Aaron Iverson!

When he received the call from AI, Chamberlain was still full of doubts, what was the answer to call him? As a result, after answering the phone, he saw a person with a suitcase not far away waving at him, holding a Nokia mobile phone in his hand, no doubt that it was Iverson.

"Boy, I heard you're going back to organize a charity contest?" After the meeting, Iverson and Chamberlain hugged and asked.

Chamberlain nodded, "Yes, you know Allen, there is a terrible earthquake in my country, and I am going to a city not far from that place to hold a charity race, just like you did in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina a few years ago." ”

Iverson punched him and shouted, "Why don't you give me a letter?" I competed after Hurricane Katrina and of course I would like to race after the earthquake. ”

Chamberlain was really taken aback when he heard this, what level of star is Iverson? Now, if you were to pick three of the most popular stars in the league, Iverson would definitely have a place among them. He saw Iverson show up at the airport with his luggage in tow, and thought he was going to visit San Francisco, never thinking that he would go to China with him.

Iverson has received many invitations to visit China before, both official and unofficial, but he has never been to China, in fact, he rarely leaves the United States, except for the Olympics or the World Championships and other games, for this charity game, Chamberlain invited a lot of NBA stars, it can be said that he posted a hero post, but the most reluctant response is still a few, for this consideration, he did not send invitations to Iverson, Duncan and other top stars, isn't that self-inflicted?

"You're not serious, are you?" Chamberlain guessed Iverson's decision and was overjoyed.

Iverson didn't say a word, opened his suitcase and began to rummage, and finally found a green notebook and handed it to Chamberlain, saying, "I even brought my passport!" ”

Everyone in the NBA has a passport because they have to go to Canada every season to play — against the Raptors.

Chamberlain was overjoyed, hugged Iverson and shouted: "Damn, great, I was worried that our charity game was not supported by superstars, it's great that you're here!" ”

Iverson laughed, but there was a melancholy in his eyes, which Chamberlain didn't notice.

On this trip to China, the stars are all responsible for the expenses of the Z Fund, Richards means direct charter, but Chamberlain rejected the proposal, he is a bitter child, and the money that should not be spent will not be spent, and this time he invited to play a charity game with his friends in the NBA, these people are not going to China for enjoyment.

However, with Iverson joining, Chamberlain regretted a little that there was no charter flight, but fortunately, they were both first-class and not too shabby.

The news of Chamberlain's return to China has long been publicized by the Z Fund, so when their plane landed at Beijing Capital International Airport on July 1, almost the entire airport was surrounded by fans, and when the plane landed, you could see that it was dark outside the airport from the air.

There has never been a time when such NBA stars have come to China in a group, and Chinese fans are boiling!

Which players did Oxlade-Chamberlain invite this time? The Warriors are here for the most part, and all the main forces are here, which is mandatory for Chamberlain, anyway, they have to take advantage of the summer vacation to find a place to vacation, and Chamberlain directly chose the place for them to be China: "My grandfather said that China has a long history and culture, and the land is vast and rich, do you want to see the scenery or visit the historical resorts?" China has it all! And the Olympics, let's go, all to China! ”

This time there are at least 50,000 fans who came to the Capital International Airport, which shows how terrifying Chamberlain's popularity in China is, Li Qun helped him make the choice to join the Chinese nationality is absolutely correct, which helps his influence too much, the Chinese-American Chamberlain is only a super center, and the Chinese Chamberlain may become a famous figure in the history of world sports.

With so many fans surrounding the international airport and their cars, it was almost all around the airport, and passengers could not walk an inch when they left the airport, only to find out that Chamberlain and several NBA stars had flown back on the same flight as them.

This made the fans among the passengers very depressed, knowing that the road was blocked at the exit gate, how good it was to find Chamberlain to sign an autograph and take a group photo, but it was gone.

In fact, this is the reason why fans don't know that Iverson is also coming to play charity games, otherwise, the number of people is enough to double! Although Iverson's popularity in China is not the first among NBA stars, in 2008, there was no problem in saying that he could rank in the top three, only Maddie and Kobe Bryant could overpower him, and others, such as Little Emperor and Wolf King, were at most tied with him, or even worse.

Chamberlain and the others came out a little late, not because they played big names, but because a group of flight attendants and flight attendants surrounded them to sign autographs and take photos.

As soon as Chamberlain appeared, a landslide and tsunami cheers rang out outside the airport, and countless people shouted: "Chamberlain! Welcome home! ”

As Chamberlain walked out, the fans began to boil, the crowd was so crowded that the airport had to gather all the security guards to maintain order, which was the result of the full support of the Beijing Municipal Public Security Brigade.

Seeing so many fans crowded outside, along with Chamberlain, were shocked, West, Bowen, Big Ben and others have never encountered this kind of situation, they don't have such fanatical fans in the United States, Chamberlain has no such experience, the last time he returned to China in early June, he participated in the joint training of the men's basketball team, so he went directly to the stadium in Beijing in a very low-key manner, and the fans didn't know that he was back.

Billups is a man who has seen the big world, and the scene was not small when the Pistons won the championship and celebrated around the city, so he can still keep his composure and smile and wave to the fans around him.

The fans were thrilled to see Billups, and thousands of people shouted to him: "Thank you, Chauncey, thank you for passing the ball to Chamberlain!" ”

West, who was regarded by Chamberlain as an iron buddy, was also very popular, and many fans in attendance also wore his jersey and the championship specially launched the 'Mad Dog Generation' sneakers for him.

The real **** is still Iverson playing, Chamberlain deliberately arranged for AI to be the last one to appear, when I saw Iverson with a trench hairstyle, dressed up in hip-hop trends, and wearing a pair of big sunglasses come out, the fans in front were directly stunned, and the people in the back couldn't see what they didn't know what to do, and the people in front suddenly stopped squeaking - Iverson was really a little short, and the people behind couldn't see him.

Then, after a brief silence, a landslide and tsunami of cheers rang out, which even drowned out Chamberlain's cheers when he appeared: "Answer! Answer! Answer! ”

Generally speaking, NBA stars don't want to go abroad because they have advertising contracts in place, and for promotional purposes, if they often go abroad to appear, the publicity effect is not very good, after all, eating abalone every day is not the same as eating abalone once in a lifetime.

No one expected Iverson to suddenly appear in China, even Chamberlain was shocked at the time, let alone the fans?

Iverson took off his sunglasses and smiled and waved to the fans, seeing his trademark shy smile, some female fans were so excited that they almost fainted, this is the success of the NBA, Stern almost deified these stars into gods in the hearts of fans!

The reporters who came to the scene were even more excited, countless long guns and short cannons 'crackled' non-stop, and reporters from several media such as CCTV Sports, Sohu Sports, Phoenix Sports, Yahoo Sports, and Tencent Sports were admitted to the venue, and these people directly surrounded Chamberlain and others, and they were comfortable when there were more stars, and almost everyone had stars to entertain.

The stars are very face-saving to Chamberlain, and the unified voice is to cooperate with Chamberlain to participate in charity games and watch the Olympics, Bowen is more able to speak, in the face of reporters' interviews, he first flattered Chinese culture, and then praised their men's basketball strength this year: "You have five NBA-level players, including Wang who once played in the Mavericks, which is amazing, and the most important thing is that you also have two All-Star insiders, Z and Yao!" I think this year's Chinese team's interior line is the strongest in the world, including the American team, and their interior strength is not as good as yours! ”

In the eager voice of the fans, Chamberlain and others walked for more than half an hour before getting on the bus leaving the airport, in fact, if they want to go, they can also leave quickly, they have a special channel, but the fans have been waiting for them outside the airport for so long, how can they pat their butts and leave? Needless to say, how hot the sun is in July, not to mention that this is still Beijing, as soon as Chamberlain and others came out, they felt the rolling heat wave coming, not to mention the fans who had been waiting for a long time?

They stayed at the scene for more than half an hour, during which they shifted the position of the interview many times, Chamberlain kept high-fives with the peripheral fans, and when he reached the closest, his palms were almost numb, and most of the other stars just participated in the interview, only West, Billups, Evans, and Chamberlain had the most iron relationship with him, and he had a simple interaction with the fans.

It was more than three o'clock in the afternoon when Chamberlain and the others arrived in Beijing, and it was four o'clock when they were delayed outside the airport, so that it would be six o'clock when the bus arrived at the Kunlun Hotel in Beijing, which had been set up by the Z Fund.

The reason for living in Beijing Kunlun Hotel, Z Fund also has unique considerations, Beijing Kunlun Hotel is the first five-star hotel in Beijing designed by the Chinese themselves, built by themselves, this choice is the result of the Z Fund and the champion's discussion, they all have a purpose, that is, try to put the strongest Chinese brand on Chamberlain's body.

Dinner is naturally Beijing Quanjude, which is almost the closest part of Beijing's food culture to foreign countries.

Chamberlain's influence is growing day by day, and this time, with the help of Iverson, Billups, Big Ben and others, his return to China has even been broadcast on CCTV's news network. Moreover, the news broadcast gave him a full two and a half minutes, in addition to introducing Chamberlain's identity, but also gave him a wonderful shot in the NBA, in addition to other stars who accompanied him to China are also on the list, but this introduction is simple, that is, the name and team, only Iverson is special, and he also commented on his career.

This time Chamberlain's return to China has a big impact, the Internet is full of news about him and his teammates, Iverson's arrival has given Chinese fans a boost, the tickets for the charity match held in Chengdu have long been sold out, 8,000 tickets for a stadium, because of the use of online ticketing mode, from the sale to the sell-out, it only took 20 minutes!

All ticket proceeds from this charity race were donated to the disaster area, so the ticket price was set quite high, and the cheapest peripheral ticket was also 150 yuan, but the demand still exceeded supply. In the hands of scalpers on the black market, the cheapest tickets start at 800, and as for the tickets for the VIP seats in the front row, they are even more priceless!
