180 champions
Chen Yi listened to the blind voice on the phone, touched his chin, and closed the phone.
Song Ming's contact information, he asked from Nie Jianfeng, Qin Sulan still has some contact with her, and knows her situation better.
It is said that she now works for the company of one of her half-brothers, in New York.
He came this time, in addition to wanting to see Bauer, he just wanted to find her and surprise her, but he went to her brother's company, but he didn't see her, saying that he was on vacation.
"Las Vegas?"
He thought for a moment, stood up, walked out of the room, and went to find Wang Yangjie, "Let Bauer arrange a female companion for me." ”
"You've missed a few times, too?" Wang Yangjie showed a surprised expression on his face, and said with a smile, "That's really happy." I thought you had always been unfavorable to women, but I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. ”
Chen Yi glanced at him and said, "Otherwise, I'll let Xiaoyue accompany me." As for you, I believe you still have a lot of old friends in the United States. ”
This time, Wang Yangjie couldn't laugh, his girlfriend was a vinegar jar, if it was overturned, then he would have to bear it. smiled dryly at the moment, "Well, find a female partner, no problem, I must ask Bauer to contact you with a supermodel, how about it?" Long legs. ”
"You arrange it." Chen Yi said with a lack of interest, taking a female companion to the banquet is to follow the local customs, and there are really few of these Yanmars that meet his aesthetics.
In the end, Bauer really arranged a supermodel for him, and also chose a Chinese very thoughtfully, and the height of his bare feet was a little taller than him. To be honest, a pair of long legs is okay, and the appearance can only be said to be average.
On the day of the draft, the whole scene was like a big festival.
He can only be regarded as a pseudo-fan of basketball, and even in the years when he followed the NBA, he didn't care much about this draft. Almost all of the knowledge about this draft was obtained from a few basketball books.
It was also after arriving at the scene that I felt this atmosphere, and I had a real experience that this draft had a very high degree of attention in the United States, and a large group of reporters came to set up long guns and short cannons.
Bauer's energy is indeed not to be underestimated, Chen Yi and them are all sitting in a relatively high position.
Both of them are more leisurely, for them, Wang Yuanshan won the champion in the end, of course, it doesn't matter if he can't get it, he won't fall out of the top three anyway. As for the others, they have nothing to do with them, so naturally they don't care too much.
…………
"Xiao Ming, let me introduce you, this is Charlie, one of my students at Harvard, what a coincidence, he also came to the casino with his friends to play. You're about the same age, so you should be able to talk. He Lixin pulled Song Ming and introduced her.
"Hello." Song Ming greeted politely.
Charlie is a Chinese, and he is tall and handsome, and when he saw Song Ming, his eyes lit up, "Senior sister, you can tell me before that you have such a beautiful sister." ”
"She's my ex-husband's sister."
"It's the same, you can see that your relationship is very good." Charlie said, proposing, "Senior sister, we haven't seen each other for so long, in order to thank you for taking care of me in college, I will invite you to dinner." ”
He Lixin said, "You still have a little conscience." ”
"Sister Xin, I won't go, you can go." Song Ming excused himself.
"I can't rest assured that you're alone." He Lixin pulled her and said, "Let's go, what's the matter with being bored in the hotel all day." You have to go out and make more friends to be in a better mood. ”
"Okay, I'll go." Song Ming reluctantly agreed.
Charlie took them to a fancy restaurant, sat down by the window, and looked out to see a huge advertising screen in front of a square.
Song Ming sat near the window, holding her chin with one hand, and gently touching the phone screen with the other, clicking on the screen from time to time to take a look.
"I'll go to the bathroom." He Lixin stood up and left.
Charlie's eyes fell on Song Ming's body, and he suddenly asked, "Are you waiting for someone's call?" ”
"Huh?"
Song Ming's hand holding the mobile phone retracted as if it was burned.
"Boyfriend?" Charlie asked tentatively.
Song Ming shook her head and asked instead of answering, "Are you really here to play with your friends?" ”
"yes, I've already called him, I'll be coming soon." Charlie said, not without ostentation, "My friend, a singer, is here for tomorrow's concert." ”
"Oh." Song Ming answered, turned her head out the window, and had no intention of continuing to chat.
Charlie touched his nose, somewhat embarrassed, and didn't take the initiative to talk again.
After a while, He Lixin came back from the bathroom, saw their silent atmosphere, and asked, "Have you ordered?" ”
"I'll be waiting for you." Charlie said.
Song Ming looked out the window at the huge screen in the opposite building, on which advertisements were playing. Suddenly, the picture jumped, and she saw the words written in the corner at a glance, the scene of the NBA draft. The heart is pounding.
"Hey, the draft has begun." Charlie, who was sitting on the other end, also saw it.
He Lixin remembered one thing, "I remember when you were in college, you were a member of the school basketball team. Do you still like basketball? ”
"My dream since I was a kid was to play in the NBA. It's a pity that the talent is not good, so I can only be an amateur. Charlie said self-deprecatingly, "You should also know that a Chinese player is also participating in the draft this year." ”
"Of course, recently, the name Wang Yuanshan, my ears are almost calloused." He Lixin said, "It is said that he is very likely to become the champion, is it true?" ”
Charlie said confidently, "Even if you are not the top winner, you will not fall out of the top three." If it weren't for the fact that he played so few NCAA games, the champion would have been his. ”
"Looks like it's about to start, let's see if you're right." He Lixin said.
Charlie smiled without saying a word, and glanced at Song Ming opposite, seeing that she had been paying attention to the big screen opposite. Suddenly, the expression on her face became extremely complicated.
"What did she see?"
He subconsciously turned his head to see that on the screen, the host was interviewing a celebrity in the VIP seat, and there was nothing special.
If I have to say anything special, there is a young Asian sitting behind the famous man.
A few seconds later, the camera turned away, but he was still wondering what Song Ming had seen before he could show such an expression.
Song Ming originally thought that she was strong enough, but at this time, she realized that she was actually very fragile, just by seeing him through the TV screen, and trying to harden her heart, it had become full of holes.
"First in line...... The Lakers' options are...... Come from...... of the King of Wonsan. Another champion of China was born......"
Vaguely, she heard such a voice, but it did not arouse any interest in her, and her right hand held the wrist of her left hand, where there was a strangulation mark that could never be erased.
After a while, Charlie's friend came, and sure enough, it was a well-known singer, and not long after he sat down, a fan came forward to ask for his autograph.
"Tomorrow's concert, you must come." When they parted, he invited.
"We'll definitely get there." He Lixin agreed.
…………
"I'm sorry, I'll go to the bathroom." After hearing that Wang Yuanshan became the second Chinese champion in the NBA, Chen Yi lost interest in the following content, sat for a while, and found an excuse to leave his seat.
He found a place where no one was, lit a cigarette, and thought about Song Ming.
Suddenly, he heard a quarrel between men and women, and ignored it until a cigarette was finished, and he heard that they not only did not finish arguing, but quarreled even more. Scratching his head, he stood up.
He didn't want to be nosy, but the place where they quarreled happened to be the passage back to the scene. He wasn't familiar with the place, and he didn't want to take a detour.
So, he lit another cigarette, and after smoking, the two had not finished arguing, and they were even more tugging.
He didn't want to wait any longer, so he got up and walked to the other side of the passage.
Both of them were startled when they saw someone appear, the man subconsciously let go of his hand, and the woman took the opportunity to break free and ran away.
The man was a little unwilling, glared at him hatefully, and left.
"It's inexplicable."
He shook his head, ignored the two unknown men and women, and returned to the venue.
The next draft, which is a bit boring for him, is to announce who is who, and which team will be selected. The only feeling is that there are so many rookies who want to play in the NBA.
Finally, the draft is over.
Chen Yi was about to leave, when suddenly, a woman in a red dress walked over and said a word, in which he could understand thanks and thank you. I immediately guessed that she was the woman who was entangled by a man on the other side of the passage just now.
"She said, thank you for helping her out just now." The supermodel next to him looked surprised, and after speaking, added, "How did you know her?" ”
He said, "You are elcome." Casually asked, "Is she famous?" ”
"She's Taylor."
He glanced at the woman in the red dress, felt a little familiar, remembered that it seemed to be a very famous female singer, and said, "Oh, it's that singer." ”
The female singer named Taylor said a lot of things, and the more the supermodel next to her listened, the more surprised the look on her face became, "She said that she should have invited you to a meal, but there is a concert in the casino tomorrow night, and she is going to appear." ”
"Las Vegas?"
Chen Yi's heart moved, and said, "You told her, it's just right, I'm going to the casino tomorrow, and if I have the chance, I will definitely go to see her performance." ”
Taylor looked happy and said a bunch of words.
"That's great, she said, and wanted to invite you to fly with her to Las Vegas tonight." The supermodel was a little incoherent at this.
"Thank you for her kindness, but I've already bought my ticket, and I'll see you again at Las Vegas when the time comes."
This time, the supermodel couldn't hold back any longer, "Are you really going to let go of the chance?" This is Taylor. ”
Chen Yi said, "You just have to tell the truth." ”
In the end, Taylor left with a look of regret.
PS: Actually, writing the plot of the city is more brain-consuming. I'll try to write a few more photos, see how the subscriptions are going, and then decide how to arrange the scenes between the two worlds.
