Legend of Yi Emperor Rebirth

Chapter 96: Before All-Star Weekend

   The 2008 All-Star Weekend was held at the New Orleans Arena of the New Orleans Hornets.

  Speaking of, this is the first time in the history of the Hornets to host an All-Star Weekend. Similarly, this is the first time this arena has hosted an All-Star Weekend.

   More importantly, the NBA 08 All-Star Weekend was the first sports event hosted by New Orleans since Hurricane Katrina in 2005.

   For the fans in this city, this is the spiritual comfort that the league brings to them.

   "Unity, friendship, and rebuilding a beautiful homeland" was also the main theme of this All-Star Game.

   But because of someone and something, many fans of this All-Star Game have their eyes on other places-they are more concerned about what kind of results the guy named Yi Jianlian can achieve in the All-Star Game.

   "Hmph, it would be funny if no one passed him the ball! I remember that the Rockets' Yao participated in the All-Star for the first time, and no one interacted with him at all!"

   Some fans remembered that when Yao Ming was selected for the first All-Star start, it also caused a lot of shock. Compared with Yi Jianlian this time, it was even worse.

   At the time, Yao Ming was a fledgling player, but he wanted to win three consecutive championships, three consecutive fmvp winners, and the league's first center Shark O'Neal replaced him.

   In order to vent O'Neal, a bunch of old guns in the west had no interaction with him except Kobe and Francis. Even in the final game, he played as a starting center but only made one shot.

   It can be seen how unwelcome Yao Ming was by other players in the league at that time.

  Many fans believe that Yi Jianlian will definitely repeat the same mistakes this time and be forced to walk Yao Ming's old path to experience this embarrassment.

   "Who let him occupy a position that didn't belong to him? This position should belong to the wolf king!" Well, some fans still stubbornly believe that this position should belong to Kevin Garnett.

   "Don't forget, Michael Reid is also participating in the All-Star Game this time. I believe he will definitely help Yi to show off in the All-Star Game!"

   As expected, Michael Reid, who performed well this season, has also entered the bench in the Eastern Conference of the All-Star Game as he wished.

   With his name appearing on the bench for the Eastern Conference All-Stars, the Bucks finally have two members of the All-Star team in the same year after many years.

   Milwaukee's sports channel and official website even reported this incident specifically, and a lot of associations were made from it.

   If the space is not limited, maybe three consecutive championships would have been written.

And shortly after being selected to the Eastern Conference All-Star bench, Michael Reid once again became famous in the interview. Yi Jianlian, the starting power forward in the Eastern Conference, was acquired by himself. He didn’t feel sorry for anyone, and he was absolutely worthy of this. Honor.

   Just look at this posture for Yi Jianlian, which is comparable to Francis back then.

It is said that when Yi Jianlian first entered the league in the last life, Michael Reid also took care of him and helped him speak in front of the media. Unfortunately, Yi Jianlian was too restrained at the time, and the pressure in his heart was too great for everyone. With a stern face, completely unable to blend into the circle, gradually even Michael Reid stopped speaking for him.

   It can be seen from this that a good personality can really determine a lot of things!

   "Easy, during the All-Star Game, you have to take this camera for shooting. In addition, you have to take out this phone from time to time and touch it in your hand. These are the contracts that have already been signed!"

   The day before he officially set off for New Orleans, Dan Fagan took a large bag of things and a dozen contracts to his home and told him one by one.

   "Also, this is a men's casual suit provided by Youngor. You must wear this brand of clothes for the first two days of the All-Star Weekend, a total of three sets!"

   "There are leather shoes..."

   "This watch is..."

   Yi Jianlian allowed Dan Fegan to stuff all kinds of things out of the bag into his hand, and he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: This money is so fast!

   Yi Jianlian roughly estimated that it was just an All-Star weekend and the endorsement fee he could earn had exceeded 300,000 US dollars.

"Don't be too troublesome, Yi, I swear in the name of God, that's the result of my rejection of most of the endorsements. After you become an All-Star, all of China's sponsors have gone crazy, OMG Of!"

   seems to be thinking back to the scene at that time. Dan Feigen, who is still lingering in his heart, seemed to be complaining about something, but looking at his smile on his face, it is easy for Jianlian to be sure that this guy didn't make less money this time!

   "OK, you can take me to the airport!"

   I felt bored for no reason.

   Yi Jianlian has no hatred or dissatisfaction with Dan Fagan. On the contrary, this guy's ability to do things is definitely one of the top people in the broker circle. But when I thought that this guy had caused the original Yi Jianlian so miserably, and when I thought about how much money this guy made from him, I still felt a little uncomfortable.

   Forget it, don’t want to do so much for now, and when there is a chance in the future, to teach this guy a lesson, it can be regarded as revenge for the original Yi Jianlian!

  ***

   Yi Jianlian went to New Orleans with Michael Reid, and happened to have a companion along the way.

It may be because of the coming of the NBA All-Star Weekend. At the New Orleans airport, Yi Jianlian saw a lot of stars: Ariana Grande, Selena Gomez, Emma Roberts~www.readwn.com~Hey, no matter what. It's a female star!

   "Hi, Michael!"

   What makes Yi Jianlian a little surprised is that Michael Reid seems to have been recognized by some stars, but it is normal to think about it. Anyway, Michael Reid entered the All-Star two or three years ago and is still a bit well-known!

   "Easy?"

   What surprised Yi Jianlian even more is that among these celebrities, there are some who can recognize him!

   Uh...you are not talking nonsense! Just your skin color, plus the discussion about you on the Internet in the past two days, you have to know if you don’t know it!

   It’s just a pity that even if Michael Reid secretly introduced him to the works of these guys, he still hadn’t heard of any of these celebrities who knew him. Well, in short, it’s just infamous.

   I have to work hard!

   Yi Jianlian sighed in his heart, the popularity is still not enough!

   Look at Kobe, Jessica Alba, Carey Brook, Nick Ridge, these obvious guys have gone up!

   If you really get to that level, don’t ask for anything else, Scarlett, um~ it’s pretty good~

   Of course, Yi Jianlian would definitely not have the idea of ​​drinking bath water. The taste is too heavy, so let Du Du realize it by himself! He just wanted to hold a hand, kiss, and talk about life ideals in the hotel.

  No way, no way, I can't think about this, the more I think about it, the more energy I get, "Xiao Xiao Yi" is ready to move.

   Yi Jianlian discovered that he was able to soak in the training ground every day, not because of his concentration, but mainly because he did not encounter these things!

   "Fortunately! Fortunately, I am not well-known!" At the end of the thought, Yi Jianlian patted his chest with lingering fear and a trace of fortune appeared on his face.
