Chapter 1264 1263. Change Jersey Number! (6/10 Ask for Guaranteed Monthly Ticket)
Chapter 1264 1263. Change jersey number! (610 for guaranteed monthly ticket)
Although it is also called Road to Glory, the story is completely different from what Liu Mang remembered, and it is also very different from the script he got at the beginning.
Originally, it was from the perspective of a coach, leading a group of black players to win the NCAA championship, but Liu Mang participated in the show, and Liu Mang must be the leading protagonist, so it was changed drastically and changed to a story in 1999. Liu Mang came to the United States and dreamed of entering the NBA. His goal changed from winning the NCAA championship to defeating Kwame Brown to become the NBA No. 1 draft pick...
Both the NCAA and the NBA gave conveniences such as the right to use the image and the right to use the name.
The story was changed completely differently, but this movie was not originally about selling stories, but about selling passion, so this is not important.
The important thing is that the shots that Liu Mang wanted to shoot were really shot in just one week!
Moreover, it was shot ahead of schedule, and some parts that James Gartner felt were not well written before were changed, and the shooting was also completed within a week!
Originally, Disney was planning to release the film after the World Championships, taking advantage of the popularity of the World Championships, but the filming ended earlier than expected, so they can take advantage of the popularity!
The main markets are of course Asia and North America, two places with a strong basketball atmosphere, with China and the United States being the largest markets.
…
"I'm so tired... I'm never going to make a movie again..." Liu Mang said to Schwartz next to him as he collapsed on his seat on the way home after the wrap-up party.
"..." Schwartz felt that Liu Mang was going to piss him off!
If he had Liu Mang's acting skills, why would he be an agent? Although the entertainment industry in the United States also values appearance, many actors with high popularity and high pay are not necessarily good-looking.
And Liu Mang actually complained that filming was too tiring!
At the beginning, Liu Mang seemed very motivated, but as he continued filming, he felt too tired...
Playing someone else, although the protagonist's name is also Ace Liu, his experiences are completely different from Liu Mang's. He is just a pure middle school boy. As he continued filming, Liu Mang felt like he had become an idiot...
And when he saw the actor who played Coach Kruger shaved his forehead to look like Coach Kruger, who is almost Mediterranean now, Liu Mang laughed several times here without laughing elsewhere...
Fortunately, the filming is finished. Liu Mang is looking forward to whether it will make any noise after the release.
But this has come to an end. If this drama becomes popular later, then it will be popular. If not, it doesn't matter.
…
…
On July 25, Liu Mang took a day off at home. The three girls and two sons who had taken their parents to see the sea came back with their parents. After returning, they began to prepare to return to China. The flight was booked for the evening of the 28th. For Liu Mang, the final reporting time was July 30th. Yao Ming had returned to the team after the commercial activities ended, and Wang Zhizhi even earlier. He was the most active. He finally returned to the national team and couldn't waste time.
On the afternoon of the 25th, Liu Mang came to the Phillips Arena to discuss the situation that there were not many high-quality veterans who actively sought to join this summer. There was no way to deal with this. If you don't change the three consecutive championship teams, the veterans are worried that you have won too many championships here, you are slack, your sense of self-honor is satisfied, and there are physical problems.
If you make changes to the lineup, they are worried that you will not be able to run-in well.
They are more willing to join those championship-contending combinations that failed to win the championship last season. Even the Supersonics have got some veterans to join.
Especially those teams that want to win the championship when the Hawks are weak, and the salary is higher than that of the Hawks.
There are not many solutions to this problem. We can only survive this year and develop from within. Now the Hawks' bench lineup is full of talented young players to be developed, and it feels like 2002, 2003, and 2004.
Liu Mang did not meet his new teammates. After the summer league, McGrady went to take care of his new teammates. Rondo signed a four-year rookie contract, and Millsap signed a 1+1+1 three-year contract.
Liu Mang did not meet them for the time being. Liu Mang felt a little tired of this aspect. The longer his career is, the more he cares about this aspect and the less he wants to make a new teammate. If they can play together for a longer time, it will slowly get better. Now Liu Mang does not have that intention.
What makes Liu Mang happy is that Prince has reached a contract extension with the Hawks, a 1+1 contract extension, 12 million for two years, and a team option for the second year. Prince is very loyal to give the Hawks room to operate. He himself does not want to leave, but the Hawks originally wanted Artest.
Prince doesn't talk much, but he is the most loyal one, because he doesn't have as many ideas as Josh Smith or Iguodala.
In the original time and space, the Pistons' five tigers, the last one left is Prince.
Without Artest or Garnett, Prince becomes very important. If there is a chance to reach the finals next season, whether it is to defend Kobe or Ginobili, or the Mavericks' star group, it will play a big role.
Artest went to a place that is not sure whether it is good or bad. It is true that the Spurs are good at dealing with thorns, but there are also situations that they cannot solve. However, Artest at least has the hope of winning the championship.
And Garnett is a bit miserable, and it seems that he is going to be cold...
McHale rejected the chips from the Hawks and acted as if he was not satisfied with the chips given by the Hawks. In an interview, he expressed his concern that Josh Smith and Iguodala might not perform as expected after they lost the superstars around them.
But as a result, no one cares about Garnett, a superstar who can transform a team and wants to leave the team!
There are offers, but the offers will not be better than the chips given by the Eagles. If McHale agrees to the offer, he will basically not have to hang out in the management, and he can only grit his teeth and hold on...
The chaotic summer is not completely over yet. The Pistons are still putting on a soap opera, but they are too unspectacular. Their trading ideas are no better than those of the Timberwolves, but not many people pay attention to them.
Not attracting the veterans he really wanted to join, Liu Mang came to the arena today not mainly to talk about this matter, but about another major event...
…
"Ace, you want to change your jersey number? Why?" Price asked strangely.
"I feel like the people on Earth can no longer stop me... Ouch..."
"Say what I can understand." Coach Kruger kicked Liu Mang.
Don't blame Coach Kruger. He has been trying to build Liu Mang's superstar image for many years, but Liu Mang is a superstar, but his personal image is still so childish.
"I've won three consecutive championships wearing this number. Let's change it. I feel like my luck with this number is about to run out."
Seeing that Liu Mang still refused to tell the truth, but this matter is important or not that important, Coach Kruger asked speechlessly: "What number do you want to change?"
"24th!"
