Chapter 19 Gain recognition with strength
He really wants to get a name change card now, and get his name again, like what Long Yuxuan, what is the name of Long Yuxuan, how domineering is it? It's really not good for Long Aotian, and Long Ritian can also do it.......
That is, the Yankees do not know the Chinese meaning of the word chinchilla, and the meanings of the words "LonaMao" and "Chinchilla" cannot be connected, otherwise the Chinese will really be laughed off by others.
"Hello, I'm a reporter for the Los Angeles Times. You scored 20 points in less than half and got close to a triple-double today, how do you think you did today? Also, Chinese players generally don't perform well in the NBA, and with the exception of Yao Ming, several of your compatriots are not as good as they could be, when do you think you will hit your own bottleneck? โ
My neighbor's eyelids jumped, and the question asked by this reporter was a little sharp, and there was even a hint of racial discrimination in it.
He usually thinks of himself as a good talker, which can be seen from the fact that he can let his blonde sister and black sister live in his own house, but what is it, everyone has their own bottom line, and Totoro himself is no exception.
Like this kind of discrimination against Chinese people, Totoro said that he couldn't bear it, he liked to play basketball since he was a child, but the reason why he wanted to play in the MLS so strongly, and a large part of it was because of patriotism, he was like succeeding in the NBA, proving that the NBA is not a game that only black and white people can live in, and they yellow people also have the ability to become the best one here!
"Hehe, I don't know what I'm going to hit a bottleneck, and I don't know what my trajectory will look like in the future, but in terms of my performance today, I don't think I should be the No. 6 rookie, the Bulls who selected the champion Rose played before me, and the champion Lang played a whole game to get 30 points and 7 assists, and everyone knows who is superior and who is inferior to me in terms of statistics, and Rose's debut is not as good as mine."
My Neighbor Totoro also lost his previous politeness, and his words were very rampant.
"So you think your own draft pick is too low?"
"I don't need to say these things, the data doesn't lie, the fans will naturally discern everything."
"Then why didn't you show your strength when you were in the NCAA? As far as I know, your college team was eliminated in the quarterfinals, so if you're so confident, why didn't you make it to the Final Four? โ
The reporter was obviously not a fuel-efficient lamp either, and retorted without thinking.
My Neighbor Totoro's face became ugly, he couldn't tell people that it was because he hadn't controlled his body well at that time, so he hit such, right?
"Hmph, you don't believe we can use the regular season stats to explain everything, and we'll just wait and see."
The Chinese had nothing to say, so they had to die in place with a hard mouth.
The reporters in the audience saw that Totoro was short of words and was ready to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but the old man saw that the situation was wrong, and immediately waved his hand to announce the end of the press conference and help Totoro go offline to dodge.
The team took the bus back to the hotel, A Shuai looked at Totoro's expression was a little complicated, he was a little disappointed with Totoro's speech, as a rookie who had just arrived in a game, his speech was a little unscrupulous, but thinking of the statements of those American reporters, he couldn't blame Totoro for anything.
When he was away from home, he heard that he was so looked down upon because of the affairs of his home country, and he couldn't bear it if he were him.
"A person can say big things, but he has to have the ability to match them, and if you want people to pay attention to you, then you have to shut them up with practical actions."
In the end, Adelman could only say this to Totoro, and then went back to his room to rest without saying anything more.
The next day, Team Rockets had no opponents in the training match, Totoro opened the computer in the hotel room and browsed the web, and it was all about him.
"The Chinese small forward is talking wildly, thinking that he is the best rookie in the class of '08, and I hope this is not an April Fool's joke in advance - Los Angeles Times"
"It's a very stupid thing for the No. 6 rookie to think he has the power to speak as a first-tier star, and he thinks he's on par with the top pick, but everybody knows it's a joke โ Cleveland Truth Telling."
"This is the best example of arrogance and arrogance, and I hope he can learn from his compatriot Yao Ming on his team, and he can learn from the humility that Chinese should haveโThe New York Times."
Looking at the ridicule reports on the Internet, My Neighbor Totoro felt that his anger could burn the urine of those posts through the screen.
However, he didn't do anything irrational like smashing the computer, because he felt that what Adelman said to him yesterday was very right, and the best way to make people not underestimate him was to use his strength to shut up those guys, especially now that he has pushed himself to the brink of the storm, and he can't afford to make any mistakes in the next few summer league games.
Now this is actually not a bad thing, he has greatly increased his popularity because of the impulse, if he behaves well, the comments that criticized him at the beginning will disappear immediately, only those kneeling and licking voices remain, he knows too much about the virtues of these media.
And the fans too, Chinese fans and American fans are not stupid, they will be misled by the wind direction of the media for a period of time, but the performance on the field can not be misled by the media, just like he said, as long as he plays a beautiful stats and leads the team to victory, no one will not accept him, and he is not the kind of fierce face he looks at, in fact, Totoro is not as good as those first-line stars, but the strong body and slender body plus the angular face, If he doesn't play basketball, it's more than enough to be a second-tier star.
My Neighbor Totoro left his computer, picked up the dumbbells in his room, and began to train himself to strengthen.
He's going to play the Los Angeles Clippers tomorrow, and it just so happens that those media outlets also have the Los Angeles Times, so it's right to take the team in your city!
