Chapter 1477： Pressure from gaming groups
"That's just the fans' thoughts, isn't it simple? But the last thing this league needs is simplicity!"
Yang Cheng put down his tea cup, "What are you going to do in Game 6? This is the home court of the Nets~"
His words hide murderous intentions!
Xiao Hua is not stupid. Naturally, he can hear the faint threat in Yang Cheng’s words, but he has already responded to it and laughed inexplicably, "The Nets will win the sixth game, and the win is very exciting. According to the script’s consistent How about the routine, the team affected by the shady, counter-attack at home, with a big victory to vent their malice? This is the favorite script of the fans, and it has a sense of substitution."
Yang Cheng was silent, and it seemed that Xiao Hua had arranged everything.
"and then?"
Xiao Hua understood that Yang Cheng was referring to the seventh and final results. "Then? LeBron will inevitably lead his team back to the Finals. This is the result that everyone has hoped for. After you took over, the Nets became a player in less than two years. The East is strong, this is enough to satisfy New York fans, isn't it?"
"No room for negotiation?"
After a short pause, he leaned back on the back of the sofa and said lightly, "For the gaming group, making money is the primary goal. The originally hot knights unexpectedly lost in the tiebreaker. The money to bet the knights must be Occupy the bulk, then all will be owned by the gaming group. This is what the gaming group wants to see the most, isn't it?"
Xiao Hua's finger lightly touched the armrest of the sofa, as if thinking about something.
After a long while, he shook his head and said, "No, this kind of risk is too great, and as a bookmaker, how can they make money, why take risks?"
Yang Cheng frowned and said something, Xiao Hua raised his hand to stop, "Listen to me, Jason, Vegas is in the next big chess game. There can be no only NBA **** on the board. The NBA is just the first one they played. Moves.
Everything is just the beginning. The involvement of gambling in sports is a general trend. We can't stop it, and no one can stop it. Unless you can join in and become a chess player, I will take your opinions and suggestions very seriously. "
Xiao Hua said that he is neither humble nor overbearing, and obviously has his own confidence. In fact, Yang Cheng also knows that since the gaming group has participated, his Nets can only become a chess piece at the mercy of others.
This is also no way. The gaming group wants to reach out to the major sports leagues. It is already well known.
And this first step is very stable. Globally, sports leagues and sports teams cooperate with betting companies more and more. For example, some European football giants will sign a chest advertising agreement with betting companies. Australia’s Australian style The Football League has even established an official partnership with a betting company.
But in the United States, sports betting was once a thunder pool that professional leagues dared not surpass, or even touched.
There is a well-known bill in American law-the PASPA Act (Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act), which was created specifically to prohibit the legalization of sports betting.
The bill was introduced and passed by Senator Bill Bradley in 1992.
It is worth mentioning that Bradley used to be a player and played for the New York Knicks for 10 years. As one of them, he knew that gambling would affect the healthy development of the entire sports industry. Sports leagues and local ZF also believe that sports betting has a lot of harm but no benefit, because there were not many entertainment activities at that time, and sports competitions were almost the focus of attention of the whole people, and all parties paid special attention.
Therefore, except for states like Nevada that legalized sports betting before 1992, other states in the United States have not tried to legalize sports betting for a long time.
And for a long time in the past, the four major American sports leagues, NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL, put aside the emotion of competition and worked together to work together to oppose the legalization of sports betting.
However, this kind of tacit understanding has been self-defeating since Xiao Hua succeeded Stern as the chairman of the NBA in 2014. This profit-oriented dead head has a completely different attitude to the legalization of sports betting from the general public and mainstream groups.
Obviously, out of the thinking of a businessman, Xiao Hua saw the booming trend of sports betting. He believed that since sports betting has become very popular, the sports leagues should simply admit the reality and legalize underground betting instead of resorting to useless resistance. , Not only is conducive to accepting the supervision of major leagues, but also sports leagues can get a share.
In his opinion, this kind of general trend should be taken advantage of, and should not be stopped, can the arm be twisted beyond the thigh?
In fact, the gaming group has already made efforts behind the scenes, starting with the ZZ field, legalizing sports betting, and actively promoting state councilors to pass relevant bills. As long as it is legally reasonable, everything will be done.
According to Xiao Hua's estimation, the rationalization of the bill will be realized within the next two years at the earliest. It is not that he is arrogant, but that he knows too much about the urination of those congressmen. With the methods of the gaming group, how many can he withstand the temptation?
Don't like money like women? Don't you like women like men? You can always do what you like!
The fact is indeed the case. In the previous life, during the period before Yang Cheng traveled, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the federal ZF's ban on sports betting violated the constitutional will, and the cancellation of related bills caused a stir Then New Jersey announced sports. Since the legalization of gambling, since New Jersey, four states have successively announced that Delaware, Nevada, New Jersey, and Mississippi. It is foreseeable that the gaming group has successfully opened a window in the ZZ field, just like in the snow Among the snow-capped mountains, there was a roar, and the avalanche was only momentary.
In this context, the NBA, under the leadership of Xiao Hua, opened its arms first and became the first American sports league to eat crabs.
If Yang Cheng remembers correctly, then the NBA and the gaming giant MGM International reached a cooperation agreement, and the two sides will sign a three-year contract worth at least $25 million.
According to the agreement, MGM Resorts International will be allowed to use the NBA and team logos, as well as obtain information on the league’s official data, and label it as "NBA and WNBA Official Partner".
All fools know that 25 million in the past three years is just a beginning, and it is just a superficial contract with huge benefits!
This contract will add more than 8 million U.S. dollars to the alliance each year, which is only a small number compared to the league's total revenue of more than 6 billion U.S. dollars.
But for the NBA, the signing of the contract means the start of the car. Once the cooperation between the NBA and Migao proves to be successful, there will be more bookmakers line up to sign with the NBA.
One family is 8 million, how about ten? How about twenty? How many gaming groups around the world want to get a share of the market? The NBA's right to speak will increase indefinitely. This is a transaction worth billions of dollars. Without this level of interest, would someone like Xiao Hua take such a huge risk?
The answer must be no!
