Chapter 62: Lin Han's Fans
"Amin, what are you looking at? So fascinating? Hey, are you kid able to read the newspaper citations now? It's still the New York Times, yes."
On November 2o, 1993, Chinatown, Manhattan, New York, USA, as one of the largest Chinese settlements in the United States, with the reform and opening up on the other side of the ocean, more and more Chinese gold diggers went to the United States to New York, and the population of Chinatown, which was originally only 100,000, has now exceeded 5o and began to approach the number of millions.
Even these Chinese in Manhattan, New York, slowly drove out many European immigrants and Jews who originally occupied this place, so that the entire Lower Manhattan District, that is, the southern Manhattan District, has truly become a Chinese town, if which race in the world has the most social viability and competitiveness can be seen from the changes in Manhattan's Chinatown in New York, as long as the Chinese are given a chance, they can thrive in any harsh competitive environment, which has been the case since ancient times.
Although the Chinese who have just come from the other side of the strait in New York's Chinatown still belong to the middle and lower classes of New York in terms of living conditions and economic capabilities, it is clear that, like many other Americans, these new immigrants from the United States quickly integrated into the life of this land after coming to this land.
Especially in the recent period of this year, for these Chinese in Chinatown, they can always find a Chinese name called 'Lin Han' in major newspapers in the United States, and this Chinese NBA player named Lin Han has become the pride of almost all Chinese in Chinatown.
For these people, it is not difficult to survive in a difficult place, it is not difficult to create wealth and find wealth with their own efforts in a place where there is no wealth, and they can change things that they do not have in the material, but some spiritual things are not something that can be created if you want to create a zĂ o.
Especially in the United States, in this country where the Chinese Exclusion Act has not been repealed, it is too rare for a successful Chinese to appear in the center of public opinion in a real sense, and Lin Han, an NBA player who fled from the other side of the strait and came here like them, has become a kind of sustenance for them, a kind of spiritual sustenance.
Lin Han's recent success in the NBA is like a portrayal and endorsement of their success, just like telling the whole United States that more and more Chinese will appear in this country in various fields in the future.
"Is the NBA's Weekly Best announced again this week? I'll see, oh my God, it's incredible that Lin Han actually became the best of the week again, winning all three games, averaging 41 points per game in three games, shooting 46.2% per game, Lin Han actually beat Barkley to defend the best of the week, it's incredible"
In this Chinese restaurant called Fugui Restaurant, two Chinese young men are holding a newspaper and cheering loudly, as if this player named Lin Han defended the title of the best of the week, as if they defended the best of the week.
"Ah Ming, Ah Hui, what are you yelling, pick vegetables for me, do you want to get a salary, you will yell tonight"
"Hehe, Uncle Wang, I heard that Arwen and they went to pick up the Utah Jazz, do you say they can get a group photo and autograph, if only Lin Han knew that we have set up a fan club here, so that our fan club can be regarded as official"
"What are you two in a hurry, there is a chance, you can cheer me on tonight, Lin Han has been being ridiculed by those American media recently, we want him to see the power to support him"
"Don't worry, the home of the New York Knicks will definitely be our home stadium"
Crazy, really crazy, since entering the NBA, Lin Han still feels the feeling of being surrounded by fans for the first time, although when he played at home in Utah Jazz before, there will be a lot of Jazz fans around Lin Han after each game to look for autographs, but Lin Han definitely never thought that when he and the team walked out of the airport, Stockton and Malone became supporting roles, and thousands of fans who came to the airport to pick up the airport were all wearing Jazz No. 8 jerseys, Even these fans are holding signs written in Chinese.
When these Chinese fans in New York all shouted Lin Han's name, Lin Han and the entire Jazz team were all stunned, for the Jazz players, they are not people who have never seen the world, like Malone and Stockton are superstars of the Dream Team, frequent visitors to the NBA All-Stars, what world has not seen?
When they went to the world with the Dream Team, the whole world was crazy, but even so, both Malone and Stockton were extremely shocked.
According to their words, when they went to Europe to play with the Dream Team, it was nothing more than that.
And when they knew that these fans who came to pick up the team were fans of the Linhan Fan Club, they were even more envious and jealous, you know, although they also have fan organizations like the Fan Club, but most of these fan organizations are from Utah, in the United States, the regional concept is extremely strong, not many New Yorkers like the Jazz, Stockton and Malone can't have such a large group of people in New York to get him a fan organization.
So when Lin Han and Jazz returned to the hotel where the team stayed all the way, both Malone and Stockton sneered at Lin Han, which was also a smirk that made Lin Han a little painful and happy.
Maybe it's because of being scolded a lot, or because of his selfish character, Lin Han is very pessimistic about whether anyone will like him, at least he thinks that he doesn't care about these, it's better if someone likes it, it doesn't matter if no one likes it, anyway, he doesn't play to make people like it, maybe being hated by others can increase the value of his character, maybe it's better.
But today, when he saw the black fans shouting his name, Lin Han changed his previous concept for the first time, it turned out that it was also a very refreshing thing to be supported and loved, and he felt that what he had done was like being recognized, and the hesitation and helplessness in his heart disappeared instantly.
"Today you not only won the second weekly best trophy, but also gained such a large group of fans, you are really lucky"
Finally, in Lin Han's room, Ma Long lay on the bed in Lin Han's room with some envy and said with a sigh.
"Isn't it just a large group of fans, you should have more fans, and isn't it just a trophy of the week, is it necessary to envy, and it's not the best of the month"
Lin Han angrily threw his package on Ma Long's body, and said with a white look at Ma Long who pretended to be angry.
"Hahaha, Lin, you're wrong, although the fans won't envy Carl, but Carl is very envious of the honor of defending the best of the week."
Stockton, who had been watching the excitement on the sidelines, smiled and continued: "Do you know, the last time he defended the player of the week was back in the 88-89 season, when Jordan played an average of 32+8+8 per game in his career, Jordan won a record 4 times of the week in that season, and when he won the best of the week for the third time, Jordan's average of 4 games per game was a quasi-triple-double, I remember very clearly that it should be a triple-double if the rebound is less than 1, And when Jordan defended the title for the fourth time, Jordan's number seemed to be an average of 3o+1o+1o triple-doubles per game, if Jordan hadn't played an average triple-double per game, the league would not award Jordan the best of the week again, so after Jordan won 2 consecutive weekly bests, the next week, Jordan once again played an average of 3o+11+11 more terrifying triple-doubles, but in the end, the league did not let Jordan win the weekly award for the third time in a row"
"You know, although the best of the week is difficult to get, but the consecutive best of the week is even more difficult, I remember in the history of the NBA since the establishment of the best of the week award since the establishment of the player who can defend the best of the week player, not to mention a handful, in my impression is that Jordan alone has defended the title twice, and you should be the second, you say that this should be envied and jealous, this is not something that can be decided, but also really depends on luck, so next week even if you average 6o points per game, If you don't have a big breakthrough on the table, the league won't give you a third consecutive weekly best award, unless you don't score points and make a triple-double like Jordan, and I remember that in the '88-89 season, Michael regretted that he still had a triple-double that week instead of scoring points."
When Stockton finished explaining to Lin Han, Lin Han was directly stunned, and Stockton at this time was also very satisfied, sample, I was shocked, the water in the NBA is deep, you still have a mix.
If you want to brush three doubles, you can brush three doubles, and if you want to score, you can score, what kind of realm has Jordan reached? How can this make other people live, this guy is a cheater with a basketball system.
Lin Han instantly lost the sense of superiority over Ma Long in the last game, although Ma Long has been trembling in the shadow of Stockton for so many years, but he is really inferior to Lin Han at the level, and was completely despised by Lin Han, but Lin Han suddenly felt that he really did not have any sense of superiority in front of Jordan, the number one brush in history.
If Stockton knew that Lin Han's thinking was focused on this, he would definitely kick him speechlessly, and then shouted loudly, this kid is really fucking unpopular. â
