Chapter 411: Attack of McGrady
After returning to the locker room and taking a shower, Yang Mo drove home. On the way home, Yang Mo received a text message from Lu Xueman. The content of the text message was about work arrangements. Yang Mo had to cooperate with several sponsors to participate in several activities during the All-Star period . The company would have someone to arrange it at that time. However, there was a heart-shaped pattern at the end of the text message.
This is Lu Xueman's love, and Yang Mo can feel it completely.
After returning home, Yang Mo called and found that Lu Xueman's phone had been turned off. She called the company to ask the assistant and found out that she had to fly across the ocean to China to deal with the cinema chain's matters.
Seeing Lu Xueman so busy, Yang Mo couldn't help but feel distressed and guilty. Emotionally, Yang Mo felt that she owed Lu Xueman a lot.
Just when Yang Mo felt guilty about Lu Xueman, Lu Xuefei had already swooped out, jumped on Yang Mo, and then said mysteriously: "Brother-in-law, guess what surprise I have prepared for you?"
"Hmm?" Yang Mo frowned and said seriously, "What are you doing? Don't mess around. If your sister starts to teach you a lesson, I won't help you to plead for her."
"Sister will definitely not know that my plan this time is foolproof. I have even thought of a name, the Ultimate Valentine's Day Party." Lu Xuefei looked proud: "I said I would help you solve the backyard problem, and I will definitely help you complete it perfectly."
"What? Just stop making trouble." Yang Mo said unhappily. He was already annoyed enough about this matter, and now that little devil Lu Xuefei wanted to get involved. By then, the situation would really become a mess.
"Brother-in-law, don't worry. I have arranged everything. And I have already finalized the personnel list. You just wait and enjoy the blessing of having so many wives." Lu Xuefei patted Yang Mo's belly and ran back to the room mysteriously. No one knew what she was doing.
After Lu Xuefei left, Yang Mo couldn't help but feel a headache. These messy multi-angle relationships were already confusing enough, and Xuefei wanted to come in to stir up trouble. Isn't this a prelude to making things even more chaotic?
No, I must not let her succeed. What ultimate Valentine's Day party, go to hell. I'm going to Dallas early tomorrow morning. Valentine's Day happens to be the Rookie Game. I won't go anywhere except the hotel. Let's see what she can do.
Yang Mo made up his mind and went back to his room to sleep. In order to prevent Lu Xuefei from coming in and making trouble in the middle of the night, Yang Mo simply locked the door.
She slept until dawn. After waking up and washing up, she found that Lu Xuefei was no longer in the room. Yang Mo ignored her, thinking that she should be planning her Valentine's Day plan. After breakfast, Yang Mo went straight to the airport and boarded the plane to Dallas accompanied by her assistant.
Since Nate Robinson also participated in the dunk contest and McGrady was also invited to attend some activities, the three of them took the same plane.
Along the way, Nate Robinson seemed a little excited. He kept asking Yang Mo for dunking ideas. Yang Mo suggested that he cosplay as Sun Wukong and dunk, but he still refused. In his aesthetic sense, he could not accept that kind of look.
Although Yang Mo didn't give him an idea that he could accept, he still readily agreed to the invitation to be his partner. He also hoped to see Little Potato win the dunk championship for the third time. Although the dunk contest has been almost ruined, it would be very cool to have the glory of being the dunk champion three times.
As for Nate Robinson's three-time slam dunk champion title, McGrady next to him seemed a little unimpressed. He couldn't help but tease Nate Robinson: "The first time you won the slam dunk champion, people thought it was a miracle, the second time they thought it was ordinary. If you win the slam dunk again this year, maybe people will get tired of you and think you ruined the style of the slam dunk contest."
If McGrady had teased Nate Robinson like this in the past, there would be no problem at all. After all, McGrady is a superstar, and Robinson is just a rotation player on the bench. But now, in Nate Robinson's mind, the two are on the same level. So, he quickly responded with confidence: "That's better than someone who has never won the dunk contest."
After saying this in a tit-for-tat manner, perhaps realizing that Yang Mo had never won the Slam Dunk Contest, he quickly added, "Of course, those who have never participated in the Slam Dunk Contest do not count. Without participation, there is no failure. But those who have participated but did not win, and who in turn mock the Slam Dunk Contest, are too ignorant."
The cautiousness towards Yang Mo and the strong counterattack against McGrady in this statement are in stark contrast. If Nate Robinson had simply retorted, McGrady would have just laughed it off. After being a superstar for so many years, he still has some tolerance. However, Nate Robinson's different treatment of McGrady is undoubtedly a bit suspicious of banishing McGrady.
This was a kind of silent hurt to the sensitive McGrady. So, he immediately got angry: "Do you have the capital to be arrogant in front of me? When I won the scoring title and the MVP, you were still wearing open-crotch pants."
"Put away your pride. Now you can't even get the next contract." Seeing that the relationship had been broken, Nate Robinson no longer held back and spoke even more sharply.
"You......" McGrady slapped his chair and stood up. Nate Robinson also stood up in response, looking like he was not afraid of a fight. Seeing this, Yang Mo quickly stood up and dragged the two of them. The staff next to them pulled them back to their seats. At this time, the two of them were still spewing all kinds of offensive words. Yang Mo didn't quite understand these street slangs. He just kept persuading them to calm down.
The two of them quarreled for nearly half an hour before they stopped because the plane encountered turbulence and it bumped dangerously for a long time before it slowly stabilized and the alarm was lifted. As the anxiety faded, the two of them no longer had the energy to quarrel.
Seeing this, Yang Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As soon as Yang Mo got off the plane and was still on the tarmac, Nike's Rolls-Royce car came to pick her up and drove her to the event site. Seeing this, Nate Robinson did not forget to mock McGrady: "See? This is a superstar."
"You..." McGrady was so angry that he raised his fist to hit Robinson again, but Robinson had already dodged nimbly, saying, "The old big star has a bad temper." He walked away quickly. McGrady was so angry that he wanted to hit someone, so he could only swing his fist in the air to vent his anger, which was quite sad, like a tiger in plain land being bullied by a dog.
There is no way, the NBA is like this, cruel and real. When you are high up, people are afraid of you and respect you. When you fall from the peak, the younger generation who know the rules may still respect you. He will trample on the troublemakers like Nate Robinson once he catches them. After all, it is much more rewarding to bully the superstars who have passed their prime than to bully the rookies and unknown people.
"Ask Adidas to contact the best trainer for me. I need to hurry up and train. I can't let a little player like this bully me." McGrady shouted to the assistant behind him with an extremely ferocious look.
The assistant couldn't help but be a little frightened when he heard this. He had never seen McGrady like this before, nor had he ever seen him actively and eagerly seek training. In his memory, McGrady was never the one who actively trained. He became a star completely because of his talent. Hard work and sweat were nothing to him.
I didn't expect that after being stimulated by Nate Robinson today, I would have changed my personality. If I could change my training attitude under this stimulation, although I can't be as omnipotent as in my peak period, I can at least maintain an average of 15+5 for three or four years.
While McGrady vowed to return to the top, Yang Mo had already gone to the Nike press conference and started a series of commercial activities.
Under the arrangement of the assistant, the intensive workload was not completed until 4 pm. This was a complete physical and mental test for Yang Mo. Compared with running announcements, he would rather play back-to-back away games.
But there is no way, because his commercial value is so high.
This is the aftermath of having strong appeal and the ability to attract money.
