NBA basketball rhythm monster

When we get to Houston, there is no reason not to say hello to Dayao.

After putting down his backpack at the hotel and taking a good shower, Li Luo dialed Dayao's phone number.

What is surprising is that Dayao's parents are now visiting their son in Houston. After hearing that a fellow from China was coming to Houston, they warmly invited Li Luo to have dinner at Dayao's home.

Probably the highest courtesy given by Chinese people is that the host has put in a lot of effort to prepare a table of dishes to entertain the guests from afar. Although the taste may not be as good as that of the chefs from outside restaurants, the safe and warm environment cannot be matched by outside restaurants.

Arrived.

"Wow, Aunt Fang, your chicken soup is really amazing!"

No wonder Li Luo said so. Dayao's mother made the chicken soup so that there was almost no drop of oil, but the soup was very rich in flavor. It felt fragrant and refreshing when you drank it.

Yao Zhiyuan, Dayao's father, was obviously very proud of this topic. He told Li Luo in detail that it was this bowl of good soup that made him decide to pursue Yao's mother.

Now it seems that Yao's father is indispensable for his delicious food in this life.

Dayao also has a lot to say on this topic:

"The chicken soup and wontons made by my mother became very famous among the Sharks when I was in Shanghai. Whenever I take my teammates to dinner at home, they all like to eat this."

When Li Luo heard this, he suddenly had an idea and suggested to the Dayao family:

"Since everyone likes it, why don't you open a restaurant in Houston? As long as you pass on the recipe, you will be fine with this skill."

Li Luo took another sip of soup and suggested to Dayao again:

"How about calling it Yao's Restaurant? You see, everyone must be thinking that Yao Ming is so big after eating these. If the Yao family opens a restaurant, it will represent authenticity and will be very attractive to Chinese and Americans."

"Yao Restaurant..." Dayao repeated in a low voice, his eyes gradually became brighter,

"Okay, when you come to Houston there will be a place to eat Chinese food. When many friends from China come here, I will arrange to eat at Yao's Restaurant. It doesn't matter whether we make money or not."

"By the way, do you want to take a share of the investment? I remember your sneaker contract is much higher than mine."

Unexpectedly, as soon as Dayao opened his mouth, Li Luo just shrugged.

"No money!"

"Hey, Li Luo, you are so dishonest! Just now you enthusiastically proposed to me to open Yao Restaurant, but now you are saying that you have no money. Is it possible that you are not optimistic about this project?"

"That's not what I mean. Opening Yao Restaurant is really profitable."

Li Luo explained to Dayao:

"But I really have no money. Now I only have more than 500,000 yuan left in my account."

"That's not right. Didn't you sign a contract worth over 100 million yuan? Although I know there is some water, but it must be more than 10 million yuan a year. You won't invest randomly, will you, Li Luo?"

Dayao was a little anxious, and his voice was a little louder. When he heard that Li Luo had lost such a large sum of money, he didn't doubt whether Li Luo was involved in gambling or drugs. Because Dayao usually paid attention to Li Luo.

Luo's performance on the field. The excellent data means that Li Luo has good self-discipline and maintains good physical condition. There should be no problem with his life style. (I have no sworn relationship with gambling and drug addiction!)

His biggest worry was that Li Luo had listened to the deceit of unreliable trust insurance companies and used his money for some rubbish investment.

You know, this is basically the root cause of most NBA players going bankrupt after retiring.

"Listen to Dayao, I'm not messing around. I have about 5.6 million in salary and one year's contract and after tax is deducted. As for the use... have you spoken to Dayao this season?"

"Of course, after your fight, I called Dazhi to comfort him. Why are you saying this..."

As Dayao spoke, he seemed to suddenly think of something,

"By the way, Dazhi said you have an amazing training facility. Did you spend money on it? How much did it cost? I have to go and see it next time I go to Boston."

"Well, actually, I haven't finished purchasing some things in that gym... There are also some trainers that I'm jealous of that I really can't get, so I'll wait until the next salary payment."

"Hey Li Luo! Wait a minute!" Dayao was a little in disbelief, "You have tens of millions of endorsements? You can't afford a training center? You won't lie to me, right?"

"Then let me tell you directly. This set of equipment and personnel cost approximately... four million? It seems to be about the same amount. I don't care much about this matter, but the price difference is not much different.

"

Hearing the number four million, the three Yao family members all took a deep breath. After being shocked, Dayao even said directly, Luo Li, you are crazy.

However, Li Luo, who was talking about training, was obviously more sober than anyone else. He said to Dayao:

"Dayao, we are basketball athletes. The investment in our bodies is not arbitrary at all."

"That's what I said, but...but you are too extravagant. You spent all your income in the first year..."

"Luxury? I don't think so. Dayao, don't you think our training methods are a bit... a bit unreasonable. The equipment is also outdated."

While talking, Li Luo also used Yao's father as an example.

Athletes of the previous generation trained much harder than some young men raised with high salaries today. They relied on training to maintain competition intensity under poor conditions.

Therefore, many athletes are full of problems after retirement. Yao's father has quite a lot of bone spurs in his legs.

"Dayao, you and I are both inside players. You know what kind of pressure our legs are under in every game. If we don't protect them well, we may end up in a wheelchair in our later years..."

Li Luo's words are by no means alarmist. Historically, if Dayao had not participated in so many high-intensity competitions, his career could have been extended by at least several years. After retiring, Dayao's walking posture always felt uncomfortable. Some people said that it was

Leg problems.

And now that he has Luo Li, he will never let this happen again.

Next, Li Luo asked Dayao where he spent all his money. When Dayao heard that Li Luo had a liquid nitrogen shower after every game, his eyes were filled with stars.

"Technology is changing with each passing day. As long as it is good, we will add it. How about you come to Boston during the holidays and we can practice together?"

"Okay, this is a good relationship, but good guy, you are way ahead of our Rockets in equipment investment every year."

"Come on, your stingy boss is not willing to find you a better power forward. By the way, your team just uses Kevin Cato to guard me?"

"Hey, look what you said, I will assign you a few big adventures tomorrow so that you can remember them."

After saying that, everyone present laughed. Yao's mother also stared at her son, blaming him for disrespecting the guests.
