I'm really not a superstar

Chapter 233 Be Passionate (Da Zhang asks for a ticket)
In an upscale and quiet restaurant in downtown Phoenix, Dorsey met several members of the CCTV broadcast team.

Of course it also includes Mu Ziluo.

Dorsey didn't come alone, Ross, Fan Jian and Cao Doudou were with him.

The appearance of Rose made several CCTV people overjoyed. They didn't expect to invite Dorsey, and they even got an all-star Rose!

After a few people exchanged pleasantries, Zi Luo took the initiative to introduce everyone, especially hugging and holding hands with Cao Doudou cordially.

However, Cao Doudou kept a cold face the whole time, as if he didn't answer.

Everyone was amazed at Dorsey's Chinese proficiency. I have heard that this guy's Chinese is very good, but it is better to see it than to hear it. It is more authentic than many Chinese people. exist.

Zhang Weiping looked at Dorsey, smiling from ear to ear.

"Look at the black athletes' muscle types are really different from those of our domestic players. Look at this body! These muscles! These biceps! These pectoralis majors! These abdominal muscles! This..."

Teacher Zhang patted Dorsey's muscles while praising her.

"Director Zhang, you have won the prize, alas, you can't touch it here..."

Yang Yi quickly changed the topic to ease the embarrassment.

"We have been looking for an opportunity to interview you for a long time. Zi Luo said that you are classmates, let alone an interview, it is no problem to invite you to dinner. We were all shocked, but we didn't expect that you would spend money! The charm of a beautiful woman is big. Ah ha ha"

Several people on CCTV laughed. On Dorsey's side, only Dorsey smiled with him, and everyone else looked at Dorsey stealthily.

Yang Yi wondered, did he say something wrong?
Although it was a bit awkward at first, when the chatterbox opened, everyone still chatted very happily.

Several CCTV members are not only basketball experts, but also senior media professionals.

After drinking for three rounds, Zhang Weiping suddenly asked:
"Joy, there is something I've been curious about, can you tell me the truth today?"

When Zhang Weiping asked this question, Yang Yi was also watching with bright eyes, obviously the two of them had been prepared for a long time.

Dorsey smiled slightly: "You say."

"As far as I know, you have been claiming that you have Chinese ancestry, is this true?"

"1/8 of Chinese blood, rounded up is a pure Chinese!" Dorsey said with a smile.

"I heard that when you played in China with the University of Memphis, your agent contacted the leaders of the Chinese Basketball Association and said that you hope to play for the Chinese team in the future?"

"Yes, there is such a thing!" Dorsey replied happily.

Zhang Weiping and Yang Yi looked at each other.

Zhang Weiping seems to be a bit wordy, "Joy, I'm taking the liberty to ask, you don't mind. Do you really want to play for the Chinese team, or is it out of commercial considerations to open up the Chinese market?"

Yang Yi added on the side: "Joy, we have no malicious intentions, we just want to help you. If you are out of commercial considerations, we understand that we can also help you establish communication channels with Chinese brands, but if it is true If so, then..."

"How about that?" Dorsey looked at Yang Yi with a half-smile.

"Then we will do our best to help you operate!" Zhang Weiping replied.

Yang Yi continued to add, "I don't know if you understand China's administrative operation model, which is very different from yours in the United States.

Naturalization is not something you can do if you want. There are many departments involved, and there are countless places that need to be signed and stamped. It requires the determination of the big leaders above!

Although we, as the media, cannot directly influence the decision-making of the leaders, we can actively encourage you, promote you, build momentum for you, and let ordinary fans know that there is a black guy in the NBA who wants to dedicate himself to the Chinese team the power of.

Perhaps at this stage, many people cannot accept a dark-skinned foreigner in the national team, but as long as you continue to perform well in the NBA, more and more people will support you. Philosophy says that quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. The voice is loud enough, maybe it can make the higher-ups think about it. "

Zhang Weiping sighed from the side, "This matter is very difficult. It can almost be said that there is little hope, and the chance of success is very small. You must know that there is no precedent for China's three major balls to be naturalized. There are extremely serious policies and laws. Great resistance. Among other things, our country is a country with a single nationality system. If you want to join, you must give up American citizenship. This requires more than determination and courage. A set of complicated regulations and procedures. That's why we ask you if you are really determined to do this!"

This time, Dorsey restrained his smile, and replied solemnly: "I understand what you said. To be honest, I have been preparing for naturalization a long time ago, both economically and legally. Yes, but I also know that this is a complicated system project, and it still needs a lot of preparations in terms of public opinion and policy. In these aspects, my team's ability is limited, and I need a lot of help from Director Zhang, Teacher Yang, and friends in the Chinese basketball circle. Although there are no naturalized players in the three major ball fields, I believe that our country is an open and inclusive society, and sooner or later there will be naturalized players, why can't I be the first?"

Everyone at the table was moved by it. Even Ross, Fan Jian, Cao Doudou and others knew that Dorsey had always wanted to be naturalized and had done a lot of work for his goal, but they didn't expect his will to be so firm. .

What is he trying to figure out? !
Finally, Yang Yi couldn't help asking: "Excuse me, why did you do this?"

Dorsey smiled, showing his usual cynicism, "In the words of Qian Xuesen and Lao Qian, my home is in China! This sentence can be used as the headline of the front page, haha!"

During this meal, everyone completely opened their hearts, the dinner was over, and the host and guest had a good time.

After Dorsey led several of his people to say goodbye to the CCTV team, at the corner outside the restaurant, he suddenly heard a crisp voice behind him.

"Joy, wait a minute!"

When Doshi and the others turned their heads, they saw Mu Ziluo standing gracefully under the street lamp at the corner of the street.

"What are you doing?"

It was Cao Doudou who spoke first. She stood in front of Dorsey like a lioness protecting her cub.

"Doudou, I have something to say to Joey alone."

"If you have something to say, just say it here, you don't have any special relationship anymore!"

Zi Luoxiu frowned slightly, and sneered: "Doudou, where did the letter I asked you to hand over when I left?"

"You..." Cao Doudou was about to retort, but Dorsey put his big hand on her shoulder lightly, "It's okay, I want to hear what Ziluo has to say too."

"Joy..." Cao Doudou said anxiously
"It's okay." Dorsey lightly touched the top of her head, which was no longer a pair of ponytails, and walked over.

"Zi Luo, here are all my good friends, if you have something to say, just say it, there is nothing to shy away from." Dorsey said lightly.

"Joy..." Zi Luo shouted, her bright eyes looked at the people behind her, and then at Dorsey. She still wanted to insist, but Dorsey stood there coldly, unmoved.

Zi Luo bit her lip, and finally stopped insisting, she said: "I know why you want to go to China so much, is it because of me, right? I'm really touched that you can do this, in fact, you don't have to embarrass yourself so much."

Dorsey was taken aback for a moment, and suddenly felt annoyed and funny, where the fuck is this? !

However, after hearing these words in the ears of the three people behind them, they suddenly felt enlightened. So that's the case, the unsolved case of the century has been solved!
It's no wonder that Duoxi doesn't want to be famous, doesn't make money, and only wants to be naturalized. It turns out that it's for love!
Alas, to ask what love is in the world, to teach life and death...

Cao Doudou was trembling all over. He was so busy making a wedding dress for this woman?
But Dorsey spoke, his tone was still cold and indifferent, "Zi Luo, you think too much."

"No, that's it, otherwise I really can't think of any reason for you! During this time, I thought a lot, and I didn't realize how valuable you are until I leave you. Joey, I would like to be with you!"

Speaking of which, Zi Luo actually embraced Dorsey.

Cao Doudou behind Dorsey felt that he had fallen into the ice cellar, and his blood was about to freeze.

However, Zi Luo failed to hug Dorsey, because Dorsey stretched out a hand and pressed her smooth forehead, separating her far away.

"Zi Luo, let me say it again, it's not what you think. Now we have our own lives, two parallel lines that don't intersect. Let the past go, and let the past stay in memory."

Dorsey retracted her arm, and Zi Luo stared blankly at the big black man in front of her, as if she didn't know him.

Dorsey finally dropped a sentence, "If I were Paul Korchagin, I wouldn't want to meet Tonya on that train!"

After speaking, Dorsey turned and left.

Until Dorsey and his party disappeared at the corner of the street, Zi Luo was still standing alone in the wind.

Only the Nalan words were circling in her mind. "If life is just like the first time you see it, what is the autumn wind and the sad painting fan"

At the corner of the street, Fan Jian finally couldn't help being mean, "Joy, you're so fucking handsome! You actually rejected a woman like Mu Ziluo! Tsk tsk, you've won honor for men all over the world... Whoops!"

Cao Doudou kicked Fan Jian hard on the ass.

"Go to hell, you think everyone is as worthless as you!" Cao Doudou scolded.

Fan Jian rubbed his butt, ran a safe distance, and then turned around and scolded Cao Doudou: "Damn motherfucker, don't think that what Mu Ziluo can't get is yours! You are such a vicious tigress, you will spend your whole life No man dares to ask for it!"

After finishing speaking, he fled away.

"Go to hell!" Cao Doudou changed color suddenly, and chased and killed him at lightning speed.

Looking at this pair of enemies, Dorsey shook his head with a smile.

Ross asked with question marks all over his head: "Dorsey, what did you say last, about Dongia and about the train, why can't I understand?"

Dorsey smiled: "Have a chance to see how steel is tempered, but in the United States, I guess you will never see this book!"

"How is steel made? Is it an industrial book? About steelmaking? Do you still have research on this?"

"Ha ha ha ha"

……

On some cold nights in Phoenix, there are laughter, chasing and fighting, and the air is full of happiness and vitality!

The All-Star Weekend has come to the last day, and the much-anticipated All-Star Game has begun.

As I said before, the All-Star Weekend games, like WWE, have a theme.

And this year's theme, apart from the 23VS24 that has been hyped up in recent years, is the reunion and collaboration of the OK group.

"Shark" O'Neill finally returned home tired after traveling east for many years, and returned to the west in the twilight of his career.

A 15-time All-Star, O'Neal is currently the most entertaining player in the league.Although he was not a starter, when he played, everyone cooperated with O'Neal's performance. His teammates kept giving him the ball, and his opponents tried to give him room to play.

Everyone watched the Sharks dribble, dunk, pass and cut, and even made tricky shots. Laughter resounded throughout the arena. O'Neal ignited everyone's happiness with his performance as always.

But the expected 23VS24 duel did not happen.

Eastern team coach Mike Brown didn't want his Cavaliers leader to consume too much energy in the exhibition-style All-Star Game, so he let James rest early.

And the little emperor didn't have the strong desire to win like Peter Pan. Not only did he have no complaints about his early exit, he even watched Kobe and O'Neal's joint performance happily.

Kobe showed a strong fighting spirit from the very beginning. Perhaps the reunion with Phil Jackson and O'Neal evoked memories of his youth. He played like a young man with a strong desire to win in this game.This night, he came here for victory and MVP.

In the end, it was the West that won, and the MVP also laid a double yolk egg. The OK combination of Kobe and O'Neal jointly lifted the MVP trophy, just like Malone and Stockton did in the 1993 All-Star Game.

This is the arena of the NBA, Hollywood-style scenes, and Hollywood-style endings.

O'Neill, Kobe and Mayfair Jackson reunited again, and they showed their true qualities as heroes.

When O'Neal and Kobe stood in the middle of the court with smiles on their faces, who would remember that their unhappiness and mist all dissipated.

This is a great story, and it is also the expectation of fans all over the world!

And everyone else is destined to be a supporting role.

Including Rose, who was selected as an All-Star for the first time.Still a little green, he obviously didn't fit in with the pure entertainment atmosphere of the All-Stars, and he seemed a little at a loss among the superstars who played very high.

Although he was a starter, he only played 13 minutes and scored 4 points, 3 assists and 2 rebounds.

But despite this, he had a great time playing this weekend, because he and Dorsey played together, cooperated together, and won many honors together.

When Dorsey is selected as an All-Star next season, everyone will have more fun!

The Chinese fans are a little strange, because the commentators Zhang Weiping and Yang Yi, in the commentary, mentioned Joey Dorsey, who was not selected as an All-Star, many times, which is bigger than many All-Star players. Talking about his Chinese origin, he even mentioned unfamiliar words like "naturalized player".

However, except for a few caring people, most of the fans didn't care. The All-Stars are meant for entertainment, so everyone just thought that the two commentators said that the cross talk was funny.

In short, the wonderful 2009 All-Star Weekend is over, and the regular season has entered the last 1/3 of the sprint stage.
