Chapter 583 Do You Have Confidence In Me Now?
Everyone present knew that what Jordan said about buying groceries was completely an excuse, and the old hooligan came here just to find a place for Huang Shaohong to say a few days ago that he could beat him in a single fight.

As for the stalk of buying vegetables, we have to start from the last time someone challenged Jordan in front of the media.

The Bulls selected rookie Corey Benjamin with the No.20 eighth pick in the first round of [-].

Coincidentally, Jordan, who was No. 1 in the league that year, was deadlocked in labor negotiations and had six championships in his hand, so he chose to retire after success and retired brilliantly with the Bulls.

And 'Cory Benjamin', who was originally a die-hard Jordan fan, started talking nonsense without going through his brain when he was interviewed by reporters. He said to reporters in the interview:
"Too bad! Michael retired, I would have had a chance to beat him one-on-one."

In fact, this sentence became a joke when it was reported by the media. At that time, no one would think that this two-pole could beat Jordan in a one-on-one bullfight.

Benjamin is actually a young and frivolous unintentional statement, just like a naive middle school child who said when I was a child that I would drink the most expensive wine and sleep with the most beautiful woman when I grew up.

Only when he grows up will he realize that he can only face reality while drinking Erguotou and hugging his daughter-in-law who weighs nearly [-] catties.

So most people wouldn't care about Benjamin's words, just bragging, and I said he could beat Superman to death, who would believe it?

But Jordan is destined to be not an ordinary person, and the words of a rookie have aroused his great attention.

Although the old hooligan has neglected to practice for a long time after retiring, he still chose a sunny day, drove a luxury car, sang songs, and brought the media to the long-lost Bulls training ground.

After reminiscing with his former teammates, Jordan named Benjamin and came out to single out, saying that he would be given a chance to realize his wish.

When others persuaded Jordan to warm up first, the old hooligan said disdainfully, "Will you still need to warm up if you fight him one-on-one?"

Then the 36-year-old old hooligan beat the 11-year-old Benjamin with a score of 3-21, leaving Brand and Artest, who were watching the two-person bullfight on the sidelines, dumbfounded, with incredible expressions written all over them!

While teaching man, Jordan also destroyed the confidence of the first-round pick, so much so that Benjamin hurriedly retired after playing in the NBA for less than four seasons.

After that bullfight, the ins and outs of the incident and the bullfighting video at that time spread, while the fans marveled that your uncle is still your uncle, someone joked that the helper took the time to teach rookies how to be a man when he went to the street to buy food up.

So when Jordan told Huang Shaohong about buying vegetables, everyone knew that there was a good show to watch, and that the old hooligan was here to teach him how to be a man.

As a result, after the bullfight started, the old hooligan became stupid. Jordan was surprised to find that with his defensive skills, he couldn't defend against Huang Shaohong at all.

On the first ball, he asked Huang Shaohong to kick off the ball. He didn't even make a fake move, broke through the past in one step, flew straight up, changed hands in the air, turned 720 degrees and dunked to get the first point.

The people around were dumbfounded, even the client Jordan was stupid too. The old hooligan dared to swear that Huang Shaohong's starting speed just now was faster than Tracy McGrady and Iverson at their peak, how could he guard against it.

After all, the old hooligan coughed lightly and teased: "Do you want to rely on speed to beat a 43-year-old guy? Show your skills, or you will be ridiculed by my fans!"

After speaking, he picked up the basketball and threw it to Huang Shaohong again.

"Okay, as you wish!"

Although Huang Shaohong played in the past, his skills were average, that is, at an amateur level, but now he can control any muscle in his body, and it is not a problem to make any difficult moves.

Immediately, he showed a fancy dribble in front of the old hooligan. Seeing that Jordan was unmoved, he took a tentative step, and the old hooligan immediately pressed forward.

Huang Shaohong immediately used Iverson's flower-piercing butterfly step, dribbling the ball like a big moth, flopping left and right, after knocking the old hooligan out, he made a direct hit with an elegant jumper.

He hit the old hooligan five balls in one breath, making Mike Tyson, who was watching the game, very happy.

You must know that he is going to become Huang Shaohong's manager, even though Jordan is already 43, but today Huang Shaohong only needs to blow up the old hooligans, and the media on the sidelines will expose the matter, and the former's commercial value will rise gradually. .

At that time, Huang Shaohong will definitely become popular all over the United States, and his agent will also benefit accordingly.

The opposite of Mike Tyson, the old rascal is not in a pretty mood.

When he saw the video of Huang Shaohong scoring 150 points, although he was amazed by the young man's performance, he didn't think the opponent could beat him.

Because he found that in the video, Huang Shaohong basically relied on his physical talent and shooting accuracy to score points, while the players defending him were obviously not good enough.

As the best defensive player in the past and the best defensive team in the 9th NBA, Jordan felt that he could lock up this kid on the defensive end, and his attacking opponent would definitely not be able to resolve it.

As a result, he scored five goals as soon as he came up, which made the old hooligan lose all face.

Taking advantage of the defensive opportunity, Jordan whispered to Huang Shaohong, "Boy, don't you know what it means to respect the elders? So the media, you sincerely let me down, don't you?"

Huang Shaohong dribbled the ball away from the hand of the old hooligan who stole the ball, and joked, "You won't tell Benjamin the same way, right?"

"I was just 36 that year, and Benjamin is a fart. If I don't retire, which star can be the first? You ask Kobe and Iverson, can they beat me at that time? Don't talk about it, it's useless, we both came from the North Ka, you don't really want to let the senior brother lose his life at the end of the festival, do you?"

The old hooligan is determined to be a hooligan.

The two talked while entangled. The reporters on the sidelines couldn't hear the conversation between the two. They thought they were talking trash to each other and didn't care.

Huang Shaohong said in a low voice: "This is a tie, how about you help me promote my novel later?"

Qiao Dan had seen Huang Shaohong's interview and naturally knew that the other party said that he would publish a novel, so he said angrily: "You really dare to speak, do you know how much it costs to find me to advertise?"

"Then you just wait until the end of the night!" Huang Shaohong speeded up the dribble with his hands, moved quickly with his feet, and made another butterfly step.

The old hooligan laughed angrily: "Okay, you're ruthless, I agree!"

Then the members of the school team and the media watching the game from the sidelines saw a sudden change in the situation on the court. The old hooligan suddenly reached out and successfully stole the ball, then quickly entered the three-point line, and dunked the ball in the basket with both hands lightly.

Then, once the old hooligan got mad, he was out of control, and used four fadeaway jumpers in a row, and the two became a five-to-five tie.

At this time, the old hooligan stopped to wipe off his sweat, and smiled at the surrounding media: "Stop beating, save some face for my apprentice!"

"Bah!" Huang Shaohong spat secretly in his heart, really shameless!
A challenge match ended in a draw. Afterwards, Jordan and Huang Shaohong accepted a brief interview with the media.

Jordan praised Huang Shaohong, saying that this is his real successor. If someone can surpass him in basketball, he used to think that person was Kobe, but now he has confirmed that it is his junior.

Huang Shaohong also praised Jordan. He said that he thought the old clapper had softened, but he turned out to be so firm!
Jordan laughs, he likes to be described as 'tough'.

Didn’t you see that in order to be strong, he cut off the nerve of his right index finger when he was cutting a cigar, so that he couldn’t turn back when shooting the ball, and he kept standing upright, so I asked you whether he was strong or not!

While the old hooligan was happy, he remembered the promise he had made to Huang Shaohong, and immediately praised it to the cameras of the media:
"My junior is not only good at basketball, but also good at writing. I have already read the sample books of his novels, which are very attractive to me."

As Jordan spoke, he asked Huang Shaohong beside him, "What's your name?"

Others are overwhelming, haven't you read the sample booklet?Is it attractive to you even if you don't even know the name?
Huang Shaohong didn't take it seriously and said, "It's called "Twilight"!"

Jordan also felt embarrassed, he slapped haha, and quickly saved him:
"Yes, it's called "Twilight". It's a good book. I've seen the sample book, and the cover is very beautiful. After "Twilight" comes out, please support me, my little brother. !"

After he finished speaking, he asked Huang Shaohong, "When will it go public?"

Huang Shaohong said with a happy smile: "Don't worry, everyone, we will find the publishing house soon!"

"."

Everyone is convinced, these two guys are indeed seniors from the same school, and they speak in the same way. Just after Jordan finished reading the sample book, you said that you haven't found a publishing house yet, so look at it. the sample book?I printed it myself!
Huang Shaohong said this on purpose, hype, he can say whatever he wants to attract attention, although he put Jordan in it, but it must have played a role in hype, no matter whether the effect is good or bad, it is destined to attract more people's attention To the book Twilight.

After sending the media away, Jordan said he would invite Huang Shaohong and Tyson to dinner tonight, but before that, he left room for the two to talk about things, and went to greet acquaintances in his alma mater by himself.

Huang Shaohong talked to Coach Chapman and sat in the stands of the arena with Tyson to talk about things.

Tyson first expressed his gratitude implicitly:
"Bruce, when you called me that day, you should be able to understand my current predicament from my words. Although I have never admitted it in front of the media, I am really short of money now. Thank you for letting me be your agent. , you are destined to become a superstar, and I will definitely do this job well!"

Huang Shaohong chuckled, and joked: "I heard that you are already planning to make an art film, maybe you missed a wonderful affair because of my invitation!"

Tyson smiled wryly: "Bruce, don't make fun of me. You know that I used to be brilliant, but my bad habits and impulsive temper made a mess!"

"Now I have a girlfriend who loves me and is worth changing for, and I have a few kids to raise. What I need now is stability, not an affair!"

Huang Shaohong didn't expect Tyson to say such a heart-to-heart statement, so he didn't hide his purpose at all, and said directly:
"Mike, there is one thing I didn't tell you. I didn't think about making money from basketball. I asked you to be my agent because I wanted to box. Of course, you can also be my agent for writing!"

Tyson immediately had a black question mark face, boxing?writing?What the hell is this?

He laughed dryly: "Bruce, your jokes are not funny at all!"

Huang Shaohong shrugged: "It's not funny because I wasn't joking at all!"

Tyson said anxiously: "Bruce, are you crazy? Do you know your commercial value in basketball? If you want to make money, I can contact you with Nike and Adidas right now. I think they will all be interested in you."

"You will be able to participate in the draft next year. With your current strength, you will definitely be the No. [-] pick. Then your value will be [-] times in no time!"

Huang Shaohong shook his head: "I need a lot of money. The cycle of making money in basketball is too long. It's better to make money in boxing. I heard that Mike, your appearance fee was tens of millions of dollars, but you just said about the endorsement. It can be considered!"

Tyson pondered for a while and asked, "Maybe it's presumptuous, but can I ask how much money you need? I can help you figure out a way first!"

"Starting with a billion dollars, there is no cap, the more the better!"

Tyson was completely angry, got up and was about to leave: "I feel cheated, it's true that boxing is making money, but do you think everyone can be a boxing champion?"

Huang Shaohong got up, casually raised his hand and slapped Tyson with a big mouth.

Now he likes the feeling of slapping someone in the face more and more. It feels good and he feels better!
"you"

'Snapped'

Huang Shaohong turned his hand and opened his mouth again, and then said with a smile: "Come on, you can try to see if I can be the boxing champion!"

Although Tyson's temper had changed a lot, he was Tyson after all. After being slapped twice, he couldn't suppress his anger and exploded immediately.

Since the two are currently very close, his shot was a powerful uppercut.

No matter how old a tiger was, it was still a tiger. Tyson's punch was extremely fast, and it hit Huang Shaohong's chin like lightning. He was confident that he could knock this nasty kid to the ground with one punch and make him pay enough.

Huang Shaohong dodged slightly, and a gust of wind blew past his ears. His face remained unchanged and he sneered, "Is this what boxing champions do? Isn't it good?"

Tyson's eyes were already red when he punched, and he was even more furious when he heard that, a punch that missed the upper step was a set of combined punches.

Back then, Tyson was known as the king of combo boxing, and his moves were described as swift and violent like raindrops.

But Huang Shaohong still dodged easily in the face of Tyson's storm, and at the same time he still did not forget to sneer: "It's too slow, Mike, are you old and can't eat anymore? If you want speed, you don't have speed, if you want strength, you don't have strength." !"

"Ah!" Tyson has completely gone mad like a beast.

'boom'

As Huang Shaohong dodged left and right, Tyson's fist swept across the back of a stand seat, directly smashing the hard plastic back to pieces.

At this time, everyone on the training ground noticed the situation here, and when they saw Tyson and Huang Shaohong making a move, they couldn't help but exclaimed loudly.

Huang Shaohong laughed and shouted loudly: "Don't worry, I'll have a match with Mike!"

After he finished speaking, he started violently: "Mike, it's my turn!"

Huang Shaohong directly seized the flaw in Tyson's attack, and punched the champion on the chin.

Five minutes later, Tyson woke up and slumped on the seat. The North Carolina team doctor stretched out two fingers and shook vigorously: "What is this?"

Seeing that Tyson didn't answer, the team doctor turned his head and said, "Send it to the hospital, it must be a concussion!"

Tyson said: "No, Mr. team doctor, you are shaking too fast and I am a little dazzled, can you slow down?"

"Oh!" The team doctor stopped shaking in embarrassment, and before he could ask, Tyson immediately said: "Two!"

Huang Shaohong said with a smile: "You see, it's all right, I will rush to answer this. I said that I know what to do, and he will never do anything!"

Jordan, who came over after hearing the news, laughed at the side: "Mike, you, the boxing champion, let my junior get knocked down!"

Tyson rubbed his chin, and said depressedly: "Didn't you get beaten up by your junior on the basketball court, don't think I can't see it!"

"Uh..." Jordan looked embarrassed, and said, "The last time you played Texas Hold'em, should you pay back the $30 you lost to me?"

This time it was Tyson's turn to be deflated, he endured the pain on his chin and smiled and said: "I see clearly, just now you were the one who supported the younger generation, and you deliberately let Bruce during the match!"

Huang Shaohong walked up to Tyson and asked, "How is it, Mike, do you have confidence in me now?"

Tyson opened his mouth and laughed: "Happy cooperation, boss!"

In the evening, Jordan invited Tyson and Huang Shaohong to dinner, and the latter took his sister and Edmund to have dinner together. The leader of the big business didn't care, and waved his hand: "Eat whatever you want!"

After the sumptuous dinner, Huang Shaohong and Jordan left contact information with each other, and the boss drove back to Charlotte overnight.

The old hooligan is now the small boss of the Bobcats, and his daily hobby is to abuse food and beat his own players. Today, he ate at Huang Shaohong's place, and it is estimated that some Bobcats players will suffer tomorrow.

Tyson stayed and lived in a hotel in Jiaotanshan. The next day, Huang Shaohong asked for a few days off, and the two flew to New York together.

The two sat in first class, and Tyson paid the money in advance, and Huang Shaohong promised to return it to him when he got rich.

After arriving in New York, Tyson first led Huang Shaohong to the Sports Commission to fill out an application form, provide a medical report, and register as an amateur boxer.

Then the two went to Tyson's personal lawyer and drafted a brokerage contract, which stipulated that Tyson would get 5% of Huang Shaohong's professional income and 20% from all commercial endorsements.

Huang Shaohong checked the boxing agent's fee standard with his eyes, and knew that Tyson did not blackmail him. The price was actually very benign, so he immediately signed his name on the contract.

During lunch, Tyson introduced Vitale, the president of Bantam Book Company, to Huang Shaohong. The boxing champion has an autobiography called "Never Back Down", which was published by Bantam Book Company, and they are all old acquaintances. up.

Huang Shaohong handed over his USB flash drive to 'Vital', who watched it with his laptop for a while, and was attracted by the plot of "Twilight", and immediately wanted to sign a contract.

When he arrived at the lawyer's office in the afternoon, Tyson immediately entered the role of his agent and fought hard with 'Vittel'. Finally, with 15% of the royalties, Bantam Company paid 30 dollars in advance and signed the " Publishing contract for Twilight.

After signing the contract, "Vittel" said to Tyson with emotion: "Mike, the 15% royalty share is the treatment that only top writers enjoy. I have to say that you have changed a lot. If you were in the past, you would never be so shrewd." !"

Tyson shook his head with a smile: "When you have tried to owe tens of millions of huge sums of money, you should understand the change in me!"

'Vittel' shook his head and laughed: "Then I never want to have this kind of experience in my life!"

After receiving a $30 cash check, Huang Shaohong waited for 'Vittel' to leave, and asked Tyson, "Mike, when can you arrange a match for me, I want to enter the money-making mode as soon as possible!"

Tyson said that the "National Golden Glove Boxing Championship" is about to start recently, and he wants to wait for the championship to start, so that Huang Shaohong will become famous in this event.

Huang Shaohong nodded: "Then do you know where you can fight black boxing?"
