"CCTV, CCTV, dear viewers, we are very happy to bring you the seventh game of this year's American Professional Basketball Tournament NBA Finals in the studio, through satellite signals, between the Houston Rockets and the New York Knicks.
Sri Lanka team.
The first three games were tied three to three... The people commentating with me today are our old friends Teacher Xu and Teacher Su..."
On the night of the finals, Ronald sat at home and watched the NBC broadcast. This year, the TV station on the other side of the Pacific also began to broadcast the NBA finals live. The basketball foundation there is very good, but there is not much money.
Five years ago, NBA Commissioner David Stern blew cold air at the door of the TV station and delivered video tapes to the door. The sales strategy finally bore fruit. In recent years, the TV station with the most viewers in the world will broadcast every game.
15-minute game highlights. This year, with the help of the China-US Cultural Exchange Company, satellite signals were purchased to broadcast the playoffs live. Hundreds of millions of young people experienced the charm of professional basketball for the first time.
After the opening, Ronald felt bad. Olajuwon of the Rockets was very active, and he was heavily guarded by the Knicks, but Olajuwon, who was very sensitive, could always pass the ball out at the last moment.
Let your teammates dunk or hit a three-pointer.
On the contrary, the Knicks played very reservedly. Starks, who missed the buzzer-beating win in the last game, was particularly reserved. After passing the defender, he did not dunk, but just layup lightly.
It seems that the defeat in the last game also had a great impact on the players.
The Knicks lost 21-22 in the first quarter, and also lost by one point 22-23 in the second quarter. Except for Ewing, everyone else in the Knicks team seemed to be very nervous, and the scores were all very thrilling, which was heartwarming to watch.
Pick it up. But the Rockets, under the leadership of Olajuwon, gradually gained momentum. Olajuwon passed the Knicks defenders with several balls, and even scored a two plus one...
In every back and forth, the Knicks and Rockets were actually on par, but at the most critical moment, the Knicks seemed to be missing out.
The most irritating thing is that the Knicks' goals are often delivered with great pains during muscle collisions, and finally rely on a difficult shot, and the ball has to bounce on the rim a few times before they get two hard-earned goals.
point.
The Rockets scored very easily. Olajuwon made a few fake moves and then passed out. Whether it was Sam Cassel or Robert Horry, he scored three points with a hollow hole in the net.
"Why……"
Ronald sighed throughout the game, losing one or two points in each quarter. It seemed tense and intense, but in fact the Rockets had always been in a psychological advantage. Some of the Knicks' key players were mentally unstable.
I believe I can win the championship.
In the last quarter, Olajuwon jumped up in the air and feinted again, passing the ball to his teammates outside the three-point line. The four guards and forwards were waiting to eat what their All-Star center gave them in this game.
Three point shot.
The Rockets led by eight points in the final minute, and their head coach Tomjanovich raised his hands in the air and was already celebrating the victory.
Pat Riley, the head coach of the Knicks, can only cross his hands on his chest, comb his hair straight back, and wear a meticulous suit with gold buttons. Finally, he directed the Knicks and went crazy in the last forty seconds.
Even with three-point shots, the disadvantage could not be restored. In the end, they lost 84:90 and lost the finals.
When Ronald saw the last random shot, he was so angry that he turned off the TV. The opponent's head coach Tomjanovich was not as good-looking as the Knicks' head coach. His suit was still from the 1980s.
The old style, the tie and the ID tag are intertwined. Compared to Pat Riley, he looks like a redneck from rural Texas.
But no matter how Ronald sees him, this person will know how to mobilize the players to make them play smoother and happier on the court. It is not like the Knicks, where every player is like a part on a big machine.
The problem is that it is not running smoothly, and it can only be carried on.
"I would rather he be the coach of New York..." Ronald muttered to himself. Of course he knew this was unlikely. Coaches who won championships rarely leave the team.
"Looking on the bright side, fortunately there is no OJ to disturb this scene..."
Diane, who was watching the game with Ronald, was already yawning.
"Hahaha..." Ronald was also amused. The news about the OJ case in the past two days was still very popular, but there was no dramatic scene of escaping from the LAPD pursuit, so there was no "invasion" of other TV programs.
.
However, this does not mean that this case has not received national attention. A few days ago, several maids, gardeners, and bodyguards at home, and because of the live broadcast of the O.J. Simpson case, the TV station canceled their favorite "Grudges"
Dissatisfied with the replay.
Today, these people have gathered in front of the TV to watch regular updates about the O.J. Simpson case every day.
Just two days ago, prosecutors in Los Angeles canceled another grand jury that was supposed to decide whether to indict O.J. for his double murder (the first grand jury decided to indict him for murder).
.
The reason is that the news is too hot, and the judge believes that such large-scale hype about whether Simpson will be charged with double murder will inevitably lead to unfair situations in jury selection.
With the popularity of television media, not to mention in Los Angeles, California, the United States, or even other big cities in the world, it is completely impossible to find 24 ordinary people who have not been affected by media reports.
In order to ensure that OJ could get a fair trial, the prosecution's small moves were cancelled, the second grand jury was eliminated, and a court hearing was used to decide the charges for prosecution.
Because of the huge impact of the case, the hearing was broadcast live on major television networks. Simpson swore to the camera that he was absolutely, absolutely, 100% innocent.
Simpson's two careers obviously also taught him how to use the media to increase his leverage. As an actor, Simpson knew how to speak in front of the camera. After he denied being the murderer in court, he also spoke to the media afterwards.
, after he is cleared by the court, he will make catching the real culprit who killed his ex-wife Brown his top priority in life.
Another job as a football player earned him the most advertising endorsements for a black man in American history, including orange juice, rental cars, and other mass consumer products.
This made him understand that a good lawyer can fight for the best interests of his business. So Simpson also began to look for his own defense lawyer.
His own friend, Kardashian, mainly acted as his senior consultant, while the real criminal defense lawyer chose Robert Shapiro. This lawyer is best at obtaining out-of-court settlements in criminal cases, and he knows how to organize
Defense strategy, and which foreign aid to introduce at critical moments to enrich the defense team.
The first person he invited was legal procedure expert Alan Dershowitz. Analysis by the gossip newspaper "National Enquirer" said that he had a very far-reaching plan because such a case is likely to be appealed...
…
In addition, the prosecutors identified Martha Clark as the lead prosecutor in the case. It was the National Enquirer, a gossip newspaper, that took the lead in summarizing her background information.
In 1988, she presided over the prosecution of the murder of Rebecca Shafer. Rebecca Shafer was a TV actress who was stalked by a fan in 1987 and was eventually murdered.
Martha Clark had a good image in that case that also attracted much media attention. In the end, the media generally attributed the criminal to being brought to justice, so this time the Los Angeles prosecutors also wanted to use a person with experience in such high-profile cases.
Experienced prosecutor. In addition, the victim is a woman, Martha Clark can get more sympathy from the television media than a male prosecutor.
The media's enthusiasm continued unabated, and it quickly divided into two camps.
The Los Angeles Sentinel, a newspaper in the black community of Los Angeles, has always believed that OJ Simpson was framed. The LAPD saw a black man marrying a white man and his ex-wife was murdered after the divorce. Well, it must have been done by a black man.
!
They also made special reports on various unjust cases of black people that had occurred in Los Angeles since the 1950s, calling on black people to unite and avenge OJ.
Magazines for black people, "Squirt" and "Black Essence", also complained about the "glorious" history of the LAPD. They attacked the "so-called" evidence disclosed by the media, which cannot withstand scrutiny, and emphasized that the police in the case
racial bias, and prosecutors’ unfair treatment of historically black people.
Many black local radio stations also began to blast all day long, saying that Nicole Brown had cheated on her during marriage, and that another victim, Goldman, was her lover. This was all unconfirmed information, and black listeners were not aware of it anyway.
Favor OJ.
In short, their feeling is that the white people in Los Angeles have been harassing us for so many years, and many white people have been acquitted of killing black people. The old racial discrimination will definitely happen this time.
Some mainstream white media began to report on Simpson's disgraceful history. For example, the report record of his repeated domestic violence against his ex-wife Nicole Brown was also uncovered by the media.
There are also multiple accusations from other white women about his harassment and violent tendencies, how O.J. Simpson is a man with a history of violence, how he abandoned his first wife and finally married Nicole Brown... and other scandals
All were exposed.
Anyway, no matter whether these arguments are justified or not, the final comment will be indirect and transferred to the violent nature of OJ Simpson himself.
This is very reminiscent of the denigration of black people in America during the era of slavery and apartheid. They have strong limbs, simple minds, violent tendencies, and the inability to control their tempers, etc.
Finally, Ronald discovered that the most neutral and professional report on this matter came from the gossip newspaper "National Enquirer".
They started by reporting on various gossips, so they naturally know how to screen hot topics, determine whether they are rumors or well-founded, how to gradually release information to attract attention, and how to balance the reports of both parties to keep the audience interested.
Ronald also reads it every day and really enjoys it.
…
"Hi Tom, Sally..."
The next day, many media reporters from the entertainment industry were welcomed to the screening room inside Paramount Pictures. At a time when the whole country was hotly discussing the O.J. Simpson case, the premiere of "Forrest Gump" attracted a lot of attention.
There are a few entertainment reporters who have other interview interests.
The first thing Ronald saw was Tom Hanks and Sally Field. Although they played mother and son in the movie, you could say they were a screen couple when they dressed up.
"Hey, Ronald, do you think OJ really did it?"
Everyone wants to read gossip. Even Tom Hanks, a well-known good person in the industry, couldn't help but ask Ronald if he had any gossip.
"Hey, you two big boys, don't talk about such scary things..." Sally Field used the unique tone of Southern women and quietly hit Hanks and Ronald on the arms a few times.
Down.
"Yeah, Sally is right, we won't talk about this. When the reporters come later, someone will definitely ask you about OJ. Don't give any answers. This matter is very bad. I even modified the final version for this reason.
Version……"
"Ah? You modified the copy? Didn't you delete my close-up?" Sally Field pretended to be surprised.
"Of course not, I only deleted a few scenes, especially those of Dr. Martin Luther King." Ronald quickly warned them a few more times.
"Is it so troublesome?" Tom Hanks didn't expect to be so sensitive.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "In short, don't answer relevant questions at this premiere. On other occasions, we should listen to our agents..." Ronald said a few more words before going to the front.
Say hello to all the leading actors and guests.
After a while, Goldie Hawn and her boyfriend Kurt Russell also came. Goldie Hawn and Sally Field had a very good relationship. The two women chatted and praised Ronald.
gave her daughter a chance to appear on the stage.
"I didn't know Ronald was so easy to talk to. If I had known earlier, I would have sent my relatives there..."
The conversation between the two caught the attention of Paramount CEO Shirley Lansing, who also came over to chat. Together with Diane, the four ladies chatted happily for a while, attracting the attention of many photographers.
The focus of the camera murders countless films.
After waiting for a while, Robin White, who played Jenny, and her boyfriend Sean Penn also came. Robin White naturally found the circle of women and left Sean Penn to Ronald.
"I said, I heard that Tom's performance in this movie is very enjoyable. Do you hope to win the best actor? My agent told me that I have to find a mentally retarded character to play in order to win the best actor."
Sean Penn was still a little bit upset that Forrest Gump didn't cast him. Originally, he wouldn't have come to the premiere. But Robin White said that the performance of the leading actor Tom Hanks was amazing and Oscar-level.
Only then did he get the idea to come over and take a look.
"Don't be ridiculous, Tom won the best actor award last year..."
"Ha, what you're saying is..." Sean Penn laughed awkwardly. Indeed, it is rare in the history of the Oscars to win the Best Actor Award for consecutive years. "But is it easy to win by playing a person with low intelligence?"
Give some prizes?”
"There are precedents for mentally retarded people to win awards, such as Rain Man. But there are also many movies starring mentally retarded people every year..." Ronald's answer means that you, Sean Penn, should stop worrying about being the best actor and just act in the type you are good at.
alright.
"Hi, Billy!"
Ronald saw Billy Crystal in the distance and said hello and walked over.
"Ronald..." Billy Crystal also came with his wife.
"Billy, Ronald..." The photographer saw two actors and directors who had worked together and asked them to stand together for a photo.
"Billy, Billy, what do you think about the OJ Simpson case? You knew OJ before. Do you think he is material for a murderer?"
Sure enough, the reporter came up with a malicious question.
"Hey you, this is the premiere of my movie, don't ask irrelevant questions."
Ronald directly expressed his dissatisfaction loudly and asked them to restrain themselves.
"I'm a reporter from Liberty Daily, so Ronald, do you think OJ will be guilty in the final trial?"
Ronald took a deep look at the reporter. Any newspaper with names like Liberty, National, Militia, etc., were mostly from the far right advocating white supremacy. These people would seize the opportunity to ask celebrities these questions.
Try to drag them down and create some sensational news.
"You may not have been to high school, but let me tell you, it was taught in high school general courses that we Americans are protected by the system, and everyone is innocent before trial..."
As he spoke, Ronald waved his hand and had someone escort the bastard out.
