() Chen Jie did not expect that regarding the brawl at the United Center, the flagrant foul O'Neal committed against him, and the league's subsequent partial punishment decisions, he did not communicate with his teammates and coaches, nor talk to the media, but talked to
A Chinese girl studying in the United States talked about it.
Li Ming'er smiled lightly and said: "Actually, O'Neal's foul was not due to the situation on the court. He has been famous for so many years, and it is impossible for him to do such a risky thing just because he is temporarily behind in a game."
Nodding, Chen Jie actually thought so too. O'Neal's foul could indeed change the situation. After all, after injuring himself, the Bulls' fast break whirlwind could no longer play. However, as a superstar, he could not
He had to put down his face and do such a despicable thing because he was temporarily passive. The trigger may have been the verbal war before the game that angered him.
"I think it's because of the spat between the two of you before." Li Ming'er and Chen Jie had the same idea as expected.
However, what she said next made Chen Jie a little unhappy: "And this war of words started because of you. You are the active party, O'Neal is just the passive counterattack!"
"You mean, am I still to blame for this?" At this time, the two of them were still walking on the streets of Chicago, more like taking a walk, because Chen Jie's Chevrolet was still parked at the door of the wine shop. Before they sobered up,
He didn't dare to drive home. For drunk driving, he was not only afraid of punishment, but also afraid that something would happen to him. Chen Jie, who worked hard enough on the court, was careful enough about himself off the court because he had not forgotten that many players in his previous life had
He was injured in a car accident and even lost his career. He didn't want to be the next unlucky guy. However, after hearing this, Chen Jie felt a little angry in his heart and was unhappy to speak. He even wanted to turn around and drive home now.
, no more chatting with this girl.
"Of course not, I just want to say that as your current status, sometimes you should really pay attention to your words and deeds. I can understand how young people become famous with high spirits, but many geniuses are ruined because of this kind of arrogance.
My own!" Li Ming'er's words were more like advice. She didn't know if Chen Jie could listen to it, but she said it anyway. Because before coming to the United States, she had seen too many such things in China and her hometown.
People are dead. In official circles and business circles, many people are proud of their stunning success at the beginning, and then fall into despair after experiencing setbacks. She doesn't want such a thing to happen to Chen Jie.
She even wanted to tell Chen Jie that she came to the United States to study because of a very important person around her. Because of such things, she got drunk day and night, making her desperate, and then fled.
However, when the words came to her lips, Li Ming'er still held back. She didn't want to tell Chen Jie about her identity and past events yet.
Hearing Li Ming'er's words, Chen Jie's anger subsided a little. He also knew that although this girl spoke directly, she was really doing it for her own good.
But thinking of the scene that happened on the field, Chen Jie still couldn't let it go, and said coldly: "Is it right for him to do this? And I also want to thank him for teaching me a lesson?"
Li Ming'er shook his head and smiled: "Of course O'Neal did something wrong, but there is no need for you to be so angry. If it affects your emotions and plays with anger, how can you perform well in future games?"
"Then let's forget it?" Chen Jie also knew that what Li Min'er said was right. He chose to go out to drink to adjust because he felt bad today. It was hurt, but it was a small matter, but if he kept holding on to this kind of resentment
With such a mentality, my future performance will be compromised. I don't want to achieve the goals of Best Rookie of the Year, playoffs, etc.
"Things on the field should be settled on the field!" Li Min'er said lightly. Then, seeing Chen Jie frowning, she smiled and said, "Actually, it's good that there is such a thing. At least I let you know.
In fact, this league, like other places, is dominated by the jungle. Although you are now famous in Chicago with the Bulls, in the eyes of many people, you are still very small compared to O'Neal. You know, anywhere,
If you want to gain the respect of others, you must first make yourself strong!"
After Li Ming'er finished speaking, Chen Jie was shocked. This girl, who was only in her twenties, seemed to have experienced many things, and the words she spoke were so profound.
The weak eat the strong. Is this how a young girl evaluates the world?
Chen Jie was a little surprised. In addition to feeling that the alliance must be respected only if it is powerful, he also did not have such thoughts as Li Min'er in his life.
He even felt that compared with Li Ming'er, he seemed like a naive person living in an ivory tower. However, he had clearly experienced two lives!
Chen Jie's heart moved slightly, and he became curious about this girl.
"So, I feel that you should still regard this as an encouragement to yourself. Didn't he once create a Lakers dynasty? You can create a Bulls dynasty, and when that day comes, I think no one in this league will dare to do it again.
I underestimate you. No one dares to foul you violently, because the alliance's favoritism will definitely be given to you!" Li Ming'er seemed unaware of Chen Jie's strange behavior and continued to smile.
Chen Jie stared into her eyes and said with a smile: "Thank you. What you said makes sense. The weak eat the strong. It seems that I am a little naive. This alliance is only a stage suitable for the survival of the strong!"
After saying this, Chen Jie added in his heart, as a girl, I also know very well what kind of experience gave you such an understanding of the world.
"You're welcome, we are friends, aren't we?" Li Ming'er did not avoid Chen Jie's eyes this time.
"Yes!" Chen Jie smiled at her.
"Let's go, I'll take you home, it's very late!" The two looked at each other, Chen Jie looked down at the time and said.
"Are you able to drive?" Li Ming'er smiled.
It turns out that she also knew that another purpose of walking with her was to sober up. Chen Jie said this in his heart, turned around, walked back, and said with a smile: "Of course!"
The two went back to drink, and Chen Jie drove Li Ming'er back. She lived in a high-rise apartment in Chicago. Chen Jie originally wanted to send her there, but Li Ming'er politely refused.
Looking at Li Ming'er's back, Chen Jie's eyes gradually became misty. The jungle of the jungle preys on the strong, don't worry, I will make myself stronger!
After all, only the strong will gain the respect of others.
