and Jobs' widow, they are still a family with considerable capital. They are all in the circle of the rich and have no problem communicating with each other.
Olsen's parents were also quite interesting; they showered Ellison's daughter, Megan Ellison, with concern, as if they wanted to find a wife for their son.
Chen Yiran whispered, "Are you sure you're not going to do anything about it? Your daughter might get scammed!"
Ellison said nonchalantly, "It's better if they've been tricked. I set up trusts for my son and daughter back in 1994, and I'm not going to worry about them for the rest of my life."
If I get scammed, I'll be incredibly lucky. Let me tell you, my daughter has found a girlfriend!
"Hey, that's normal, there are more and more of these happening these days."
Ellison said with great dissatisfaction, "It's not just about the girlfriend! The girlfriend she found is also very average-looking, and her figure is just so-so! What kind of taste does she have? It's so embarrassing to go out with her."
"...Oh, so you're complaining about that. Speaking of which, Olsen's brother seems alright. He's not very capable, but he has the family genes, and he's good-looking."
Ellison turned around and looked at him carefully: "Yeah, if this guy could become my son-in-law, I'd be incredibly lucky. I actually thought Reed was pretty good before, and given how good Steve Jobs and I are, I really hoped they could get together. But they're too close; they fight and bicker all the time, so there's absolutely no spark between them."
Alright, let's not talk about this annoying stuff. When will the Warriors get things sorted out?
"It's already been submitted and is going through the process; it'll be quick."
"Are you confident of winning the championship? I see your F1 team won the championship this year."
"It's hard to say, but I should be able to win a championship within two years. I'm considering changing coaches. The current coach could be a general manager or something, but he doesn't seem to be good at coaching."
Ellison stood up: "Okay, good luck then. I'll wait to go watch the game later. I'll go help my future son-in-law first. Isn't he a comic book artist? He's in the entertainment industry too, so they'll have something in common."
Christmas passed just like that, and Ellison ultimately didn't get what she wanted; it seemed her daughter was determined to go down a dead end.
A few days later, the NBA received a written transfer application from Warriors major shareholder Joe Lacob and other shareholders, both large and small.
This deal, which had been completely unexpected beforehand, caused an uproar in the league.
