The Spring Festival is just around the corner.

In order to better cooperate, the endorsement company gave Zhou Xuan a lot of gifts. The latest laptops, the latest concept sports cars, watches, leather shoes, etc. The Olsen sisters also had some new clothes brought to him.

Now there are two rooms in the apartment dedicated to clothes, one is Zhou Xuan's and the other is Emma's.

Emma pushed off all the publicity work and spent the Spring Festival with Zhou Xuan, she also learned a few words of Chinese, and gave Chinese fans and fans New Year's greetings in an interview with Chinese reporters. The two appeared together to make fans excited. When filming, they also wore red Tang costumes.

Not only Chinese celebrate the Spring Festival, but many British people will also join in the fun. The Times, a well-known British newspaper, launched a 10-day "China Week" to introduce people in Britain and the world to learn Chinese, and even many Chinese characters appeared on the front page of the newspaper.

The Chinese language is spreading around the world, in part because of China's rapid economic development and growing importance in international affairs, and because the Chinese government is actively promoting the Chinese language through the establishment of Confucius Institutes and the sending of teachers abroad.

Many Europeans take Chinese language courses and are very interested in the East. Of course, there are also many British people who complain that the traditional festivals in the UK are gradually weakening, and foreign festivals are slowly becoming popular.

Emma is very interested in Chinese culture, and after being with Zhou Xuan for a long time, she will become a China expert sooner or later. On the 2nd, the Knicks did not play, and Zhou Xuan rested. After waking up in the morning, Emma asked, "What year is it?" ”

"Year of the Tiger."

"How do Chinese celebrate the New Year? Is it also like the British, wearing new clothes and setting off firecrackers? ”

"Is this how you celebrate the New Year over there? That's it, the more traditional Chinese will also hang couplets at the door of the house, paste the word Fu, and then have a meal and a family reunion, which is quite simple. ”

Emma laughed: "I think it's very strange for you Chinese New Year, the date of each year is uncertain, and every year, a new animal will appear to represent what the year is. Does each of us still have attributes? For example, does a dog mean that its personality is very similar to that of a dog? ”

"How is this possible? Are all pigs still the size of Gilmour? Zhou Xuan was stunned.

Emma gently hammered him and asked, "What do we need to prepare?" ”

"It's just the two of us, and we don't need to prepare anything...... Yao Ming and his wife arrived this afternoon, and I wanted to invite them over for dinner, and it was as simple as that. ”

"Any special food?" Emma thinks it's too simple, like Christmas customs, eating turkey on Thanksgiving, which is somewhat distinctive.

Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "Other people may have it at home, but we eat more every day than others for the New Year." Oh yes, there have to be fish. ”

"I know that there is an idiom in China called 'Nian Nian has fish'." Emma said in extremely non-standard Chinese.

"It's a pity that there is a game tomorrow night, so I can't watch a movie with you."

"It's okay, I'll wait for you at home."

February 3 is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and the NBA's official arrangement is very meaningful, Knicks VS Mavericks. The Chinese derby between Zhou Xuan and Yao Ming. The Knicks' home stadium is ready for events, with Chinese shows and lion dances to celebrate the New Year.

Zhou Xuan and Yao Ming have both become All-Star starters and will become opponents.

At present, the NBA announced the starting list of the East and West Divisions of the 2011 Los Angeles All-Star Game, and Zhou Xuan became the league's vote king with a record 3388611 votes.

Bryant? Bryant became the Western Conference ticket king with 2380016 votes.

Eastern starters: Zhou Xuan, Wade, James, Stoudeyer, Howard.

It is worth mentioning that the Knicks have not made an All-Star starter in nearly 20 years, and this time they got two at once. D'Antoni also became the East coach.

Looking at the West again, Bryant was selected as an All-Star for the 13th time. The other starters are Paul, Durant, Blake? Griffin and Yao Ming, the coach of the Western Stars is Popovich.

According to the rules, fans choose the starters, and the substitutes are decided by the coaches of both sides, and the NBA official also announced today the list of 7 All-Star bench players in the East and West, among them, the Boston Celtics have a total of 4 players selected for the All-Star bench lineup, they are Garnett, Ray Allen, Pierce and Rondo, this is the second time in NBA history that a team has 4 players selected and all of them are substitutes.

In 2006, the Pistons' Ben Wallace, Rashid? Wallace, Hamilton and Prince were all named to the All-Star Game bench.

And Garnett also tied O'Neal, Karl? Malone has been named to the All-Star team 14 times in a row.

The other three are Bosh, Derek? Rose and Al? Horford. Joe Johnson, who once started the "Eagle King", regrettably lost the election, reflecting the rise of the East from the side, and it is no longer a tragic situation where no one is available in the Star Game, and there are many outstanding stars inside and outside.

2009 champion Blake? Griffin's first All-Star selection put Anthony on the bench, and although the Clippers had a poor record, Griffin had a lot of popularity with his explosive dunks. Also, Duncan, Ginobili, Nowitzki, Gasol, Delon? Williams and Westbrook were selected.

Lefou, Aldridge, Odom and others with very beautiful inside data are unfortunately out. Outside Parker, Nash and Ellis also failed to make the cut, and the competition is still very fierce.

On the evening of the 2nd, Ye Li followed Yao Ming to New York, and Zhou Xuan invited them to his home as guests and made a table of Chinese food.

In order to take care of Emma, Yao Ming also chats in English, and in Chinese, Emma will feel excluded. This alone makes Emma very impressed.

After eating for a while, Yao Ming smiled and said, "After resting for half a year, I see that your craftsmanship is good." ”

"I couldn't play at that time, so I relied on cooking to practice my wrists."

"I heard you're going to make a movie?" Ye Li asked.

"Hey, how do you know about it? I didn't report this, did I? Zhou Xuan wondered.

"I didn't report it, but 'Pacific Rim' has been advertised as being filmed in Hong Kong, and you're likely to be the starring role, and you and Gilmour are so close, I think it must be true. Now vote online, Chinese fans also want you to act. Ye Li smiled.

Before the filming of this movie started, there were already people paying attention, and Zhou Xuan's influence was very strong.

"Looks like I'm expected. I haven't signed a contract yet, and there is no news from the crew, but I really played that role. Zhou Xuan said proudly.

Emma said: "He's also involved in changing the script, and this character is what he came up with. ”

Yao Ming asked, "Did Emma make this movie?" ”

"No, I'm probably going to make some literary films. Action movies aren't my forte. ”

"Maybe in the future, there will be a director who will let you cooperate when filming a couple scene." Ye Li said.

"Sister-in-law, I'm not a movie actor, I really don't have time after this filming. This time, I also feel that the NBA is going to shut down anyway, and I want to find something to do for myself. ”

After chatting about movies for a while, the topic returned to basketball.

Emma and Ye Li watch movies, Yao Ming and Zhou Xuan switch to Chinese.

Zhou Xuan said: "Brother Yao, which of us do you think can win this time?" ”

"I think it's the Mavericks, we're not weak this season. And Dirk (Nowitzki) is also back, so it's normal to win against you. Yao Ming said and sighed. It's a pity that Butler is injured, and I thought that the Mavericks could hit the championship this year, but there was one less big general, which was really unlucky. ”

"Can't Butler play this season?"

"I guess so." Yao Ming nodded.

Mavericks main small forward Cuarón? Butler suffered a severe injury with a partial tear in his right knee tendon that could cost him the season and even if he was lucky enough to return, he would have won the semifinals or finals. He simply didn't have time to get used to the rhythm, and his comeback didn't help much.

He is averaging 15 points per game this season.4 1 rebound, is the team's No. 3 scorer, Yao Ming is only 14. 6 points.

Now the Mavericks have one option to move Marion to the small forward position, and the other option is to simply use a three-guard formation. In the last game against the Wizards, the Mavericks even let Nowitzki play small forward, and Cardinal played the No. 4 position.

Impactful defender Boibis is also on the injury list. In order to reinforce, the Mavericks also signed Peja, a libero? Stojakovich.

Peja is a good guy in the free market, he wants to join a team with a championship possibility, and finally chooses the Mavericks.

Zhou Xuan smiled: "I hope we can meet in the finals, I think it is very possible for you to break through from the west." The Spurs have a strong regular season record, but after all, they are veterans and their playing time is limited. Once you fight for physical strength in the playoffs, you will show flaws. The Lakers' defense is rotten like that, and I don't think there's much of a threat. The Thunder inside line is average, and you have a good chance. ”

Yao Ming shook his head and said, "Don't forget that we are also a team led by veterans, and I only played 28 minutes." The others are not young either. Kidd felt that if he didn't win the championship again this year, he wouldn't have much chance in the future. ”

The veterans' fight for championship rings is also a good gimmick in the league, and the Mavericks have a lot to watch this year. The Knicks are much younger in comparison. If he really met in the finals, Zhou Xuan would definitely not be polite. They have pitchers who can pull Yao Ming out of the line.

Zhou Xuan was silent for a moment, thinking about the weakness of the Mavericks.

Yao Ming said, "What do you want? ”

"I wonder how to win tomorrow's game. I'm getting more and more confident about breaking through now. ”

"I warn you, don't be like you have to have a convulsion like beating the Lakers, if you pass me too many times, I'll PK with you after the fight." Yao Ming clenched his fists and pretended to threaten.

"I've not been feeling that good lately, and it was a coincidence, and it's amazing to have two or three times a season."

"You seem to have more than three times."

"I mean average player, I'm an MVP." Zhou Xuan said with a smile. Winning the beautiful data, his narcissism level has increased unabated.

Zhou Xuan is very curious about one thing, if he and Maverick really meet in the finals, who will the fans support? It had to be him.
