Chapter 225: Request for Interview
Chapter 225 asks for an interview
Smith: If the Rockets can make the playoffs, Yao Ming will be the best player on the team.
Buckley: I'm almost crazy to hear you, you're incredible.
Smith: I've studied the numbers and techniques of Garnett's NBA debut for the Timberwolves, and Yao Ming is very similar to Garnett, Garnett scored 19 points after 15 games, and Yao Ming was able to score 2o points in 15 games.
Barkley: Then I'll bet you that if Yao Ming scores more than 19 points in a game, I'll kiss your ass.
This is the two retired veterans of the Rockets, Kenny. Smith and Charles. Barkley was joined by TNT's live commentary on the Rockets vs. Warriors on Nov. 1O.
There is a lot of buzz in the media, whether you can kiss Kenny or not. Smith's ass, how long does it take to kiss Barkley's ass became a great topic.
Obviously, Barkley did not put a time limit on this game. Smith's 15-game limit has also been artificially forgotten. Without this restriction, it basically announced Charles. Barkley's defeat, but Barkley was also a winner, he once again put himself in the spotlight of the world, and for the first time he made the Chinese recognize him, although he was not known for basketball. Rather, he was known for betting on Yao Ming's score.
As soon as we stepped out of Houston International Airport, we were surrounded by reporters, most of whom were yellow-skinned and black-headed Chinese.
As the big center who is about to PK with Yao Ming, I became the target of all Chinese journalists.
"Mr. Brown, can you tell us what you think of this game?"
"The main center of the Rockets is Yao Ming, the champion from China this year, do you know him?"
"When do you think Yao Ming will be able to adapt to the rhythm of the NBA, and when will he be able to show his strength?"
"As this year's champion, Yao Ming will become your lifelong enemy, do you have anything to say to Yao Ming?" ……
Although I knew in my previous life that Yao Ming's entry into the NBA caused a big, big wave, I still underestimated the crazy Chinese. As a competitive league ruled by blacks, the yellow-skinned, black-headed and black-eyed Chinese became the top pick, which brought great glory to the Chinese people, and this is not only Chinese interviews, Koreans, Japanese, and even West Asians are all together, this is not only the glory of Chinese, in the eyes of those people, this is the glory of Asians. Of course, if Koreans claim that Yao Ming's ancestors are Korean, I don't mind inciting some fans to whip him hard.
Outside the airport was not a place for interviews, the airport security opened the way for us, and the team slowly walked towards the bus that the league had prepared for us.
Sitting in my seat and looking at those gracious faces, I felt a little happy because they were the people closest to me.
"It's crazy!" Carlos. Boozer sat down next to me and said, "This is the craziest interview I've ever seen!" It's just the away game, just out of the airport. ”
"They are all from Yao Ming's country! They are following Yao Ming, and they are all here to interview Yao Ming! We're just going to play him for a game, and you'll know what madness is when Yao Ming shows up! "Christian. Lightner said as he packed his bags.
"Yes! Do you know how many Chinese media outlets are stationed in Houston? "Michael. Jordan sold off the door.
"How many?" I'm also a little curious, although I know that Yao Ming is very hot in this era in later generations, but I really don't know the specific number.
"Saying it scares you to death! It's a full 1oo home! Yao Ming is going to hold a press conference, and the whole room can't hold their people! "Michael. Jordan said.
"What a tmd envy! In order to report on one person, there are 1oo media outlets stationed in Houston for a long time! This is simply the treatment of a king! No! That's even higher than the king's salary! "Chauncey. Billups pouted, a look of envy.
"Ding......" My phone rang!
It's David. Hunter, my agent, I quickly pressed the answer button.
"Kwame, are you in Houston?"
"Just arrived!"
"Do you speak Chinese?" David. Hunter asked thoughtlessly.
"Will say a little!" I hastened to reply, albeit a little strangely.
"That's good! I have just agreed to be interviewed by several media outlets from China, and I will pick you up when you arrive at the hotel, and I am now setting up a room for the interview in the hotel opposite you......"
"This?" I was stunned!
"Kwame! Listen to me, don't blame me for taking matters into your own hands, this is the best way to expand your influence, do you know how many people there are in all of China? They have a population of 1.3 billion, and if you interview them, you think about 1.3 billion people watching you on TV, what a spectacle it would be, and 1.3 billion people know you! Oh my God! I'm excited when I think about it! ”
"They'll ask a lot what you think of Yao Ming! You have to say good things about Yao Ming, you have to praise him for his great basketball talent, to be able to become a superstar in this world, even if you say that he will become the greatest center in the whole universe, you must say that they are good! ”
"And! Use Chinese words as much as possible to say good things about Yao Ming, which will bring you closer to them, didn't you write a book "Prison Break"? This will make your book sell to China, if you think about how many people in the United States can sell 2oo copies, and the Chinese population is 1.3 billion, how can your book sell millions of copies! Boy, answer their questions well, it will increase your business value ......" David. There was a kind of excitement in Hunt's voice, and David. Hunt clearly miscalculated the Chinese's ability to innovate in the piracy business.
"Also, they'll ask you what you think about Barkley's bet that Yao Ming won't get 19 points, and you remember, you have to say that Yao Ming will definitely get more than 19 points, and they'll ask you about how long Yao Ming will get more than 19 points, and you just say a time, and then you make a bet, and you say that if you lose, you donate $10,000 to the Red Cross......"
"Ahh I'll bet $10,000 too! "I was taken aback and I was shocked by David. Hunt's arrangement felt a little incredible.
"Listen! Kwamei, whether you lose $10,000 or not, you are the ultimate beneficiary of this bet, even if you donate $10,000, but what you get is the friendship of the whole of China! You must know that China and the United States are now in a honeymoon period, the economic exchanges between the two countries are gradually strengthening, if you just use this 10,000 dollars to buy friendship, you earn, you will get a lot of big contracts from Chinese companies, they will frantically look for you to endorse all kinds of goods, they will spend money to invite you to participate in various activities, they will ...... "David. Hunter kept talking about the benefits of me currying favor with Yao Ming.
I put down the phone, and suddenly everyone on the bus was staring at me, as if they were staring at a bundle of dollars, and their eyes were all green.
"You're there! Kwame! 1.3 billion people! "Larry. Hughes let out an exclamation.
"I can imagine how many Chinese companies will be crazy to endorse all kinds of products from you, and I believe it won't be long before you will be covered with a bunch of Chinese famous brands. Even if you repair the comb of small * hair, I believe that there are Chinese sponsoring you! Oh my God! I felt like I was teammates with a bundle of dollars! Oh my God! "Larry. Hughes looked stunned.
"Kwame, take me to this interview!"
"Take me!"
"I'm going too!"
There were a total of 12 teammates, and it turned out that 1o people were going to go, and only Mielke. The old god Jordan is still there, and as for the remaining spot, I have to go.
There was a frenzy on the bus. I had to stand up and answer:
"Those who can Chinese will go, and those who can't Chinese will learn well Chinese and then go, ha......"
"Brown! You guy is playing tricks......"
"Kwame! You kid, you're such a bastard! ”
