Legend of Tomorrow

Chapter 735 [Legendary Jason, Mr. Nike]

After reading the news, Guo Xu felt that if Kobe continued like this, he might leave the Lakers in the future.

In fact, in Guo Xu's previous life, one man, one city, and the extremely loyal Kobe almost left the Lakers.

In 2007, Kobe vetoed the Lakers' trade proposal to send him to Detroit because he looked down on the Pistons. The Pistons' bargaining chips are Richard Hamilton, Tayshaun Prince and draft picks.

That summer, the Lakers also had in-depth negotiations with Bryant's favorite Bulls. However, because the other party refused to send forward Luol Deng, the Lakers insisted on the all-around small forward who was in his prime. In the end, the two fell apart and Kobe had no choice but to stay.

Kobe may not have imagined at the time that it didn't take long for the Lakers to complete a wonderful deal, acquiring Pau Gasol from Memphis, who helped him win two consecutive NBA championships in 2009 and 2010.

Nowadays, there are not many fans who support Kobe on the Internet because he has had internal conflicts with his teammates more than once and has obvious personality problems.

Fans can tolerate Jordan's shortcomings in eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling, because Jordan created his own era and dominated the league.

Kobe, whose peak true shooting percentage was less than 60% and ranked third in the league in efficiency, did not have his own era. He only dominated Kemei. Even if he had 35.4 points in his previous life, it would have been fatal without the last two championships. The evaluation is completely different.

Kobe was devastated after reading the comments from online fans, such as If Bogut was in the Suns, he would definitely not be in this situation. If Odom partners with Jason Guo, the Suns will win and win the championship.

If those two people join the Suns, they will indeed do better, because Guo Xu will never play mainly from behind and will not overlap with the inside players. He only feeds the inside players, and he has cooperated with many inside players. No one dislikes him.

After defeating the Lakers, the Suns went to Sacramento and easily defeated the Kings in the away game.

Guo Xu is very good at torturing the Kings. If Bibby defends alone for the whole game, he can score 100 points in a game. After attracting double-teams, he distributes the ball to his teammates and enters garbage time at halftime.

It was too easy to win, and Guo Xu also had a headache. His statistics this year will definitely not be high, which made him uncomfortable after he was used to playing hard last season.

Fans of other stars like to use how many points their idol scores in the final quarter, and his ability to hit key shots and kills to prove that his idol has a big heart and outstanding strength. Guo Xuze is almost insulated from the term key ball. The Suns have no key goals in the regular season. The current king of the Suns in the final quarter is Anthony Parker. He is very good at leading the bench and often plays in garbage time.

After 22 consecutive victories, the Suns and company went to Los Angeles.

Away game against the Clippers.

This year the Clippers' record has dropped sharply and they will not be able to make the playoffs. Everyone knows that there is no suspense in this game. The coaching staff led by D'Antoni did not arrange training and allowed the players to move freely during the holidays.

Guo Xu took Megan Fox and contacted friends Robert Smith, Britney, Austin Knicks and others to have lunch together. This time he also called a friend who was famous in celebrity circles but kept a low profile.

Austin had never seen this person before, so Guo Xu introduced: This is the assistant director of your new movie, Travis Knight.

The two shook hands vigorously, and Austin smiled in disbelief and asked, Are you that Travis? I'm not admitting my mistake, right?

Well, I'm that Travis. Knight said with a wry smile, I'm here to learn how to make movies with Jason.

Knight is a little embarrassed. He is 8 years older than Guo Xu. His family background is even more terrifying, but his achievements are not even one-tenth of Guo Xu's.

Guo Xu smiled and said: Don't say that, we are just playing together and making some money while playing.

Travis's father, Phil Knight, is the boss of Nike. He is one of the world's top rich second generation, but his name is rarely mentioned in the media and magazines. He is a typical example of someone who is not doing his job properly.

Guo Xu's social circle is getting wider and wider. He has often engaged in business activities after signing a contract with Nike. In recent years, sneakers have been selling like hotcakes. Nike boss Phil Knight has invited him to attend the company's annual meetings many times and personally came forward to win over him. Have a good relationship with him.

After Guo Xu renewed his contract with a high salary this time, Phil promised to give him some shares of Nike in the future and strive to build the Legend Jason high-end brand. Among the previous star-specific logos, only Michael Jordan’s “air jordan” could grow up and become Nike’s high-end brand.

Phil hopes that Guo Xu and his son Travis will move around more and stop him from focusing on weird things.

Guo Xu had heard of Travis in his previous life, and the Nike Master was definitely a weirdo among the rich second generation. He did not want to inherit the family fortune and did not like Nike. After more than ten years of stop-motion animation, he suddenly switched to the field of commercial films and served as the director of the independent film Bumblebee in the Transformers series.

Guo Xu didn't see the movie released, but he only knew that the trailer was pretty good, the robot shape was restored to the animation, and the heroine was a bit ugly.

Judging from Taravis' animation achievements, his strengths are that he is good at telling stories and paying attention to the emotions of characters. His weakness is that he has no business acumen. To put it bluntly, he is just a young man who always wants to find some value in life.

Literary youth firstly love freedom, secondly have strong individualism, and thirdly have romantic feelings. Travis has all these qualities. He likes beautiful things, is a bit neurotic and melancholic. He believes that the minority is more sacred than the majority, that failure is more noble than success, and that money and success are vulgar things.

Therefore, after graduating from high school, Travis rejected Stanford University, put on a country killer look and released a rap record, which was eventually sold for US$210,000, of which US$200,000 was purchased secretly by his father. of. After hearing the news, Travis not only failed to thank his father, but also felt humiliated and quit the entertainment industry in anger.

Afterwards, he was admitted to an ordinary state university, and after hanging around for a few years, he joined Will Vinton's animation studio. He started as a handyman intern and began to concentrate on stop-motion animation.

As the studio encountered a financial crisis, Knight Sr. continued to inject capital into the animation studio, from US$3 million to US$5 million, and then to US$18 million to acquire this dead-end place and let his son be the CEO.

18 million is just a small sum of money to old Knight, he can throw it away casually without fear of compensation. In this way, he expressed his love and support for his son. Travis was so angry that he had a loud quarrel with his father and even wanted to sever the relationship between father and son.

The turning point in the relationship between father and son came in 2004, when the eldest son died of a heart attack while diving while doing charity activities. Old Knight was severely hit mentally, and Taravis became the sole heir to the Nike empire.

Old Knight still chooses to support his son's dream. After all, he founded Nike with this personality. He believes that this is the spirit of Nike.

Well, the spirit of Nike is neurosis, and the old man likes Guo Xu because of this. He thinks that this kind of person who dares to do whatever he wants is really cool. The difference is that Guo Xu did it well, but his son didn't.

Travis still had some achievements in his previous life. The animation company produced 5 works in 12 years, and almost every one of them was nominated for an Oscar and received unanimous praise from the industry. However, stop-motion animation is a kind of craftsman spirit and a kind of feeling. It is an industry where slow work is done carefully but it is not profitable.

The studio's twelve years of operation have been a mess. Without the support of old Knight, it would have to close down if it couldn't make one film.

Travis has no idol and is annoyed by Jordan, but he likes Guo Xu because Guo Xu has acted in musicals and made animated movies, and seems to understand his pursuit of art...
