Chapter 843 You meddling bastard
Bringing Kobe back to Philadelphia is a key step in Wesha's revenge against the Lakers.
From the current point of view, it is impossible for Wei Xia to rely on his own affection to lobby Kobe to leave the team he has played for 20 years, so he has to launch an offensive from the inside.
The complexity of the relationship between Kobe and his family is comparable to understanding Da Sima's thousand-layer theory.
But Wei Xia believes that the family relationship cannot be broken just by saying it, not to mention that Kobe and his family have no irreconcilable differences.
It just so happened that there was a strong mother, a father who didn't know how to coordinate, an equally strong wife, and Kobe himself who couldn't help himself.
In order to solve Kobe's family conflicts, Wei Xia deliberately went to understand his family conflicts.
The main conflict is Kobe's mother Pamela and Kobe, and Pamela and Vanessa.
The reason is simple, Pamela doesn't like Vanessa, because Vanessa's family conditions are very average, and she is not worthy of Kobe at all.
Vanessa thought that Pamela was inexplicable. Your son scattered roses all over the place where I was studying in order to chase me, and it took a month of thick-skinned hard work before he gave in. Why do you say that I love your son?
Kobe was also unhappy. He was controlled by his mother since he was a child, and finally rebellious syndrome broke out after he became an adult. Coupled with the mentality of "I have grown up, I can make decisions for myself", he completely went to the opposite of his mother.
As for Kobe's father, Joe Bryant, he has some prejudices against Vanessa, Wei Xia is not sure.
The main conflict between Old Joe and Kobe was because Kobe stopped giving him money.
When Kobe and Adidas signed the first sneaker contract, the rules required that part of the endorsement fee be transferred to Old Joe.
But starting from Kobe's second sneaker contract, he canceled this rule.
Old Joe wanted to be self-reliant, so he encouraged Kobe to buy a team in Italy.Kobe likes Italy far more than the United States. He has always hoped that his children will grow up in that romantic country, so as to stay away from the gun culture in the United States.Moreover, buying a team early can also prepare yourself for the future. After retirement, you can run the team. If something bad happens in the later years of your career and you can’t get along in the NBA, you can go to your own team for retirement and continue to have unlimited firepower.
Kobe overestimated his father's abilities.
Old Joe boasted that he came from the NBA and had lived in Italy for many years. Therefore, he decided to build the Olympia team, which was already very strong, according to the NBA. He offered one outrageous contract after another, comparable to Isaiah Thomas.Where did Kobe get so much money to waste in the early days?By the time he realized it, Old Joe had already lost millions of dollars, and the Olympia team had changed from a strong contender for the championship to a bad team with serious financial problems.
When Kobe was held accountable, Old Joe even said that Kobe didn't know how to start from the overall situation.
what is this?
For example, Wei Xia bought the Guangdong Hongyuan team in order to find a job for his father, and then Wei Mingliang built the team according to the Celtics' management model he learned from the newspaper.Randomly opened contracts, made random offers, and invited some foreign players who couldn't even stay in the NBL to be the bosses. Within two years, due to poor management, Wei Xia stopped.
For foreigners, this is just Weixia/Kobe losing money, but what about local fans?
I was dismantled by you just like the king of the league. This is not only a personal economic loss, but also a major loss to the basketball league of a country.
After that incident, Kobe was completely disappointed with Old Joe and his family, and the subsequent break was a concentrated outbreak of a series of problems.
After so many years, Pamela must know that he can't kick Vanessa away from Kobe-from the current situation, she is the one who is kicked away.
And Old Joe's problems are easy to solve. All problems that can be solved with money are not problems for Kobe now.
Wei Xia did a lot of things secretly. Today, before entering Kobe's hometown, he specially sent a photo to Kobe: "Guess where I am?"
Not half a minute.
"What are you doing there?"
"What are your plans?"
"Don't go in without other important things!"
His three text messages could be combined into one, but they were sent in three, which shows that he was in a hurry and didn't have a clue, so he sent whatever came to mind.
"If I send a gift in your name, will they be suspicious?" Wei Xia said a few seconds after sending the text message.
Kobe called.
"Don't do superfluous things!"
His tone sounded like a warning.
"Excessive things? I heard it right. As a friend, I will send you a Thanksgiving gift to your parents in your name. Is this superfluous?"
"You don't know the situation, don't mess with it!"
At this moment, the door of Bryant's house opened suddenly, and Pamela saw Wei Xia.
"Wish, why are you here?"
"That's it." Wei Xia pretended to turn off the mobile phone, but actually pressed the speakerphone, then held the mobile phone in his hand, and said to Pamela, "That guy Kobe pretended to be ruthless all day long, but in the end he insisted that I must deliver this Thanksgiving gift to you."
As long as Wei Xia wants to do something on behalf of Kobe, Pamela will say this: "Why doesn't he come by himself?"
"He may be a little shy, but his heart is here. Believe me, he already knows that he is wrong, but he is unwilling to admit his mistake. You have watched him grow up, and you know what kind of person he is. It is difficult for him to admit his mistake." Wei Xia explained in a long-winded manner, "He once identified three Korean female stars as the same person in front of me. I corrected him, but he insisted that the three were triplets. This guy is just like that."
Pamela instinctively defended her son when she heard the words: "That's because you Asians all look alike!"
If she said that, Wei Xia would not be convinced.
Does he look similar to Yao Huang?
Are Li Yuchun and Zeng Li similar in appearance?
Are Zeng Zhiwei and Tony Leung similar in appearance?
Well, among these people, Pamela at most knows him and Yao Huang, "His excuse is similar to yours. They are indeed mother and daughter, so can you accept this gift?"
The way Pamela wanted to refuse but didn't know how to refuse made Wei Xia want to laugh.
She finally took the gift, "Let him come by himself next time!"
Not necessarily next time.
"Wish, come in and sit down." Pamela took the initiative to invite, and Wei Xia happily responded and hung up the phone.
Kobe must be looking forward to the follow-up, but he just wants to whet this guy's appetite.
No matter how arrogant you are, Sibaer!
In the next ten minutes, Kobe called many times to eavesdrop, but Wei Xia happily hung up the phone.
"You fucking want to die?"
When Kobe sent a threatening text message.
Wei Xia laughed out loud, smiled back, and blocked it.
One word cool, two words happy!
"Wish, why are you so happy?" Old Joe asked.
"A person who is eager to satisfy his curiosity frequently calls and harass me, don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"Ridiculous! This is exactly the same as the flesh and blood that was blocking the door of the hotel begging for my one-night stand back then!"
Wei Xia smiled even more happily: "You are so right!"
Wei Xia has many advantages that can make him fit into the Bryant family.
First of all, he tends to take the route of self-deprecating for these objects he wants to curry favor with.
Usually he would use his self-deprecating skills on others, but when he wanted to get closer to others, he would dig out his dark history.
In addition, he had to say a few words for Kobe at the right time.
For example, all the incidents of Kobe's sorry family are brainlessly attributed to Los Angeles, a city that makes people forget themselves.
"If Kobe stays in the city of friendship, he will definitely keep his original appearance." Weisha's words aroused the pride of Old Joe as a Philadelphian.
Old Qiao said excitedly: "That's right, that's what I thought!"
Wesha stayed at Bryant's house until late in the evening before leaving.
Before leaving, Pamela gave Wei Xia a bag of sausages she made by herself: "Say hello to your family, Wish."
"Thank you."
Wei Xia said with a smile: "I say hello to Kobe for you."
Pamela Classic: "Let him do it himself!"
"Sooner or later!" Wei Xia waved and left.
He returned to the car and played some light music.
Liberate Kobe from the blacklist.
He texted Bryant: "Your family would like you to do these things yourself if you can."
This time, he didn't reply in a hurry like before.
He seemed to be thinking.
Wei Xia casually took a grilled sausage made by Pamela himself.
As soon as the sausage was eaten, Kobe replied to the text message, but the intense spiciness attached to the sausage made Wei Xia really understand what Kobe said back then-"the food that embodies our black people, our blood, sweat and tears! Every dish contains hundreds of years of resilience. From the beginning of the war to liberate the slaves to the day when Dr. King was shot, the struggle of countless people has raised countless great black people!"
How can he feel such a great food as a Chinese?
Although Pamela's grilled sausage made Wei Xia's mouth full of hot and sour taste before he got home, but he was very satisfied. He felt that he had spent a very meaningful day, even if he didn't read Kobe's reply letter, it was meaningful.
When a person is living a full life, there will always be a happy smile on his face.
Wei Xia returned home with a smile on his face. His brother and sister were setting the table, and Elaine came to greet him.
Wei Xia gave him a kiss directly.
"What's the matter with you?" Elaine was frightened, "What's the matter with your expression?"
Wei Xia shook his finger at his wife like Mutombo, which is the pleasure of people who have done good deeds.
Pamela's grilled sausage was spicy in Wei Xia's mouth, and sweet in his heart, and Kobe's reply undoubtedly made those good things swell in his body.
"Thank you for everything, you meddling bastard."
