Sun Hao listened and nodded from time to time.

"How old are you?"

He looked at Gu Yi one last time.

If it weren't for the fact that the other party would be so persistent in finding himself, Sun Hao would have a feeling that the other party would also be the same as himself.

"25, but I've been exposed to these since I was 15, and I've seen a lot of stories on Wall Street, and I've seen people come out of the stock exchange and 'bang' directly, and I've also seen people throw a lot of dollars on the street."

Just a few words, Gu Yi made movements as he spoke, as if he had told all his life experience.

Sun Hao listened to half of it and believed half of it.

He could feel that Gu Yi was very smart, and he couldn't believe everything a smart person said, especially if he wasn't very familiar with it.

"I can hire you, but you have to get my consent before you can make a decision."

Sun Hao finally made a decision.

Although he didn't fully believe in Gu Yi, Gu Yi's ideas basically met his requirements.

In this world, you can't ask others to do things for you, and you want them to do 100% to meet your requirements.

Fu Paul, plus Gu Yi, has these two people in his team, and the think tank is enough.

Gu Yi went to prepare the contract, and before leaving, he gave Sun Hao a suggestion.

"I think it's better for you to buy sunglasses and wear a hat when you go out, and don't easily tell others who you are, this is the United States, not the country."

When Gu Yi left, Sun Hao went next door to buy sunglasses.

Free America, gunfights every day.

Gu Yi has been here for a long time and has experienced a lot, so there is no harm in these suggestions.

Especially as his popularity continues to increase, this aspect will become more and more important.

In the future, I guess I'll have to consider bringing a bodyguard or something.

After buying his sunglasses, he called Fu Paul, who happened to be in Brooklyn on an errand.

After making the call, Sun Hao sat in the café and waited.

He sat by the window, and there was a lot of traffic outside the window.

This is Broadway in New York.

Unlike the narrowness of Wall Street next door, and like its literal meaning of "wide", Broadway runs north and south through Manhattan and is the busiest street.

He even remembered what Barkley had said when he made a bet with Kenny Smith.

His daughter, Christina, should have received the hat from his Uncle Kenny on her birthday.

"Excuse me."

At this moment, Sun Hao turned his head when he heard the voice.

The first thing that caught his eye was a certain hat.

It must be a tall, red-white-blue top hat.

Sun Hao bet that this hat is definitely not the one Barkley said, and it is not even American.

Because it has a strong sense of nationality, it is very similar to that of Europe.

And her dress is also a bit exaggerated, with a wide skirt like the costume of the European aristocratic group in the movie.

It's out of place with the surroundings.

The man wearing the hat looked up, and Sun Hao saw a face.

It's just that because of the hat, only a small part of the face can be seen.

At this time, Sun Hao felt that what Gu Yi said earlier was really reasonable, just having such a hat was enough to hide his identity.

But judging from the size, this is about a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl.

"I'm from Hungary and I'm lost."

The girl's voice sounded very comfortable, and after finishing speaking, she sat down opposite Sun Hao.

Sun Hao originally wanted to say that there was someone, but when the girl said that she was lost, he felt that it was too cruel to say that.

"I'm not a New Yorker either, but I can help you ask where you want to go."

Sun Hao is often more enthusiastic about girls, especially little girls.

The girl said an address, Sun Hao hadn't heard it, and he called Gu Yi.

Gu Yi spent most of his time in New York, and he quickly gave Sun Hao the method of going, and Sun Hao also conveyed it to the girl.

"You're such a nice guy, thank you."

The girl got up, took off her hat and thanked Sun Hao.

This way of thanking is very national.

When the other party took off his hat, Sun Hao saw the face through his sunglasses, and he felt a little familiar with his face in a trance.

He took off his sunglasses, but the other person was already wearing a hat.

But just after he took off his sunglasses, the girl seemed to be stunned.

"You're Sun?"

Yikes!

Sun Hao felt that he shouldn't have taken off his glasses.

This one was picked up and it was recognized.

However, he remembered Gu Yi's reminder earlier.

The other side is just a person who doesn't even count as a first time meeting.

And he was dressed so strangely.

"No, you're mistaken, I'm just a tourist."

Sun Hao put his sunglasses back on and replied.

The other party looked at him for a while, and finally turned to leave.

……

A small episode, Sun Hao didn't pay much attention to it.

After waiting for a while, Fu Paul and Gu Yi came back and forth.

Sun Hao introduced the two to each other, and asked Fu Paul to help him review the contract.

After making sure that there was no big problem, Sun Hao signed with Gu Yi.

After this contract is signed, Gu Yi is part of his team.

After the contract was signed, Gu Yi immediately started working, he was now going to help Sun Hao register the company, and he had to prepare other things, and he left soon.

When Gu Yi left, Fu Paul chatted with Sun Hao about endorsements.

In this regard, Fu Paul stands out.

For example, Coke endorsement, he jumped on both sides, constantly prompting Coca-Cola and Pepsi to make endorsement offers.

Although the contract has not been officially signed yet, Sun Hao's offer is already the highest among this rookie.

"Do you think Gu is reliable?"

When he finished talking about business, he couldn't help but take a mouthful.

"It's okay, nothing too big, what's wrong?"

Sun Hao looked at Fu Paul suspiciously.

"I feel like he's a wolf, and he's a very hungry wolf."

Sun Hao was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

This metaphor is very vivid.

To say that Sun Hao's feelings for Gu Yi are almost like that.

However, Fu Paul and Gu Yi are both smart people, and it is normal for there to be some hostility between smart people and smart people.

"I know."

He didn't say much either.

"I'm afraid he'll lie to you, he's too dangerous."

Fu Paul saw that Sun Hao didn't care, but he couldn't help but speak.

Sun Hao smiled.

"Richie, you know that tigers and lions are dangerous, but there are people who keep them in captivity."

Sun Hao also used an analogy.

He is a traverser, not to mention that his character is not afraid of things.

Fu Paul was stunned for a moment.

Because in Sun Hao's parable, he should also be one of the tiger and the lion.

Sun Hao didn't explain much, in fact, Fu Paul and Gu Yi are not much different from him.

After chatting, Sun Hao left with Fu Paul.

Fu Paul has to go back to Brooklyn to deal with his affairs, and Sun Hao has to prepare to go back to Dallas.

As Nelson Sr. thought, the Mavericks had an easy start to the season, but then came a tough one.

He also had to go back early and start preparing.

……

More than ten minutes after Sun Hao left, the girl in front of her went and returned.

Although she still wears sunglasses, she has changed her outfit.

She looked at the location where Sun Hao was before, which was already empty.

She went to the bar and asked, but she didn't ask anything.

She finally left with a disappointed expression.

……

Before you know it, it's the middle of December.

The Mavericks have a 14-5 record after returning from a trip to California, still holding the Lakers in second place in the East.

However, the next half month will be difficult for their opponents and schedules.

They will play the Spurs again at home, followed by a Knicks, then a back-to-back between the Kings and the SuperSonics, and then a back-to-back between the Suns, Jazz and Timberwolves.

This section is a double test of strength and physical strength.

The pressure is current, but the players are in a good mood.

Because in about ten days, Christmas is coming.

Christmas means exactly the same to Americans as the Chinese Spring Festival.

Although the core of the team, Nowitzki, Nash and Sun Hao are not Americans, but the boss Cuban has already said that he will not interfere with dinner this Christmas, but for lunch, he will invite everyone to eat together, and he has prepared a very special gift.

As for what kind of gift it was, Cuban didn't say, which made Sun Hao very curious.

But that won't be revealed until Christmas.

After a day of rest, the Mavericks began their devilish schedule.

At the beginning of the season, the Spurs played against the Mavericks, when Nowitzki was in hot form and scored 27 points against Duncan, but unfortunately the final shot failed.

This time the two teams played each other again, and the Mavericks were clearly targeted.

And not only Nowitzki, but also Sun Hao, he was caught at every turn when he held the ball, and even the defenders delayed him from sharing the ball with various small actions.

Popovich, the old fox, is really better at people's kung fu than anyone else.

The Mavericks eventually lost 76-91.

Nowitzki had 16 points and 8 rebounds, and Sun Hao only had 14 points and 4 assists.

If it weren't for the good performance of the two before, coupled with the good record of the Mavericks, many people would have forgotten that one of them is only 22 years old and the other is only 18 years old.

However, compared to their brothers, Nash's performance was even more sluggish, with 7 points, 5 assists and 3 turnovers.

After a day off, the Mavericks went on to play the Knicks.

Although the Knicks are gone, their overall strength is not weak.

The two teams played until the last minute, with Nowitzki hitting a key three-pointer and the Mavericks going 99-96.

Nowitzki scored a team-high 24 points, and Sun Hao scored 20 points as he picked up his form.

However, Nash's form is still average, with only 9 points and 4 assists.

After playing the Knicks, the Mavericks followed up with two back-to-back games against the Kings and the SuperSonics, only to lose both games.

Adelman and the Kings became bitter masters for Nelson Sr. and the Mavericks, and the SuperSonics learned to play against the Mavericks with the Spurs.

Sun Hao's performance also fluctuated.

It's clear that as he progressively highlight, opponents are looking at him.

They don't value the face of the star as much as Phil Jackson, and they know that Sun Hao likes to use blocking, so they all change to a flexible big man to change the defense against him.

Although Sun Hao can also rely on getting rid of scoring, the decline in scoring efficiency is inevitable.

And slowly they also found that Sun Hao's passing ability was not as good as they imagined, and the bag began to come up.

The rookie wall that Barkley said, although it was a little late, was still rolling in dust and surging towards Sun Hao.

Of course, as Su Qun said, Sun Hao played very smart, and his performance was not so explosive after being targeted, but the score was actually not small.

Compared to him, Nash is the more sluggish one.

After the Mavericks started this hard schedule, no, from the beginning of that Lakers game to be exact, Nash's performance dropped a lot.

In the previous 18 games, he averaged 14 points and 6.3 assists per game, and only averaged 2.1 turnovers per game.

But in the past four games, he has averaged only 9.2 points and 4.6 assists per game, and the turnover has become 2.9.

And the shooting rate + three-point shooting rate has also dropped from the previous 48.7%+40.6% to 41.5%+35%.

With Christmas approaching, the Mavericks' record went from 14-5 to 15-8 and dropped to sixth in the West.

Although they had been mentally prepared before, when the team's results really declined, the team was still filled with a sense of frustration.

At this moment, the media, which had long watched the Mavericks' displeasure, could finally take a bad breath at this time.

"Man, offense wins the box office, defense wins championships."

In TNT's latest episode, Barkley once again shouted his wise words into the camera.

"Dirk I can only shoot Nowitzki, and when he doesn't feel good, he's a wriggling German fat intestine."

"Sun hit his rookie wall, madness is no longer crazy, the little emperor has been pulled off his throne, and he is only left with a few blind handfuls to throw around."

"Steve Nash, I don't know anything about defense, I can't even forget how to attack!"

Barkley seized the opportunity and showed no mercy.

When Kenny Smith asked him if it was too much to say that, Barkley ended up with a concluding word.

"Jumpers, they're never going to win a championship, and they may not even make the playoffs."

As a historical-level low-post master, he has never been dismissive of this kind of team that relies on outside shooting and completely depends on the sky.

History is also his most powerful assistant, and there has never been a team that has won a championship entirely on offense.

The rhetoric quickly spread among the fans.

And on the side of the United States, it has also attracted a large number of fans to echo it.

"I've been watching the Mavericks unhappy for a long time, shooting and shooting, they seem like they're always going to shoot! God is fair, they can't keep throwing the ball in! ”

"That's right! Look at the game against the 76ers in the first place, if it wasn't for their luck, the first 40+ night of my season would have been ruined? ”

"Don't talk about it, that kid from Asia is all lucky, and the first 40+ night of my card was also ruined by him!"

"And the old Nelson's drunkard, what kind of shark hacking is playing, that's simply a loophole play, if it wasn't for shark cutting, my lake might lose to them?"

"The rookie boss named Cuban also said that he would buy a plane for the team, what would he do besides bragging? Don't look at how much he is worth! ”

"It's hard to describe the city of Dallas, this kind of team is a perfect match there."

……

The fans are more realistic than Barkley, you must know that in the United States, after Jordan's retirement, a hundred flowers bloomed, and the fans were divided into several large pieces.

The Mavericks beat the Raptors again, reversed the 76ers again, and used the shark to deal with the Lakers, which offended the most popular teams.

The media belittled, the fans attacked, and for a while, the Mavericks became the target of public criticism.
