Korean entertainment, I am crazy

With a vision for the future, Yang Rui easily gained Scarlett Johansson's favor.

He dare to assert that the unreleased "Titanic" is a classic movie, and he firmly believes that magic and sci-fi movies are the future development trends and will definitely become the main box office.

At this time, "Harry Potter" had just published its first novel. Like "The Lord of the Rings", the first movie was only released in 2001. If he had money, he would want to buy a share of the copyright of these films.For him, the entertainment industry has unlimited business opportunities. As long as he invests, it is difficult not to make a fortune.

Scarlett was a famous literary girl in the early stage. Yang Rui talked to her about acting and movies, and she became a friend in a while.After lunch, he got Scarlett's phone number, which was not regarded as a strange bun.

Before leaving, Scarlett asked: "I want to give my brother a gift. He is a fan of Alan Houston. When the season starts, can you help me get his signature jersey?"

"Of course." Yang Rui agreed without thinking.

Scarlett was taken aback, and two rows of white teeth were revealed with a smile: "Jerry, why are you so good to me? Isn't it because of me?"

"I am optimistic that you will become a big star and a Hollywood actress, so make a good relationship first. Don't think all day long before you are 13 years old." Yang Rui was amused.

Even if he knew that Scarlett would be a star in the future, he didn't mean that, just wanted to make friends.

In the United States, having a relationship with a minor will be sentenced to severe penalties. In New York, it will have to be sentenced to 20 years...Unless you don’t want to pass it, who would think about it?

Meeting Scarlett, Yang Rui's life became fulfilled, preparing for future investment with money.

He goes to the library to read books every day, eats at the aftertaste snack bar at noon, walks home in the evening, exercises and exercises cooking skills.

To live a new life, he cherishes time more than others and has more life insights.

His work in the previous life was good, or just good, not a passion; he had several girlfriends in his previous life, but none of them were true love, more like acting on the spot; there were many friends in the previous life, and no one could help others, and could not make progress together.

To put it bluntly, his previous life was just an ordinary person, too ordinary, and his life was dull to boring.

Some people say that plain is true, but plain, is it really good?

The Belgian "Old Man" magazine once conducted a national survey on elderly people over 60 years old, entitled "What do you regret?" The survey results are very interesting.

72% of the elderly regretted that they did not work hard enough when they were young, resulting in no success in their careers; 67% of the elderly regretted choosing a career wrongly when they were young; 63% of the elderly regretted insufficient education or improper methods for their children; 58% of the elderly regretted not exercising enough; 56% of the elderly regret not cherishing their partner.

At 60 years old, it is already in the evening sun. Looking back on the past, I can make a more objective and fair judgment of myself.

Before Yang Rui was 60, he realized that his previous life was wrong. Since most of the elderly regretted his unsuccessful career, he should focus on his career, especially when he chose the right career. He did not want to regret in the future. .

He also needs to exercise, ensure his health, and find a partner who loves each other.

As long as these three points are achieved, life will be more perfect.He currently has no children or old parents. He is energetic. If his career is not successful, he will find no excuses!

Not only is Yang Rui's life on track, Thomas has also done a great job on Wall Street, and both of them are enviable successful people among their peers.

Soon after two months, Yang Rui and Scarlett became friends, and there was a special seat by the window in the "Aftertaste Snack Bar".Scarlett lives not far away and likes to talk about movies with Yang Rui.

They usually eat Chinese food, and the black sesame paste for dessert is still only two favorites.

Scarlett's younger brother Hunter also often comes to eat. He has twin siblings with similar facial features. This kid wearing a wig and pretending to be a female can definitely fool many people.

The two forced Hunter to eat the sesame paste, and this guy took a bite. The expression Yang Rui could remember for a lifetime, as if he went to the execution ground.This delicacy tastes a bit heavy for most American cultural concepts.

At the end of August, Scarlett successfully auditioned into the crew of "The Horse Whisperer" and went to make a movie.

Hunter still often went to the snack bar to eat and asked questions for a long time."Jerry, I'm very strange, can you really talk to Scarlett?"

"Don't you often listen to us chatting? Don't you believe that she can become a Hollywood star? I am very accurate." Yang Rui replied.

Hunter was confused. He insisted on following at first because Scarlett said that he knew the Knicks assistant, and he was worried that the other party was a liar or had bad intentions.

As a result, after meeting many times, he found that Yang Rui's eyes were clear, not admiring Scarlett at all, but talking about basketball, movies, Hollywood gossip, and some entertainment.

"Do you still want to be an actor in the future?" Hunter asked.

"No, I'm more interested in being a boss and investing in making movies. To put it bluntly, I want to make money." Yang Rui took a mouthful of fried noodles, showing a look of yearning.

The more money is naturally the better. In the short term, he can't accumulate capital to do big things. Thomas has helped him make a lot of stocks, but it is still too slow.

Hunter asked: "After the training camp starts, you will help me get to Houston to sign, right?"

"Of course, this is a trivial matter. What do you want Houston to write on your clothes? I guess he can't give you clothes, so you'd better prepare one yourself."

"Just write Hunter, one day, you will become an NBA star." Hunter said seriously.

Yang Rui smiled and shook his head: "Change to another. From my professional perspective, you can't be an NBA star. Playing basketball depends on your talent."

Hunter was a little unhappy: "Why not, I am tall."

Yang Rui sighed: "Don't you look at what level of confrontation is in the NBA? I have to break up with my physique. Even if you grow to 1.9 meters in the future, can you train a muscle? Others give you a elbow. , Your delicate face is over. If you want to be handsome in basketball, you can play in school."

Hunter is usually narcissistic, blushing when someone says the main thing."Then what are you talking about?"

"Study hard, make progress every day." Yang Rui answered casually.

"..."

Hunter went home to meditate for several days and took a jersey to the snack bar to Yang Rui."I think about it, just write, never give up my dream!"

"Hey, this is really good, Hunter, what is your dream?"

"I don't know. Now...I don't know yet."

Yang Rui looked at him shy, and felt a chill.This is the tall male version of Scarlett. The two look so alike.

On September 23, Yang Rui received a phone call from the management to prepare him to participate in the team media day.The day after tomorrow, everyone on the team will get busy, and the new season is about to begin!Media Day, also known as Media Meeting Day, is a time when players and coaches compulsorily ask the media to take photos for interviews.

Team personnel should accept interviews, let the media take pictures of their team's training, and answer questions raised. Basically, it is a rigid rule. It is a measure of the league to build a good relationship with the media.

After Yang Rui arrived at the arena, he greeted the players.

The five people in the summer league were very close to him. Bowen, Jackson and Atkins all reported to him the results of their training, treating him as a thigh and intending to hug him tightly.

Ewing, Oakley, Johnson and other veterans nodded and even finished, they are all high-paying stars. Although they are players, they don't pay much attention to assistants.

NBA coaches are playing with a group of rich men. It is not easy to convince them.Ewing's salary this season is 200 times that of Yang Rui.

Usually, the focus of the media day is the big-name star and the head coach. This time, with the exception of this time, reporters from multiple media interviewed Yang Rui. The previous racism incidents made his name known throughout the United States.

"Jerry Yang, are you confident to be the team's first assistant coach?" the reporter asked.

"Yes." Yang Rui despised the reporter from his heart. This is nonsense, who would say no?

"A lot of people think that the Knicks played well in the summer league because of the player's strength, not the tactics. What do you think?" the reporter asked.

"Has anyone said that before the summer league?" Yang Rui wanted to be him, none of these five people could get together."Of course, what others think is their business, what I have to do is help the team win, the record will tell everything."

The reporter asked: "What do you think the Knicks will achieve in the new season?"

"I don't know, the opponents are very strong. We will work together to defeat those strong opponents."

The reporter asked: "On the Internet, the coach who graduated with you said that you are introverted and out of gregariousness, causing your relationship to be bad. Do you have anything to say?"

After the discrimination incident occurred, in order to reduce the impact, several coaches were interviewed anonymously in partnership, saying that Yang Rui was not gregarious.

Yang Rui smiled and said: "When I couldn't find a job, many people laughed at me and found a good job, and began to say that I am not gregarious. I want to say, classmates, don’t be jealous. What can you do with the same love? You can't be an NBA coach because you are incapable, not because you don't have a good father."

The reporters were all taken aback, big news, this is obviously verbal abuse without swearing.

It is certain to be out of gregariousness, but if Yang Rui is introverted and no one believes, which introverted person would dare to say that in the media?

Yang Rui dared to take the camera to expose, naturally he didn't mind making up the knife.Is there a way to have a good relationship with those people?When he was down, one by one fell into the pit. Could it be that when he is developed, these bastards will come to their senses and become good ones?

He will not deliberately make enemies, and if he is already an enemy, there is no need to be polite, let alone tell people the truth, goodness and beauty.

Regarding how to look at the players, Yang Rui said all good things, including the five people who have cooperated in the summer league. He also boasted.As an assistant, you can't avoid interacting with the players, and you can't talk nonsense.

The 17-man roster for the Knicks preseason was released.

Centers: Patrick Ewing, Ben Wallace, Chris Dudley, Buck Williams.

Power forwards: Charles Oakley, Mickey Moore, Herb Williams.

Small forwards: Larry Johnson, Bruce Bowen, Anthony Bowie, Chris Mills.

Shooting guards: Alan Houston, Stephen Jackson, John Starks.

Point guards: Chris Childs, Charlie Ward, Chucky Atkins.

The Knicks only have a championship goal this season, and Mills can only play as a substitute to protect Johnson from injury.Yang Rui is confident in preventing the Bulls from defending their title this season. The team has a deep victory over the Bulls and can be called the Super Knicks.

Look at the makeup photos of the core players to know how strong they are. Ewing, Oakley, Johnson, Houston, and Starks took a group photo of five people, all of which are very powerful.

On the 26th, the team opened a training session for the media and fans to visit the stadium, and the stadium was full.

In addition to watching the training game, the audience will also receive a short-sleeved T-shirt with the Knicks logo as a souvenir.Hunter Johnson brought Jill, his childhood sweetheart, and it was a ticket from Yang Rui.

Before the training began, Oakley and Ben Wallace were chatting on the sidelines. Van Gundy asked curiously: "Why, you two know each other?"

"He participated in my training camp when he was in high school, and I recommended this kid to go to college." Oakley smiled and talked about the funny things they knew each other.

At that time, Oakley saw a fierce-looking guy in the training camp. He didn't look like a good thing at all, and his body didn't look like a high school student, so he asked him to practice alone and wanted to teach him a lesson.

Oakley didn't expect that this kid would dare to go head-to-head with him. Oakley slammed his lips and he broke Oakley's nose. This kid was Ben Wallace in high school.

Later, Oakley asked Ben Wallace, who was financially disadvantaged, to work in his own car dealership, and taught him to play basketball. He also recommended and subsidized him to go to his alma mater, Virginia Union University, to go to school and play.

Therefore, in the course of Big Ben's growth, Oakley's figure is everywhere, tough, steel-like muscles.

After listening to the introduction, Van Gundy looked at Big Ben more pleasingly, he likes people who can defend."You play well in the preseason. As long as he has 80% defensive skills, the team will sign a long contract with you."

Van Gundy still underestimated him, and now he is stronger than Oakley. He must have won a big prize. His running and jumping ability is amazing, and what he lacks is only experience.Just looking at the protection of rebounds, he will not be worse than Oakley.

The players first ran laps with the fitness division, and then shot to warm up. Van Gundy and Yang Rui chatted on the sidelines.

"We will mix up the players for a while, you and Tom will lead a team, let's play against each other, let me see your skills." Van Gundy proposed.

Yang Rui smiled slightly."I have no problem against it, but if the players mix up, I can't see my ability."

"Oh? What do you say?"

"I'll take the five people in the summer league and pick two more substitutes. As long as Alan Houston has a starter and eight people against you, how about nine?"

Van Gundy frowned."Why, do you think you have a chance to beat me?"

Yang Rui explained with a smile: "No, because the core of my tactics is to attack from the outside in, so I want you to see the effect of such a fight."

This is a nice statement. In fact, Yang Rui asked Houston to come over because Van Gundy would not use it.

Houston was the second leader of the Pistons in the 1995-96 season, averaging 19.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 3 assists in 15.2 shots, 2.3 three-pointers in 5.5 shots, and a 42.7% three-pointer.

In the Knicks, Houston averaged 12.7 shots per game, the data dropped to 14.8 points, 3 rebounds and 2.2 assists, and the three-point percentage dropped to 38.5%.

The team with the most accurate shots only had 12.7 shots and no special tactics.Under Van Gundy, Houston, who was originally the "three-pointer", has simply transformed into the "CIC King", which is a waste of resources.

Yang Rui wants to show Van Gundy what it is like to be the core of the outside line!
