Chapter 179: Repercussions
The rain in Los Angeles was getting heavier and heavier, and the fans who braved the rain to rush out of the stadium were somewhat chaotic, and NBA officials temporarily requested the help of the Los Angeles police to maintain order at the scene. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
It was already late at night, and after about an hour or so, the fans had dispersed, and a tall team bus slowly pulled out of Staples Arena.
Outside the bus, you can hear the loud laughter of the players in the bus from a long distance.
"In the end, Chris's shot was too watery, Victor, it's all your credit!" Evan Fournier shamelessly patted the boss of the team on the back, and he was left on the pitch by his coach at the last moment, which broke him and he has been talking non-stop until now.
Oladipo laughed and said: "It should be that Lee's credit is greater, he scored 8 points in a row after playing in the last quarter, and it is estimated that tomorrow's news report should be his praise." ”
Li Dong sat on the other side of the aisle, and when he heard Oladipo say this, he shook his head helplessly: "Victor, you are too modest. ”
"Hehe, Li, you said you want to take us to your motherland to play, don't forget." Oladipo's eyes rolled, and he suddenly talked about the topic he had talked about with Li Dong in the game.
"yes, yes, I haven't been to China yet, I really want to go and have fun." Evan Fornier agreed.
Da Bali immediately nodded in agreement, "Yes, yes." ”
Li Dong had a black line, but he remembered something again, turned his face and smiled: "You haven't been to my motherland, that's really a pity." You know, we have the best food in the world, and we don't know how many ways to eat it for breakfast alone compared to your milk and bread every morning. ”
"Wow, that's cool." The exclamations of his teammates sounded in the bus, and Watson swallowed a mouthful of water unconsciously, hooked Li Dong's neck, and threatened viciously: "Stinky boy, I have decided to go to your country for a vacation next summer." ”
Li Dong shrugged his shoulders and said, "It doesn't matter, you come, I'll take you fly." ”
Haha~ Everyone laughed, and Oladipo opened his mouth and asked Li Dong: "Hey, Li, I heard that you have a beautiful girlfriend, when will you bring it out for us to meet!" ”
"What do you want to do?" Like a groundhog that has been peeped into a treasure, Li Dong immediately asked vigilantly.
"Why don't you do it, just ask." Oladipo asked with a smile.
Li Dong snorted lightly and said, "She is still in China, she will come to the United States next year, she is still a college student, and she is still studying." ”
"Oh, it's so young, so loving." Louis Williams leaned back with a smile.
Coach Skells sat in the front row, unlike the players, and he and his team of assistants were holding up Apple laptops and doing data analysis and tactical discussions on the computer. In addition, there are also reporters with the team, uploading the camera and the information in the camera to the computer, and frantically coding on the keyboard with black circles, reporters like them are also hard, there is no absolute deadline, when the manuscript comes out, when their day's task is completed.
Everyone giggled back to the hotel, and it was already past twelve o'clock in the morning.
"Go get something to eat, I'm hungry." Oladipo suggested.
Li Dong thought so, nodded in agreement, and after everyone thought about it, some of them were too tired or had eaten something else and went straight back to the room.
And Li Dong and others, under the leadership of Oladipo, found the staff of the team, got two cars, and went out for supper......
The next day, the media rushed to report on the game in which Li Dong led the team to defeat the Clippers.
With 29 points, 7 boards, 5 assists and 2 steals, Li Dong's small explosion made his score like a seesaw, breaking the 20-point mark again, even compared with Griffin's 28 points and 9 boards, it was not far behind. As a result, unscrupulous media outlets that like to intercept part of the factual report once again popped up with article titles such as "Kansas Derby, Li Dong Pierce Explodes Each Other".
On the land of China, Li Dong has become the hottest topic in the second half of 2015, and his every move has become the object of attention and imitation by fans.
Liu Kai, a student who went to college in the capital, was already smiling from ear to ear at the moment, and the signed notebook left by Li Dong to him has now become the most precious thing, and the local tyrant classmates in the same school are even willing to spend thousands of oceans to exchange. This once made him very entangled, and after a series of mental entanglements, he reluctantly refused this huge amount of money.
After telling Li Dong to hear it, Li Dong was very relieved for a while. However, it didn't take long for Li Dong to hear from Xing Jinwen's mouth that Liu Kai had simply used the notebook he gave him as a pickle girl artifact and gave it to Xing Jinwen's top bunk......
Just after the game against the Clippers, the NBA opened the voting channel for the 2016 Toronto All-Star Game.
Fifth Avenue, New York, NBA headquarters Olympic Tower Building.
The backstage staff was dumbfounded and looked at the voting data of these players that skyrocketed after the voting channel was opened, and the first one in line was not James, nor Kobe, but a rookie player - Li Dong!
Most of the IP addresses of the votes came from the far East, and even Oladipo was also ranked ahead of a group of veteran stars in this initial voting.
The staff was at ease, and if the voting results were announced at this moment, it would definitely cause an uproar.
The data was uploaded to the office of the vice president of the headquarters, and after sorting out the data, Kiki Vanderwich printed out the entire list of players in the front row and the voting data, and then left his office and walked to the office of the president of the league, knocking on the door of the president's office.
"Please come in." The voice of the old Jews was heard.
Vanderwig pushed open the door and walked in, closed the door lightly, and then walked up to the president and handed over the information: "President, this is the voting data of NBA players as of today's position. ”
Adam Shaw hummed softly, then took the A4 paper from Van Dewych's hand and read it carefully.
"The number one is actually Li Dong?" Adam Shaw's tone was a little surprised by this.
Vanderwich replied: "Yes, most of the votes from China went to Li Dong, and the number of voters was very large. ”
"In this way, Li Dong's excellent performance has caused a lot of repercussions in China!" Xiao Hua said.
Van de Verwich said: "That's true, our staff stationed in China has come to the news that Li Dong's number of fans in China is growing very fast, and unlike Yao Ming back then, he not only attracts male fans, but even female fans, and female fans seem to be more obsessed with male fans, and the data shows that the sales of jerseys and sneakers in China last month all increased by nearly 20 percent." ”
Adam Shaw exclaimed, "What a good lad. ”
Van de Wywig couldn't agree more: "The resurgence of the Chinese market is due to Li Dong's excellent performance. He does seem to be a natural star, handsome and elegant, and there are many Chinese here in New York who have formed a fan club, waiting for the next game between Li Dong and Madison Square Garden. ”
After Adam Xiao Hua pondered for a while, he said: "Let's increase the publicity of Li Dong a little bit, he and Carl Anthony Downs can make confrontational publicity, and in the new promotional video, the two of them should also be added to the dunk shot." ”
Vanderwich nodded: "Understood." ”
……
Magic's general manager's office, in front of Hannigan's computer desk.
"Didi", in the manager's mailbox, the voice of an email sounded again.
Hannigan rubbed the lighter, lit a cigarette for himself, and in the smoke filled it, clicked on a window on his computer.
"It's an old fellow Mitch Kupchak." Hannigan immediately cheered up, the New Yorkers had a lot of glory in the first two years, the leftovers were exchanged for Ariza, the robbery trade came to Pau Gasol, and the signing of Artest was an understatement, and the Lakers won two consecutive championships, and his shadow was active everywhere.
"Actually want to trade Payton just for draft picks, am I a fool?" Hannigan slowly skimmed through the emails and couldn't help but curse, throwing Kupchak's emails into the trash in minutes.
Cursing for a while, he remembered something, picked up the phone on the table, and dialed a cornet.
"Hey, Julia...... yes, sort through my emails...... Well, what are you doing now? …… Oh, okay, when you're done, I'll get in touch with Coach Doug, and yes, I'll just say I have something to look for him...... Wait, one more thing, um, can you help me get a cup of coffee? Thank you. ”
Hannigan had just hung up the phone when the voice of an email rang on his computer again.
"Hey,, what day is it?"
Hannigan rubbed his chin, these managers in the NBA are simply dognoses, he has just released a little signal to trade young point guards, and immediately received one after another offers.
"Sam Kimchi?" Hannigan gratefully clicked the email, and it was the general manager of the 76ers.
The 76ers have had a hard time this season, so far they have the lowest record in the league, and the likes of Covington and Okafor have also been pressed with data brushes, and titles such as not being able to defend are really disgraceful.
"Willing to trade Jahir Okafor, he's not afraid of being hacked by the Philadelphia fans?" Hannigan was taken aback, and this was probably the most exciting offer he'd ever received......
