"Oh, the ball is now on No. 23's hand! Turn around and shoot, score, the ball is in!"

"Oh my God, No. 23 is a good example!"

"It's worthy of being the third place in this year's draft. Look at his turn in the air, it's so cool!"

"But I feel that No. 23 is still a little nervous. I didn't hit a few shots. ⊙ Including this goal, he only made three of his ten shots, and it was obviously not in good shape!"

"What if he doesn't matter, scoring can't measure all a player! Look at how smart and flexible his rebounding is, it's like he's doing magic!"

"Hey, man, what do you think of No. 23?"

Hu Wenhai narrowed his eyes and was stunned for a moment. He covered the light in front of him with his hands, and then turned to look at the two guys beside him who had been chattering.

"I want to tell you that the lights on the court are too dazzling. There is a light opposite me that seems to be shining on me..."

"Haha, man, you must not be a Chicago man. Are you a Washington Bullets fan? Chicago people know that you can't buy this position, and you will leave this position every time."

"No, I'm not a fan of the Bullets." Hu Wenhai waved his hand quickly and joked that now he is within a radius of ten meters around him. Although the quality of NBA fans is at least better than that of the big country football fans, it's better not to openly challenge these people's tempers.

"I'm here to play No. 23, and he performed well in the Olympics."

"Oh, yes! I won the gold medal for the United States at the Olympics on the 23rd!" The guy next to Hu Wenhai ate popcorn everywhere, turned his head and looked at him and asked, "Man, then where are you from?"

"I? I'm Chinese."

"Huajiang people? Baodao people? Li Jiapo?" It's hard to tell that this guy is actually quite familiar with the classification of Chinese people.

Hu Wenhai shook his head and smiled, "Mainland people."

"Mainland people come to see NBA? This is rare." The man wiped his hands on his clothes and reached out and said, "I'll get to know him. My name is Steve. It's okay if you call me Paul. Hi, do you want some popcorn?"

"Thank you, I still don't need it." Hu Wenhai looked at the popcorn that was ravaged by Steve's big hand, shook his head decisively, and then introduced himself: "My name is Hu Wenhai, you can call me Hu."

"I know, your last name is in front of the name!" Steve smiled proudly, and then said regretfully: "It's a pity. In our United States, you have to be free and free to watch football and do whatever you want."

The two were talking when a warm cheer suddenly sounded in the field.

"No. 23, my god, it's No. 23 again! The beautiful layup move is like flying!"

"Oh my God, he's in again!" Steve stood up excitedly, waved his fist hard, and shouted excitedly with everyone on the field.

"Hey man, you can't be as calm as you watch football." Steve shouted and jumped for a while, sat down again, turned to look at Hu Wenhai, who had not responded to it, and said, "You Chinese are always too quiet. I have a few friends from Chinatown. It seems that the sky falls and can't panic them."

"We will cheer in our hearts, really." Hu Wenhai showed a sincere smile and explained to Steve.

Having said that, the familiar American personality does make people feel good about them, but sometimes it also makes people feel a little troublesome. This is not the case. When Steve spread his hands out, he saw the small note on his palm with sharp eyes, and immediately smiled and said with a clear smile: "Oh, I understand, you bought the lottery won by the Washington Bullets, right?"

"This?" Hu Wenhai opened the small note in his hand and smiled, "How is that possible? I said that I came for the 23rd."

Hu Wenhai opened the lottery ticket in his hand and asked Steve to take a closer look. It was printed with his betting information at the Atlantic City Sports Lottery Center, but of course he could only hurriedly see that the winner on the betting was the Chicago Bulls.

The US states have different legal attitudes towards the Betting and Lottery industry, among which Las Vegas is the world's top gambling city. However, there is another famous gambling city in the United States, that is Atlantic City.

In Atlantic City, in addition to various gambling venues, the lottery and ticket industry is also very prosperous. Especially in the United States, the lottery and ticket are purely business models, which means that the big prize is divided by the company and the winner. Except for paying taxes, you will never fill a brick or a tiles for public welfare undertakings. Of course, what is the matter with some charitable lottery and tickets? Hu Wenhai is just hahaha.

It is precisely because of the operation of this business model in the United States that it is often possible to produce very high prizes. In history, American lottery ticket winners won hundreds of millions of dollars in a single prize, so many people are willing to try it. As a prestigious event in the United States, NBA will certainly not be without related lottery tickets.

"That's right. Our Chicago Bulls will never lose to Washington Bullets at home!" Steve immediately smiled and praised Hu Wenhai for his vision.

Satisfied Steve sat back in his seat and watched the game without turning his eyes. A basketball game was 48 minutes, and it was only 63 minutes in halftime, just an hour. The 23rd saw many exciting performances next, especially when he frequently stole rebounds with his amazing bounce, creating an excellent opportunity for his teammates to attack.

However, it was probably because of some nervousness that he did not have many attacks. On the 23rd game, he had 16 attacks and scored a total of 16 points, which was a little disappointing.

In the warm and fast-paced basketball court, time almost flies. With the last whistle, the referee announced the end of the game, and cheers suddenly rang out in the court.

In this game, the Chicago Bulls defeated the Washington Bullets 109-93, winning the first victory at the opening of the NBA in 1984. However, no one on the field knew that they would witness the birth of a legend in the near future.

The legendary year in 1984 will be recorded in history in the NBA. Among them, the draft No. 1 pick Olajuwon will lead the Houston Rockets to win two NBA championships in the future, and Charles Barkley and John Stockton also entered the Hall of Fame. Such as Otis Thorpe, Kevin Willis, Michael Cage, Sam Berkins and Elvin Robertson have also left a strong mark in the NBA.

Oh, by the way, Carl Lewis, who ranked 208 in the draft, will also leave his own legend in the world. That's right, it's the American track and field superstar Carl Lewis.

However, all of these people combined are probably not as dazzling as those of the 23rd who performed poorly today.

"Hey, Chinese Hu, how about it, our American basketball game is very good, right?" Steve pulled Hu Wenhai and looked extremely proud. It seemed that the Chicago Bulls won the championship today, but him.

Hu Wenhai's eyes turned, suddenly hooked his finger at him, and said with a mysterious smile: "Hey, Steve, do you want to make some extra money?"

Steve was shocked and a complimentary smile appeared on his face: "What? Is there anything I can do? Don't worry, there is nothing in Chicago City that Steve can't do!"

"That's good, my request is very simple. Have you seen the No. 23 of the Chicago Bulls?" Hu Wenhai pointed at the Bulls player wearing a white jersey and leaving the field.

"Of course, this kid is a newcomer, but his performance today is not very good." Steve curled his lips and said, "I only got 16 points, and the Bulls manager must be in a bad mood now."

"I want the sneakers he wears today. I pay $1,000. I don't care how much you keep yourself, but the sneakers must have a signature of No. 23."

"Okay, no problem!" Steve's eyes were filled with green light when he heard Hu Wenhai's offer. This was $1,000 in 1984, which was even more valuable than $10,000 in thirty years later! The $10,000 in 2014 could not be a company, but in 1984, Mr. Michael Dell used $1,000 to build the future Dell Empire.

As the saying goes, when a gold coin sounds, the soul can ascend to heaven. Even God and the old man can be bribed, which shows that the power of money is infinite.

After less than ten minutes, Steve, who had left in a hurry, ran back with sweat on his head, and a pair of white Nike sneakers were lying in his arms.

"Chinese Hu, you really have vision!" Steve said excitedly with a thumbs up: "This is the sneakers worn by NBA on the 23rd. He will become a big star in the future. These shoes may be worth tens of thousands of dollars!"

OK, Steve had completely forgotten his previous words at this time, as if No. 23 was no longer the rookie who performed mediocrely, but became a hope star with an infinite future.

But from a certain perspective, his words are not wrong. No, I'm afraid Steve himself can't believe that the value of the shoes in his arms will be far more than 10,000 US dollars in the future.

Not to mention ten thousand dollars, with the commemorative significance of these shoes, even if it is 100,000 dollars, some people will be attracted to it.

But of course, Hu Wenhai would never be short of this 100,000 US dollars. But as a little hobby that has accompanied him for more than ten years, he is also very happy that he has added a precious collection, just to commemorate his hard work for more than ten years.

Hu Wenhai generously counted a thousand dollars from his wallet and stuffed them into Steve's arms, and then happily took over the sneakers.

Steve looked at the almost endless money in his wallet with some jealousy, while Hu Wenhai was excited to touch the sneakers in his hand. This is a pair of Nike's new sneakers this year, probably specially customized and very large in size.
