174. Are you looking for him or not me?

After 20 hours of sailing, the cruise ship docked at a port in Los Angeles.

Those who have work to do get off the ship to work, while others either stay on the ship with their families or take their families to the shore to play.

There are also single people who want to experience the surrounding industries of Hollywood...

Liu Xiu has work this afternoon and doesn't have time to go with Randolph, Little Flying Squirrel and the others to help the outlaws see the world.

Liu Xiu felt that outlaws were a breath of fresh air among high school students.

This guy still lives in an apartment. In addition to training, he usually plays games and console games. He stays at home alone when he has nothing to do.

There are only two cars in the family. One is a second-hand car I bought when I first arrived in Portland. On my 19th birthday in mid-September, I bought a sports car for myself.

I heard that part of the remaining money is sent to his parents every month, and the rest is used by this high school student to buy national bonds.

Don't ask, just ask: it's stable, you can sell it anytime you need cash, and you don't have to worry about the bank going bankrupt.

Liu Xiuxian and Tianzun went to the hotel arranged by the league for the players participating in the All-Star Weekend to report, take makeup photos... and other chores, and then went to three venues to do promotional activities.

After working all afternoon, I arrived at the vacation villa rented by my uncle and aunt Qing'er at 8 o'clock in the evening.

Seeing her brother come back with a baseball cap as a gift, Qing'er went back to cooking. Her aunt asked: "How was today's promotional activity?"

Liu Xiu was very sensible: "I feel like I'm the most handsome guy in the room, thanks to the clothes you made."

"It's because you are handsome... you are a red flower, and the clothes I make are just green leaves. Your family has good genes. I remember back then, I just went to China to travel, but my uncle deceived me.

…”

here we go again.

Ever since she was pregnant with her second child, my aunt always recalled the past whenever she disagreed.

The uncle ran away to the kitchen to help his precious daughter cook. He was also a chef.

Liu Xiu listened to the "love story of how his uncle abducted the American aunt's aunt" for a long time. Finally, his cell phone rang!

Head coach Maurice Cheeks arrived in Los Angeles and paid a visit to the place sponsored by Liu Xiu.

When guests come, my aunt becomes normal and goes to the kitchen... to ask her daughter to prepare drinks and snacks.

Morris-Cheeks did not come to Los Angeles on a cruise ship, but stayed in Portland to communicate with the management. He only came this afternoon. Flying is much faster than taking a cruise ship.

After some pleasantries, Maurice Cheeks got straight to the point: "Warden, you can play with peace of mind. As before, the management will not interfere with the game."

"In other words, coach, you may still be the last to know about the transaction?"

Maurice Cheeks pressed his chest and gasped... He successfully healed the head coach, and Liu Xiumu happily accepted the healing value.

Qing'er came out with snacks, and Maurice Cheeks came back to life and said: "I have communicated with them. They just want to trade Rashid to warn other players."

"What a luxurious warning." Liu Xiu complained.

"It is very luxurious, but if you have 20 billion, I think you will be more luxurious in hobbies."

"That's true," Liu Xiu accepted this statement and asked, "Coach, how much do you think we will be affected? What should we do after the All-Star Weekend?"

"I knew you must be the first to think about this...because..."

"I'm afraid of trouble!" (said in unison)

Both of them couldn't help laughing.

After laughing, Liu Xiu said: "I don't know what the future will be like. I want to seize the present and create a better future for myself."

Maurice Cheeks likes Liu Xiu's attitude very much.

Some young people, after being traded or their friends were traded, give up on themselves and want to make the management regret it...

But in the end, the only one I regret is myself.

Management is the group of people who know best that ‘players come and go, talents rise and fall’.

Only by making yourself more valuable can you truly do things that make those people regret.

Maurice Cheeks asked: "McDyess will be joining soon, do you know that?"

"Yes, he and I have the same agent."

"First of all, we need to accept the fact."

"Raheem + Harrington + McDyess are not as effective as Rasheed alone?"

"Yes, it seems you know this very well, but there is good news. Raheem and McDyess are both very good players, from character to strength.

It's a little troublesome for Harrington, but we have you..."

"Coach, what do you mean?"

"Ha ha……"

"..."

"..."

While eating dinner, Liu Xiu and Maurice Cheeks communicated on many aspects including team relations, lineup, tactical framework... until early in the morning, Maurice Cheeks was arranged to stay in the guest room.

We also made an appointment to communicate more if we have time in the next few days. The rest of the coaching staff will also come to Los Angeles tomorrow.

What Liu Xiu didn't know was that after the trade, the head coach communicated with the players like this. Only the core and most critical players in the eyes of the head coach had this kind of treatment...

…

…

February 11th, the second day after Liu Xiu came to Los Angeles.

Tomorrow, the All-Star Weekend begins.

There is still work today, but it is much easier than yesterday. There is a promotional event this morning.

But this endorsement cost more than the three endorsements yesterday that required publicity activities.

Sneaker endorsement!

At 9 o'clock in the morning, Liu Xiu attended AJ's press conference.

AJ officially announced that it has officially started the production of Warden series and General series sneakers.

Bill Duffy must have participated in this kind of thing.

Bill Duffy is sure of one thing - Liu Xiu's unclear future in Portland has not affected the importance that brands attach to his commercial value.

'Yao must truly understand his own value...' Bill Duffy thought in his heart.

…

After the press conference, Liu Xiu went to participate in a promotional event for Jordan's replica sneakers.

The publicity effect is... average.

Not long ago, he just defeated the OK group, and there are fans in the Los Angeles basketball community who are very jealous when they see him.

This is normal. James' publicity in Los Angeles yesterday was even worse.

After the promotional event, Liu Xiu was taken to a club.

"Linda, who are we going to see?"

"Someone you'd be excited to see."

"Cang XX?"

"Ah? What?"

"Ahem, it's nothing. Linda, please tell me who you want to see first, okay?"

The facial recognition was effective. Linda, who was in charge of AJ's usual work and business contact with Liu Xiu, came to Liu Xiu's side and Liu Xiu leaned over.

Linda whispered: "When there is a camera shooting later, you must act surprised...it's our little boss Michael Jordan..."

"!" Liu Xiu, who was originally lazy, immediately became angry.

After a while, the two came to a terrace of the club, where two people were cutting cigars.

Jordan and Barkley!

Liu Xiu didn't expect Barkley to be there, but when he saw Jordan himself, he was even more surprised than when he heard his name just now.

The two of them have received notification that people are coming.

Seeing Liu Xiu's surprised look, Jordan was very pleased... Then he saw Liu Xiu taking out his mobile phone and making a call...

Seeing Liu Xiu talking on the phone excitedly and saying things he didn't understand, Jordan looked like a black man with a question mark face.

Linda, a staff member who knew some Chinese, translated to Jordan. What Liu Xiu said was probably - "Dad, I saw Jordan, I will help you get his autograph!"

Jordan was very happy when he heard this. He seems to have a lot of fans in China... But thinking about it this way, this rookie might not be his fan?

The same idea came to Buckley's side, and he immediately became happy.

As AJ's junior boss, Jordan's first meeting with the brand's future number two was completely different from what he had imagined...
