MTL - The Rest, Only Noise-v2 Chapter 1418 The hype surrounding Yao Yueban
【The rest, only noise】【】
On the eve of the All-Star weekend, "Sports Illustrated" launched a new issue of the magazine.
The cover characters of this issue are definitely refreshing. He's neither a superstar from the Big Four nor a highly anticipated supernova.
Judging from the cover, this person is tall and tall, far beyond ordinary people, his body bones look a little thin, but his thighs are as thick as tree trunks.
At the same time, he still has an Asian face, with a square and plain Chinese character face.
The pictorial headline read: "Yao Yueban is a seven-foot monster from China. Will he be the next dominant superstar?"
For those Americans who are used to buying pictorials every week, this person seems to have appeared out of nowhere, but Chinese fans are very familiar with him.
Yao Yueban, who was just 17 years and 5 months old, became the second Chinese in history to be selected for the cover of the pictorial.
The first is Yu Tiancan, the center of the Suns.
To be noticed at this age, and then to be elected to the cover of "Sports Illustrated", is an unusual thing.
Last summer, Yao Yueban successfully entered Wake Forest University. According to the original plan, Yao Yueban will wear Sequoia in the first year, because he is too young and not strong enough. Instead of risking injury to play, it is better to spend a year to raise meat first, and wait until next year when he is a sophomore. become a positive choice.
This kind of thinking is normal, because Yao Yueban looked too thin at that time.
However, this plan was canceled when he finished an intra-team match.
Yao Yueban not only became the youngest player in the history of the Wake Forest University Devil Deacon team, but also scored 15 points, 7 rebounds and 4 blocks in his debut in the new season, which attracted a lot of attention.
Now, Yao Yueban's freshman season is coming to an end. He averaged 14 points, 6 rebounds, 2 assists and 3 blocks in 24 minutes per game. He has far surpassed his senior brother Yu Tiancan.
Therefore, the pictorial's move is not so much an innovation as it is an early launch of a super genius who is likely to be elected as the NBA No. 1 pick in the future.
Each "Sports Illustrated" cover character has a corresponding character feature article.
Yao Yueban's feature article is a super long article, occupying 1/10 of the entire magazine's content.
This article established a good public image for Yao Yueban. He doesn't look like a big guy with an odd personality, but a nice guy with a humble, good sense of humor.
His teammates at Wake Forest all mentioned him in praise. Dave Odom has great expectations for him: "I want to say Soy (Yu Tiancan) to Harold, because Yao is beyond imagination, he will be as good as Tim, give him some time , let him master more skills, add more muscles, and when he enters professional basketball, he will be a decisive force!"
This is the most substituting hype that Louis has seen since he traveled to this world 20 years ago.
Seeing Yao Yueban being praised so much by Yankees, he was very honored, even happier than others who praised him.
Now, he hopes that Odom will stop messing around and train Yao Yueban well. In the future, after Xiao Yao retires, if he is lucky enough to be elected as the chairman of the Basketball Association and promote the establishment of the Chinese Basketball Hall of Fame, he will definitely support Odom's selection.

In addition, this issue of the pictorial not only hyped Yao Yueban, but also promoted Lu Wuxia by the way.
The article by Alexander Wolf, who has been preparing for several months, appears in prime position in this issue.
The title Wolf uses is pretty unpretentious: "Son of God: The Growth and Troubles of ishLu."
As Louis hoped, Wolf did not over-praise Lu Wuxia.
The article only briefly introduces Lu Wuxia's resume and some honors he has received since he was a child. With reference to the evaluations of some high school scouts and professionals, he carefully gives "the top high school student in the country" and "the most NBA prospect among his peers". "The players" are not overly praised.
In this regard, the Son of God (TheSonofGod) has no way
Flaw, like The Chosen One to James, became a nickname that accompanied him throughout his life.
Although the article's praise of Lu Wuxia is very restrained, Wuxia's name (ish) and his identity as Legend Lu's son are impressive enough.
By all accounts, he was the best ninth grader in the country. Otherwise, even if he was Legend Lu's son, "Sports Illustrated" wouldn't have sent a famous writer like Alexander Wolf to write an article for him.
After reading the article, Louis was very satisfied, so he called Wolff directly: "Dude, I owe you a favor. If you need me, you can find me anytime, interviews, industry insiders... as long as you ask me, I will definitely know everything."
"Really? I just have a question." "Go ahead."
Wolff asked, "Coach, how far do you think ish can go in basketball?"
Louie didn't know the answer because he couldn't see the future. "You asked me." Louis said with a wry smile, "I really don't know what will happen to that kid in the future, because he is still too young, maybe in a few years, I will have an answer."
Today is the first day of the All-Star Weekend, and Louis, who is at home on vacation, is not safe.
Lorraine has been in high spirits recently. Not only was she nominated for the third Emmy Award for Best Actress for her role in "Family", she also accepted a cameo role in "Titanic" through Louie's suggestion.
Speaking of which, the guest appearance in the big boat was an olive branch offered by the other party.
The production company of "Titanic" is Paramount Pictures, and this company previously held 100% of Madison Square Garden Entertainment, which is
It was Louie's former boss. The two parties are very familiar, and Lorraine has always had a koi attribute—a movie with her will always get a good box office, no matter whether she is the leading role or supporting role, or a small role with very few appearances, this effect always exists.
After the explosion of "Titanic", Lorraine has also risen with the tide. She may be the most familiar face among contemporary actresses.
Therefore, Lorraine has been very embarrassing recently, asking people if they have seen the big ship.
Moreover, apart from Lorraine likes to talk about his own affairs, he also likes to talk about the affairs of the people around him.
Now Wuxia has a feature article in "Sports Illustrated", and she will also take the initiative to mention this when promoting the film to the outside world.

Louis couldn't help but say something to her today: "Marlena, you're spreading the word all over the world to promote your son, it will bring unnecessary pressure to him."
"There's nothing wrong with that. Michael is born to be a star. If he can't play basketball in the future, he can learn to be an actor." Lorraine said proudly, "He is a good seed!"
What kind of thing is this? The father is afraid that his son will be overwhelmed by the overwhelming hype, but the mother is still giving her son strength.
Afterwards, Louis was abducted by his wife to watch a show of "Titanic Only\\\\\\\\\\".
Louis had watched this film several times in his previous life, and the plot in it was so familiar to him that when his wife who played a cameo in the film appeared, he felt a little out of place.
Because this is a picture that did not exist in the previous life, but the impact on the whole movie is 0.
When Xiao Lizi painted Rose's body portrait, Lorraine took a special look at her husband.
I saw Louis frowned. When other men at the scene had many indescribable scenes in their minds, he was like an expert in breeding animals in a zoo saying: "If Kate Winslet can find a strong man Have a boy, and when he grows up, he shouldn't have a problem guarding Shaquille O'Neal alone."
Lorraine said dumbfoundingly, "Honey, what are you thinking about all day long?"
A funny thing happened during the viewing. When Jack and Rose bid farewell on the icy sea, a **** who didn't see the occasion yelled: "Incompetent third party, you're not even wearing Benj's jersey!"
Louis couldn't help laughing out loud, this stalk is really hard to pass.
