Li Chen sat at the post-match press conference with a smile on his face, and it could be seen from his expression that it seemed that this guy was already enjoying Christmas in advance.

"Lee, I would like to ask what makes you smile so happily?" A reporter maliciously asked, "You know, it was because you missed both free throws that the Lakers lost in the end!" ”

Yes, in the free throws just now, Li Chen missed two free throws in a row under the watchful eyes of the audience. At 99:100, the Lakers lost to the Celtics by 1 point, and Truth Pierce finally saved face for himself with his unyielding.

As soon as this question came out, all the reporters began to look forward to Li Chen's answer, and they hoped that this rookie could say something exciting to help the newspaper sell more tomorrow. The audience was also staring at the live broadcast, and everyone wanted to know why Li Chen, who had missed both free throws, could smile so brightly.

accidentally caught a glimpse of the nameplate hanging on the reporter who asked the question, and the identity of the other party made Li Chen swallow back the words that were squeezed into his throat, and then said with a very disdainful look.

"You're a reporter for the Chicago Sun? I'm sorry, I don't want to answer any of your questions, and don't expect me to be interviewed unless you publish a public apology to me! ”

Everyone knew about the rumors spread by this media before the game, and Li Chen believed that even if he did this, no one would stand up and blame, but he understood that even if he refused to answer this reporter's question, there would always be other reporters who would stand up and ask the same question. Because this is the highlight of this press conference, he can't escape if he wants to.

Sure enough, despite the embarrassment and anger of the first reporter, the second reporter quickly stood up.

"Hello, Lee, I'm a reporter from the New York Times, and my question is the same as that Chicago counterpart, and I would like to ask if the reason for this is that you have irreconcilable conflicts with the Lakers management, as the outside world expects? That's why you're so happy when the Lakers lose! ”

As soon as this remark came out, everyone's attention was more focused, this question seemed to them to be much more exciting than the previous one, the Lakers and Li Chen had irreconcilable contradictions? If that's the case, then aren't the managers of the league's teams busy, the attraction of the Big Apple is irresistible to any team, and everyone doesn't doubt the future of the Big Apple, the only question is who will the future of the Big Apple belong to?

The New Yorkers have their own little calculations, in their opinion, if Li Chen broke out with the management on such an important occasion, then there would be no possibility between him and the Lakers, Lakers fans will not allow a player who treats the team's failure as a child's play to continue to stay in the team, and other teams will also hesitate to introduce the Big Apple because of Li Chen's hidden dangers in work ethic. And after that, except for the Knicks, who are in love with Li Chen, there is no other possibility for the future of the Big Apple!

In the face of this tricky question, the people of Los Angeles were also unnaturally nervous, if Li Chen's answer was slightly wrong, the consequences would definitely be huge.

Li Chen left the team, the Lakers lost the important puzzle piece of the championship, and if they couldn't win the championship, the management would doubt Kobe's ability, and at the same time, Kobe would be dissatisfied with the team's configuration, and the contradictions accumulated over the years would definitely all erupt, and the complex internal situation would discourage outstanding players in the free market, and a series of reactions made people have to worry about whether Li Chen would be the first to fall and move the whole body.

Under the gaze of everyone, Li Chen slowly spoke, but his expression did not change at all, Meizizi's smile was always the same, and the brightness made people wonder if this guy was ready to change his career to act in idol dramas, after all, with his handsome face, he was no less than those popular idols in Hollywood.

"I have two answers, A or B, which one do you want to hear first?" Regardless of the reporters' murderous eyes, Li Chen was leisurely.

"A, can you tell me the answer A first?" Although he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the other party's gourd, the reporter couldn't manage it so much, he just wanted Li Chen to speak quickly, no matter what he would say, it would definitely be the focus of tomorrow's news.

Li Chen smiled indifferently, "Answer A, it's very simple, isn't it Christmas today?" I don't think on such an important day, no matter what happens, you can't show sadness, otherwise, it will bring bad luck to next year! Do you think I should be angry or crying for Christmas? ”

The answer A is really very simple, the reason is just because of Christmas, although Christmas can't cover up Li Chen's mistakes, but reporters have to admit that a meaningful day like Christmas is indeed not suitable for some negative emotions!

In Western countries, the importance of Christmas is equivalent to the meaning of the Spring Festival to China, but the slight difference is that unlike the busy visit to relatives and friends during the Spring Festival, Westerners generally only visit relatives and friends during the Christmas holiday, and warm family affection is the main color of Christmas.

"I want to be the happiest I can be in front of my mother, you know, I love her, and I haven't seen her in a long time!" Li Chen moved out of Laura, but he didn't lie, the instinct of his body told Li Chen that it was time for him to go home!

What about answer B? I think you have something to say about the team's loss, right? "Unwilling reporters can only pin their hopes on the answer B, which is not yet known.

Sure enough, when it came to answer B, Li Chen's expression suddenly changed, and his warm smile turned into a solemn face at this time, the change in the expression of the big apple made the reporters feel that there was a play, and the equipment was fully turned on, and they wanted to record what Li Chen was about to say without missing a word.

"Answer B?" Li Chen muttered, then sat up straight, and finally said the answer that people had been waiting for for a long time.

"I know that the team lost, and it was largely because of me, so that's why you guys are weird about my smile, and I don't deny the mistakes I made." Li Chen first clarified his responsibilities, and his frank attitude made people look forward to what he would say next.

"It's just, I think you understand, first of all, it's just a regular season game, and even if you think it's important, it's still just a regular season game in my opinion, and my teammates and coaches have the same opinion as me, so it's just a normal loss in our opinion, and it doesn't make any difference to what we want to do."

The reporter of the Chicago Sun-Times couldn't sit still, Li Chen's previous actions had already made him hold his breath, and now he finally seized the opportunity to retaliate, which made him a little impatient.

"Sir, we all know it's just a regular season, but you have to know that your opponent is the Celtics, and if you want to win the championship this season, then the Celtics are the reality that you have to face, and now the first time you meet you end up losing. I'm sorry, but I don't think it's a big deal, it just proves that the Lakers are still a certain distance from the defending champions. ”

The reporter's clear position made the reporter a little proud, he felt that Li Chen would definitely be unable to resist, if the other party was annoyed and angry, it would be even more of his wish, he believed that the live TV broadcast would unreservedly spread the ugliness of the Big Apple all over the world.

The Big Apple's performance was a bit of a surprise to him, though.

Li Chen looked at the reporter in front of him playfully, who was like a clown, the villain's expression was completely portrayed on the other party's face, and he smiled slightly, he behaved like a gentleman with a rich culture.

"Sir, can you wait for me to say yes? It's not a gentleman's job to interrupt someone! ”

The flashing lights at the scene flashed wildly, and the-for-tat confrontation between the Big Apple and the reporter was exciting. The former was calm, the latter was uneasy, and the media believed that if the two photos were put together, the newspapers would be very happy, and as for what their peers would think, that was not something they should consider.

Signaling to stop taking pictures at the scene, Li Chen continued.

"I know you guys are ultimately wondering why I'm putting on the most inappropriate face when it's inopportune, and I want to say that the fact that the team lost, no matter how sad or angry I was, that can't be changed. So, it's the same loss, why can't I choose to face it with a smile? ”

"I know a lot of the responsibility is on me, and the reason why I'm laughing is just because I want to tell the fans who support the Lakers through my smile that this loss didn't intimidate us, I laugh because we can accept it, we realize our shortcomings, we will try to improve, and when we meet the Green Shirts again, I believe that we will win cleanly."

In the end, Li Chen summed up the meaning he wanted to express into one sentence.

"Optimistic only because we are brave!"

Li Chen's words were vigorous, and the atmosphere of the scene gradually fell silent after his impassioned words.

After a long time, the silence was broken by a burst of applause, followed by applause from the audience, and the flashing lights were also working non-stop.

"Hey Cruz, I'm sorry for what I said before the game! From now on, I will see you as a worthy opponent! The leader of the applause was none other than Paul Pearce, who received the middle finger before the game, but at this moment, the anger on the face of the leather team has long been gone, and the team's victory made him feel honored, and in his opinion, for the insults of others, victory is the best response.

"Hey, old guy, don't be complacent, even if you wantonly cut points on my head in this game, as long as you give me a year, you will no longer be my hindrance!" Li Chen's face regained his previous smile, and he behaved very calmly in the face of Pierce's words.

"Well, well, then I'll wait for you!" Pierce, who was entangled with Li Chen, knew that in terms of verbal skills, he would definitely not be the opponent of this seemingly harmless rookie in front of him.

Li Chen's performance spread all over the world with the live broadcast, and he himself knew that his words would cause widespread controversy, some people might say that he was not dedicated enough, lacked a deep understanding of the failure of the game, and his professional attitude was worrying, but in the same way, people who loved him would also think that he dared to face pressure, had the courage to take responsibility, and was a real man.

But now, all this has nothing to do with Li Chen, and all he thinks about now is two words-"Go home!" ”。

Like a wanderer who has not returned home for a long time, Li Chen can't wait to return to the place where everything began, there, there is a person who is the most important to him, unlike his relatives, they are not related by blood, but Li Chen knows that if he puts his biological parents and Laura together, he will definitely choose the latter without hesitation, feelings are not innate, there is no acquired accumulation, and no matter how close the blood relationship is, it is only a blind game.

Kobe Bryant said goodbye to Li Chen on behalf of the team, the boss was not as optimistic as Li Chen, and it was the same thing, but Li Chen could see that the shadow of the game loss was still hidden in the boss's heart.

"Rookie, although I don't completely agree with your attitude, one thing you are right about is that this is just the regular season and it doesn't mean anything! So, enjoy your Christmas night to the fullest, and don't forget to say Merry Christmas to your adoptive mother on my behalf! ”

It can be seen from Kobe's speech that he did not blame Li Chen at all, and the boss always believed that the responsibility was on himself.

Li Chen didn't say anything, stepped forward and gave the boss a hug, then turned around and left without looking back, waved his hand to signal goodbye to the boss, his farewell ceremony was a little domineering, and Kobe Bryant looked a little distracted.

After a long time, the boss roared in the empty square.

"Bastard! I've just put on a dress, and you dare to leave a handprint on it, and wait and see, you're finished, rookie! ”

Of course, Li Chen will not hear the boss's roar, the successful prank makes him feel good, at this moment, he is already sitting on the passenger plane from Los Angeles to New York with a smile on his face, the first Christmas after rebirth, Li Chen is looking forward to it!
