Chapter 214

After winning this game against the Dallas Mavericks, the Los Angeles Lakers completely opened up the gap with the second-place New Orleans Hornets. With an impressive record of only losing one game, the Los Angeles Lakers occupy the first place in the Western Conference.

Not only are they first in the Western Conference, they even have the best record in the entire NBA.

This undoubtedly put the Lakers in the spotlight for a while, and it goes without saying that Lu Yusheng has completely become a figure that makes the entire NBA league crazy.

The commercial value is rising, and various commercial endorsement contracts are coming one after another.

"Hey, Lu, I think you should think about it again. This burger company really offers a lot. And it doesn't have too many additional conditions." Meng Xia said to Lu Yusheng on the phone.

"Please, I'm an athlete and I basically don't eat these things. If you ask me to endorse this thing, isn't this deceiving consumers?" Lu Yusheng refused.

"Who cares about this thing," Meng Xia said, "They only care that it has your picture printed on it. It's enough that you can be seen eating that thing in the advertisement. Who cares whether you eat it or not?"

"I still don't think it's good."

"You don't usually use condoms, why do you want to endorse that thing?" Meng Xia asked.

"Isn't that what you arranged for me?"

"But you didn't object at the time." Meng Xia said, "Why can't you do it when you get to Hamburg?"

"Don't I think that stuff is good for preventing AIDS, so I endorsed it."

"The Burger Company donates hamburgers to homeless people every month. This is also a contribution to the problem of human food and clothing. Why can't you see it?"

"I can't tell you anything, but Meng Xia, aren't there too many endorsements recently?" Lu Yusheng said.

"It's quite a lot," Meng Xia said, "but I arranged it completely according to your previous request. There are no publishing activities, no promotional activities, just pure endorsements, shooting some advertising planes and commercials, that's all.

"

"But there are not so many endorsements that are valuable," Lu Yusheng said. "Now my rest time is basically shooting commercials. I am always looking for camera sense when sleeping or dreaming. Meng Xia, this is definitely not possible. I am too lacking."

It’s training time.”

"I know, but there is no good way. Brother, you have become so popular recently. There are too many merchants looking for you to sign contracts, and the conditions they offer are indeed too good. I really don't

"The reason for rejection," Meng Xia said, "I have to be considerate of you, and you have to be considerate of me, brother. It can be said that they are holding up a check and begging to sign a contract with you, and the conditions are casually mentioned. Do you know

,How tempting is this kind of condition for an agent? I really can’t help it.”

"Calm down, friend." Lu Yusheng said, "I'm still telling you what I said before. Money is not enough, but we have to be clear about our goals, and we can't reverse priorities. We have to know what I want now.

What is."

"Oh, I'm sorry, Lu, when you see so many checks dazzling in front of my eyes, you have to consider my feelings. I can't even think about what you want. I can only think about what I want." Meng Xia laughed.

road.

"Okay, what you've earned this year is almost enough to spend half your life, right?" Lu Yusheng said, "People need to be satisfied."

"Then there is still the rest of my life." Meng Xia said, "Lu, I have been imagining a possibility these past two days."

"What's possible?"

"Is it possible that we just make money for this year, and then we relax a little bit about basketball, and then we make enough money in this year, and there will never be enough money to spend," Meng Xia said.

"Relax about basketball? Then how can I attract these endorsement contracts?" Lu Yusheng said.

"That's why I said one year," Meng Xia said, "Think about it, those endorsement contracts are basically signed for one year. In this year, no matter how bad your performance is, there is nothing they can do about it.

, we can only give money obediently, so we will accept more big contracts this year to make enough money for the rest of our lives, and then we will retire and enjoy life. What a wonderful thing this is? Right?"

Lu Yusheng smiled, "It's a good idea, but what I want to tell you is, Meng Xia, we still have a long way to go in life. We need to have a long-term view, and we can't be short-sighted and focus on the petty gains in front of us."

"Please, do you call this petty profit?" Meng Xia said, "If you think about it carefully, brother, you won that manor by relying on these petty profits."

"Okay, if you like living here, I will give it to you. But Meng Xia, this matter ends here. You are not allowed to mention it again. The Christmas game is about to begin. This year we are playing the Suns. I have to

Prepare well for this game, so don't bother me with these contract matters in the past few days."

"Suns? Aren't you playing the Suns in your first game? Aren't they your losers? What else do you need to prepare for?" Meng Xia said.

"Come on, that was the beginning of the season. It has been two months since now. Every team is changing and maturing. We beat the Suns at the beginning purely because their season has just started. Everything

We are all still unfamiliar, so if we fight now, we may not be able to win again."

"Aren't you both number one in the league? Who will be your opponent?"

"Okay, okay, I won't tell you anymore. Anyway, I have to prepare for the Christmas war these days. I really don't have the time or energy to deal with those contracts and endorsements. Just push them away if you can." Lu Yusheng said.

, and was about to hang up the phone in a hurry.

"Wait a minute, Lu Yusheng." Meng Xia suddenly said on the other end.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?" Lu Yusheng said, "Don't talk about the contract anymore. I really have to prepare for the Christmas war."

"Christmas, do you only have the Christmas war?" Meng Xia asked.

"Then what else?" Lu Yusheng was stunned for a moment and suddenly said, "I almost forgot, I have to meet Avril. She must really want to see me at Christmas. Oh, by the way, I have to follow my mother.

Go back and meet, this is very important, do you want to remind me of this?"

"Get out of here, hang up."

"Okay, okay, I know you are alone in a foreign land," Lu Yusheng said. "You do need someone to accompany you, but I really don't have the resources to do anything. I may only be able to see Avril once. Even my mother may

I can’t even care about it.”

"Forget it, I guess she might not want to see you that much." Meng Xia said coldly.

"Nonsense, it's been a long time since we last met." Lu Yusheng said, "Okay, don't feel unbalanced anymore, you'd better hurry up and find a companion for your Christmas. If that doesn't work, you can only come and see her for Christmas.

My game fuels me, it's so boring."

"Mind your own affairs," Meng Xia said, "I have found my companion, and I will have a fulfilling Christmas."

"Oh? Is there something wrong with Miss Meng?" Lu Yusheng said with a smile, "Can you introduce the young man from some family to me?"

"You know him." Meng Xia said.

"Do I know him?" Lu Yusheng was stunned, "My classmate? Or..."

"You will know when the time comes." Meng Xia said, "Okay, I still have work to deal with, you can do yours."

With that, Meng Xia hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Lu Yusheng thought carefully. Meng Xia found a boyfriend he knew?

If he knew him, could he be his classmate?

But how could Meng Xia know his classmates? This makes no sense at all.

Then he might be an NBA player.

Then who could it be?

Lu Yusheng felt a little confused, because Meng Xia had been very busy recently, so how could she have time to contact NBA players? She had never heard her mention it.

Of course, for Lu Yusheng, this is actually a good thing.

After all, Meng Xia has always been alone. Apart from him, the only ones here during the holidays are his colleagues.

As for those colleagues, they had only known her for a short time.

I definitely can't spend the holidays with him, he also has his own life.

Lu Yusheng had been urging Meng Xia to find a boyfriend before. Anyway, at least he would have a companion, but this girl always refused. Lu Yusheng also knew that she probably still had some thoughts about him, so Lu Yusheng

I hope she can find a boyfriend quickly, and Lu Yusheng doesn't want to delay her.

Although Lu Yusheng never owed Meng Xia money, Lu Yusheng didn't know why, but he always felt a little owed to her. This may be because Lu Yusheng owed her emotionally.

Although this was not Lu Yusheng's fault, the girl did fall in love with him because he deeply loved Avril in his heart, so he backed away from her.

Therefore, for Lu Yusheng, as long as he can find a boyfriend, Lu Yusheng himself is absolutely blessed.

In the following time, Lu Yusheng began to prepare for the Christmas war.

The arrangement of the NBA is always like this. After you became enemies in the playoffs last season, the next season, he will arrange all the games for you, including the opening game and Christmas Day game.

In fact, there is not much historical grudge between the Lakers and Suns. It is purely because last season, the Lakers were overturned when leading 3:1. Although the Lakers are indeed holding their breath this offseason,

But when the game started, the Lakers defeated the Suns in the first game, which made everyone feel bad.

Therefore, in this Christmas game, the whole team does not have much momentum to win this game. Firstly, the Lakers have indeed won too much recently. Since the start of the game, in addition to losing to the Spurs,

, won all other games.

Therefore, everyone seems to have become accustomed to the feeling of winning the next game, so there is no urge to win too urgently.

Even Zen Master Phil Jackson did not ask everyone to train in advance. Yesterday, it was revealed by the media that he had dinner with Jerry Buss and Jenny Buss. Moreover, the dinner seemed to be very unpleasant.

Phil Jackson didn't know why, but he and Bass had a quarrel at the dinner table, and Bass left the table angrily.

However, judging from his state, he did not seem to be affected too much by this incident. He was still cheerful, just like he was on the court. No matter what the situation was on the court, he was still happy.

Everything is stable.

There is only one person who is still training hard, and that is Kobe.
