Chapter 231: The first move to take the initiative

"You say, you're Gersner's intern?"

After the awkward opening remarks, Justin also realizes that something is wrong and hurriedly shuts up. But if you say it, you will not be able to take back the water that has been spilled. After all, someone spoke up and asked this crucial question.

"You're talking about Jeffersner, the Philadelphia Daily News' team reporter?"

It was Chen Mu who asked the question, and Chen Mu didn't have a good impression of Jackna. Regardless of whether the Che-style bar incident was eventually exposed, there was a direct connection to Gersner. is the attitude of this old reporter after the incident was exposed, which was enough to make Chen Mu angry.

Although everyone knows that Iverson's statement is to open the way for Chen Mu, the younger brother of the team and the absolute core of the 76ers in the future, to take all the responsibility on himself. But the boss of the team said this, whether it is the fans, teammates, or the media circle, they will more or less give some face, and shift the focus of attention from the incident itself to Iverson's spirit of sacrificing himself for the righteousness.

But what about Jasner? Since Iverson came to Philadelphia in 1996, the veteran Iverson has been sparing no effort to belittle and slander Iverson. I don't know if there was any personal grudge with Iverson, this slander lasted for ten years, and it didn't stop until Iverson left.

Although the large-scale page commentary does not use any too straightforward words, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Jesner's words discredit Iverson and Chen Mu, two icons of Philadelphia's past and future.

As a print media reporter, he specially went to participate in the comment column of the TV station, opening his mouth "future" and closing his mouth "strategy", every sentence is putting pressure on the team, so that the team will start to rot according to his and Billikin's wishes.

This kind of attitude, whether it is Chen Mu or Iguodala, is completely unacceptable. As the old saying goes, Iverson has already left the team, so you can scold us boys who stayed. What does it mean to keep an unwavering eye on the superstars who have made great contributions to the history of the 76ers?

So when this young man named Justin opened his mouth to say Jackner's name, the expressions of everyone present changed. Including Boss Su and Su Yin, they also have some understanding of the grievances and entanglements between Gersner and Chen Mu, and because of this sentence, they have an extreme sense of distrust towards the young man in front of them.

Thinking about it again, in order to help the young man out of the siege, they specially persuaded each other and told a clumsy lie that everyone could see the flaws, maybe now the waiters are still secretly scolding this table in their hearts for being insane!

The result? The person who came in was indeed a reporter from the Philadelphia City Newspaper, and he was also running an NBA line, but in the background, it was from Gersner's faction. This had to make everyone very dissatisfied.

"Uh, this ......"

Justin was naturally aware of this problem, and just now moved out of the teacher in order to elevate his status, but it turned out to be self-defeating and suddenly became the target of public criticism. The young man didn't understand the reason at first, but now that he thinks about it, he can't help but curse himself in his heart for being stupid.

Chen Mu, Iguodala, Korver, Philadelphia's new Iron Triangle, are all victory maniacs. are all ruthless characters who are unwilling to admit defeat and unwilling to be instructed by others, how much affection do you have for an old-school discourse controller like Jesner?

Carney, half a season has passed, and everyone knows that this young man has completely followed the patriarch. He supports whoever the boss supports, and he opposes whoever the boss opposes. The faithful are terrible. Now that his boss has a grudge against Jesner, as the younger brother, he can't keep up immediately?

Cheeks, though stoic and peaceful. But if you have seen his speedy career, it is not difficult to guess that the enthusiasm in the heart of this old handsome man is no less than that of the young people here. Today's forbearance and peace are more due to his debut as a point guard and the requirements of his on-court duties, rather than his true nature.

As for the other two Asians, being able to sit with this group of people to eat and drink can tell which side they are on with their toes.

Justin hated, hated that he shouldn't have drunk so much wine just now, hated that he shouldn't have rushed to raise his worth and went to the doctor, now it's good, poke out the leak, don't think about it with the reporter or something, whether you will have the opportunity to interview these big names in the future is unknown.

"Oh~ I remembered!"

Just when Justin was extremely regretful, Carney suddenly slapped his head, suddenly pointed to the former and said: "This young man is indeed that Gersner's intern, I saw him sitting behind Gersner when he was playing at home!" ”

For the press seats in the media seat, Chen Mu these main players are completely unimpressed, before the start of the game to warm up and discuss tactics, after the start of the game to devote themselves to the responsibility, pause or substitution rest busy to relax and recover physical strength, there are a lot of things to do, which media comes which people and other things really don't care.

But Carney is different, at the beginning of the season he was almost on the cold bench, and the young man did not have any problems with his physical strength. Occasionally turn your head to look around, whether there are beautiful fans, beautiful reporters or something, it is also one of their "jobs" on the sidelines.

Justin entered the door in a hurry and suddenly, Carney didn't look carefully, but now he looked at it carefully, he was really a little familiar, and he tried to recall, so he naturally remembered the identity of the other party.

"Uh, yes, yes!" Justin also knew that there was nothing to hide, so he simply nodded and said, "I did intern at the "Daily News" before, and the teacher I was with at that time was Mr. Gersner. But then the internship ended, and I immediately changed jobs! ”

Justin's words are actually full of loopholes, an intern, you can go wherever you like after the internship, and the original unit will drag you not to go? Talking about job hopping, it doesn't count at all, at most it can only be said that "I don't continue to work".

But Justin has his own meaning in this remark, doesn't this "job hopping" sound more active than "quitting"? The meaning of this is to let the bigwigs understand: I, Justin, left the Philadelphia Daily News on my own initiative, not being swept away!

Why do you want to focus on this? First, in order to prove that he is not a fake reporter of the grass platform team, there are not many media outlets, but there are still some of them.

Second, it is naturally to clear up the relationship with Gersner as soon as possible and win the trust of the big guys.

"I did learn a lot from Mr. Gersner, but to be honest. I don't agree with some of the teacher's views and opinions. ”

No, before Chen Mu could ask again, Justin immediately confessed to himself.

"The teacher thinks that the 76ers should start messing around according to Manager Billkin's intentions and find a way to fight for the next super rookie. It's a no-brainer, but in my opinion, the original intention of sports competition is not a strategy or a strategic retreat. The essence of competition should be to give everything for the sake of victory! ”

These words were so loud that Chen Mu and the others were stunned when they heard it, they looked at each other, and they all saw a hint of a smile in each other's eyes:

This guy seems to be from our faction!

Seeing that the words were effective, Justin immediately struck while the iron was hot: "So I believe you have all seen it, we in the Philadelphia City Newspaper did not agree with the so-called rotten and young from the beginning." It's going to be a battle! That's what competitive sports should look like! ”

"Hmmm......"

Cheeks also nodded slightly when he heard this, regardless of whether what this kid said was true or not, but at least this statement was still in place. Suddenly, everyone had a feeling of "I met a comrade" in their hearts, and they also looked at Justin differently.

But the other party is also a reporter from the gossip first media. What to say and what not to say, everyone knows very well. After a deep groan, it was Cheeks who spoke.

"Did you report to Las Vegas for All-Star Weekend?"

"That's right!" Justin finally reversed the subject. Hurriedly nodded and said, "No, I was meeting and chatting with the seniors in the circle in another box just now, I didn't expect such good luck." I accidentally came to your box, haha, I was so reckless! ”

The conversation reversed, the atmosphere instantly relaxed a lot, and in the ensuing conversation, Justin's candid gesture was revealed. Cheeks has read countless people, and naturally he can see how much of them are pretended, and how much is sincere.

After half a year in the media circle, Justin is no longer the stunned young man he used to be, and the meaning in his words is quite euphemistic but clear. The questions of Chen Mu and others were also answered fluently, leaving a good impression on everyone.

Especially when the topic returned to Gersner again, the young man actually had a faint trace of anger, talking about the current "unhealthy wind" in the Philadelphia media circle, which was quite a bit of a point of pointing out that I would save the country.

After coming and going, Justin was somewhat integrated into this small group, and he was smart enough not to ask about the identities of Su Yin and Boss Su, but Boss Su was very excited in his heart.

This meal not only met a big name in the professional sports circle, but also met a professional sports reporter! Looking back at himself, on the right hand side is the head coach of the team, on the left hand side is the future big reporter, not far away there is a future superstar, and there is a son-in-law of his choice......

To be a fan and do this, what more could you ask for!

Not long after, the meeting ended in a harmonious and friendly atmosphere, and when they got up to leave, Cheeks and Chen Mu whispered a few words, and then looked back at Justin and said, "Justin, I don't know if your newspaper is interested in sending a reporter to follow our 76ers to fight in the league?" ”

“……!”

Justin was instantly flattered, stunned for a while before coming back to his senses, and hurriedly nodded and thanked: "Dang, of course interested!" After I go back, I will immediately apply to the leader, send an official letter to the team as soon as possible, and if I become a reporter with the team, I hope you can help a lot! ”

"A word of things!"

Before Chen Mu and the others could express their words, Carney stepped forward and reached out and patted Justin's shoulder, which was quite a bold "approval", which caused everyone to laugh again.

Everyone dispersed, Chen Mu accompanied Boss Su and Su Yin back to the hotel, on the way Boss Su was naturally very excited, he looked even happier than winning 10,000 US dollars, and it didn't stop at all.

Su Yin was also overjoyed, this meeting, what other celebrities, reporters, coaches, Xiao Nizi didn't care at all, her eyes were always staring at Chen Mu, and the light waves were circulating, which was very seductive.

What is the feeling of Chen Mu? Su Yin himself couldn't say clearly, but for some reason, when he saw his father and Chen Mu talking happily, he was happy from the bottom of his heart.

Saying goodbye at the door of the hotel, Boss Su was still excited, and wanted to ask Chen Mu to find a place to have a few drinks, but Chen Mu politely declined.

"There's a game tomorrow, and although it's an all-star exhibition game, you can't be sloppy!"

"That's right! Haha, boy, you're getting more and more like a professional football star! I, Su, am optimistic about you, and Yin'er and I will be there tomorrow to cheer you on, so you must behave well! (To be continued......)
