Chapter Eighty-Six: The City of Angels, the Proud Purple Gold Army
City of Angels!
Los Angeles, California!
The sky gradually turned white, and as the morning sun rose, the originally thick fog began to gradually dissipate, and a tall figure with a height of 1.98 meters gradually appeared from the fog. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As the morning fog cleared completely, the clock on the clock tower pointed in the direction of 6 o'clock, making a "dang" sound, and the jogging man stopped, took his coat off his head, and looked in the direction of Staples Arena.
After a short rest, the person who stopped wiped the sweat from his forehead and set off again, running along the street to the Lakers' home arena...
On Tuesday, November 23, 2010, the weather turned foggy
"Ah~~~~" Yuan Shu yawned loudly and sat up from his bed at a five-star hotel in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, where the clock pointed to 8 o'clock in the morning.
Yesterday, Yuan Shu really felt the treatment of a superstar. Since Yuan Shu's Cavaliers team will challenge the Los Angeles Lakers on the road today, Snickers' public relations team decided to shoot the advertisement in Los Angeles to match Yuan Shu's itinerary. So Yuan Shu arrived in Los Angeles a day early, and after filming the advertisement in Los Angeles the day before the game, he stayed at the hotel arranged by Snickers, waiting for the team's arrival the next day.
Although it was the first time for Yuan Shu to shoot an advertisement, he had been on a food show hosted by Lisa before, so he felt good about capturing the camera, which also made the shooting of this commercial very smooth. According to the arrangement of the advertisement, the task of this advertising Yuan Shu is to take a bite of the Snickers, and then say the slogan "Sweep hunger, really energetic" to the camera, which can be described as so-easy, but it still took most of the day, mainly because of the time spent on scene configuration, lighting effects, makeup and other things.
Yuan Shu, who passed through after shooting a few shots, couldn't help but feel that the treatment of superstars was different, and it only took about 1 hour to shoot by himself, but these teams and personnel responsible for filming had to rush here from New York, and then spend a few hours to complete all the preparations, and then spend a few hours finishing the work, which can be described as very hard, but all of this is to cooperate with Yuan Shu, which also shows Yuan Shu's current popularity, influence and the importance of the Snickers brand to Yuan Shu. Because of this, Yuan Shu decided to cooperate with the Snickers brand for a long time.
Soon after waking up, Yuan Shu received a call from Luo Nick, the head of Snickers' advertising and marketing team, telling Yuan Shu that the shooting was good, and that the commercial would be released around Christmas, and that he would take a look at the effect of the advertisement and thank Yuan Shu for his wonderful performance.
After a few polite words with Nick, Yuan Shu came to the window of the hotel room where he was staying, surrounded by a large area of greenery, and then looked into the distance, the downtown area of Los Angeles was lined with high-rise buildings. It's a world away from the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles. If you retire in the future and buy a big house here, facing the sea, and the spring flowers are blooming, it can be regarded as a joy in life!
......
There are two NBA teams in Los Angeles, one is the Lakers and the other is the Clippers, but for so many years, the Lakers' status in Los Angeles has been difficult for the Clippers to match, just because the Lakers have a very good and deep heritage.
When it comes to the Los Angeles Lakers, one after another resounding names first appear in the minds of fans: George McCann, Elgin Baylor, Jerry West, Wilt Chamberlain, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Elvin Johnson, James Worthy, Shaquille O'Neal, Kobe Bryant...
When you walk into the Staples Arena and look up and see the 11 championship flags hanging above the stadium, people will think of the blood-pumping scenes of the pioneers who once fought bravely in this stadium, and their hearts will be involuntarily excited!
Staples, a stadium with an illustrious history; Lakers, this is a purple and gold army with aristocratic blood in its veins!
After defeating the Orlando Magic in the 08-09 season and the Boston Celtics in the 09-10 season, they have won two consecutive championships, and they are determined to attack the third triple championship in the team's history under the leadership of "Zen Master" Phil Jackson!
Winning three consecutive championships after leaving O'Neal is the motivation for Kobe Bryant to go all out to win this season!
The current Lakers have a very good record, only 1 win behind the San Antonio Spurs in second place in the West, and Kobe Bryant is also ranked third in the scoring list with an average of 26.1 points per game, it looks like the team is in good shape!
When Yuan Shu and a group of Cavaliers players came to Staples Arena, saw the 11 championship flags floating in the air, and saw the enthusiastic fans on the scene, Yuan Shu knew where the gap between the Cavaliers and the Lakers was, and a restless emotion began to emerge from Yuan Shu's heart.
The moment he stepped on the court, Yuan Shu felt as if the blood in his body was burning involuntarily!
Judging from the starting lineup announced by the Lakers before the game, the center position is still started by "Little Shark" Andrew Bynum, a young center with a height of 2.13 meters, although he has played for the Lakers for 5 seasons, he is only 23 years old this year! However, the potential problem is that Bynum has injuries almost every season and is relatively lazy in training, but fortunately there is a big brother Kobe Bryant on the team who is always urging him. Last season, Bynum averaged a career-high 15.0 points per game, along with 8.3 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in the previous five seasons, helping the team defend its title.
The power forward position is started by the team's second-in-command, Spaniard Pau Gasol, who is in his 11th season, and last season, Gasol averaged a double-double in the regular season for the first time, averaging 18.3 points, 11.3 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 1.7 blocks, Gasol explained why he is widely regarded by fans as the best player in FIBA history.
There is no suspense in the start of the small forward, and Ron Artest, who has brought a tough style, has firmly occupied this position since joining the Lakers, although Atay's score last season set a new record since he joined the NBA, but the Lakers' reliance on Atay is obviously not his score, and his joining has hardened the backbone of the Lakers since then!
Shooting guard, well... There is no need to introduce more, Kobe Bryant, Black Mamba, 62 points in the third quarter, 81 points in a single game, the closest scoring ability to Jordan's guard, as long as Kobe Bryant is healthy, any team's scoring guard position can reserve him as a starter. Kobe Bryant, who played in the league for the 14th season last season, still played 27.0 points, 5.4 rebounds and 5.0 assists with 25+5+5 luxury statistics.
The playmaker is the veteran "Old Fish" Derek Fisher, who has mastered the essence of the Zen Triangle attack the most.
And in addition to that, on the bench sat the strongest sixth man in the league at the time - Lamar Odom.
This is a team that once again makes Lakers fans proud!
Before the start of the game, Kobe Bryant and the Cavaliers players hugged each other, and when they arrived at Yuan Shu, Kobe showed an elusive smile that made Yuan Shu and said, "Welcome to Los Angeles, Yuan." ”
