Chapter 268: For That Goal
When Wei Dazhi came back, it was already late.
After becoming an ESPN reporter, his daily work is not only to watch games, write articles, and tweet, but also to socialize with his circle of friends.
As a journalist, a Chinese rookie journalist, if you want to get a real foothold in the sports media world, you need to invest a lot of time and energy to get to know the management and media people of those teams.
This is especially true in places like Los Angeles.
Wei Dazhi is not the kind of bastard who goes to parties, but many people invite him to parties every day.
The reason is very simple, because he has the resource of Li Liang in his hands.
Anyone close to any star will get extra favor.
Zhu Shu, a girl who doesn't eat oil and salt, no one can please move, so the only way to do this is to invite Wei Dazhi, a greasy fat man.
In a few months, Wei Dazhi has become familiar with the circle and knows many big names in sports, music, fashion, and film.
He is also slightly famous in Los Angeles, and when he attends some events, he will be greeted by people.
So now he has more and more activities of all kinds, so that he doesn't have time to watch the game and flip through the video.
Of course, his mind is still quite clear, and he knows that the source of his fame is Bruce Lee.
Therefore, no matter how hot the wine is and what it looks like to be a brother, Wei Dazhi is tight-lipped about all Li Liang's privacy.
Even if he is drunk like a pig, he is a pig with his mouth zipped.
Today he attended the launch of a rapper's new song, and black sports stars in the United States have always been inextricably linked to the rap world.
Naturally, there must be another burst of bright lights, and it was early in the morning when I got home.
When I opened the door, it was dark inside, and all three of them should have slept.
Wei Dazhi also calmed down and listened attentively, wanting to hear if there was any movement.
"Hey, Li Liang, this kid, he doesn't know how to cherish such a good resource, he could have hugged left and right. I really don't know what's going on in my head, playing basketball broke my brain. ”
Wei Dazhi has always believed that basketball hurt Li Liang's brain as a normal man, and felt sad for him.
I just took off my shoes and walked to the living room to quench my thirst by pouring a glass of water and turning on the lights in the living room.
As a result, as soon as I turned on the light, I found a person sitting on the sofa!
Wei Dazhi was so frightened that he threw out the mobile phone in his hand.
Then he took a closer look and found that it was Li Liang, this guy was sitting on the sofa with headphones plugged in and listening to songs!
"I'm ...... you Forget it, you can do it. Why don't you sleep, you want to scare me to death while sitting here! ”
Li Liang unplugged the earphone cable and said, "Wait for you!" You're a busy person right now, and you don't see anyone every morning or night, and it's not easy to see you once. ”
Wei Dazhi poured a glass of water, took a sip, and said, "Hey, what kind of busy person am I, it's not easy for you to find me, call me, be on call!" ”
Li Liang said: "Okay, okay, I just can't sleep, I want to talk to you." You participate in all kinds of activities every day, can your kidneys eat? ”
Wei Dazhi smiled, "Don't worry, the dragon is alive." Don't talk about me, I have to wonder if you have a problem? Two beautiful women are placed at home as vases? Do you know that those reporters outside want to cover your gossip one by one, and I have a strict mouth and don't say anything. But you think, Zhu Shu is an agent, and she still talks about the past. After all, Bai Xiaoting is also a person in the fashion circle, and she will become more and more famous in the future, you are not afraid of ......"
Li Liang took a look, why did he talk about me again in the end? Hurriedly asked Wei Dazhi to stop.
"Okay, okay, what's wrong with me, what's wrong with me living with two friends? Won't you live with me too? Let me ask you, in the future, are you going to eat and fool around like this every day? ”
"Hey, I'm not fooling, I'm working as a media in Los Angeles, you have to mix circles, I don't know people, where is the news? No, I know more and more friends now, which will definitely be good for me to be a journalist in the future. ”
Li Liang snorted and said, "You flipped through your Twitter and INS accounts, how long has it been since you seriously posted anything about basketball?" It's all messy. I advise you to put your mind on the right path as soon as possible, and mix in circles, you are also worthy? If Lao Tzu is not in Los Angeles, you see who will pay attention to you. ”
Li Liang's words were a bit heavy, but because it was Wei Dazhi, it didn't matter.
But as soon as Wei Dazhi heard the last sentence, a stirring spirit was in his mind, and he said, "What? Not in Los Angeles? What do you mean, you're ...... next season"
Li Liang said: "Not necessarily, it depends on the situation." Anyway, I just want to remind you to put your time and energy into basketball news, dig more, and get in touch with players and team people. Don't play around all day long, it's not good for you, do you hear? ”
Wei Dazhi nodded again and again, Li Liang's opinion has always been obedient to his words.
Li Liang does have a point, as a basketball reporter, the foundation of his life is basketball news.
No matter how much lace you have, no matter how much gossip you have, you're just a peripheral bastard.
"I'm telling you, I'm aiming for the all-time best player, and you're going to be the all-time journalist. Woj is the one you're chasing, you know. ”
Woj's name, Wei Dazhi, has heard of it, and is a great reporter for Yahoo Sports.
He rose to fame in the 2011 draft, announcing the selections of the first few picks before Stern.
In the summer of '12, he was the first to break the news of several major transactions and signings in the league.
Of course, his success didn't happen overnight, but was the result of years of deep involvement in NBA journalism.
In the past two years, thanks to the vigorous development of social media, Woj's fame has grown and has begun to surpass the traditional interviewing reporters of those TV stations.
When Wei Dazhi first entered the industry, he aimed to build his career as a journalist with Woj.
He did a good job at first, but after staying in a place like Los Angeles for a long time, it was inevitable that he would be a little lost.
Li Liang's words in the evening made him enlightened, yes, his target is Woj, not Kardashian.
"I know, from tomorrow onwards, I'm not going to go to all that messy event! By the way, what are your plans for the summer, can you tell me about it? “
When Wei Dazhi heard Li Liang say that he might leave Los Angeles, he thought it was definitely big news.
Li Liangdao: "It's not decided yet, let's talk about it after the playoffs, I have my plans." ”
Of course, Li Liang's plan has to read the City of Angels book, which no one can say.
Wei Dazhi nodded and said, "No matter what team you go to, I will follow you anyway." ”
Li Liang said: "Licking a dog can't die well!" “
"Hey, it doesn't matter~"
……
After talking to Wei Dazhi, Li Liang returned to the room and fell asleep.
Coming to the system, he summoned the [Book of Angel City], opened it to the table of contents, and his eyes stayed on the fourth task.
[The stepping stone for the enthronement of the god of basketball].
Seeing this task, Li Liang immediately knew that this must be the finals in 1991.
Magic Johnson's last peak season before retiring from AIDS, the afterglow of the Lakers' show-time dynasty.
They became the stepping stone for the new king's ascension to the throne, and it was not until 10 years later that they regained their glory.
If you want to complete this task, you must face Michael Jordan.
To beat Michael Jordan in one go, can he do it?
Li Liang didn't know.
He has watched the video of the 1991 finals over and over again, and knows every detail in it.
But he knows that when he gets into the game, things will change.
He needs to think about where the breaking game is.
It must be the defense, do you have to lock Jordan?
Li Liang hadn't figured it out yet, and before he figured it out, he wouldn't start this task easily, after all, there was only one chance.
But he's going to do it, not just for the shield, but he wants to beat Jordan on the court, in the finals.
This is also the reason why he has used fewer props recently, because the tasks of the system are not allowed to use props.
Li Liang sometimes thinks, maybe the systematic task competition is real, right?
