Chapter 942 The Busy David Stern



As a commercial organization that relies on this business for a living, the alliance attaches great importance to the statistics of ratings, and every minute fluctuations must be recorded and analyzed, and then used as an important basis for advertising investment, and the media that cooperates with them are also very important. Such data is needed for advertising investment, so the data of ratings is very important to the league.

And the strong dialogue between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Seattle SuperSonics, ranked second and No. [-], is more attractive to fans. In addition, both teams have aces like Kobe Bryant or Stephen. Popular players, the league is going to treat this series of the Western Conference Finals as the level of the finals, and according to David Stern's prediction, this will be the division finals with the highest ratings ever, and the first few games Although the fight is not too intense, the ratings are constantly rising.

Although the scene in the second game was a bit ugly, the ratings did not drop much, because the audience was looking forward to whether Stephen would finally make the Lakers available, or the Lakers used fouls to successfully drag Stephen down. As a result, the Lakers The team had the last laugh and added a few points to the suspense of this series.

So the ratings of this game hit a new high again, just like watching a TV series, the audience also wanted to see if the Lakers would still deal with Stephen like this in this game, and how Stephen planned to break the Lakers' tactics , although the scene is ugly, it is also very interesting.

And the development of the game was just as they expected, the Lakers used that trick again when they could do it, and Stephen was also trying to break through the quagmire created by the opponent, just as the audience watched with gusto , The damn referee stood up and disrupted the situation. [

If you just want to disrupt the situation, it’s okay to create difficulties for the Sonics, and many viewers like to see it, but you can’t drive Stephen down, so there is no suspense, and you know, the Supersonics Although there are not many fans, Stephen has many fans.

Strictly speaking, there are four main groups who choose to watch this game on TV, namely Sonics fans, Stephen fans and Lakers fans, Kobe Bryant fans Fans, plus neutral fans who don't have any position and just want to enjoy the game, these five groups are the main base of the audience.

As soon as Stephen is kicked off by the referee, at least Stephen's fans won't watch it anymore. Maybe some Supersonic fans will stay, but most of them should leave, feeling masochistic After all, the fans are only a small part, and the neutral fans will leave because the game loses suspense, so it is understandable that the ratings plummeted by three points after Stephen left the field. Except for the winning side, no one I love watching one-sided games.

By the end of the game, the ratings had dropped by five points. You must know that the highest ratings were only thirteen points. David Stern was happy, and suddenly fell like this. The price fell by 40.00%, so whoever can change it can bear it.

This is because David Stern has a strong mental capacity and is good at taking care of himself. He doesn’t have high blood pressure or heart disease. Lord Weston has such a big fire in his heart.

Although the league quickly made a penalty decision on Stephen.For criticizing the referee after the game and fined [-] U.S. dollars, I hope the player will take this as a warning. , As long as the league thinks you are firing on refereeing issues, it has the right to punish you.

However, $[-] is basically drizzle for Stephen. His daily asset growth is estimated to have exceeded this figure, so it has no effect on Stephen at all, and the league has not imposed on the team. In addition to the pressure, it seems that this punishment is really just a show.

David Stern quarreled with the representative of the referee committee for a long time and almost ate each other. You must know that she is a young beauty in her 40s. Of course, this youth is for David Stern.

The on-duty referee is called Walden. David Stern originally wanted the "Four Heavenly Kings" to whistle for such an important game, but when the referee committee was making arrangements, Walden had already arranged for this series. If there is a temporary substitution, who will make up for Walden's loss? Walden is also a very experienced referee. He has been in charge of the playoff calls for ten seasons, and twice in the conference finals. Nothing happened. A big mistake, so David Stern didn't insist on a substitution, and this happened.

We must know that the ratings drop of a few points is a direct loss for the league, which means a loss of millions of dollars in revenue, and even more indirect losses, because he not only affected the ratings of this game, but even the fourth game All may be affected, why not make David Stern angry.

It is impossible for the referee committee to insist on substitutions, but they can communicate with Walden. In the United States, organizations like labor unions have great power. Even David Stern sometimes cannot change the decision of the referee committee.

You know, referees have never gone on strike. They went on strike once 14 years ago. In the end, although the league used reserve referees, they caused a lot of jokes because of their low level of whistle-blowing. In the end, the two sides reached an agreement. Agreement, and this year is when the last contract expires, David Stern did not dare to offend the referee too much, and finally had to let the representative of the referee committee tell Walden that if there is any problem in the fourth game, he will Don't think about whistling any game in the league in the future.

After settling the referee issue, David Stern hastily summoned representatives of the major media and advertisers to explain the matter to them and inform them of his solution. Fortunately, they are basically partners who have cooperated for many years. Westen's face still needs to be sold. The media said they would do their best to promote the fourth game and increase the hype for this game. Advertisers also said that this game has passed, and the two sides should look forward to it. In the future, I just hope that there will be no more problems in the fourth game. David Stern is naturally guaranteed.

Soon, the media began to exert force. Stephen accidentally turned on the computer and prepared to watch the local news in Los Angeles. Without a bit of technical content, there will only be rampage on the field; what has no concept of loyalty, traitors in Los Angeles, traitors in the United States.

ah?Stephen was taken aback. He had never offended the local media in Los Angeles. Why did he suddenly criticize him? Because he was born at the University of Southern California, and he was considered half a native of Los Angeles. On weekdays, these media treated him as if he Even if it is criticism, there is always a thin line. It is either the tone of hating iron but not steel or sour evidence. Why did they suddenly attack themselves?

Stephen hurriedly picked up the phone and called his agent, Modans. Modans didn't know what was going on, but he told Stephen that maybe it was because he watched the local media in Los Angeles, and other media also supported it. The criticism was not one-sided. It might be the media or the league's campaign for the next game, so Stephen didn't have to worry about it.
