0019: Great treasure
Although Mr. Ben Holland joked that Westbrook was interviewing the Orange County Register because he wanted to run for president, the Orange County Register was not a news newspaper focused entirely on current affairs.
The Orange County Chronicle is no less focused on sports than professional sports media, and even this year they hired a large number of sports reporters and launched a new independent business segment. To this end, the newspaper hired about 50 commentators on top of its existing staff of 180.
High school sports are a top priority in their special Saturday sports section, and last week they sent 40 text and photojournalists to cover more than 40 high school sports events over the weekend.
Kevinding, who was recently recruited as an intern reporter for the Orange County Chronicle, is ready to make a career in the media industry. He graduated from UCLA's Department of Journalism and Communications, so it was only natural that he chose to follow the UCLA vs. USC game on Tuesday.
In this away game, the alma mater played a wonderful game, and there were many highlights.
The biggest highlight was Russell Westbrook, who had been on the bench last season, dominating the No. 1 position and not even falling behind in a couple of meetings with popular rookie OJ Mayo.
He felt compelled to let readers of the Orange County Chronicle know about the little brother, who was a native of Los Angeles, and that was a good sales driver for the Orange County Chronicle, which is primarily oriented to the California region.
So, he walked into the UCLA basketball gym on Wednesday afternoon. The place they had agreed on was at the café next to the school, which was a memorable place for Kevinding, who had gone on a date with seven girls and six of them for dessert...... This is a very efficient success rate, much higher than those romantic French restaurants.
When he walked into the arena, the first person he saw was not Russell, but the Asian face who had slapped Tygibson from the air to the floor.
"Are you here for Russell?"
The puppy took the initiative to walk up to him very politely: "Unfortunately, he was taken to the hospital in the middle of the night because of vomiting and diarrhea." Doctors said he had food poisoning, but it was unclear whether it was because of the seafood he ate last night or because Nina had changed to a new lipstick made in Vietnam. Now the hospital is testing both things. ”
"He wants me to apologize to you here, and if you don't mind, he wants to accept your interview tomorrow morning."
Kevindin heard the puppy's explanation, and his emotions fell, he was sorry that such a thing happened, but there was nothing he could do.
However, the problem now is that an interview must be sent to the editor-in-chief today.
If you can't complete this most basic task during your internship, then... There is no doubt that he will be fired.
"Why is the arena empty today? What about the other players? Kevindin asked, hoping to find a replacement soon. Kevin Love, Holiday or Luke Bamot will do.
"Yesterday, Mr. Ben Holland announced that the whole team is off today, and only Russell and I need to go to the arena for special training. But... Russell got food poisoning. So, it's just me! The puppy's tone was a little frustrated, he didn't want to be this kind of 'chosen son'.
Kevending's mood has completely hit rock bottom, can't I really be a great journalist?
"Mr. Reporter, if nothing else, I'm going to have to go to warm up."
The puppy smiled at him and walked over to the power room.
Kevinding stood there and thought for a long time, and he suddenly decided: why not interview the Asian player just now? Now that Yao Shu has become the No. 1 center in the NBA, the American basketball community is currently curious about Asian faces, and he is so short to play the starting center of UCLA...... It's all news!
So, he walked in the direction where the puppy had disappeared.
When he walked into the power room, he was stunned.
Because the puppy was being hung upside down, trainer Leon Bob shook him vigorously, and then he held a long sword in the upside down hanging, constantly puncturing the balloons hanging from the wall.
He quickly took out the camera he had brought with him...... Click! Click!
He took several pictures in a row.
Then he asked Leon Bob, "Hello, sir." I'm Kevin Din, a reporter for the Orange County Chronicle. As far as I know, there is no such upside-down part of the warm-up training. ”
"Oh, hello, Mr. Reporter."
As soon as Leon Bob heard that he was a reporter, he quickly raised his voice: "I'm Leon Bob, the chief trainer of the UCLA men's basketball team. I personally built Russell Westbrook from a weak black boy to the devil muscular man he is now, did you see yesterday's game? He's completely crushed his opponents, and he's already at the top of the NCAA in terms of power, speed, explosiveness, or bounce. There are very few players who can compete with him. ”
"Him, Snoopy. He was the second player to receive special training from me. He also had an impressive performance yesterday afternoon, dominating the USC paint zone on the defensive end. His strength and bounce even make people forget that he is only six feet three inches. You know, that's the height of a point guard! ”
"We'll see. Snoopy will surely become the next Chinese to shock the basketball world. He's going to be a super defensive center like Ben Wallace, or... He's going to be an extremely good point guard. ”
Leon Bob's last words made Kevindin stop working on the voice recorder.
He asked rhetorically, "Do you know the difference between the position of center and point guard?" ”
"Mr. Reporter, I can tell you are doubting my professionalism." Leon Bob was a little angry, he took out the puppy's latest physical test report and handed it to Kevending: "So, let's take a look at this physical test data." ”
Kevindin took the physical test data and took a closer look. Instantly jaw-dropping, completely shocking.
Snoopy has gained 18 centimetres in height over the past month, which has led to a rapid decline in his physical coordination and a severe deterioration in his movement speed. However, his power, bounce, and speed are among the top in the NCAA. ”
"So, there are at least two possibilities for him now. If he continues to grow in height, he can certainly become a super defensive center. ”
"And if he doesn't grow in height and quickly regains his coordination, is there a problem with his ability to handle the ball and be a good point guard?"
Leon Bob asked reasonably.
Kevending only felt deafening, and a huge surprise poured out from the bottom of his heart.
Missed an interview with Russell Westbrook.
However, a legend with a very news explosion was found.
Once his story is reported, it will surely become a hot topic.
And, with his growth trend, the editor-in-chief will certainly agree to follow the story.
Once he reaches great heights in the future.
So.
"My dream of becoming a great journalist is about to come true!!"
Jumping straight from hell to heaven, Kevending finds himself in a gleaming treasure.
