The Rockets split, Toyota also had dissatisfaction with Alexander, Hayes is the star of the endorsement of Toyota, but the Rockets did not sign with him, Yao Ming therefore also asked for a transfer, which greatly affected Toyota's sales in China, originally also expected to take advantage of Hayes has a large number of Chinese fans to open the Chinese market, as a result, now the Chinese boycott Alexander and Toyota together.

The transfer is not a bad thing for Hayes. There are more companies looking for him as an endorsement. The merchants are very shrewd, and Hayes was originally not as influential as Yao Ming and Maddie, but after the transfer, he is likely to become the star of a team and may play more beautiful statistics.

In addition, several teams officially invited him to join, and Hayes had already agreed to go to the Bobcats, so he politely declined. He's focused on researching the draft and trying to pick the best players for each pick. Hayes and Jordan discussed not divulging the news that he had signed with Bobcats before the draft was over. Hayes' delay in signing with other teams is like he is still giving the Rockets a chance to keep him, which can allow Yao Ming to continue the cold war with the Rockets, and can make Chinese fans hate Alexander and Morey even more, which will help Yao Ming force the palace.

Hayes transfers. But his family will remain in Houston. Since their autistic brother is being treated systematically at Houston Hospital, and their life here is just stable and comfortable, they have no plans to move. Neighbors, while regretting that Hayes couldn't stay with the Rockets, also supported his decision and wished Hayes a superstar on other teams.

The draft has been arranged, and the NBA draft will be drawn on May 23. June 4-7 NBA Draft Bootcamp, June 19 NBA Draft Registration Deadline, June 28 2007 NBA Draft, held at Madison Square Garden in New York.

The rules of the NBA draft lottery are as follows: 14 ping-pong balls marked with numbers 1 through 14 are placed in a drum-shaped barrel, which is a lottery machine, and any four balls are taken from them to form a combination. Whichever team has this combination gets this signing.

There will be a total of 1001 combinations. If the combination of 11, 12, 13, and 14 is ignored, the remaining 1,000 results will be randomly assigned to 14 teams by the computer. The worse that team's regular season results, the more numerical combinations they get. For example, the Grizzlies got 250 number combinations this year, and the Trail Blazers only had 53 number combinations. In theory, the Grizzlies have the best chance of getting the top pick, and in practice every team that doesn't make the playoffs is possible.

In addition to his own first-round pick, the Bobcats traded a first-round pick with the Raptors, and at Hayes' request, Jordan sent veteran Derrick Anderson in exchange for a second-round pick for the Magic. With the addition of Azubuke, Weaver and others, Anderson has no place on the Bobcats. Although the Magic's second-round pick will not be very high, Hayes is satisfied and said that it is enough.

On the 22nd, after examination, Hayes's knee was completely fine. He contacted Magic Johnson and prepared to fly to Los Angeles three days later to start training, as for what stadium to train, it is to be determined when he arrives in Los Angeles.

A phone call from Hollywood director Peter Borg, who has not been contacted for a long time, changed Hayes's original schedule. This friend is finally ready to make a movie.

"Chuck, I've been seeing your name on the news every day lately, how are you doing?"

"I'm fine, how are you?" Hayes asked.

Peter Borg smiled: "I've been quite busy lately, the script has been confirmed, the sci-fi theme, and I'm ready to start shooting next month, can you come to the audition tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?" It's a black man who plays the lead role, and as long as you audition for it, I can let you star in it. I think it's a role that's made for you. ”

"Auditions? I'm going to go to Los Angeles in three days, but it's going to take a long time to make a movie with Magic Johnson, right? I probably don't have much to spare. "Hayes was interested in making movies, but practice was more important and he didn't want to waste time making movies.

"I'm very familiar with Erwin, he likes to join in the fun, he's made cameos in movies before, and he's also filmed Michael Jackson's MTV, why don't you just go to Hollywood and practice? There are venues here. I'll give him a call and ask him to make a cameo too! Peter Borg immediately suggested.

When I went to Hollywood to practice, Hayes really didn't expect it before, and it sounded very interesting. Johnson's practice needs to be gradual, and it's nice to take a break in Hollywood. The combination of fun and practice is a good choice.

"Peter, what's the name of the movie you're going to make?"

"It's called 'Hancock'! A drunkard Superman who wears casual clothes and wreaks havoc everywhere...... You're auditioning! I wish you could play it, it must be fun! Peter Borg laughed: "Will Smith will also come to audition, this is a big-budget movie!" If we're in a hurry, we should finish filming before the new season starts, and we can take our time in post-production and computer effects! ”

"You say...... Let me play? Hayes almost crushed the phone and asked with his mouth wide open, suspecting he had misheard.

“《hancock》！” Peter Borg repeated:

Peter Borg didn't know about the other movies Hayes had made, but this one he liked very much in his previous life and said excitedly. "Go, I'm going to audition. If I can't play the leading role, I'll make a cameo role. I'll go find you tomorrow! ”

"Good! I'll wait for you. You can take a look at the script, I'll send it to your mailbox. Peter Borg said.

Peter Borg also wanted to use Hayes' fame for hype. Hayes has been so popular recently, as long as he is allowed to play it, even if it is just for him to play a cameo role, this movie can attract the attention of many people, there are gimmicks, and there is no worry about the box office. It's a VFX blockbuster that doesn't require too much acting, the only problem is that Hayes hasn't taken acting classes, and as long as he doesn't perform too badly on camera, Peter Borg wants him to try it.

After talking to Peter Borg, Hayes called Johnson again.

"Erwin, just now Peter Borg called me, he pitched for a movie next month, he said he wanted me to go to auditions, I said I wanted to practice with you, and he suggested that we set up a practice pitch in Hollywood. Do you think it will work? Are you interested in making a cameo appearance in the movie as well? ”

"Okay. I like that guy. I've known him since "Jungle Cavalry". Anyway, your training needs to be gradual, mainly to practice coordination, only two to three hours a day is enough, we have a good entertainment in Hollywood! If you're going to practice, I'm not willing to accompany you. Go! Let that guy help contact the venue, there is a training ground inside Hollywood, and if you don't make basketball-related movies, TV, it's always empty. If you shoot, you can also make cameos in those films. Ha ha. ”

Magic Johnson is not a paranoid man who only knows how to play, otherwise he would not have such a domineering illness as AIDS. He didn't plan to accompany Hayes to practice, he thought it was useless, practicing passing was mainly based on talent, and practicing coordination for two hours a day was enough. The rest of the time you can do something else entirely. He has long said that he hopes Hayes will relax and treat practicing in Los Angeles as a vacation. To Hollywood, it is exactly what he wants.

After the two discussed, Hayes went to the opposite apartment to find Gao Tongxuan, and said excitedly: "Can you help me book a ticket for tonight?" I'm going to Los Angeles today, remember what I said about Peter Borg? He was going to make a movie and asked me to audition. Hahaha. ”

Seeing that Hayes was in a good mood, Gao Tongxuan asked curiously, "What kind of movie is it?" You don't even want to practice anymore? ”

"It's a sci-fi film, it's fun, and tomorrow Will Smith is going to audition, and I'll see if I can meet him. If you participate in this movie, you can at least work with that guy. Of course, the ball still has to be practiced, and I told Johnson to practice in Hollywood, and I won't delay. Hayes laughed.

"You mean Will Smith, who starred in "Men in Black" and "Reading Force"?" Gao Tongxuan's eyes flashed with little stars, she also likes to watch movies, and many women have a little yearning for Hollywood.

"It's him, besides him, the heroine may be Charlize Theron, I don't know if I have a chance to play against the 'female devil'. It's exciting to think about. Hayes laughed.

"Can I go with you? I also want to see Hollywood. Gao Tongxuan asked. She didn't want to see Hollywood, she wanted to stay with Hayes. If Hayes is gone, she doesn't want to stay in Houston either.

"Absolutely, and we're ready to move, and now that we've signed Bobcats, we're going to have to find a house in Charlotte before training camp begins. Buy a villa directly this time, a little more extravagant. I've made so much money, and I haven't spent much yet. That's up to you and Taylor. Find a house that you both like, and buy it. Hayes said.

"This ...... It's better for you and Taylor to go and see it, because you're going to live. Gao Tongxuan's heart warmed slightly, and Hayes said to let her and Taylor go to find a house, which sounded like an invitation to live with her.

Hayes patted his head and smiled, "I'm sorry, I seem to have forgotten to ask you, would you like to live with me?" I'm ready to be addicted to the eldest young master, are you interested in being the eldest lady, or the hostess? ”

"Of course. If it's a villa, there must be a lot of room, it's too wasteful for the two of you to stay. Gao Tongxuan said happily: "When Taylor is free, I will go to Charlotte with her." One thing I wonder, you've always lived in this apartment and don't buy a big house, did you never want to stay in the rocket? ”

"I was poor when I first came to Houston, and it feels good to live here. Later, there were too many games, and I was too lazy to buy a house, which is close to the stadium. Fortunately, I didn't buy it, otherwise I wouldn't have to sell it for a long time, which was very troublesome. You can pack up too, let's go to Los Angeles tonight and audition in Hollywood tomorrow. Let's see if Peter can arrange a role for you, you are like a star, and you usually have time, maybe you can enter the showbiz in the future. Hayes laughed.

"If it's a film you starred in, I can think about it." Gao Tongxuan smiled slightly and said, "I'm going to book a ticket." ”
