Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 235 [The Birth of an Actor Season 3]

Guo Xu decided to make his last stop in Beijing in order to go to the Great Wall to meet Kobe Bryant.

On August 11, Kobe will climb the Mutianyu Great Wall in Beijing. He was invited by Adidas to coach the 2001 Adidas Street Basketball Challenge in Beijing.

During the three-day trip, Kobe first participated in a basketball training camp and finally climbed the Great Wall to show off his skills.

Guo Xu arrived two days in advance and did not meet Kobe. He planned to give him a surprise. The task of confirming Kobe's schedule was given to Meghan, who texted Vanessa.

Not long after their wedding, Kobe didn't want to leave his wife at home, so Vanessa also came to China with him.

Guo Xu has already made a plan. After his identity is exposed, he will definitely participate in activities in China. Then Meghan will return to Los Angeles with Kobe and Vanessa first, and he will go back later.

This way, the media won't be able to interview Meghan, and luckily no one will notice her, so there won't be any controversy. Guo Xu's interaction with Chinese fans can also make the fans happy.

After getting up this morning, Guo Xu started putting on makeup in the hotel, putting on a gray wig, a white beard, a fake face, etc. After struggling for half an hour, Claire was very satisfied with her work.

Guo Xu wore a pair of prescription glasses and long-sleeved sportswear. He hunched over to the hotel lobby and greeted Megan and others in English. No one recognized him.

Then he walked up to Meghan and whispered in his usual tone: Come here and carry the bag, or you will regret it.

Megan jumped up in fright. After listening to Claire’s explanation, she couldn’t laugh or cry. You put on makeup like this, are you just trying to scare me?

What's the point of scaring you? If you want to scare, just scare Kobe. Today I'm going to leave a legend about the old Chinese hooker on the Great Wall. Uh-huh-huh.

Guo Xu smiled like Zeng Xiaoxian, and Megan felt that there must be nothing good going on. He would only be serious when facing the media. He usually likes to play pranks, and he is as childish as Ao Pang.

As a reborn person, Guo Xu has a huge mind. What he has to do is simple, pretend to be an old man and challenge Kobe Bryant.

In Guo Xu's previous life, Uncle Drew was a creative commercial film shot by point guard star Kyrie Irving for Pepsi Zero beverage in 2012. In the film, Irving pretended to be a white-bearded Uncle Drew and swept through the street basketball courts.

There were 4 commercials in total, the second one featured Kevin Love, and the third one invited Nate Robinson.

and women’s basketball star Maya Moore. The fourth part invited Ray Allen and Baron Davis to join.

This series of commercials was loved by fans and was made into a major movie in 2018. In addition to Irving, Nate Robinson, Reggie Miller, O'Neal and others also participated, earning more than 50 million US dollars at the box office.

Guo Xu brought this idea forward, taking other people's path and leaving others with nowhere to go.

Moreover, Irving pretended to be an old man and just went to the street court to torture amateur rookies. How could he attract attention when he PKed Kobe?

After hearing that Bryant was coming to Beijing, fans and the media took notice, forcing the organizers to strengthen their bodyguards, limit the number of interviews, and keep Bryant's whereabouts secret.

Despite this, some well-informed fans still arrived at the Mutianyu Great Wall early, carrying huge posters of Kobe Bryant and looking forward to it on the beacon tower.

At 9:30, when the host announced that Kobe was about to arrive, the crowd began to riot. A female fan who was squeezed into the back row kept begging Gary Voss in front: Can you please turn sideways? I can't see. arrive.

Man, let her come to the front. Just pay attention in the back. You can see it anyway. Guo Xu arrived more than an hour early and was holding a poster of Kobe in the front row pretending to be a fan. He turned to the bodyguard Gary and said English said with a smile.

Anyway, there were a lot of security guards today, and Guo Xu wasn't really an old man. Gary was not afraid that something might happen to him, so he gave up his position to the female student and moved a little further back. Being a bodyguard for such a star makes him laugh so hard. He has laughed more times in the past month than in half his life.

Uncle, thank you. You speak English very well. Yuanqi girl, who has a bit of dark skin and looks like a sports student, said with a smile.

I have practiced English for more than ten years, which is more convenient when I go abroad. Guo Xu said with a smile.

You are also a Komi at such an old age? Yuanqi Mei looked at the poster in his hand and asked curiously.

Give it to you. Guo Xu handed the poster signed with his name to Yuanqi girl, smoothed his beard, and said slowly: What's weird about this? The Lakers last season I haven't missed a single game (played), but I like Jason Guo better than Kobe.

The girl Yuanqi nodded, looking like a little fangirl: I like him very much too, Jason Guo is so handsome.

Hahahahaha. Yuanqi girl was on the left side of Guo Xu, and on his right was the female bodyguard Zhao Qi. After hearing the conversation between the two, she couldn't help but laughed like crazy.

Surrounded by bodyguards, Kobe and his wife Vanessa appeared at the Great Wall together with a hairball and a mustache. Wearing a T-shirt with the words He is not a true man until he reaches the Great Wall printed on it, baggy gray sports shorts, and the latest sneakers named after him, he smiled and waved to the fans who chanted his name.

Before Kobe's performance, there was an Adidas Dunk Contest.

After the five young Chinese players participated in the competition, Kobe ran onto the court and high-fived and patted each player on the shoulder. It was a bit like what he did with his teammates when he was in the Lakers. The 23-year-old Kobe was about the same age as these college students, but his status There was so much difference that all five of them were very excited and wanted to ask for autographs and photos immediately.

After the dunk contest started, Kobe, as a judge, was meticulous. In addition to scoring, he also didn't forget to give a few pointers.

He suggested that Lu Zhiwen in Guangzhou spread his legs wider in the air, so that the movements would be more stretched and the audience would enjoy watching them more.

Seeing Shenyang's Wang Wei perform a masked dunk in an ingenious way. After the mask, he looked like a bank robber. Kobe said a little shyly: This action does not exist in the NBA.

After the dunk contest ended, Kobe was eager to compete. He walked onto the court and said, My feelings are burning. I want to fly over the Great Wall.

Although he did not do any preparation activities, Kobe was far better than amateurs when he took the shot. He performed stunts such as pull-bar dunks, crotch-switching dunks, and one-handed windmill dunks. These were his signature moves when he won the NBA Slam Dunk Contest. This made all the fans on the Great Wall chant his name in unison.

Kobe licked his fingers, clapped his hands, and covered one ear to listen to the cheers of the fans, which were all his habitual actions in the NBA.

He picked up the microphone and exclaimed: It's so exciting. I've never played ball at such a high place. It's great to dunk on the famous Great Wall!

The Chinese host announced that the event has entered the next stage. Kobe will challenge a fan in a bullfight. The candidate will be pointed out by Kobe's wife Vanessa.

At this time, no one noticed Megan standing behind Kobe’s tall white bodyguard. While Kobe was sitting in the seat as a judge, Megan brought photographers Kevin and Vanessa to meet and briefly told them that they were forming a group. About traveling to China.

After knowing that Guo Xu was going to pretend to be an old man and challenge Kobe in a duel, Vanessa smiled so hard that both rows of her teeth were exposed. She already knew who she was going to choose.
