Georgetown University successfully advanced to the top eight.
He would be playing against Marcus Canby's University of Mass. in this year's top eight.
At the same time.
NBA President David Stern flew to Great Xia and arrived at the CCTV building.
It was different from the first time he came to the Central Station building.
This time, David Stern finally did not have to wait too long in the cold wind.
It was now the end of March and almost April. The weather in Great Xia was still very mild.
"David, long time no see!"
Director Li, the director of CCTV, personally met David Stern.
In recent years, the NBA had developed rapidly in Great Xia.
The arrangement of recording the regular season playoffs and broadcasting the All-Star match could no longer satisfy the needs of the Great Xia fans.
The live broadcast of the NBA was basically something that had happened in the past few years.
"Li, actually, I came today with two big gifts.”
After David Stern exchanged pleasantries with Director Li, he took out a videotape from his folder.
This videotape recorded the scene of Mo Ran's massacre during the NCAA.
"This is…"
"Li, this is the video of our Eagle Nation University's NCAA basketball tournament.”
" You're not mistaken," Stern explained." The young man in the videotape is a player from Great Xia.”
"His name is Mo Ran, a native of Great Xia. He's a freshman at Georgetown University this year.”
"You rarely pay attention to NCAA events, so it's normal that you don't know about it.”
" So, I'm sure you didn't expect that Mo Ran did something earth-shattering in the NCAA…"
Following the television screen, the scenes of Mo Ran ruling the offense and defense were played one after another.
Midcap Ray Allen in the air.
Jamison in the big hat.
Air catch, dunking the defender.
The opening scene of the giants 'counterattack and dunk scores were played in turn.
As the video played, Stern was also introducing to Director Li what Mo Ran had done in the past six months in Georgetown.
Terrifying data, invincible battle results.
As well as the soaring talent show market.
"Li, according to the latest rookie forecast, Mo is at least in the top ten. You should know what this means.”
The president of the NBA had personally stated that Mo Ran would be a rookie in the top ten.
Even a fool knew what this meant.
"You mean, Mo Ran is very likely to become the first NBA player in Great Xia's history?”
Director Li was a little excited.
It was not only because Mo Ran's performance was very explosive, but also because he was both offensive and defensive.
It was because this monster-like player was actually a native of Great Xia!
This was the person who created the history of basketball in Great Xia!
More importantly…
If Mo Ran could enter the NBA.
Then, the NBA's development in Great Xia would also soar at a high speed.
The pie in the field of sports could grow bigger. How much profit would there be in it?
"Looking at it now, Mo Ran will definitely become the first player in the history of the NBA, or even the top draft pick.”
David Stern continued," So, on behalf of the NBA officials, I want to renegotiate with your CCTV about the live broadcast.”
It was different from the previous live broadcast plan.
This time, due to Mo Ran's appearance, David Stern proposed two live broadcast methods.
First, the NBA officials would give CCTV: Some of Mo Ran's team's matches were broadcasted live.
Of course, these matches were definitely popular.
On one hand, the NBA officials wanted to open the door to Great Xia's live streaming by broadcasting Mo Ran's matches.
On the other hand, the matches between some unpopular teams and Mo Ran would affect the viewership ratings, so there was no need for a live broadcast.
David Stern said that the live broadcast of the match related to Mo Ran would be given to CCTV for free.
Furthermore, the free contract period was as long as three years.
For three whole seasons, CCTV could broadcast Mo Ran's popular matches for free.
Of course, this part of the live broadcast had to be broadcast live. The Central TV Station could not cancel the live broadcast plan for that day.
The NBA was not stupid.
Giving out resources for free was to open up the market and also to guard against it.
The NBA officials naturally hoped that Mo Ran could make a name for himself in the NBA.
However, if Mo Ran did not make a name for himself in the NBA in the future…
According to the contract, CCTV would still broadcast the match between Mo Ran and the popular team.
With the performance of the other NBA stars, they would definitely be able to attract a wave of fans in Great Xia.
When the time came, they would be able to talk about the follow-up cooperation without Mo Ran.
In addition to the free live broadcast of some of Mo Ran's games, the NBA would also sell live streams of popular teams to CCTV.
For example, the Chicago Bulls had Michael Jordan.
This part was sold for a fee, but the price was much lower than those in Europe and the United States.
Mo Ran would be the main force, and Jordan would be the second in command.
The NBA officials were sincere in their desire to enter the Great Xia market.
"Yes…"
Director Li carefully looked at the contract prepared by the NBA officials."This matter is very important. It's not something I can decide alone.”
Even though he was the director of CCTV, Director Li knew this very well.
Even if he agreed with her wholeheartedly, the NBA contracts were basically free.
However, the NBA's live broadcast in Great Xia was not a small matter.
It was necessary to give a result after thinking about it more.
"It's okay. We can wait for the news before the start of next season.”
David Stern was not in a hurry.
The NBA had been developing in Great Xia for seven years, so there was no rush.
Now, the only thing that the CEO hoped for was: Mo Ran could go further in the NCAA.
This way, Mo Ran's influence would not be limited to the Eagle Kingdom. His name would definitely shake the basketball circle of Great Xia!
At that time, the NBA's live broadcast plan in Great Xia would be successful.
"By the way, David, can our CCTV play these videotapes?”
At the end of the conversation, Director Li thought of something."Firstly, I want to let the Great Xia fans know about Mo Ran's existence.”
"Secondly, I want to see how much impact Mo Ran can have on Great Xia's basketball circle.”
"Third, if the recording is good and Mo Ran's team can advance, we can try to broadcast Mo Ran's NCAA games first.”
"If the results of the NCAA live broadcast are ideal, the NBA live broadcast plan will definitely pass smoothly.”
He was testing the waters with the college league.
It was also for the sake of a better live broadcast of the NBA in the future.
At the same time, he could also open up the NCAA's market in Great Xia. Starting from university, he could pay attention to the future star players who would shake the NBA.
Perhaps it could also stimulate the atmosphere of school basketball in China.
One arrow, many birds!
Chief Li's move could be considered to reflect his view of the big picture as the director of the Central Television Station.
"Of course, no problem. You can use these videotapes for free.”
David Stern nodded.
"Regarding the live broadcast of the NCAA, I'll personally help you discuss it after we return to Eagle Country!”
Stern's brain worked quickly.
This time, Director Li was using his relationship with the NBA president to earn a wave of NCAA broadcasts and even live broadcast qualifications.
However, everyone knew that the NCAA would have a great effect in Great Xia.
It was a win-win situation for both CCTV and the NBA!
No matter what, David Stern had to help!
Now, Mr. CEO only had one wish in his heart.
That was:
Mo Ran had to go further in the NCAA Tournament!
