Entertaining Children

Chapter 719: The Performance from the Auditorium

Jiang Fengjin is an actor. He graduated from the Acting Department of Shanghai Academy of Drama. He was 27 years old at the time and was a fellow student of Da Xiaoyao's sixth class.

Although after the roster of the NBA Masters was announced, many netizens on the Huaxia Internet joked that the organizer of the NBA Masters would find him to replace Xiao Yao because Xiao Yao did not participate this year. That's true, but Jiang Fengjin didn't seem to mind about it. After seeing Xiao Yao, he enthusiastically ran to the auditorium to greet Xiao Yao, and chatted with Xiao Yao for a while.

Huaxia's three major film and television academies are an important source of film and television talents for the entertainment industry. Although I dare not say that all the professional talents in Huaxia's film and television industry come from these three schools, at least they account for more than half. Over the years, Xiao Yao has met many senior brothers and sisters who graduated from the Department of Performing Arts in Shanghai on various occasions. As long as they don’t have a bad reputation or feel that their personalities are particularly incompatible after contact, Xiao Yao generally still cares about this fellow. of incense.

Whether on American soil or in the Masters, Xiao Yao is much more familiar with Jiang Fengjin than Jiang Fengjin, who came to the United States for the first time to participate in a basketball game, so during the chat with Jiang Fengjin, Xiao Yao was still very enthusiastic. Jiang Fengjin introduced the playing characteristics of some American stars who participated in the competition last year.

Although it was the free time before the warm-up time stipulated in the game, the scene was a bit chaotic, but the scene where many players in team uniforms ran to the auditorium to greet and chat with a spectator still attracted the spectators who arrived earlier and the scene Director's attention.

The on-site director knew that the row of seats behind the bench was for the guest performers of the celebrity game, the big stars present and the family members of the players. Several star players went over to say hello, obviously not the family members of the players, but a certain star, so the live director asked a camera on the scene to give a close-up shot of that area, and cut to the big screen on the scene.

The audience who came to watch the Masters game are basically people who are more interested in basketball and entertainment. Most of them also have an impression of last year's Masters game. A Chinese star who sang a sweet love song. Seeing Xiao Yao's picture appear on the big screen above the stadium, many spectators cheered.

The cheers at the scene alarmed Xiao Yao's Jiang Fengjin who was chatting. Xiao Yao looked up and found himself appearing on the big screen at the scene. Immediately, he turned to one side and pulled Jiang Fengjin into the screen, smiling and waving in the direction of the camera.

Seeing Xiao Yao waving in the direction of the camera, the audience cheered a little louder.

This year's NBA All-Star Celebrity Game, the live broadcast on Haiyan Video started from the red carpet show. When the reporter of Haiyan Video interviewed Xiao Yao and the band members, the screen briefly cut away from the red carpet scene and broadcast the live interview with Xiao Yao and others. At this time, pictures of Xiao Yao and Jiang Fengjin appeared on the big screen at the scene.

The live broadcast of Haiyan Video was cut again.

At this time, the live broadcast was not an interview with Xiao Yao and others. Naturally, the audio was not the voice of the reporter and Xiao Yao, but the comments of the two Haiyan video commentators on the sidelines.

"We saw pictures of Xiao Yao and Jiang Fengjin appearing on the big screen at the scene, and the audience burst into cheers." Li Jun laughed, "It seems that Xiao Yao's popularity in the United States is really very high!"

"Our beautiful reporter Mia has already interviewed Xiao Yao just now." Zhang Yuan continued, "We know that although Xiao Yao did not participate as a team member this year, he is a guest performer at midfield this year, so he also appeared in the competition today. into the audience at the scene."

"Xiao Yao can show such a big limelight while sitting in the auditorium!" Li Jun laughed, "Not only did he appear on the big screen at the scene, but the audience also cheered for him. What will it be like?"

"I heard that he will perform a rock song with the American "Immortals" band this year, and the atmosphere will definitely be very exciting," Zhang Yuan said, "Let's look forward to it together!"

"Lao Li, let me correct you. It's not Xiao Yao and the American "Immortals" band, but the "Immortals" band. It is said that Xiao Yao is still a member of that band." Li Jun corrected with a smile.

The two on-site commentators sent by Haiyan Video this year are still last year's Li Jun and Zhang Yuan. These two were deeply impressed by Xiao Yao's performance in the Masters last year, and they are familiar with him.

Zhuo Zhiyuan, who was sitting on the bench of the Western Celebrity Team, looked at the two people on the big screen and curled his lips unconsciously.

After showing his face on the big screen, Jiang Fengjin also got up to say goodbye, left the auditorium, and went to the bench.

Not long after that, all the players arrived and everyone went to the court to warm up. When warming up, those star players who were full of desire for performance started their performances. Xiao Yao looked around, but did not find a player who warmed up as honestly as he did last year by practicing free throws, running baskets and fixed-point shooting. .

After the warm-up time is over, it's time for the opening performance. This time the "Immortals" band was the guest performer at halftime, so the opening performance had nothing to do with Xiao Yao and others. Everyone sat comfortably in the auditorium and watched the performance of a famous American singer and two NBA cheerleaders.

After the performance session, the coaching staff and players of the two teams followed. This year's appearance is still two red carpets from the bench to the middle circle of the court. The coaches and players of the two teams will play in pairs, one on each side.

Although this appearance ceremony is relatively fixed, due to the changes in the star candidates every year, the atmosphere on the scene is very lively every year, and Xiao Yao and others watch it with relish.

Both captains were the last in the team to play. After they played, the on-site host also conducted some interviews with the two captains about the expected results of the game as usual, and the two captains naturally faced each other without giving in.

After the appearance ceremony, the players of both teams all returned to the bench. After two minutes of preparation time, the referee team came onto the field holding the game ball, and the starting players of both teams also came to the field, and the game officially started.

This year's game is still a mixed team of two retired male professional players, one active female professional player and other male and female stars. In the starting lineup, the coaches of both sides did not send the strongest lineup, but each left a professional player on the bench.

In the opening jump ball session, this year the two teams did not send the shortest players among the starting players to jump the ball like last year, but chose the two tallest male stars among the non-professional players on the field to jump the ball.

At the beginning of the game, the offensive and defensive speed of the two sides was very fast, and the back and forth was very intense. Both sides also had a lot of opportunities for fast breaks. Not high, and among other star players, there is a lack of organizers and passers with excellent overall vision and passing awareness, and the scoring rate of both sides is not very high. It wasn't until the second half of the first quarter that the coaches of both sides replaced all three professional players on the court, and the technical and tactical content and scoring rate of this game increased.

However, as an exhibition game, what the audience cares most about is not the technical and tactical level and scoring rate, but the performance of those non-professional players. Those stars played hard, the game looked exciting and fierce, and the atmosphere on the scene became lively.

As an audience, Xiao Yao was also very involved in watching. Whenever there is a wonderful shot, dribble, or even defense on the court, Xiao Yao yells in the audience regardless of his image, and his body language is also very rich. Only in the first quarter of the game, when the live big screen played back the performance of the audience in the auditorium of the stadium during the timeout period, it showed Xiao Yao raising his hands and cheering in the auditorium twice.

In the middle of the second quarter of the game, the Eastern Celebrities led the Western Celebrities by 13 points. This double-digit point difference is already a big point difference in an exhibition game. The coaches and players of the Western Celebrity Team are a little anxious, and they have obviously strengthened their aggressiveness on the court.

During an attack by the Eastern Celebrities, two Western Celebrities players suddenly double-teamed the player with the ball. The Eastern Celebrity team's ball-handler, who was pinched, jumped up and vigorously passed the basketball to the left side of the court.

The passing player of the Eastern Celebrity team was affected by two double-teaming players of the Western Celebrity team. He passed the basketball completely by feeling. As a result, the direction of the basketball flying out was more than one meter away from the position where the teammate was receiving the ball on the sideline. The teammate on the left sideline didn't catch the pass, and the basketball flew straight out of the sideline.

The Western Celebrities half of the first half is the side of the East Celebrities bench. Just beyond the left sideline in the direction of the Eastern Celebrities' offense is the Eastern Celebrities' bench.

This pass is very powerful and fast, and the downward trend of the basketball after flying out of the sideline is not obvious. The height of the basketball flying to the East Celebrities bench was higher than the height of the bench seat, and the bench seat on the flight path happened to be empty, so the basketball flew over the East Celebrities bench and flew directly to A female audience member in the auditorium behind.

Seeing a basketball flying towards him very quickly, Samion Smith was startled, subconsciously leaned back, and at the same time put a palm in front of his face, and closed his eyes .

However, the basketball did not hit Samien's hands or body, but was stopped by a hand that suddenly stretched out from the side. Samien opened his eyes and found that it was Xiao Yao who was blocking the flying basketball by her.

No matter how fast a basketball thrown by hand is, it cannot compare with a tennis ball hit by a racket, and the volume of a basketball is much larger than a tennis ball. A quick pass doesn't make much difference either. So Xiao Yao didn't hit the basketball, but directly caught it with his hands.

"Beep!" The referee on the field blew his whistle, indicating that the basketball went out of bounds. After indicating the direction of the ball, the referee turned around and waved to Xiao Yao in the audience, meaning to let him throw the basketball back.

Basketball is no different than football. There is only one ball for the game. Unless there is some accidental damage, it will not be replaced. Of course, even if there are multiple game balls in a football game, there are ball boys on the sidelines holding other footballs to replace them, but that is just to save time. Throw it down to the ball boy who comes to the sidelines.

However, Xiao Yao did not directly throw the basketball back into the field, but stood up holding the basketball, holding the basketball with both hands, jumped up with a standard shooting posture, and threw the basketball out.

The basketball thrown by Xiao Yao drew a large parabola in the air, and finally fell into the basket defended by the Western Celebrities accurately.

To be honest, Xiao Yao just shot a random shot on a whim, and he didn't expect that such a super long-range shot could be made, but his reaction was very fast. When he saw the shot was made, he immediately raised his hands in high spirits. , made two "four" gestures, stood in the auditorium as if scoring in a game, and made a celebratory gesture.

In this year's Masters, the organizers marked a blue arc about one meter away from the top of the three-point arc on both sides of the court as the "four-point line". Will count as four points. The place where Xiao Yao shot was separated from the sideline by an entire bench. The distance of this ultra-long shot obviously exceeded the distance of the four-point line marked on the field, so Xiao Yao made the four-point gesture.

On the big screen at the scene and in the live broadcast, the camera flew out of the sideline with the basketball and then cut back to the field, showing the scene of the referee's penalty on the field. After broadcasting the picture of the referee waving to the audience after making the penalty, the camera followed the referee's sight to the audience. As a result, all the audience watching the live broadcast of the game in front of the TV and computer saw the scene of Xiao Yao standing in the audience and shooting the ball as clearly as the audience at the scene.

When Xiao Yao made a shot, the camera lens quickly cut out a distant scene, showing the whole process of the basketball flying out of the auditorium and falling into the basket. After the basketball fell into the basket, he quickly gave a half-length close-up of the shooter in the audience.

There was a huge cheer when the basketball fell into the hoop. And when the big screen at the scene showed the picture of Xiao Yao holding his hands high and standing in the audience with a proud face, the cheers on the scene immediately rose to a higher level.

"Di~" Amidst the cheers of the audience, the referee blew his whistle again, then raised his arms and waved them in front of him continuously, indicating that the goal was invalid.

A spectator throws the ball from the auditorium, the goal is of course invalid, and there is no need for a referee to make a penalty for this. But in the Masters game, not only the players have a desire to perform, but the referees are also very entertaining. Seeing that the referee was making this penalty in a serious manner, the audience burst into laughter again.

Xiao Yao saw the referee's gesture, the smile on his face disappeared, his raised arm was lowered, and he sat back on his seat with a resentful expression.

The coaches and players on the court and on the benches on both sides were also surprised by Xiao Yao's ultra-long-range shot. When the audience cheered for Xiao Yao's shot, there were many players who cheered for Xiao Yao and gave him a thumbs up.

After Xiao Yao sat down again, the coaches and substitute players on the Eastern Celebrity bench even stood up and turned around to pull Xiao Yao who was sitting behind them forward. Judging from the way they pointed at the court, it seemed that they wanted Xiao Yao to play as a player.
