Chapter 227 [The arrival of the new season]

Dating in China is no easy task.

The streets of any Chinese city are more densely populated than equivalent cities in the United States, and Chinese people love to be busy.When a beautiful foreign female star like Scarlett appears anywhere, she will attract onlookers.

After two not-so-pleasant shopping experiences, Scarlett learned to wear a cap and wide sunglasses to cover up.

Su Xi is used to dressing up like this, and his probability of being recognized in China is much higher than that of other celebrities.

After the Olympics, his billboards can be seen all over the country, ranging from international luxury brands to affordable daily necessities.

There are more ads on TV.

He even almost got into a scandal because of his commercial filming. A popular female star in China was rumored to be Su Xi's girlfriend because she collaborated with him in a dairy beverage commercial.

Su Xi was quite embarrassed.

He wanted to clarify, but was stopped by Huang Xiaoman.Huang Xiaoman said: This female star likes to be popular the most. Maybe this public opinion was released by her team.You come out to respond, but it gives people the feeling that there is no silver 300 taels here.

Therefore, Su Xi also treated her coldly.

When Scarlett was photographed in China, explosive articles appeared on the Internet.It was said that Scarlett flew all the way here because she was worried that Su Xi would fall in love with someone else.Because Su Xi thinks XX is more beautiful, sexy, gentle, considerate and touching.

"Do you really want to sleep with me?"

Su Xi couldn't help but complain.

But the answer is self-evident.

Su Xi is now Tang Monk Meat. If you take one bite and say you are immortal, at least your reputation will rise by two or three levels.

Moreover, you can also experience unimaginable happiness.

Su Xi and Scarlett visited several scenic spots in China.Then, he went to Hong Kong Island and the Bay Island area to do two waves of promotions, and received an overwhelming welcome from the local people.Especially in Bay Island, it is extremely popular.

Later, I went to South Korea and Japan, and both places were also crowded.

In South Korea, some people even swore to produce historical data to prove that Su Xi was Korean.

Su Xi was speechless.

However, money is really easy to make in South Korea.Sponsors give a lot of money, and fans are very enthusiastic about buying sneakers.

Money is easy to make in Japan. Wherever they go, men, women and children are as excited as if they were meeting rock stars.Everyone roared at the top of their lungs. Japanese people worship the strong. There is no doubt that Su Xi is the only super strong person in the world.Isn't it strong enough to beat their American father until he can't find him?
Winning Asia's first men's basketball gold medal in the Olympic Games made these people who had a good life feel proud and shouted long live Asian sports.

Su Xi is unique in East Asia.

Mike O'Connor couldn't help but said: "Jack, you will come here every year to make a lot of money. You will make much more than in the United States."

Susie's flight was direct to Los Angeles.

He is finally starting preparations for the new season.

In the past summer, in addition to the Dream Six team's humiliating Olympic bronze medal and the Finals MVP leading the team to win the Olympic gold medal, there was another sensational news: Sharks traveling east!

Pat Riley traded young talents such as Lamar Odom and Caron Butler to Los Angeles and acquired Shaquille O'Neal by breaking them into whole pieces.

Shaquille O'Neal excitedly fired a water cannon on the streets of Miami and paraded around in a police uniform specially made for him by the police.

He's a bit of a gem, but Miami fans are very passionate about him.

He also reciprocated, claiming that he would definitely help Miami win the championship.

The Miami Heat also signed a five-year contract with him worth more than $[-] million.

O'Neal flourished in Miami, and Kobe took all the blame: Everyone thought he was the one who pushed O'Neal away.Everyone thought he shouldn't have the ambition to challenge O'Neal.Even if he scored 56 points in the Finals and broke the historical record, he was considered to be able to just quietly be O'Neal's little brother.

This made Kobe very unhappy.

Last year's loss to the Pacers in the Finals became the trigger for the Lakers' disintegration. After Phil Jackson left the championship, Shaquille O'Neal traveled east, Karl Malone knelt down and retired, and Gary Payton chose another team.

Seeing him rise up tall buildings.

Seeing his building collapsed.

Only Kobe is left in Super F4.

Su Xi had to do two things when he landed in Los Angeles. The first thing was to invest. He invested in many startups in Silicon Valley. After all, he wanted to meet these young people who were either starting businesses in their own garages or quitting college.

Su Xi's S Investment Company has become the most important technology Internet angel investment fund in Silicon Valley. Many young entrepreneurs have benefited from this, and many companies have already entered the right track.

Moreover, when these companies get on the right track, they will soon form a cluster effect, driving each other and increasing the authority of S Investment Company.

Su Xi’s purpose is that he only makes angel investments, and subsequent rounds of A, B, and C are followed by large investment funds.In this area, Su Xi knew deeply that she had no advantage.

But in this way, the investment income is the largest.

The second thing is naturally to come and see Jessica.

Both of these things went very smoothly.

Bryant was forced into the third thing when he learned that Suzy was in California.Not only did he follow Su Xi to meet the founders of start-up companies, he also drove Su Xi to go on a date with Jessica. He stood guard outside for several hours.

Just to play ball with Su Xi, he was really frustrated.

"I discovered that you really don't have many friends in the NBA." Su Xi couldn't help but complain about him. "If you had a few good friends, you wouldn't bother me like this."

Kobe didn't answer.

He's just a stickler.

Su Xi and he fought fiercely on offense and defense, but... the 'super scoring skills' are indeed no longer integrated.I have become resistant to Kobe.

"I want to win the scoring title in the new season!"

Kobe said to Su Xi confidently.

Su Xi said: "I want to win the Finals MVP again."

"In the new season, I want to lead the team to the playoffs. I want to prove that the Lakers are still a strong team in the Western Conference without O'Neal." Kobe said with great tenacity, clenching his fists.

"I want to win the Finals MVP title again."

"In the new season, I will blow up all the people who spoke for O'Neal, including Garnett, Kidd...Martin...Carter..." Kobe gritted his teeth. He remembered every star who sided with O'Neal, and his resentment was soaring.

"I want to win the Finals MVP title again."

Su Xi said lightly.

"In the new season, I want to join the first team and the first defense..."

Halfway through Kobe's words, he looked at Su Xi next to him. He had already guessed what Su Xi was going to say. This guy was always so annoying.

"I want it too." Su Xi replied.

"Aren't you going to win the Finals MVP title again?" Kobe would have memorized it.

"Can't I both 'want' and 'want' more?" Su Xi asked back: "You may have a lot of wishes." "You!" Kobe was furious: "Come on, I'm going to blow you up!"

"I'm not going to fight you. I'm going back to Indiana tomorrow morning, and I'm going to spend time with Jessica tonight. Don't delay me."

"Let's play one more game. I'll take you back. My Lamborghini is very fast and won't delay things." Kobe was a bit stubborn.

Ugh!
Su Xi sighed, having no choice but to satisfy this annoying little goblin. "Just a handful."

This one lasted for half an hour.

Then, the two of them didn't even take a shower, and Kobe drove Su Xi to Jessica's house.

Speeding all the way.

"You're going to finish it later and play two more times?" Kobe said, "I'm so nervous."

"No, I'll work on it all night tonight." Su Xi refused, and also suggested to Kobe: "If you are so depressed, go home and find Vanessa. She will like you working hard and angry."

Kobe looked at Suxi Bai angrily: You think everyone is like you and only think about that kind of thing. The number of times you have dueled with Jessica in the past few days has exceeded the number of times you have dueled with me. You can't eat it as a meal, young man.

Ok?
Su Xi felt something strange.Kobe, are you teaching me?
...

The Pacers' training camp this season is held at the Indiana University Arena, Bird's alma mater.

Suhi arrived in Indiana two days before training camp opened.

Bird picked him up at the airport with Rick Carlisle, and they showed unprecedented pomp.

Send flowers!

Embrace!

praise!

One-stop!

Bird claimed that he was sincerely proud of Suhi's performance in the Olympics. He also said that Suhi is the greatest and most handsome player in Indiana history. Jordan's achievements in the Olympics are not as good as yours because he has never led China. The team won the championship.

Su Xi listened to Bird's lavish praise for 10 minutes. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Larry, just tell me what you have to say."

"Jack, this is the contract extension we are offering, 5 years and 7300 million US dollars, the highest contract we can offer."

Bird took out the contract that still smelled of ink from his briefcase.

Su Xi frowned and said, "Is it too early? This season hasn't officially started yet."

"It's late, Jack. The boss has been dancing on the hot pot for two months, and he asked me to keep you. You are the first Finals MVP in Indiana history." Bird patted his thigh. said.

Carlisle next to him frowned and asked again: "Can you take a picture of yourself?"

Su Xi was quiet for a while.

This was Bird's most painful ten seconds.

Then, he heard Su Xi say: "Let's talk about it after finishing this season."

When Su Xi was traded and Su Xi changed the contract, he guessed what Su Xi was thinking.Suhi is the kind of player who wants to be in control of his own destiny, he doesn't want to be sold around.

"Winning the Finals MVP is great, Jack, we all think you can do it." Larry Bird slapped his thigh and said excitedly.

Carlisle winced in pain. He slowly moved Bird's hand away from his leg. He continued: "Jack, I don't think it will be a big problem for you to win the Finals MVP again this season. Our lineup has been polished last year." , became stronger. Moreover, we also signed Stephen Jackson. Our lineup became stronger."

"The Lakers in the West have fallen apart."

"It's very possible for us to form a dynasty."

Carlisle said: "Three in a row, four in a row, five in a row..."

Although Bird patted him on the thigh, he was still working as a lobbyist for Bird.

Su Xi smiled, and then he continued: "By the way, Rick. This season our regular season record may not be as good as last season."

Ok?
Bird and Carlisle were surprised.

How could it not be as good as last season?We are stronger.We won 71 games last season. This season we have to go straight to the historical record and strive to win 73 games to kick the Bulls and Jordan's butts.

"Why? Are you worried about chemistry with Stephen Jackson?" Carlisle asked.

"I want to practice my offensive skills in the new season. I still feel bad about the loss to Argentina in this year's Olympic Games group stage. I actually missed two goals in a row at a critical moment. I can't forgive myself. I have to put myself aside." The singles hitting rate increased."

Su Xi said very seriously: "I stayed in Los Angeles this past week and I communicated with Kobe. Kobe told me that if you want to improve your skills, you have to take crazy shots, face difficulties and be brave under high-intensity defense. Blacksmithing.”

Uh….

As soon as Su Xi said these words.

The two looked at each other.

Bird thought to himself: What can you learn from Kobe? He is an expert in breaking up teams. O'Neal was even driven away by him.What can you learn from him?

Carlisle was thinking: Why should he be upset about the failure in the group stage?Didn’t you ejaculate back in the finals?You eliminated Argentina and won the gold medal, but why did you lose the gold medal?

"We in China have a saying that sharpen the knife but chop wood again. If I increase my shooting percentage, the overall strength of our team will be stronger. Please support my plan. If you don't support me, everyone will There is no such a good general manager and such a good head coach in the league who can support me."

Su Xi tried hard to convince them: "After all, you are the best head coach, the fastest young coach in history who has established his own school. You swept the rot of the academy into the trash can. You make those who come after you look up at your back. You are a A living tactical manual.”

"And you, my Bole, Mr. Bird. You are the only supreme all-rounder in the history of basketball. When you play, you are an absolute ruler. When you coach, you are a master of tactics. As a manager, you strategize and win thousands of miles away. Who knows basketball better than you?"

Su Xi's words made both of them blush a little.

Bird, in particular, said it so well.

He couldn't help but slap his thigh, and Carlisle's mouth opened in pain.

"Jack, the record in the regular season doesn't matter. Just make sure you make it to the playoffs. Your idea is right. You should improve your offensive skills first. In the playoffs, won't you kill everyone? I can guarantee that by the fourth quarter of next year No team wants to touch us in May or June.”

Bird put his words here.

What else could Carlisle say as he was throbbing in pain? This living tactical manual spoke: "I will design a new singles strategy for you."

"Thank you. Meeting you is my greatest luck."

After this conversation, everyone was very happy.

After the commercial vehicle took Su Xi to her home in Indiana.

The two of them were sitting in the car on their way back, suddenly feeling a little empty.

The assistant in front said: "We didn't seem to convince Jack, but he was convinced..."

Bird held the contract and then remembered his original intention of coming to pick him up.

Does this count as losing your wife and losing your troops?
