After the confession failed, I went to the NBA to play and lose weight

Chapter 129 Daily Life
The movie started soon. The movie they watched was called "Charlie Wilson's War".

However, this film was jointly selected by Jon and Sheila. Li Chengming is just a "tool man" who provides movie tickets, popcorn, and happy water.

Jon likes Tom Hanks, and Sheila likes Julia Roberts, and it just so happens that these two big guys are the leading actors in this movie.

However, even these two box-office elixir seemed unable to save such an unpopular movie, and the attendance rate in the screening hall was worrying.

Before arriving, Li Chengming also made a special search. The investment of this film is not small, but the box office performance is not optimistic. There are more than 2000 theaters, and the performance of a single theater is not as good as "Sweeney Todd" with more than 1000. The weekend box office was less than 1000 million, ranking only fourth.

Despite the film's recent awards season buzz and critical acclaim, it can only prove once again that critics and general audiences have a hard time reconciling.

Li Chengming, as an ordinary audience who prefers popcorn, really doesn't call this kind of movie.

The same is true for Jon. Although he likes Big Tom, he prefers a fast-paced, up-toned film similar to "Forrest Gump", or "Cat and Mouse Game", which is also a biographical film but more entertaining. also.

However, the main theme of this movie is a revelation surrounding the Cold War, interspersed with some historical events from the perspective of the protagonist.

On the contrary, Xie La was the one who watched it with the most interest. Originally, they reserved a private room, and the chairs in front of Li Chengming's body were too crowded for him.

But because of Sierra's relationship, even in the private room, Li Chengming and Jon couldn't do their own things freely. He is not like Jon. He can go out to get some air if he feels bored. You have to meet the staff who are doing movie viewing surveys, and then do some kind of questionnaire survey or something.

If there is another news about how Li Chengming, the rising star of the Magic team, felt after watching the movie, the troubles will not be small.

So in the end, he still held back and stayed here, so he could be considered to be with Sheila.

But gradually he settled down, and after he really watched it, Li Chengming also found the movie quite interesting.

This movie tells the story of the romantic congressman Charlie Wilson pushing the US Congress to support the anti-Soviet Afghan armed forces through social activities. I heard that it is an adaptation of a true story, but I don’t know how credible it is and how subversive this adaptation is. .

After watching the movie itself, Li Chengming felt that it was okay, not ugly, of course, this has to put aside the inside standpoint.

To put it bluntly, this is a bit like a movie with the main theme of the United States. From their standpoint and three views, to analyze a certain event, it is more subjective.

For Li Chengming, who is influenced by his father every day, it is too easy to see this, and this is also a trick that Hollywood has always used.

In this largely peaceful era, culture is the most terrifying form of aggression, and American culture, which is based on Hollywood movies, is attacking cities and territories around the world.

The domestic film market is under Hollywood's "strong ship and sharp gun". If there is no domestic protection and some quotas for imported films, I am afraid it will be crowded out and it will be ugly.

But in fact, after watching the movie, what impresses him the most is not Tom Hanks, nor the big-mouthed actress, but another blonde actress. Looking at the cast list, it seems to be Amy Adams.

He didn't have a deep impression of the name, and felt that she was not a particularly famous actress, at least not in China, but she was sweet and generous, with a pleasant temperament, and the heroine paled in comparison to her.

It was only after Jon mentioned it after coming out that Li Chengming realized that this woman was actually the little nurse in "A Game of Cat and Mouse".

But compared to that time, the same actor in this movie seems to have faded from his youthfulness, and his big wavy hair is quite mature.

When she got back into the car, Sheila suddenly raised her head and asked, "Li, you are so famous now, can you ask Julia Roberts for an autograph?"

Li Chengming was taken aback, then laughed and said, "What are you thinking? Others are big stars, so what am I?"

Sheila held her cheeks and looked at him and said, "I think you're amazing too, all the girls in our class want to date you."

"Cough!" Jon on the other side immediately coughed lightly, and then noticed that the two of them were looking at him, thinking that he was inexplicable, so he could only laugh dryly: "It's nothing, I'll take a breath..."

Seeing him open the window, Xie La pouted, but forgot what happened just now, and went to discuss the movie itself with Li Chengming.

After all, it seems that Li Chengming has been watching with her just now, and he should have watched it. After watching a movie that he thinks is good, most people will always have a desire to share and find a sense of identity.

However, Li Chengming just perfunctory what she said to her a few times, which gradually made her lose interest in talking.

And after a while, probably when she was growing up, it was a bit late, so Sierra gradually fell asleep, and Jon only woke her up when she was at home.

"Ah!" Sheila screamed when she woke up, then quickly glanced at Li Chengming, turned around, got out of the car and ran away, stunned Jon.

Turning around and talking to Li Chengming, he chased after him inexplicably.

Li Chengming looked at the little water stain on his chest, and thought of the girl sleeping in his arms just now, he was speechless for a moment, "Fortunately, I'll take a shower and change clothes later."

Well, still a kid after all.

……

The next day is the game day again, and it is also the first game of the new year for the Magic. The Magic will welcome the New Jersey Nets at home.

The best player of the month in December has also come out. Although the Magic lost a few games last month, howard still won the best player of the month in the eastern part because of his outstanding data and record. Awards, and added a newcomer to his trophy room.

At the same time, back-to-back consecutive 20+ rebounds, coupled with a head-on victory over the Celtics, Howard also won the best of the week again.

In the same way, there is no suspense between Li Chengming and Durant's Rookie of the Month in the East and West, but Li Chengming is still ranked second in the latest rookie list. It seems that the league is determined to look at the scoring average data up.

However, I don’t know if this game was affected by the "home court curse". Under the witness of more than 1 Magic fans, the Magic team was brutally defeated by the Nets, ending their five-game winning streak and ushering in the opening of the new year. black.

Even CCTV commentator Yang Jian couldn’t help complaining, “The fans of the home team must be very confused, because this season the Magic’s winning percentage in away games is far higher than at home. Including this game, they lost 7 games this season. Five games were lost in front of the home fans."

And this is even more dramatic, the Magic led by 3 quarters, and even led to double digits at the end of the third quarter.

However, in the fourth quarter, the players of the Magic team seemed to suddenly be unable to shoot. Li Chengming was double-teamed crazily, but none of the balls he sent were converted into assists.

The 29% shooting rate from beyond the three-point line is desperate.

The most accurate Bogans made 6 of 3 and only hit these three three-pointers. The others were either 1 or 0. Li Chengming himself missed two of his trial shots.

Of course, it’s okay if it’s just like this, because before the main force came back, they still had a 5-point lead, and then the Nets started foul tactics. As long as the Magic started to attack, they immediately fouled Howard and sent him to free throws Wire.

Howard shot 14 of 3 free throws this time, and 8 of 1 free throws in the fourth quarter, abruptly killing the Magic.

In the last half minute, Li Chengming received the ball from outside the three-point line and immediately covered Turkoglu for him. Turkoglu broke through to attract the defense to score the ball. Li Chengming made a jumper and led by 2 points.

With the last 6 seconds left, the Nets called a timeout and almost violated the five-second serve in the frontcourt. Carter almost couldn't find a shot when he came out to catch the ball, but in the end he forced a shot from outside the three-point line, and the result was actually hit. .

Carter made 17 of 6 in this game and 3 of 1 three-pointers. The only three-pointer he made was this lore three-pointer.

The Magic still had 0.8 seconds, but obviously they failed to create a miracle. Van Gundy's tactics for Lewis.

Such a loss is undoubtedly unacceptable, and many fans even stayed at the scene for a long time and refused to leave.
