Chapter 389 Courage to Express
The next morning, there will be a concert at the Staples Center——Taylor Swift’s National Concert just came to Los Angeles. Due to the conflict with the Lakers’ home game, the time to use the venue was given up and changed to Held in the morning.
Taylor Swift is very popular in the United States. Even if she held a concert in the morning, she still attracted many fans. The venues that can accommodate about 2 people have already sold out the tickets for the concert.Kobe Bryant and Xu Tian were invited to be the concert guests, helping Taylor Swift do a warm-up performance.
Because of this incident, after Xu Tian and Alice had bathed in love several times, they closed their eyes and rested their minds, and started regular training at three o'clock in the morning, trying to complete the complicated training items as soon as possible.
Alice's face was flushed, and she fell asleep contentedly, without interfering with Xu Tian's intensive training in the middle of the night.
Early the next morning, "People" magazine published Xu Tian's interview, which immediately attracted the attention of fans, and the sales volume increased a lot compared to the previous issues.
The content of the interview mainly revolved around the Chinese market and what kind of impact Xu Tian can bring to basketball. During the interview, Xu Tian remained humble and attributed the credit for the Chinese market to Yao Ming, and believed that Curry, who opened this era with strong shooting ability, was the driving force behind this era.Of course, these are all facts, but what Xu Tian said has a different meaning.
The favorite part of the interview for Los Angeles fans is when Xu Tian talked about the reasons for choosing the No. 1 jersey, and why there has been a huge change after gaining a firm foothold in Los Angeles.
Q (question): As we all know, D'Angelo Russell wore the No. 1 jersey before the Rockets-Lakers trade.Did you choose No. 1 because the outside world said that you wanted to prove that you were stronger than the original No. 1?
A (answer): Actually not, I originally wanted to choose 8 or 24 (laughs).The real reason is that I think it's time to make a change, and Tracy McGrady, who I respect a lot, wears No. 1, and this has the meaning of No. 1, plus the Los Angeles Lakers' No. There is not much legendary history, so I chose this jersey number.
Q: Do you want to completely create your own history in the Lakers?
A: The past of the Lakers is too glorious. The 16 championship banners above the stadium and the large number of retired jerseys all clearly show this.Once you're here, it's hard not to dream of hanging your jersey above the arena one day.
The editor-in-chief of the magazine then blessed Xu Tian a few words, and then talked about his changes.
Q: I still remember the beginning of the season, when you were nicknamed "the tearer of the locker room". It was rumored that you and Howard had punched each other in the locker room. Public opinion described you as a double-edged sword full of uncertainty. .You are so different now than you were then, what happened?
A: At that time, I only thought about myself, and I didn't realize how much impact these things would have.My domestic reputation was on the verge of collapse, and my parents also endured a lot of unnecessary pressure because of me.In the domestic traditional view, they all think that my parents are not well educated, which leads to my deviant personality.
Q: So, one reason for the shift was because of the parents?
A: This is part of it.The other part is because NBA stars are considered public figures. What they really need to do is to show their sportsmanship and charisma to audiences all over the world, so that they can have more hard-working and enterprising ideas and strive to create a better life.After realizing this, I gradually began to restrain my emotions and put away the original edges and corners.
Q: This kind of transformation is usually very difficult. How did you achieve such a huge transformation in less than half a year?
A: Thanks to Alice!The love and sense of belonging she gave me gave me an extremely stable heart, and I no longer have to worry about where I can take root. I can stay in Los Angeles completely and safely, and pay attention to more people in need.She brought me a lot.
Q: You have told the story of your acquaintance and love with Alice several times, and many fans have spoken highly of her. Now this passage may make her more popular.Don't you want to take this opportunity to thank such a peerless beauty?
A: I prefer to say that I love her.Love is a very simple word, but it requires people to give wholeheartedly, so I don't think thank you, love can represent everything.
The editor-in-chief said: "Actually not. Many people are always focused on love, but forget to express their gratitude to their lover. The existence of Thanksgiving eases this situation and gives people a chance to say thank you to their lover. I know you don't love it very much. It's Thanksgiving, but I still suggest you, don't be stingy with thanking Alice, you can express it often."
Xu Tian never thought about this, so he kept it in his heart and said, "Your point of view is very insightful, and I will try to do it."
The editor-in-chief said: "You still have a way to go emotionally. If you want to mature quickly, you can consider becoming a father as soon as possible, which will give you a qualitative leap in your mind and understand what responsibility really is."
Xu Tian asked: "Isn't the responsibility to give the future wife the best material life?"
"No, you still have a long way to go." The editor-in-chief finally said, "You are a genius in basketball and omnipotent, but you are still immature in terms of emotions, and there are still many things you don't understand."
Lying on the comfortable bed, Alice looked at Xu Tian's exclusive interview in "People" magazine, 99 red roses beside the bed, and a love letter full of true feelings, which made her eyes moist. Impressed.
Xu Tian is not good at expressing emotions, and most of the time Alice is more active, which makes her feel left out occasionally, and adds a lot of unnecessary worries.If she hadn't been cheerful enough, she might have had several quarrels with Xu Tian long ago, but she chose to bear with it and silently supported Xu Tian, allowing him to focus on his dream, even giving up his hard-won Harvard studies .Her sacrifice is not something ordinary women can do.
Xu Tian finished the warm-up performance of Taylor Swift's concert, returned to the backstage, thought for a moment, and dialed Alice's phone.
Alice answered the phone and asked with a bit of tears: "Did you prepare the letter and roses?"
"Yes. I ran to the flower shop at seven o'clock in the morning to buy the bouquet of flowers. I wrote the letter in the middle of the night last night, and it was all sincere." Xu Tian's expression was calm, but his heart lake was already turbulent. "Before, I thought It is enough to pay silently, thinking that you will always feel it, but after communicating with the editor-in-chief of "People" magazine, I changed my opinion. Love needs to be expressed bravely, so that you can confirm my inner thoughts."
Alice cried again unconsciously, sniffed her snot, and hummed softly.
"Thank you!" Xu Tian's eyes were also wet, "Thank you for giving me a warm home, thank you for helping me grow up, thank you for the sacrifice you made for me, thank you..."
On the other end of the phone, Alice, who was listening to these words, was already sobbing.
