The Pope of Basketball Community

Chapter 24 [Bland, is it really good]

Relying on the vision of the future, Yang Rui easily won the favor of Scarlett Johansson.

He dared to assert that "Titanic", which has not yet been released, is a classic movie, and he also firmly believes that magic and science fiction movies are the future development trend and will definitely become the main force at the box office.

At this time, "Harry Potter" had just published its first novel, and like "Lord of the Rings", its first movie was released in 2001. If he had money, he would like to buy these film and television copyrights for a share. For him, the business opportunities in the entertainment industry are unlimited, as long as he invests, it is difficult not to make a fortune.

Scarlett was a famous girl in literary films in the early days. Yang Rui chatted with her about acting skills and movies, and soon became a bosom friend. After lunch, he got Scarlett's phone number, and he was not taken as a weirdo.

Before leaving, Scarlett asked: "I want to give my brother a gift. He is a fan of Alan Houston. When the season starts, can you help me get his signed jersey?"

"Of course." Yang Rui agreed without thinking.

Scarlett froze for a moment, then smiled and showed two rows of white teeth: "Jerry, why are you so kind to me? Could it be that you have taken a fancy to me?"

"I'm optimistic that you will become a big star and a Hollywood actress in the future, so build a good relationship first. If you are not yet 13, don't think about it all day long." Yang Rui was amused.

Even if he knew that Scarlett would be a star in the future, he didn't mean that, he just wanted to make friends.

In the United States, having sex with a minor is punishable by a heavy sentence. In New York, it takes 20 years... Unless you don't want to pass it, who would consider such a thing?

After meeting Scarlett, Yang Rui's life became more fulfilling, and he prepared for the future when he has money to invest.

He goes to the library to read books every day, eats at the Huiwei snack bar at noon, takes a walk home at night, exercises his body and cooks.

After living a new life, he cherishes time more than others and has more life insights.

He had a good job in his previous life, but it was just good, not love; he had a few girlfriends in his previous life, but none of them were true love, they were more like a show;

To put it bluntly, he was just an ordinary person in his previous life, too ordinary, and his life was dull to boring.

Some people say that it is true to be plain, but plain, is it really good?

The Belgian "Old Man" magazine conducted a special survey activity entitled "What Do You Regret Most" among the elderly over 60 years old across the country, and the survey results are very interesting.

72% of the elderly regretted not working hard enough when they were young, resulting in failure in their careers; 67% of the elderly regretted choosing a wrong career when they were young; 63% of the elderly regretted not having educated their children properly or inappropriate methods; 58% of the elderly regretted not doing enough exercise; 56% of the elderly regret not cherishing their partners.

At the age of 60, it is already the sunset. Looking back on the past, I can make a more objective and fair judgment on myself.

Before Yang Rui was 60 years old, he realized that he had lived in the wrong way in his previous life. Since most old people regret not being successful in their careers, he should focus on his career, especially if he chose the right career. He doesn’t want to regret in the future .

He also has to exercise, stay healthy, and find a loving partner.

As long as you do these three things, your life will be perfect. He currently has no children, nor does he have aging parents. He is full of energy. If his career does not succeed, he has no excuse at all!

Not only is Yang Rui's life on the right track, Thomas is also doing very well on Wall Street. Both of them are enviable successful people among their peers.

Two months later, Yang Rui and Scarlett became friends, and they had a special seat by the window in the "Aftertaste Snack Bar". Scarlett lives not far away, and she especially likes to chat about movies with Yang Rui.

They usually eat Chinese food, and the dessert black sesame paste is still only the two of them.

Scarlett's younger brother, Hunter, also often comes to dinner. The twin siblings have very similar facial features. This child can definitely fool many people by wearing a wig and pretending to be a girl.

The two forced Hunter to eat sesame paste, and the guy took a sip. Yang Rui's expression could be remembered forever, as if he was going to the execution ground. This food is a bit heavy for most American cultural ideals.

At the end of August, Scarlett successfully auditioned to join the crew of "The Horse Whisperer" and went to make a movie.

Hunter still often went to the snack bar to eat, and asked questions he had asked for a long time. "Jerry, I'm very surprised, can you really get along with Scarlett?"

"Don't you often listen to our chats? Don't you believe that she can become a big Hollywood star? I'm very accurate." Yang Rui replied.

Hunter was confused. He insisted on following at first because Scarlett said that he knew Assistant Knicks, and he was worried that the other party was a liar or had bad intentions.

As a result, after meeting many times, he found that Yang Rui's eyes were clear. He wasn't in love with Scarlett at all, but was just chatting about basketball, movies, Hollywood gossip, and some entertainment.

"Do you still want to be an actor in the future?" Hunter asked.

"No, I'm more interested in being a boss and investing in movies. To put it bluntly, I want to make money." Yang Rui ate a mouthful of fried noodles with longing looks on his face.

Naturally, more money is better. In the short term, he still can’t accumulate the capital to do big things. Thomas’ stock trading has helped him make a lot of money, but it’s still too slow.

Hunter asked: "When training camp starts, you will help me get to Houston to sign, right?"

"Of course, it's a small matter. What do you want Houston to write on the clothes? I don't think he can give you clothes, so you'd better get one yourself."

"Just write about Hunter. One day, you will also become an NBA star." Hunter said seriously.

Yang Rui smiled and shook his head: "Change it to another one. From my professional point of view, you can't become an NBA star. Playing basketball depends on talent."

Hunter was a little unhappy: "Why not, I'm tall."

Yang Rui sighed: "Don't you look at the level of confrontation in the NBA? I have a physique that will fall apart. Even if you grow to 1.9 meters in the future, can you train your muscles? Someone will give you an elbow , your pretty face is finished. If you want to be handsome in basketball, you can play in school."

Hunter is usually very narcissistic, and he blushes a little when he is talked about. "Then what did you say to write?"

"Study hard and improve every day." Yang Rui responded casually.

"..."

Hunter went home and pondered for several days, and took a jersey to the snack bar for Yang Rui. "When I think about it, I write it, and never give up on my dream!"

"Hey, it's really good to write this, Hunter, what is your dream?"

"I don't know. Right now...don't know."

Seeing his shy look, Yang Rui felt a chill. This is the tall male version of Scarlett, they look so much alike.

On September 23, Yang Rui received a call from the management to prepare him for the team's media day. The day after tomorrow, everyone on the team will be busy, and the new season is about to start!
