This Forward is Not Serious

Chapter 101 Conscience Advocate!

Following Lin Ying's three-pointer, the domestic fans immediately climaxed.

Because Lin Ying scored his 10th point tonight!

Yi Jianlian just set the record for a Chinese player's NBA debut yesterday, but it only lasted for a day before being broken by Lin Ying!

And, the game isn't over yet!

However, the higher the tide of domestic fans, the more frustrated the Lakers fans will be.

If only Kupchak tried harder!

On the court, the Lakers started to run into trouble.

Because both Lin Ying and Smith can pass the ball, it will be more difficult for them to defend two people at the same time.

Especially Lin Ying, he not only knows how to pass on Smith.

Kleiza patted his stomach and burped after eating the two flying pancakes he fed!

Four and a half minutes into the fourth quarter, the score was 108-98.

The Nuggets lead the Lakers by 10 points!

That is, during this period, the two sides began to replace the main force for the final decisive battle.

Lin Ying also ended her NBA debut.

When he left the court, not only the Chinese fans on the scene, but also many Lakers fans applauded him.

Those who perform well earn the respect of their opponents.

He played 18.5 minutes tonight, contributed 12 points, 6 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 steals, 1 block, 1 turnover, 2 fouls, 5 of 7 shots, 2 of 3 three-pointers, perfect performance!

The only regret is that he didn't get a free throw opportunity, otherwise the score could go further.

Still, he's good enough compared to the lottery picks who have finished their games.

Noah scored 1 of 6 in 15 minutes, 3 points, 5 rebounds and 5 fouls; Brewer scored 1 of 4 in 14 minutes, 2 points, 4 rebounds and 2 fouls; Al Thornton scored 2 of 6 in 18 minutes, 5 points, 3 rebounds and 2 fouls; Yi Jianlian 9 points, 3 rebounds and 6 fouls.

The remaining Julian Wright, Thaddeus Young, Conley, and Brandon Wright have no chance to play!

Durant?

The Sonics have yet to make their debut!

The game was not over yet, so Lin Ying could only sit on the bench and watch the match.

This feeling cannot be said to be the same as when I first entered the league when I played 2K, I can only say it is exactly the same.

The only difference is that you can't fast-forward to the end.

The last quarter of the game was more flat than expected.

Kobe didn't feel very good in the last quarter, and I don't know if it was too much physical exertion, and he was a little impatient.

Facts have proved that even for Kobe, it is difficult to play a whole game of offense and defense in the NBA.

Of course, the most terrible thing is that no one can stand up to help Kobe share the pressure at this time.

Odom is more than icing on the cake, but not enough.

In the end, the Nuggets beat the Lakers 125-111 to win a good start by virtue of their outstanding performance in the fourth quarter.

In terms of statistics, the Nuggets: Iverson scored a team-high 35 points and 12 assists on 12 of 19 shots, Anthony scored 23 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists on 9 of 30 shots, Martin scored 18 points and 7 rebounds, Nene scored 8 points and 12 rebounds , JR Smith 18 points and 3 assists, Lin Ying 12 points and 6 rebounds, Kleiza 5 points and 3 rebounds, Najera 3 points and 7 rebounds.

Lakers: Kobe made 12 of 32 shots and scored a game-high 47 points, 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 5 turnovers. Lamar Odom scored 15 points, 7 rebounds and 7 assists. Farmar scored 12 points and 3 assists. Radmanovic scored 11 points.

After the game, Lin Ying went back to the locker room with her teammates.

Just after taking a shower, O'Connor came over and called him. It turned out that Carl was going to bring him to the press conference.

This wave is love!

Although Lin Ying performed well, it was difficult to get his turn in normal rounds.

Anthony probably didn't want to go, so there were only Iverson and Lin Ying.

Lin Ying quickly changed her clothes, took out the spare sneakers from the closet, and then set off with Iverson.

Iverson put on a hat, a large gold chain, and a watch.

Lin Ying almost blurted out when she saw it.

A small watch with a big gold chain, Michelle Ice City is just fine...

Your sneakers, imported?

ah?

After leaving the locker room, Iverson couldn't help asking Lin Ying.

Lin Ying didn't react for a moment.

Your sneakers.

Iverson repeated it again.

He has seen many brands of sneakers, including Peak from China.

But he had never seen what Lin Ying wore on his feet.

Only then did Lin Ying understand.

His signing with Anta caused a sensation in China, but there were almost no reports in the United States.

It's very simple, the Nike Alliance, there is no way to report on Adidas Reebok, so it doesn't give you the opportunity to enter other shoes.

Yes, Chinese.

Lin Ying replied with a smile.

Isn't it imported from China to Americans?

Good mark.

Iverson finally gave a comment.

Thanks.

Marks are actually quite important.

If you don't believe me, go and exchange the Mercedes-Benz and Buick, and you will find that it is not the car that looks good, but the logo.

When we arrived at the press conference, Karl was already sitting there.

The post-game interviews of the NBA are more diverse than those of the NCAA.

When Lin Ying took a shower, some reporters with good relations with the team actually went to the locker room to interview.

The only difference is that you can't bring video equipment in, but you can take pictures at the press conference now.

As soon as the press conference began, Iverson became the focus of reporters' questions.

Before joining the Nuggets, Iverson was still the league's scoring leader, averaging 31.2 points per game, but only 24.8 points to the Nuggets last season.

Although scoring has a lot to do with shooting rights, it can be seen that Iverson is still in the state.

But he scored 35 points at the beginning of the new season, and his shooting percentage was not as good as Iverson's.

The fans were naturally surprised.

For example: Are you training normally?

Iverson has been asked this question almost every night since Training Memes came out.

So much so that once a friend passed away, the famous scene where he said more than 20 times of training after the game was born.

But winning plus personal performance, he naturally replied with a smile.

Yes, I also practiced with Lin.

Let's play tricks together!

And it's not the first time he's played.

The questions from Iverson's side went about the same, and finally it was Lin Ying's turn.

The steal against Bryant was the focus of questions.

I was lucky. Kobe's physical fitness declined at that time, and the defensive pressure given by JR was also large enough.

Lin Ying still behaved modestly.

There is no harm in being a rookie with a low profile, and a high profile can easily become a target of public criticism.

This also satisfies the reporter.

Because the Lakers just finished the post-game interview before this, Kobe also praised Lin Ying's performance.

In addition to this, the reporter asked some other questions one after another, such as the combination performance of him and Smith, the improvement of his ball-handling skills and so on.

But in general, because of his limited playing time, there are not many things he can ask.

Moreover, the NBA has press conferences every day, and most of the reporters' questions are relatively formulaic.

This is why players sometimes bring their children to the scene, it is really boring.

At the end, a reporter from TNT asked an interesting question.

I saw that you signed an endorsement contract with a brand called 'Anta', but why did you wear Tmac-3 when you competed?

Finally a reporter asked this!

Lin Ying was very happy when she heard this.

When signing the contract with Anta, Anta said that he was allowed to wear any other shoes before designing quality shoes for him.

So what shoes to wear becomes a question worth studying.

Because no matter who you wear, you are advertising for your competitors!

And if you wear too much, it will give people the illusion that you are endorsing other brands.

So how to find a way to attract the attention of the outside world to Anta is what he must think about as a spokesperson.

After all, Anta had bet so much on him, it would be unkind for him not to take the initiative to do something.

After much deliberation, the only thing that can be used is the reporter.

So he chose a pair of the most coquettish sneakers at the moment, the Tmac-3.

Why do you say it is the most coquettish?

Because this is a mandarin duck shoe, the left foot is red and the right foot is basket, it is difficult not to be noticed.

The reporter's attention will be attracted by his shoes, and naturally some reporters will check whether he has signed a contract with Adidas.

Check if it is not, and then check Anta, can your little head not take a small question mark?

Originally, Lin Ying wanted to show off the Anta shoes when the reporters in the locker room asked questions, but Karl unexpectedly dragged him to the press conference in the first game.

This wave of assists came at the right time.

Then, he took off the Anta shoes on his feet and put them in front of his eyes.

Because it is just new shoes, the smell does not exist.

This wave of his actions was a bit coquettish, and the spotlights flickered in the audience.

After the posing was over, Lin Ying put on her shoes and began to answer questions.

My sneaker sponsor is called 'Anta'. It is a listed sneaker brand from China with a market value of more than 1.5 billion US dollars...

Then, the scene became a press conference for Anta's official entry into the NBA.

The reporters below were all stunned, and even the reporter who asked the question felt that he had been fooled.

But you can't stop the players from talking!

This wave of forced Amway, the reporters know it even if they don't know it.

In fact, not to mention the reporters, both Carl and Iverson were stunned.

After Amway finished, Lin Ying briefly explained why she didn't wear Anta shoes.

Anta is going to design a unique signature sneaker for me, and other shoes are not suitable for my foot shape.

Well, it's as simple as that. The translation is: It's not that I don't wear Anta shoes, but there are better shoes waiting for me.

As for why he chose McGrady 3, it is not necessary, because the purpose of wearing shoes this time has been achieved, and he may change to other shoes in the end.

After the press conference came out, Iverson couldn't help but glanced at his shoes again.

You are the most conscientious spokesperson I have ever seen, and you are very brave.

Iverson finally issued a sentence of emotion.

He's not stupid, after Lin Ying started coercing Amway, he could probably guess what Lin Ying wanted to do.

But that does take a lot of courage.

Not everyone is Michael Jordan, who can make a small sneaker brand bigger.

Thanks.

Lin Ying thanked her everyday and didn't say much.

People will face many choices in this life, and they need to consider a lot when making choices.

But no matter what the reason is, after making a decision, what you need to do is to try to prove that the choice you made was right.

Otherwise, there is only one result waiting for you: you become a loser, and then regret that it would have been better if you had chosen another one.

Lin Ying chose Anta at the beginning because the conditions offered by Anta were generous enough, and it also satisfied the dividends he had expected from the beginning.

So what he has to do now is to prove that his choice is right.

And speaking of it, he is in the same situation as Anta.

As an unsystematic Chinese, he must work twice as hard to gain a foothold in the NBA.

As a newly listed domestic sneaker brand, Anta also needs to work hard to gain a foothold in the global market.

Even, he and Jordan were in a similar situation back then.

The NBA was not the Nike League at the beginning. When Nike entered the NBA, the number one sponsor of the NBA at that time was Adidas.

Even Nike's market value at that time was only 25 million U.S. dollars, and it was not Adidas' main competitor.

And don't talk about sneaker technology, such a small company has no money to develop, and the technology is not much better.

But at that time, they dared to offer Jordan 2.5 million for 5 years, plus 66% profit sharing of independent brands and 5% investment in shares.

Although Anta's current market value is close to 1.5 billion US dollars, the 7-year endorsement contract of 42 million US dollars is not a small amount, and there are 50% profit dividends for independent brands.

Like Nike back then, Anta was completely betting.

But Jordan dared to choose in the end, so why wouldn't he dare?

So he is confident that as long as he can gain a firm foothold in the NBA, he will be able to create a Chinese version of the Nike Legend in terms of sneakers.

...

The Nuggets got off to a good start, and the response from American social media was mediocre.

After all, although they are star-studded, everyone knows that only Kobe's Lakers are not very good.

But the fans here in China are excited.

Not to mention breaking the debut record of a Chinese player, he even stole Kobe!

At this stage, Kobe is a god-like figure in the eyes of domestic fans.

However, Lin Ying stole God!

This feeling is the same as what Byrd said back then:

God wore the number 23 tonight, but we beat him.

Doesn't this make people go crazy.

Coupled with Lin Ying's interview with Anta shoes after the game, it made their blood a little bit surging.

Many of them questioned Lin Ying's choice before, but that was more because they didn't know many details.

Now Lin Ying is wearing someone else's shoes to sell her own shoes, and they are inexplicably moved by this show.

Moreover, the country has been rising in recent years, and national pride has also been rising.

Selling Anta shoes to the United States and letting them wear imported goods is exciting!

So naturally, there was an Anta craze in China.

At this time, there is nothing that can support Lin Ying more than buying a pair of Anta shoes.

And don't forget, Lin Ying's team broke the circle before the Asian Championships!

His market value is more obvious at this time.

This wave also greatly increased the confidence of Anta executives.

Although it is still too early to be successful, Lin Ying's way of actively promoting shoes and being the ultimate conscientious spokesperson made them feel that they really made the right bet!

Anta's high-level executives held an emergency meeting that night, and there was only one content:

Grasp the acquisition of Fila China's operating rights, and hurry up to develop Lin Ying's sneakers!

...

ps: Does anyone know Anta? Let them settle the advertising fee for me.

Thank you for the reward of a Jianghu!
