Text: Chapter 1054

Staples Arena, Los Angeles, USA.

At this moment, a game is going on on the court, the home team Los Angeles Lakers face the Houston Rockets who came to challenge, the score on the court at this moment is 112:96, according to international practice, the home team is in front, but in the back, at this time the game has reached the end of the fourth quarter, and the Houston Rockets want to turn the tables basically no longer possible.

On the side of the stadium, behind the away team's rest area, Song Zheng and Zhang Jingchu were sitting there, but their attention was obviously not on the field.

As for Zhang Jingchu, she came over completely with Song Zheng, and sitting with them was the little giant Yao Ming, Yao Ming, who was supposed to be on the court, but because of his injury at the moment, he could only be a spectator in a suit and leather shoes.

In a Western Conference semi-final in the first half of this year, after Yao Ming left the field with an injury, he returned to the court despite the dissuasion of the team doctor, and led the team to victory, but it also ruined his career.

If Song Zheng remembers correctly, after that game, Yao Ming's career basically came to an end, and he was finally injured and stopped, and reluctantly announced his retirement in 2011.

The reason why Song Zheng and Zhang Jingchu appeared here is obviously not for the competition, the purpose of their coming to the United States this time is actually to canvass for "The Happiness Line Behind the Dark Clouds".

It's not the Oscars, the Oscars will have to wait until March next year, and their goal this time is the Golden Globes, which are known as the outposts of the Oscars.

After "The Happiness Line Behind the Dark Clouds" was released in the United States last year, it was very popular, and the film with an investment of less than 10 million US dollars finally reached 328 million, which is naturally not comparable to those blockbusters, but as a small-cost literary film, it is undoubtedly very successful to get such a high box office.

At the upcoming Golden Globe Awards, "The Happiness Line Behind the Dark Clouds" has received a total of six nominations, namely Best Drama Film, Best Director, Best Drama Actor, Best Drama Actress, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Screenwriter, which can be described as a big show.

Regardless of whether he can win the award in the end, he received six nominations in one fell swoop, which is enough for Song Zheng to blow a year's awesomeness, although the influence of the Golden Globe Awards is far less than that of the Oscars, a bit similar to the Purple Golden Flower Award to the Xiangjiang Film Awards, but it is always an international award, and it is much stronger than those who don't know the so-called township enterprise awards.

Sitting on the sidelines at the moment, Song Zheng was thinking about the upcoming Golden Globe Awards ceremony, and the public relations activities had started as early as two months ago, but whenever there was an award ceremony, there were always all kinds of cats in it.

Song Zheng, a director from China, has not made a few movies in Hollywood, and now he suddenly won six nominations for the Golden Globe Awards with a movie, obviously to touch the interests of some people, and it is inevitable to be suppressed.

Therefore, the necessary public relations means are absolutely indispensable, these are all done by Lionsgate, they are still looking forward to cooperating with Song Zheng again, the previous few cooperations, Lionsgate Pictures has made a lot of money, not to mention, "The Happiness Line Behind the Dark Clouds" is hanging in the name of Lionsgate, just for this, they can't do their best.

What Song Zheng and Zhang Jingchu have to do is to attend some activities from time to time and brush up on their sense of existence, and this time they came to Staples to watch the game just to brush up on their sense of existence.

It is also a coincidence to meet Yao Ming, Yao Ming's previous injury seems to have almost recovered, and he has started training with the team, but Song Zheng knows that Yao Ming will be injured soon, and then until he retires, he has not played a few games for the Rockets.

A celebrity in the cultural world, a big name in the sports world, these two people get together, there is really nothing to talk about, but in a foreign country, both Chinese, naturally it is indispensable to get closer, not to mention that when the two people attended the event before, they had also met, which was not a stranger.

At the end of the game, the Los Angeles Lakers won under the leadership of Kobe Bryant Bryant, and the Rockets players who lost the game did not look too frustrated, but it was just a regular season game, the NBA has a long format, there are 82 regular season games, and losing one game is nothing.

"What a pity!"

"They didn't fight well!"

What Yao Ming said they were obviously referring to was the Rockets, the whole game, the Rockets didn't show much desire to survive, they were completely passable, in this state, if they could make the playoffs, it would be a hell of a life.

Leaving the Staples Arena, Song Zheng and Zhang Jingchu's goal can be regarded as having been achieved, just in the gap between the dead balls in the game, the big screen on the scene swept them several times, brushing up on their presence.

After having supper together, when they broke up, Yao Ming suddenly said: "Are you interested in buying a team to run it!?"

Song Zheng was stunned by what Yao Ming said, what is this!?

Yao Ming smiled: "I know, you are a rich man!"

Song Zheng is a major shareholder of Xiaomi Technology, people always know, now with the listing of Xiaomi Technology, Song Zheng's net worth has increased several times at once, if all his assets are shaken out, it is difficult to say in the world, at least the name of the richest man in China is definitely his.

"Forget it, I'm not interested in basketball, and I can't do my own business, but if I want to buy a soccer team, I can consider it!"

If in basketball, Song Zheng is just a pseudo-fan, then football is different, when he was okay in his previous life, he liked to follow his friends to kick twice, relying on the kung fu he had learned, and he played well.

In his previous life, he had fantasized that if he had money, he would buy a team to run it, but that was pure wishful thinking, but now with his financial resources, it is really not a dream, but unfortunately, the team he likes, at present, there is no possibility of being sold at all, at least it will take a few years to do it.

Yao Ming just said it casually, but Song Zheng was really moved by Yao Ming's words, but what he wanted to buy was not a basketball team, but a football team.

Saying goodbye to each other, Song Zheng and Zhang Jingchu went back to the hotel directly, the Golden Globe Awards ceremony will be held three days later, and in these three days, what they have to do is to increase the chances of winning the award as much as possible.
