Xu Yuan's live interview caused a huge controversy at the tip of the rice grain.

There are a lot of sports superstars of the older generation, but they have all participated in previous Olympics.

In terms of novelty, the unspoken rule is that they will not be the spokesperson again this time.

Of some of the people who are currently eligible, Kobe Bryant is indeed making a big noise.

Even though he has now transformed into a successful Hollywood producer, it has only expanded his global reach.

Six billion Komi is no joke.

But an Oriental man so hand-picked his best friend Kobe Bryant in the United States to become the image spokesperson of the Olympic Games, which still made other people whose interests were damaged feel offended.

You must know that Kobe Bryant has many endorsements.

For example, Nike.

If Kobe Bryant becomes the image spokesperson of this Olympic Games, to a certain extent, it will also bring huge benefits to Nike. Correspondingly, other brands are uncomfortable.

Everyone wants to compete for this business opportunity.

Maybe other brands can't compare to Nike in terms of sponsorship, but in terms of these candidates, sending their own spokesperson in to steal chickens is a good choice.

In this context, many media began to criticize Xu Yuan.

Nutton Post: "Sean's performance was disappointing, even though Xu had a good box office and some awards in Hollywood that Sean didn't. But Sean, as the chief director of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in four years, should make his own ideas, not ask others. ”

Twisting the waist of the Times: "In my opinion, Sean's approach is irresponsible, you can't leave the decision to Xu Lai, you can't let Xu Lai help you bear such scolding, it's not fair to Xu!"

Falling Pheasant Daily: "Xu is too sincere, he was fooled, maybe Sean invited Xu to the show because he wanted to choose Kobe." In the end, Xu took on the pressure, and Sean achieved his own goal. After all, we know that this time the Olympic Games, Nike is the biggest sponsor of the Olympic Organizing Committee of the United States. ”

Mosaic Science & Technology News: "Why does it have to be Kobe? I think there are many suitable athletes, why, it must be, Kobe?"

As soon as these reports came out, Xu Yuan thought he was wrong.

What about the collective criticism and crusade that is good?

Why do they all say good things about themselves?

If it weren't for the fact that his Alipay balance figure hadn't changed, Xu Yuan would even think that he had found a wave of public relations.

But that's just the way it is.

No one blames Xu Yuan.

Because of him, he just earned 250 million yuan and is the newly rising Hollywood darling.

At this time, how dare the media hack Xu Yuan?

As long as no one spends money to hack Xu Yuan, a successful person, no one will ever take the lead in standing up and questioning Xu Yuan, a rich man.

Their so-called challenge to authority is often driven by interests, and has nothing to do with freedom of speech, only money.

The next night, Xu Yuan was invited by Kobe Bryant to his home as a guest.

"Thank you, Xu, so that I don't have to be this ambassador. Bryant had a knowing smile on his face.

In fact, Kobe Bryant now has several endorsements that are conflicting, which even affects his normal life. He has already made up his mind that he will not continue to renew his contract after the rest of the endorsements expire except for the lifetime contract.

Moreover, he is also a boss now, and he doesn't want to be someone else's endorsement, he wants to bring salt for himself!

So far, several of his endorsements will probably expire in two or three years.

Therefore, in order not to make the endorsement issue more complicated, Kobe Bryant has long decided to give up the opportunity to be the ambassador of the Olympic Games this time.

That's just part of his concern.

Another layer is because the image ambassador is set so early, which is conducive to the early publicity of the Olympic Games, but the final result after four years may not be in the hands of the current ambassador.

This involves a question of picking peaches.

The simple understanding is that Kobe Bryant still has a huge influence in the sports world now, but he has retired, and that's important.

Four years later, his historical status may be higher, but his influence in the circle is destined to be not as high as that of the newly rising first person in the league, or even the next generation of successors in the alliance.

They have people who praise them, but Kobe Bryant doesn't.

Others have football games every week, they all have appearances, they all have heat and topics, and retired players can't compare to others.

This is the law of nature, and no one can withstand time, even if you are Jordan and Kobe.

If Kobe Bryant really became an image ambassador, he ran around the world in the first four years to cooperate with the publicity. At the end of the opening ceremony, a few other ambassadors came temporarily, wouldn't he be a loser?

When the time comes, people don't have to do anything, and they can get the same treatment as Kobe. Even because he is a new image ambassador, he will be more eye-catching than Kobe.

And so on.

This is by no means Kobe's speculation.

In fact, if there was no definite news, with Kobe's Mamba EQ, he would not have thought of so much.

A lot of things are premeditated.

The karma and encounters you have experienced are nothing but other people's calculations.

After knowing this situation, Kobe Bryant quickly got in touch with Xu Yuan and asked for help. He knows that the brains of the Orientals are best used.

This is indeed the case.

So Xu Yuan and Kobe Bryant came to such a play.

Including Sean's plan to let Xu Yuan help him take the blame and say that Kobe Bryant is the best candidate, it is all in Xu Yuan's plan.

Because Sean is a smart man, since he wants to choose Kobe, who is the most appropriate name to say?

Naturally, it is Xu Yuan.

This is a connection problem that is not too difficult.

"Man, come on, record the video, it's too late for you to make a statement. Xu Yuan held the camera and showed a lewd smile, "Yes, this is the posture...... Take it easy and don't worry...... Well, hurry up and do it again......"

Five minutes later, Bryant's social media platform posted a video feed.

Hey, why another five minutes?

"Hi guys, I'm Kobe. I already know about the controversy over the ambassadors of the Olympic Games. First of all, I would like to thank my dearest friend Xu, I am very touched by his support for me, and I hope that you will not blame him, because this is our friendship. ”

"I'm grateful to the others who have supported me, but I'm afraid I'm sorry to you. ”

"The Olympic Games are the top glory for all athletes, and it was also the stage of my dream. However, I think there are more good active athletes who are better suited for the position of ambassador than me, a retired old guy. ”

"Like James, like Brady, like Gatlin, like Serena Williams, they're all some of the best in their fields. ”

"Glory should belong to those who are struggling, and I should not sit back and enjoy it. ”

"Of course, I also started my own struggle in a new field, and the films I supervised "This Killer Is Not Too Cold" and "50 First Loves" have achieved certain results because I chose the right partner. ”

"Here, let me also help my dear Xu to advertise once, my new work "Forrest Gump" with him is being filmed, when the time comes, I hope you will support a lot!"

Kobe Bryant swore that if it weren't for the camera in Xu Yuan's hands, he wouldn't have said the last word.

This advertisement is too blunt!
