Chapter 128 Face(1/2)
Chapter 159 Face
After becoming the ticket holder of the All-Star Game, Jiang Hu accepted interviews from reporters and media after the game.
"Thank you to the fans and friends from all over the world, thank you for your love, I really appreciate you!!"
"The All-Star vote win is a huge motivation for me. It means that many people like to watch me play. For players, this is a meaningful thing."
"I don't think I have achieved much. It's all the passionate fans who have pushed me to this position."
"We players have encountered a good era. We have received too much, material, spotlight, applause, and honors, but all of these are actually brought to us by the fans. Without fans, we would have nothing.
No."
"Without fans, the sport of basketball is meaningless to me!!"
"So I've been thinking, but when we get so many good things, should we dedicate more wonderful moments to our fans."
"Please stay tuned, I will do my best to bring you a better performance!!"
In this interview, Jiang Hu acted very modestly and did not feel very elated or excited because he became the top vote-getter.
Because he comes from China, a country with a population of 1.4 billion. It is also the country with the most mobile Internet users in the world and the country with the most basketball fans in the world. Jiang Hu is the only basketball superstar in this country.
Mark Thompson, the current vice president and chief operating officer of the NBA, called personally and invited Xiao Hua to participate in the dunk contest, eight-point ball contest, and skills challenge.
"Gordon? NBA President Adam Tang Jing? You and I are so bad, how could you provoke me?" Xiao Hua didn't understand when he heard Anji's question. He thought it was nothing important when Anji called him here.
.
After saying that, Xiao Hua hung up the phone directly, leaving the CEO on the other end of the phone listening to the busy tone and looking confused.
Ten million is the threshold, twenty million is also difficult, eighty million is a matter of discussion.
The vice president of the league personally called and invited me. I can always agree to all the games. I must agree to them all. But now that old silver coin Gordon knows, who knows I will wear Xiao Hua's shoes outside the next game.
Shoes.
Xiao Hua secretly scolded Gordon for using power to suppress others, but he dared to show the slightest respect...
"Tang Jing, the most famous person in Boston's world, has CEO forgotten you?"
Such an opponent brought the competitiveness of that game to its peak. Xiao Hua must be in bad form, or the opponent is in great form, and the outcome of the game is difficult to predict.
"Big river??Which big river??"
The special invitation process for the Slam Dunk Contest, Eight-Point Contest, and Skills Challenge is for the league office to send an email to the team, and then the team will notify the players, and the players will decide whether to participate.
Xiao Hua asked: "Can anyone be invited? Is he sure?"
"Oh?"
Mark Thompson gave earnest advice on the phone: "Jiang, he must participate in the slam dunk contest no matter what. Once he wins, his popularity will continue to increase, which is the least beneficial choice for him personally and for the league.
”
"Adam? Yes, he may have typed it wrong, you are Eve."
In that kind of schedule, the Jianghu Special Forces can only survive with the help of an extremely strong bench. It is not lucky that there are not many people injured.
"Hey, Xiao Hua, it's you, Adam."
But the team's schedule, no matter how small or big, is really targeted. When the time comes, small injuries will be caused for the sake of record, affecting the championship, which will be worth the loss.
The skills challenge was also known to Xiao Hua...
On January 22, Xiao Hua received eight invitations from the NBA for eight-point ball contests, dunk contests and skills challenges.
If you want to do it, just do it with the weakest one. Otherwise, even if you win the championship, it will be meaningless.
"Pa."
What Tang Jing said out of mouth is not Xiao Hua's true thoughts outside of his mind. With or without those two people together, Xiao Hua would definitely participate in that game.
It's Xiao Hua who's playing a trick, but as a guard, I'm simply vague about what items are included in the Skills Challenge. In the past All-Star Games, when I saw the Skills Challenge, I would directly change the channel.
The level of interest is almost reached, let alone participating.
Kyle was the champion of the eight-point ball competition last year, and I said in a recent interview that my goal this year is to defend the title.
There was one player outside the list who could play, and outside of Xiao Hua's memory, the first person to win the championship that year was actually Mitchell, who was 185cm tall, and his winning dunk posture was still the same
"You have to give this old Bidden a call!!"
I have to appease the yin and yang bad ass president to ensure that the team is in a big shoes last season.
Stephen Kuwait(Warriors)
Gordon's call was answered, and Xiao Hua, who had looked irritable just now, instantly changed his face to another face, smiling broadly at the phone, nodding and bending, looking like a waiter who was apologizing to a customer.
"Oh, it turns out that the All-Star voting champion, superstar Tang Jing, is so reluctant to call you. You are so busy and have nothing to explain?" Gordon simply took Xiao Hua's words and ended his conversation with Xiao Hua.
Suddenly, I became crazy and angry.
"Don't panic, please give me a call."
Under the surface, there is little the alliance can do.
When he learned that the next champion of this dunk contest, LaVine and the crowned king Tang Jing, were both unable to participate due to injuries, Xiao Hua chose to stay informed and let Thompson say bad things, but Xiao Hua said nothing.
p>
"You bastard, how dare you win over you..."
Lawai Nance, Victor Oladipo, Dennis Smith, Shao Nova Mitchell...
Tang Jing fully understood when she provoked Gordon. Except for the draft meeting, Gordon and I had never been in contact. The next time the two of us faced each other would be at the draft meeting. How could she provoke me?
Danny Ainge looked at Xiao Hua with a gloomy face and said:
Looking at the New York number displayed on the phone, Xiao Hua hesitated for a moment before answering the call. When he heard the caller said that he was Adam from Greek mythology, Xiao Hua felt that he must have encountered a mental illness...
p>
"Okay, it's a detour with him. Remember to save the number. The number you are calling him is your private number."
Xiao Hua's invitation process is not the same as that of special players. The person who invited me also came from the league office, but he was the person with the least power in the office.
"Mr. President, Xiao Hua is willing to go no matter what. When I say I want to go, I want to compete with Tang Jing and Lavin. I have no motivation to compete with these famous seniors."
Gordon also got straight to the point and told the purpose of his phone call.
But after thinking about it, I finally swallowed my breath and called the president's office of the Jianghu Special Team.
After being firm for a while, Xiao Hua still answered truthfully.
Nowadays, Xiao Hua has many omissions in his statistics of Chinese fans. The ratio is probably 10 to 1. In the end, the votes of a small number of people are simply included in the invalid statistics. I am sure Gordon dares to vote for fans in China.
If all were counted, Xiao Hua's number of votes would probably be a quite astonishing number.
Xiao Hua breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that Old Silver Coin Gordon was worried about him again.
In Gordon's memory, Jordan and Kobe were also the same type of players. The weaker the opponent, the more energetic they became. If a normal game is a fight, when you encounter a mortal enemy or an opponent, it is exactly the same as a war.
After thinking for a while, Tang Jing felt that she could understand.
Gordon, who knew that he had been chosen, was so angry that he slapped the table hard.
Xiao Hua is very sure that with or without Kyle and LaVine, Xiao Hua will win the championship with his own physical fitness.
"Mader, dead eunuch!!"
The phone rang once, and someone answered it immediately...
Xiao Hua's move made Danny Ainge next to him look dumbfounded. The arrogant super genius now actually showed that flattering face. From the time Xiao Hua was selected by me to now, I have never seen him before.
That face of mine.
Although Thompson's invitation sounded sincere, Xiao Hua did not hesitate to agree, but asked about the list of participants for that game.
Anji, who was in front of the table, took a puff of cigar and sighed loudly: "You are also vague about their situation. I said that your team has been in trouble recently, the team has been revived, and now it is better. You even dare to hang up on me.
It’s not like they’ve been working hard recently, it’s because the schedule arranged for them was too tiring, and the arrangements for them last season were a little tighter.”
Thompson believes that Xiao Hua's dunk ability is in the middle and lower reaches in the entire league, and it is a pity that such a talent participates in the dunk contest.
Before Thompson hung up the phone, he called Gordon again. I was still desperate and wanted Xiao Hua to participate in the dunk contest.
A person can be worn a thousand times, but a flatterer can only wear it. As an old Chinese saying goes, you can only bully you.
Moreover, there was no Kuwait in that game, and Kuwait also brought Tatum. Tang Jing felt that the game was too weak to play.
"I must have known it was you in advance. You would have found a chair and sat down to listen quickly."
You must know the cohesion of Chinese netizens. When we are divided and do the same thing, the power is quite terrifying.
"That's true. You know how valuable your opponent is, so what does that kind of game mean to you?"
Gordon was stunned for a while after hearing Xiao Hua's words.
………………………………………………
"Yes, yes, save it immediately. Just save it and put it at the top of your address book, waiting for your guidance at any time."
The villainous CEO suppressed the anger in his heart and called again. Who knew that this time it would be even worse...
To be continued...
