Chapter 50 Durex

The Lakers have three days off before their next game.

The league is still relatively humane, and you will have a rest time after five consecutive aways, otherwise the players will really be overwhelmed.

In the next period of time, the Lakers' schedule will not be so intensive, and it will be relatively relaxed.

Of course, Ye Heping continued to train hard.

As a rookie in professional basketball, only sweat can make Ye Heping integrate into it faster.

Ye Heping's only worry is that the basketball talent tree has no movement, no new tasks have been opened, and there are no new talents, as if it has disappeared.

The three days passed quickly. On November 11, the Lakers fought the Clippers. This was a Los Angeles city derby.

This year's Clippers played very well, starting with 5 wins and 3 losses, and they seem to be getting rid of the weak team.

Starting Five: Elton Brand, Corey Maggette, Bobby Simmons, Mark Jarich, Chris Kaman.

Coupled with powerful substitutes such as Wilcox, Livingston, Kiddels, Rebrascia, Kenny Anderson, etc., the Clippers' paper strength is even stronger than the Lakers.

The Staples Center is crowded with people, and things like the city derby are still very topical.

Ye Heping keenly noticed that there were many yellow-skinned fans among the fans, holding up the KT board with their names written on it.

Obviously, these fans came from Chongye Heping.

Los Angeles was originally a Chinese-inhabited area with a population of more than 300 million. Immigrants totaled 11.2%, and Chinese accounted for 7.1%.

The game was very interesting. The two teams started off against each other, and the shooting percentage was extremely high, which made the fans climax.

In the first quarter of the game, the two teams scored a high score of 29:27.

In other words, neither team played defense.

But in the second quarter, Ye Heping and Kobe were on the court at the same time, which became the key point of the turning point of the game.

The two-man defense directly froze the Clippers' first and second scoring points Maggette and Brand.

Facts have proved that the Clippers' magnificent record of 5 wins and 3 losses is completely puffy, and their strength is much worse, mainly because their opponents in the early stage are relatively weak.

The Lakers are not good at fighting tough battles, and this Clippers are even worse.

In the end, 103:89, the Lakers won the city derby.

马盖蒂24分5篮板、西蒙斯23分8篮板4助攻，维尔考克斯14分9篮板，布兰德14分11篮板……

Lakers here:

科比23分6篮板11助攻5抢断，阿特金斯17分7助攻，米姆15分5篮板，巴特勒14分，奥多姆11分6篮板，叶和平10分8篮板2助攻3抢断6盖帽……

8 rebounds, 3 steals, and 6 blocks, all of which created new career highs for Ye Heping.

……

after the game.

Ye Heping packed up his things and prepared to take Tao Jia home with him.

At this moment, a staff member came to inform that the general manager Kupchak wanted to see Ye Heping.

Ye Heping didn't dare to neglect, and hurried to report.

To Ye Heping's surprise, there was not one person in Kupchak's room, but three people were waiting for him, including a Chinese in his early 50s.

"Ye, take it easy, this is just a small private party."

Kupchak patted Ye Heping on the shoulder and said.

He was still reluctant to spend 20 US dollars to sign Ye Heping.

But now, Kupchak laughs when he thinks about it.

It might be the best deal he's ever done in his life.

$20 to sign a promising super defender.

The only thing that makes Kupchak regret is that he didn't sign with Ye Heping for a few more years.

It can be predicted how many teams Ye Heping will be favored by the end of this season. There is no shortage of potential rookies in this league, but there is a lack of 2D players like Ye Heping.

Without 300 million US dollars, it is impossible to win Ye Heping again, and there will be even more.

What's more, what Ye Heping brings is not only his help to the strength of the team, but also an increase in the income of the Lakers.

During this period of time, Ye Heping's No. 24 jersey has already ranked third in sales for the Lakers, second only to Kobe and Odom.

In addition, in the home game, the number of Chinese fans is increasing, which is obviously aimed at Ye Heping.

If you consider the Chinese market, the benefits the Lakers get can hardly be valued.

So Kupchak has made up his mind to keep Ye Heping.

Whether it's for the team's record or for the club's income.

Therefore, looking at Ye Heping now is like looking at a piece of treasure, and he loves it very much.

"Ye, this one is Mr. Huang Xinxiang. He is the richest man in Los Angeles and the richest doctor in the world."

Kupchak first introduced Chinese men in their early 50s.

"Ye, hello. I'm your fan. I like your playing style. Face up to difficulties and go where there are difficulties!"

Huang Xinxiang speaks awkward Chinese, which seems to be new, but it is very friendly to hear such a voice in the United States.

He took the initiative to stretch out his hands, which is very rare for a rich man of his level.

"Hello, long-awaited name!"

Ye Heping was a little panicked, and quickly reached out to shake hands.

The richest man in Los Angeles is definitely a big shot. Ye Heping has never seen him in his previous life.

But this long-respected name is really not a polite word, Ye Heping knew Huang Xinxiang's name in his previous life.

The richest man in Los Angeles, the richest Chinese in the United States, and the richest doctor in the world, these titles are still very famous.

Huang Xinxiang is a person with mixed reputation and reputation. He devoted himself to the development of cancer drugs and made great contributions to the cause of human anti-cancer. He is also very active in various charitable causes and has donated a large amount of money.

But there are many black spots in his life, brothers turning against each other, business fraud, investment shady... Of course these are all messages, it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false.

However, what Ye Heping admires most about Huang Xinxiang is that he is a bit like the "Big Bird" Bird of the NBA.

He likes to brag and do the impossible, but most of them can do it.

He looks low-key, but there is a tiger hidden in his heart.

The heart has the Tigers, fine sniffing the rose.

"This is the head of the US market for sex products under the British SSL Group...Kevin Black."

Kupchak went on to introduce another person.

Sex products?
Ye Heping was a little confused, how could the Lakers have something to do with sex products?
"Hahaha."

Kevin Black smiled: "Kup's words are too complicated. To put it simply, I am the North American director of Durex."

"I initiated this party. Both Kupu and Huang are my friends. I want to meet you."

Kevin is so straight, he can see the mountain when he opens the door, without twists and turns.

Ye Heping really likes this kind of person, the businessman's atmosphere is very light, which makes people feel very comfortable.

But Ye Heping is still a little confused, the person in charge of Durex wants to see me?

"I want to invite you to be our North American spokesperson for Durex!"
