Jeremy Lin's debut was a huge success, not only to the amazement of domestic fans, but also to the inexplicability of ESPN, many scouts and managers in the NBA league.

The NBA is a place where reasoning and data and strength speak.

Jeremy Lin's outburst came without warning at all, it didn't make sense, it had never happened before.

More than 99.99% of coaches, assistant coaches, agents, and fixed mindsets are that Asian athletes play guards, come on, this is something that has never happened in the history of the NBA, absolutely impossible.

So ESPN commentator Barkley questioned: "It should be Yao who didn't play, Anthony was targeted and restricted, and the Rockets didn't have a scoring point, so it was Lin's turn." If you were to switch to any guard who is good at shooting, you can achieve this result. ”

It's so sour.

But many people buy this argument!

It has also been recognized by the vast majority of sports experts, such as The Washington Post, CBS Sports, and FOX Sports, all of which seem to follow ESPN's opinion, which is equivalent to the most mainstream sports expert opinion in the United States.

Even when it was transmitted back to China, "Sports Weekly", "Southern Sports", "Sina Sports" and other media, experts quickly jumped out and questioned Jeremy Lin.

It doesn't seem interesting to question a newcomer.

Then have some fun and talk about the topic person.

Weibo sports commentator Zhu Qi made a statement: "In this game, from the moment I saw Yang Lei, I knew there was a problem, and I put it more bluntly, this game must be used by the Rockets to support Jeremy Lin." ”

Zhu Qi is a real-name Weibo big V with more than 500,000 fans, and this fame is because he used to tear up with sports stars, step on some celebrities whose personalities collapsed, and slowly mix up, and after gradually becoming a little influential, he began to take money to do things.

This time, he took money from Adidas, and spared no effort to hack Yang Lei, Jeremy Lin, and even Yao Ming.

"Zhu Qi, are you insane?"

"The wins and losses of the regular season games are very important, the player statistics are very important, you tell me, give up everyone on the team, and only praise a newcomer?

"Hurry up and pull the rope, this person is crazy, catch and bite!"

"What do you mean the moment you see Yang Lei, how did my little milk dog offend you?"

"Jeremy Lin is also a strong player in the NBA, so he can't let him break out once?"

"It's gold, it shines everywhere you go, you don't have to hold it at all!"

Just when netizens were indignant and criticized and accused this person of not being able to eat grapes, and said that grapes were sour, Zhu Qi's second Weibo post was sent out again.

He directly scolded Yao Ming: "Please watch the game video back, Yao Ming is actually not injured at all, this level of impact is pediatric for him, he is definitely deliberately off the court to create opportunities for Jeremy Lin, because he is standing on the court, Jeremy Lin will never dare to shoot, so the whole game is acting!"

Now, Yao Ming's fans have also been provoked.

"Do you know if Da Yao hurts?"

"Come on, come on, I'll hit you in the leg with a wooden stick, and your scream won't hurt!"

"Standing and talking doesn't hurt your back, this kind of grandstanding person, don't pay attention to him at all!"

Netizens have been angry for Yao's name and Jeremy Lin.

There is no way to talk about it with an unreasonable-stirring stick, the other party will only use skilled skills to pull everyone's IQ to the same level as him Shi, and then use rich skills to defeat everyone.

What's more, after receiving the black money from the public relations company, Zhu Qi came with a task.

The domestic media is also polarized, singing some of the bad and some applauding.

This Jeremy Lin who suddenly appeared brought a lot of explosive topics to people.

The essence of the hype is that the topic must be controversial, and everyone is willing to chat and express their opinions.

To put it simply, tofu brain is sweet or salty, which can definitely cause a quarrel among boring onlookers, and the salty party and the sweet party have always been incompatible, and they both regard it as their responsibility to kill each other.

Or whether durian is the most delicious fruit in the world, or the most unpalatable fruit, the question can detonate the solar system.

Whether Jeremy Lin is acting together this time, or whether he is really a dusty pearl, don't jump to conclusions right away.

A good chef will adjust the heat, cook the small fresh slowly, and let everyone throw firewood together, so that the flame will be strong.

In the next two days, more domestic sports figures joined the heated discussion.

The players of the Shanghai men's basketball team spoke collectively, cheered up their bosses, and stood on Yao Ming's side.

Liu Wei and others went into battle in person, tearing up with an old rogue like Zhu Qi on Weibo, spraying this old rogue who can't take care of himself.

Many people in the CBA industry are also cynical and say some cool things.

Even Anta, these restless guys, stood up and thinned the mud, by the way, recommending a wave of their own sneakers.

Phoenix Sports commentators, CCTV commentators, and mainstream media followed suit, making the people overwhelmed and coaxing.

Several big Vs on Weibo, official accounts, and the quarrel below is full of war.

On the forum, the website discussion area, technical posts, analysis posts, conspiracy posts, standing line posts, gossip posts, bulls, gods, horses and ghosts are all available.

The heat is stirred up like this.

Almost no one noticed that someone was leading the way early on, and no one expected that the Stone Milk Dog Studio was making waves in it again.

………………

Public opinion hype is only one aspect, in Houston, Yang Lei is methodically carrying out the following operations.

Yang Lei shook hands with Jeremy Lin's agent, Roger Montgomery, a tall black man who always likes to gesture when he speaks, and his face is smiling like a black rose.

He said: "Congratulations, you have won the talented star Lin. ”

Yang Lei smiled politely: "This is what you deserve." ”

Jeremy Lin's family was also on the side, very politely speaking to Yang Lei in Chinese, thanking and congratulating each other.

The offer of $3 million for 5 years is definitely not high, but this offer can be accepted by the Lin family, and even Roger said that he can.

It's already very good for a player who is about to be cut to get a shoe offer, and most of the substitutes have to pay for their own shoes.

And Jeremy Lin himself doesn't even want the money, he is willing to endorse X-Sports for free to thank Yang Lei for his help.

"Ray, if you hadn't helped me get a chance to play, I might have ......"

"Needless to say, I don't need words of thanks, you play well, do your job, I provide you with high-quality sneakers to help you go to the next level, we are a relationship of mutual assistance and cooperation. ”

Yang Lei said indifferently: "Also, don't think that winning a game is very powerful, then I need you to score crazy points and use data to slap the faces of those who look down on you." ”

Jeremy Lin's eyes were full of war: "I'm very willing to do this!"

"In addition, you have to cooperate with our publicity and packaging, what can be said and what cannot be said, I will tell Roger and let him convey it to you. ”

"Understood. ”

"This season until the end of the playoffs, all the publicity on the American side will be in charge of the Yao team. ”

“OK。 ”

"I'll let you know when the time comes. So, as long as you play well, these are what you deserve. ”

Yang Lei likes to be open and honest, and his sincerity makes the Lin family very relieved and trusts him.

As for the cost of endorsing X-Sports, is it too low?

The stars who have worked with Yang Lei have never been entangled in this problem, and with X-Sports, only everyone can make a fortune and make money together, and it is almost impossible to lose.

Yang Lei's offer is purely because he doesn't want his agent to let the U.S. tax take away more than half of Jeremy Lin's income, and X-Sports has a way to stuff real money into Jeremy Lin's pocket.

This is not bragging, it is not unreasonable that the rich in the United States are all keen on philanthropy, this point, Yao Zhi's team is quite clear, Yao Fund is a master of tax avoidance, this kind of thing can only be understood, not spoken.

Jeremy Lin's second game, the third game, although Yang Lei is very willing to watch the scene, but it is unrealistic, he is going back to China.

Of course, before returning to China, Yang Lei discussed Yao Mingming's endorsement with Zhang Mingji, who had just flown in, and Yao Ming.

The three of them couldn't be more acquainted, and they were originally partners, so they couldn't be handled with the relationship between the boss and the employee.

The sun shines in Yao's home in Houston, the three of them sit in the living room and chat, Yao's mother and Chen Binni are preparing fruits, grinding coffee, and making tea, and the atmosphere is very warm and harmonious.

Yang Lei put forward a plan: "Brother Yao, I want to follow the example of Nike and Jordan, open a separate Yao sub-brand, and test the water in the NBA first." ”

This made Zhang Mingji and Yao Ming happy, this is also the most in their interests, not to mention whether Yao can be as famous as Jordan in the future, at least this brand can give Yao Ming a hope of leaving a name in history.

Zhang Mingji was about to bargain and ask about the details of the cooperation, but Yao Ming stopped him: "I have the final say on this matter." ”

Zhang Mingji understood, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, I'm used to being an agent." ”

Yao Ming asked, "Are you going to open a subsidiary, or are you just going to add a Yao series of sneakers?"

Yang Lei said: "Of course it's a series, just like the Nike Jordan product line, if it can be bigger, we will spin it out, and if it can't be bigger, it will be subordinate, and I will manage all brands in a unified manner." ”

Yao Ming sighed, leaned back in the chair, very regretful, and pounded his fist into his palm: "Why didn't I know you 10 years earlier? In that case, in my eight-year NBA career, I don't know how high I can push this Yao series to, alas!"

Yang Lei also sighed: "I was not born when you were born, and I am old when I was born." You hate me for being late, and I sigh for being early. ”

Chen Bingni laughed loudly in the back, and Yao's mother also laughed from ear to ear: "Alas, you two boys, can you not be so hypocritical?"

Chen Bingni laughed: "I got goosebumps when I heard it." ”

Yang Lei was not afraid of ugliness, turned his head and said loudly: "Nini, we are both the same age, no one dislikes anyone, right, we can grow old together." ”

"Phew!"

Chen Bingni stuck out her tongue: "I don't want to get old! I want to be as young and beautiful as Yao's mother." ”

Yao's mother really likes this little girl, she really can't stop laughing.

The two are wrapping up the Shanghai wontons, one is kneading the dough, the other is chopping and rolling the skin, talking and laughing, looking at the little man they love in the sofa area, not to mention how warm the scene is.
