0252: [Idol with a difference]

"I'm probably around 80 out of more than 400 players in the NBA."

Li Zhen sat on the balcony of his living room, and he saw the neon lights of Los Angeles in front of him.

Actually, it's not much to see.

Wang Daozheng, who came from Beijing, felt that the luxury of Los Angeles did not seem to have any advantage over the capital, which was under vigorous construction for the Olympics. It's as if Li Zhen, as the hottest sports star in China, actually lives in an apartment, not a mansion in Beverly Hills.

This is too much for him to imagine. You must know that Li Zhen is now a well-deserved point guard god in the East Asian basketball circle. The Japanese call him Rukawa Kaede, the Koreans call him Zhenzhen Oba, the Chinese are more talented, what Xiao Li Feidao, the jade-faced fox, the truth emperor ... All crowned on his head.

For domestic fans, Li Zhen's shock this season has far exceeded that of Yao Shu: his rookie season is much stronger than Yao Shu. Not to mention breaking records one after another, there are also all kinds of slap provocateurs in the face... Chinese journalists are most fond of making up face-slapping stories, which bring a lot of spiritual nourishment to Chinese fans.

Of course, the most intuitive reason is: Lee is really a defender, and his height makes ordinary fans more recognizable. Coupled with his miraculous ball control skills and whimsical passing, he gained a group of fans from the streets.

In addition, the handsome appearance and the scandals that come out from time to time have also made some girls join this sequence.

"Ranked 80???"

The reporter stared at Li Zhen with wide eyes, which was too big a gap for him.

"My fitness, my fights, my projections are all the reasons why I can't go any further." Li Zhen spread out his palms, and he dissected himself very seriously: "The American media belittled me too low, and the Chinese media praised me too high." Take an intermediate value between the two, and you can probably get an objective evaluation. I think so. ”

Li Zhen did not pretend to promote himself in front of the camera, although he knew that he had been pushed to a high position on the Chinese side, and he only needed to perfunctory to satisfy everyone in the face of this routine problem.

But Li Zhen didn't do it: "I want me to show the real me in front of the domestic fans. ”

When Li Zhen's attitude was clarified, the following interview became very smooth.

He answered every question from reporters straightforwardly.

Although he knew that the journalist was trying to make him a 'perfect teen idol', he seemed a bit of a 'deviant'.

When asked what it was like to be admitted to Harvard at the age of 16, his answer was unexpected.

Normally, if it is a Chinese college entrance examination champion, they will say something modest, or inspirational.

But Li Zhen didn't.

"I didn't study very hard, I just thought all the topics were easy. I entered Harvard at 16 because I didn't take the exam at 15, and in fact, it wouldn't be too far off to bring the age forward to 14. ”

"I don't think anyone else can learn anything from me, everyone's talent is different. I don't want to be a role model for anyone, friends who are facing the college entrance examination in front of the TV, just relax and be yourself. ”

When asked how he became Facebook's second-largest shareholder, his answer was even more unconventional.

Normally, others will brag about their insight, or how good their computer skills are, or even tell some metaphysical stories.

"I just happened to have a sum of money at that time, and that money has been accumulating since I was very young, including scholarships and New Year's money. Then it was around that time that I was very interested in computer games and was very good friends with Dustin. When he beat me ten times in StarCraft in one night in a row, I decided to learn from him. And then we played together, and my amazing learning skills came into play at that point, and I started maintaining their website, and when they went into an economic crisis, I took the money out: because I thought the atmosphere was good and I didn't want to go bankrupt. ”

"So, don't go out of your way to find any opportunities for wealth. Young friends, find a good group of friends with similar interests, and then support them when they need it, and there's a good chance you'll be lying down and succeeding. That's how successful I am. ”

Forehead....

The reporter was a little confused.

We want to hear the story of a Harvard genius student who is inspired to start a business and turn stones into gold, why do you say it so easily?

But it's that easy.

Except that last spring, when he was in dire need of money, he planned to cash out his shares in advance.

Thankfully it wasn't, thanks to that long nightmare.

"I did encounter some colored eyes at Stanford, including what is rumored to be... The story of being cut from the squad is also true. I was good for nothing, then I got strength from a nightmare, my efforts started to pay off, then I jumped at the chance that fate gave me, and I became the basketball star I am today. ”

Li Zhen concluded with a light breeze at the end.

After the camera was turned off, reporter Wang told Li Zhen and Bill Duffy that if this episode of the show is approved, it will be broadcast the night after tomorrow. That is, just before Christmas.

In recent years, the pursuit of these foreign festivals in China has become more and more intense, and more and more girls have joined the lineup of 'although I don't know what this festival means, but my boyfriend should buy me a gift', and it is not easy to only give crystal apples.

"So, when will your sneakers be available in China? Now domestic fans, including East Asian fans, are very eager to wear your shoes for the first time. ”

Wang Daozheng asked a personal question.

He's a die-hard sneaker enthusiast, and he can't wait to get a pair of Lee Jin's signature shoes.

And Li Zhen also fulfilled his request later. He asked Wang Daozheng to choose a pair of sneakers from him, and what surprised Li Zhen was that reporter Wang did not choose the sneakers that had not been worn in the new packaging, but took away the sneakers that had been worn N times and the upper was even wrinkled.

"It's original!"

Forehead....

Li Zhen was a little unable to understand this kind of behavior.

What made him even more incomprehensible was that when the news spread, there were even crazy fans in China who were willing to spend tens of thousands of yuan to buy.

This is tens of thousands of yuan in 06, and Beijing can buy a toilet.

But what's even more ridiculous is that Reporter Wang actually doesn't sell it.

……

The CCTV interview was just a small episode in a long season for Li Zhen, who remained focused on the game.

At the time, the thing that surprised him was. The Black Mamba actually made an early comeback.

Because Mr. Shark, the best showman in NBA history, has made remarks against the Black Mamba on the South Coast.

When he was elected as an honorary police officer in Miami and wore a XXXXXXXXXL police uniform, he talked about Kobe Bryant without warning: "Dwyane is the best guard I've ever worked with, and he's the MVP of the Finals. Some people get three championship rings behind my ass and still don't have an MVP trophy. ”

"The Little Foxes in Los Angeles are proving another thing, that the Lakers can make the playoffs without Kobe."

"The Lakers should give Bryant two tickets to the tropical islands, which is a good thing for Vanessa, for the Lakers, and for the fans."

The shark taunts all over the place.

It immediately attracted everyone's attention, and the media still relished the bad drama of the collapse of the OK group.

With the Heat winning the championship last year, more and more people think that the Lakers made the wrong choice back then: they should keep O'Neal, and maybe now they have two more championships.

These contrasts, coupled with O'Neill's provocation.

The Black Mamba went berserk and appeared in the pre-match training hall in a cold state. And forcibly passed the assessment of the medical team, and then did not forget to buckle two on the head of the little shark during the training to show his toughness.

The baby shark was depressed about this.

He didn't know what he was doing wrong. Why did O'Neill offend you, but it was me who was hurt? Is there a shark just because of my nickname? Is it because I'm also a seven-foot center from New Jersey?

Bynum was so aggrieved that he even wanted to cry.

But it can't be helped, Kobe Bryant will always have a few days a month.

Kobe's sudden return caught Li Zhen off guard.

For the past half a month, he has been the sole master on the court. The basketball is in his hands from the backcourt until the final offensive arrangement.

He has absolute sovereignty.

That's why his numbers are rising.

But now, he's starting to feel sick.

This discomfort carried over from the pre-match half-time training to the game.

……

The Golden State Warriors are undoubtedly menacing. The gangster lineup, crafted by Mad Scientist Nelson Sr., is now doing everything in its power to grab a playoff ticket, and their offense is in full swing. The likes of Byron Davis, Harrington, Stephen Jackson and even Montaelis all have a lot of offensive firepower, and they are extremely good at cutting through defense quickly in the transition between offense and defense.

Originally, under the leadership of Li Zhen, the Lakers' offensive firepower was also very strong.

Under the prediction of the Los Angeles media, this should also be a magnificent battle against the soaring.

But Bryant's comeback slowed down the Lakers' offensive tempo, and they frequently fell into the ground to fight.

Li Zhen's disadvantage was magnified when the speed suddenly slowed down and the ball was reduced, and his confrontation was grabbed by Byron Davis.

Although he also had bright eyes in this game, including a beautiful two-line tie-up with Kobe Bryant, Li Zhen threw the basketball high in the back of his head when he counterattacked, and Kobe Bryant soared into the sky to complete the tacit bombing campaign with violent slams.

But this tacit understanding did not carry over to the positional battle, and the Black Mamba is a player with his own system, or he is a player above the system.

And recently, as Li Zhen has grown, he has also become a player with his own system.

The Purple and Gold Army has a situation where one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers.

In the end, Kobe Bryant played 36 minutes in his first game, scoring 41 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, proving that he is still the most terrifying scoring guard on the planet.

It's a little regrettable because he forced a three-point shot at the penultimate minute and 25 seconds, allowing the opponent to seize the opportunity to hit a three-pointer, thus losing the possibility of recovering the score.

Li Zhen did not play well in this game, he only got 9 points, 8 assists, 2 rebounds and 1 steal. Among them, 4 points and 5 assists were still obtained with Kobe Bryant resting.

This makes things extremely obvious.

The news of Kobe Bryant's feud with Li Zhen was instantly permeated in the major authoritative basketball media under the influence of well-intentioned people.

Many experts have analyzed that Li Zhen and Kobe Bryant will break up sooner or later, and they have no common language at all. How can a combination of a shooting guard who is on the rise, a breakout point guard who needs the ball in his hands to function, and a head coach who is not good at using point guards from start to finish?

Amid the turmoil of public opinion, the Los Angeles Lakers set off for Miami.

And this time... Bill Duffy and some Nike executives traveled to Miami with him, and Li Zhen's sneakers were about to be released in North America.
