Chapter 286: Iron Man 2 is released
Los Angeles, Hollywood.
Gal Gadot, on behalf of Wang Mingming, attended the premiere of "Iron Man 2".
In the days when "Wonder Woman" was a big hit, DC became the only film company in the superhero series that could wrestle with Marvel, and Gal Gadot, as the star of "Wonder Woman", the new goddess with a global box office of 1 billion, came to participate in the premiere of Marvel movies, which is also amazing.
Of course, everyone knows that Gal Gadot and Wang Tomorrow have reached the point of talking about marriage, and Wang Tomorrow has also been revealed to be one of the shareholders of Marvel.
The hot release of "Iron Man" turned Marvel Studios from a small company on the verge of bankruptcy and owed hundreds of millions to the bank, to an upstart in the Hollywood movie world.
"Iron Man 2" came into being, just like DC will definitely shoot "Wonder Woman 2", if you have money to make and can promote the movie, why not do it?
Marvel Studios invited Wang Tomorrow to attend the premiere, but Wang didn't come over tomorrow, it was the playoffs at this time, even if the King had already won the Thunder in the first round, he still had a lot to do.
And Gail happened to be in Hollywood at this time, and it was Wang Mingming and his wife who were originally invited, so Gail went to the scene by himself, not in the name of the competitor's top star Wonder Woman, but as the girlfriend of Marvel Studios boss Wang Mingming.
Iron Man 2 mainly tells the story of the difficulties caused by Tony Stark after he revealed his identity as "Iron Man".
, change and chaos, and join forces with those around you to fight against the emerging evil forces.
The story is not complicated, but the plot is compact, the special effects are realistic, and the picture quality is outstanding, and it is still a stunning and colorful popcorn movie.
........
The Rockets and Spurs battled it out to Game 7.
So the Kings waited 3 games, almost for a while.
It's not a whole week, it's a combination of training and rest.
And in the first round, both the Lakers and the Suns settled the battle within 6 games, and the Kings took the lead in the second round, but the Lakers were faster and took the lead against the Suns in the second round.
The Suns defeated the Nuggets, not because they were on the bottom line, but because they had the advantage of being on the home court, and in the sixth game, they killed them with one blow away from home, defeating the Nuggets, who were considered to be a "pseudo-strong team".
The Suns and the Lakers have played each other, and it is not the first time in these years, the Suns have had their ups and downs for so many years, from the beginning of the absolute suppression of the "OK" disintegration of the Lakers, to later, the Lakers rose, but were suppressed, and now, it is even more necessary to challenge the Lakers with 60 wins.
Nash topped the veteran rankings this year.
This season, more than 20 veterans over the age of 34 in the league are fighting, and when everyone is saying that the 36-year-old Nash is old and can't run, the Canadian Wind Son ranks first in the league's assists list with an average of 11 assists per game and becomes the assist leader of the season. At the age of 36, he can also average more than double digits in assists per game and dominate the league's assists list, which is unprecedented in NBA history. Prior to Nash, John Stockton was the assist leader in 1996-97 at the age of 34 averaging 10.5 assists per game.
Nash was interviewed and said that he would go all out to play against the Lakers, which was also the Suns' best year after experiencing a roster change.
The Kings' Kidd is ranked second on the veteran rankings and is also considered to have a second spring. The 37-year-old is also averaging 9.1 assists per game, ranking fifth in the league. Another crazy veteran point guard was Andre Miller, who scored 52 points on 22-of-31 shooting against the Mavericks on Jan. 31 and became one of the craziest veterans of the season.
........
In the seventh game between the Rockets and the Spurs, with the home court advantage, the Rockets finally narrowly defeated the Spurs by 4 points and advanced to the second round.
The Spurs have had a mediocre playoff performance for two consecutive years since losing in the Finals in '08, and this time they were defeated by the Rockets, which seems to prove the argument that "the Spurs are old".
Popovich said in an interview that the Spurs are about to usher in an era of change, and will no longer stick to the traditional positive numbers, but will echo the development of the entire basketball era.
May 4, Sacramento.
In the second round of the playoffs, the Kings played against the Rockets.
It is also a rare playoff matchup between the two teams, and the last time the two teams competed in the playoffs was in the 85-86 season, and now 24 years have passed.
The last time the two teams met, the Rockets easily swept the Kings 3-0.
At that time, the Rockets had Hakiem Olajuwon and Ralph Sampson in the two interior lines, which were a combination of "champion + champion", the regular season record of the two teams, the Kings were seventh in the West, and the Rockets were second in the West, and the overall strength of the Rockets was indeed much stronger than the Kings.
This time, the Rockets and Kings have similar records, one is third in the West and the other is second in the West.
And the relationship between the two teams has to start from the Chinese complex.
Yao Ming and Wang Mingming.
One of the few Chinese elements in the NBA, in this round, will stage a showdown.
This makes Chinese fans feel both surprised and delighted, but also feel a little pity, the surprise is that the two teams can meet on this level of stage, but unfortunately, if the two teams meet in a higher level, such as the Western Finals, it can ensure that at least one team can reach the finals.
The good news now is that at least one team will make it to the Western Conference finals.
Night, Arco Arena.
The hall was full of seats, and the stadium was full of people.
Fans poured in, and as far as the eye could see, it was all the classic purple jerseys of the Kings, converging into a sea of purple.
Players from both teams are still warming up.
At the exact point in time, the two teams began their pre-match ceremonies.
The King's pre-match ritual was to perform a high-five celebration gesture, starting with Artest, where he and every player high-fived, gesturing on his hands something that the King would not understand for the rest of his life.
The Kings walked past the midfield and were greeted by Kings head coach Rick Adelman.
"Coach Rick."
Wang Ming smiled.
Adelman's tense and serious face suddenly couldn't hold back when he encountered Wang Mingming's smile, and squeezed out a strong and ugly smile.
The two shook hands and then hugged for a moment.
"Yes, I watched the movie."
"Haha, side hustle, side hustle, Coach Rick is interested, please act in a movie next time."
Wang Tomorrow laughed, "Iron Man 2" was a great success, and the North American box office on the first day grossed $47 million, killing all movies on the same period.
It can be said that now Wang Tomorrow has already made a fortune relying on this Marvel share, and he has no worries about food and clothing.
The dividends of each movie alone are much higher than his salary of nearly 10 million.
"Uh."
Adelman shook his head helplessly, Wang Tomorrow's joke was ...... He was impressed, but thinking about his heavy task right now, he threw out this unrealistic idea.
Not everyone is Wang Mingming, they are all the kind of elite young marshals who are chic and uninhibited, vertical and horizontal.
