American Fortune Life

The sky in Philadelphia is completely different from last year, with cool nights and rain everywhere.

Here last season, they won by 50 points. After the game, everyone was assigned a Philadelphia specialty cheesesteak sandwich, Yao munched on beef and won. A year later, Dayao's mouth only had bitterness, only anger, and only the storm that he desperately suppressed.

After the game against the 76ers, he walked out of the arena and onto the bus. He was angry, but he had to work hard to restrain himself. Some words could only be uttered after he thought about them. He sat in the corner of the bus and kept on the phone, his expression was urgent, his breathing was short, and his tone was fierce. The teammates in the bus didn't know what he was saying in Chinese, but everyone could tell that Dayao was crazy.

They were right, they were crazy. But they were also wrong. He had been mad for two days. After losing to Philadelphia, disappointment, frustration, anger, and suspicion had been entangled in his heart for more than 24 hours. Dayao raised his head, sighed helplessly, and said : "I'm already numb."

This time his outburst was stronger than ever before, because in the past more than a week, the team has not improved at all, and he is really fed up with losing in this way. Throwing the white flag is no different from kneeling on the ground, closing your eyes, giving up resistance, and waiting for the executioner to throw the machete at your neck.

This is unacceptable to any bloody man, but Dayao struggled with all his strength, but he couldn't see any improvement, any change, he could only watch his team sinking silently, angry mind.

Back at the hotel where he stayed, he didn’t spend an extra minute in the room, got his luggage, changed into thicker clothes, and went out with his local friends. This is Dayao’s habit when he comes to Philadelphia, and he has to try Try the local specialty cheese steak sandwich. He can usually wait in the hotel for friends or team staff to bring him back. This time, he wants to go out and relax. He wants to go to the sandwich shop to see and taste it.

While waiting for his friend's car at the entrance of the hotel, the team's staff said to Dayao: Wait inside the door, it's too cold outside. But Dayao stood stubbornly outside, facing the wind, with his neck straightened, and the depression in his heart could not be expressed.

Looking at the neon lights in Philadelphia at night, Dayao suddenly felt very tired. His hard work was like a fist hitting cotton. Such hard work with no visible results makes people tired not only physically, but also mentally.

This feeling is very helpless. Dayao standing on the court is huge and seems to be the most powerful person on the court. But without the help of his teammates, without the passing of his teammates, no matter how much Yao struggled, he couldn't break through the double-teaming of two or three opponents. Without passing the ball, Dayao can only become a target of being double-teamed, and can only turn back and forth at both ends of the court, wasting his physical strength and the enthusiasm contained in his huge body.

After dinner, Dayao asked his friend to drive him around the center of Philadelphia for two laps. He didn't want to go back to the hotel so soon. Maybe the aimless laps could calm down his mood gradually. The friend looked at the depressed Dayao, and suggested: Why don't you find a bar and have a drink, maybe you will feel better.

Dayao shook his head, sighed, and said, "Forget it, let's go back. We'll go back to Houston tomorrow. We'll get better when we go home. Chauncey will also come back from injury. We'll definitely be able to do it in the next game... ..."

He swallowed the rest of the words, he wanted to put Toronto behind him in the freezing rain in Philadelphia, and there were still games to play.

Jingle Bell--

Dayao's friend saw from the rearview mirror that Dayao was holding the ringing cell phone out of his pocket, looking at it with a bitter expression, and finally pressed the answer button. To his friend's surprise, he was not disappointed. Or angry, but Dayao just apologized when he opened his mouth.

"Sorry, boss, I caused you trouble again..."

My friend's eyes lit up slightly. I was worried that Dayao's bombardment of his teammates would make the team's management target him. Unexpectedly,

The legendary young American billionaire called.

"I cursed people. This time, I said it quite harshly, but I don't know what it will do. I also said it last time. I said that if you can't shoot well, you should come to the training hall early and practice every day." There are hundreds of them, but it doesn't seem to have much effect. I don't know what we can win this season if we continue to play like this."

He said a lot of emotional things. When he said it, his jaw was trembling, and he couldn't control it. He continued to curse. This time, he didn't want to wake up his teammates, but for himself to vent. The depression in his heart was still tangled up to the point To the point of vomiting.

"Hehe, buddy, are you finished sending xie? OK, we all know where the problems are. The team will solve these problems. Chauncey will become the leader of the team. Please support him. He is an old man who has been in the league for many years. He Knowing how to get along with you, the Rockets will refill with new fuel next season, I can accept this season no matter where it goes, but I believe you and Chauncey will not give up, right?"

Andy hugged Charlize in his arms with a smile on his face, and listened to Dayao's voice with his mobile phone. To be honest, any Dayao doesn't say he is a model worker, but he is the kind who fights to the last moment on the court. Persistence and fighting spirit still moved people who watched the game.

To be honest, the reason why Dayao is so popular in the United States, and so popular in Houston, is really not just blowing it out, but relying on one game after another. No one's success can be easily obtained, let alone An athlete in a foreign country, even if he is talented, without his hard work, will be quickly eliminated in the commercial league of the NBA.

There are many tall people, and Dayao is not the tallest one. I often see some reports saying sourly, there is no way, Dayao just has the advantage of height. . . This kind of sour words, Andy is also hehe.

But to be honest, Andy admires Dayao a lot, and his ability to withstand pressure is no one. If a foreigner is allowed to bear the pressure of the billions of eager expectations behind him, he will have already given up his pick.

Just like the old hooligan Jordan, the basketball god, said with emotion, "This big man is not easy. He is not like our local players. We may play for fun and interest at most, and at most to bear the expectations of our parents and friends, but Dayao is different. He may carry the hope of a country and a nation on his shoulders, and he may play here alone, but there are countless Chinese people who are paying attention to him and watching his games, and he is the one who puts the whole A man with heaven on his shoulders."

"By the way, Dayao, try to avoid conflicts with Tracy McGrady. I don't want the fans to pass on their grievances to you when he leaves. The management will resist. I don't want you to become Kobe, OK?"

Listening to the words of the young big boss, Dayao's originally cold heart was really warmed up, and the emotion of leaving the Rockets had dissipated long ago, but he did not give up this choice.

He has a deeper understanding of Andy's care and preference for him. Among other things, he is really loyal and a good boss. Looking around the entire league, where can I find such a good boss.

"Thank you, Andy, for letting you listen to my complaints. I am much better. We will work hard in the next game. Hehe, it is really hard to find such a good boss. I really hope that I can stick to it forever. retired from the Rockets..."

"Why not! The alliance is a business, but it also has a friendship. I look forward to raising your number with glory in the Toyota Center when you are too old to run!"

. . . . . .

After hanging up the phone, the corners of Andy's mouth turned up slightly, and he looked down at Charlize, who was looking up at him with a contemptuous expression, and said with a smile, "What's your expression?"

"What a little fox who coaxes people to death without paying for their lives. Just now he complained about Dayao's indiscriminate firing of cannons, and in a blink of an eye he said that he would let him fight in the Rockets until he retired..."

Andy reached into his collar angrily and grabbed it, causing Charlize to be angry, "What do you know, the five-year long contract I just signed with Dayao can bring me at least 1 billion US dollars in asset appreciation, Do you think that the value of Dayao is only to attract advertising investment from Chinese companies?"

Charlize was a little surprised when she heard Andy's exposed numbers, and didn't try to break free from Andy's Lushan's claws, letting him play with her, "There are so many?"

"Ha~ More than that, Dayao is a stepping stone to the huge market of China. The potential of China's market is huge. Do you think my think tank is idle these days? Anta Sports, Uni-President Enterprise, Rabbit Country China Railway, Sinoma and many other Chinese companies are willing to accept my investment, with a total investment of more than 400 million US dollars. Let alone supporting him, I am happy to build a team around him!

The most important thing for Chinese people is human feelings. If I treat him sincerely and earn a lot of money, he will stick to the Rockets and will not be ungrateful for profit. I didn’t see that all the forums of Tianchao are flattering me Huh, hehe, I said that I spent a lot of money to introduce Chauncey, one of the best players in the league, and signed the outdated Boss back to assist Dayao in order to make it more comfortable for Dayao to catch the ball. . . Ha ha. "

"You like to think about people's psychological weaknesses, and the purposeful targeting is the most annoying..."

Looking at the little man who was smiling very proudly, Charlize was also a little excited to be boobed by Andy's big hand, and she couldn't help stretching out her arms to wrap around Andy's neck, and the red chun covered Andy's lips.

Tut tut. . .

Gedaseron, who was holding a glass of strawberry juice from the kitchen, rolled his eyes when he saw the two people on the sofa who were warmly greeted by no one, walked out of the living room from the other side with the glass, and lay down on the deckchair supporting the sun umbrella. , enjoying the Australian sunshine.
