Chapter 603: The Master has been unhappy lately, so he just vented with you (I)
After a polite opening remark, he quickly got to the point, saying:
"Hot, I hope you can come as soon as possible, I need to do a bone age test on you, of course, I have considered your concerns, this bone age test, only myself and Gary know, will definitely not fall into the ears of a third person. Pen fun pavilion www.biquge.infoOh~ That's right, if you are not included. I don't know what you think? "Jenny. Bass's words were very rhythmic, layer by layer, seemingly unhappy, but it did not give Tang Qian room to interject.
"Bone age test?" Tang Qian was stunned, of course he knew what the bone age test was, this is a test often used in the sports field, the original main purpose was to see how tall young athletes can grow in the end, and now there is a faint new function, that is, to judge whether you have misrepresented your age. The bone age test in the United States is extremely accurate, especially for basketball players, and a lot of clinical experience determines that they have a high degree of confidence in this set.
Although Jenny. Bass publicly supported Tang Qian on the outside, but he still had to do a private bone age test inside.
After all, as a generation of conceited strong women, she is not willing to be deceived herself.
Moreover, it is also a "big variable" that determines future inputs and outputs.
If Tang Qian is really 25 years old, then for the future, she also has to think carefully, if Tang Qian did not make a false report, then she can also increase her investment more assured, so for Jenny. For Bath, this is quite important. However, she was quite thoughtful, and in order to take into account Tang Qian's mood, she specially arranged a "private test", since it was "private", then there was no "everyone knows" problem.
Being forced to do something is actually quite unpleasant, Jenny. Bas thought of this very thoughtfully, which greatly reduced Tang Qian's resistance to this "private test". Tang Qian thought about it for a while and chose to agree, because people openly supported you in the media, and even did not hesitate to go against the general trend, this friendship, he must not forget. So the Lakers' No. 29 replied into his phone: "Yes, Ms. Buss, I don't know when it will be done?" ”
After hearing Tang Qian's affirmative answer, Jenny. Buzz smiled and said softly, "It's just tomorrow, finish it early, and do it early." ”
"Okay, then I'll make time for you tomorrow." Tang Qiandao.
"Okay~ hot, then it won't disturb your rest, you are busy, see you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
With that, the phone hung up.
The next day, Tang Qian was picked up early in the morning by Jenny. Bass's home in Los Angeles is not Beverly Hills, but in another, less well-known affluent area, Holmby Hills. Holmby Hills, Billaire, and Beverly Hills are the wealthy areas of the Platinum Triangle in Los Angeles. Celebrities, celebrities, and rich bosses can be found everywhere here, well, all of them have a necessary common denominator - very rich.
Jenny. Buzz's first impression of Tang Qian was very good, full of kind smiles, generous and decent makeup, it is really hard to imagine such a person, he also took large-scale photo photos when he was young. Uh, it's far away, it's normal to be crazy when you're young, but now Jenny. Bath has long since become a full-fledged big team runner.
The person standing next to her was Tang Qian's old acquaintance, the Lakers' chief team doctor, Gary. Viti.
"Hot, let's go inside, the machine has been moved, and Miss Bass has put a lot of thought into it for this private test." Gary. In private, Victi actually generally refers to Jenny. Buzz was Jenny, but in order to indicate the "solemnity" of the test, he took a more formal title. And his words obviously helped Jenny. Suspicion of "canvassing" in Bath.
This can better see who is the leader of the Lakers' "real popularity".
Tang Qian nodded, and with Gary. Viti walked in.
……
After seeing Tang Qian's film and inspection report, Jenny. Bus's eyes lit up, and she turned to look at Gary. Victi, before he could speak, heard the latter take the initiative to speak: "Don't worry, Miss Bass, I have already double-checked, and I should be able to ensure that the results are not too different." "For Gary. Viti's technical and professional qualities, Jenny. Buzz was still very relieved, so he immediately nodded and said, "Hot, I'm sorry to let you come for this extra check, I hope you don't mind, I sincerely apologize to you here." ”
Jenny. As soon as Buzz saw the results, he immediately became more gentle. Buzz couldn't catch up with her.
"It's okay, Ms. Bass, you are so polite, you have publicly supported me in the media, I haven't thanked you yet!" Tang Qian didn't pretend, and said directly and sincerely. "Haha, hot, don't worry, there will definitely be no third person in today's matter, oh no, it's the fourth person who knows, I promise." Jenny. Buzz said and smiled, "I've got a new Hawaiian Molokai coffee here, do you want a cup of hot coffee?" ”
After Don sneaked away, a gentle smile gradually changed from Jenny. Bass's face vanished as she turned her head to look at Gary. Viti asked, "Gary, is there really no problem?" "Gary. Viti nodded: "Jenny, don't worry, I was a little surprised when I first saw this result, but after repeated checks, I can only believe it." ”
"He's really, he's only about 19 years old now, at least his biological age is only about 19 years old."
"19 years old." Jenny. Buzz suddenly showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "In other words, he is not even 22 years old, let alone 25, right?" "Gary. Viti replied, "Pretty much, unless he's born late, but it's very unlikely that it's negligible." ”
"Gary, do you think if I release this news now, will the value of the hot man go up or down?"
Gary. Viti was stunned, but soon spoke: "I think it should be up, at the age of 19, his potential has not been developed at all, and he is very malleable." "So, I didn't spend any effort on this test today, because I got an exclusive piece of information worth a thousand dollars." Jenny. Bass said: "I really admire my father's vision more and more now, no wonder he will let this hot 'press his handprint' when they meet for the first time, which shows that his father's expectations for him are at least all-star or even superstar." In this way, Howard doesn't have to stay, right? ”
Gary. Witti replied, "Yes, and based on my medical experience, Dwight . Howard's back injury should not be able to return to the pre-injury period. "That is, Dwight. Howard's future career is about to go downhill, right? Jenny asked.
"Well, that's how it should be, if he still plays so physically."
"And what did you and Kupchak say about this news?"
"I didn't hide much about the diagnosis, just changed a few innocuous words a little, and then it seemed to outsiders that there was no hope of recovery." Listened to Gary. Viti's words, Jenny. Bass said: "You have done a good job, you have to look honest on the surface, so that you can paralyze Kupchak and make him plant a big heel in one go!" And I always feel that because of this Oriental boy, my 'superior plan' may have to be implemented in advance. ”
"Really? When are you going to start? "Gary. Waiti asked, stunned.
Jenny. Buzz smiled slightly, shook the inspection report in his hand, and said, "Well, hasn't it already started?" ”
……
Another week has passed, and Tang Qian is still practicing hard and practicing hard, and even has a bit of the meaning of "turning grief and anger into motivation", completely giving up the idea of browsing basketball news on the Internet. Anyway, as long as you have excellent ability, you don't have to worry about not having a ball to play in the future.
Rodman became more and more surprised by Tang Qian's learning speed, and he suddenly discovered that this kid had a very special "talent", that is, "practice immortality"! Don't underestimate this "practice does not die", as I have said before, "being able to practice" is also a kind of talent. Kobe Bryant is the leader of this characteristic, ordinary players want to imitate, it is simply unsustainable, this is not even a matter of will, or hardware, you have no one to "practice".
Forcibly, there is only one way to get injured and practice abolishing it.
In Rodman's opinion, not to mention the yellow race, even if it is a black race, there are few people who can practice like this, every time he is worried that the training intensity is too great, he will. Collapse this Oriental boy, and the next day the latter will be alive and reappear. Moreover, there is no fatigue on his face.
This...... It's kind of incredible.
But his physical fitness is so ordinary, it's really contradictory.
Rodman didn't know about "different space" and "restoring crystal bricks", so he was really a little "confused" about Tang Qian. Tang Qian didn't care what the former thought, he just needed to keep strengthening his practice every day and try to break through one layer before the start of the new season.
However, the further back, the more difficult it is to break through, and after reaching the eighth crystal brick, Tang Qian felt that it was obvious that he was "struggling", and the speed of progress could be called "turtle speed". There is no way to do it, it can only be blamed on Zhang Dashuai's rebounding ability, which is one of the best in history, so Tang Qian wants to approach the peak and not spend a lot of time polishing, which is impossible to do.
Like any free throw, just because Zhang Dashuai is too weak, Tang Qian lifted up very quickly, and he didn't encounter any bottlenecks along the way.
But even if this attribute reaches nine pieces, what can it do? Isn't it the same "bang", so that the parties "want to cry without tears" and "choke speechlessly"? Therefore, the more difficult it is to break through the crystal brick, the higher the value of the breakthrough.
Tang Qian has been dealing with the "different space" for so long, and he has somewhat figured out some "doorways", so that he will not be the same as when he first obtained it, his eyes are black, and he is purely blind.
At the end of June, Tang Qian received a notice from Zhou Zhiru that AND1 Company was going to arrange for him to go to South Korea to do publicity, originally Tang Qian didn't like this kind of thing, but AND1 Company also supported itself some time ago, Tang Qian thought about it carefully, and dispelled his complaining thoughts and began to prepare for this event seriously.
The schedule to South Korea is 5 days and 4 nights, with a total of 3 cities and 14 activities.
First of all, the first stop, not much, is naturally Seoul, the capital of South Korea.
Well, it's the place called Seoul before.
Although he felt that he was a little delayed in practicing, after experiencing this "internal and external turmoil", Tang Qian's high sensitivity to the AND1 company rose sharply, so slowly, he paid more and more attention to his identity as the chief spokesperson of AND1. At least for AND1 company, Tang Qian will try to cooperate and try to do a good job of his "business image".
This is also the success of AND1's "human favor card".
Future Seth. Berger even boasted about this matter, thinking that he had done the most worthy "show-off" "support" in his life. Without this step, Tang Qian would not have followed AND1 until he retired. After all, Nike Adi is not a fool, and after seeing that No. 29 was gradually becoming worthy, they immediately invested heavily in digging into the wall, but No. 29 was unmoved for the rest of his life.
This time, the "strong support" of AND1 played a very important role.
This is the fourth country Tang Qian has been to in his two lives combined, and his previous impression of South Korea was all about various Korean dramas, idols, Oba, long legs, cosmetics, and plastic surgery. It was the first time he had personally set foot on the country's soil.
The accompanying personnel include the agent Zhou Zhiru, and the AND1 staff has a total of 37 people. 37 people revolved around one person, this feeling was something Tang Qian had never felt before.
"Tang Qian, this is the basic thing to speak, you have to memorize it! Don't forget! ”
"Hot, you go to this position after you get off the plane later, try not to deviate too far, otherwise our security personnel will most likely not take care of it."
"Hot, these things are the taboo words and taboo regulations of this event that we ADN1 sorted out, you must not answer this one, otherwise it is easy to cause conflicts between cultures and nationalities."
"Hot, it's ......"
This is also the most unsafe life since Tang Qian took the plane, which makes people collapse, and there is almost no time for "complete leisure". Now that I think about it, it's really not easy for big stars like Taylor, and there are countless places to pay attention to in order to take care of their "halo" and "business image".
Alas, fortunately, I am just a basketball player, and my exposure is far inferior to these "entertainment stars", otherwise just to cope with these, my head will be "blown up".
But as soon as he got off the plane, Tang Qian felt a sense of "loneliness", because there were very few "fans" who came to "pick up the plane".
He himself is nothing, he just feels that he has wasted such a big "battle" of AND1.
However, the top person in charge of AND1, Dinah, replied like this, hot, this is not a question of whether the wave is not wasted, this is a question of your "star energy" and "style". Our goal in the future of AND1 is to make you the "number one star" and "number one signboard", if you go abroad for the first time to go abroad for business activities are "weak", wouldn't it make people look down on you? Let people think that our AND1 company is just a skinny bone without meat? So this pomp and circumstance is not only to protect you, but also has other business implications.
Hearing this, Tang Qian's head became bigger, he nodded as if he didn't understand, and then secretly made up his mind that he would never take the initiative to ask this woman any questions again. lest you be dizzy and don't say anything, and be hit by other people's "jargon".
After leaving the airport, the first stop is the main store of AND1 Seoul, and of course, the only physical store in Seoul.
In recent years, due to its own problems, AND1 has shrunk sharply in the world. Berger is ready to make another big gamble on Tang Qian, then the only remaining AND1 flagship store in Seoul will also announce its closure soon, and then be disgraced and taken off the signboard, and completely "get out of South Korea".
Originally, AND1 decided to go to Japan to promote, after all, Japan is a country with strong consumption power in Asia, and the AND1 brand is obviously much better developed in Japan than in South Korea. However, Tang Qian's side strongly resisted this matter, and they could only give up Japan and switch to South Korea.
Because South Korea is also a country with very good spending power.
At least it is much stronger than the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, and Myanmar.
It's just that AND1 obviously hasn't figured it out that the current relationship between China and South Korea, especially the relationship between "entertainment", is actually quite tense. Everything stemmed from a "ban on South Korea" half a month ago, which directly worsened the relationship between China and South Korea. Coupled with the innate "self-confidence of all things" of the "stick", they also began to spontaneously resist the domestic "stars".
Unfortunately, Tang Qian was also included in the ranks of "stars", and in detail, he was called "basketball star".
So after coming to the deserted store, Dinah, the person in charge of AND1's operation, finally felt that something was wrong, and she immediately found the general manager of AND1's Korean region, and after a detailed inquiry, Dina "suddenly realized".
She scolded the head of the AND1 Korea region for being a bloody sprinkler, but the funds were all used up, and it couldn't just be wasted, so she frowned and began to think hard about how to "turn around".
But she really underestimated the power of this "intelligence lag", because the resistance on the South Korean side is far more serious than she imagined. The first campaign ended in complete failure. The group returned to the hotel with a heavy heart.
In the evening Dinah to Seth. Berger reported the problem, but the two discussed it for a long time, and there was no way to solve it.
No way, who called their chief spokesperson a Chinese?
This identity alone is currently an unsolvable situation.
On the second day in Seoul, there was still no improvement at all, and the resistance to AND1 here even reached the point of disgust. Tang Qian himself is really nothing, but he finally got a big contract from someone else, and it's not a matter if he doesn't help find a way.
It was the same on the third day, and it was about the same in Busan.
Until the last day, I arrived in Daegu, which is a light industrial city in South Korea, of course, these are not important, the main thing is that Tang Qian wants to come here to sign a "show" with South Korea's AND1 players. This was originally a very normal business activity, and many sports brands have played like this, and the publicity effect is not bad. But this incident half a month ago has made all the nature of things change subtly.
When Tang Qian and his party rushed to the Daegu Gymnasium, unlike the "deserted" a few days ago, it was crowded with people, and it was even very "lively". But it's a pity, just look at the "slogan" they put out, you can know that this is not for Tang Qian's party.
They are there to cheer up the members of their national team.
That's right, several of the players signed by AND1 in South Korea are members of the current national team.
When Tang Qian got off the bus, he heard some very broken English, which came to his ears, and said, "Chinese Yankee! You will be abused by Jin Zhoucheng tonight! Daegu, South Korea, will be your future nightmare! ”
"Kill the Chinese guys! Rise up! Big stick! ”
"Let Chinese basketball, like football, always fear us!!"
"Kill the Chinese guys! Raise the majesty of my stick country!! ”
If people who don't know come, they think that this is a competition between the Chinese national team and the South Korean national team, and the extreme nationalism here is really better than seeing it. Listening to these words, Tang Qian's face gradually turned cold, and the original work-style smile had long since disappeared.
Even if it weren't for the fact that AND1 had publicly supported himself in the "internal and external turmoil", Tang Qian would have wanted to turn around and walk away. However, he is not the "stunned green" he used to be, he swept slightly, and said to the agent Zhou Zhiru next to him: "There is no saying in the event rules that you can't play, right?" Zhou Zhiru was stunned for a moment, she thought about it, shook her head and said: "There is no such rule, it's just a show, an entertainment event, we ......"
Tang Qian's face showed a sneer for the first time, and said, "A show, an entertainment event? Look at this stance, like? ”
"If people want to play for real, why should I be disappointed? As the saying goes, the locals do as they come, and the guests do as they please, right? ”
"Anyway, I don't have much affection for this Rausch country, so tonight is the right time to teach them a lesson and let them know that the universe was not created by their big stick nation."
After Tang Qian finished speaking, he raised his head again, and then strode into the entrance of the gymnasium.
