Chapter 1349 Can't Think of a Topic
Everything in this world has two sides. If you hate a person, you like it. Many people who admire Morey think that he is a genius who can make a lot of money while maintaining competitiveness for the Rockets.
But this shrewd fat man seems unwilling to only shine in the basketball field, and is willing to express his opinions in the ZZ field. As early as 2007, Morey supported Romney. He also expressed his attitude of support with practical actions. Although the sum of the five donations is only a pitiful US$1,250, there is no "ten thousand", which is not missing, but a real 4-digit amount of US$1,250.
At that time in the NBA, Morey could be said to be against the trend. After all, Comrade Guan Hai was the idol of countless players, and most of the NBA players were black compatriots. He had to brag about a third-tier starlet at home, not to mention It was a president who came out of the compatriots.
Later, when asked by reporters why he supported Romney, Morey gave a very personal explanation.
Morey said that he doesn't care what Romney's political position is, and that Romney has many policies that he "strongly opposes".
Then why support it?
"I think Americans pay too much attention to candidates' policies when making political decisions.
I think the election of the president is to choose a capable person, isn't it? We should elect the most capable leaders. "
Yes, Morey brought out his sports data analysis again. He said that he supported Romney because he has experience and higher leadership efficiency. How do you see this? Derived by formula? Really should let Morey learn from the "Cross Talk Formula Couple"!
As soon as these words came out back then, many people scolded the fat man for eating salty carrots and not worrying about it!
But it stands to reason that Morey's hometown of Wisconsin is one of the key swing states that are more biased towards Donald in this election, and Texas, where he has worked for more than ten years, is also a representative of the Crimson.
Regardless of whether he uses data analysis or not, it is only natural for Morey to support the Xiang Party.
Then why did he express such strong words at this time?
You must know that as soon as his tweet was released, it made many people on the opposite side read a joke, and it even made Donald's opponents unify their positions, such as the Donkey Party candidate Yang Zeyu who wanted to please voters. This Yang and Yang Cheng has nothing to do with it.
Anze Yang is an ardent NBA fan. He supports the Knicks the most, but after announcing his candidacy for president on behalf of the Donkey Party, his "math-based" attitude has conquered more and more voters, which is very similar to Morey.
However, he was out as early as the first round of primaries, and it would be too much to force him to be associated with Morey at this time.
A phone call called Sean Marx, and asked straightforwardly, "Is there any news from the alliance now?"
Sean Marx smiled wryly, "It's not easy for the alliance to express its views on this matter. In the final analysis, it was Morey's own remarks, but I don't know what he thinks, but he directly greeted the presidential candidate with swear words."
Yang Cheng tapped her finger on the table, "If it were any other time, maybe there wouldn't be such a big wave. This time is too sensitive, let's look at the public opinion on the Internet."
"Yeah, it seems that Adam Silver is going to have a headache, a good sports league, but it's hooked up with ZZ."
Yang Cheng sneered, "Sean, could the NBA remain innocent without Morey's incident this time? Don't be naive. Businesses have been separated since ancient times. The NBA's annual income of billions of dollars is by no means a Small numbers, it's normal to be targeted.
It's just that he didn't know if Morey was being used by someone this time, or if he was pursuing his own interests. "Updated the fastest Qiqi novel
Sean Marx nodded in agreement, "I'm leaning toward the latter, I've been in touch with Daryl Morey, he's an extremely shrewd guy,
He will never do things that are not beneficial to him. Obviously, there are interests that no one knows about behind his tweet.
By the way, I heard that he seemed to have thought of running for mayor of Houston before? "
Yang Cheng was taken aback, "There's still this history? If that's the case, I probably understand why he suddenly had a convulsion."
In the United States, everything is a part of entertainment, including the presidential campaign. How can a candidate be recognized by the public as quickly as possible?
Naturally, there is an endless stream of news, right? As long as you have a piece of news on the pages of major media, isn't it easy to become famous?
It doesn't matter whether the reputation is good or bad, as long as people know it, the bad reputation can be turned into a good one, otherwise there wouldn't be a word called "whitewashing" in this world!
"Okay, pay more attention to this matter, especially the wind direction of the league. If you have anything to do, call me as soon as possible. Remember, our team should not express any opinions on this matter!"
Yang Cheng said it very solemnly, Sean Marx did not dare to be negligent, and he felt from the bottom of his heart that this matter was not involved in subtleties. You must know that after Morey happened, many relevant personnel in the alliance also expressed similar opinions, but only in words. The words are not so intense, anyway, each has candidates to support.
In the evening, Yang Cheng hosted a banquet in a Chinese restaurant to entertain Pei's family. The reason why she chose a Chinese restaurant was to have an atmosphere. Michelin three stars sounded high-end, but western restaurants had more rules and did not have a 'family' dining atmosphere.
But the Chinese restaurant is different, the style is not low, but because there are private private rooms, you don't have to worry too much about talking and talking during the meal, so the dinner is very lively.
Koreans can eat spicy food. Of course, it is different from the spicy food in Sichuan and Chongqing. Koreans like the taste of dry and spicy, sweet and spicy, but they are also full of praise for Sichuan cuisine.
Yang Cheng specially ordered the restaurant to cook a table of authentic Sichuan cuisine, which was unanimously praised by the Pei family. Even Pei Zhuyan, who was in a bad mood, ate an extra bowl of rice.
Towards the end, Yang Cheng mentioned the matter of taking Pei Zhuyan to see a psychiatrist, "Tomorrow I arranged to meet with Professor McLean of the Presbyterian Hospital. Considering the language problem, maybe the first meeting will not be very good. Please don't worry about this, but be patient enough.
Professor McLean is the most famous clinical psychologist in the United States, and his ability is beyond doubt. "
He is also reminding Pei's father and mother that psychology is very mysterious. It doesn't mean that seeing a psychiatrist will definitely cure your heart disease, but more importantly, it will play a role in decompression and counseling. Whether it can be cured in the end depends on the It depends on the individual!
The Pei family are very sensible and know that these things cannot be forced, "We all understand~"
Because she has the closest relationship with Yang Cheng, only Irene dared to ask more, "Oppa, will the language problem affect the treatment effect? You also said that this is a big problem."
Yang Cheng smiled, "Don't worry, I've made all the arrangements. It just so happens that a Korean psychology student is doing an internship at the Presbyterian Hospital. He will accompany Zhuyan throughout the whole process to help with translation, and he will also be able to teach in McLean. Adjuvant treatment when time cannot move."
It can be said that he has considered all aspects of the matter, Irene let go of the last trace of worry, and smiled sweetly at Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng didn't want the atmosphere to be too depressing, so he said instead, "After dinner, we'll go to Broadway to enjoy the opera. A visit to New York and not watching the opera is useless."
. . .
It stands to reason that Yang Cheng should arrange "The Phantom of the Opera". This relatively introductory play is very suitable for those who are new to opera. Can rely on the interpretation of the actors to invest in the plot.
However, after Yang Cheng asked Irene for her opinion, she chose the classic play "Chicago" by the Ambassador Theater as today's finale. The reason is that more than ten years ago, Pei's father and Pei's mother used to be in Seoul, which was still called Seoul at that time. , After watching the remake of "Chicago" by Korean musical actors, I felt a very strong shock. If they can revisit and appreciate the original version this time, it must be an unforgettable memory for them.
So Yang Cheng temporarily sent someone to the Ambassador Theater to buy box tickets on the second floor. There are too many tourists who want to experience the shock of Broadway opera.
"Chicago" can be regarded as a milestone in the history of opera. It was performed on the New York stage for the first time in 1975 by "Musical Theater Master" Bob Fosse and Broadway duo John Kendall and Fred Alber.
In 1997, director Walter Bobby conducted a revival, and the revival won the Tony Awards for Best Revival Musical, Best Director, Best Choreography, Best Actress, Best Actor, and Best Lighting Design in one fell swoop. Awards, almost "sweeping" all the awards of the year.
After the film version was released in 2002, it won 13 Oscar nominations and 6 awards, breaking the 35-year situation that musical films have not been able to win the best picture Oscar.
In addition, in 1998, "Chicago" also won the Grammy Award for Best Musical Theater Record; in 2003, the soundtrack of "Chicago" was released in the first week, and it was airborne to P4 on the Billboard pop album list, and climbed to the runner-up in the second week.
A series of awards proved how classic this show is, and it also made Pei's father and mother, who arrived at the Ambassador Theater by car, dance with excitement.
Yes, dancing and dancing. Who would have thought that two people who combined were over 100 years old excitedly waved and took pictures at the entrance of the theater?问噺繓赽奇奇小说盧|w~w~
But looking at the appearance of her parents, Irene was held by Yang Cheng's little hand, and shook Yang Cheng vigorously. Needless to say, the gratitude in her eyes, she herself can't remember how many years, she has never seen her parents so happy up.
Pei Zhuyan was taking pictures of her parents, seeing the slight smile on the corner of her mouth, Yang Cheng felt that her painstaking efforts were not in vain.
The big hand pressed on Irene's head, her tender eyes were full of doting, and everything was said in silence.
