Legend of Tomorrow
Chapter 923 [Let me teach you how to win the championship! 】
As long as Austin sustains one more movie, it doesn't matter if his net worth rises and he makes two bad movies next. Guo Xu has already helped him plan his future. If everything goes well, he will become a big-name movie star and change his destiny will start this year.
The key to everything is that Guo Xu found Chris Pratt to play the leading role.
As long as he plays Teddy Bear, Pratt will be stereotyped as a comedian. After receiving high box office, he will definitely appear in the sequel in the future. During this period, if he makes another movie that does well at the box office, his salary will increase significantly.
This creates a butterfly effect. Pratt, whose net worth has increased, is likely to miss the role that made him famous, Star-Lord, and then miss the two movies Jurassic World 1 and 2 with higher box office.
Pratt didn't know that he would suddenly seize an opportunity to become famous in the future. Now he is a funny fat guy. Tomorrow, the company will ask him to play the leading role. He will be so happy that he can't sleep.
Guo Xu plans to help Austin steal Pratt's opportunity, and he is very likely to do well in the role. Austin is a very funny person in life. As an actor like him who has proven his box office appeal, as long as he auditions and is willing to lower his salary appropriately, Marvel will definitely consider him.
Guardians of the Galaxy is not a big IP, and the producers must be afraid of selling it to the public. Austin's popularity will be an insurance policy and can attract many fans to the theater.
He can also compete in the future Jurassic World. He can just grow his beard to look less baby-faced. It doesn't matter if he doesn't win. One Marvel role will last him a lifetime.
Guo Xu is very interesting to his friends, and he may not have cheated Pratt, and he may be able to save his marriage.
Anna Faris filed for divorce first, found a new boyfriend first, and the child is with Pratt. It is said that the reason for the divorce was that she liked him when he was fat, and Pratt lost weight and no longer felt anything.
In July, the NBA free market opened.
Many teams have free cap space this year, as the number of big-name players on the free market is the largest in the past 20 years.
Amare Stoudemire became the first big name to be poached. The Knicks offered him a five-year maximum salary contract with a player option in the fourth year.
Stoudemire did not hesitate and directly agreed to the offer, and the Suns did not choose to match it.
Bryan really wanted to sign and trade, or simply keep Stoudemire, but they couldn't do that. The league had had enough of Guo Xu and Stoudemire playing pick-and-rolls and forced them to separate. Moreover, the Suns don't need the Knicks players. If they want draft picks, the other side won't give them to them, so it's really difficult to change them.
It would be difficult for other teams that want Stoudemire to sign and trade.
Basically there is salary space. If Stoudemire is sent to a small city team, then the two sides will become enemies, and it is better to get together and break up.
The Knicks' number one target is actually LeBron James, but James said he wanted to see the Knicks' trading situation before making a decision. He didn't sign first. He wanted to sign first and then trade.
James just wants to stay together and be famous. If he leaves directly, the Cavaliers management and hometown elders will become enemies with him.
And just Stoudemire and James are not enough. He hopes that the Knicks can trade a few people and replace them with an All-Star to form the Big Three, so that he can be sure to lead the team to compete for the championship.
Unlike the Heat's Big Three, the Knicks neither have James' brother Wade nor have they poached Bosh, which is more embarrassing. How can they say they are playing brother basketball?
James has not yet been able to clearly instruct the Knicks manager to replace Wade with the team. Last season, the Heat had the second best record in the Eastern Conference. Although they were eliminated by the Celtics 3-4, they could not think of any way to directly replace Wade. impossible.
Suddenly, rumors were flying all over the media. Some said that James was about to join the Knicks, some said that James was inspecting the Lakers, and some said that the Cavaliers were preparing to poach Wade in order to keep James.
Stoudemire became distressed. He didn't want to be teammates with James.
James plays as an organization forward and must attack with the ball. With his main tactic in the Knicks, it is impossible to use a pick-and-roll attack. The two of them will be useless together. Stoudemire, who needs more tactical coordination, is at a disadvantage. He hopes the Knicks can use the remaining salary space to dig a point guard star.
Stoudemire's worries are normal. As soon as Anthony joined the Knicks in his previous life, Stoudemire could no longer play. He was also a star who had to hold the ball and attack in order to exert his power.
The most troublesome thing is that James is more popular than Stoudemire. If he joins, Stoudemire will probably be the second boss again, and the commercial value will not be improved.
Stoudemire contacted Guo Xu online and asked: Jason, if I don't want to team up with James, is there any way to prevent him from joining? I definitely can't tell the management about this.
Xiaosi likes to consult Guo Xu when he has no idea, and he has developed a habit. The elder brother always has a way.
Sure enough, this time was no exception. How could Guo Xu mistreat his brother? He knows what Stoudemire wants when he goes to the Knicks.
Guo Xu replied: It's very simple. Don't tell the management that you don't like James. On the contrary, you should welcome him to join when you are interviewed by the media. Reporters will probably ask you for a message about his joining, so just shout from a distance. Just say a word...
When Xiaosi saw Guo Xu's words, he savored it for a while and then smiled and replied: I understand, thank you.
The press conference for Stoudemire's joining has already been held. It doesn't matter. He moved to New York in advance. The media immediately conducted an exclusive interview with him and invited him to do a program.
The host quickly asked about the topic of James joining, saying that the Knicks still have salary space to dig another star, and can even form the Big Three through trades. Asked Stoudemire what he thought?
Stoudemire replied: I never interfere with the management's work. It was like this when I was in the Suns. No matter who my teammates are, I will try my best to cooperate with them.
There are rumors that James may join the Knicks. What do you think?
Stoudemire smiled and said: He is a very good star. We have met several times in the Finals. It would be great if he could come. LeBron, don't hesitate, join the Knicks and let me teach you how. Win the championship!”
On the surface, this is to welcome the other party, but in fact he is using this method to establish his status as the boss.
Stoudemire is fully qualified to say this. He has six championships and James has zero championships. Isn't it him who taught James to win the championship?
If he has a strong self-esteem and is unwilling to be the second-in-command, and even fans are unwilling to discuss him as the second-in-command, will James still come to the Knicks?
This sentence is a textbook way to drive people away. In Guo Xu's previous life in 2013, Kobe Bryant had a tough attitude and wanted to retain Warcraft Howard, so he said this classic saying. Then Howard turned around and joined the Rockets, and the Lakers never made the playoffs again.
Stoudemire's remarks immediately made the news. The media didn't think there was anything wrong with this remark. They only thought Stoudemire wanted to win over James. James was stuck in a dilemma by this sentence and could only remain silent.
He was completely unable to reply to Stoudemire's good intentions. If Decision 1 was announced at this time and he announced to join the Knicks, reporters would definitely ask him who is the boss of the team. How would he answer?
Deny Stoudemire? That would make him look very classless. His six crowns are not as good as your four crowns?
If I am sure of Stoudemire, how can I go to the Knicks to be his little brother when I am so full?
Only by keeping silent can James maintain his status as a superstar. When fans say he is going to be Stoudemire's little brother, he can pretend not to know anything, as if he has never considered the Knicks.
Damn it, my goal is the Knicks...()
