NBA backer king

Chapter 108 Applying for a Gun License
After this game, there will be a three-day window period, and then there will be a wave of home games against the Lakers, Timberwolves, Clippers and Heat.

On the 4rd, the team had a day off to let the players relax in Los Angeles for a day, and on the [-]th they returned to Phoenix.

Lao Wang didn't intend to waste this day, so he got up early in the morning, took out Roberts' personal business card after breakfast, and called him.

"Ring Ling Ling..."

Over there, Roberts was still sleeping under the quilt, as if he was having a sweet dream, when he was suddenly awakened by the ringing of the phone, and it took a long time before he reached out and grabbed the microphone on the bedside table.

"Miss Roberts, I bet you're still in bed." Immediately, an unfamiliar man's voice sounded from the other side, with a New York accent.

"Sorry, are you?" She was a little confused.

"I'm old K, a man who is pursuing you."

"Oh, also a man who disturbs my sweet dreams."

"Have you dreamed of winning an Oscar?"

"how do you know?"

"Haha... Well, Miss Roberts, I'm free today, and I want to see the prosperity of Los Angeles, would you help me?"

Roberts was lazily lying on the bed. A man full of hormones wanted to chase her. The intention was obvious. He definitely didn’t want to have a spiritual relationship with her. She recalled the process of getting along with old K, and she felt okay. She had never dated a man in the sports world, so let’s go deeper and see how she feels.

"OK."

As soon as she finished speaking, Comrade Wang's cheers sounded over there, and she laughed too.

"Old K, what are you doing?"

Seeing Lao Wang rushing into his room, grabbing his men's perfume and spraying it on, Buckley asked.

"Go on a date." Old Wang said with a smile.

"And Miss Roberts?" Buckley asked quickly.

"if not?"

Lao Wang put down the perfume, turned and walked towards the door.

"Is TT ready? Don't get to the critical moment, oh shit, her car is too small for me, I'm too tall."

Barkley laughed strangely from behind.

"Ha ha……"

Kevin Johnson, who was in the same room, just got up and fell on the bed laughing again.

"boom!"

In embarrassment, Lao Wang closed the door hard.

"Fortunately Brother Zhang asked me to apply for a temporary driver's license, otherwise I would have wasted another opportunity."

Sitting on a Mercedes-Benz SUV prepared for him by the hotel, he set off on the road carefully.

He has been in the United States for more than half a year, and he has never had any contact with women. During his short time in the provincial team, he chased after a girl from the women's team.

Now he is chasing a Hollywood female star, who seems to be a little famous, and the beginning is not bad, it can be regarded as a preliminary hook up, so I don't know what the result will be.

Two hours later, Comrade Wang was forced to park his car on the side of the street. When he arrived in Los Angeles for the first time, he was completely lost.

"Ha ha……"

I had no choice but to call Roberts, who couldn't help laughing after hearing it.

"Okay, haha, old K, don't go anywhere now, just park there, I'll come to you by car. By the way, tell me where you are now."

After laughing, Roberts asked.

Half an hour later, her Ferrari appeared in front of Lao Wang.

Leaving the Ferrari by the side of the road, the two left in an SUV.

"Old K, do you have a driver's license?" Seeing that the speed of the car was like a turtle, Roberts asked quickly.

"Yes, I just got a temporary driver's license." Old Wang said.

"Oh, a rookie."

Roberts stroked his forehead, then made a sign of the cross on his chest, praying in his heart, hoping that he could return home safely today.

"Where are we going?" asked the old man.

Roberts gave Lao Wang a blank look, and said angrily, "Men, you asked me out, and you asked me where to go? Didn't you make any arrangements?"

Lao Wang thought to himself that of course I want to go to the hotel, but I was afraid it would be too abrupt, he hesitated for a while and said: "It's almost noon, let's find a nice hotel for lunch?"

Roberts raised his forehead, instead of going to a restaurant for lunch, go to a hotel. Is the food in the hotel better than the restaurant?Damn old K, what's your idea?

"The car behind seems to be following us." Lao Wang said at this time.

Roberts glanced back and said, "That's a reporter. He's been following me since I left the house."

"Do you want to get rid of them?" Old Wang asked quickly.

"NO, don't! Just let them follow."

Roberts immediately stopped her instinctively, she still wanted to live, she had just become popular, the days were still long, and Oscar was waiting for her.

"Ham, they drive so slowly, I bet they must be doing something in the car." In the car behind, the paparazzi with a camera said.

"boom!"

The driver named Ham immediately kicked the accelerator and drove over.

"Crack clap..."

The two cars were level in an instant, and the paparazzi with cameras frantically took pictures.

But soon, he stopped, stared blankly at the SUV next to him, and asked blankly, "Hey, old K, what are you doing?"

"You idiot, can't you see that I'm driving?" Old Wang said angrily.

"Why are you driving so slowly?" the paparazzi still asked blankly.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to keep up if you drive too fast." Lao Wang yelled angrily.

"Old K, you are humiliating me. My previous job was a professional racer around the city." Tom next to him yelled dissatisfied.

Next, the two cars moved forward slowly.

"Okay, tell me where you are going, and we will wait for you there." Finally, after 10 minutes, Tom couldn't help it, and shouted loudly.

"Impossible, follow slowly." Old Wang said.

"boom!"

An angry Tom stepped on the gas pedal, flung a cloud of black smoke, and disappeared into the street.

"Tom, are you not following?" the paparazzi said in surprise.

"Fuck me, I'll go crazy if I keep on following. The speed is 15 yards per hour. They drive at night, and they may not be able to reach any hotel. I want to curse the old K for not bringing TT with him. Yes, he didn't bring it, and there is nowhere to buy it nearby." Tom cursed.

"They left?"

Roberts looked at the paparazzi going away in surprise, why is he so impatient today?

Well, her patience doesn't seem to be much left, damn old K, are you just dating me like this?People running on the side of the road can pass you.

"Stop the car, old K, let me do it." Finally, she couldn't help shouting.

"It's because there are too many cars on the road, so for your safety, I drove very slowly." Old Wang explained awkwardly.

"Thank you, but let me do it anyway."

The two changed seats, and Roberts sat in the driver's seat. After adjusting the seat, he kicked the accelerator and the SUV started to go wild.

Not long after, the two came to Hollywood's Sunset Boulevard, which is considered the most prosperous area in Los Angeles.

Roberts also didn't mind that there were a lot of reporters here, and showed them aboveboard that she was dating Old K.

As a star, she also needs to be exposed, and it's just normal for her to date a man.

Through contact, she has some understanding of old K.

A bit rustic, the media said that he was a coolie in New York Chinatown two months ago.

Well, I'm still a little stingy, I don't have a mobile phone, I don't even have a pager, and the clothes I wear are not good enough. Today I am wearing the same outfit as last night. This is impossible in the upper class. It is a bit rude and lacks etiquette.

But with a giant, she has a sense of security, and last night's game, let her see the unstoppable strength and style of old K, that kind of brutal temperament, which is what attracts her.

In short, being with old K gave her a sense of freshness, and she wanted to try it.

"Old K, I'll take you to buy some clothes that suit you. You need more high-end clothes to match your social status." She said.

"Social status?"

Old Wang is a little confused, what social status do I have?

His living environment has changed too much in the past two months, so he hasn't adjusted, or he can't adapt.

In fact, in the United States and the entire Western society, the social status of a sports star is still very high. He is now considered a well-known star in Phoenix and the entire state of Arizona. His attention in that area is still good, and the sales of jerseys and other peripherals are also not bad.

In the United States, since he bombed three 20+10s on the head of Dameng and Robinson, plus the attention caused by the basket collector, he has now accumulated a certain reputation.

Two hours later, Comrade Wang returned to the hotel in a daze carrying several bags of clothes and shoes.

On this date, he didn’t take advantage of anything, that is, he held hands and didn’t even get a goodbye kiss. He also spent more than 2 US dollars on clothes, and more than [-] RMB for four sets of clothes and a few pairs of shoes. The money spent made his teeth hurt.

Barkley and his party didn't know where they went, but they happened to come back to the hotel and ran into each other in the lobby.

"Old K, what have you gained? Oh, all of them are high-end suits, are these given to you by Miss Roberts? Are you going to change careers and eat soft food?"

cried Barkley.

Lao Wang was stunned, and quickly asked: "Brother, do you also think I have the capital to eat soft rice? Yes, I am like you, my teeth are not good, so I am suitable for soft rice."

"Haha..." A group of people suddenly burst into laughter.

The next day, on the 4th, the Suns ended their trip to Los Angeles and boarded a special plane back to Phoenix.

As soon as Lao Wang got on the plane, he picked out a disc of Princess Xian, put on the earphones, and started listening to the song.

Speaking of which, Princess Xian stood in front of him, and he probably wouldn't recognize her, but her songs were his favorite, and there were many tapes of Princess Xian in his hometown, all of which were pirated.

At this time, news of his dating with Roberts appeared on the entertainment pages of major newspapers.

"It's in the newspaper again?"

Yu Feihong took the rental car and rushed to the set, and saw Wang Tiejun's news from the Los Angeles Daily, but this time it was not only the sports section, but both the entertainment section and the sports section, all on the front page.

She felt unbelievable. Julia Roberts is a popular first-line actress in Hollywood. She has won two nominations for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress in the first few years of her debut. She needs acting skills and box office, but she is actually dating a Chinese who plays basketball?

"This old Wang seems unusual. Why is there no news about him in China? By the way, it should be because basketball has little influence in China and he has been in prison."

……

The Suns arrived in Phoenix. Because they had a holiday yesterday, they didn't disband after landing. Instead, they drove to the training base in one car and had an afternoon of recovery training.

"Old K, there is some unfriendly news for you, do you want to hear it?" During the training, the chief trainer Aaron Nelson said.

"What's the matter?" Old Wang asked in surprise.

"The league has begun to replace the new basket, and the first one to be updated is our home court." Aaron Nelson laughed.

"Son of a bitch!"

Lao Wang was stunned, this was simply killing him!How will he earn points in the future?It's too immoral. People who do this will definitely have a bad ass.

"Ah..."

At the NBA headquarters in New York, in the president's office, Stern sneezed four or five times.

This afternoon, the Lakers arrived in Phoenix, and at the request of reporters, held a press conference at the hotel.

"Mr. Divac, now the media suspects you of diving in the game the day before yesterday, do you admit it?" asked the Phoenix Sports News reporter.

"Of course not, I believe the referee's eyes are discerning." Best actor Divac said sternly.

"Have you considered joining Hollywood?" the reporter pressed.

"NO." Divac said with a dark face.

"According to Stallone, Julia Roberts once said that your acting skills are not as good as hers. She can trick old K into giving her artificial respiration on the spot, kneeling down and begging her not to die, but you can only trick a whistle. Do you think her words are correct?" another reporter asked.

"Pfft!"

Someone at the scene didn't manage their expressions well and laughed.

"..."

Divac looked around, pretending to be speechless.

……

At 04:30 in the afternoon, the training was over. Comrade Wang and Zhang Lili, who drove to pick him up, went to a communication company and applied for a mobile phone card.

Back in the car, he took out his phone, put the card in, and immediately sent Roberts a text message.

This is what Roberts recommended him to buy yesterday. It is not too big or too small, and it is just right for him, but it is not the one with a touch screen that Barkley and the others bought, which cost him more than 2000 dollars.

"Old Zhang, I don't think it's convenient to live with you. Do you think about it..." Old Wang said while driving.

Lao Zhang reluctantly put down the newspaper in his hand, and said angrily: "I haven't written the horoscope yet, so you think I'm in the way? He's in Los Angeles, so a freshman star, can he come to Phoenix to find you?"

"No, I think it's easier to maintain my privacy living alone." Old Wang hesitated.

"Okay, okay, I'll move right away when I find a house, right? It's an extra expense, life is not easy!" Lao Zhang said helplessly.

"Okay, now let's go buy a gun." Hearing that Lao Zhang agreed to move out, Lao Wang suddenly became happy.

"Why are you buying a gun?" Lao Zhang asked in surprise.

"The United States is too dangerous, I want to arm myself." Old Wang said.

The two came to a gun shop again, which contained a wide variety of guns, long and short, large and small, and even sniper rifles.

"Hey, old K, do you want to buy a gun?" The owner of the gun shop is a big fat man. When he saw Lao Wang, he recognized him immediately.

"Yes, why don't I come to your place to buy milk powder?" Old Wang nodded.

He took out his passport and handed it over.

The boss looked at it and said in surprise: "Old K, you don't have a green card?"

"I didn't apply, and I don't have time," Old Wang said.

The boss shrugged his shoulders, he knew it was someone fooling him, so he stopped asking, and said, "Then you probably don't have a gun license either, you can indeed buy the required guns with a foreigner's passport, but you have to apply for a gun license from the FBI first.

There are three gun licenses in the United States, rifles, shotguns, and pistols.There are five types of gun licenses, namely restricted gun license, commercial gun license, restricted commercial gun license, special gun license, guard license..."

After the boss briefly introduced the gun license, he began to introduce the gun situation here.

Next, under the guidance of his boss, he first filled out the application for a gun license, and then filled out an application for a hunting license, which he prepared to submit to the FBI.

"This, this, and that..."

After finishing the work, he excitedly ordered five or six kinds of long and short guns, and asked the boss to take him to shoot targets.

"OK."

The boss is also very happy. Target shooting costs money, so I will make a small profit today.

"Bang bang bang..."

Lao Wang stayed at the shooting range for more than an hour. He and Lao Zhang shot about [-] rounds in total. It was not until it was getting dark that they reluctantly walked out of the shooting range.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, at 9 o'clock in the morning on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, the Sports Department of CCTV is holding a meeting within the department.

Sports Minister Li Zhuang said: "Yesterday, the ministry received an invitation from the NBA. They invited us to send people to the United States to interview this year's All-Stars. At the same time, they also gave us the right to broadcast the All-Stars for free. Let's talk about it. Will we broadcast their All-Stars this year?"

Several middle-level backbones of the sports department looked at me and I looked at you, and then began to discuss.

After discussing for a few minutes, the matter was settled. This year's All-Star broadcast will be broadcast live, and reporters will be sent to the United States to conduct interviews.

At this time Li Zhuang said again: "There is one more thing. The NBA mentioned one thing. There is a young man in our country who joined their league. He is a center."

"what?"

This sudden news surprised several people.

Li Zhuang said again: "I have already contacted the sports committee, and there is indeed such a thing. However, they provided a new situation. This young man named Wang Tiejun has been imprisoned in China. It is a criminal case. He was imprisoned for one year and was expelled from the original HEB Provincial Team and the National Youth Team. After he was released from prison, he went to the United States and joined the NBA.

At present, the Sports Commission has not publicized this matter to the outside world. Knowing that there are not many people who play in the NBA, Wang Tiejun, now tell me, how should we proceed with the report? "

"Minister, I wonder what attitude the basketball department has toward Wang Tiejun?" someone asked.

Li Zhuang said: "Ah, the Sports Commission has no clear regulations on this matter, saying that people who have been imprisoned cannot enter the national team, but the national team has stricter management than the local teams, and they will definitely not let such people enter at will. After all, the influence from the top and bottom is not good. There are many people who want to join the national team. Everyone is staring at it. If you dare to let such a person in, others must not make noise?
Therefore, the current attitude of the basketball department is to wait and see. After all, the Olympic Games have just passed, so there is no rush.I talked with Liu Yuming, their new director, and that's what Director Liu said.

In my own opinion, if Wang Tiejun's strength is mediocre, then the national team will definitely not be able to enter, but if his strength is really outstanding, he must be at least a head higher than Shan Tao. In the end, the basketball department may go to him.Our results in the Olympic Games last year were not very good. We lost all seven games and ranked at the bottom. "

"The national team has indeed been full of talents in the past two years. I thought they could make it to the top eight, but in the end they couldn't win a single game. They were picked up to the 12th place. Director Jiang resigned when he got angry." Someone said.

"I've watched the men's basketball game in the Olympics, but the center is not good enough. I agree with the minister. If Wang Tiejun is really good, the basketball department will really go to him." Another person said.

In the discussion among the crowd, after careful consideration, Li Zhuang finally said: "Let's see this, play it down, Wang Tiejun is not an All-Star, maybe he won't be able to meet him."

"I think it's okay, the minister has comprehensive consideration."

"agree."

"Also, Minister, we are going to the United States for interviews. It is best to invite someone who is familiar with the NBA." Someone suggested.

"Here, let me contact the basketball department and see if they have any recommendations."
