Korean entertainment, I am crazy

When checking out the hotel, Yang Rui deliberately chatted with five people he chose, and formulated a summer training plan for them.

In addition to Ben Wallace, the other four are all shots.Bowen only cares about the bottom corner on the right, the sides and the middle of the others, the farther the range is, the better.

Flew back to New York that night. Early the next morning, Yang Rui and Thibodeau went to the manager's office to meet Ernie Grenfeld.

"Congratulations, you did a great job this time." Ernie and the two shook hands firmly."Please sit down."

After a few greetings, Ernie started talking about business."The bonus of 5,000 per person has already been credited to the account."

Sibodu was excited, and Yang Rui was very happy. Money is the most realistic reward. Now they are not rich.The Knicks are notoriously rich and powerful, as long as they do well, the bonus is absolutely indispensable.

"Have you encountered any difficulties this time? You can also mention which player is impressed."

Xibodu had something to say, but he resisted looking at Yang Rui and motioned him to speak first.After this summer league, he completely abandoned the idea of ​​competing for the first assistant coach.

Regardless of offensive layout or on-the-spot resilience, Yang Rui clearly beats Thibodeau. Van Gundy is a defensive expert. There is not much that Thibodeau can do. He needs to keep a low profile.

Yang Rui smiled and said: "My cooperation with Tom is very tacit, one offense and one defense, there is no difficulty. In terms of players, we unanimously recommend the team’s five starting players. They all have specialties and can help the team. Tom, what do you think? Supplement?"

"The summer league is gone, it's all about tactics, we just wait to communicate with Jeff." Thibodeau continued.

"It's September to discuss basketball. You should enjoy your vacation now, and attend the celebration party at the Blues Club the next night, and you can bring your family." Ernie laughed.

The celebration is not a big fanfare. The venue is in a private club near Madison Square Garden. It belongs to the Dolan family and often hosts parties.

Ernie asked: "Jerry, the reporter of Cable Sports will conduct an exclusive interview with you tomorrow. They will contact you by phone. You can decide where to interview. Try to talk about hot topics and don't be cautious. Many fans know you."

Yang Rui thought to himself that if he were to be interviewed in the apartment, it would be a hot spot. Two people living in 8 square meters would not be as good as the student dormitory, but he and Thomas were ready to move out.

Thibodeau is very envious, the bonuses are the same, the actual management is more optimistic about Yang Rui, ready to use the team's resources to promote him.

Knicks owner James Dolan is a legend. He has been drinking and taking drugs, and is considered unstable. In 1993, he was sent to a drug rehabilitation center for treatment.In his spare time, Dolan likes music very much. He has performed as a singer.At the same time, he is also a philanthropist and has a wide range of friends.

Dolan is the chairman of Madison Square Garden, president and CEO of American Cable Systems, and is also responsible for overseeing the New York Knicks, NHL New York Rangers, WNBA New York Libertys, and the Connecticut Moby Dick of the American Hockey League .

His own cable sports channel is open to the United States. It’s a matter of one word that Dolan wants to advertise. The Knicks didn’t announce Yang Rui as an assistant before. He wanted to spend some time investigating. If his summer league performance is bad, Dolan doesn’t Mind dismissing him with a liquidated damage, and then find an experienced teaching assistant.

Now, Yang Rui has truly become a member of the Knicks.

Yang Rui thinks crying poorly in front of the camera is very bad, and asks: "Manager, what do you mean by the hot spot? Can you give me an example?"

Ernie thought for a while and laughed: "It's a topic that attracts people's attention. You can say that you have a difficult process of getting a coaching qualification. It doesn't matter if you have encountered racial discrimination, but don't forget to point out that our team does not have this. Kind of thing."

In the United States, racial discrimination always has the most "hot spots", and it often makes headlines. Every year, there are countless lawsuits against such matters.

Yang Rui understands the team’s thinking and uses his Chinese identity to hype. Now China has more and more people watching the NBA. The economy is developing rapidly, and it is a huge potential market. Under the premise that each team does not have Chinese players, the assistant coach is The Chinese gimmick is good.

The Knicks have always been very profitable, even in the previous life of Yang Rui, during the 2014-15 season, the Knicks had the worst record in team history of 17 wins and 65 losses. In one year, they still created nearly 300 million US dollars in income. It is so amazing. .

After coming out of the arena, Yang Rui took a walk home as usual and exercised by the way.He has been thinking about the interview all the way, and he doesn't think there will be any hot spots.

If it was the original Jerry, he would have told of his hardships since childhood, crying with tears.Yang Rui is different. He just accepts the memories. He is like a bystander of those tragic experiences. He doesn't have a deep understanding and a sense of substitution.

Even if I really feel miserable, there is no evidence of how the coaches satirized him at the same time. If the other party does not admit it in an interview, he will appear to be a careful person.

It's really a headache, can't he accept the interview and say generously, "Am I a genius?" Whatever you say, people will see the results in the future.

Back to the apartment, Thomas who went out to find a job has not yet returned.

Yang Rui began to consider moving. Now there is more than 10,000 US dollars in his bank card. After the new season starts, he will have more income and he can rent a better apartment.

When the phone rang, Yang Rui reached out and picked up the microphone."Hello there."

On the other end of the phone was a male voice with a voice of alcohol and tobacco."Hi, little mouse, we have a party tomorrow night, are you coming?"

Hearing this London sound, Jerry's soul, which Yang Rui thought had disappeared, began to agitate, and many memories flooded his mind uncontrollably.

This person is named Archie Strachan, in his early thirties, British descent, and a coach who graduated from a five-star basketball training camp at the same time as Jerry.

Jerry worked and studied. In addition to attending classes, he also worked as a waiter in a nearby restaurant. It happened that Archie frequented that shop and deliberately asked Jerry for service. He paid the normal amount of tips as if he was a gift from God, and he sneered at every turn. , The sense of superiority breaks through the horizon.

In China, many people like to promote the British gentlemanly demeanor, but in Jerry's memory, the British people he met were both cheap and arrogant, and always wanted to bully, which was all bad in their bones.

Jerry was humiliated at the last gathering, which caused Yang Rui to pass through. This time, Archie wanted to find superiority from him, and had a perverted hobby that trampled on the dignity of others.

"Why don't you speak? It's not that you haven't found a job yet, so embarrassed to come? Dinner is free." Archie asked triumphantly: "Or... We persuaded you last time, were you angry?"

"No, I don't want to miss the free dinner." Yang Rui sneered at the corner of his mouth."How can I be angry? I am a man with a broad mind and no overnight hatred."

Archer only felt that "Jerry" had a thick face, and it was a weird thing that he would rather be laughed at for the sake of a meal.

Yang Rui's goal is not to get rid of food, but to find a "hot spot" in the news, a shortcut to fame.Yang Rui did not have an overnight revenge, and he usually reported it on the spot.

He and Archie Strachan have never met. In memory, he has a freckled face, a sectioned nose, and a clear peak. The hairline is slightly better than the thin man of the Qing Dynasty.

For him, attending this coaching gathering is just playing.Since Archer didn't know that he had become the Knicks coach, he wanted to take this opportunity to surprise those who had laughed at Jerry.

After hanging up Archer's phone, he immediately called Ernie Grunfeld.

"Manager, I have a question. If tomorrow I was interviewed by the reporter and talked about racial discrimination and showed evidence, would this work?"

"What?" Ernie was taken aback."Do you have evidence?"

"Just now, the coach of the same period called me to explain that there was a party tomorrow. It is not the first time that the Englishman will take this opportunity to humiliate me. I am afraid that this will change from a sports interview to a social event, which will have an impact. It's too big, so ask your opinion first." Yang Rui said lightly.

If the management does not support it, Yang Rui immediately gives up this idea. His main purpose is to increase personal exposure.

He doesn't care about racism. Archer hates him. Why doesn't he think this freckled guy is SB?I just didn't say it, the discrimination is mutual.

Ernie thought for a while and replied seriously: "As long as you don't sue them and make things too complicated, I think you can. You have to focus on work, not personal grievances."

"I'm not the kind of person who doesn't know the general, but they are too much. I want a lot of people to see their ugly faces and call on everyone not to look at people with colored glasses. This will greatly increase my exposure, right?"

"Of course." Ernie is a speculative expert and can't think of a more attractive interview.

On the surface, Yang Rui was discriminated against, but he was the one who actually benefited. If the news goes viral, he will follow.

Yang Rui is holding this purpose, not arrogant and immortal.A lawyer needs to be hired in a lawsuit. It is troublesome to appear in court and the litigation period is very long. Even if someone wants to help him with the lawsuit for free, he will refuse, and he will not lose much money.

Ernie did not persuade Yang Rui to be patient and silent. They signed talents, not ninjas.After chatting for a while, he believed that Yang Rui was a brainy person who would not mess around.

As long as the explanation is correct, the Chinese will not make trouble. On the contrary, after watching the show and knowing that Jerry is a coach in the NBA, this is an improvement in the status of the Chinese, and the Chinese in New York may be happy.

Early the next morning, the person on the radio called Yang Rui and communicated with him the content of the interview.

Yang Rui's plan is to bring a pinhole camera and shoot some conversations at the party, which will then be edited by the TV station.I asked, the radio station really has this kind of equipment, and the technology is at the top level in the United States.

In the United States, the super paparazzi's candid shooting ability is not inferior to the FBI, and it is impossible to prevent.The excellent paparazzi are in close contact with the radio, and some equipment is provided by the radio.

In the afternoon, Yang Rui met with female reporter Hai Li and had a brief interview in the commercial car of the radio station.Yang Rui told his previous life how difficult it was to become a coach.

"Do you feel that you have encountered discrimination in this industry?" Haili asked.

"Yes, before I joined the Knicks, I was discriminated against almost everywhere I went. Many teams drove me away without giving me a chance to interview. People who graduated from five-star clubs at the same time as me will also treat me. Cynicism."

"really?"

Yang Rui smiled bitterly: "Of course it's true. Tonight, our coaches have a party. If you don't believe me, you can follow me to the party to have a look."

The interview came to an end and the staff began to equip Yang Ruidai.

"Well, the button camera is in place and the image is very clear." Haili looked at the computer screen and said, "We can hear the sound inside, but you can't hear us."

"That's good." Yang Rui took out the radio nanny car without any psychological burden, and strode towards the clubhouse across the street. Before he even entered the door, he was already making things difficult.

"Stop. Today is a private party. No invitations are allowed." Two white security guards stopped Yang Rui.

Yang Rui thought about it for a moment and guessed that this was arranged. He should be the only Chinese attending this party. It is really easy to stop the target.

Yang Rui calmly said: "It was Archie Strachan who called me here. He didn't say anything about the invitation. You can go in and ask personally."

He speaks clearly, for fear that the audience will not hear the name.

"We don't ask, why don't you shout twice at the door to see if anyone knows you, and you might be taken in." A doorman laughed.

As everyone knows, Yang Rui deliberately pulled away and asked the camera to give him a close-up. As soon as the show was broadcast, it would be strange if he was not fired.

"You can do it, I was driven away. When Archer asks, explain to him slowly." Yang Rui put down these words, turned his head and left.

Just five steps out, a security guard ran up to stop him."Sorry, don't be angry, he went in and asked, as long as what you said is true, definitely let in."

Yang Rui had no expression on his face. Since he was here, he didn't want to simply leave. He wanted to see how cheap these people are and whether they can be coaches after exposure.

His only concern is that he doesn't know how much the Los Angeles media reported on his news. If someone at the party knew that he was an assistant coach for the Knicks and couldn't let go, it would be boring.

After a while, Archer came to greet him.

"Hi, little mouse, why didn't you bring an invitation?"

"I've said it many times? I'm not called a mouse, and I don't like this insulting name." Yang Rui said coldly.

"Your name is a little mouse, and you are still a weak person like a mouse. What do I call you?" Archie made no secret of his disdain, his head was very high, if he was not a hooked nose, his nostrils would be Go up to the sky.

Through the camera, Haili and her assistant Taylor, who were in the car not far away, saw this arrogant face, and they all wanted to go out and slap him.

There is a saying in the United States that the British wear a gentleman's coat, do dirty things, and have a robber heart.Archie is a typical example.

Haili was a little excited again, and said with a smile: "Our show is definitely going to be popular."

Taylor agreed."I think the interview can be used not only on the sports channel, but also on the news channel, but I am afraid it will arouse some people's emotions. Will it have a bad effect?"

"When the time comes, ask the boss, I think he will let it air, because Jerry Young is not an ordinary person, he is an assistant coach for the Knicks, and he is a 23-year-old talented coach.

Dolan is a face-saving person, whoever targets Jerry now is equivalent to targeting the Knicks.The Knicks' assistant coach was actually looked down upon by a group of incompetent new coaches. How can they be?

Taylor waited to see the play."Who would say racist words to Jerry today is dead."

Yang Rui pretended to be angry on the surface, shouting in his heart-let the storm come harder!
