Almost all the reporters at the New Orlean basketball stadium surrounded Shen Nan.
Not to mention the Chinese reporters, even the American reporters who thought highly of themselves surrounded them.
Right after the match ended, they surrounded Shen Nan and refused to let him go.
For those American reporters, their questions were extremely sharp.
"Your name is Shen Nan, right? How old are you?"
"Have you played in any other competitions?”
"Seven out of seven shots and seven three-pointers in your debut. Do you think that's the NBA?”
These people were here to stir up trouble. They looked down on the Chinese, but they had to admit that Shen Nan's performance in this match was impressive. Therefore, they wanted to set up some traps for Shen Nan to jump into. At the same time, they were like sharks that had smelled blood, asking for all information about Shen Nan.
Shen Nan ignored their questions and pretended not to understand English. He said in Chinese,""Hmm? What are you talking about? I'm sorry, but I don't have a good grasp of English.”
Scott noticed this and came over to help.
He had experience dealing with these people." I'm sorry, Shen Nan is tired after the competition. If you want to interview him, you can wait until he's rested.”
Upon hearing this, most of the reporters gathered around, wanting to know more about Shen Nan.
Scott answered without any loopholes.
Shen Nan felt much more relaxed. However, there were only three reporters in China, so she still had to deal with them.
The CTV official reporter only asked a few simple questions.
Huang Meng squeezed his way over and quickly asked,"Can I interview you? I think a lot of people want to know you."
His words immediately triggered the reactions of the other reporters, and they all began to fight for the interview.
Shen Nan watched as they handed the microphones over. They were all fighting over it and did not know how to respond. At this moment, he saw his manager, Zhou Li, walking over slowly. His eyes lit up and he pulled Zhou Li over."If you have any specific questions, you can ask my manager…"
With that, he quickly ran toward the locker room.
He did not expect the Chinese reporters to be so cruel. It looked like they were going to eat him up.
This was also why Shen Nan did not know how valuable she was.
There were only three Chinese players in the NBA: Yao Min, Yi Jianlian, and Sun Yue. Other than them, no one else had made a name for themselves in the NBA. Yao Min was the only one who had made a name for himself, and Yi Jianlian had only just begun to shine in the Bucks.
Although Yao Min was at the peak of the three, his popularity had obviously dropped.
The successors Yi Jianlian and Sun Yue had yet to rise to prominence.
Although Shen Nan was only in his debut, his performance was too outstanding. His debut was the peak. He scored seven three-pointers in two minutes and hit seven of them. This was even more dazzling than Yao Ming.
This caused all the Chinese people to be in high spirits.
Most importantly, Shen Nan was young enough. He was only 18 years old, and people could not help but look forward to his future.
However, Shen Nan soon realized that his popularity was terrifyingly high. After he took a shower in the changing room, his relatives and friends called to ask about it.
"Hmm? That's right, that's me... Oh... Wait a minute, there's another call.”
Shen Nan answered more than a dozen calls in one breath before he was done. When he walked out of the locker room, Zhou Li pulled him back and said anxiously,"Hurry up and follow me…"
The two of them ran out of the basketball court and got into the car before they heaved a sigh of relief.
Zhou Li panted heavily and said,"I've been a manager for five or six years, but I've never enjoyed such treatment. It's too scary. You don't know how many calls I received just now. Those reporters rushed to call me, saying that they could interview me whenever they were free…You have to know that I usually beg them not to come to my door. It's really scary…" She couldn't help but laugh."Hahahaha, this is so satisfying.”
"Do you have to be so silly?" Shen Nan covered her forehead and said in a daze,"But what's going on? I just received more than a dozen calls from the country. They're all asking me about the game just now. Even if it was broadcast, it wouldn't have spread so quickly, right?”
"You're the one who's really stupid." Zhou Li rolled her eyes at him." This is an NBA game. You performed so well and suddenly appeared in the NBA. Do you think the popularity will be bad? Just look at Yi Jianlian and the others when they first debuted. You're going to be famous in America, let alone in China. Your coach even held a press conference for you. In the half hour you went in, I saw at least seven reporters rushing over.”
"Am I famous now?" Although Shen Nan had expected it, she did not expect it to be so exaggerated.
"It's not too much to say that he became famous with one goal.”Zhou Li recalled what she had learned. You'll know when you go back and look at the comments online. Tomorrow's article will definitely be about you, but…" She suddenly thought of something and her expression became serious."You have to adjust your mentality. Although I don't know much about the NBA industry, it's not much different from the entertainment industry.”
"It's all just a show. Maybe there are all kinds of praises and compliments now, but once something goes wrong in your next game, the media can instantly make you fall into hell.”
Shen Nan was slightly stunned, and then he remembered the situation when he was broken by Tony Allen just now. He slowly calmed down." I know, but basketball is actually very simple. It's enough as long as you play seriously.”
"That's true." "Let's go and celebrate." Zhou Li did not want to hurt Shen Nan.”
