When Wen Hao entered the hotel, the little boy was still banging his head and cursing "stupid brain", feeling annoyed that he didn't ask about Wen Hao's performance tonight.
At this time, a young man who looked like a couple who was passing by the hotel door came towards us.
The little boy was obviously very experienced and knew that such people were the easiest to get business from, so he immediately greeted him with a smile.
Sure enough, there was no need for him to say anything. The couple came to buy these things. They asked the little boy to hold the box flat, and they picked it up. They took one piece, looked at it for a moment, shook their heads, put it down, and picked it up again.
After a moment, he shook his head, put it down again, and said, "Why are these souvenirs of yours not clean?"
The little boy was a little aggrieved. Every time he sold souvenirs, he wiped them repeatedly before going out. It was impossible for them to be unclean. He said: "It's impossible. I care very much about these souvenirs, just like I collect them myself."
If the family is really short of money, I would be reluctant to sell it, how could it not be clean?"
The man pointed to a pendant with the All-Star logo and said, "Look, what is painted on it?"
The boy looked at it and laughed: "This is not something unclean, this is a signature."
"Hahahaha..." This time it was the man and woman's turn to laugh, "Signature? You said this mess is a signature? That's ridiculous, whose signature will be..."
At this point, the laughter of the man and woman stopped suddenly, as if they suddenly remembered something: "Is this... a Chinese signature?"
"Yes." The boy nodded, "Wen Hao is Chinese, and his signature is always in Chinese."
"Wen Hao!" The two young men shouted in surprise and disbelief, "You say it's Wen Hao?!"
"Of course, if you don't believe me, you can compare this signature with his usual signatures," the boy said.
"It's really Wen Hao! That's great. I've always wanted to get something signed by Wen Hao, but I never got the chance. Today I finally got the chance." The woman shouted in surprise.
The man thought about it and said, "However, something signed by Wen Hao should be expensive, right? Especially after he won the skills challenge tonight."
"What? He won the championship?" This time it was the boy's turn to be surprised.
"Of course, 25.8 seconds broke the historical record!"
"That's great, I will definitely watch the replay when I go back tonight." The boy was very excited.
The man changed the topic: "Hey, how much did you sell this for?" He took out a ring with the NBA logo.
The boy said: "Since we both like Wen Hao, then if you make an offer, I will never counter-offer."
"It's only $50, what do you think?" the man said.
"50 US dollars?" The boy was a little surprised. In the past, he had only sold each of these items for 5 US dollars at most, and that was because others gave him too much to see how pitiful he was. Unexpectedly, the price increased to 10 times tonight.
At this time, he finally understood why Wen Hao signed all those things for him, and his heart was suddenly filled with gratitude to Wen Hao.
Before the boy could turn around, the woman continued: "We know that after Wen Hao won the skills challenge tonight, the price of his signature items will definitely increase, but you see, we all like Wen Hao
, just because of this common liking, you can make it cheaper, just 50 US dollars, okay?"
Only then did the boy come to his senses, nodded and said, "Okay, because we both like Wen Hao, I'll give you $50."
…
After sending the couple away, the little boy was overjoyed. After leaving two souvenirs for himself, he started selling the rest at the door of the hotel: "Souvenirs signed by Wen Hao, souvenirs signed by Wen Hao, only 60 US dollars..."
Just twenty minutes later, the boy sold out all his souvenirs and ran home happily. Tonight, he had earned more than 700 US dollars, enough to buy NBA tickets.
Let’s talk about Wen Hao. The next night, he went to Madison Square Garden to watch the All-Star Game. He only played like an All-Star in the first half of the game, but in the second half, it was a real fight. And the theme of this year’s All-Star Game
It's the James-Durant debate again. No matter when and where they are in the past two years, James and Durant have always been compared by people.
James is facing the biggest challenge in recent years, and Durant has always wanted to surpass James. The two really clashed in the All-Star Game. In the end, James scored 38 points, 11 assists and 9 rebounds, another time
A near triple-double; while Durant scored 41 points, 7 assists and 6 extrapolations. The two were almost evenly matched.
But at the last moment of the game, Pickle from the Eastern Conference suddenly burst out and scored 8 points in a row, helping the Eastern Conference defeat the Western Conference. In the end, this year's All-Star Game mvp did not go to James, who was close to a triple-double.
Durant, who had the highest score in the game, was not taken off, but was taken away by Paul George, who stepped forward at the critical moment.
But it doesn't matter. James and Durant are not very interested in these things now. What they are interested in is the championship.
Wen Hao sat on the sidelines, watching the battle between the two peerless heroes, and his heart was filled with excitement. When can he join such a battle? This kind of exciting battle really made him yearn for it. A game.
, which benefited him a lot.
After the All-Star Game, Wen Hao returned to Houston. As soon as he got off the plane, he turned on his phone and received several text messages. Needless to say, they were all from Elena. Wen Hao really had a headache. Before, Elena
I didn’t reply much to the text messages I sent, thinking that Elena would give up and give up. But I didn’t expect that Elena was so persistent and still kept sending text messages to me. It seemed that it was necessary for me to talk to Eileen.
Na made it clear.
So Wen Hao sent a reply to Elena: See you at the Hooters restaurant at six o'clock in the afternoon.
On the other side, after Elena sent the text message, she did not stay by the phone waiting for Wen Hao to reply, because in the past few days, Wen Hao basically didn't reply to the text messages she sent, so she didn't hug him much this time.
hope.
But when she heard the text message and opened it and saw the message from Wen Hao, she was overjoyed and jumped up excitedly. This was the first time in such a long time that Wen Hao took the initiative to ask her to meet. It seems that she will meet tonight
Be sure to dress up well.
At six o'clock that night, Wen Hao showed up at the Owl Restaurant on time. Elena had been waiting there early.
Today, Elena is not wearing the white vest and orange hot pants they usually wear at work. Instead, she is wearing a dark green sweater on the upper body and very casual jeans on the lower body. She looks very casual, but this outfit
The clothes matched with his long golden hair gave him a unique look.
When Wen Hao saw Elena, he felt that Elena seemed to be more beautiful than before. But this was only what he was saying, and he did not say it out loud. Moreover, he did not come here today to see beautiful women. What he wanted to say was business.
Elena pulled Wen Hao to sit down, her face full of excitement, and said, "This is the first time you have taken the initiative to ask me out since we have known each other for a month."
Wen Hao looked a little apologetic and said: "I'm sorry, I'm too busy with work and training and don't have much time..."
"No need to explain," Elena interrupted Wen Hao, "I understand. You NBA players are all like this. Of course I know, but I'm really happy that you can treat me to dinner today."
Seeing Elena's excited look, Wen Hao couldn't bear it for a moment. He couldn't bear to disappoint Elena, and couldn't bear to see the disappointed tears of this always enthusiastic girl.
But thinking of his goal of winning the championship and his dream of basketball, Wen Hao finally gritted his teeth, did not look into Elena's eyes, but looked down at the dining table and said: "Elena, let's tell the truth. I am now
The only thing I want to do is win the championship. I won’t consider anything else. So, so... don’t send me messages again. Even if you do, I won’t reply. You understand me.
What do you mean?"
Elena is not a fool. When Wen Hao said this, he naturally knew what Wen Hao meant, and her heart was struck by lightning. But she still held on to a glimmer of hope: "Wen Hao, there is no time now, what about after winning the championship? Not yet.
Time? I can wait until you win the championship."
Wen Hao was stunned, he didn't expect Elena to be so infatuated.
Elena looked at Wen Hao's face and said, "Wen Hao, look into my eyes."
Wen Hao felt a little guilty for rejecting Elena, but when Elena said this, he couldn't bear to let her down again, so he immediately raised his head and looked into Elena's dark blue eyes.
There seemed to be tears in Elena's dark blue eyes like lakes. She said: "Wen Hao, let me tell you, I like you. Have you ever liked me?"
It's rare for oriental girls to be so direct, and Wen Hao can't adapt to it. To be honest, no man wouldn't like a girl as beautiful and passionate as Elena. Wen Hao also likes Elena, although only a little bit.
If it were other NBA players, they would have hooked up with Elena by now. But in order not to be distracted by other things and focus on fighting for the championship, Wen Hao can only refuse. And Yu Song also told him
, you must pay attention to your life style.
After all, Wen Hao is Chinese. As long as he plays well, his market value in China will be extremely huge in the near future. And Chinese culture is not very tolerant of lifestyle issues. So in order to protect Wen Hao's
In terms of market value, it is best not to have scandals like those of American players.
Between these two points, Wen Hao finally decided to be cruel, raised his head, and said firmly to Elena: "I'm sorry, I never liked you."
When Elena heard this, her dark blue eyes were already filled with tears.
Wen Hao withdrew his gaze and quickly said "I'm sorry, I'm leaving first" and quickly left the Owl Restaurant. If he stayed for a while longer, he was afraid that he would not be able to bear Elena's tears.
However, Wen Hao underestimated Elena's persistence. When he walked out of the restaurant, Elena looked at his back outside the window, bit her lip, and after a moment, silently said: "Wen Hao, I will not give up."
