235 ambition
"Yiming, don't you think this plan of yours is too crazy and too ambitious."
Yang Yiming was lying on the bed, and the air conditioner in the room was adjusted to the maximum wind, 16 degrees. The air-conditioning machine roared, running hard like a sad black slave, without a moment's rest. Yang Yiming picked up his iPhone, and there was a reminder on the screen, showing that it was from his girlfriend, Meritis. He slid the reminder to the left:
View – Clear.
He hesitated for two seconds and chose "clear" in it. Throw your phone aside.
'You have to think about the team as well. What will happen to the team when scoring like this? Just over half a minute, Yang Yiming didn't reply to the previous one, and Meritis's second message came again.
He slid to the left. This time, I chose "View" and then typed only two words in the reply: "I kno." Then he threw away his phone and continued to lie on the bed blowing the air conditioner, in a daze. The cold wind blew his muscles stiff, like dead pork in a freezer after being slaughtered and bled out, but his mind was full of a number:
50。
I'm probably obsessed. Yang Yiming said to himself in his heart.

Yang Yiming's idea is actually very simple. He wants to unleash his loyal fan base, with their power online, and in turn drive his real-life 50-point career.
Wang Ju. This other influencer gave him a lot of whimsical ideas. If Wang Ju's fan group can build momentum for her in a very short time, covering the whole network, all terminals, and all people, so that Wang Ju, who originally didn't pay attention to "Creation 101" and "Tuchuang", can pick up his mobile phone to vote, then wouldn't it be easy for his original nearly 30 million fans to form a public opinion momentum?
He even designed the form of public opinion marketing: he wanted to launch a Q&A on Weibo, using the very popular Zhihu style, "What is the experience of scoring 50 points in a single game in the NBA Finals?" It just so happens that he can be a player who has scored 50 points, and while talking about his feelings about experiencing this matter, he can leave another controversial topic behind for the Internet masses of good things to slowly ferment:
In fact, I, Yang Yiming, can also score 50 points in the finals!
This kind of topical nonsense is originally a favorite of the Internet! One stone stirs up a thousand waves, as long as someone dares to say it, there will be fans to praise, there are also sunspots spray, once the fierce battle of tongues is formed, the topic is naturally like a whirlwind, swaying!
This kind of fighting and killing, not only Yang Yiming has been tried and tested repeatedly on the domestic Internet, but he has also experienced it himself!
Previously, the Chinese version of the NBA's official website launched "Who do you think will be selected as the best rookie of the season?" Not only did he leave the first option to Yang Yiming, but the domestic rockets and Yang Yiming's fans even rushed his votes directly to an overwhelming advantage, which naturally gave opponents who didn't like him so much!
That big war began to quarrel in the basketball world, leading to countless rocket blacks and rocket fans, and also involving Yang Yiming's "predecessor" Yao Ming. In the end, it simply became a national discussion, and the platform was launched, and it became a discussion of whether netizens have "national integrity": supporting Yang Yiming is naturally self-improvement and patriotism; Those who oppose him are self-defeating; There is even a strange discussion about whether Yang Yiming went to the United States to play and did not stay in the CBA to vote for the enemy - the brains of the sunspots on the Internet are really strange, but when the hustle and bustle slowly fell silent and the smoke dissipated, Yang Yiming was surprised to find that his popularity and attention had risen instead!
That's the power of the web.
There is a power to destroy any person, and there is also the power to shape any person!
So in the operation of scoring 50 points in the finals, he once again thought of relying on this network!

"So you're sure you're going to do it? Are you not afraid of risks? Yang Yiming replied "I kno" to Meritis and put down the phone not long after, Yu Xiaochun's call chased in again. He didn't answer the first and second times, but the third time he really couldn't help it, so he picked it up - as he expected, the phone inevitably fell was Koharu's admonition again.
"Sure."
"What about the risks? Will the team lose, and if you don't score that many points yourself, you will be ridiculed for all kinds of iron..."
"I've thought about all of that, too." Yang Yiming held the mobile phone in his right hand and leaned against his ear, grabbed the basketball at the foot of the bed with his left hand, shot the ball from his hand from his chest like a shot with one hand, and then caught it, and replied while repeating this action: "Kobe Bryant, the iron king of NBA history, but today and future generations will only remember his greatness." Being able to shoot so many times is difficult for ordinary players to do. Don't you say the same, Koharu? Ability, athletic career, tactical weight of the team, determination, and even physical strength in each game must be at the top for a player to be worthy of discussion. ”
In his own words, he retorted and sneered, which was obviously very powerful. Yu Xiaochun suddenly lost his voice on the other end of the phone, and after a while, he found the topic just now: "What about the team?" ”
"LeBron is the first person in Finals history to score 50+ and then the team loses. I don't think I'm going to be the second to have two scoring shows in a Finals and not win, hahaha. ”
Yang Yiming just finished laughing at himself, and said very seriously: "But the NBA is originally a winner-takes-all league. With LeBron James' performance in this round of this year's playoffs, even if the Cavaliers didn't win the championship, he was the player who all teams did not hesitate to offer a maximum salary contract in the summer. He has the freedom to decide where he wants to go in the future, and all kinds of business contracts will be rushed. The same good thing you thought would happen to his teammate George Hill, who only does the dirty work and is inconspicuous? ”
"It's really not, but LeBron is LeBron after all..."
"That's right, there really is only one Emperor Zhan, but I can get closer to him, if I can also infinitely amplify my own personal performance." Yang Yiming swallowed his saliva, stopped the basketball he was throwing, and pressed it on the bed: "To put it mildly, of course everyone is happy that the Rockets can win the championship." But if you fight for this, there is still no championship this year, and I don't know how long this group of people, especially the veteran players, can play together. Maybe they'll be looking to join a 'more competitive' team? In that case, I was planning for my future before all these changes came, and putting on a solo show, was it actually a rainy day? ”
"What if it was because of the solo show, the Rocket lost the championship that could have been won?!" Yu Xiaochun's tone was a little anxious.
"Then it's back to winner-takes-all... It's just that the person who wins is the rocket, or I Yang Yiming. Yang Yiming's words pierced Yu Xiaochun's morale, he said: "If you can only choose one of the two, you are my agent, who do you choose?!" ”
"But... I still don't understand..."Yu Xiaochun was completely deflated, and the tone of his words went from the highest "but" to "I don't understand" and swallowed directly into his throat. In trying to persuade Yang Yiming to give up his ambitions and change his mind, he seemed to be doing his final death throes.
"Don't understand what?"
"I still don't understand, how can starting a big discussion from the Chinese Internet help you win a chance to score 50 points in the finals in the United States?"
"I already have a plan in mind!"
