Guard With a Knife

The Olympic Games are getting closer and closer, and Dug finally went out to participate in several promotional activities.

Although Lin Weiwei had repeatedly emphasized the need to pay attention to the security of the scene, two of the on-site activities were ordered to stop by the police because of the large number of fans.

This is something that Du Ge did not expect. In his impression, this is often the treatment only given to superstars like Jacky Cheung and Zhou Helun.

What made him feel even more funny was when he appeared in a basketball stadium in Beijing to promote Nike. But at least one-third of the fans holding his light board are girls, and one-third of the fans outside have not grabbed tickets.

When a masculine arena was filled with girls screaming, Nike executives suddenly realized that maybe they should introduce a signature high heel for Snoopy.

However, his joke was not refuted by the strict vice president, who said seriously: "Perhaps we can really let him wear running shoes or casual shoes, these are products that female fans are capable of and willing to consume.

On the same day, Kobe Bryant also came to the scene.

Although in the end Doug didn't wear his "Venom Series" and didn't officially join the Lakers, their relationship was pretty good.

He is the only player among the three major Nike spokespersons who is willing to share the stage with Snoopy. Although the other LeBron James and Durant are also in China at this time, they are afraid of being robbed of the limelight at Snoopy's home court.

But in reality, nothing of the kind happened.

Kobe Bryant's popularity in China is higher than expected, and his signature shoes are Nike's highest-selling product in China, even though the LeBron James line is more expensive.

When the host said, ‘Do you want to hear our Lord Duke sing? ’, the screams on the scene almost broke the ceiling of the arena, and the faces of those long-awaited female fans blushed.

Dug felt ridiculous.

I'm not at a concert.

This is not the first time such a 'disrespectful' request has been encountered.

But he still chose to sing the song "just-the-way-you-are", which aroused cheers from all the girls in the audience: Although most of them could not understand the lyrics, but... foreign style ! And it is even more high-end than the Korean wave.

Girls chasing stars are often very blind,

As long as the star I chase is higher than your star, it proves that I am higher than you. In 2008, such a chain of contempt was still popular in the fan circle. Those who followed Hong Kong and Taiwan looked down on those who followed mainland drafts, and those who followed Korean stars looked down on those who followed Hong Kong and Taiwan stars. And those who follow European and American stars look down on those who follow Japanese and Korean stars.

However, there is a problem that everyone in Europe and the United States does not know each other. Although the force is high, there is no mass base.

At this time, a Chinese teenager was born on the other side of the Pacific Ocean. He rose up in the United States under the name of a duke. He was handsome, good at reading, and could play basketball. It also occupied the two most authoritative billboard championship positions in a row.

It has both a mass base and a high level of compulsion.

Very much in line with star chasing positioning.

As a result, a large number of fans came into being!

Doug felt that this was so absurd. You don't even know me, but you like me, and you want to give birth to a monkey for me, why?

"It seems that in your home country, people are more willing to accept that you are a singer." Black Mamba teased Duge in a low voice.

Duge shook his head with a wry smile. To him, this was a bit of black humor.

When he was studying in China, he didn't like those female classmates who were crazy about star chasing, and he always used his mobile phone to swipe tickets for Li Yuchun. But now, he has become the object of people's crazy star chasing.

End the trip to the gymnasium.

The Nike sponsor took Duge to the training base of the Chinese national team. They are the sponsors of the national men's basketball team. Previously, they once wanted to stuff Duge into the roster of the Chinese men's basketball team, but they failed in the end.

In the national team training base, Duge did not leave the field. Instead, under the introduction of Nike executives, I met several leaders and had a brief conversation with head coach Jonas and assistant coach Harris.

In fact, these two people had intended to introduce Duge at the beginning, and they felt that Duge could bring about different changes in the fourth position. Judging from the game, he should be able to serve as an important support for Yao Huang, and the rules of fiba are almost the same as those of ncaa, so maybe it will have a miraculous effect.

But in the eyes of Chinese coaches, Duge's strength is not even as good as the main force of the CBA. They are more willing to believe in rigid indicators such as height and shooting.

So in the end Duge was not even on the training list.

As far as this matter is concerned, Doug, like Harris and Jonas, also thinks it is a pity. Deep down in his heart, he is eager to put on the national jersey and fight for the country.

However, no yet.

On August 10, the third day after the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, Duge sat in the front row of Wukesong Stadium.

The match between the Chinese team and the US team was held as scheduled.

After losing two Olympic gold medals in Sydney and Athens in a row, the US men's basketball team formed a superstar lineup this year, and they swept their opponents all the way from the warm-up match.

But tonight, in the first two quarters, the Dream Eight team did not completely open the score, and the Chinese team played an extremely tenacious defense.

In the two minutes when Yao Huang was off the court to rest, the Mengba team directly defeated the Chinese team in a wave, and never came back after that.

After the game, a reporter interviewed Dug for his evaluation of the game.

Duger said: "The Chinese team played very well, and Yao Huang is the number one center in basketball today."

And was asked, if you were on the court, do you think it would be different?

Duger's answer is that the game will still be lost, but the time of the crash will be moved back a bit, and it may last until the second half of the third quarter or the first two minutes of the fourth quarter.

This sentence Doug thinks he is very conservative.

But some people still feel that he is a bit immodest.

Duge ignored these voices. He returned to East Zhejiang the next day and returned to the United States after spending a week with his parents.

He first rented a house in Miami, and then went to New York to participate in the rookie transition course organized by the NBA.

All rookies who have received a formal NBA contract can participate. This course is mainly to help rookies adapt to the NBA schedule and explain some problems they may encounter. Of course, the most important purpose is to let these poor boys who get rich overnight learn how to manage money, so that they don't wait to be summoned by the court as soon as they retire, and then declare bankruptcy.

The content of the course was no surprise for Doug.

But in this training, the two rookies of the Heat and Darrell Arthur of the Grizzlies made big trouble. Police broke into the hotel and seized marijuana from Chalmers' room, and his college teammate Arthur was also there. In addition, surveillance video found that Michael Beasley had just left the room shortly before the police came in.

The news once again pushed Miami to the forefront.

Pat Riley selected three rookies, one is now busy with the girl star group cp every day, and the other two are related to marijuana.

Before the start of the new season, the skies over Miami were covered with dark clouds.
