Chapter 73 Buying a house and a car is the most simple dream of the Chinese
Kobe Bryant was very excited. For him, Fanshie was even happier to win the MVP of the rookie game than he was to win the MVP himself.
He even hugged Fan Xi in front of reporters after the game and said: "This is a gift from God. Jack has insights and skills that are rare in the world. I have never seen such an outstanding young man."
Man. I can assure you that he will definitely become a superstar in the future."
Kobe showed a side of himself that he had never shown before. He spared no effort to bring Fan Xi to the media, and he showed an intimate relationship.
It's hard to believe that many years ago, when he was a young player, he tried his best to force Shaquille O'Neal away.
Therefore, a provocative reporter asked him: "Kobe, Jack has become a superstar. Aren't you worried that he will replace you as the core of the Lakers team?"
This issue is very sensitive. Fan Xi was shocked when she heard this sentence.
Because Kobe Bryant's image in the media has always been that of a more 'selfish' person who values his own authority. Even Bynum, the future successor appointed by the Lakers, scolded him until he cried in the training camp.
Bynum was unprepared to publicly criticize him.
These were all said at the time that Kobe could not bear the new force taking his place.
However, what people didn't expect was that Kobe Bryant actually laughed. He said cheerfully: "I'm not worried about him replacing me as the core of the Lakers. The sooner he replaces me, the better. I hope he can quickly become a super player in his own right."
Superstar. When that day comes, I will hand over the scepter to his hands very happily and promptly."
As soon as Kobe said these words, the people around him were shocked.
It was unexpected by everyone.
This feels like the cruel and bloodthirsty Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly felt tender and affectionate. Facing his "rebellious" ministers, he suddenly said... Come on, let me help you mount your horse and give you a ride.
But, having said that, although Zhu Yuanzhang was cruel and murderous, he did take care of his prince Zhu Biao. If Zhu Biao wanted to rebel, he would definitely praise the prince for being really promising, and he would also be in need of people to give money to those who needed money.
Until Zhu Biao's rebellion succeeded.
Kobe's words not only shocked the reporters at the scene, but also made Andrew Bynum sit in front of the TV and watch the game with eyes wide open and teeth grinding.
He always believed that he was the future successor of the Lakers. In the past two seasons, he even complained to the management many times, thinking that Kobe had too much ball rights and should share some of it with him. And he also vowed: Where in the NBA?
Is there a seven-year-old successor?
But now, according to Kobe, he is no longer his successor. Kobe actually wants to hand over the scepter to Fan Xi?
Why? He has only played a few games? He is an undrafted player.
Bynum was very remorseful. He regretted why he acted on impulse and got injured on the plane, which gave Fanci the opportunity to become a big player. If he had stayed on the team, how could this guy have the fame and status he has today?
Just when Bynum was feeling regretful, a reporter from the Orange County Chronicle asked a provocative question: "Kobe, what about Andrew? You know that since 2005, Andrew has been training the Lakers as a future super center.
He has been equipped with the best training team in the league. In the past two seasons, his performance has become better and better, and his talent is also very amazing. Isn't there a way for him to take over your scepter?"
When this problem strikes.
Fan Xi pulled Kobe's sleeve.
He was about to speak to ease the problem.
Kobe Bryant said straightforwardly: "I am a defender, and I can only see the talent in defenders. Moreover, how can I pass my scepter to a center?"
Bryant's words were full of favoritism and gave the media ample room to play.
It also made Bynum in front of the TV even more angry.
He felt that Kobe Bryant was targeting him, jealous of him, afraid of him, and terrified that his rise would affect his status in the team, so he deliberately supported a small guard in order to control him.
He was extremely angry.
However, Fanci and Kobe Bryant on TV ended the interview.
They leave the camera frame.
Then, Fan Xi got into Kobe Bryant's car, and Kobe Bryant took Fan Xi to Fan Xi's home.
Along the way, Kobe was discussing technical issues with Fanci. Kobe was a player who was very particular about details. He found that Fanci had many redundant moves on the court and was not concise enough. "...Although your ball control ability is very strong and your breakthrough skills are not
Very enough. But the court changes rapidly, and you must become an extremely efficient and clean player in order to become a true superstar."
Everything Kobe said was wise.
He also carefully analyzed Fanxi's movements. For example, once in the fourth quarter, Fanxi changed three different rhythms when he broke through at the three-point line, and performed a back-turn pass at the free throw line. "Although it is very
It’s fancy, it can make the audience scream, but what’s the use?”
Speaking of this, Kobe Bryant also mentioned the name of a point guard, Jason Williams. He said that Jason Williams was a player who could make the Kings Ako ball by relying on fancy dribbling and fancy passing.
He was a player who sold out all the tickets in the stadium, but he never became an All-Star, and he was not even considered an elite player. Later, the Kings traded him for the more concise and neat white devil Mike Bibby, and then they completed the transition from a strong team to a super strong team.
's transformation.
Fanshi said he would definitely correct it. In fact, he realized this since he got the technology and experience of Isiah Thomas.
However, he is still very grateful to Kobe for reviewing the game for him like a brother and pointing out his shortcomings. His dribbling was delayed and his shooting was not decisive.
Kobe said Fanci should be more decisive. "You have to believe in yourself. As a defender, you should take decisive action whenever you get a chance. If you can't score, let the center grab rebounds inside. This is also a reward for them."
Forehead….
These are all golden words, but Fan Xi's ideas are not so extreme.
Kobe has a paranoid personality that neither breaks nor establishes. He missed twenty shots but was still decisive on the twenty-first time.
Fanshie is softer at heart. He pursues more efficient goals. Moreover, he hopes to connect the team as a whole, although his passing skills are not as good as those of top point guards.
But one thing is that Fanxi and Kobe are similar in their bones. They are both the kind of people who are desperate for victory, and at critical moments, Fanxi never shows mercy and is never willing to take advantage of others. They both want to kill the game themselves.
, and be willing to bear the consequences of failure.
This is leadership quality.
Fan Xi lives in the city center, so he quickly returned to his temporary residence.
Kobe also suggested to Fan Xi that you should buy a luxury house now, so that it is worthy of your status. If you need it, I will recommend a real estate agent for you, and I will definitely let you buy the best house.
Fan Xi smiled and said thank you.
The United States is different from China. Except for the top-end apartments in the city center, basically wealthy people live in the suburbs, and wealthy areas are naturally divided.
In wealthy areas, all resource conditions are good. Moreover, the speed of police dispatch is much faster.
On the other hand, in the city center, the police are not dispatched so quickly. Because the city center represents a large population and chaotic law and order. In the United States, the police are far from being as brave as in the movies. They will not take the initiative to solve many cases, especially
It's a security case. After all, in the United States...a large number of people have guns in their hands.
Fan Xi rents an apartment that is not top-notch, but can only be afforded by the middle class and above.
When he walked into the elevator, he was quickly recognized by an engineer, whose exaggerated expression shouted: "Hey, are you Jack? Are you Jack who just won the All-Star Rookie Game MVP in the game?"
"
The answer is self-evident.
There will be no one else wearing an All-Star training jacket, carrying an All-Star backpack, and holding a Rookie Game trophy with his name engraved on it.
"Oh my God, you actually live in a place like this. Shouldn't superstars like you go to Beverly Hills?"
The engineer shouted excitedly.
The Beverly Hills he talks about is a famous luxury area in Los Angeles. Rich people from all over the world buy luxury houses here. Kobe also has a house there.
Fan Xi was a little embarrassed.
Then, the engineer quickly asked Fanci to give him an autograph. He said that he was a die-hard Lakers fan and that he firmly believed that Fanci could become a basketball totem in Los Angeles like Kobe, West, and Magic.
Fan Xi said he was honored. He signed his name on the engineer's clothes, backpack, and even his notebook, and took various photos with him so that he could show off to his friends and colleagues that he really met the engineer in Los Angeles.
Miracle Son Jack Van.
Moreover, he can't wait to post on social networks, and he will use the most exciting words to describe that he and Jack Fan are neighbors.
Fan Xi returned to her home after fulfilling all his wishes.
At this time, his mother told him the good news that she had reached an agreement with Nike. Thanks to Fan Xi's great performance in the All-Star Rookie Game, she made Nike increase the investment amount by US$100 million, and let Fan Xi
The amount of endorsements increased by US$10 million, but their shareholding ratio remained unchanged.
After confirming that it was correct, Fan Xi signed his name on the share agreement, and then signed his name on the endorsement contract.
This means that Fan Xi has not only become the major shareholder of the sneaker brand, but he has also used hundreds of millions of dollars in income from drought and flood as endorsement fees.
This is fantastic results.
Fan Xi was very excited.
Later, Fan Xi's mother told Fan Xi: "Your father and I have been looking for a management team for you recently. We will select the final candidate before the end of the All-Star Game. At that time, we will return to China to set up a factory.
They will take care of everything for you.”
Fan Xi nodded in agreement.
He is very happy that this matter has made substantial progress, because as his fame grows, he increasingly feels that many things are greatly affected. If he has an agent team to help him deal with matters outside the court, he will
It is much easier, and you will also earn more economic benefits, especially being able to focus more on the golf course.
While the two were talking, someone knocked on the door repeatedly.
Apparently the engineer named Pixar leaked the information, and Fan Xi had to accept that one neighbor after another came to check in and take photos.
It wasn't until midnight that he decided to leave and headed to the hotel.
He told his mother: "Maybe this is a luxury thing, but Mom, I really want to spend a sum of money to buy an independent house in a quiet wealthy area."
Wu Su supported her son's suggestion. "You are now a billionaire, and you should enjoy it when you have money. Buying a house is a very good way to manage money, and I also support you buying a house in China. The bigger the money, the bigger the house in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen."
The more the city wants to buy, what if it goes up in the future?"
It's 2011 now.
It will still be some time before domestic housing prices skyrocket.
Fan Xi nodded, agreeing with his mother's proposal.
For any Chinese, a house is a place to settle down, especially in first-tier cities, where buying a house is a great deal.
Fan Xi finally fell asleep peacefully in the hotel.
At noon the next day, he was woken up by the alarm clock he had adjusted, and he hurried to Staples Arena.
He has a game tonight.
He's going to participate in the three-point shooting contest.
If he defends his title, he will receive a bonus of US$20,000 again. For yesterday's rookie game mvp, he received a US$50,000 bonus, which does not require tax.
Fan Xi completely ignored his own influence at this time.
Last night, he defeated the two No. 1 picks to win the MVP of the rookie game, making him the most popular player in the basketball circle. His wonderful shots have long been transmitted to the world through the Internet.
The basketball media in the United States are also reporting comprehensively on this super rookie who came out of nowhere and is now shining as an All-Star.
It can be said that this rookie game mvp has completely consolidated Fan Xi's influence. People no longer regard him as a 'shooting star', but regard him as one of the three most shining stars in the 2010 class, even surpassing the other two.
A super miracle star who is the number one star.
So, when he got into the taxi, he was recognized quickly.
The driver was still a fan of his. He introduced himself very excitedly, saying that he had been a Lakers fan since he was 3 years old. He also said that he thought Fanci was the most potential and passionate point guard he had ever seen. He even said that Magic
Johnson had never given him this feeling.
And in his opinion, having a superstar like Fan Xi riding in his driver's seat is just like a Chinese lottery ticket.
He was so happy.
The journey that was originally only 20 minutes ended up being driven for an hour by him. He kept showing his admiration to Fan Xi, and kept calling his good friends on the way to ask Fan Xi to say hello to them.
Fancy played the role of Santa Claus.
Finally, by the time he reached Staples Center, he was nearly exhausted.
Although the driver waived his fare, he thought...this was indeed the income from his labor.
His hands were almost numb.
And I took at least two hundred photos with this driver.
"I have to buy another car."
Fan Xi said to herself.
And when he walked into the locker room, he immediately saw a group of big-name players.
Tonight is not only the All-Star three-point shooting contest, but also a dunk contest and a skills challenge.
"Are you Jack Fan?"
A player slightly shorter than Fan Xi came over. He raised his head. Although he had a baby face, he looked arrogant.
Fanci recognized him, the league's number one point guard: Chris Paul.
