You should cross the mountains like a brave man

Chapter 330 True Love
Bryant scheduled Gianna's birth party for the end of May.

That time period is when most people can spare time. Before that day, Wei Xia and Kobe didn't have much contact.

In the first few days, Wei Xia had nothing to do.

He participated in Jim Bass's party and had a one-night stand with Kim Director. Although the other party was 10 years older than him, he was not very old. In terms of personality, she might be the best among all the women he had ever met—except Mei Chen—she was very considerate and gentle.

Director allowed Weixia to quickly get through the period of lost love, and quickly found motivation from the loss after the end of the season.

In addition to participating in business activities, Wei Xia started special training by the way.

In 24 hours a day, he spends 15 hours outside, and for the remaining 9 hours, he either participates in business activities or goes to find Director. He seldom goes home, causing Wei Qiu to complain that his younger brother has been corrupted by Los Angeles and is no longer the good boy who always has a home.

Then one day, Wei Xia went home early on purpose, only to find that Wei Qiu and Li Zhongxian were carrying out multiplayer sports at home with a bunch of dubious women.

They even invited Wei Xia to join.

Wei Xia is still single, he has not established a deeper relationship with Director, and they are both content with the status quo.But this does not mean that Wei Xia has become a bohemian.

He had no interest in participating in their multiplayer and just turned away.

From May 5th, Wei Xia was free.When the season just ended, he had a lot of business activities and signings continued.

In the past two weeks, he probably made nearly 1000 million yuan.

Now, the signature sneakers have been decided, the commercials are filmed, and the various contracts are almost signed, and further arrangements will be made next month.

Although Wei Xia is the most exciting Lakers rookie in Los Angeles after Kobe, he does not have the topicality and commercial value of the latter's early career.

He doesn't naturally think of himself as a star.

Even if he is already a star, he will still walk on the street, casually recognized by others, sometimes wearing a hat at most is considered a disguise.

Because there is no sense of distance between him and the fans, and he adheres to the strategy of "cautious words and deeds" in front of the media, there is no gossip, no scandal, no hype, and no off-court rhythm.

He's the kind of "work out, play, go home" type of player that Popovich wants most.

That quality would fit him in well in San Antonio, but in Los Angeles, it's a bit out of place.

As a result, he won't have the endless activities that other L.A. stars have.

As soon as his activities were over, he put all his energy into training.

Wei Xia has to shoot 2000 three-pointers every day, 1000 shots at the top of the arc, 400 shots at the bottom corners on the left and right sides, and the remaining 200 shots are high-intensity practice of self-shooting and self-picking.

The workout was inspired by Steve Nash's 15-minute cardio shot workout posted on YouTube.

The difference between Wei Xia's training and Nash's is that the latter shoots wherever he picks up the ball, while Wei Xia has to shoot outside the three-point line when he picks up the ball.

Because training requires no one to help pick up and pass the ball, every time he makes a three-pointer, he has to leave his original position and run to the basket to pick up the ball and dribble it beyond the three-point line.

Moreover, Wei Xia set a high standard for himself.

If after 200 shots, the hit rate does not reach 65%, start over.

This is the initial standard, and as his training progresses, the standard will become higher and higher.

The last 200 goals of the day were the most painful time for Wei Xia.

At that time, his physical fitness had bottomed out, but he had to face the highest intensity shooting training.

Although the process is painful, the result is sweet.

On the first day, he carried out a complete special training, and at the end he scored 200 three-pointers by himself, and his hit rate reached 70%.

The last ball went into the basket hollow, and he knelt down facing the basket.

He landed on the ground with his hands paralyzed, and lay face down.

"Ha!~"

He gasped for breath, sweat dripping from his body and soaking the floor beneath him.

Accompanying trainers according to their respective division of labor, one person takes the towel, one person prepares the massage, and one person takes the prepared sports drink.

"Good job, Wish." The white man in charge of planning the training plan said with satisfaction, "I can give you 100 points for today's training."

Wei Xia asked with a smile, "Aren't you afraid that I'll be proud?"

"You have every reason to be proud of yourself." The other party's words made Wei Xia laugh.

With the help of an entire training team, Wei Xia was liberated from his paralyzed state.

There are a total of 9 people in the team.

Even the cheapest training team can cost no less than $5 a month to hire, and this training team is by no means the cheapest.

At first, Wei Xia didn't like Bass's behavior, thinking he was too frivolous and arrogant.Moreover, there are big problems with private life.He grew up hearing too many stories of good players being led astray by bad guys, and he didn't want to be the next protagonist in the same pattern of stories.

But the care of little Bass made him irresistible.

Without Buss Jr., can he quickly gain a foothold in Los Angeles?Absolutely not.

Therefore, Wei Xia is very grateful to Bass Jr.

He knows from the bottom of his heart that the way to repay the other party is not to show loyalty and say nice compliments, but to show his low-quality side with his chest up in front of others.

Wei Xia was about to leave when Bass called him over again.

They have strengthened their determination to select Kyle Lowry in this year's draft.According to the feedback from the Lakers scouting team, they decided that Lowry is not a flashy player. He will not do a dozen cross steps and then stop and shoot. He can read the defense and pass the ball correctly and let the player score in the correct position.

Compared with choosing Lowry, Wei Xia is more concerned about the reinforcement of the inside line.

The Lakers have suffered too many losses in the interior this year. If there are a few interiors that can withstand their opponents, maybe the Clippers will be eliminated in the semifinals.

Let Elton Brand play the power of the peak sharks, and every Lakers management is responsible.

Regarding the reinforcement of the inside line, Bass Jr. reassured Wei Xia, saying that the management had his own ideas, but he didn't say how to do it.

Moreover, according to Buss Jr., regarding the signings in the summer, Jackson only has the right to suggest to the old Buss, and he cannot decide who the Lakers will sign with.

Because he screwed up last summer, including Toni Kukoc, giving Sprewell a salary that can support his family, and recruiting old rival Brian Russell, every signing is incomprehensible.

It's been a long time since the Lakers have had a summer of reinforcements without making the team significantly stronger.

It was Jackson who let the Lakers management know what it felt like to throw money at useless people.

Thanks to Kobe's superb regular season, otherwise the Lakers would have missed the playoffs for two consecutive years.

Wei Xia drove out of the "territory" of Little Bath.

At the intersection, turn left, it is home, turn right, it is Director's home.

Wei Xia picked up the phone and sent a text message to Director: "Are you at home?"

"Sure, are you coming on 'patrol'?"

"Yes, tigers patrol every day."

Then she sent a kiss emoji.

Wei Xia forgot about going home, he didn't know what he belonged to, let alone why he went to Director frequently.

But the pressure he accumulated every day can indeed be completely released in Director's home.

Every time he finished, he tried his best as if he just had a bullfight with Kobe.

"You seem to be in a good mood recently."

Director was in his underwear and took a sip of after-event wine.

"Do you want me to come in a bad mood?" Wei Xia asked.

"Why not? You seem to be more brave when you are in a bad mood." Director smiled charmingly.

Wei Xia proudly stated that he was brave at all times, and then suddenly remembered that he would go to Kobe's house to attend a party in a few days.

Kobe's second daughter, Gianna, was born on May 5, while her mother, Kobe's wife Vanessa, was born on May 2, and the birthdays of the mother and daughter were only three days apart.Kobe held a party this time, which also meant celebrating the birthdays of their mother and daughter.

Wei Xia hasn't prepared a gift so far, he doesn't know what gift to prepare.

Maybe Director could give him some advice.

"Do you know Vanessa? Kobe's wife, that Vanessa." Wei Xia asked.

"I don't know her, but I read in the newspaper how she appeared as a witness in court to help Kobe clarify." Director said enviously, "I think she and Kobe must be true love."

Wei Xia didn't doubt this, but why did Director say that?
"You haven't even seen her."

"Kobe's incident was the most famous sports scandal after OJ Simpson. I read some reports at the time." Direcht said with reason, "Kobe and Vanessa did not sign a property agreement before marriage. If Vanessa divorced for this at the time, she could share tens of millions of property, but she didn't do that."

Director's words reminded Wei Xia of the first time he met Vanessa.

Although it was awkward at the time, it was the first and only time he saw Kobe acting like a "soft guy", right in front of Vanessa, in front of his face.

With Kobe's strength, if he didn't really like it, who would want to bow his head and shrink his eggs?

At the end of the month, Wei Xia prepared an inexpensive but thoughtful gift for Vanessa and her daughter.

Before attending the party, Wei Xia deliberately searched the Internet for more information about Kobe and Vanessa.

He originally wanted to learn more about Vanessa, but unexpectedly, he found the inside story about how Kobe fell out with his family.

The year 2000 was a dividing point.

Before that, Kobe was a perfect idol, son, brother, and player, and then he broke with all his relatives and friends because of Vanessa.

This is not an exaggeration at all. He drove his parents out of the house, took back their investment equity, and made those relatives who lost their jobs because of him lose their jobs.Kobe's mother, Pamela, was a strong woman.If it is said that Kobe inherited his father's athletic talent, then his personality is inherited from his mother.

Pamela is both strong and controlling, and the young Kobe is rebellious and meets the love of his life-another strong woman.

He made an incomprehensible cut between family affection and love.

During that time, Kobe's image became negative, but he was still the darling of Los Angeles. The media generally believed that it was Vanessa's fault, and the reports about Vanessa also tended to be negative.

By consulting the data, the collected information is integrated with Vanessa in memory.

He thinks that those materials may vilify Vanessa, but Vanessa is indeed that kind of person.Before she became Vanessa Bryant, her domineering would be misinterpreted as arrogance, her strength would be interpreted as unreasonable, and even her skin color, which was neither black nor white, might be attacked by racial discriminators who did not distinguish between black and white.

There must be some dazzling light on her body that attracted Kobe.

Let Kobe believe that that is the love of his life.

What about Wei Xia himself?Has he met this woman?
So far, he can at least be sure that Director is not that woman. Although their relationship is very close, it is more about getting what they want.He enjoys being cared for and loved, while Director needs a young and strong cub.

In the evening, Wei Xia took his gift and went to Kobe's home - the top of the Baobaishan community.

It can be said that Kobe's home is also a mansion.

Wei Xia's home is also a mansion.

Any NBA player who can sign a mid-level contract can afford a luxury house, but the configuration is different.

Outside Kobe's mansion, there are mountains, waters and streams, as well as some murals that cater to Mr. Bryant's artistic pursuit.

On the contrary, the mansion is the least important component, what is important is the nearby scenery.

Every time Wei Xia comes here, he will feel a little bit of comparison, for example, he will live in a similar place in the future, but after calming down, he will reflect on himself.

why?Why do you have to be like Kobe?
He parked the car and met Vaughan Weaver in the parking lot.

He's in the car with a model he got at a party a while ago.

Looking at the vibrating car, Wei Xia asked from a distance: "Are you doing something that is not suitable for me to see?"

Even if you want to do it, find a place where no one is around, Sibaer!

"Don't worry, I will settle the battle quickly and quietly." Weaver said excitedly.

"It's impossible to be quiet." Wei Xia smiled connotatively, "But I believe you will make a quick decision."

What kind of person would play car vibes in someone else's parking lot?
"Take your time, I'll go first." Wei Xia said kindly.

"See you!" Weaver yelled.

Is this my classmate?Wei Xia thought helplessly, he didn't look like a normal person.

Kobe's party invited many people.

There are players and coaching staff, but there is no family.

Wescha met Andrew Bynum, Lamar Odom, Luke Walton, Devon George, Brian Shaw, Gary Vitti, Phil Jackson and some people Wescha didn't know.

No, Wei Xia knew at least one of them.

As the only Asian face at the party besides Wei Xia, she was as dazzling as a star, and she didn't even need to mention her face that made many women present feel ashamed. Just the dark suspenders on her made people unable to blink.

Elaine Trovis, she's here too.

"Long time no see." In fact, it was only about two weeks.

Trovis smiled and asked, "Have you reconciled with your girlfriend?"

"No, we are completely finished." Wei Xia tried to show calmness and calmness, which was difficult.

"It's a pity, that's her loss." Trovis raised his glass softly, "Congratulations to you for being single again."

The reason why it is only 4000 words is because many paragraphs have been deleted.I decided to skip the next chapter daily, just like I said on the day it was put on the shelves, if even I think it’s unnecessary to post this chapter, I’ll skip it, um, so don’t ask me where 332 and 333 went.
