When Wang Yi saw Jordan walking towards him, he was slightly stunned.
Then he came forward to greet him.
He had met Jordan twice before when he went to the Hornets home court.
But there was no communication.
Unexpectedly, Jordan took the initiative to come over to communicate this time.
"Your name is Wang?"
As soon as Jordan came over, he stretched out his hand to shake Wang Yi's hand.
And gently hugged Wang Yi.
I have to say, Jordan's hands are really big.
Wang Yi thinks that his hands are not small anymore, but compared to Jordan, they are still a little behind.
"Well, my surname is Wang, Wang Yi."
Wang Yi reported his full name.
Jordan had a smile on his face.
This kind of smile is the kind of smile that a successful senior would have when looking at a junior who has just achieved outstanding performance.
"I heard that you want to conquer the NBA?"
Jordan asked with a smile.
Wang Yi felt a chill in his heart.
But he still raised his head and replied: "That's right."
Is the God of Basketball here to question himself?
But Wang Yi doesn’t care.
That's what he was thinking.
Even if I handcuff myself and lock myself in a small dark room and confess and resist, I will still say this.
But to his surprise, Jordan had no intention of questioning.
Instead, he patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Just go ahead and do it. As a man, you must do what you say. Use facts to respond to those who doubt you."
Wang Yi was very surprised.
Instead of questioning himself, Jordan came to encourage himself?
But he soon figured it out.
Many people think that Jordan has a very strong character and a strong competitive spirit, so he will never allow his younger generations to speak arrogantly in front of him or surpass him.
But in fact, it's not.
Although Jordan was extremely competitive as a player, so strong that he had to be first in everything he did.
But when it comes to treating younger generations, he has always encouraged them to move forward and even surpass himself.
Before the Warriors won 73 games, the Bulls' 72 wins were considered an impossible record.
When the Warriors challenged the record of 72 wins, many seniors from the 72-win Bulls team sneered at the Warriors.
Only Jordan said something to Dream Green: Go ahead and do it bravely. If you can't do it, I will settle the score with you.
This is Jordan's attitude towards his younger generations.
He is like a god, standing on the horizon.
Waiting for mortals to chase and surpass.
At this moment, Wang Yi felt very excited.
Facing the God of Basketball, he made a promise: "I must do it, and I will definitely do it!"
Jordan nodded: "I'm waiting. When you do it, I will open the champagne for you personally. By the way, do you smoke cigars? I will prepare the best cigars by then."
Wang Yi smiled: "Even if you don't smoke, I think your cigars will taste good."
After parting ways with Jordan, Wang Yi came to the player tunnel.
James and Nongmei were both nosy and asked:
"What did Michael say?"
Wang Yi shrugged and said to James:
"He asked how much red wine you have in your wine cellar and whether he has more. But don't worry, I didn't tell him that you have a lot more red wine than he does."
"Ha ha ha ha……"
All three of them laughed.
James laughed and said, "You are such a clever little guy."
Return to the locker room.
Wang Yi went to take a bath first, and then entered James' liquid nitrogen freezer.
After I came out, I felt that half of my physical fatigue was gone.
This liquid ammonia freezer is really a good thing. After I sign a big contract next season, I will definitely buy this thing for myself.
It's not a problem to always use Lao Zhan's.
I had just changed my clothes and was about to leave.
At this time, the door to the locker room was opened.
A tall, burly body as strong as a bear walked in.
He was really quite tall, and James was a size smaller in front of him.
The locker room suddenly became lively.
"Shaq, big brother, why are you here?"
James asked.
The two high-fived and hugged.
Then the rest of the Lakers players also greeted O'Neal one after another.
O'Neal greeted everyone else in a circle and finally came to Wang Yi.
Instead of reaching out to give Wang Yi a high-five, he performed an ancient Chinese fist-holding ceremony.
He said in non-standard Chinese: "Nice to meet you!"
To be honest, when O'Neal stands in front of him, even if he is joking, his huge bear-like body still gives people a huge sense of oppression.
Yao Ming, who has played against him before, must have a deep understanding of this.
Wang Yi tried not to care about the huge sense of oppression and shook his head at O'Neal: "Wrong."
O'Neal wondered: "What's wrong?"
Wang Yi opened O'Neal's left fist, clenched his right hand into a fist, and said:
"The left fist and the right palm are a blessing for bad luck, which is unlucky and disrespectful; the right fist and the left palm are auspicious blessings. This is the etiquette when meeting."
The right hand becomes a fist and the left hand becomes a palm.
The left palm is for writing, and the right fist is for martial arts.
Holding the right fist with the left palm means using force to make friends.
And only when mourning, the right palm and left fist will be used.
Wang Yi gave a demonstration and said: "Nice to meet you!"
Everyone on the Lakers team found it very strange and imitated Wang Yi’s example and made a fist-cup salute.
Then he said in broken Chinese: "Nice to meet you!"
O'Neal also made a normal fist-cup salute and said seriously in Chinese:
"What a fool!"
Wang Yi was immediately amused and laughed loudly.
Is this guy playing mahjong here?
O'Neal said to Wang Yi again: "By the way, I just asked someone to bring a box of tomatoes to Yao Ming the day before yesterday. Next time you go back to China to see him, bring some for him."
Wang Yi also understood the plot of Yao Ming’s tomatoes and laughed out loud:
"You sent him tomatoes? I'm afraid your relationship will break down."
Everyone else looked confused.
How can the relationship break up if you give me a box of tomatoes?
Here's what happens:
When Yao Ming was in the NBA, whenever he missed a free throw, he would yell "fuck".
This sounds very similar to the English pronunciation of tomato, tomato.
His teammates were very puzzled.
Once his teammate Francis asked a Chinese reporter during an interview: Why does Yao Ming like to eat tomatoes?
Only later did everyone realize that it was fucking and not tomato.
O'Neal took out his mobile phone, took a selfie with Wang Yi, and said:
"I sent this photo to Yao to show him how much I take care of his little brother. He owes me a favor."
Wang Yi couldn't help but shake his head: "You are really a clever guy."
Joyful laughter immediately overflowed outside the locker room door.
At the same time, in the media room of the arena, the post-game press conference has been held.
First is the interview with the home team.
A female reporter asked Zion a heart-wrenching question as soon as he came up.
"There is some controversy over your Player of the Week award this time. Many people say that the Player of the Week should be that Chinese player. Tonight you scored 38 points and the Chinese player scored 51 points. What do you want to say about this?
"
This is really a troublesome question.
None of these reporters are fuel-efficient.
Zion said with a dark face: "Next question."
Another reporter asked:
"I heard that the basketball god Michael Jordan came to watch your game tonight. So did you communicate after the game? I saw that he took the initiative to communicate with the Chinese guy."
Zion's eyes have narrowed.
If murder was not illegal, he would beat these reporters to death right now.
"Next question."
Zion's face looked very ugly.
The reporter asked again: "When he was guarding you alone, he not only guarded you, but also covered you. What do you have to say about this?"
Zion glared at the reporter, stood up and left the table angrily.
I said your sister!
None of you guys are good people.
