206: Ares returns to the cornfield, only to find... (Part 2(1/2)

When Wayne got off the plane, he felt that the air here smelled like corn.

It's back! It's back!

After being away for so long, I, Wei War God, am back!

The first billboard Wayne saw after getting off the plane was the Pacers' championship family photo.

It sounds like time flies so fast, it was already three months ago.

As soon as he entered the airport lobby, Wayne saw countless Indiana fans coming to greet him.

On the signs of some Yincheng fans, Wayne also saw "Welcome home NBA-Asia double champions!"

Well, it seems that because of my relationship, many Yincheng fans must have watched the Asian Championships this year.

Wayne quickly confirmed his suspicion, because he found that someone actually raised a picture of himself hitting Curry with his elbow and dangled it...

Brother, please put it away quickly. In your picture, I don’t look like I lost my center of gravity and ran into it!

Wayne is not the kind of aloof player, so he enthusiastically took photos with fans and signed autographs.

Wayne even saw someone holding his national team's No. 12 jersey and asking for an autograph. Can he not sign it?

In the past, people would wear jerseys of NBA stars on the streets of China.

Now on the streets of America, someone is wearing the jersey of the Chinese team.

It’s really cool to come back as a champion!

It took about an hour for Wayne to walk out of the airport and get into a special car.

Jeff Schwartz was personally waiting for Wayne outside. The new season was about to begin, and they still had a lot of work to hand over.

"You played well. Now your popularity has skyrocketed. So, this is the benefit of participating in international competitions." As soon as he got in the car, Schwartz was full of praise for Wayne.

"We have received endorsement contracts from many Chinese companies, covering all types. I did a rough calculation and found that in addition to the Nike contract, your annual endorsement fees alone will be more than your salary."

"Thank you for your hard work, Jeff. By the way, how did you help me with the real estate matter?" Wayne has not forgotten the matchmaking between the real estate tycoons at the championship celebration banquet.

"Don't worry, we already have several investment targets. I have found an investment consultant for you. You can ask him any business questions in the future. This is his phone number, please remember it."

"Well, okay. Phew, it feels like the vacation is over before I even do anything..." Wayne looked out the window at the familiar streets and sighed.

"This is the life of a superstar, Wei. By the way, have you heard the news?"

"what news?"

"Bruce Bowen, he may announce his retirement in the next two days. Due to treatment reasons, part of his lung was removed. At the age of 34, the doctor recommended that he retire.

Currently, Bowen is still considering it."

"That's a good thing!" If you want to talk about this, Wayne will feel better!

"Indeed, Vince Carter and Ray Allen are probably extremely happy too."

"Believe me Jeff, there are many people who are happy about this!"

Instead of feeling guilty for ending Bowen's career prematurely, Wayne felt that he had done a great thing.

Some people really don’t deserve to use “winning” as an excuse to do whatever they want.

Right, Bogut.

In the new season, I count on you to fight me!

After arriving home, Wayne had already found several people cleaning the house.

Since becoming Schwartz's key player, this care has been taken care of in every possible way.

Okafor: "So love disappears, right?"

"Take a good rest these days. The pre-season training camp is about to start. You haven't had much rest during this holiday, so don't run around these two days."

"Don't worry, I will prepare for the battle seriously. Oh, by the way, I have something to ask you, Jeff."

"you say."

"How did you become Chris Paul's agent?"

"He took the initiative to contact me." Schwartz shrugged.

Although Wayne and Paul are rivals, in professional basketball it is normal for two rivals to have the same agent.

"So, the Trail Blazers actually selected him..."

"It's normal for Paul or Deron to be selected with the third overall pick."

"Yes, yes. Don't tell me, there will be quite a few people participating in the boxing match next season."

"What?"

"Uh...it's nothing. Thank you for your hard work, Jeff. You can go back first. I want to rest too." Wayne waved his hand quickly.

Although Bowen was lost, Bogut and Paul were added.

No matter how you look at it, this transaction is a guaranteed profit.

In the evening, Wayne originally wanted to ask Artest out to play, but it turned out that guy was still in New York!

It is said that he is working on songs with several music festival bosses.

Wayne is really convinced. It's only a few days before the start of pre-season training camp, and he's still working on songs.

This is crazy.

There is no other way, Wayne can only watch TV at home alone.

I tuned into ESPN and found a sports talk show on TV.

The guests are Big Bird, Moji, Mousse and Guagua.

During the show, host Jim Gray asked Bird: "Do you think there is a lack of white stars in the NBA now?"

Bird nodded affirmatively: "Yes, I think so. There were a lot of white stars in the era when I played, and I think this is a good thing for the fans.

But now the NBA is completely a black sport, and most of the best basketball players in the world are African-Americans. Indeed, this league is too short of white stars."

Maggie also agreed with Bird's words: "We do need more Larry Birds so that the game will be more exciting. But it is a pity that there are too few outstanding white stars."

When Bird heard that Moji agreed with him, he became more energetic and continued: "When I was playing, there was one thing that always made me uncomfortable, and sometimes even made me very angry, and that was when my opponent sent a white man.

Players come to guard me.

If a white player came to guard me, I would definitely say to him, 'Are you having a problem with your coach? Is he trying to embarrass you on purpose?'

I don't think any white player can be better than me. The only ones who can compete with me are black players.

And now, this situation seems to be even more irreversible, hahahahaha!"

Wayne shook his head. He is still dozens of years old, but he can still pretend to be beeping like this.

After that, the four people chatted about other things. Overall... this is a very boring show!

In Wayne and Bird's own opinion, he might just be faking the show.

But they never expected that this boring program would cause a huge stir after it was aired!

The next day, Wayne went to the yard to pick up the delivered newspapers as usual.

As a result, today's front page headline is none other than Bird!

"Huh? What's going on?"

When Wayne saw the newspaper title, he was dumbfounded.

"Larry made controversial remarks about white players and was denounced by multiple organizations and players."

this......

Wayne quickly took out his cell phone and looked at the news from other places.

As a result, Bird was slapped with more and more hats.

Some say he discriminates against black players because he thinks there are too many black people in the league.

Some people also say that he discriminates against white players because he said that white people are inferior to black people.

This is a hard dunk on Bird from both sides.

He is simply not human inside or out!

Wayne really didn't expect that a small program could cause such a big sensation.

I told you to stop pretending to be beeping when you are old. You must have overturned now!

Wayne immediately called Bird to inquire about the situation, and the call was answered within a few seconds of ringing.

"Wei."

Wayne's last name abruptly changed Bird's habit of answering the phone from "hello" to "hello".

"It's okay, Larry."

"Um...I don't know, Wei."
To be continued...
