I'm teammates with Kobe

Chapter 82 It's Right to Listen to Kobe
The reporters not only dug up more inside information, but even asked questions in an aggressive manner, as if they had communicated well.

Zen Master was helpless, knowing that someone in the know had disclosed this to the outside world, and he specifically picked them up when they were out playing away games. The purpose was to catch him off guard and make public relations too late.

Being forced to this level, he knew that denying it would be futile, and it would bring more rumors to the team for no reason, disturbing people's mind, so he had no choice but to reply, "Jenny and Jim are not only the two key figures of the Lakers, they are also close friends." Brother and sister, there is no hatred between each other, so Jim has always supported his sister, because there is no infighting between them, only love for each other."

"As for Jenny's two-year guarantee, it is because she is confident that she can bring this team back to the championship, and all of this is for the Lakers, for Old Buss, because of his illness, leave it to the Lakers The team is really running out of time.”

Zen master is full of confidence in the future in words, "We will succeed, there is no doubt about it, so Jenny is not worried about letting herself take risks. It can be said that this team is hers, the first in history. A true female owner of an NBA team has appeared, and in the future, she may also be the first successful female owner. Please believe this!"

Zen Master's words are no different from a bomb, which exploded suddenly on this ordinary night in Dallas. It can be predicted that the degree of shock will definitely shake the entire NBA.

Although he denies infighting, the Lakers management struggle for power has been made public in front of the media.

In this way, the Lakers can be regarded as officially announcing that the era of Jenny has arrived, and at the same time, the haze of the team living under the power of Jr. Buss over the past few years has been swept away.

The darkest hour has passed, the rumors are all broken, and the team has no way to retreat. Only by uniting together can we win the final victory, otherwise it will be doomed again.

Zen master took the initiative to leave the media room after answering these questions. For some reason, he and the Lakers soldiers had never looked forward to returning to Los Angeles and returning to their own territory.

On the bus to the airport, the Zen master couldn't help calling Jenny, "Honey, are you asleep?"

"No, I just watched your game and ended the road trip with a big win, well done!" Jenny said happily on the other end of the phone.

"Then..." Zen Master hesitated and continued, "Then you also saw the press conference after the game?"

"Yes." Jenny's tone was very gentle, "You answered very well! It's not your fault, someone pushed the media to do this, and I already guessed who it was."

"How can you be sure?" Master Zen asked, "After all, many people know about it, and some players have even left the team. Maybe my trade hurt some people's hearts."

Zen master's meaning is obvious. Only a few managements and all the players know about the team's infighting. His successive layoffs and trades have caused some people to be dissatisfied, and then betrayed the news to the media to vent their anger.

Jenny guessed what he was thinking, so she tried to comfort him, "Phil, things are not what you think, maybe it won't be long before I can find out what's wrong with him."

"You mean that person is still on the team?" Zen Master said incredulously, and looked around, but he couldn't guess who leaked the news.

In fact, apart from injuries, the most feared problem for NBA teams is team leaks.No matter what the leaked information is, rumors will arise once it gets out.Because fans and media workers are so eager for news, what kind of grievances between giants, management infighting, player transactions, etc. are the eternal topics they never tire of. When they smell some kind of information, they will publicize it and dig deeper. , The result of this is to hurt the team's chemical reaction.

Because everyone has the nature of watching the excitement, when they eat melons and eat around them, they will naturally doubt the people around them, forming a crisis of trust.

Therefore, no matter what happens in the locker room, you can turn a blind eye to it, but you can’t spread it outside, otherwise you will become the most hated leaker, and everyone will hide from you and keep it from you, and will never say a word to you.

The infighting in the Bass family this time was obviously leaked out, and Zen master's first reaction was to doubt the players around him.

"It will be decided in a few days, you guys come back first." Jenny sent an invitation to Zen Master before hanging up the phone, "The next game day should be 2 days later, Phil, how about giving the players a vacation tomorrow , you accompany me to see Dad, I don’t want the content of the media’s hype to affect his condition. By the way, call Kobe by the way, the old man wants to see him.”

"OK! No problem."

After hanging up the phone, Master Zen simply came to Kobe and said that he would go to the hospital the next day to see the situation of old Buss. After the game, I definitely want to know him.”

"It's all right, you decide." After finishing speaking, the Zen master stood up and announced to everyone that tomorrow will be a day off. Everyone in the car was very tired, and after agreeing sporadically, they all fell asleep.

It was already 12:[-] in the morning when we returned to Los Angeles. After getting off the plane, everyone needed to change into a bus to go back to the training hall of the Toyota Center. Their various luxury cars were all parked there. Find each mother.

Since it was getting late, after everyone left first, Chu Xiao insisted on driving Tracy back home in his own car, and then returned to the villa at No. 73 West [-]st Road.

I didn't forget to do a few sets of waist and abdomen exercises before going to bed.

Lakers owner Jerry Buss was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital due to severe dehydration on July 2012, 7. He underwent surgery in August and was later hospitalized for cancer. He is currently living in Cedars, Los Angeles · Sinai Medical Center.

Cedars-Sinai Medical Center (Cedars-Sinai Medical Center) is located in Beverly Hills, a beautiful and wealthy city in Los Angeles. It was established in 1902 by a local Jewish group. It is a well-known non-profit hospital on the west coast of the United States. The well-known heart transplant center (number one in the number of cases) has been ranked first in the comprehensive medical quality ranking of the Greater Los Angeles area by the National Research Council (NRC) for 19 consecutive years, and ranked first in the USNews & World Report Los Angeles Hospital.

Los Angeles is known as the Spring City of the World. It is surrounded by mountains on three sides and faces the sea on one side. The climate is mild and pleasant. The temperature ranges from 10 degrees to 30 degrees Celsius throughout the year. The livability of the climate is similar to that of Kunming in China.

However, Cedars Senai, which is located in an excellent location, can imagine the degree of comfort, convenience, relaxation and pleasure it brings to patients.

Of course, not everyone can afford to live here.

Chu Xiao arrived at the hospital at the agreed 10:[-] a.m. according to the navigation, and found that it was located on the edge of Beverly Hills and West Hollywood.

He parked the car outdoors, and he could see that both sides of the parking lot were green and delicate lawns, which were as high-quality as those dedicated to golf courses.Tall palm trees are planted around the grassland, and various unknown ornamental vegetation are scattered under the trees, red, pink, and yellow, which appear to be high and low during the embellishment period.

On the third side of the parking lot is the 18-story medical center, and opposite the center is the famous Beverly Shopping Center, which is an overall eight-story building with a full range of brand stores, such as Burbury, Fendi, and Versace , Gucci, Prada, Tiffany, YSL, Coach and MK, etc. are all available, as well as all kinds of food and beverages.

It's like going to the doctor and shopping.

Americans do not have the tradition of bringing gifts when visiting patients in the hospital, because eating is easy to be unhygienic, and bringing flowers and fruits may cause allergies to the other party.

So Chu Xiao swaggered into the lobby on the first floor of the medical center empty-handed. Kobe and Master Zen were still on the way, and while waiting for others, he walked around the lobby.

Who would have thought that this hospital even had an art museum.Chu Xiao learned from the introduction in the hall that this museum is known as the largest art gallery west of the Mississippi River, and it has collected more than 11 pieces of art treasures since ancient Egypt: masterpieces of European masters, excellent collections of Asian art (Chinese , India, Nepal, Korea, Japan, etc.), a large number of artworks from North and South America, famous artworks, marginalized modern artworks...the collection is quite rich.

Just when Chu Xiao was dumbfounded, Kobe arrived with Master Zen and Jenny.

"Hello President! Hello Coach! Hello Kobe!" Chu Xiao immediately rushed forward to say hello.

"Oh, Chu Xiao, you performed so well last night, let me give you a hug." Jenny Bass gave him a warm hug, and then patted him on the shoulder as encouragement.

Jenny led the way with Zen Master, while Kobe put his arms around Chu Xiao and said, "President? Do you want to be so reserved! I will call her Jenny from now on, that's the way to go."

"Uh, it's not good..." Chu Xiao's upbringing did not allow him to call the leader by his name directly.

But Jenny heard it, she turned her head and smiled, "Listen to Kobe, that's right."

"Okay, Jenny." Chu Xiao changed quickly.

"Good!" Jenny turned her head and continued to lead the way, then entered the elevator and pressed the number 18.

This is a pure glass elevator. When you go up, you can see the grass under your feet and the scenery in the distance, which is refreshing.

What is even more surprising is that after getting out of the elevator, smiling faces can be seen everywhere, rather than the depression caused by the disease, it looks very positive and sunny.

The hospital has also put a lot of thought into the space design, not the kind of design where there are wards on both sides of an aisle, but like a museum with different spaces and vegetation, how people walk, how things are transported, how to coordinate between departments... ...are carefully planned, the space is large, clean and comfortable, and each area has a sun room, which seems to allow patients to enjoy the sun and forget their pain.
