Chapter 138 [Welcome to join]
Wang Jun's shooting is accurate, combined with his back, none of the amateur players in Rock Park are his opponents.
His training has not been upgraded, and his evaluation of "family team star" is already better than that of ordinary streetball players.
He would not be overwhelmed by this, but he was eager to have a few masters to abuse himself. Only by playing with masters can he learn things and improve his strength.
On August 6, registration for the Rock Park Championship began, and Wang Jun’s chance came.
On that day, LeBron James and the famous hip-hop singer Jay-z formed a team to Rock Park.
While Wang Jun and Theron were rumored to have an affair, James also went to entertainment news. He had big-name celebrity friends, but the two men were not attracted by love between men and women.
Jay-z is a music scene. He released an album every year from 1996 to 2003. His sales are very popular. He is the top rap star recognized by all parties.
The two of them hit it off at first sight because they had the same experience. They were both abandoned by their father and were born poor with their mother since childhood. Jay-z is a basketball fan and likes the little brother James very much. He is planning to take him to debut in New York, play a few games of streetball, increase exposure and increase popularity.
Jay-z has a wide connection and made a few calls. Odom Jamal Crawford Terfer and the other three immediately went to Rock Park to meet and expressed their willingness to form a team.
Terfer has not joined the NBA yet and is also a dominant player on New York Street.
This team may be the strongest team in Rock Park history, and James is the biggest sign. The only weakness is the enthusiast jay-z.
As soon as Wang Jun saw them, he took the initiative to come forward.
If you can play with them, it would be nice to be a substitute.
He mainly practiced together and learned their way of playing ball.
Wang Jun first greeted Odom, the tallest, who was in the top. He knew that Odom played in the Clippers last season and was able to play in five positions. It was very comprehensive, but the team's record was a bit bad.
And James is right next to Odom, Wang Jun feels that he can speak.
"Hey, I'm Wang Jun. I'm very happy to see you. Can I play with you?"
Odom said: "I know you, we almost became teammates, but you were traded by the Heat, and I and another king have also been teammates."
"It's a pity that you can't be a teammate. You are very strong and will definitely be better than playing in the Clippers next season."
Odom was more concerned about gossip and asked, "I heard that you and Charlize Theron are a couple, are they?"
“We are just good friends.”
Wang Jun looked at James again and said with a smile: "LeBron, we almost became teammates, but the Cavaliers didn't choose me."
James waited until he finished talking with Odom before speaking: "Well, I feel sorry, if you were chosen to go to the Cavaliers, you would definitely not be traded. Maybe I would win the game in the summer league."
The two shook hands in a friendly manner.
Wang Jun was a little worried that James was not easy to get along with. After all, he was the No. 1 pick, the most popular, and signed a big contract. He looked at it in all aspects and was not on the same level as him.
After saying only a few words, Wang Jun breathed a sigh of relief.
He felt that James and Wade were the same type of people, without airs and were very mature.
In fact, James is also from a slum, he is a mature young man and is very good at being a human being.
James didn't know Wang Jun in the summer league and didn't say anything.
Later, he looked at the news and found that Wang Jun's exposure rate exceeded that of most first-round picks.
After a little analysis, he felt that being friends with Wang Jun was beneficial. The reason was very simple. He was a Chinese player playing in NBA.
Last season, O'Neal and Barkley were very happy when they started the game, but they were spurted out by major Chinese organizations and soon became honest.
The reporter asked Barkley again this summer: "What do you think of Yao Ming?"
"I admire him very much, he has a promising future."
Interview with O'Neal: "Do you think Yao Ming is an All-Star Center?"
"Yao is the best center after me. He is my buddy. He is great..."
James doesn't want to be criticized by Chinese people for one day. He hopes to be loved by Chinese fans and attract overseas markets. So he immediately put Wang Jun's shoulder on his shoulder and recommended to Jay-z, suggesting that he join the team as well.
Jay-z wore sunglasses and raised his head like a gangster boss, asking, "Do you know who I am?"
"I don't know." Wang Jun answered truthfully.
"Fuck, I'm so honest. I like you, welcome to join." Jay-z smiled and shook hands with Wang Jun.
He asked this question a test because he didn't believe that there were Chinese people who like their hip-hop music, and he knew best who bought his album.
This super team composed of NBA players signed up for the competition and was immediately followed by the media.
After playing in Rock Park for a while, Jay-z invited a luxury restaurant in New York for dinner and could bring his girlfriend, and Wang Jun was no exception.
After calling his girlfriend, James reminded Wang Jun: "Call me if you have friends, don't be polite, otherwise he will think you look down on him."
"Thank you."
Wang Jun felt that he could also integrate into the black world.
Although he is not clear about Jay-z's deeds and influence, how could the person who can be James' eldest brother is an ordinary person?
So Wang Jun called Abby and asked her to have dinner together, at the location of jeanges.
"What? I heard it right? How could you get your seat there?" Abby asked in surprise.
Abby's immediate boss George Whitman and his wife once went there for dinner. My colleagues said that it was the top restaurant in New York, a recognized New York fashion landmark, and a Vanity Fair for New York to consider identity.
There are two types of people who come here to dine most often, one is a celebrity, such as big names like Denzel Washington Tom Cruise; the other is a successful businessman who knows how to enjoy life.
There is a saying that to prove the status of a New York man, it is to see whether he needs to make an appointment when he sees jeanges.
"It's not that I have set a seat, it's someone who treats you."
"Charlie is in New York?" Abby arched his nose.
"No, it's jay-z." Wang Jun replied.
"Ahh? When did you become friends with him?" Abby opened his mouth wide.
Wang Jun doesn't know the other party's background, Abby knows that Jay-z is a superstar and has a great influence among black people.
His girlfriend Beyoncé is also a big star. She was once a member of the Real Girls group. After solo, she just released her solo album "Dangerous Love" in June this year. This album won the first place on the Billboard Album Chart, reaching 3.17 million in the first week.
"It was LeBron who introduced us to us. I just met you today." Wang Jun was surprised and a little proud when he saw Abby.
"Which LeBron?"
"It's the No. 1 pick, he's next to me now." Wang Jun said with a smile.
“…”
Abby twisted his arm and suspected that he had traveled to another time and space.
Just when we went out together in the morning, Wang Jun was still a rookie who had signed a two-year contract. Why do we seem to be a group of celebrities surrounding him now?
After posting for a while, Abby replied: "I'm going to get off work, I'll be here later."
For her, this is also an opportunity and a good opportunity to build connections. If she met several celebrities, especially with James, ESPN would definitely reuse her, and maybe she would get to the top faster.
She lamented that Wang Jun was lucky and she also had good luck.
