Chapter 143: Limited Potential (Part 1)

Seeing Min Congda's question, Fan Chen thought about it seriously, and he thought that this was a test that MCD gave himself.

Fan Chen used to boast of his basketball skills, relying on his amazing memory and data processing ability, coupled with outstanding logical thinking and eloquence, he often killed the opponent in forum debates.

has won some fame among some veteran fans, and any basketball discussion topics will @ him, and every time he speaks back, he has his own light group, and he often applauds.

The mutual praise between these fans made Fan Chen quite useful, and slowly looked a little above the top, feeling that he was very authoritative and influential among the fans.

Until some time ago, this person called "Clippers General Manager MCD" said that he wanted to cooperate with him in translating articles and translating Chinese into English for publication on American social media.

Fan Chen was very interested in what kind of article this MCD could write, and after looking forward to it for a few days, he received a post-competition article.

Written about the Clippers and the Suns Christmas game, this game can be said to be lively and eye-catching, with various post-game analyses pouring in after the game.

Fan Chen surfed at high intensity and made a lot of comments and opinions about this competition.

The well-known big V Zhang Gongzi also wrote an article after the game, lamenting "the point guard inheritance between Stephen Curry and Nash", a blood-spilled article The readers who read it were full of blood and feelings, and felt that Nash had a successor.

However, after reading the post-game summary sent to him by MCD, Fan Chen understood what a real game report is.

The article is not written at length, but it is very detailed.

From the morale of the team before the game, the state, the readiness, the tactical arrangement.

Tactical changes, key nodes, and details in the game.

Then to the post-match player reactions, media interviews, and finally a summary.

Everything is written in an orderly manner, eloquently, and I feel immersive after reading it.

What surprised Fan Chen the most was the tactics and situation analysis of the Clippers and Suns.

The writing can be described as incisive, touching on the details that are difficult for many ordinary fans to get into.

Combined with the state of the players on the field and the change of the situation, it makes people feel suddenly enlightened.

"Oh, that's how it was at the time, it was arranged like this on both sides, and it turned out that something like this happened at that time, so it was ...... like that."

After reading the whole article, there is a feeling of comfort throughout the body.

Only then did Fan Chen understand that he had met a master, a real master.

He asked "Clippers General Manager MCD" if he could share this article on Goupu.com.

MCD said that as long as you help translate into English and send it to the blog on the website, the Chinese version can be handled as you like.

But don't reveal to others who wrote it.

So, Fan Chen first translated this article into English and posted it on an English blog.

Then, he used his Goupu account to publish this post-match commentary on the forum.

At the beginning of the article, he deliberately emphasized, "This article is written by a senior fan friend, but he does not want to reveal his identity for everyone to comment." ”

After the article was published, it was immediately refined, and a large number of netizens began to reply, saying "This is the ball review".

In order to improve readability, Fan Chen also deliberately added illustrations and data tables to the article to further improve the reading quality.

For a time, after the daily game of ID "Shengfan", it became a must-read for Goupu netizens.

After writing three games in a row, Fan Chen now asks every day if there is any post-game.

He found that the MCD Clippers game was particularly well written, and the description of the Clippers was vivid.

The depictions of other teams are similarly accurate, but not very full of detail.

Today's game between the Clippers and Lakers was a big one, and everyone was waiting for the post-game commentary.

Fan Chen hurriedly looked for Min Congda to ask for a post-game article.

In 2009, China's basketball consulting was not developed enough, and there was not much first-hand information.

Many articles can only be said to be professional, but more like a story meeting, mainly story-based and emotional.

The discussion of basketball skills and tactics itself is in a relatively shallow stage, after all, the editors are not industry insiders, and they are exposed to the information and news of the second and third hands, or even the fourth, fifth or sixth hands.

There is no first-hand information, and the things written are more or less joking, and it is enough for fans to have fun.

But who is Min Congda? The general manager of the Clippers, the front-line manager.

It's like a player going to a TV station to tell a game in person, which is very different from a regular basketball commentator.

Many of the NBA's commentators are retired players, and after the TV station activated them to participate in the commentary, it immediately found that it had a remarkable effect.

Their experience of the game is very intuitive, they can provide a lot of details that cannot be observed by onlookers, and their understanding of basketball is even more professional.

As soon as Min Congda's post-game comments came out, the articles that sprinkled dog blood and showed off their feelings on the Internet were discolored.

As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, you are afraid of comparing the goods.

Min Congda didn't think about it so much, and on the one hand, writing after the game was to sort out his own thoughts.

In the case that the rotten did not work, he felt the need to dig into the question of why this was happening.

On the other hand, of course, it is to deal with increasingly unfavorable public opinion.

His article is developing in the United States at the same time that the dog fluttering net is becoming popular.

There are too many professional football review articles in the United States, and how many people point to this line of food for dinner.

It is still very difficult to break through with only a few post-game articles.

Min Congda was not in a hurry, he knew that these things needed to be accumulated slowly.

When it accumulates to a certain amount, there will naturally be an outbreak.

When the Clippers and Grizzlies were trading some time ago, Min Congda asked Sheng Fan's registered Twitter account to send a message prediction in advance.

After the deal was concluded, the account immediately gained tens of thousands of followers, and the exchange rumors were forwarded in large numbers, which led to a wave of his basketball blog.

Min Congda wants to slowly build this Twitter account and blog account in the future to form a confrontation with the mainstream media.

Like ESPN, CBS, if you write an article praising the Clippers and saying that the Clippers are good, I will go against you and hedge!

Thinking of this, Min Congda stepped up to write this game, focusing on praising the Lakers and showing the strength of the Lakers.

An eloquent essay was completed overnight, Min Congda read it from beginning to end, and thought: "My writing and logic are still good, but I will not succeed in the future, write memoirs and autobiography, I guess I can sell some money to make a living, right?" ”

I didn't expect the system to remind: [It is forbidden to make money by writing NBA memoirs and autobiographies. 】

"Holy! Then I'll write it! ”

Eh, write, the system has no objections, then it will be written as a last resort.

Min Congda felt that there was no problem with writing, so he sent a message to Fan Chen: "My article has been written, have you thought about your questions?" Give me the answer, I'll give you the article. ”

Fan Chen replied: "After thinking about it, I think Stephen Curry's potential is relatively limited. ”
