Chapter 602 [Crazy chasing stars, working together again]
Yang Jian knows that it will be difficult for him to win the regular season MVP again. If he wins 4 times in a row, the league will recognize him as one of the top three players in NBA history, and even Magic Johnson will be ranked behind him.
Yang Jian's data completely beat Johnson's at the peak. Johnson only had 3 regular season MVPs, and he never won three in a row.
News analyzed that O'Neal might win the mvp, but Yang Jian was not angry. His goal was clearer. In addition to the three data kings, the honors he could compete for this season were the championship and FMVP.
He doesn't plan to compete for the All-Star MVP. Scoring high points for local stars will be an opportunity to show his goodwill to the league.
In the regular season, Yang Jian has no pressure. He can play and play. When playing against weak teams, he can be more happy on the defensive end. This is what he does. He has consecutive double-doubles and can help his teammates to double-check the ball carrier when he is playing.
, waiting for an opportunity to steal.
The SuperSonics soon won eight consecutive games, beating the Nuggets 123-93 in an away game on the 15th.
The Nuggets have suffered multiple defeats this season, averaging 100 points per game, and their defense is a mess. The Nuggets management is already preparing to trade Van Horn, the second overall pick in 1997, because his defense is so bad. Van Horn is a typical neither three nor four.
A player who plays small forward is slow to move and plays power forward poorly in confrontation.
He averaged 19.2 points per game and seemed very good, but in fact he shot only 43.5% from the field and could only score. He averaged less than 2 assists per game in three seasons.
The Nuggets' record is outside the playoffs. They made the mistake of the 76ers that year. They had too many offensive players and they didn't like to defend. Van Exel's career peak data evaluation is not as good as when he signed with the Lakers.
Big contract big man Antonio McDyess also looks like a data brush.
The Sonics flew to Los Angeles that night, and the players got a day's rest before playing an away game against the Lakers on the 17th.
Yang Jian did not need the team to book a hotel room for him during the game in Los Angeles and went home to live directly. The coaching staff agreed with him to do this as long as he was not late for games or catching flights.
Yang Jian was even busier than usual during the holidays, and she had agreed to visit two production crews.
The filming of "Charlie's Angels" started at the beginning of the month, and the director is a new person, the original Joseph McGinty-Nitcher. Yang Jian didn't have time to watch the filming, so she didn't make suggestions when choosing a director. This was the safest way.
He would visit the cast of Charlie's Angels during the day and the crew of "Friends" at night. Naomi Watts' "Mulholland Drive" has been filmed, otherwise Yang Jian would have to go shopping on Mulholland Drive.
In the early morning of the 16th, as soon as Yang Jian got up, Leonardo DiCaprio came to visit.
Yesterday, they talked on the phone. Leonardo said that he would go with him to visit the set and hang out for fun. Of course Yang Jian had no objection. Leonardo has become very leisurely recently, and Rachel Nichols went to Manhattan, New York.
Went to university.
Yang Jian thinks this is a tragedy, because when Rachel comes back to Los Angeles, she will find that Leonardo has Gisele Bundchen next to her. Or maybe she saw the news in college and knew that her superstar boyfriend was robbed.
.
While having breakfast, Yang Jian received another call from Eminem, who also wanted to visit. Yang Jian said that she was free, and Eminem drove up soon after.
"The noble man is busy" refers to people like Yang Jian. As soon as he arrived in Los Angeles, many people wanted to invite him to dinner and chat.
Eminem had serious business with Yang Jian, and he said straight to the point that he wanted to collaborate on a song with him. The last time the single they collaborated on topped the Billboard charts, Eminem was overjoyed, and of course he wanted to do it again.
Eminem could become famous if he released an album on his own, but he would never be as popular as he is now. Nowadays, when fans talk about the "Fast and Furious" movie, they will think of him.
The Grammys have already sent out invitations, and the two will sing at this year's awards ceremony, and they will sing two songs in a row, among which "intheend" is a duet between Yang Jian and Eminem.
Yang Jian smiled and asked: "What song? If the quality is not good, I won't sing it."
"I think this song will definitely be a hit. It's a three-person chorus. The chorus is "Thank You" by British female singer Dido. The two of us finished the chorus, and I've even thought of the story of the music video."
"The one who released an album last year?" Yang Jian said, humming two lines of the chorus of "thank you".
"Yes, it's that blonde beauty. She is your fan. If you are willing to cooperate, I think she can fly to..." Eminem suddenly made a big turn. "Fly to... her grandmother's house in London.
Go celebrate.”
There was murderous intent! Yang Jian turned around and saw Naomi staring at Eminem with sharp eyes.
"Hey, why are you so serious? We are just singing together." Yang Jian shook Naomi's hand.
"What a coincidence, because you and Britney also sang together, and she is also a fan of yours and a blonde beauty." Naomi raised her head and blew her bangs.
"I'm sorry, I'm definitely not looking for Dido as you thought." Eminem apologized loudly, and then whispered to Leonardo sitting next to him: "What should I do? I think she will push me into the well and cover it again.
A big rock. In the future, when people see me on TV, I will be able to climb out of the TV."
Naomi Khan said: "I can hear it."
Leonardo covered his mouth and hehehehehehehehe.
Yang Jian asked: "You chose the chorus well. What's the name of the song? Do you have any lyrics? What should I sing?"
"The song is called "stan", and it tells the story of a fan named Stanley who was crazy about being a star, and died after writing three letters to his idol without getting a reply. I am still thinking about the lyrics, and I have come up with two versions of the song. One
The one where Dido sang the chorus, I sang three letters from fans, and you sang a letter from the star. The other one was when I did all the rap parts and you sang the male chorus."
"It sounds cool and meaningful, so let's sing together." Yang Jian said with a smile. He knew it was this song as soon as he heard Dido's name.
"It's nice, thank you."
"Don't be so polite. Of course I am willing to cooperate with you. I believe this song must be of high quality and will shock the world. The story alone is already very attractive to me."
"Haha, I knew you would like it."
"Send me a copy of the lyrics you've written in your mailbox, and we can discuss them together."
"Okay, that's what I meant." Eminem was very happy and firmly believed that he would have another super masterpiece.
Yang Jian's appeal is much stronger than him. Only his duet with Dido could not attract many fans immediately.
Yang Jian knew that this was a win-win situation and was equally interested in releasing the song in advance.
In a parallel world, "stan" was released on December 9, 2000. It topped the charts in eleven countries including the United Kingdom, Australia, and Finland. It was ranked among the "500 Greatest Songs in History" by Rolling Stone magazine.
” ranked 290th.
The meaning of this song is to warn fans and let them distinguish between fiction and reality in the song.
In 2017, the word "stan" was included in the Oxford English Dictionary as a noun and a verb. As a noun, "stan" specifically refers to a crazy fan of an artist; as a verb, "stan" specifically refers to becoming a crazy fan of an artist.
When this song was released, Eminem was not well-known in the United States. He only had one popular album, so "stan" did not become the number one single in the United States.
Asking Yang Jian to sing a duet is different. Yang Jian rapping or singing choruses are both very good gimmicks. The number of Yang Jian's fans is terrifying. Whatever he sings this year may become the number one single.
Of course, Yang Jian would not miss this opportunity to show off. On February 21, 2001, Eminem and Elton John performed "stan" at the Grammy ceremony. Billboard rated it as the most shocking
of the top ten Grammy live performances, ranking second.
As long as Yang Jian sings this song, he will definitely be the one to sing with Eminem at the Grammy Awards next year. If he can perform at the Grammy Awards for two consecutive years, why doesn't he go?
Yang Jian can sing both versions, and the sense of immersion is very strong, because he now has many crazy fans.
Star-chasers are scary, especially some young people who simply have no brains and will get into trouble if they are not careful. Yang Jian has a valid reason not to get married in this life, because if he gets married, some of his female fans will definitely commit suicide.
This is not an exaggeration at all. In the future, fans in China will commit suicide, and they will still chase domestic stars who make bad movies.
Yang Jian doesn't even know how many fans he has now. He must have more fans than Kobe Bryant at his peak, probably 6.1 billion.
