053 Las Vegas

"I'm going to Las Vegas, and I'll meet you directly in Salt Lake City tomorrow."

"What are you doing in Las Vegas? How are you going to get there? Could it be..."Yang Yiming couldn't help but ask a few more words when he saw his good friend on such a whim.

"I'm going to rent a car and drive there, but Las Vegas isn't far from Los Angeles anyway, it's about a four-hour drive. Why don't you care... As for this? What do you want to say? ”

"Could it be that your kid really had a situation last night, and he got rid of your 'old classmate'..."Yang Yiming drew a pair of quotation marks in the void with his hand, and said happily, "I'll take someone to Las Vegas to get the certificate today." ”

"you. See you in Salt Lake City anyway. ”

"Okay, you have to seize the opportunity." Yang Yiming continued to squeeze his eyebrows.

"Get out!"

After lunch, Yu Xiaochun set off for four and a half hours and arrived at the famous casino city of Las Vegas in the evening.

In winter, the sunshine hours in the northern hemisphere are short, and when night falls, the lights of the casino are on, and the lights are full of red wine and green, and the paper is drunk.

Yu Xiaochun drove aimlessly around the streets, waiting for further instructions from Karonsky III.

As if expected, Yu Xiaochun wandered on the street for less than half an hour, and the message of the third world came:

"Sky Suite #F"

Sky Suite? Sounds amazing. However, Yu Xiaochun didn't pay much attention to it, maybe the hotel rooms in the casino would be called such a very pompous name.

Yu Xiaochun rented a hatchback Toyota gasoline-electric hybrid car from a car rental company, not for anything else, but to save fuel costs for long-distance journeys. The Prius did perform very well, starting with a full tank of fuel in Los Angeles, the 650-kilometer flight was over, and the tank pointer was not yet halfway there. However, at this time, Yu Xiaochun still regretted a little, he drove the Prius to the door of the lobby of the Arya Hotel, only to find that the silver-gray Prius he drove was the most prosaic of all the cars.

Supercars, antique classic cars, all kinds of modified cars, all kinds of cars, all kinds of dazzling.

Fortunately, the little brother who greeted the guest had received good vocational training and was still smiling, otherwise Yu Xiaochun would have been embarrassed to roll down the window and greet him.

"Hello, where is the entrance to the parking lot?"

"Go straight to the end, turn right, and go downhill to the underground parking lot." The welcome brother smiled, "Are you staying at Arya?" I can also park the car on your behalf and deliver the keys to your room in a moment. ”

"No, no, I'm here to visit a friend. He said he was in this room, and he was here. Yu Xiaochun showed the information of "Sky Suite #F" on his mobile phone to the other party as a confirmation.

"Yes. Okay, please wait. The little brother gestured to Yu Xiaochun to wait in place, while he didn't know what to say with the headset, and in less than a minute, two other young waiters who were also handsome and a lady who looked like a foreman manager rushed out, and the four of them surrounded Yu Xiaochun's car together.

"Hello, Mr. Yu!" The female manager spoke first.

How did the other party know my surname, Yu Xiaochun silently wondered in his heart. However, under this big battle, he didn't dare to speak, only quietly listened to what the female manager wanted to say.

"You can get off now. Hook up the car to the P gear, leave the keys in the car, and leave the rest to us. ”

Get out? Leave it all to them? What kind of road is this?

"You are a guest of Mr. Karonsky III in the Sky Suite of our Arya Hotel, and we have just confirmed with him. All Sky Suite guests have been treated to the finest service from the moment they arrive in Las Vegas, and we are sorry that you have come by car. Seeing that Yu Xiaochun was suspicious, the female manager gave an explanation.

I see! "I thought you were going to take me away." Yu Xiaochun, who was finally relieved, got out of the car and joked with ease.

"Take you away? Ah, it's really possible..."The female manager also understood, and smiled, "You have a special passage to the floor of the Sky Suite, please come with me." My colleague will ask you what you would like to drink, carbonated drink, red wine, or champagne? ”

"Just Coke."

"Diet or Coke?"

"Diet."

"Okay, here we go." The female manager looked back with a smile in front of her, and slowly pushed the golden door of the hotel open for Yu Xiaochun.

Kalonsky III has been waiting for a long time.

The Sky Suite lives up to its name. Located on the highest floor of the hotel, it opens with floor-to-ceiling 180-degree glass to take in the views of Las Vegas at night.

Today, Kalonsky III changed into a gray casual suit, brown beanie shoes, a dark blue shirt with a pink and white checkered bow tie, and was sitting in the center of the room with his arms outstretched on the back of a minimalist leather sofa, with the Las Vegas skyline as a backdrop.

"Mr. Kalonsky III." Yu Xiaochun greeted him seriously for the first time.

"Just call me Scott."

"Ah, I thought..."

"Yes, those old guys don't like the name Scott, it's confusing to say that it always has to be called Karonsky I II, which is a bit of a mouthful. So it's not as good as Scott, they don't need it anyway. ”

"Okay, I'll call you Scott, it's easy..."

"I've researched the players you mentioned." Scott seemed to be in a bit of a hurry today, getting ahead of every sentence.

"So? Yu Xiaochun simply shut up and left all the right to speak directly to the other party.

"I can help you, but it's for a fee."

Yu Xiaochun glanced around at this luxurious and unusual room, prepared to be slaughtered, and said, "You can make a price." As long as it helps with Ichimei's ability value. ”

"Don't worry, you listen to my analysis first. It's like a gamble, if you find the analysis useful and profitable, it's never too late for you to spend money on it. Seeing that Yu Xiaochun didn't interject, Scott picked up a tablet from the sofa and slid it a few times, and Yang Yiming's game picture was played on the 80-inch large LCD screen TV in the room: "Your friend Yiming, basketball IQ is very high, and his physical condition is also good, but for NBA-level games, he still needs time to adapt, and his technical characteristics are not distinctive enough." Judging from his recent performances, it seems that he is trying to get closer to the template of a 3-and-D player, I don't know if it was Mike [D'Antoni] or an awakening of his personal basketball consciousness..."

Scott commented as he walked over to the huge floor-to-ceiling glass window, "But as a 3-and-D player, his three-point shooting and defensive ability are not very good. Defensively, it feels like he's relying more on his own unique talent, on his judgment and emergency reflexes... It's as if he always has a way to come first, it's amazing. However, this is not a long-term solution, is it..."

Not distinct, 3-and-D player, talent, three-point shot, defensive ability. Just listening to these few keywords, Yu Xiaochun was already convinced.

"So if you want to improve your Chinese friend's ability value, be more in line with his template positioning, and further stand out on the court, I think you should start with three-point shooting and defensive ability."

The casino outside the window is flickering and blurry, and the searchlights from different hotels are like a few calls from the secret realm, piercing the sky!

"Scott, listen to you. I'll join, you can make an offer! ”
