Super Lord of the Rings

Chapter 429 [Dark Horse, Derby]

Wang Jun showed his power in the new season, and the managers of Apple Computer and the watch company who canceled his endorsement contract were unlucky.

Because of affecting the interests of the company, one was demoted and the other was fired directly.

Wang Jun has become a symbol of Asian basketball players, and countless businesses want to cooperate with him. As long as he is allowed to be the endorser, the Asian market can be guaranteed.

It doesn't mean that the commercial value is high if you play well, exposure and popularity are the key. Like Nash and Duncan, even if they won the mvp, their commercial value cannot be compared with that of Wang Jun.

Because Wang Jun is a topical figure, he is full of gimmicks, and his commercial value has already reached the top ten in the league. His endorsement fee is getting higher and higher, steadily surpassing Yao Ming, and directly catching up with James, Kobe and others.

The fight did not affect Wang Jun's image, but made people familiar with him.

Recently, Wang Jun endorsed a Samsung notebook, and the one-year endorsement fee was twice as high as the original price offered by Apple, which is in line with his current social status.

Merchants in South Korea, Japan, and China all want to find Wang Jun as their endorsement, but his threshold is set high, and they don’t make products they don’t like, and don’t endorse products that don’t fit their image.

Therefore, so far, Wang Jun has not endorsed many products, unlike Yao Ming who has endorsed more than a dozen products. His money mainly depends on advertising, not on playing.

Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf has made money because of Wang Jun. Many Chinese businesses have sought cooperation with the Bulls, and the goal is the billboard at the Bulls' home court.

The advertising fee for a game is 60,000 U.S. dollars, and there are at least six advertisements for a game. After 82 games plus the playoffs, this item earns tens of millions in a single season.

The regular season continues, and the Bulls are stronger than people imagined.

After a three-day break, they flew to Texas to play an away game. Under the leadership of Wang Jun, the Bulls defeated the Spurs again and completed the sweep of the regular season.

111 to 99. The Bulls' offense is more blooming, and the Spurs are not tempered. They rely on fast breaks.

Bowen can't defend against Wang Jun one-on-one. It's even worse for Finley. Once Wang Jun is double-teamed, David Lee, Luol Deng, Nocioni, and Hinrich can all score.

Wang Jun scored 25 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists. Five of the team scored in double figures.

The Spurs Duncan is still stable, with 24 points, 13 rebounds, 4 assists and 3 blocks. Parker, Ginobili is also very good. They scored 18 and 19 points respectively, but the Spurs' bench was firmly suppressed by the Bulls.

In the game played on the same day,

The Cavaliers lost to the Pacers, and the Pistons lost to the Wizards. The Bulls' record has risen again, with the same 9 wins and 2 losses as the Pistons, tied for first place in the Eastern Conference.

If it weren't for the sluggish state of Wang Jun in the first two games, the Bulls' record will definitely be better, and the opening game against the Bobcats is not difficult. Then they will have the exclusive title in the league.

Countless people were blinded. Experts who originally said that the Bulls had only one star player, Wang Jun, changed their words one after another, thinking that Hinrich, Luol Deng, Chandler and others are not weak anymore.

I say this to reduce the value of Wang Jun in the team. Otherwise, if the Bulls continue to play like this, they don’t need to be number one in the Eastern Conference. too much.

In the first round of mvp selection, Wang Jun ranked first.

The first round of All-Star voting. Wang Jun is far ahead in the guard position, and he will definitely become the starter in the Eastern Conference again.

He was on fire, like a superstar.

And the evaluation of Wang Jun by the basketball training system is still a "second-rate star".

Wang Jun is even more convinced that this assessment is not to compare him with NBA players. But compared with aliens, when the system judges him to be a superstar, he doesn't even know what level he is.

After only playing 11 games, Wang Jun trained to level 52. After practicing the Longevity Method, his leveling up speed became faster, and all values ​​improved slightly.

Seeing progress, he trained harder, forming a virtuous circle. He wants to know where he can go in the future.

After defeating the Spurs, the Bulls will rush to Houston non-stop. Challenge the Rockets back to back.

The game was advertised a week ago, and the All-Star Game was removed for one season. There are only two Chinese derbies.

It's a pity that the two teams are not at the same level. McGrady was injured, and Yao Ming was the only star left. The Rockets' garbage record of 3 wins and 9 losses seems unable to stop the Bulls' winning streak.

Before the game, Chinese netizens overwhelmingly believed that the Bulls would win.

"I think the suspense today is not who wins, but how much the Bulls win, how long Wang Jun plays, and whoever agrees."

"Even if McGrady can play, I don't think the Rockets can beat the Bulls. McGrady is too lazy. Why didn't the Rockets choose Wang Jun at the beginning? It's okay to trade to the team."

"I have a hunch that Wang Jun will score 60+ in this game. Who can defend against him?"

"The Rockets must be competitive and don't lose too quickly. I want to see Wang Jun play in the fourth quarter and score high."

Yao Ming was very upset when he saw the comments, but he had to admit that this year's Rockets were too bad, the signings were a complete failure, and it would be difficult to win with him and Tracy McGrady.

Bob Sura was injured, and the Rockets didn't even have a reliable point guard. If they want to play well, they must first trade for a qualified starting guard. McGrady was injured, and there was no qualified swingman in the team. Anderson was in poor form and had been reduced to a substitute.

On the evening of the 27th, the players appeared at the Toyota Arena.

Wang Jun got a lot of applause when he played, and many Chinese fans in Houston also supported him.

When Wang Jun greeted Yao Ming, he was embarrassed when he said Yao Ming.

"Brother Yao, please let me know in advance. Brother, I may feel sorry for you today. I'm still behind in the scoring list. I must score with all my strength today."

Yao Ming smiled wryly and said, "Don't be too complacent, this is the home court of the Rockets."

"I don't think Hyde can guard me. His physique can't even guard me in the period."

Luther Hyde was standing not far away, so depressed that he wanted to rush up and slap Wang Jun twice.

You speak too loudly!

Can't I make progress in the past few years?

Hyde thought about it, and sadly found that he really didn't make any progress. He was still making breakthroughs, combined shooting, poor confrontation ability, and hadn't grown taller or gained weight in the past few years.

He and Deron have almost the same college data. The scouts agree that he has no potential. Deron is the No. 3 pick, and he almost fell to the second round.

Thinking of how miserable Sir Delong was being abused by Wang Jun, Hyde pretended not to hear, not daring to speak harshly. Yao Ming was also helpless when he saw his teammates being discouraged.

Hyde had just entered the NBA, and he was ordered to start the game when he was in danger. It was too reluctant for him to play against Wang Jun. If he doesn't play, the tall veteran Wesley will have to defend, let alone play.

Players from both sides stood on the court.

v5 Zhang reasonably sighed: "Today's game is not easy for the Rockets. I believe many fans will be conflicted. They want to see Wang Jun score high, but they don't want Yao Ming's team to lose too badly."

Yu Jia began to pour cold water: "It's too difficult for the Rockets to guard Wang Jun. Bowen can't guard against him now. The Rockets can only ask for luck from outside."

Rockets starting: Hyde, Wesley, Howard, Swift, Yao Ming.

Van Gundy's formation is surprising, there are actually three insiders in the frontcourt. Van Gundy felt that it was also difficult to defend against the small man, and it was better to use the big man to interfere with the shot.

Bulls starters: Hinrich, Wang Jun, Nocioni, Luol Deng, Chandler.

David Lee was added to the bench, and Skiles was to strengthen the defense. The Rockets' ability to fight was mediocre except for Yao Ming. With two thin players in the frontcourt, it was more suitable for Deng to play.

The two sides jumped the ball and the game started.
