Chapter 125: A Storm of Public Opinion
When Peter-Wang's manuscript arrived in China, it caused an uproar. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Six-foot-five-inch defender, Chinese, Lu Xiaofeng (transliteration)"
As soon as I saw Peter-Wang's manuscript, the editor who reviewed the manuscript immediately became suspicious, which was too coincidental and the age was right.
As an online media, they don't have any idea of work ethic.
The editor made his own decision on the spot and changed Lu Xiaofeng to Lu Xiaofeng.
I don't want to verify the truth of the matter, such a hot news, I am racing against time to send it out first, attracting attention.
The headline "Lu Xiaofeng participates in the NBA draft" hung up and immediately attracted countless hits on the Internet.
SOME POWERFUL NETIZENS POSTED SCREENSHOTS OF THE NBADRAFT WEBSITE ON THE INTERNET.
NOW, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THIS XIAOFENG-LU IS LU XIAOFENG OR NOT, EVERYONE BELIEVES THAT LU XIAOFENG MUST HAVE SIGNED UP FOR THIS YEAR'S NBA DRAFT.
This is a mistake and tells the truth of the matter.
All of a sudden, major media rushed to reprint it.
But Lu Xiaofeng was in the national training team and couldn't be interviewed, so reporters and netizens could only go to his Weibo to look for clues.
As a result, Lu Xiaofeng's Weibo gained millions of followers within a day.
Countless messages from fans are discussing his draft prospects.
Only a few people are still verifying the authenticity of his participation in the draft.
Of course, Chen Yuhan knew that Lu Xiaofeng was going to participate in the draft, and immediately posted a photo of Lu Xiaofeng's registration information on Weibo.
At this time, the most cautious and influential media finally reported the news of Lu Xiaofeng's candidacy for the NBA.
After winning the World Youth Championships last year and being crowned the "Most Valuable Player", Lu Xiaofeng once again caused a news storm.
For more than a week, the NBA sections of major domestic media, except for the Lakers, the biggest favorite for this year's championship, have been dominated by Lu Xiaofeng.
The media reported his public information, various competitions since he went to school, and all kinds of hearsay anecdotes.
The real and the fake are mixed together, creating a new idol for the fans who can do anything.
Yao Ming, who had just finished the playoffs with the Rockets, was forgotten aside.
The media needs news.
The media needs new people even more.
Is Lu Xiaofeng more famous than Yao Ming? That's fake.
But he's a newcomer, and that's why.
It is human nature to like the new and hate the old, and it is also the nature of media people.
Yao Ming, who has played for two seasons, is already an old man, and there are no scandals, except for the good and bad on-court performance, there are not many things that attract attention.
For the domestic media, it is simply "Lu Xiaofeng falling from the sky", giving them the opportunity to break out again.
Lu Xiaofeng, who had not played in a professional league, was blown to the sky by the media at once.
The most important World Youth Champion and "Most Valuable Player" was touted by the media as an honor second only to the Olympic champion.
In this way, it seems that Lu Xiaofeng's participation in the NBA draft is even more beautiful than Yao Ming's back then, and if he is not selected as the champion show, he will be blind.
There is that unscrupulous media, and they simply typed the headline "Another Champion Show in China - Lu Xiaofeng".
After such guidance from the media, the focus of netizens suddenly came to "which team should Lu Xiaofeng go to".
The teams with the worst records in the NBA this year are inexplicable, and they have attracted the attention of countless Chinese fans.
The Magic, Bulls, Wizards and Hawks in the East, and the Clippers and Suns in the West, have suddenly become the focus of discussion among online fans.
"A bull, of course! Their record is so bad, they are very hopeful of winning the champion, and there is no shortage of inside lines, Lu Xiaofeng is just right to go and lead the bull to reappear in the 'flyer' style! ”
This is probably what the old fans think, the Bulls dynasty has not passed for a few years, and there are still a large number of die-hard fans in China.
Didn't Yao Ming choose the Bulls when he went to the NBA?
If it weren't for the Rockets who won the champion lottery, it really wouldn't be!
"It's better to go to the Clippers! Los Angeles! Hollywood! Big cities, there are many Chinese, as Chinese, go to definitely red! You can also play a derby with the Lakers! ”
"If there are many Chinese, it has to be San Francisco, and the Warriors' record is not much better! Maybe it's like a rocket, and the champion is drawn! ”
"I think as long as I don't go to the bitter cold places in the north, or the plateaus in the west, I can go anywhere, anyway, I can't go to the scene, watch the live broadcast, it's the same anywhere!"
"I think it's better to go to the Rockets, partner with Yao Ming, one inside and one outside, the Chinese combination, 'Demon Wind' swept the NBA! I watch the NBA 'go crazy'! ”
"As long as it's the champion, you can go anywhere, four or five million dollars a year!"
……
Some media exposed some news, saying that Lu Xiaofeng wanted to go to such and such a team, which team he had a secret agreement with, which team he went to for a trial, and so on.
But Lu Xiaofeng's Weibo appeared at the right time to refute the rumors, stating that Lu Xiaofeng's current mind is on the training of the national team.
There was also media hype, and the Basketball Association did not let Lu Xiaofeng participate in the draft, which attracted scolding from netizens.
The Basketball Association had no choice but to issue a statement on Weibo to support Lu Xiaofeng's participation in the draft.
Lu Xiaofeng signed up for the 2004 NBA draft, and the media became more and more hyped.
Lu Xiaofeng, who is in the eye of the storm, has a clear understanding of himself.
What is the "champion"? What "big city"? Although he is prepared and expectant, but the NBA of the Americans, he can't control it for the time being, and he doesn't count it.
With the arrogant urine nature of the Americans, they don't care about any world junior champions and "Most Valuable Players" at all.
I am afraid that in their eyes, any of their high school games are higher than the World Youth Championships, let alone the purest basketball game in the eyes of Americans - NCAA.
If it weren't for the opening of the Chinese market, Yao Ming might not have been able to be a champion.
In the eyes of those NBA experts, except for the players trained in the United States, the others are weak chickens, and at most they are just role players.
The Serbian big man selected by the Pistons last year, how talented the media bragged, in the end, isn't it still a parallel import?
The rebounding king Bogut and the scoring champion Creza of the World Youth Championships both went to the United States to study in college and play in the NCAA, and they are not optimistic about the draft prospects.
In this regard, Lu Xiaofeng is fully psychologically prepared, even if he loses, he will not be surprised.
This election is just a test of the waters, and since you have the qualifications, why not?
What if you choose? You can go to the highest level of league training in advance.
What if you can't choose? For him, there is no loss at all, it's a big deal to play in China for a year, and then run for election.
He only hoped that the secret trial that Duffy had arranged for him could impress those people, and considering his Chinese status, he would be able to give him a chance.
As long as he has the opportunity to compete together, he believes that his years of hard training will never be in vain.
-----------------------------------
At the beginning of June, Lu Xiaofeng quietly returned to Jiangcheng, and he promised Ye Yufei that he would take this year's college entrance examination!
Lu Xiaofeng didn't go to school, and the classmates and teachers in the class didn't know that he was back, and only a limited number of people knew about his college entrance examination.
However, on June 7, Lu Xiaofeng came out of the language test, and his participation in the college entrance examination was immediately spread to the Internet by witnesses.
The media was hilarious again.
Basketball stars take the college entrance examination, such an incredible topic, of course, has been hyped again.
Some people say that he can go directly to college if he is grandstanding, and he still comes to compete with the students for the single-plank bridge, which is too shameless.
There are those who are looking forward to his failure in the college entrance examination, and they are ready to ridicule him for "having developed limbs and a simple mind".
Some people who expect him to do well in the examination have already thought about the issue of reflecting on the combination of examination-oriented education and quality education.
There are also rational fans who speculate that if Lu Xiaofeng can't get into the NBA, he won't play anymore, but go to college.
What's more, of course, is watching the lively melon-eating masses, who are paying attention to the progress of things every day, and contributing clicks and attention to the media.
In fact, Lu Xiaofeng participated in the college entrance examination, not only because of the agreement with Ye Yufei, but also to realize his dream.
In his last life, he performed abnormally in the college entrance examination and failed to enter the university of his choice.
In this life, the university can be chosen at will, but he still has a trace of obsession with the college entrance examination.
The comprehensive paper was replaced with a liberal arts subject that he didn't know about the exam questions, and he wanted to try it, but would the result be the same as in the previous life? (To be continued.) )
