The Fifth Point Guard

Chapter 497: Shooting the Sun, Rejecting Toyota (5000 words chapter, please subscribe)

At the end of the first half, the Cavaliers led the Suns by 4 points 54-50.

The score difference between the two sides never widened to more than 5 points.

Just at halftime, a heavyweight appeared in Cleveland's VIP box.

Hiroye Kitada, director of the International Cooperation Affairs Department of the Toyota Group.

Standing next to him is his female secretary, a Japanese girl. She is relatively tall in Japan. She has a curvy figure and a pair of pink and phoenix eyes that look very attractive. She is full of the beauty of oriental women. Compared with many photoshopped covers, The girl is much more beautiful.

STO's agent David Falcao has already been waiting here.

"Mr. Kitada, you are finally here."

Seeing the financial sponsor coming, Falcao immediately stood up and shook hands with him cordially.

Kitada was not polite and sat down on the comfortable sofa and introduced Falcao: "This is my female secretary, Eimi Fukada."

Yongmei nodded slightly to Falcao, and there was a trace of obsession in his eyes.

Seeing Falcao's appearance, Kitada seemed very satisfied.

"David, how's Shen's contract going?" Beitian asked straight to the point.

"I have already read the contract, and the conditions are very good. When the Cavaliers game is over, I will immediately bring Shen Tong over to meet with you to discuss the specific matters of the contract. I personally don't think there is a big problem. Generally speaking, the contracts I have read, Shen Tong will I nodded in agreement." Falcao said respectfully.

"That's good. We have already failed with Yao's contract, and we cannot have another accident with Shen's contract."

Falcao smiled and said: "Yao's situation is quite special. It may be difficult to communicate with his Chinese agent, but Shen is different. He does not have a Chinese agent. I can fully represent him."

Beita smiled.

Yongmei stood between the two of them, picked up the red wine on the table, and filled their glasses.

Falcao stared at Yongmei's beautiful white legs, feeling a little distracted.

Kitada interrupted Falcao's thoughts, raised the cup and said: "I wish us a happy cooperation in advance."

“Happy to work with!”

"Ding" (the sound of clinking glasses)

Toyota Group, a pillar industry in Japan, has long been eyeing the Chinese market behind STO and Yao Ming.

Because Shentong has been living in the United States before, Yao Ming has been the target of Toyota's attention.

After Yao Ming became the No. 1 pick in the NBA in 2002, Toyota Group immediately took action to hunt him down.

But what they didn't expect was that in the face of a high offer that was almost impossible to refuse, Yao Ming, who was still a rookie at the time, refused directly without any room for negotiation, which dealt a huge blow to the Toyota Group.

So they took a different approach and built and named the Rockets' new stadium, the Toyota Center.

Since I can’t get your people, I’ll name your stadium.

You don't want to endorse Toyota, but you have to play in the Toyota Center all the time.

On September 3, 2003, Toyota Center was officially put into use, and the former Compaq Center became history.

Although Toyota's behavior seems to be motivated by anger, in fact, the Rockets are indeed the biggest beneficiaries.

In the past, the Rockets' training headquarters and game venues were not located together.

Before every Rockets game, they all take a bus from the training venue to play at the Compaq Center, 15 kilometers away.

Now, the Rockets club is headquartered at the Toyota Center, training and playing in the same venue.

Compared with Compaq Center, Toyota Center is indeed more high-end and classy. The number of boxes has tripled. The management has its own office. The training hall is also equipped with the most advanced technical equipment in the NBA. Players can enjoy cold water. Baths, hot tubs and hydrotherapy.

After all, it has been 28 years since the Compaq Center was put into use in 1975 and the Toyota Center was completed.

Toyota suddenly found out that although it named the Toyota Center, Yao Ming did not buy Toyota's fault. Even the Toyota Group did not have a very obvious breakthrough in the Chinese market.

This kind of loss-making business makes Toyota Group regret it.

But they quickly locked in another candidate, Shentong.

Compared with Yao Ming, he is more popular, has achieved greater achievements, and seems to be the best in the same position.

What's even more different from Yao Ming is that STO has fully experienced the influence of American culture and may not be so repulsive to Japanese companies.

Therefore, as the head of the International Department, Kitada tried to contact Falcao first. Unexpectedly, the other party's response was very enthusiastic, which rekindled Toyota's hope of opening the Chinese market.

Today, Beita and Yongmei came here to finalize the contract for STO to endorse Toyota.

In the second half, the Cavaliers and Suns were still locked in a battle.

The trident of STO, James, and Wagner was almost tied with the trident of Nash, Stoudemire, and Marion.

Although the Suns' bench is strong, the Cavaliers have a killer on the bench.

Reggie Miller!

What Miller likes most is this kind of undefended shooting.

In the middle of the fourth quarter, Miller made his eighth three-pointer of the game and made 8 of 12 shots from the field.

After scoring the goal, Miller was completely in high spirits.

At that moment, he seemed to be dreaming back to Indiana. He raised his hand and felt the admiration of the entire audience.

That was his most glorious moment, leading the Pacers to win the Eastern Conference championship and reach the finals!

Looking back, Miller decided that if he could win the championship with the Cavaliers, he would choose to play one more season, return to Indiana, and retire where his dream began.

Miller's strong play gave the Cavaliers a 10-point lead with 2 minutes left in the fourth quarter.

The Suns made a final counterattack.

Nash faced Wagner's defense, took two steps from the outside, stopped for a three-pointer, and hit the key three-pointer.

107-100, the score difference between the two sides is still 7 points.

Barkley said: "Although the Suns' offensive weapon is Stoudemire, Steve Nash is the soul of this team. At the critical moment, Steve hit a life-extending three-pointer. His performance this season is quite good." Bright."

Smith said: "Although Steve is already 30 years old, he has had a second spring in life after leaving Dallas. His scoring and assists this season have all reached career highs, which is really incredible."

James broke through and found the open Gooden, but his mid-range shot missed due to interference from Marion's block. Stoudemire protected the backcourt rebound.

The Suns immediately launched a counterattack.

After the ball was only passed once between three people, Marion received the ball at a 45° angle on the right side and directly pushed out with his chest, hitting another three-pointer!

107-103.

Barkley, who never likes to praise others, couldn't help but praise: "Just now he was blocking Gooden's shot on the defensive end, and the next moment he was on the offensive end. Sean's performance was really amazing. As a third and fourth player The swing forward at No. 1, Shawn Marion is a player with both offense and defense. If it weren’t for his first kiss on the court with LeBron just now, I could give his performance in this game a 10, but now, I can only give it a 9. point."

Smith said: "Don't be too harsh, Charles. Don't you think he looks a lot like you?"

While Kenny Smith was talking, Marion once again grabbed a backcourt rebound.

Barkley couldn't help but said: "You mean, like me, he is only two meters tall, but he can play inside and has incomparable fighting spirit and strong endurance?"

"No, you're just as ugly as him."

"."

The score difference was only 4 points and there was 1 minute left.

Who knows, this offense of the Suns is very critical.

Nash also became cautious about this offensive opportunity.

After several turnovers from the outside, the ball was passed to Stoudemire inside.

The closer to the basket, the higher the shooting percentage.

Even the Suns, who rely on the outside for survival, must rely on Stoudemire's success rate at such moments.

Stoudemire caught the ball inside and then turned around and feinted a shot. Varejao shook his explosive head and exploded.

Stoudemire, who was dangling Varejao, stepped into the penalty area, pretended to dunk, and passed Gooden again.

With the sea of ​​stars in front of him, Stoudemire was delighted and prepared to use the time difference to dunk the ball when Gooden's figure flew past.

But at this time, Stoudemire was surprised to find that Shentong had stood outside the boundary at some point and was looking at him so quietly.

As the players were passed by Stoudemire one by one, the audience let out bursts of exclamations, and Shentong's crotch rose and fell.

Xiaosi was dumbfounded.

What kind of operation is this? !

Just when Stoudemire was staring at Shentong's pants, the referee's whistle sounded.

"Didi-"

Xiao Si looked at it in astonishment.

Three seconds violation.

D'Antoni was so angry that he danced on the sidelines.

"What the hell are you thinking about?!"

Stoudemire passed the ball to the referee and ran back with his head down.

The ball is indeed his problem.

As the team captain, Steve Nash took the initiative to run to Stoudemire.

"Amare, what's wrong with you today? Why are you always staring at Shentong's crotch?"

Xiaosi's face turned red after hearing this, and he said, "Didn't you notice that he was so weird?"

Nash nodded and said: "I also noticed it. It is indeed very big, but our attention should not be on that."

"Ah, I'm sorry." Xiao Si apologized quickly.

Nash stared at the back of Stoudemire running towards the inside, thoughtfully, and then suddenly enlightened.

It turns out that Stoudemire is not good at it.

Isn’t it said in the book?

Some men look very fierce and strong on the surface, but after taking off their pants, they are about the size of a little finger.

So. Sigh.

Stoudemire, who was extremely domineering under the basket, turned out to have an unspeakable secret that was unbearable to mention.

At this time, Marion walked up to Nash.

"Steve, what's wrong with Amare? Let me remind him."

"No!"

Nash immediately stopped Marion.

"This is a sad story"

Marion: "."

Nash glanced over.

Marion returned with a look.

Nash nodded slightly.

Marion was shocked.

it is more than words.

A key attack for the Cavaliers.

Shentong took the initiative to ask for the ball and signaled to pull away.

Wagner, Miller, and James immediately spread out to both sides to create space for Shentong's singles.

Joe Johnson's legs were a little shaky.

He really has no confidence in defending Shentong one-on-one.

Fortunately, Marion's voice came from behind.

"Don't worry, Joe, I'm right behind you."

Shentong stepped down and dribbled the ball back and forth, constantly looking up at the time. When there were 7 seconds left on the clock, Shentong launched an attack.

Dribbling with his right hand, he switched from crossing over to his left hand. Then his left foot suddenly exerted force and suddenly broke through Johnson's right side.

Just when everyone thought Shentong was going to break through to the basket, this guy suddenly stopped and then took a step back.

Facing Johnson and Marion's double block, Shentong raised his shot and threw the ball.

At that moment, except for the basketball spinning in the air, everything else was still.

"Uh-huh."

The crisp swishing sound.

Shentong hit a priceless and difficult three-pointer, almost sealing the victory for the Cavaliers!

After scoring the goal, Shen brushed his chin with his hand and made a gesture of wiping away the gun ashes.

So arrogant!

The scene was filled with cheers.

"Oh, my God, Shen's three-pointer was so difficult. Being able to get out of the gap in a double defense and get a chance to shoot is really amazing!" Barkley said to Shen. He is unstinting in his praise.

Smith also praised: "110 to 103, the score difference widened to 7 points again, and with less than 40 seconds left in the game, the overall situation has been decided."

In the end, as Johnson's three-pointer came out of the basket, the Cavaliers defeated the Suns 112-103 and won their third consecutive victory in the season!

At the same time, they broke the Suns' undefeated streak!

Falcao and Beita in the VIP room.

"How about it? Shen's performance is good, right?" Falcao praised.

Kitada Hongye gave a thumbs up and said with a smile: "Very good, Shentong's game is very entertaining to watch, and his popularity is even better than Yao. We at Toyota Group are 100 satisfied to be able to sign Shentong. "

Falcao nodded repeatedly, stood up and said, "Mr. Kitada, Miss Yongmei, please wait here for a moment, I will be back soon."

Beitian also stood up and said, "Sorry to trouble you."

"Where should be done."

"Shen——Shen——"

"Huh? David. Why are you here?"

"Of course I have something to do with you. I have a huge endorsement and I must discuss it with you in person."

"Are you not in a hurry? Wait for me? I'll take a shower first."

"Urgent! Everyone is here. Let me tell you, this is a big deal. If you sign this contract, your worth will double."

"Wow."

Falcao's words surprised Shentong.

"Let's go, take me to see it."

As soon as Shentong opened the door and entered, he saw a Japanese male and a female Japanese.

"Hello, Mr. Shen, my name is Kitada Hiroye, the director of the International Cooperation Department of Toyota Corporation."

Beita stood up straight, bowed very sincerely, and then introduced himself.

After speaking, he pointed to Eimi beside him and said, "She is my secretary, Eimi Fukada."

Yongmei smiled slightly at Shentong.

A bit of charm.

"David?"

Seeing that Shentong had questions, Falcao quickly stood up and said: "Oh, Shen, that's it. Toyota Group wants to ask you to be their spokesperson. The treatment offered is very generous, very sincere, and difficult to refuse. I have read the contract." Once you pass, it’s absolutely no problem.”

STO has always had great trust in Falcao, but this time.

Seeing Shentong's hesitant expression, Beitian immediately glanced at Yongmei.

Yongmei pulled up a black box from the seat and placed it on the table next to it. It looked quite heavy.

Bei Tian stepped forward and opened the box. Inside was a box full of US dollars.

"In order to make up for the regret of not being able to sign a contract with Mr. Yao that year, our Toyota Group is very sincere in offering you an endorsement contract that is twice the amount we gave to Mr. Yao that year. As long as you sign your name on the contract, this box of US dollars It’s your signature fee to show the sincerity of our Toyota Group.”

It seems that Toyota is destined to win.

Shen Tong slowly walked to the table.

To be honest, with a box full of US dollars, STO has really only seen it in movies.

Even though he is now worth over 100 million, he has never withdrawn so much cash.

"When it comes to money, it's definitely a good thing."

Shentong picked up a stack of banknotes and flicked them with his thumb, making a "clatter" sound.

"This is simply the most beautiful music in the world."

After saying that, Shentong looked at Yongmei.

Beitian was keenly aware of the desire in Shentong's eyes, and immediately pushed Yongmei forward, his eyes commanding.

Yongmei immediately walked to Shen Tong and said, "Mr. Shen, this box is so heavy, why don't you let me help you carry it back?"

Beitian said quickly: "With a hero and a beauty, Mr. Shen will definitely have an unforgettable night."

Falcao looked at Yongmei's seductive back with an envious expression.

Shentong laughed "hahaha".

Beitian laughed along with him at first, but who knew that Shen Tong's laughter was getting worse and worse.

Beita's laughter also gradually weakened.

After the laughter came, Shentong's face turned serious and he said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Beitian, I can't accept this contract."

"What?!"

Beita and Falcao were surprised at the same time.

"Everyone likes money, and I am no exception. But although I like money, I also have a bit of backbone. Instead of being poked in the spine and unable to sleep, it is better to hug the woman I love and have a good sleep together. David, please greet Beita. Sir."

After saying that, Shentong turned and left.

The atmosphere at the scene was extremely awkward.

Beita, Yongmei and Falcao were left in place, the three of them looked at each other without saying a word.

Shentong strode towards the Cavaliers' locker room.

Just kidding, I, Shentong, am not the kind of person who makes money without conscience!

In any case, I am also a descendant of the Yellow Emperor!

Although the first encounter ended in failure, Kitada was not discouraged.

Because the look in Shentong's eyes when he looked at Yongmei just now was indeed full of desire.

But isn’t that actually nonsense?

A young man who has tasted the sweetness has not touched a woman for more than half a year. It is very normal to look at beautiful women with longing in his eyes.

If there is no reaction, then Sister Hua may really be worried.

After meeting with Falcao to discuss it another time, Beita made a phone call.

"Hello, hello, I'm Beita. Yes, this contract negotiation failed, but I believe we still have a chance. Yes, please connect me to S1, SOD, ATTACKS, MAX-a, At-Honeys, From the presidents of H.M.P., I need their help, yes, I want their most popular and top-notch signature actresses!"

"Ah sneeze!"
