【Chapter 1136】 The Great War is Coming (Ask for Subscription!)
June 6th, in the hearts of many superstitious Chinese people, is a quite auspicious day, not only the new calendar sounds smooth, but also the yellow calendar is also auspicious, is an auspicious day of the zodiac.
Today is the day of the start of the 17-18 NBA Finals, and the sports channel of Huaxia TV started the live broadcast an hour earlier at 8 o'clock in the morning, attracting a large number of Huaxia fans to watch the game in front of the TV.
Although today is Wednesday, the huge appeal of Xiao Feng, UAE and Zhou Qi is still for Chinese fans to find all ways to watch the broadcast, and even fans at work and school are secretly watching the live broadcast on their mobile phones.
For Chinese fans, this may be Xiao Feng's penultimate game, and watching one game is one less, so naturally it can't be missed.
More than 80 Chinese media sent media reporters to Staples Arena for interviews in today's game, including Huaxia TV, Haizhou Satellite TV, Lingnan Satellite TV, Peking Satellite TV and other 8 TV stations for broadcasting, and websites such as Qiqi.com, Penguin.com, Tudou.com, and Inspur Sports will also broadcast live simultaneously.
In the history of Chinese sports broadcasting, only the Peking Olympics can get such a grand treatment, which shows Xiao Feng's huge influence in China.
In the hearts of the Chinese media and ordinary people, excluding those heads of state and historical greats, Xiao Feng is the most internationally renowned idol in Chinese history, and his every move is the focus, not to mention the final battle of his departure from the NBA?
As a point guard, Xiao Feng played superstar data in the NBA with a height of less than 188cm, which undoubtedly subverted the outside world's perception of Chinese and yellow people, and also inspired countless children to devote themselves to sports.
From this point of view, Xiao Feng's motivational effect on the Chinese people is much higher than that of Da Yao at the beginning, so when Xiao Feng is about to retire, the shock caused is undoubtedly huge.
When there was still an hour before the game, the reporters in front had already begun to send various videos, live signals and pictures to the rear, and the studio in the rear also carried out various analyses and explanations around the situation on the scene.
Before the game begins, the biggest attraction is the celebrity guests in the stands, which is also the style of Staples Arena, even in Madison Square Square is a little less impressive.
The on-site director also knew that these celebrities in the stands were the only magic weapon to increase ratings, so he frequently gave many close-ups to the stands, which won the unanimous appreciation of the TV audience.
Among the many celebrities, the ones sitting behind and around the home team's bench are naturally the most eye-catching, either with great fame or huge wealth, and with a huge fan base around the world.
Among the Hollywood superstars, Xiao Lizi and Nicholson, two loyal fans of the Lakers, sat behind the bench and occasionally said a few words to the Lakers' bench players, a status that has only been earned by supporting the team for decades.
In addition to these two middle-aged and elderly handsome guys, superstars including Will Smith, Johnny Depp, and Tom Cruise all appeared in the stands with their families, showing their support to the Lakers while earning enough media space for themselves.
According to incomplete statistics, there are at least about 100 Hollywood stars who appear in the stands today and can be called by the media, and as for those 'stars' who are not in the stream, there are even more!
Every time there is a major competition, Staples Arena has basically become the vanity fair of Hollywood and even the European and American entertainment circles, big stars need this platform to brush the layout, and small stars also hope to meet big stars, big producers and entertainment company bosses through this occasion, etc., which is very lively.
The media in Los Angeles and even around the world are well aware of this, so they will send elite soldiers to conduct interviews in the future, and the sales in the next two or three days will depend on today.
Almost half of the stars and directors in the European and American entertainment circles are here, and the Chinese entertainment industry is not to be outdone, and many big-name stars are in many top positions, which is very eye-catching.
Many celebrities who have a good personal relationship with Xiao Feng can not only cheer for Xiao Feng out of friendship, but also be able to appear in the global media, which is also a good thing.
Deng Xiaochao and his wife, Huang Xiaoming and his wife, Xiaoyanzi and his wife, Sister Na and his wife, as well as the queen Wang Wen and her boyfriend Xie Feng all appeared in the stands, and their actions were not far from Xiao Feng's family, which naturally had Xiao Feng to come forward, otherwise tickets for this position would not be able to be bought even if they had money.
For this game, the price of tickets to the top floor, which is farthest from the stadium, has risen to $500, which is equivalent to a month's salary for many young Chinese. As for the location closest to the bench and the court, the price above $5,000 depends on the name and identity of the purchaser.
Whenever a Chinese star appears in the stands, the Chinese audience in front of the TV is also a little excited, after all, seeing familiar faces is always kind.
Prior to this, Chinese celebrities went overseas to watch football, and there was probably no difference from ordinary audiences, because they couldn't buy a prime position at the top, and there would be no director who deliberately gave close-ups.
But because of Xiao Feng, these Chinese stars have been treated better, which shows that respect off the field needs to be won on the field.
In addition to the stars in the entertainment industry, there are many political and business celebrities sitting in the stands, and these big people who usually appear in suits and leather shoes in major office buildings and economic forums are also dressed in casual clothes, and even put on Xiao Feng's No. 23 jersey, which also makes the audience watch with relish.
Lin Jian, the second richest man in China, appeared in the stands with his wife Yuhua and son Lin Sicong, and their actions were close to the Xiao family, and Lin Sicong sat side by side with Xiao Dapeng.
Don't look at Lin Sicong, who is usually very high-profile and unreliable, but on this occasion he has also become a good baby, and the 'girlfriends' who usually appear next to him are also nowhere to be seen.
It's normal to think about it, although this kind of occasion is quite entertaining, but the Xiao family, the Lin family, and many business elders will attend, and some women who are not four or six will appear, isn't that looking for scolding.
Lin Jian's family is here, Xiao Feng's good buddies, the BAT triumvirate will naturally not be absent, and Zhang Chaolang, who maintains a good relationship with Xiao Feng, is also here, discussing some work matters with Xiao Feng's assistant Ma Xiaotian. Because of Xiao Feng, the performance of the Inspur Bib on the NASDAQ has always been commendable, and Zhang Chao's personal net worth and status have been rising, no matter how important Xiao Feng is, it is impossible to overstate it.
Now that Xiao Feng has retired from the NBA, how to continue to maintain the popularity and topicality of the wave scarf will become one of the priorities of Zhang Chao and Ma Xiaotian's future work, after all, a self-media account with more than 110 million fans is a huge wealth in itself!
Liu Yonghao did not come to the scene to watch the first game due to physical reasons, he chose to stay in the 'Dream Manor' and several old ladies to watch the TV broadcast, while Liu Su sat in the Xiao family stands with his new husband Zhang Dongliang. Liu Su is exchanging maintenance experience with Xu Mengyao, of course, parenting is naturally the focus of the chat, because Liu Su is pregnant.
Liu Su is Liu Yonghao's only daughter, and after a hundred years, the assets of nearly 20 billion US dollars in the third room of the Liu family will definitely be left to the child in Liu Su's belly. For Liu Su, cultivating a child close to Nini may be her biggest life goal in the second half of her life.
In the past few years, Nini's performance in language learning, piano learning, communication etiquette, etc. has surpassed people's perception of a 10-year-old girl, and Xu Mengyao and Xiao Feng have also become the most envious objects of many young mothers.
After being pregnant, Liu Su hopes that she can give birth to smart and lovely children like Nini and Yu'er, during this time, Liu Su has been raising a baby in Beverly's manor, and she came to Xu Mengyao every now and then, naturally she also wanted to be sticky and happy.
The TV director swept around the stands, and at least 30 rich people came to the list of China's richest people, and these rich people can almost form a high-end business delegation, and even the president of the United States does not dare to take it lightly.
To this end, Mr. Li Minghua, the consul of the Consulate General of the Chinese Empire in Los Angeles, also came to the stadium to accompany these entrepreneurs who have huge influence in the Chinese business community to watch the game, and the attitude of serving the people can be seen at a glance.
Overseas, Xiao Feng has also met a lot of consortium representatives in the United States, including George Morgan of the Morgan family, Smith Walton of the Walton family, John Jr. of the Rockefeller family, Andy of the Dupont family, etc., they almost represent most of the forces behind the scenes in the United States.
Over the years, Xiao Feng has helped the heads of many wealthy families in the United States with the help of the 'Space Spirit Spring', so that they can extend their health and lifespan, which undoubtedly gives Xiao Feng an extremely special status in the United States. The rapid expansion of 'Jinghu Group' in the United States is inseparable from the silent support of these old giants, and the exchange of interests is the eternal theme of this world.
Of course, in addition to political and business celebrities and entertainment superstars, the most eye-catching people in the stands are the big-name sports stars, both retired and active, who have huge fan bases around the world.
Naturally, the TV broadcasters are also aware of the weight of these sports celebrities, and frequently switch the camera to the stands and give close-ups of these celebrities, which also makes many fans excited.
Ross Barkley, Miller, O'Neal, Kenny and other NBA legends don't just sit in the stands, they are live commentators for ESPN, ABC and Sky Sports, providing exciting live commentary to English-speaking fans around the world.
Jordan, the god of basketball, is here, and some people say that Xiao Feng will have a chance to break Jordan's playoff scoring record of 63 points in this finals, and Old Man Qiao can't sit still.
As Xiao Feng's former teammate, Kobe Bryant naturally will not miss the finals, and the picture of him and Old Man Joe sitting side by side in the stands has also been recorded by many media, which is enough to form a series of reports. For Kobe, who provoked Jordan on the court back then, it was also interesting to be able to sit and watch the game with his idol and opponents who were determined to catch up after retiring.
Many of the Lakers' celebrities also came, and Xiao Feng provided the best positions for these celebrities, and his humane gesture also won the unanimous praise of fans.
In addition to basketball legends, sports superstars such as Phelps, Tiger Woods, and Tom Brady, who have huge popularity in the United States, appeared in the stands, which shows the huge influence of this game.
Of course, among the many sports stars, a group of guests from Europe were the most eye-catching, as they not only brought their families with them, but also brought four trophies!
Newcastle United, who had just beaten Juventus in the Champions League final to win the Champions League for the third time in a row, made a collective appearance at the Staples Arena under the leadership of manager Alan Shearer and general manager David Beckham, and became the focus of the audience.
This season, Newcastle United continued their amazing form last season, although they lost a total of four games in the league and the Champions League, they still achieved the great goal of defending the 'quadruple crown', setting a series of records in international football.
Now, they came to Los Angeles with four trophies, just to cheer for their boss Xiao Feng, and their appearance immediately made the whole scene boil.
For fans familiar with the Lakers, Newcastle United and the Lakers are like two brothers, and although they are very far apart, they share the same sportsmanship in competing for the title.
Newcastle United's invincibility in European football is undoubtedly a source of encouragement for the Lakers' players, and when the four trophies appear at Staples Arena, the atmosphere in the stadium becomes even hotter!
The appearance ceremony began, and the cheers of the tsunami made the fans familiar with Staples Arena feel a little unfamiliar, and the stars, middle-class and wealthy people who were originally gentle and elegant to watch the game seem to have become as fanatical as the blue-collar workers of Auburn Hills Palace, perhaps this is the strong momentum that the Lakers have accumulated in the past three years of invincible.
James felt the enthusiasm of Los Angeles, and secretly told himself that the last chance to defeat Xiao Feng was this year, and if he missed it again, he would always have regrets!
When Xiao Feng walked out of the players' tunnel for the last time, the atmosphere of the scene reached its peak, the roof of the stadium was almost overturned, and the 20,000 fans of the entire stadium shouted the title of 'MVP' to their idols, which was exciting!
Finally, after many steps, the first game of the NBA 17-18 Finals season finally kicked off, and the defending champions faced the challenge of the Cavaliers, the opponent of the Finals in the past three years, which may be the prelude to the change of dynasty.
No team has ever been able to achieve three consecutive championships since the Lakers of the 'OK Combination', can Xiao Feng create this miracle this year and draw a successful end to his short NBA career?
Everything will be known in the next half month!(To be continued.) )
