Chapter 8: The Invitation of the Great Shark
Sun Zhuo has no experience in talking to beautiful girls, not to mention that he is a world-class goddess in front of him, so he will inevitably be nervous and incoherent, but he confessed directly to his face in excitement.
Jessica Alba was also taken aback, she herself admired Sun Zhuo's ball skills very much, she was both surprised and a little shy at the moment, and she spoke in a hurry: "You say this...... I get it. ”
Both of them seem to be a little interesting to each other, but this is obviously not an occasion to confess their love, Jessica is embarrassed, and Sun Zhuo doesn't know what to say next.
At this moment, the big shark O'Neill grabbed Sun Zhuo, took him away, and said in Sun Zhuo's ear: "Never show what you are not good at in public, this is the first thing I taught you, I will teach you more tonight, say goodbye to this chick, I will ask my agent to help you get her phone." ”
Sun Zhuo was taken away from the embarrassing scene by O'Neill's domineering, and Jessica Alba also raised her pink right hand, and only raised her hand to her chest and waved goodbye to Sun Zhuo, an out-and-out girlish gesture.
"Sweetheart, did you hear what he said? He says he likes you, in front of so many people. After Sun Zhuo and O'Neill left, Jessica's father also looked dazed.
Jessica Alba smiled and said, "He's very direct, but I like it." ”
……
Today is the first day of the regular season, in addition to the Lakers vs. Mavericks game, there are two more games, one of which happens to be the Heat game, after the Lakers vs. Mavericks game, soon, the Miami Heat vs. Philadelphia 76ers game also has a result.
The Heat lost to the 76ers 74-89, but rookie Dwyane Wade started the game, finishing with 18 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists in 41 minutes, as well as five turnovers.
With a team-high second-highest score behind Allen Iverson, Dwyanwade was pleased with his debut.
"I should be okay with this grade, right? I don't know how many points LeBron and Cameron will score in their debuts, but even if they don't score double-doubles, no one will think I'm better than them, when will I get the same attention as them? Wade was ambitious and knew he would achieve something, but no one paid attention to him yet.
Back in the locker room, the immature Wade had just taken off his shirt when suddenly a reporter with a microphone and a person with a camera walked in, and walked to Wade's side.
"Are you Dwyanwade, please?" The female reporter walked up to Wade.
Wade nodded nervously, "Yes, I am." ”
The female reporter said: "I'm a reporter from FOX Station, can I briefly interview you?" ”
Wade was flattered when he heard this: "FOX reporter...... Come interview me? What's going on? ”
The female reporter said: "Eric Sun of the Los Angeles Lakers, saying that you are the strongest person in this rookie class besides him, even better than LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony, do you agree with his statement? ”
Wade also sat up: "I'm very happy to be complimented like this, I just want to say that I'm going to be an All-Star and I'm going to lead the team to the playoffs to sprint for a championship, and I hope people will remember my name and keep an eye on me." By the way, who is ERIC Sun? Is it someone from Lakers management? ”
The female reporter smiled: "His Chinese name is Sun Zhuo, and he is the same rookie as you, but he is ranked relatively low, but he came off the bench in his debut and got 30 points, 13 rebounds, 6 assists, 4 steals and 2 blocks, and completed the kill, and now everyone thinks that he may be the strongest person in this rookie." ”
"What? 30+13, 4 steals and 2 blocks?! Or is it a substitute for playing? "Dwyanwade was simply terrified! This is simply the data that only Kobe Bryant and Iverson can get, and there are such evil players in the same rookie?
"But such a wicked man praised me so much...... Sun Zhuo, I have made this friend! Dwyanwade took Sun Zhuo's name to heart.
……
Wade has always been a star that Sun Zhuo admires very much, he was not taken seriously when he first entered the league, even if he entered the All-Star, he had to introduce himself to reporters, and the other party knew what his name was, but after his own efforts, he led the team to win the championship in the third season, and the average data per game in the finals was a terrifying 34.7+7.8.
If it was LeBron James who did this, then he would already be called the first person in the league, but that person was Wade, who has never been favored, so even if Wade won the championship, FMVP and scoring title, he still did not get the status he deserved.
In the summer of 2014, in order to retain James, and at the same time help the Heat introduce strong reinforcements, he made a huge sacrifice again, jumped out of the contract in advance, and accepted a huge salary cut, but in the end he was "empty of people and money".
The most poignant thing is that Wade, who has played for the Heat for 13 years, has made countless sacrifices and has never received the highest salary from the Heat, but he was finally forced to leave the Heat.
But even when it came to the Bulls, when Wade decided to exercise the final year's $24 million player option, there were still many people who thought Wade no longer deserved such a high contract.
Wade said bitterly on Twitter: "At the age of 35, I averaged 18.3 points in 29 minutes per game, shooting 43 percent, if I were 25 years old, I could get a 150 million contract in this era." ”
Wade, who has countless honors, has not been treated with due respect and treatment from the beginning to the end of his career, so Sun Zhuo will deliberately mention Wade's name, in this life, he wants to let "The Flash" get the respect he deserves!
After the game, Sun Zhuo was taken by O'Neal to his mansion in Beverly Hills, which is arguably the top affluent area of Los Angeles and a dream place for the world's richest people, a city with an elected mayor, a police and fire department, and a place where various celebrities live.
Like Michael Jackson, Madonna, Britney Spears, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Jackie Chan...... These world's top celebrities all live here.
O'Neill personally drove Sun Zhuo to his mansion, knowing that Sun Zhuo was still renting a house in Los Angeles, and he boasted all kinds along the way, and when he came to the mansion, he let Sun Zhuo visit everywhere first.
O'Neill's home has 7 huge bedrooms and 8 bathrooms, as well as a fully equipped cinema, games arcade, bar, gym, swimming pool and fish pond.
O'Neill loves to sing, and he has built a top-notch music studio.
The mansion was worth at least $10 million, but Sun Zhuo knew that after O'Neal was traded to the Heat, O'Neal sold the house for just over $6 million.
"Well, brother, I'm not in a bad place, am I? Don't be too envious, as long as you follow me, I promise it won't be long before you get these. Coming to O'Neill's music studio, O'Neill said excitedly.
Sun Zhuo smiled helplessly, thinking that it would not be long before O'Neill would sell this kind of mansion half and give it to an island drummer, Sun Zhuo was not so envious.
Sun Zhuo found that there was a piano here, so he walked over and played it.
"Oh my God, you kid can play the piano! Give me JAY-Z's "Izzo", I'm going to sing this! O'Neill is really a natural rapper, and before Sun Zhuo could play, he had already started singing.
Sun Zhuo looked helpless, O'Neill said this song, Sun Zhuo has never heard it at all, he does know how to play the piano, he couldn't walk in his previous life, he learned a lot of musical instruments, used to play boring life, but he is not very good at music theory and harmony knowledge, improvisational accompaniment ability is a little worse, fortunately, rap songs are generally simply repeating a loop, Sun Zhuo listened to O'Neill's singing, and gradually found a form of accompaniment to O'Neal to accompaniment.
"Oh, that's great! Sun, you're a genius! O'Neill wriggled his fat body, changed the lyrics and improvised a rap while praising him.
"yes, I'm tired of that kid fighting with me for the boss."
"He got in touch with Mike Dunleavy [Clippers head coach]."
"Good, get out of here with the Clippers, the Lakers are my team."
"Now, I don't need you anymore, I have Eric Sun, Sun Zhuo, a talented player from China."
"He's unbeatable on the court, he's got an unbeatable sense of basketball, he's a great predictor."
"Without you, I would have won three more championships with Sun, and without me, you wouldn't have tasted a single championship, haha."
Sun Zhuo understood why O'Neill had invited him to his house.
