Chapter 259 Curse of Sports Painting

Wang Yi heard a few words "Sports Illustrated", and couldn't help but move.

"Sports Illustrated" is a sports weekly magazine owned by the media giant era.

There are 23 million adults a week, and more than 3 million subscribers.

Can be called the world's most influential sports magazine.

In the United States, a athlete can appear on the cover of the "Sports Illustrated", which is definitely a glory.

To measure the success of a athlete, it depends on the number of times he appeared on the cover of the "Sports Pictorial".

Jordan used to climb the cover of the "Sports Illustration" 50 times;

James has 27 times;

And Harden only had 3 times.

It is worth mentioning that Yao Ming also appeared on the cover of the "Sports Illustration" three times.

Now Wang Yi has the opportunity to appear on the cover of the "Sports Illustration", which is undoubtedly a strong recognition of him.

But thinking of the cover of "Sports Newspaper", Wang Yi couldn't help thinking of one thing.

"Sister Luo, have you heard of the curs of the sports pictorial?"

Rowling heard this, and was a little worried: "I have heard a little, but it is not very clear."

Wang Yi took the mobile phone on the chair next to the side, searched for it, and read it:

"The first issue was launched on August 16, 1954. The famous baseball player Maruus was the cover character of the period. At that time, Malgus led the Milwa Warriors to win 9 consecutive victories, but on August 17th one day, August 17th

The team lost for the first time. What is even more regrettable is that Macos fractures in the game a week later. "

Rowling was surprised to hear this, and asked, "Is there any more?"

"Next is the cover character of the cover character in January 1955. One week after the" Sports Illustrated ", he accidentally hit the big tree in the practice competition, which eventually led to paralysis of the whole body."

"The cover of the 4th issue of 1960 was the famous woman's 100m backstroke player. It remained unbeaten for 4 consecutive years. After becoming a" Cover Girl "in the" Sports Illustrated ", she was in the US Olympic Games.

The first defeat in the game. "

"On November 18, 1957, the University of Oxamoma won 47 consecutive university American football games, which was the longest winning streak record at that time. When they boarded the cover of the sports pictorial, the title of the big word wrote" Why can't Oklahoma can't be unable to "

The defeated ". The result was defeated by the Mother University in the next game."

Wang Yi finally said: "There are countless examples like this. The most surprising thing is one of the one of the 2002. Perhaps the sports pictorial is to ridicule themselves.

. ""

"San Louis Ram Tipo Wei Kurtwana wanted to board the cover with the black cat, but was rejected by the magazine. As a result, the ram team won two games in a row and became the champion of the National Federation."

"Either loses or lose or even be killed after the cover.

Rowling heard this and said:

"This ... One we refuse them? The playoffs are about to start. At this time, the cover of the" Sports Illustrated "cover is not auspicious?"

Wang Yi heard the words, haha ​​laughed:

"This is just an interesting talk. Jordan has the cover 50 times, James has been on 27 times, they are not the gods that should be sealed, the king of the sea is the king.

It's nonsense. ""

Rowling nodded: "You are right. When do you have time, I let them come over to interview."

Wang Yi said: "After the training of this afternoon."

"OK, I will contact them here."

At 8 o'clock, James came to train.

He heard that Wang Yi was going to the cover of the "Sports Illustration", and it was quite excited:

"Brother, you are going to be hot!"

Wang Yi gasped and asked with a smile:

"Are you afraid of the curse of the cover?"

James laughed, and a white teeth were dazzling in the lights of the stadium:

"Wang, if there is a curse, I have been going to 30 times, should I have broken their bones long ago?"

Wang Yi shook his head: "You are different, you are not humans at all."

James laughed again, nodded and said, "You are right. That's right. By the way, the team has appealed to the alliance to the blind referee today. I guess that guy is involved in gambling. If he really participates in the gambling ball

He will definitely have a prison disaster. "

Wang Yi just responded simply: "Oh."

He didn't care about the result of that guy.

The important thing is that the Lakers finally won.

James also said: "Wang, the playoffs are about to start. I have a tips for excluding external interference during the playoffs. Do you want to try?"

"Is it a disconnection? Everyone on the earth knows."

James nodded: "This is quite useful for me. During the playoffs, I do n’t go online during the playoffs, do n’t pay attention to the messy information and sounds on the Internet. This helps me to maintain absolute focus on the game. Do you want to try?

"

Wang Yi thought about it and said, "Well, it's worth trying."

James laughed: "I will start disconnected from tonight, together."

"Together."

In the afternoon of the same day, the reporter and photographer of the "Sports Illustrated" came to the training hall.

After they interviewed Wang Yi, they filmed the cover of "Sports Illustrated".

The cover of the "Sports Illustrated" can be selected from a picture of the player in the game, or it can be taken separately.

Wang Yi's shooting is the action of standing on the Lakers' LOGO.

This is now a iconic action.

That night, the "Sports Pictorial" sent the cover to Wang Yi, and asked him to do the final review.

On the cover, Wang Yi stood on the Lakers logo and was making a shooting action.

Next to his face close -up in the match with the Eagle team.

The sweat on the face is bright like diamonds in the light.

The eyes are full of fighting spirit.

The background is the big "82 points" that occupies the entire cover.

The top of the cover is a big line: "Will this Asian surpass Kobe?"

Wang Yi is still very satisfied with this cover.

But a little bit of opinion on the text above.

He contacted the editor over the sports pictorial: "Overall is very satisfied, but please change the 'Asian' to 'Chinese people'."

The editor over the sports pictorial replied: "I have to ask the editor."

Five minutes later, the editor calls:

"The editor -in -chief agreed to change it to‘ Chinese people ’, I will do it now, and I will send it to you. If you think there is no problem, you can see you on the cover of the latest issue of the" Sports Illustration "."

"Well, thank you."

That night, Wang Yi and his parents called on the phone, saying that during the playoffs, he would break the phone on the Internet. If there is anything, contact his agent.

My father is quite supportive for this decision.

In the early morning of the next day, the editor of the "Sports Illustrated" personally sent the latest issue of the "Sports Illustration".

Wang Yi looked at himself above, and he felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

Finally got the recognition of these people.

No one knows how much grinding, how much prejudice and discrimination they have experienced, so that they can be recognized.

Of course, prejudice and discrimination will not disappear so easily.

So I have to work hard.

The recognition this time is not the end.
