When pride still matters

Chapter 299 Please God

On the first day of the All-Star Weekend, Yu Fei's agent Arne Trim became a busy man. In addition to Yu Fei, MM also had another client who was also an All-Star of the season (Tracy McGrady), but he was forced to come up with All the energy is with Yu Fei.

The turmoil at the carnival did not bring bad comments to Yu Fei, but many sponsors who were already attracted to Fei saw his influence and quickly reached a cooperation intention with Yu Fei.

In less than a day, Yu Fei added five endorsements.

What makes Trame uncomfortable is that although signing these endorsements requires his presence, the endorsement negotiations are handled by Quint DeMeo's people.

DiMeo's BBF has become an important part of the Chosen Empire, but as his agent, apart from negotiating and communicating with the team, in most cases it only has a symbolic meaning.

"Fry, I don't know what the point of my being here is," Tram said dejectedly.

"Maybe it doesn't make sense." Yu Fei said like a philosopher, "But if everything in this world had to have meaning, we would be too tired to live."

Today is the first day of All-Star weekend activities.

Not only is there a Rookie Challenge, but there is also a Masters Tournament.

Originally, Houston wanted to invite Parker's girlfriend Eva and Yu Fei's girlfriend Christina to serve as head coaches of the two celebrity teams.

But Christina declined the invitation because she was currently having a cold war with Da Fei.

The reason is simple. The two have been dating for several years and their understanding is deep enough. Christina, who is over 30 years old, wants to take the next step, but Yu Fei has no plans to start a family at the moment.

Hearing that Christina had refused, Xiao Zhan was enthusiastic and couldn't bear to see the organizer being "embarrassed", so he took the initiative to say that he had a good candidate.

So, Beyoncé became the head coach of another celebrity team.

Yu Fei was not interested in this Masters Tournament at all, because what impressed him most about this tournament was that a certain Canadian electric eel in his previous life seemed to often attend the event as a guest, but his performance was irritating. Fortunately, Mr. Electric Eel has brought his talent to prison. Now he can only wish Mr. Electric Eel a better performance in the Sewing Machine Masters.

Later in the Rookie Challenge, Yu Fei came to the scene to cheer for Danny Granger.

Unfortunately, there is a big gap in experience between the first and second years. Many rookies are still getting used to the rhythm of the NBA, while second-year players have begun to become the team's main rotation.

Unless the talent gap is too large, it would be difficult for a second-year student to lose to a first-year student.

Granger came off the bench for 24 minutes and scored 13 points, but his sophomore season was a triumph and Iguodala was elected MVP.

Yu Fei is basically satisfied with Granger's performance. A shooter like him can score in double figures by grabbing some shots from a group of blind monks without his teammates feeding the ball. It's pretty good.

On the second day of the All-Star Weekend, various classic individual events will be held.

For the Bucks, Kevin Martin will participate in the three-point contest, while Lou Williams will participate in the skills contest.

Yu Fei doesn't participate in any competitions. The only thing he wants to participate in is Reebok's commercial activities.

That night, Yu Fei also went to the scene to support his teammates.

Unfortunately, Martin did not bring home the three-point contest championship, and Lu Wei was eliminated in the preliminaries of the skills contest.

Dirk Nowitzki won the three-point contest, but his score in the final was only 18 points, which shows that the participating shooters did not perform satisfactorily. What's interesting is the skills competition. Although Lu Wei didn't make it to the finals, Yu Fei still watched it with gusto because Xiao Zhan made it to the finals and his opponent was Wade.

James made several mistakes in the passing process, and it took him 40 seconds to complete all the events. This basically sent the championship to Wade's arms. Wade lived up to expectations, passing all links in one try and winning the skills competition in 26 seconds.

"I want to win all the championships this season." Wade pointedly held the skills championship trophy, "This is just the smallest one."

Although James missed the skills competition championship, he has set his sights on tomorrow's All-Star Game.

"You know, no matter what the game, I will try my best to win." James said, "I want to be the best player."

What Yu Fei didn't expect was that Xiao Zhan's simple speech could actually attract the linkage of Jordan, who was hyping up the AJ21.

"If LeBron wants to be the best player, his first goal should be to win an MVP." Jordan said with a signature smile on his face, "There may be some distance between MVP and FMVP, but you can try AMVP."

The next night, Toyota Center hosted a huge pre-All-Star Game event.

Reporters brought Jordan's words to James.

He said with a look of surprise: "I didn't expect MJ to say that. I'm very grateful. AMVP? Of course, I want to be the best player, and of course I will fight for it."

In order to keep himself focused, Yu Fei usually doesn't listen to gossip outside the field.

But there was always someone who would relay Jordan's interactions with James to him.

Lawson was very active in telling the eunuch in front of him; "Da Fei, God said that LeBron was going to become AMVP, so LeBron decided to strive to be the MVP tonight. Wow, they are so close."

"Shut up, Tony." Yu Fei said, "You should put your energy elsewhere."

In the Eastern All-Star locker room, Yu Fei sat quietly.

Head coach George Karl said with a bright face: "I know everyone is here to play, but since you are here to play, you must have fun. If we can win this game, I think everyone will be very happy." Yu Fei Let’s ask: “Will Houstonians be happy too?”

"Sacrificing the good mood of Houstonians for the good mood of the entire East Coast may be the best deal I've ever made."

After all, Karl is an experienced coach, and he can mobilize everyone's enthusiasm for the game in just a few words.

Before the game started, James specifically chatted with Yu Fei, "Fry, let us win this game!"

"You know, LeBron, I don't care about this game." Yu Fei said, "If I invest too much, I might win AMVP, and then it will be difficult for you to compete with No. 23."

James was shocked and said directly: "Michael and I have never talked about this matter. It is all media hype."

"So, if I win tonight's AMVP, no one will be disappointed?" Yu Fei asked.

James didn't know why Yu Fei was so confident, just like he didn't know why he was being led around, "Fry, no one cares about this MVP."

"Since you said so," Yu Fei smiled, "then I'll accept it."

On the side, O'Neal looked at Yu Fei with disgust, "Hey, the game hasn't even started yet, and you are talking about AMVP here. Don't you think this is too selfish?"

"Is there a possibility that this is the guarantee that I, as the best player in the Eastern Conference, will lead you to win this inconsequential game?" Yu Fei mocked, "Of course, someone like you will let me down as soon as the offseason comes. It’s impossible for a big fat pig who’s three times fatter to understand.”

Seeing that O'Neal was about to have a seizure, Wade stepped forward to comfort him in time, "Frye, I also want to be the AMVP tonight."

This time it was James' turn to be surprised.

He said that he didn't care about AMVP, which was a way of showing humility. When it came to the game, no matter what happened, Yu Fei directly said that he wanted to win AMVP. It could also be said that it was due to his personality. How could even Wade be like this? Is Frye virus contagious?

"Since you all want it so much, I'll grab it too." Iverson said excitedly, "Let's see who can grab it!"

O'Neill angrily accused Yu Fei: "Because of you, you bastard, everyone has become selfish. You are the source of all evil!"

"What's wrong with being selfish? Do you want to say that you are selfless?" Yu Fei sarcastically said, "If you had been more selfless when you were in Los Angeles and acted like a dog for Kobe, you wouldn't have been traded like waste. Now that you're in Miami, You feel that you are selfless again and are willing to be a dog to young people like Dwayne, but this is just because you have recognized the reality. This is no longer the one where you can hold onto Kobe's thigh and win the championship while holding on to your big belly. It’s time.”

Wade retorted: "Fry, Shaq is not a dog, he is my big brother."

Yu Fei nodded and said, "You are so kind to your dog. Is it usually good at barking?"

"!@#￥!￥"

George Karl has a nightmare team in his heart, whose members are Yu Fei, Jordan, Hamilton, Kenyon Martin and O'Neal-referred to as Yu Fei and his enemies.

One O'Neal can tear the Eastern Stars apart with Yu Fei. If these five people were on the same team, the scene would be unimaginable.

That night, when the East and West All-Stars took the stage, the Toyota Center invited the biggest star of the night to perform - Carrie Underwood, the winner of "American Idol" in 2004. She treated the All-Stars to "Some Hearts," the title track of the same name from her new album.

This is a country song with a brisk rhythm. Yu Fei likes the lyrics in it, but compared to the western stars who look like they are enjoying themselves, the eastern stars all have solemn faces and stare at each other from time to time.

Yu Fei gently shook his head following Kelly's rhythm. He had to admit that this was a great country music.

Good song, good song. Damn it, a bunch of people want to compete for AMVP?

Okay, let's see who is more cancerous.

When it comes to cancer, who has Lao Kemi been afraid of?

Before the game started, Yu Fei walked to the lineup of Western Conference stars and said to Kobe, "Kobe, lend me your power."

"What do you mean?"

"Come on, give me a high five."

"I don't high-five my opponents."

"It's just the All-Star game, why are you so serious?"

Kobe stared at Yu Fei suspiciously, but finally gave up.

"Snapped!"

This was like an evil ritual, giving Yu Fei the ultimate psychological hint.

Hey, I invited Kobe Bryant from the 2002-03 season in the God-seeking event. Come and try it too.

But guess what, am I going to go 47-for-17 tonight and become the biggest cancer in the history of the All-Star Game, or will I go 38-for-19 and become the most valuable cancer in the history of the All-Star Game?

It's a mystery, but you'll soon have the answer.
