Chapter 168 Have You Heard of Wilt Chamberlain?

The Kardashian family is the "gossip center" in the North American entertainment industry. No other family is better at hyping and marketing themselves than they are.

Marketing hype is a matter of mixed reviews, but Fan Xi doesn't 'mockery' or 'belittle' them in the secular sense.

To a certain extent, Fanci's overnight fame is inseparable from the show "Keeping Up with the Kardashians".

In addition, Fanci and Kendall Jenner developed a romance like childhood sweethearts.

Therefore, Fan Xi could not find any reason to refuse to attend their party.

On the morning of the second day after arriving in Los Angeles, Fanci woke up from her sleep and turned on the TV while eating breakfast. Time Warner Entertainment broadcast there: Kim Kardashian and Humphries were officially divorced, and as early as three months ago,

The famous rapper and producer Kanye West, who was photographed dating Kim Kardashian a few months ago, officially announced that he is dating Kim Kardashian.

This news caused some waves in the entertainment industry. For the Chinese, there is no reason for a phenomenal rapper and billionaire to speculate with a divorced socialite. This woman has even been exposed in a famous videotape incident.

But in American society, this kind of chaotic private life is accepted. Many people are even blessing Kanye West and Kim Kardashian.

Of course, this also includes Fan Xi.

As early as before Thanksgiving last year, Fanshi knew about this. Kanye West and Kim Kardashian fell in love at first sight, and Kim Kardashian obviously didn’t want to overdraw her future in a place where she couldn’t even sit securely in the NBA.

The main blue-collar forward.

Although poor Humphries spent five million to buy a diamond ring to propose, he still failed to win the favor of Kim Kardashian. The most important thing is that after Kim Kardashian returned the ring to him, the value of the diamond ring was greatly reduced.

, the jeweler is not even willing to repurchase it at a 20% discount.

This taught NBA players a vivid lesson.

Diamonds do not retain their value, any more than love.

If you want to show off your wealth, you still have to get some hard currency. Isn’t gold delicious?

However, for these black players who have a lot of money, it is difficult for them to avoid spending money and have a sense of financial management. They are like dragons in fairy tales, they like shiny things. Just tell them to shine.

The glass ball is worth 1 million US dollars, and they will also pay for it with a check.

The Lakers have many such players.

There are so few NBA players with business acumen like Kobe, Magic Johnson, and LeBron James. So much so that the league holds a rookie training class in New York after the draft every year, not to train their skills, but to teach them how to deal with frequent

High society party etiquette, how to deal with the media, and most importantly...teach them how to manage money and not spend too much money.

As an undrafted player, Fan Xi has not taken this course.

However, his business empire has begun to take shape.

As long as he can maintain his current energy on the court and maintain his popularity off the court, he can earn many, many years. Even if he retires, he can still maintain a high income.

Therefore, this is also the reason why Ma Chen supports Fan Xi to attend the party at Kardashian's house.

"The situation of the Lakers is indeed very bad recently, but boss, you can't be blamed for any of this. If you play well, it's a bonus. If you play poorly, it doesn't matter. No one will blame a rookie player for a failure.

On top of that, not to mention you are already the only bright spot in the game."

Ma Chen always comforts Fan Xi like this.

What he said is true.

Lakers fans now just feel that they are unlucky. It would have been great if Kobe had not been injured. The entire Los Angeles is filled with this regret.

Fan Xi was very annoyed. He hated that well-known basketball media such as ESPN looked down at Los Angeles with a gloating attitude. He was even more disgusted that they had clearly praised the Lakers before, but now they turned their heads and praised James for how great they were. Even ESPN was giving LeBron James last year.

To clear up the case, they claimed James made a wise, strategic decision.

ESPN and other media have always been keen to praise LeBron James and disparage Kobe Bryant.

Here in the United States, James is more popular than Kobe Bryant.

After all, he was born as the golden boy of basketball.

"The more they act like this, the more I want to kill them."

Fanci was sitting on a wicker chair in the back garden of the Kardashian estate. Lying next to him was Kim Kardashian's current fiancé Kanye West.

This is the second time Fanci met Kanye West. Their first meeting was relatively hasty and they didn't stop to chat seriously at all.

Today, Fan Xi finished training and came here in the evening.

Kanye West holds a pivotal position in the rap circle, and he has a keen sense of fashion.

He and Fan Xi discussed the matter of co-branding with fanx-one. Of course Fan Xi readily agreed. He accepted the artist co-branding his sneakers. This would not make his business difficult, but would broaden his horizons.

Vision.

Kanye West is a man of action, he quickly came up with his own plans, and he has had some successful cases.

This touched Fan Xi very much.

Of course, what made Fanci and Kanye West quickly become friends was that Kanye West once lived in China. His parents once went to China to teach and were university professors, and Kanye was in fifth grade there.

Kanye West tried to remember and could still recall one or two sentences in Chinese, but he emphasized that he used to speak it very well. It’s just that he hasn’t used it for so many years: Language is not like a bicycle. You learn to ride a bicycle when you are a child, even if it takes a long time.

You don't ride it, but when your feet leave the ground one day, you can still control it quickly.

Fan Xi tried to speak some Chinese to him, and he said he felt strange and familiar at the same time.

Then, he talked about some of his experiences as a child. He was so honest. He talked about happy things and unhappy things.

However, Fan Xi told him: "At that time, the reason why people were curious about you and everyone stared at you was because we had never seen foreigners. We would not discriminate against anyone based on their skin color, because our

There is no such thing in culture, all our books teach us to love everyone."

Kanye West and Fanci chatted from around seven o'clock until nine-thirty.

The two of them were chatting about random things.

Until Kim Kardashian came over and urged Kanye West to entertain the guests.

Kanye West is one of the organizers of the party, and he is the legitimate host tonight.

Kim Kardashian hopes to use his connections to promote herself more efficiently.

"Jack, Kendall is really a nice girl. If I were you, I would choose Kendall over Scarlett or Taylor. Even Selena can't compare to Kendall."

Before leaving, Kanye West said to Fan Xi seriously: "I am looking forward to taking the relationship with you further. In China, we can be regarded as relatives, if you and Kendall are together."

Fan Xi smiled.

A long time has passed, at least Kanye West still remembers this.



Fan Xi stood up. The garden in front of her was already decorated with lights and was very lively.

Fan Xi didn't like the lively atmosphere, so he sat here quietly drinking milk.

What's interesting is that no one from outside came in, and Fan Xi remained quiet enough amidst the bustle.

Suddenly...crash!

In the swimming pool in front of me, a figure emerged from the bottom of the water.

Fan Xi was suddenly startled, and when she took a closer look, she saw that it was Kendall.

Jenna emerged from the water with a rose in her mouth. She waved to Fan Xi and motioned Fan Xi to come in.

Fan Xi almost didn't hesitate and jumped down.

Swimming to Jenna's side, Jenna gently hugged Fan Xi. She wanted to give Fan Xi the rose in her mouth.

But Fan Xi caught it with his hand, and to Jenna's surprise, he kissed her directly.

Click!

Click!

Click!

As soon as Fan Xi got into the rhythm, she noticed that the spotlights around her were flashing, and it turned out that a photographer had been arranged.

Originally they just wanted to take a picture of the two of them biting roses, but Fan Xi was so generous as to buy one get one free.

Fan Xi opened his eyes and saw the women of the Kardashian family standing by the swimming pool and applauding.

Fan Xi was very shy, and his whole body felt numb with embarrassment.

At this time, Kendall hugged his neck and kissed him.

At this time, even though Fan Xi was deep in the swimming pool, his whole body was feeling hot. He had never been in front of so many cameras... and his blood was boiling.

The whole mood was high.

It was a long kiss. When Fan Xi opened her eyes, there was no one around.

The women of the Kardashian family dispersed in a hurry.

They are so good at it.

"Jack, your clothes are wet. Let me take you to my room to change."

Kendall held Vansh's hand and walked upstairs.

Fan Xi was a little worried: "Is there someone in your room who suddenly jumped out and took random pictures with a camera?"

Jenna smiled and said shyly: "Do you still want to do bad things to me in the room?"

Fan Xi looked serious: "What bad thing? Have I done anything bad?"

Jenna punched him in the chest with her small fist.

The two walked into the room.

Jenna said that she wanted to take a hot bath first, while Fan Xi looked around in this room with a faint fragrance. He was looking for any cameras, cameras, or a woman from the Kardashian family hiding there.

could not find it.

At this time, Jenna asked Fan Xi to pass something to her.

Fan Xi's inexplicable passion surged to the top again. Damn it, he had seen a similar plot when he was in middle school.

His deskmate secretly played it to him in mp4.

Fan Xi walked into the bathroom...brain waves suddenly shot out of his mind, buzzing and stimulating.



"Are you sure Jack won't get angry if we sit here and listen?"

Lamar Odom pressed his ear to the wall in the next room, and standing next to him was Kanye West.

Although Kanye West is a rap artist, his laugh is quite abstract. "When I was in China, I heard that there are many people outside the newlyweds listening. It is for young people to check."

"Oh." Odom suddenly realized. "It turns out to be traditional culture, and it should be inherited and carried forward."

The two of them pressed against the wall.

They were still laughing at first, but after half an hour, they became a little restless. After an hour, they all said they might as well go for a drink, it was too boring.

The two brothers-in-law reached a tacit understanding.



Fanci went from the Kardashian estate to the Los Angeles training facility the next night, with Lamar Odom driving the car.

Odom's eyes were a little swollen. He obviously didn't get enough rest. On the contrary, Fan Xi was very energetic and full of endurance.

Odom was surprised and asked Fan Xi: "You were not tired last night? Where was Jenna?"

Fan Xi said: "She can't get up and is still sleeping in. Don't you usually get up at noon every time? Why did you get up at eight o'clock today?"

"I...I...I focus on training. I told Kohler that I must win the championship this year."

After Lamar Odom hesitated, he said righteously: "Men want to make achievements outside and do impossible things. Now the whole world says that James can win the championship, but I don't believe it. Jack, let's unite

Isn’t it possible that I can’t defeat James even if I start with him?”

Odom slapped his chest loudly.

Fan Xi chuckled and did not criticize Odom.

After stretching, he said to Odom: "But you are right, we are getting closer and closer to winning the championship."

Um?

Lamar Odom was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyebrows. He seemed a little excited. Fan Xi has always been a very stable person in his heart. When he reveals some information, it must be trustworthy.

"So, you discovered another flaw in the Miami Heat? Tell me, how do you plan to kill them in the next game." Lamar Odom asked: "I want to be the first to know."

Fan Xi shook his head and said with a smile: "The whole world knows that the Heat's shortcoming is the inside line, but so what? It's not important."

"So what's important?" Lamar Odom asked.

Fanci said: "The important thing is that I will stay on the court and stay on the court. I feel like I can play 35 minutes in the next game."

Fan Xi actually said very conservatively.

Can you play 35 minutes?

Odom was shocked. He couldn't believe it: "Jack, don't take stimulants. They have serious side effects on the body. And will they kill you in 35 minutes?"

Fanci knew that Odom was concerned about him, but it was difficult for him to explain. He said that he would never do doping, but he would use his strong willpower to stay on the court as long as possible.

As long as you play long enough and the team members work well together, why worry about not being able to defeat Miami?

"That's true." Odom nodded.

The car continued to drive forward, and when it got off the highway, both Fan Xi and Lamar Odom saw an angry scene.

Originally, there was supposed to be a huge billboard for Kobe Bryant at the highway intersection, but I don’t know when it was replaced by a Nike promotion for LeBron James.

This is an intrusion.

This is unscrupulous.

This is a sure win for the Heat.

Fan Xi took a deep breath and buried all this resentment in his heart.

The car drove forward silently.

When he was approaching the training hall, Fanci couldn't hold it back. He asked Lamar Odom: "Have you heard of Wilt Chamberlain?"
