The Almighty King of Sports - Chapter 949
Amid the protests, Wang Fei and his party left the airport in three small cars.
LeBron kindly invited Wang Fei to live in his house.
But Wang Fei declined.
It is ultimately inconvenient to live in someone’s home.
Wang Fei stayed at a hotel near Staples Arena.
Dinner was a reception banquet specially held by Jenny Buss for Wang Fei.
At the reception banquet, Wang Fei met the current major players of the Lakers.
After Wang Fei was determined to leave the Lakers, through operations, the Lakers exchanged for the partner of Big Eyebrow and LeBron James.
The Lakers also include Rajon Rondo, Howard, Pope, Danny Green and others.
In fact, this lineup is really good.
At the banquet, everyone talked happily.
The banquet was over and the guests were seen off. Before Wang Fei went to bed, he opened his Facebook and posted a message.
“I will always be a member of the Lakers!”
Then, he added a photo of himself with LeBron and others.
This is also to show good to the Lakers and Lakers fans.
In any case, foreplay must be done.
He finished posting this news and opened his own Baidu Post Bar.
The post bar is as lively as always.
All netizens are discussing that Wang Fei’s jersey will retire at the Lakers’ home court.
This is the second Chinese player to enjoy the retirement of his jersey after Yao Ming’s jersey was retired by the Rockets.
Obviously, Wang Fei’s fans are also very excited.
“The Lakers have set an example. Shouldn’t the Rockets also retire Wang Fei’s jersey?”
Some netizens made such a post.
The popularity of this post seems to be quite high, almost in a state of artificial topping.
Wang Fei shook his head.
Since leaving the Rockets, he has not had much contact with the Rockets.
However, the Rockets are not very popular in China because of the Morey incident.
People call the Rockets the “Mosaic Team.”
Wang Fei opened this post and read it.
The general meaning of this post is: Without Wang Fei, the Rockets would not want to relive the joy of winning more than 20 years later! It was under the leadership of Wang Fei that the Rockets were able to win their third championship trophy in team history!
Therefore, although there have been some conflicts between Wang Fei and the Rockets, the Rockets must reward Wang Fei for their contributions!
“According to the information currently available to the poster, the Rockets still have not made any affirmative response to the fan’s suggestion to retire Wang Fei’s jersey. They only said that the club board will seriously consider this matter! But retiring jerseys is not a small one. It will take some time if it can work. This is really sad! A superstar player who led the team to the championship is not enough to retire the jersey? It can only be said that the Rockets are too utilitarian. They are too short-sighted. This is a great opportunity to ease the relationship with the Chinese fans! They don’t even grasp it quickly! Their brains are really a bit twitchy!” The post said at the end of the post.
Wang Fei then read the following thread.
“This is the main reason why the Lakers are so great, and even if the Rockets invest a lot, they can’t get more championships.”
“The character is too bad. Otherwise, Wang Fei will not leave the Rockets.”
“I can only say that the mosaic is dying!”
“Is it rare for the Rockets to retire their own jerseys? The greatness of Fei Di is no longer necessary to rely on retiring a jersey to show!
“The Rockets are self-defeating from the people! The reality will hurt them severely! Let’s go and see!”
“Don’t talk about the Rockets anymore. Retiring the jersey is indeed a big thing. Many players only get the honor of retiring the jersey after a few years of retirement! Be patient, I believe the Rockets will definitely retire the Wang Fei jersey. !”
“Seriously, I don’t want Wang Fei’s jersey to be retired, because he may return to the NBA in a few years. He is still young and he has not yet reached the conclusion of the conclusion!”
“Upstairs, the retired jersey is just a matter of attitude! This is the best reward for a meritorious minister! Since Yao Ming can get the honor of retiring the Rockets jersey, then I think Wang Fei is also worthy of this honor! Again, there is no king. Flying, there is no championship!”
On this floor, the debate among netizens is fierce.
After watching Wang Fei for a while, he closed this post.
He was thinking, should he publish a post to express his views on the matter of retiring the jersey?
After thinking about it for a long time, he decided that it would be better to keep silent.
Before leaving his own post, Wang Fei refreshed the online post.
Looking at it this way, Wang Fei found that a new and more eye-catching post had appeared.
The title of this post is: Rockets boss Fertitta tweeted: The Rockets will also retire Wang Fei’s jersey before the start of the first home game of the new season!
Wang Fei was shocked.
What is going on here?
Fertita tweeted without even notifying me?
Now that the decision has been made to retire my jersey, should you give me a call?
Why didn’t you say a word?
Wang Fei opened this post and took a look.
He found that the host directly posted a screenshot of Fertitta’s Twitter.
Fertitta’s tweet is very brief: Wang deserves the honor of retiring his jersey! We will do this in our first game at home!
After posting this screenshot, the poster played with a few words: “Haha! The Mosaic team can’t help it. They know that if they don’t respond quickly, they will offend more Chinese people this time! Retire Wang Fei’s jersey, that’s it. By the way! This will slightly improve the Chinese people’s view of you!”
Wang Fei shook his head. He opened his Twitter and found Fertitta’s Twitter.
After clicking on it, Wang Fei discovered that this post by Fertitta had just been posted for about ten minutes.
Wang Feixin said, it seems that many Chinese are staring at the social media of the Rockets’ bosses!
As long as they speak up, it is estimated that their news will be moved to China.
Speed is really leveraged!
It’s really fast!
At this moment, Wang Fei’s cell phone rang suddenly.
Wang Fei took a look, and it was Fertitta who called.
Wang Fei smiled.
He finally called himself.
Wang Fei answered the phone.
“Hi! Wang, good evening! Didn’t I bother you?” Fertitta said on the phone.
“Mr. Fertitta, good evening! It didn’t bother me!” Wang Fei smiled.
“You came to the United States, but I just received the news. You should call me as soon as possible.” Fertitta said.
“Haha! I am worried that you are busy, so I didn’t call.” Wang Fei said.
“Congratulations, I have seen your performance in Real Madrid, although I don’t like football very much, but I must say that you are really amazing! You amaze me!” Fertita said.
“Thank you!” Wang Fei said.
“Yes, you have left the NBA and you changed to playing football. This is a huge loss for the NBA! An irreparable loss! We have lost an iconic superstar, which makes me feel very much. Sorry! What I want to say is, thank you for your great contributions to the Rockets in the past. We have decided to retire your No. 99 jersey. Now, I sincerely invite you to come to Toyota Center Court. Can you please?” Phil Tita said.
“Mr. Vampire Fertitta! This is an affirmation of me! I am very grateful! Excuse me, when will my jersey retirement ceremony be held?” Wang Fei asked.
“It will be held in two days, you know, two days later, we have a game at the Toyota Center!” Fertitta said.
“I accept your invitation!” Wang Fei said.
Wang Fei hesitated, but decided to accept the olive branch handed over by Fertitta.
Anyway, this is a reward for myself.
I have no reason not to accept it.
“Thank you so much. Wang, I’m really sorry about the past. If we can work together again, I don’t think I will be as impatient as I used to be.” Fertitta said.
Cooperate again?
I’m afraid it’s already impossible.
Wang Fei had no plans to enter the palace for the rocket.
“Haha! It’s nothing, everything is over. Mr. Fertitta, let’s look forward!” Wang Fei said.
After speaking for a while, he hung up.
As soon as Wang Fei wanted to look back at the information, his cell phone rang again.
Wang Fei took a look and found that it was Pelinka who was calling.
Wang Fei answered the phone.
“Hi! Wang, I saw a tweet from Fertitta, they also want to retire your jersey, congratulations!” Pelinka said.
“Thank you! I didn’t expect that Fertitta would send me such a surprise.” Wang Fei said with a smile.
“You deserve it! Without you, they wouldn’t have a championship trophy. But, Wang, I think it would be inappropriate for you to accept this honor at this moment?” Pelinka said.
Wang Fei immediately knew what Pelinka meant.
After all, the turmoil caused by Rockets general manager Morey is not over yet, and the Rockets have been blocked by China.
“I know, this may be inappropriate, but I can’t refuse, I think, fans should understand. I have won two championship trophies in the NBA, one of which was won by the Rockets. This A career should also be remembered.” Wang Fei said.
“Well! I hope you will not be boycotted by your domestic fans because of this.” Pelinka said.
Pelinka’s words made Wang Fei murmur a little bit again.
He is a bit big.
When sports is mixed with political turmoil, it will always become extremely complicated.
“I will reconsider this issue. Thank you for your reminder, Mr. Pelinka.” Wang Fei said.
“You are welcome, I am also worried that this will affect your career.” Pelinka said.
But Wang Fei knew that Pelinka called herself specifically for this matter, maybe she also had her own selfishness in it.
Perhaps Pelinka is worried that the Rockets will play a warm card and let Wang Fei make any promise to return to the Rockets.
In fact, Pelinka doesn’t need to worry about this at all.
Because the contract between Wang Fei and the Lakers is still there.
Moreover, in general, Wang Fei is still more comfortable with the Lakers than with the Rockets.
If one day Wang Fei really chooses to return to the NBA, he will definitely choose the Lakers!
