Chapter 219 The whole audience was shocked and became famous abroad
Jordan's eyes were focused and slightly burning, as if he wanted to engrave every detail of this young man in his mind.
This is an expression full of trust, a good friend whom I haven't seen in many years.
Fang Bai stretched out his right hand, curved his mouth, showed a smile, and shook hands with him: "Hello, Jordan, my name is Fang Bai, a businessman from Hua Country."
After you finish speaking, hand over your name.
Jordan took the business card and looked at it carefully. Unexpectedly, this young man was the owner of a company. He patted his forehead and pointed at the jersey he was wearing: "Sorry, I didn't bring my business card. I will call you then." .”
"It's okay. In fact, I also want to cooperate with you in business." Fang Bai smiled lightly and shrugged, saying it didn't matter.
Jordan's current annual salary reaches 30 million US dollars, making him the world's first billionaire athlete.
After retiring, his wealth has continued to grow, and he can be said to be one of the athletes who is better at managing money. Unlike some athletes who squandered money while in service and owe a lot of debt after retirement.
His advertising endorsement fees are very high, at least millions of dollars. Even Fang Bai couldn't help but be speechless and had to consider whether it was worth the investment.
But no matter what, let's make friends first. This guy has money, and Fang Bai lacks dollars. Maybe we can cooperate in other aspects, not necessarily in advertising.
"Of course. If you have time, you are welcome to come to my home." Jordan smiled and extended the invitation.
The people around were a little surprised when they heard the conversation between the two.
Who is this young man that can make Jordan so enthusiastic about him.
Visiting your home as a guest is a dream for many people.
Of course, Fang Bai's wealth is not low. The wealth recognized by Gold Finger has reached 1.2 billion yuan. The actual book value, including the land premium, is close to 5 billion yuan, equivalent to more than 900 million US dollars.
"I will if I have time." Fang Bai nodded.
Jordan stretched out his hand again, shook it with Fang Bai, chatted for a few words and then went to warm up.
Fang Bai also sat down, leaving countless confused viewers.
Judging from Fang Bai's appearance and behavior, he is probably the son of a rich or noble family, otherwise he would not be able to sit in the front row and watch the game.
"Fang, I didn't expect you to shoot so accurately! You also got Jordan's friendship, that's amazing!" David L. Copeland, who was sitting next to Fang Bai, looked envious. From seeing Fang Bai stand up and shoot a long-distance shot to Jordan coming up to talk to him As we chatted, the more I felt the magic of Fang Bai.
"I usually like to play basketball. My shooting percentage is okay, but my skills are not very good." Fang Bai said modestly.
"You are so humble. This is more than just okay. It's great. Even if an ordinary person can hit a basketball board, it's pretty good." David L. Copeland gave a thumbs up in praise.
The two chatted off the court, and some well-known people came over to say hello to Fang Bai and asked for their business cards, which Fang Bai also gave.
His business card is in Chinese and English, and his position is chairman of Xinghai Group.
There is no Internet now, otherwise those who get the business card will know his identity by searching online. Currently, they can only know by calling the locals in Hua Country.
After a while, more and more stars entered the stadium.
Fang Bai saw Karl Malone walking by, and then threw him a favorability +50, which made him excited and looked at Fang Bai a few more times.
Although Karl Malone didn't come over to talk to Fang Bai, he felt that Fang Bai was quite friendly and gave him a silly smile.
Jordan will participate in the slam dunk contest tonight. He warmed up on the sidelines and tried shooting a few basketballs. He felt that his hand was pretty good.
After practicing for a while, I took two balls to Fang Bai's side.
"Fang, your super long shot is so good, better than many stars. Why don't you try two more for fun so that everyone can appreciate it." Jordan happened to see Fang Bai's super long shot. From his shooting posture, he knew that he was very professional. of.
Many viewers just shouted "One more", but they actually wanted to see if it was so accurate.
In fact, a courtside spectator shooting a long-distance shot is more enjoyable to watch than a three-point shooting contest.
If Fang Bai didn't have that strength, Jordan wouldn't ask like this. It's not good to embarrass a friend.
If you have that kind of ability, this is an opportunity for your friends to shine. Of course, Jordan also wants to take a look.
Even though they only met once, Jordan felt that Fang Bai was very kind and that such a person was worth making friends with.
Therefore, at this time, he already considered Fang Bai to be his friend.
"That's not good, today is your home court." Fang Bai smiled sheepishly.
"It's okay, let's try two shots and let the audience's eyes open." Jordan said it didn't matter.
Jordan came over to chat, and Karl Malone was also a little curious. He didn't see Fang Bai shoot just now, but heard a star friend say that a spectator made a super shot.
"Friend, you can give it a try." Karl Malone also wanted to know.
Fang Bai heard what the two said, and also heard the surrounding audience shouting, "Orientals, try one more time."
Unable to reject the hospitality, Fang Bai nodded and took a ball from Jordan.
At this moment, everyone in the audience knew that Fang Bai was going to shoot a long shot, and everyone focused on him.
The first one is good luck, the second one is impossible to hit.
The media reporter thought this was a very good topic and quickly took the camera to take photos.
The stars who were playing in the other half also stopped shooting to watch the audience invited by Jordan to shoot super long-range shots.
Fang Bai patted the basketball. In fact, he was not confident that he would hit the ball 100%. In the past, when he tried to shoot from a long distance, the probability was half.
Of course, this probability is extremely abnormal.
Seeing the audience's eyes focused on him, he became serious. He didn't want to embarrass the country.
Standing firmly on the floor with both feet, he glanced at the basketball basket more than 20 meters away. He focused his eyes and took aim seriously. His knees were slightly bent and his elbows were also slightly bent. His eyes were focused on the basket again, with firm and focused eyes.
Quickly unfold your body, straighten your arms at the same time, and throw the basketball hard into the air.
When the basketball left his fingers and flew through the air, everyone was following the trajectory of the basketball.
For a brief moment or two, countless viewers were guessing whether they were right or wrong.
"Uh-huh!"
Hit again, the audience was shocked and dumbfounded, then screamed and almost stood up.
Jordan didn't expect that he was really hit. His eyes widened, and then he waved his hands vigorously and shouted "oh, my god", which was more exciting than the audience.
Karl Malone also had a similar expression, with his mouth wide open. After all, it was the first time he saw it.
One is luck, and the second is true strength.
"Woah, super awesome!"
“Orientals are awesome!”
"Kung Fu Basketball!"
"That's a really good shot!"
Without waiting for the audience to shout "one more", he threw the other basketball in his hand to Fang Bai.
Fang Bai took it, adjusted his posture, and threw it again.
The entire audience stood up again.
There was a "bang" sound, and the whole audience sighed and had to sit down.
Missed the shot, but still hit the basketball hoop.
Jordan didn't take it, so Karl Malone summoned a basketball and threw it to Fang Bai: "Brother, let's get another one."
The two big stars invited, and the audience also wanted to watch, shouting "Encore! Encore!"
Fang Bai didn't refuse, adjusted his posture and threw again.
Most of the audience stood up again, staring at the basketball in the air.
"Uh-huh!"
The sound echoed across the basketball court, and then the ball hit the floor with a thud.
Another hit, two out of three, and counting the previous one, it was three out of four.
The audience cheered, and many even jumped up, waved their hands, and applauded enthusiastically.
Regardless of whether you know Fang Bai or not, this is a miracle!
This kind of magical shot is rare to see, but it is much better than any three-point king game.
This time, the audience knew how abnormal the Easterner's shooting percentage was.
Even the on-site coach had to be tempted and came over to ask Fang Bai for his business card.
Being able to shoot so far and very easily means that his hand strength must be very strong. If he shoots three-pointers from close range, wouldn't his shooting rate be even more abnormal?
When it comes to playing basketball, he's less than 180 and a bit short, but he's definitely good enough as a defender, but I don't know what his skills are like.
This evening was supposed to be an all-star show, but it suddenly became the focus of the audience.
"Fang, you are so awesome, are you interested in playing professional basketball?
I can give you a recommendation. Trial training is no problem. In the end, you have to rely on yourself, but I believe you can do it. "
When Jordan saw Fang Bai make a shot, he felt happier than himself. He couldn't help hugging him, but then he felt a little inappropriate. After letting go, he just held his shoulders.
"Forget it, basketball is just my hobby." Fang Bai refused, relying on his current physical fitness +2, it is definitely no problem to play professional basketball, but his main business is scientific research.
Basketball, just show off occasionally.
Super long-distance shooting, out of national pride, originally wanted foreigners to respect Hua people.
"Hey, that's a pity, it was a waste of a super talent." Jordan sighed. He saw that Fang Bai was young and had a strong body. He could easily shoot the basketball from long distances. There must be no big problem with his physical fitness.
The businessman next to him, who looked down upon him, felt very embarrassed now. He didn't expect this orientalist to be so powerful, and thought it was the mysterious Hua Kingdom Kung Fu.
Fang Bai felt that it was almost done, so he took this opportunity to get to know two big stars. If someone offered him a ball to shoot, he would not want to shoot again. If he shoots again, he will probably not hit.
I'm really lucky today, three out of four.
Fang Bai chatted with Jordan for a while and said he didn't want to vote anymore. This is the home court of stars, and it would not be good to steal the limelight.
Jordan left to warm up again, and Karl Malone asked for a business card and left.
After Fang Bai sat down, the excitement and enthusiasm of the audience had not dissipated. He felt that today was quite interesting. Could this be a surprise event arranged by the organizer alliance?
The audience in front of the TV station thought so too.
After a few minutes, the host entered the venue and was ready to start tonight's official game.
“A big thank you to our fans for providing us with a surprise long-range shot that brought our event to a climax in advance.
What is very surprising is that he is from Hua country and is not a professional basketball player!
It is Mr. Fang Bai, the chairman of Xinghai Group, a businessman and a sophomore.
I was also a little curious whether Mr. Fang Bai used Hua Guo Kung Fu, but he said no, he just practiced a lot and practice makes perfect.
I'm very sorry, I haven't heard of Xinghai Group. After all, I don't know much about Huaguo's companies, but I believe that after tonight, more people will know about Xinghai Group and Mr. Fang Bai. "The host just went to ask for Fang Bai's business card and exchanged some words.
Fang Bai emphasized that he was from Hua country, so don’t let him get him wrong.
"Gentlemen and ladies, tonight's three-point contest officially begins!"
After the host made the announcement, the audience burst into deafening cheers and applause, and the whole arena was boiling.
At the same time, they also know Fang Bai and know that Hua Guo is a very good shooter.
The first thing to start is the three-point shooting contest. There is no skills challenge. The skills challenge only started having this event in 2004.
The three-point shooting game has been around since 1986.
The three-point shooting contest before 2014 had a total of 5 shooting points at different positions. Each shooting point had 5 balls. The orange ball counted for one point, a total of 4. The final flower ball counted for 2 points, that is, each There are 6 points for shooting points, and the full score is 30 points.
The required time is one minute, and the time is very tight. After casting one, there is no time to see whether it goes in or not.
It is precisely because of the tight time that it is enjoyable to watch.
Before Fang Bai upgraded his ring finger to level 5, he would not have been confident that he could complete the shot seriously within one minute.
Currently, without interference, his three-point shooting percentage is about 85%. In games like this, which require such fast shooting, the shooting percentage may drop below 80%.
In the past few games, the championship score has been between 16-19 points. If Fang Bai participates, it is really possible to win the championship.
However, he couldn't participate, and he already had enough limelight today. If he did any more, he would be a slap in the face to the three-point champion.
However, no matter how outstanding the three-point king's performance was tonight, it was not as topical as his four long-range shots.
After a while, the preliminaries began.
Fang Bai watched the game while chatting with David sitting next to him. The preliminaries ended quickly and it was the finals. In the end, Mark Price of the Cavaliers won the championship with 18 points.
Next is the slam dunk contest, which the audience likes to watch the most.
Compared with the softer three-point king game, foreigners prefer violent dunks.
In the end, after many rounds of competition, Harold Miner won the slam dunk championship.
After the game, the audience dispersed, and Fang Bai and David also left the venue.
On the way out of the stadium, many fans greeted Fang Bai, saying that tonight's three-point champion was too boring and he should be allowed to perform.
The next day, reports about the NBA All-Star Weekend all mentioned Fang Bai's four long-range shots and introduced Fang Bai, a native of China. On the contrary, the three-point king looked dim.
After all, there are three-point champions every year, but there are no super long-range shots. It is extremely rare to see both shots being made in the game.
In last night's live TV broadcast, many viewers also knew about Fang Bai.
He has a handsome appearance, a good shooting posture, and a confident smile. This photo was even published by a media in China.
In this way, "Hua Guofang" became famous in Chou Country.
Of course, there are also many ugly Chinese people who think that Fang Bai can only shoot from long distances, so that doesn't matter. They prefer violent dunks.
Anyway, there are all kinds of jealousies, and even contempt for Hua people who can't play basketball and can only shoot.
When watching the All-Star Game in the evening, Fang Bai appeared in the same position again. Jordan and Karl Malone came over to chat with him for a few words, and then warmed up to prepare for the game.
After the game started, Fang Bai watched the game quietly. I have to say that these stars are very good at cooperating.
Di Fangbo is confident that his personal shooting skills are good, but compared with these professional skills, he cannot stand out at all.
The All-Star Game is an exhibition game, with weaker confrontation and pressure. Just dunk when you can, and try your best to show your personal strengths. After one game, the score is very high. In the end, the Eastern Conference defeated the Western Conference 136:134.
In a brief awards ceremony, the league announced that Jordan won the MVP.
Jordan was very happy when he won the MVP. He spread his arms and enjoyed the enthusiastic worship of 20,000+ die-hard fans in the audience. At that moment, he was a god in people's eyes, and the fans in the audience cheered.
After hugging his teammates, he finally found Fang Bai and hugged him too.
Fang Bai sent congratulations: "Congratulations, you won the MVP."
Jordan laughed with a smile on his face: "Thank you, Fang. If you are free tomorrow, I would like to ask you to have a drink with you and a few friends. I will introduce them to you."
"Can."
Fang Bai didn't hesitate much. This was a disguised way to increase his connections, but he was also short of dollars.
"Okay, I'll call you tomorrow morning." Jordan made a gesture of calling. He would have reporters to interview him later and had to go back to the locker room.
Fang Bai and David left the stadium together after watching the award ceremony. He planned to ask David to meet the next few stars.
David also wants to get Jordan's autograph, so he needs to prepare some basketballs and jerseys tomorrow.
Jordan returned to the locker room to party with his teammates and was showered with champagne. After celebrating, he was interviewed by media reporters.
Media reporters mainly asked him about his performance and feelings tonight. Jordan said a lot of thanks to the organizers and teammates.
A media reporter asked about his relationship with Fang Bai. Jordan said that he and Fang Bai were very good friends and planned to get together for a drink tomorrow. At the same time, he also wanted to learn about the magical long-distance shooting technique.
He also said that with super long-range shooting skills, the three-pointer must be very powerful, but it is a bit regretful that his friend does not want to play professional games.
Currently, Jordan does not know Fang Bai’s specific net worth.
The media reporters were a little surprised to be highly praised by Jordan. They wanted to know more about that Oriental man, who he was, and what kind of company Xinghai Group was. It was a bit incredible to be the chairman of a company at such a young age.
