Chapter 60 [Not Forgotten]
>,!
Wolverine's away wins are two in a row and the game will be in a good position. ↑,
The players were excited, especially the fourth-graders like Bobby Powell. After three seasons in a row, having never won against these two opponents, he is finally raising his eyebrows.
They started celebrating at the end of the race, getting on the bus and chatting non-stop.
Kaman is in the best mood, the guy he hated in high school, the guy who prides himself on being the boss is out of luck. Because of that rush, he wanted to invite Wang Jun to a big dinner.
David praised Wang Jun and told him not to worry, the Big Ten leagues are not as formal as professional games, and although he was sent off, he should not be suspended.
The next day, Wang Jun had a rare sleep, and received a call from Abby in bed.
Abby grinned and said, "Wang, you are famous, and you are mentioned in ESPN news." ”
"Won't it?" Wang Jun immediately sobered up. He doesn't feel like it's going to be a good thing, and it's all about Charles' injury yesterday.
"A lot of news media have reported that this is a horrific injury in the history of the NCAA......"
Wang Jun sweated on his head, and asked uncertainly: "Then you are still smiling?" Is this a good thing? ”
"It's rare that you didn't make it to the tournament and you got on the news, there was a live video posted on the Internet, and ESPN didn't think you were a malicious foul, and you definitely won't be banned." Abby coughed, disapproving.
It is indeed a good thing that "......" is not banned, and Wang Jun does not feel guilty about an arrogant guy like Charles.
He digressed from the subject. "Abby, how are you doing in Salt Lake City?"
"Very good, the internship went well, and my colleagues welcomed me......" Abby paused for a moment and asked, "I heard that you have a very old friend?" ”
"Ugh." Wang Jun was stunned, Abby actually knew.
"What's going on?"
Abby and Alyssa know each other very well, and heard about Wang Jun sharing a table with an ugly girl, but for some reason she felt a little unhappy, as if her friend had been snatched away.
Wang Jun told everything about knowing Theron, concealing that she had been a jie girl before, saying that she was a staff member on a nearby set. He didn't even hide what the two of them were talking about.
"So, I don't think you should discriminate against people who have a bad image, just like you." Wang Jun spoke for three minutes in one breath before listening to the phone and pouring himself a glass of water to drink.
How can I be so good? Looks like he cares about what I think......
This fool, we can't see each other all day in the future.
Abby sighed. "You did a good thing...... Let's do it first, I'm going to have breakfast. ”
"Okay, goodbye."
In the morning, Wang Jun didn't train and watched a replay of an NBA game at home.
Ever since Hornacek mentioned Ray Allen, he has started to pay attention to the player. However, Ray Allen is not a simple pitcher, he can also grab rebounds and break through his teammates, averaging 24+5+5 per game this season, and he can't learn his style of play for the time being.
After watching the game, Carman called again and asked him to go to tulips for dinner.
The two went to the tulip restaurant together, and as soon as they entered the door, there were people who kept greeting Wang Jun, including students and people who went to work, all of whom were fans.
"Hey, Wang, you're on the news, you played well yesterday."
"King, Chris, you've done a great job."
"Keep it this way, and I'm optimistic about you playing in the NBA in the future."
Wang Jun said a few words to everyone, thanking for the support.
He experienced firsthand how popular the NCAA is in the United States and how celebrities students can be. Especially in the Tulip Restaurant, most people support him.
After the two sat down, Carman said proudly: "This is just the beginning, if you make it to the round of 16, you will be the star of the stars." ”
"There must be more people paying attention to the NBA, right?"
"Not necessarily, in a sense, it's more popular in the NCAA in the United States."
Compared with the generosity of NBA stars, NCAA players are poor students, so many people's first reaction is that the NBA is a cash cow, in fact, in "March Madness", the NCAA is the big basketball money printing machine.
The final four venues usually choose large stadiums with a capacity of more than 30,000 people, which has become a tradition for the NCAA, and tickets are naturally a considerable number.
The Round of 64 tournament covers almost all of the country's universities, and universities are the stage where every American's life blends a sense of belonging and honor, with fans ranging from presidents to peddlers. Most importantly, NCAA basketball in its purest form allows everyone to dive into it.
NBA fans don't have a strong sense of belonging, for example, Detroit is a Motor City, and the fans are mostly blue-collar workers, Los Angeles is rich like a cloud, and a group of rich fans are fans of the Lakers.
The two chatted for a while, and Charlize Theron sent a text message to Wang Jun, asking him if he would come to dinner at noon.
Wang Jun replied with a message. "I'm already in Tulip, I came back yesterday."
Charlie sent a "see you in a moment".
Fifteen minutes later, Theron came to the Tulip Restaurant, saw Wang Jun and Carman sitting together, was stunned for a moment, and stepped forward.
"Charlie, this is Chris, Chris, this is Charlie." Wang Jun said.
Theron nodded and said hello, and said lightly, "You talk, I won't bother." ”
Wang Jun ignored Kaman, who was looking at him, and asked, "Let's sit together, how boring are you eating by yourself?" ”
"No, I often eat alone, leave me alone, the table is still empty anyway." Theron pointed to Wang Jun's seat.
Wang Jun's persuasion was fruitless, so he had to sit separately.
Theron ordered, and Wang Jun's chair was facing her, listening to Carman's nagging and observing her.
He noticed that Theron's expression was melancholy, and he thought of the previous text message, and wondered if she had something to share.
Leaving her to dry now, he felt a little guilty in his heart.
Carman also noticed and whispered, "Maybe she has something to say to you." ”
"Hmm."
"Anyway, I'm done eating, you can go and talk to her for a while." Carman quickly finished the last few bites with a gloating expression.
Although Carman didn't say it directly, Wang Jun knew that he looked down on Charlie. He didn't dwell on it, and he didn't feel embarrassed to know Charlie, and said with a smile: "Then I'm over, I'm sorry." ”
"You talk first, I'm going back. Good bye. Carman beckoned to Theron, paid the bill and left the restaurant.
Theron asked Wang Jun unexpectedly. "Why did he go first?"
"There's something going on with him going back."
"Then why don't you go?"
"I want to talk to you for a while, I came early, I'm done eating, now I see if you don't mind eating, right?" Wang Jun smiled and sat down across from her.
"I'm in a bad mood today and I really want to talk to someone." Theron smiled slightly.
She has a good friend of the opposite sex named Stuart Townsend. They collaborated on the film "Step by Step Crisis" last year, and they have been in touch ever since, and she began to think about further development.
But after she took over the script of "The Female Devil" and gained weight and disfigurement for this movie, Townsend didn't move, and he didn't even make phone calls.
Although Townsend is very busy and is filming "The League of Gentlemen" in the UK, Theron believes that the problem lies in her appearance, and now she makes people unable to mention meeting **.
She wanted to ask Wang Jun if all men fancy his appearance, or is it only the handsome guy Townsend who is like this?
Wang Jun and Carman ate together, she thought she had found the answer, but she didn't expect Wang Jun to be willing to leave her teammates and chat with her, a "crew handyman", she was not forgotten.
