"Ace, the New York Times asked for an interview..."

"I'm not going! I'm too exhausted! I'm not going!" Liu Mang stuffed his head into the training uniform and refused to go.

Liu Mang scored 50 points in a single game and received a lot of attention. There were many rewards and other things, and the number of fans increased dramatically. The sensation this brought was no worse than winning the All-Star Game MVP in his rookie season.

.

But in terms of the media, this is more exciting for the media than the entertainment All-Star Weekend.

It seems that he has seen a super star rising! Just like the previous eight rookies who were able to score 50 points in their eight rookie seasons, Liu Mang became the darling of the media!

Unlike Iverson and Kobe, who also attracted much attention in their rookie years, these two have unruly personalities and have a bad relationship with the media.

Liu Mang has always had a good relationship with the media. He dares to speak up and is restrained and polite like an Oriental. He is well-liked by reporters who are mainly white. Anyway, no one is praised, and he has Liu Mang's physical quality.

It is closer to the ordinary fans. If you don’t praise the rising rookie, I’m afraid it’s Shi Lezhi.

Originally, various press interviews were supposed to come after Liu Mang returned to Atlanta.

Generally speaking, this is the case. After all, the Eagles will not be given too many interview opportunities during consecutive away games.

But the Hawks' next opponent is the Wizards!

As soon as the Eagles arrived in Washington, D.C., they received a large number of interview requests from well-known TV stations, sports magazines, weekly magazines, etc.

Some, such as Sports Illustrated and Time Magazine, had to participate. One of these two is the leader in the sports magazine industry, and the other is the leader in the entire news industry and the earliest news newspaper veterans in the history of the world.

These two people must accept it. There will be no good fruits to be gained by offending these two people.

Therefore, on the afternoon of March 3, Liu Mang accepted an interview with Sports Illustrated as soon as he arrived in Washington. In the evening, he was dressed up in suits and ties by team staff, recited many official answers, and was threatened and intimidated by Coach Kruger.

Answer according to the arranged answers, because Time Magazine has given all the questions to the Eagles...

Actually, Liu Mang is not that repellent when being interviewed. Who doesn’t want to be famous? Maybe he doesn’t care too much, but there’s nothing wrong with being famous. If you can’t be famous, it’s good to make money.

But this kind of interview is really tiring!

The next morning, he accepted an exclusive interview with ESPN, with whom he had a fairly good relationship. There was a press conference at noon, and Liu Mang couldn't stand it anymore.

What’s the New York Times this afternoon?

It’s not a lie! Come again!

Time Magazine is divided into many versions. Among them, the American version of Time Magazine and the New York Times are owned by a business group. The former is a professional interview and the latter is a periodical.

Time Magazine mainly reports on influential figures and events. Liu Mang has almost begun to follow that trend. Just like Dayao Yao who entered the NBA in his second year, he also caused a sensation in the United States. Of course Liu Mang

Mang came faster than Dayao and was more sensational.

The New York Times is a lot more miscellaneous and reports on everything. One issue of the magazine includes entertainment, sports, politics and even agricultural and sideline news. It has everything.

But even if the types are very different, they are still part of the same group! Damn, you can just make do with each other! There are two interviews!

Even if I kill you, I won’t go!

There will be a game against old Jordan in the evening. Guys, you should save your energy to watch God!

Compared with the previous two leading media, friendly partners, and daily press conferences, the New York Times is indeed not on the same level as the previous four. Justin Kyle, the press officer with the team, saw Liu Mang crying and stuffing his head into training

I can't bear to hear that he is just a rookie under 20 years old, not one of those veteran superstars who have been dealing with the media for many years.

One day you will get used to this kind of life. With your ability, you have to shoulder a lot of responsibility and attention. The road to superstardom requires a lot more than you imagine.

The interview with the New York Times was not that important. The Eagles management felt that Liu Mang had to push it and pushed it away. Anyway, the relationship between their rookie and the New Yorkers was not good to begin with.

Although both are two major magazines under the New York Television Group, the American version of Time and the New York Times have never dealt with it.

Time Magazine still prides itself on the pride of the original Time Magazine in London and the pride of the Empire on which the sun never sets. Even though the New York Television Group bought the ownership of Time Magazine in North America, this department is relatively independent and has always looked down upon the New York Times.

The New York Times also looks down upon Time Magazine, the leader that has begun to decline.

The New York Times will definitely not say too many good things about Liu Mang, and the interview is just to gain popularity.

As for Time Magazine, it has been unhappy with the New York Times for a long time. It has specifically opposed the New York Times. Most of the questions given in advance are beneficial to Liu Mang. It wants to disgust the New York Times and increase sales in Asia...

…

In the Wizards' away team locker room, everyone else went to be interviewed and greeted people they knew from the opponent's team. Only Liu Mang was left who wanted to hide from reporters before entering the game before the game started.

Why are there so many interviews here in Washington?

Isn’t it because this is the political center of American imperialism? Almost all the bigger TV stations, magazines, newspapers, and periodicals have reporters stationed here. Therefore, those reporters who can’t push the Eagles’ legs off the Eagles team just arrived.

Washington, so he made several interviews with Liu Mang.

Liu Mang had just finished stretching and lay down on the small bed to take a rest to relieve his exhausted brain power.

Interviews and stuff like that, without turning into a slut, are indeed a torturous thing, much more tiring than playing games!

"Bang bang bang, Ace..."

Another knock on the door and shouts came, and Liu Mang responded subconsciously: "I won't accept the interview! Justi, I won't accept the interview today even if I kill you!"

"Yo yo yo, Ace, it seems he's very popular recently!" the teasing voice continued.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Huh? It's a bit familiar, but he is not the team's press officer. Liu Mang sat up and looked at the door of the locker room.

"Depend on!"

Seeing the bohemian and domineering Qiao Shen, Liu Mang quickly got out of bed and stood up.

"Michael, why are you here?" Liu Mang asked in surprise.

"Thank you!" Jordan found a stool and sat down, took out a box with a cigar in it, bit it on his mouth, and then... just looked at Liu Mang like that.

"..." It took Liu Mang a long time to realize that this old guy wanted to smoke Big Brother cigarettes!

It’s so...Okay, I’ll smoke it for you, brother!

Liu Mang looked through the closet and found no lighter...

"Well, I don't smoke and I don't have a lighter..." Liu Mang said awkwardly.

"Uh..." Jordan was stunned for a moment. Sure enough, he was still a child and gave his lighter to Liu Mang.

Liu Mang smiled and lit the cigarette for Jordan.

It doesn't matter whether he is a respectable person or not, as long as he is a basketball player who entered the NBA after Jordan won his first three consecutive championships, he will be a level lower in front of the God of Basketball. He is a senior, the top senior in history.

Jordan enjoyed a Big Brother cigarette with great satisfaction. Although he was not as clever as other juniors, it felt good.

At least this rookie doesn't have so many incomprehensible ideas!

"It's good not to smoke! I can't even quit now." Jordan puffed out a few cigarette rings skillfully and sighed: "But Ace, you are so uninteresting. You can't go to interviews with so many reporters. Why don't you?"

Do you know that if you don’t go, those people will come after me to interview me?”

Liu Mang was stunned. It seems to be the case. The most popular basketball players in Washington now are him and Jordan. As the number one player in North American sports, Jordan will be the most popular player in North America and even the world in ten or twenty years.

Most valuable athlete.

"But you're so good, you actually managed to score 51 points. I didn't even get it back then. I wonder if that No. 8 kid who imitated me all day long would be pissed off." Jordan said, thinking of something and couldn't help but laugh.

Already.

"Unexpectedly, after I finished the game, I saw that I had scored more than 50 points." Liu Mang was still very modest in the first half of his sentence, but changed in the second half: "I didn't expect that I would be so strong. It might take another ten years.

, in twenty years, there is no guarantee that all of your records, Michael, will be surpassed by mine."
