Chapter 466 [Documentary of the Hungry Wolf Couple]

In addition to high income, NBA players also have long holidays. If the team's record is not good, they can arrange their lives freely from mid-April to early September. In this way, many NBA players are dissatisfied with their salary and made it to the suspension of the league last year. These greedy players don't know that there are many people in this world who work from year to year, from nine to five, and fight to the death, and they can only live by living a life of 40 years. They have to work on radio interviews and show that they are very happy.

With long holidays, some NBA stars will choose to find a part-time job that is fun, profitable, and can also increase their popularity. Radio stations also like to invite them to do shows during the offseason, such as the "Big Shark" O'Neal back then.

In the year he joined the Cavaliers, O'Neal collaborated with ABC TV to launch a reality show series called "Shake Comes to Challenge".

At that time, O'Neal chose many sports stars to compete with them in their respective fields, including swimming with Phelps, playing tennis with Serena Williams, and a boxing match with Dela Hoya, challenging the quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steels team Ross Risberg, women's sand volleyball Olympic champions Trieno and Valish, and Wwe Free Wrestling champion White. The show has high ratings, of course, all ended with O'Neal's failure in the challenge.

However, everyone understands that the original intention of this show was not to let people see how versatile O'Neal was, and to see how the NBA's most talented entertainment stars perform. The "Big Shark" did not disappoint the audience. When he fell with White, he actually knocked his opponent off the stage; in the duel with the women's sand volleyball Olympic champion, O'Neal even made a harsh statement before the game, "If you lose, wear pink swimming shorts and walk ten miles on the street"...

Not all NBA stars can do creative part-time jobs like O'Neal. More people still choose to work conservatively with sponsors and come to the Far East, especially in China to do odd jobs for a few days.

Of course, some people will come to the door to invite NBA stars to do shows and make movies. The famous female director Kim Snyder took a fancy to Ye Feng and his wife and came to visit.

King Snyder is an award-winning documentary director. As one of the founders of the Because Foundation, she has produced a series of socially conscious documentaries that inspire charity through the power of films. The first three films in the Because Foundation's film series, "Lonely Without Love", "The Next Bridge", and "Flipping Midnight", have won numerous awards and have spawned a series of movements in the United States that have greatly promoted the work of the social reformers that the film focuses on. King was also selected for the 2009 "American Documentary Show" project of the U.S. State Department, and was selected as a civilian ambassador to conduct film exchange projects in designated countries.

She now wants to shoot a star documentary between Ye Feng and his wife. It doesn’t take long to shoot some details, plus a lot of editing and post-production, and it is a movie between reality shows and documentaries.

There are many reality TV shows in the United States. The ratings are high. King Snyder is not the first director to come to the door. Ye Feng wanted to politely decline and said, "Kin, you know I am a playful actor. I want to take a break this holiday, but reality TV shows may not be suitable for us."

King Snyder said sincerely: "You don't need to perform deliberately, just perform in your true colors. You have led the Clippers to achieve extraordinary achievements. Many people want to know how you got to this point. Don't you want to make a documentary to commemorate the past?"

Alile asked, "What is the specific content of this movie?"

King Snyder smiled and said, "The script includes some classic love movie remakes. You are the protagonists, and then there are many street shots of your life, details, and friends' comments on you. I want to use this video to tell people that there is true love in the world of celebrities."

Ye Feng was also a little interested and asked, "Can we read the script?"

Kim Snyder said seriously: "Of course. Many people envy your marriage. After watching the movie "Wishing Pool Affair", I hope you can make more romantic movies, but you don't have time. Now I want to show people something more real. After reading the script, you will be satisfied."

The two read the script and it was really interesting. There were real life, funny remakes of movies, and they would also invite Hollywood stars and NBA stars to make guest appearances. They would use a special perspective to tell the acquaintance between Ye Feng and Alice, their relationship on and off the court. They broke the NBA convention and came together, and finally created the story of the Clippers Dynasty. The highlight theme is that sports stars are not all bad people in life, but also have particularly loving and enviable couples.

This film is also beneficial to the NBA League image. Of course, there will be some negative examples to compare with them, that is, the crew’s post-production editing.

The divorce rate is very high in the United States, and the NBA is even higher. Because of this, it has inspired the director.

Tonya Young Williams was once the wife of an NBA star. She told reporters at the beginning of the year: "Marriage to a basketball superstar means enduring surveillance, lies and infidelity. Therefore, the news that Vanessa decided to divorce Lakers defender Kobe Bryant is not surprising to them, women who are well versed in the story."

Tonya stayed on the sidelines for most of her adult life, and later became her husband's NBA star Jason Williams cheered and watched him shine in front of the national audience. The two who met for the first time were both freshmen at St. John's University, and since then they fell into a fairy tale love together. Jason has all the advantages that Tonya expected: her handsome appearance like a movie star, quick thinking, and elegant temperament. Unfortunately, with the huge wealth, prominent reputation and rich life swept over, her husband's advantages were simply unable to ensure that the couple could be as happy as before.

After years of domestic violence, verdicts for fighting and endless accusations of drunk driving, Tonya filed for divorce in 2009. She said: "Every woman walking on the red carpet of the wedding thinks that her marriage can last forever. If she marry an excellent husband, her life will be as happy as a dream. But you will always be caught off guard when everything changes after marriage, including the changes of her husband. After her husband becomes famous, everyone around her says he is amazing and perfect. As a wife, you have to praise him obediently. It won't take long for the conflict to break out."

The famous Los Angeles star wife Vanessa seemed to have endured it for a full ten years before the conflict broke out. Although Kobe gave Vanessa a shiny purple diamond ring weighing 4 carats as a gift for her disgrace and facing a trial, the superstar's cheating behavior never stopped.

The wife of an NBA star said: "Bryant was very scared after the Colorado case, so he calmed down for a while. But everyone knew that he was still carrying Vanessa on his back. Vanessa knew it very well, just pretending not to know. The reason is very simple. The ex-wife cannot accompany her husband on the sidelines. This is not just a matter of money, but as a player's wife, you can get huge attention and benefits from the court."

Whether it is an ordinary player or a superstar, as long as you become their wife or girlfriend, you can get more than just high-priced seat tickets on the side of the court. As the wife of an NBA player said, "This means you can try out the jealous Koroai handbag and Christie Rubto shoes, and you can often get the opportunity to show your face in weekly tabloids. In this way, what else can you ask for?"

20 years ago, no one paid attention to the wife and girlfriend of NBA players. No one cared about who the player married or who they were dating. But now, as long as a woman dated an NBA player once or twice, she immediately became a star. This world is so magical.

In this era, reality shows that take the unfortunate lives of wives of basketball, baseball and football stars as content seem to never satisfy the appetite of spectators, and many stars even sue their ex-wife for this. The divorce of Bryant couple only adds a touch of seductive light. After getting used to watching the darkness of players' marriages, the directors also want to shoot some positive things, and Ye Feng and Alier are the best choices.

Alile was bored at home for a long time and wanted to go out for fun. It was a good choice to shoot a documentary. She asked, "Dear, why don't we go and shoot it? It looks good."

"Everything is yours." Ye Feng agreed. He didn't want to stay at home all the time during such a long vacation. Taking advantage of Alice's health, it would be nice to go and have fun. The two of them are still very interested in making movies.

The next day, the two went to the crew to meet the screenwriter and staff, and learned in detail about the shooting process and script. Seeing that there was nothing that made them disgusted, they signed a contract.

It's easy to shoot. This is not a very particular 3D movie. Even the script is casual and can be completed in about 20 days. The rest depends on post-production editing. Ye Feng takes time to practice shooting and dribbling every day and keeps the plan of keeping the ball, but just put it after finishing work.

This is a documentary film belonging to them. Many friends, teammates, and Hollywood stars will give them comments, interspersed with some small clips of life, recalling the process from acquaintance to marriage, not only the audience wants to watch, but Ye Feng and Alier also want to keep it as a souvenir. There are many videos on the Internet, street photos when they first met, later holding hands, public flirting, and videos of the two working on a couple challenge show at Disney that year were found. After getting along for many years, they are already old couples, and they are no longer as passionate as before. After watching these, they also regained some of their former feelings.

This is a fun, novel idea, and Americans love novelty.
