Lu Xun, Anne Hathaway had really heard of it after studying Chinese and Chinese culture. She didn't know if Lu Xun had ever said this, but looking at Liu Xiu's head-shaking and nonchalant look, she knew that her boyfriend was talking nonsense again.

Anne Hathaway said: "You were so busy last year. I thought you were busy throughout the holidays this year and were ready to be your assistant. It was all in vain... By the way, you turned down the promotional activities and sponsors.

Won’t we have any objections?”

"It's okay. I just signed a long-term contract last summer. When I signed the contract, I said that I might not participate in those activities during the All-Star Weekend...and I'm not rejecting them all. There will be a new product launch conference for sneakers on the afternoon of the 18th and on the morning of the 19th.

My peripheral product endorsement that you have invested in...

There is endless money to be made. Last year's All-Star Weekend was so busy because it was decided before the start of last season. At that time, there was nothing else to do. I just worked when I had to work. Now that I have you, I don't want to work if I can't.

.”

"You have such a sweet mouth..." Anne Hathaway rolled her eyes at Liu Xiu and then covered her mouth and laughed...

After taking care of the yard of the new house for two days, Liu Xiu put this matter aside for now and will deal with it later when he has time.

On February 17th, Liu Xiuxin’s new year has arrived - her 24th birthday!

Liu Xiu got up early, went to help her mother, uncle, Qing'er, and Anne Hathaway, and prepared a large table of dishes. Without inviting anyone else, Liu Xiu celebrated this birthday with her family.

In the afternoon, he took his family to Portland City Hall. The mayor, the team vice president, the head of the Oregon Department of Tourism... a bunch of people came and held a press conference.

The mayor of Portland announced that today, February 17th, will be a new holiday, Portland Warden Day.

Liu Xiu had been informed of this matter a long time ago. It was not a big deal. It was not even a legal festival. It was just a festival that might be marked in city brochures, travel guides, etc. He did not do any publicity or show off.

things.

On the one hand, this is because this is the treatment that many players have experienced. Jordan had three festivals in Chicago, and Magic and Bird had similar experiences in Los Angeles and Boston.

Also, he suggested to the city hall to name this holiday after "General", but it was rejected. The reason for the rejection was that no one would think of him on "General Day"...

…

The four days of pleasant rest passed in a flash. On February 18, Liu Xiu and his whole family boarded the "Rose Bay Prison" lent to him by his boss and came to Houston.

The family went sightseeing, got in the car to sleep and got off to take pictures, and Liu Xiu started his work - promoting the Warden III boots and peripheral products.

Liu Xiu has turned down many commercial activities. Those sponsors are not very happy, but the sneaker endorsement brand is definitely very happy. His interaction with fans in promotional activities is obviously more active and enthusiastic than in the past two years.

In the past two years, the daily work schedule during the All-Star Weekend has been scheduled from getting up in the morning to going to bed at night. Even if I want to interact more with fans, I am unable to do so. Physical fatigue is okay, but mental fatigue is the most difficult to solve.

In the evening, Liu Xiu and his family came to the All-Star Weekend to watch the three events.

Yesterday's rookie game, the Liu Xiu family watched the live broadcast. Iguodala scored 30 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists, leading the second-year team to easily defeat the rookie team 106-96, and won the rookie game MVP.

This rookie game was not as exciting as Liu Xiu expected, and he didn't regret not being there to watch it.

There is no qualitative difference in talent between the 2004 class and the 2005 class. The 2005 class has Paul, and the 2004 class also has Howard. The 2004 class, which entered the NBA a year earlier, showed a huge overall strength advantage.

This is the disadvantage of the Rookie Competition becoming the Rookie Challenge. The talents of the rookies must be significantly better than that of the second-year players, such as the 2003 class and the 2002 class, the 01 class and the 00 class. There is a qualitative difference in talent.

Make up for the strength gap caused by one year of professional basketball experience.

After arriving at the scene, Liu Xiu saw many teammates coming.

Although Ray Allen is maverick and difficult to get along with, as long as his teammates come to Houston, they all come to the scene to cheer him on.

How difficult is it to get along with?

Liu Xiu was the player in the team who had the most contact with Ray Allen, but in front of the camera, Liu Xiu greeted him warmly, and Ray Allen just gave him a gentle hug with one hand and treated it as a greeting.

When Nate Robinson greeted his teammates who came to cheer him on, it was about as cumbersome as when Little Flying Squirrel greeted Iverson... Liu Xiu definitely didn't envy Little Potato for grabbing the camera, absolutely not!

Just like in previous years, Liu Xiu saw many stars coming to join in the fun, including Iverson, Kobe Bryant, Tracy McGrady, Carter, Bosh, Yao Ming... There is no society for my brother Dong.

Liu Xiu initially thought that the league moved Kobe to the small forward position to free up an All-Star starting spot for Nash, but now he discovered that it was not the case. It was probably to prevent Anthony from being selected as the All-Star starter.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the three events began, starting with the skills challenge.

Unlike those players watching the excitement on the sidelines, Liu Xiu took it very seriously.

As soon as the Skills Challenge started, he received a system prompt and paid 3,000 healing points to start collecting training materials for the Skills Challenge.

He has already won the Rookie Game MVP and the All-Star Game MVP. If he can win all three championships, he will get a high-end equipment.

Equipment such as ‘Little Bully’s Knee Guard’, ‘Big Black Bear’s Ankle Guard’, and ‘Shoelaces to Prevent Shoes from Being Trampled’ are all very helpful to him, so the new equipment should not be missed.

Last year, I collected training materials from several participating players, and I plan to collect some more this year to learn from each other's strengths and prepare for future preparations.

This year he received invitations to the Skills Challenge and the Three-Point Contest, but declined both of them. Firstly, the team was too busy this year and had no time and energy to prepare. Also, the preparations for the Slam Dunk Contest were far from complete.

At least I need to add a little more bounce...

There are four players participating in this year's Skills Challenge, including James, Wade, Paul, and defending champion Nash.

No matter how you look at it, Nash's skills crush his opponents, and Nash set a new record in this competition with a time of 25.8 seconds in last year's final.

Therefore, Nash, who was picked No. 1 in the preliminaries and was the first to play, announced the end of the game in advance with a time of 52.8 seconds.

There have been cases where the game was canceled due to too long a match time. However, among the players who have achieved results, Nash, who set a new best result last year, set a new worst result this year. The previous worst result was 51.7 seconds...
