Chapter 56

Jenner said on the phone that she encountered an incredible thing. She said to Fan Xi nervously and uneasily: "... Jack, I found that my sister cheated. Although she is about to marry Humphries, just now she received a call from Kanye West, and they went to watch a movie together."

Uh....

Fan Xi stood up, he touched his forehead with his left hand, he really didn't know how to evaluate this matter.

In the United States, the reputation of the Kardashian family has never been very good. Kim Kardashian's private life is also known for being chaotic.

So, Fan Xi didn't know how to discuss this matter.

He just said to her calmly: "Maybe they just went to communicate some business cooperation?"

"However, I heard them say just now, they seem to want to go to Staples Center to watch your game." Jenner continued. "And, I will go to watch the game tomorrow. I am very worried that they will say something to you."

Jenner said so, Fan Xi was even more confused. "Uh-huh?"

"Kanye West is a very famous producer and singer, his reputation is very big. He is showing favor to my sister, he said he wants to help me teach Taylor a lesson, and you..."

Little Jenner said it exactly as it was.

Fan Xi heard it more and more clearly.

It is probably that Kanye West and Kim Kardashian looked at each other. Although Kim Kardashian has a marriage contract with Humphries and is about to get married, West seems to have deep roots in Kardashian. He even, in order to please and get closer to Kardashian, wanted to teach Taylor Swift, who has recently become famous in the music scene, a lesson with his identity as a senior musician....

This is really absurd.

Fan Xi said on the phone: "You'd better let that guy not be self-righteous. He wants to please your sister, that's his problem. But don't use me as a tool for him to win favor. I hate such people who think they are high and mighty."

This sentence made Jenner silent, and then she asked Fan Xi with courage: "So, are you and Taylor really together, and have you met your parents?"

Her voice was even a little choked.

Fan Xi said: "No, the authenticity of the reports in the media is not even 10%."

"Okay." Jenner on the other end of the phone suddenly jumped up. He was very satisfied with this answer. In her heart, as long as Jack is not with Taylor, that is the best thing.

Then, she said she was going to find her sister and Kanye West immediately.

Fan Xi didn't continue to talk to her.

Hanging up the phone, his mother asked him: "What? Xiao Xi, is there any tricky thing?"

Fan Xi said no.

Wu Su smiled and joked: "It seems to be the voice of a girl, let me guess, is it Disney's little princess Selena? Or the little daughter of that star family?"

Wu Su spent time learning about her son's dynamics in the United States in the past two days.

Fan Xi is already a well-known figure. She quickly collected news about her son recently. She was surprised. She never thought that her son was so famous. He not only achieved amazing achievements in his basketball career, got an unprecedented rookie contract, but also broke many records... No wonder Nike was eager to get him.

Fan Xi's lace news also made this old mother worry.

She sometimes even "comments" on the three rumored daughters-in-law. She feels that if the advantages of these three are combined, that would be really great.

Fan Xi didn't chat much with his mother.

He went to the stadium to practice shooting.

The upcoming Los Angeles Derby is a daunting challenge for Fan Xi. Kobe Bryant even called Fan Xi to ask if Fan Xi needed him to return to provide help.

Fan Xi politely declined Kobe Bryant.

He hoped to defeat the two people who were determined to "destroy" himself with his own strength.

Fan Xi currently possesses the speed of peak Iverson, the agility of peak Kemp, the explosive power of peak Kemp, the off-ball shooting ability of peak Reggie Miller, the coordination talent of peak Jordan, and the back-to-the-basket, fadeaway jump shot (technique) of peak Jordan.

Although the physical shortcomings are very obvious, and the technical accumulation is not enough, many inherited things cannot be used flexibly yet.

However, Fan Xi's strength is definitely one of the few among rookies.

According to the evaluation system of fringe player - role player - main rotation player - starting player - elite player - All-Star player - superstar - historical superstar - God of Basketball.

Fan Xi today has at least surpassed the level of an elite player, and is only one line away from All-Star strength.

Otherwise, how could he break the rookie scoring record, score 60 points, and become famous in one battle in the battle with the Miami Big Three, buzzer-beating everyone?

Although it is said that Fan Xi's legendary journey has some luck components, without strength as a foundation, luck can only be a castle in the air, moon in the water.

Facing the aggressiveness of Griffin and Davis, Fan Xi is not without confidence.

Fan Xi trained hard in the stadium, trying to carry forward the one-stage jump shot, while Blake Griffin and Baron Davis were still desperately creating momentum in the media, focusing the eyes of fans.

They all called themselves the men who ended Fan Xi's miracle.

Because of their hype, TV stations also changed their broadcast plans one after another, placing precious national broadcast opportunities in this derby battle.

"I will definitely make him a laughing stock in this game!"

Two hours before the game started, when Fan Xi was doing physiotherapy in the locker room massage room, he heard Griffin's eloquent voice on TV.

Physiotherapist House said to Fan Xi: "This guy is crazy about fame. In the past two days, he has been using you for publicity."

"Tonight, you must give him some color to see. Otherwise, after the game, he will definitely spend money to find media to publicize and boast about his heroic performance in the game."

House cares about Fan Xi very much, and the contact between him and Fan Xi during this time has formed a very solid friendship.

In fact, he has another kind of psychological belonging to Fan Xi: he has been living at the bottom of the NBA system silently, and he also fantasizes about making a name for himself one day.

Fan Xi's emergence during this time satisfies all his fantasies, and Fan Xi's legendary experience is like an adult fairy tale.

This is why the Fan Xi storm is so prevalent in North America.

People want to see the counterattack of the little person, and want to see how an undrafted player sweeps the league and becomes a superstar.

People's emotions are projected onto Fan Xi.

This is also the reason why Griffin and Davis are so targeted at Fan Xi. They want to end Fan Xi's miracle, they want to replace him, want to destroy Fan Xi's light, and then absorb it into themselves.

In the NBA, there has always been a saying: If you want to become a superstar, defeat a superstar first.

It is not easy to defeat a superstar, but they all think it is easy to defeat Fan Xi.

TNT TV broadcast this game.

Before the game started, they cycled the interviews of big beard Davis and number one pick Griffin, and they kept fueling the flames, rendering this derby battle as the ultimate test for Fan Xi to reach the All-Star Game.

Such publicity attracted countless audiences to sit in front of the TV.

Before the game officially started, just playing a panoramic view of Staples Center made the ratings break the TNT monthly broadcast ratings peak.

Charles Barkley is still one of the commentators for this game, sitting next to him is still Kenny Smith, and the steady Ernie Johnson.

Barkley said a lot of things before the game, and he implicitly pointed out: "Jack's previous miracle has a large luck component."

"His real strength is not as high as his current popularity. As for his desire to establish his own sneaker brand and succeed, I can only say it is a fantasy."

"Perhaps, a month later, the halo around him will dissipate, and he will find that he is just an ordinary starting point guard, and even can't sit firmly as a starter."

Barkley is a bit targeted at Fan Xi.

At the same time, Wu Su and Nike President Phil Knight walked into the VIP box of Staples Center, and they looked down at the whole stadium from top to bottom.

Tickets here are usually not sold to the public, and their value far exceeds those tickets sitting in the front.

As a big brother in the basketball shoe field, Phil Knight has many relationships to help him get these special treatments.

He said to Wu Su: "You are also very surprised that your son has achieved such success today, right?"

Wu Su smiled and said: "I am not surprised at all. He has been full of talent since he was a child, and he can always do things beyond expectations."

"Tonight's game is very crucial for him." Phil Knight said very honestly: "This is the first time he has encountered an opponent of the same level, and it is a head-on confrontation. Before this, people didn't pay attention to him, didn't pay enough attention to him. Including his buzzer-beater against the Bulls, the game of defeating John Wall...."

"He scored 60 points in New Jersey because the opponent was too weak, Devin Harris, who was self-righteous, was not a strong player, and his defense was extremely poor, and he was arrogant."

"In Miami, many times the Heat focused their attention on Kobe. Jack's buzzer-beater had a large luck component, and most importantly... Miami underestimated the enemy. If they had attacked a wave at the end, Jack would have no chance to buzzer-beat."

Phil Knight listed Fan Xi's classic games as if they were his own family treasures.

He has a deep research on Fan Xi, and this is his method of suppressing prices.

"So, did you play a role in fueling the flames in the past two days?" Wu Su asked Phil Knight frankly.

Phil Knight was also very sincere: "Yes. We did let many media participate in the report, and also promoted TNT to conduct a national broadcast of this game."

"We need to make a final assessment of Jack's strength. If he performs well in this game, we can of course cooperate with him without any scruples, and even buy shares at the share ratio you are satisfied with. However, if he doesn't perform so well, I think... you don't need to establish your own brand anymore. Of course, we will still quote you, but the price... is definitely not as high as the first quote."

"We are all businessmen, you should be able to understand."

Phil Knight said honestly.

Wu Su nodded and said, "Understandable, but after this game, I am worried that you are likely to lose the priority of buying shares. You are not the only smart person watching."

"You have great confidence in Jack?" Phil Knight asked.

"Of course, he is my son!" Wu Su said proudly.

The two looked at the players warming up below the stadium.

At this time, the TNT camera swept across the sidelines.

The audience in front of the TV immediately found Tai Lei Si Wu Fu Te, and beside her sat two men dressed in golf attire.

Kenny Smith's eyes were sharp, and he saw at a glance: "That is Jack's father, and Tai Lei Si Wu Fu Te's father. It seems that the rumors are true. Tai Lei Si Wu Fu Te has taken the lead in getting Jack."

"They have gained the approval of their families."

Kenny Smith firmly supported Fan Xi and Tai Lei Si Wu Fu Te being together. In his view, this is a symbol of a talented man and a beautiful woman.

In fact, there are also many people in front of the TV who support this golden boy and jade girl.

Of course, there are also many people who support Jenner and Fan Xi being together, and there are not a few who support Selena and Fan Xi being together.

This seems to be turning into a national CP movement.

Supporters of each CP combination have their unique and confident reasons.

When the camera swept to the other side, Charles Barkley saw Kendall Jenner, and he also became excited: "The Kardashian family's little Jenner is only eight meters away from Tai Lei Si Wu Fu Te, will they fight? I really look forward to this scene happening."

"And, if these two female stars who love Fan Xi see Fan Xi defeated by the two Clippers players with their own eyes, will they be disappointed in Fan Xi because of this?"

"After all, women are very realistic. Female stars are even more so."

Charles Barkley speculated with bad intentions.

His words made Kenny Smith next to him very angry. He refuted Barkley: "Don't always use your own tragic experience to talk about this matter. I know you are still brooding about Madonna. Rodman and Madonna hooked up back then, which gave you a great stimulus. You question female stars in the entertainment industry because you have never received their favor."

Barkley denied it, saying he had no interest in Madonna, and he said it was even more impossible for him to be jealous of Rodman.

But his denial made people hard not to float.

The TV camera subsequently captured the Lakers' die-hard fan director Nicholson, as well as the black movie emperor Denzel Washington, and Hollywood's former number one handsome guy Leonardo.

This is really a star-studded regular season.

Before the game was about to start, the camera once again captured a pair of celebrities wrapped very tightly.

Kanye West, Kim Kardashian.

At that time, Kenny Smith was complaining there: How could these two people sit together? And with their flamboyant personalities, why did they sit in the third row, sitting behind Tai Lei Si Wu Fu Te?

He was very strange, but this topic did not continue, because the game officially started!
