60. Continue to fool the little fat man

"Ace, you accompanied Dinah to the parent-child event today? You really love her, you treat her as your own daughter. Alexia quipped.

"If I can have such a beautiful daughter, how beautiful my wife is, probably only a beautiful girl like you, senior sister, can neutralize my genes."

"Huh...... You're kidding again, but it's a pleasure to hear! You take Dinah in first, Dinah can find the classroom, I'll pick up the other students, and I'll talk to you later. ”

"Okay, I'll see you later."

"Goodbye Teacher Aida......"

After Dina finished speaking, she pulled Liu Mang to the classroom.

Liu Mang had a feeling that he felt very strange, it seemed that Dina Lori didn't like to talk too much to Alexia.

However, from the gate of this school to the classroom, it is really a little far, the corrupt American imperialists, a primary school is so big.

Seeing a lot of parents who were dressed very decently, Liu Mang was very glad that Dinah forced him to wear a formal suit, and changed into the suit that Coach Kruger gave him during the draft, otherwise it would be too embarrassing to wear a T-shirt, cotton shirt and jeans, although this suit of thousands of dollars is still very different from those clothes that other parents know at a glance that they are custom-made, but at least there is no shame to say.

When I arrived at the classroom, there were already quite a few people inside, and there were more than 20 students in Dinah's class, plus parents, there were already about 30 people.

As soon as he entered the classroom, a little fat man rushed over.

"Ace! You're finally here! You come and tell them, tell my dad, I didn't lie, you said I would be a superstar in the future! ”

Liu Mang was startled, looking at the little fat man who grabbed his trouser leg, if the other party was not a child, he really wanted to kick it away, this expectant look was too full of affection!

Seeing that the other students and parents in the classroom were looking at him, Liu Mang looked at the little fat man again, and suddenly remembered what Dina said, and began to laugh evilly in his heart.

Liu Mang showed a blank expression: "This classmate, who are you?" ”

Devin Booker, the little fat man who was expecting to "prove himself", was dumbfounded.

"Ace! We met last week! You forgot? You, you, you, you, you ......" Devin Booker couldn't even speak.

"Haha, Devon, Ace is kidding you." A muscular man in his 30s walked over and smiled.

It should be the father of the little fat man, because this uncle looks too similar to Devin Booker, just like the little fat man more than ten years later, Liu Mang put away his joking expression and said, "Hello, are you Devon's father?" I'm Dinah's Godfather, and I'm at a parent-child event with her today. ”

"Hello, my name is Melvin Booker, Devon's father. I thought Ace, you're only 19 years old, how can you have such a big daughter. Booker, who was one year older, laughed.

"Melvin Booker, 30 years old, undrafted in 1994, got a short contract with the Rockets and Nuggets, joined Serie A in 1996, returned to the NBA in 2000 and got a short contract with the Heat, and is now a free agent."

The system suddenly popped up and introduced Liu Mang to the information of Devin Booker's father.

No wonder Devin Booker was so powerful, it turned out that he had a father who was an NBA player, had good genes, and because his father was not a star, he was not as rich as Jordan, and he would not have no motivation to struggle like Jordan's son.

This is probably the reason why it is difficult for the descendants of superstars to produce a star, but it is easier for the descendants of ordinary players to become stars.

Knowing Devin Booker's father's information, Liu Mang made a look of sudden realization: "Melvin? Oh, I remember, you played for the Heat last year, and I just happened to see your game. ”

"It's a real honor, I'm not as good as you, I've played for so long, and I haven't scored as many points as you have in a few games."

"Of course, I'm the best rookie."

"Haha, you are different from other Chinese, you are not modest at all." Melvin Booker was not angry either, laughing.

"I think your son will definitely be better than you in the future, and he looks more confident than you." Liu Mang also knew that you had to be more direct when talking to these black people, otherwise others would think that you looked down on them.

"Of course, my son will definitely enter the NBA in the future, he must be better than me, maybe you can still play in the NBA, I can't, I will go back to Europe next month to find a job, I may not have the opportunity to play against you on the court, it's a pity." Melvin Booker is somewhat self-deprecating.

"It's not bad to go to Europe, they give more money......"

"That's right, you can also go to Europe to pan for gold when you are older, except for the Yugoslav players, their level is really average......"

After chatting for a while, I saw that other parents were coming, and the two were about to return to their seats, and it was supposed to be breakfast soon.

At this time, the little fat man pitifully pulled Liu Mang and asked, "Ace, you said that I would become a star in the future, right?" ”

"Yes, but you're too fat, you definitely haven't practiced shooting all the time, keep shooting, and you'll become a superstar!" Liu Mang continued to flicker.

"I see! I've been shooting basketball ever since! The little fat man was happy all of a sudden, and after speaking, he went to show off with his classmates.

"Uncle, you are so bad, you lied to that dead fat man again." Dinah Lori said.

"Maybe this little fat man will really become a star in the future."

"Dinah doesn't believe ......"

……

Parent-child activities, in fact, are very simple, eat breakfast together, breakfast is a bit troublesome, the United States is also a big Christian country, you have to pray before breakfast, Liu Mang didn't pray, just closed his eyes and listened to others, his mouth symbolically moved.

After breakfast, the morning is followed by a class.

In elementary schools in the United States, what is taught is really simple, that is, storytelling, teaching addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, and handicraft classes.

During this period, Liu Mang found that many parents who looked like rich landowners had allocated money to discuss business matters together, and most of them were like this, as if only he and Devin Booker's father, Melvin Booker, did not get together in a small circle.

Thinking about it, Liu Mang also thinks it's normal, the poorest people in this classroom are probably the two of them, and the others are either rich or expensive, and they are definitely not as enthusiastic about these two little athletes as their children.

Compared with Liu Mang, who signed several children, those parents were very cold.

But what can it be, a sports star looks very good, but it has not reached the superstar level, in the eyes of many rich people, it is just a physical seller with developed limbs and a simple mind, who eats young, and his education level is basically not high, and many universities have not been completed.

Liu Mang guessed their mentality and didn't get angry, it was purely helpless, you can't care what others think, right?
