911. New friend, Chris Paul(1/2)

"Ding... The mission of Dancing with Giants is completed, and the host receives a reward: Dwyane Wade 2003-2004 version of the star card."

Liu Mang was a little confused. He looked at the tasks marked as completed and then noticed that the task description was different from what he thought.

"Dancing with Giants: The host needs to win all the next games with the Heat and Rockets. Mission reward: Dwyane Wade 03-04 season star card, superstar value; failure penalty: Invite O'Neal to the All-Star Weekend

, dance with Yao Ming.”

According to this mission description, Liu Mang had previously ignored the invitation to the All-Star Weekend. Since the invitation is required during the All-Star Weekend, the games after the All-Star Weekend are not related to the mission. It is the last game before the All-Star Weekend.

When it's over, the task is completed immediately.

In fact, it was Liu Mang who went back to the locker room to call O'Neal and asked how he was doing and how he was doing during the All-Star Weekend. When he heard that O'Neal was fine, he confirmed it. At first, Liu Mang thought it was the fat man who had been reimbursed.

Yao Ming's side doesn't exist, and both games with the Rockets this season have been played.

Liu Mang was shocked at first. That would not be fun, and there would be no opponents in the east.

He has won the championship once and is so arrogant.

Winning the championship is of course great. Liu Mang really wants to win the championship again and win consecutive championships.

It’s not a problem to crush you into the finals, or even to win the championship, but if your opponent is injured along the way and relies on this to win the championship... you may not care about it when you win the first championship, but after you have a guaranteed championship, you will always win the championship.

You will feel a little regretful.

Liu Mang still wants to have a battle with healthy opponents, mainly the Heat. If he doesn't defeat the Heat, who are in their strongest form, how can he let the big-cheeked brothers feel despair?

However, there will be no dancing during the All-Star Weekend. Liu Mang was a little regretful. When he called O'Neal just now, Liu Mang casually asked O'Neal how to enjoy the All-Star Weekend. O'Neal said a lot, and Liu Mang remembered dancing.

He also asked Liu Mang to "lend" his teammates to him. Liu Mang thought for a while, the only ones who could dance in the square back then were Prince, Jason Terry, and Muhammad.

None of the three brothers made it to the All-Star Game, so they are just playing tricks.

It is impossible for him to jump, and Liu Mang will never jump.

Thinking about this year's All-Star Weekend, the head coach is not Coach Kruger. It will definitely not be fun to play in the game, but you have to have fun, otherwise going to Denver will be nothing but promotion, which will be too boring.

Rahim is also out of the All-Star this season. The All-Star substitutes this season, except for James and Milicic, two of the 2003 generation, the other 12 All-Star substitutes are all players from the top five teams in the East and West. 30

The head coaches of each team have very consistent criteria for selecting All-Star substitutes.

Who else knows how to square dance?

Liu Mang thought about it...yes.

Liu Mang dialed Yao Ming's phone. The game ended at 12 o'clock. It was almost 12:30, and it rang several times before he got through.

"Da Yao...yes, it's me, I Ace...well, I have something to ask you...do you like dancing? This year's All-Stars...eh? Hey, hey, hey..." Liu Mang hadn't finished speaking yet.

, the phone was hung up.

Others don't know that the Eagles' thing is square dancing. As a Chinese, Yao Ming still doesn't know?

When I heard Liu Mang say this, I thought that Liu Mang had tricked Barkley into dancing in the square with Stern and a group of middle-aged aunts. Yao Ming was sleeping soundly when he was woken up by a phone call and was still a little dizzy, so he suddenly woke up.

, directly hung up the phone, then turned off the phone and unplugged the battery. He didn't even bother with the trouble of recalibrating the time after the Nokia unplugged the battery for more than ten minutes.

No! Liu Mang will never let go of cheating Yao Ming... No, it's a feast for the two super centers from the East and the West to dance together. Liu Mang feels that he can't miss it!

Liu Mang kept thinking about it when he got home after taking a shower, and finally came up with a solution.

If you can't invite Yao Ming yourself, let O'Neal do it!

Let Prince, the "NBA court dance promoter", teach O'Neal first. O'Neal seems to have learned it himself and can teach it better. Let O'Neal invite Yao Ming.

As for Yao Ming, there is no need to teach at all. For a Chinese, square dancing is instinctive! It is something that is instilled in people...





"Grandpa and grandma, please be careful on the road. Dinah came back to China to visit her grandparents during the summer vacation."

"Okay, okay, Dinah, you have to pay attention in class and finish your homework on time. Aida, you have to take good care of yourself... Levia... Woolen..."

"..."

"..."

Before entering the security check, Liu Mang's mother and San Niu cared about each other for a long time. Liu Mang didn't say much, mainly because the old man didn't know what to say. Liu Mang and his father looked at each other for a while.

His father patted him on the shoulder. They were both men and didn't say anything.

Liu Mang's parents came to the United States for a few days. Liu Mang was busy. Levia, Alexia and Dinah took them to basically visit all the attractions in Atlanta. Liu Mang originally wanted to

It was easy for him to get long-term visas for his parents if he wanted them to stay longer. However, after the two elders came to the United States to experience the foreign moon, they still felt uncomfortable. They visited the attractions in Atlanta, which was an experience.

To get a sense of foreignness, I watched an NBA game live on the night of the 10th. On the 11th, Liu Mang took them to the mall to buy a bunch of things. They didn’t even go to the All-Star weekend and went back to China.

Liu Mang's mother still can't let go of her breakfast shop. She will open a business on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. Liu Mang's father should be going to work on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year. Even after playing for two more days, she can't let go of her work, so

I took a flight back on the 12th.

Mom and dad have their own lives, and Liu Mang can't force him to stay. Although San Niu has learned Chinese well in the past few years and has no problem communicating, their living habits are still very different.

At nine o'clock in the morning on the 12th, Liu Mang's family put his parents on the plane, and at eleven o'clock, the four of them also took a flight to Denver.

Liu Mang originally had a lot of activities during the All-Star Weekend. Like Tracy McGrady, he finished the game on the night of the 10th and went to Denver on the 11th. However, he turned down a lot of work. His parents came to the United States for the first time, and he was 11

I accompanied them to buy some things to take home. Since they are traveling abroad and they are the parents of such a big star, they must give a lot of gifts to their relatives and friends when they return home.

The two elders returned to China on the 12th. Liu Mang, San Niu and his bodyguard also packed their luggage. After seeing the two elders off, they took a plane to Denver and started business activities on the 13th.

The Eagles' holiday lasts for eight days, from the 11th to the 18th.

The 14th to the 16th are the three days of the All-Star Weekend. Liu Mang has not signed up for any other events this year, only the All-Star Game on the 16th.

He no longer needs to rely on eventing to increase his popularity. That little bit of exposure will not do much for him.

After arriving in Denver, he had a night's rest. From 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on the 13th, Liu Mang participated in 9 business activities in 12 hours, changing stops every half hour. He was as busy as a dog.

Schwartz was as tired as a dog following Liu Mang. There was nothing he could do. The period from the 11th to the 13th was supposed to be the best publicity period. Originally, Liu Mang had nearly 20 business activities to participate in.

We have pushed through more than half of this, and we have lost a lot of small money. Therefore, we cannot push the nine business activities that make the most money, let alone the money, and we cannot offend those big customers.

It's not just Liu Mang's problem, Liu Mang also represents their agency.

After a busy day, I didn’t even take two bites of food, so I ate two slices of bread in the car. I was in the car again and had to change clothes. I also had to remember what to do at the next event under the guidance of the PR company.

What can I say? I was so tired that I had to take a nap for about ten minutes. As soon as I squinted my eyes, I arrived at the next activity venue and had no time to eat.

The most important thing is that there is a one-hour sneaker signing. Liu Mang’s third-generation sneakers have been pre-sold in mid-January and have been officially released on January 25. An on-site signing was held during the All-Star Weekend.

During the sales meeting, Liu Mang signed an autograph every three seconds on average. He signed more than a thousand times and took two rounds of physical potions, which was more tiring than playing a game. He also took several shots while interspersed with various business activities.

Physical energy potion.

For the first time, Liu Mang felt the hardship of "running for notice".

Finally, after a full 12 hours without stopping, either doing commercial endorsements or on the way to the next commercial endorsement, the work was over. Liu Mang and the people in the company toasted to celebrate the successful completion of today's work. Liu Mang's cold

During the 15 days from the 25th to the 13th, the sales of the fourth generation of ice boots ranked first among all the signature shoes of all the stars in the league. I also had a drink to celebrate. After the celebration banquet, Liu Mang was finally liberated. At 12 midnight

When they returned to the suite that Schwartz had booked for their family at the Crawford Hotel in Denver, Liu Mang fell asleep directly on the sofa. It was San Niu who came to take off his shoes and coat and cover the cup.

Worried about waking up Liu Mang, they moved the two sofas together without moving Liu Mang into bed.

Mainly a skinny guy weighing close to 200 pounds, but still very heavy...





"Ah..." Liu Mang yawned again, looking at the five members of Generation 03 who were chatting happily in front of him, he ate the whole wheat bread and took a sip of skimmed milk.

It's not that I'm very tired. Yesterday's fatigue was mainly mental fatigue. My head was too tired. I started deep sleep at 12 o'clock, which is a sleep where I'm so tired that I don't have any dreams. It wasn't until 8 o'clock that I was woken up by Dinah. I have recovered.

Now, I am not tired physically. I took seven shots of physical potion yesterday.

Mainly because the five guys in front of me didn't know what they were doing last night, and Anthony's home was obviously in Denver and he was staying in a hotel. Anyway, Liu Mang felt that he was very pure. He didn't know what these five guys were doing. It was so early in the morning.

They were still chatting about things that they were not ashamed of, yawning while chatting, and Liu Mang also yawned.

"Ace, you must have been exhausted yesterday. I heard that you ran 9 activities yesterday, which was really impressive." James did not forget to chat with Liu Mang, so as not to neglect Liu Mang.

"Yes, I heard from Jeff that you were so tired that you fell asleep in the car yesterday. Boss Ace, it doesn't matter if you make less money. Your annual endorsement fee is almost 30 million." Wade also expressed concern.

.

Anthony, Bosh, and Milicic wanted to cry after hearing this. Milicic and Bosh, two insiders, couldn't sell sneakers, and the sneaker endorsement fee was extremely low. Anthony was okay, but he sold himself to Air-Jordan for US$2.2 million.

Compared to James, who is more popular, Wade is from Liu Mang's agency, and Liu Mang's relationship with Anthony, Bosh, and Milicic is average.

"My parents came to Atlanta for a visit a while ago, and I stayed at home for a while. That Dwyane, you think I want to make so many announcements? It's not because of you, or I'm worried about offending those sponsors and hurting you guys.

I won’t go if the kid can’t get endorsements.” Liu Mang rolled his eyes at Wade.

Wade thought for a while and it seemed like this, and smiled coquettishly, but...who is the brat? I'm half a year older than you, right?

"Uncle and aunt are here? Ace, why didn't you tell me? I should greet them!" James said with a dissatisfied look and helped Wade change the subject.

"Next time, if we have a chance to go to Shanghai together for our business activities in the summer, I will take you to my house for some breakfast." Liu Mang said with a smile.

"Okay, it's settled. By the way, Ace, I'm going to pick up a friend at the airport in a while. Can we go together?" James told him why he stayed in a hotel with Liu Mang.
