NBA: Goat is actually me

Chapter 77: IN party, Hollywood actress!
"What are your plans for tonight?" David Falk asked during dinner.

Falk smiled again. You know, he almost went crazy when signing the contract in the afternoon. He couldn't imagine that Meng Jin, a rising star with great potential, would sign a contract with a small brand that he had never heard of!

Falk can't even remember the name of that brand. Falk wanted his clients to sign contracts with big companies like Nike, Converse or Adidas. Everyone knows that it's good to sit under a big tree and enjoy the shade. They pay a lot, have strong publicity, and are guaranteed. Small brands like this may go bankrupt one day, and then his clients will suffer huge losses.

But Meng Jin was too determined, and Falk couldn't persuade him at all.

Meng Jin has his own ideas and can think independently. Falk's suggestions are very important to him, but he will not adopt all of them.

For Falk, the matter is done now and it is too late to say anything. It will only cause conflicts between himself and his employer, so he just lets it go.

"Nightclub? Or you take me to have some fun." Meng Jin looked at Falk with a smirk on his face, then picked up a piece of steak and put it into his mouth.

"I'm not good at having fun." Falk thought for a moment and said, "By the way, Jerry Buss wants to meet with you. Maybe he'll have some fun there."

"Jerry Buss? The owner of the Lakers?" Meng Jin asked.

"Yes, that's Dr. Bass," Falk replied.

Meng Jin tried hard to recall that he had never had any contact with Jerry Buss, never talked on the phone, and never met him.

"What does he want me to do?" Meng Jin asked, and then he picked up a piece of steak and put it into his mouth: "This steak tastes good."

Falk shrugged and spread his hands. "I don't know. Those bosses' minds are hard to figure out. If you don't want to go, I can help you turn it down, but I still suggest you go. Dr. Bass has a great influence in the league."

Meng Jin nodded: "I have nothing to do tonight anyway, tell him I'll go."

Falk wiped his mouth and said, "OK, remember to call him Dr. Bass when you meet him. He likes people to call him that."

Evening, Los Angeles Lakers training hall, Jerry Buss' office.

"Hahaha, welcome, you're the hotshot. The whole basketball world is talking about you now."

Jerry Buss greeted Meng Jin at the door of his office, gave him a warm hug, and then patted Meng Jin on the waist. Meng Jin guessed that he originally wanted to pat him on the back.

Meng Jin also complimented: "Dr. Buss, thank you for introducing the cheerleading team. This is one of the greatest moves in the NBA."

"Hahahaha." Jerry Buss laughed. Meng Jin's angle was very novel. This was the first time he heard someone praise him like this.

After the hug, Jerry Buss took a closer look at Meng Jin:
"Meng! You can go to Hollywood with this face, but you are too tall, so you can only be a special actor."

As soon as Jerry Bass met Meng Jin, he started joking. Bass has a kind of magic that can make people around him feel relaxed.

"Come on, don't stand here." Jerry Buss waved his hand and took Meng Jin into the office.

After Meng Jin sat down, Jerry Buss asked: "Champagne? Brandy? Tequila? Or something else?"

Meng Jin smiled and said, "You decide, your home court."

Jerry Buss walked over to the liquor cabinet and picked up a bottle of champagne and two glasses.

"Gudong! Gudong!"

While pouring the wine, Jerry Buss suddenly asked, "How did you do that?"

Meng Jin was confused: "How did you do that?"

Jerry Buss smiled evilly: "As far as I know, David Stern is not such an easy person to deal with. He is very principled, at least on the surface, but he only suspended you for two games this time and also modified the league rules for you."

"Do you believe me when I say we haven't spoken since the draft, Dr. Buss?"

Bass looked at Meng Jin's eyes for two seconds and then suddenly laughed: "You must have some special personality charm."

"Come on, let's drink to celebrate our new acquaintance."

Meng Jin raised his glass and clinked it with Jerry Buss. To be honest, he still didn't know why the Lakers owner wanted him here.

Meng Jin pointed behind Jerry Buss and said, "The trophy is nice."

Jerry Buss stood up and picked up a trophy: "This is the championship trophy for the 81-82 season."

Then he picked up two other trophies and said, "This is from the 84-84 season, and this is from the 86-87 season. These are all honors I won during the Show-Time era. Meng, you will win the championship trophy sooner or later, but you have to wait until I retire."

Meng Jin laughed: "Dr. Bass, you didn't ask me to come here to show off your trophies, did you?"

"Clap!"

Jerry Buss lit a cigar: "Want one?"

Meng Jin shook his head: "I don't smoke."

Jerry Buss smiled and said, "Good kid."

Jerry Buss sat back on the sofa opposite Meng Jin: "I admire you very much. You swing your fist decisively on the court. I like people like you who are resolute and decisive. Michael plays decisively. I like the way he is on the court, but he is too hesitant when facing conflicts. I like to interact with young people who are energetic and have personality. This is my secret to staying young."

"Here's to your decisiveness." Jerry Buss raised his glass.

"No, Dr. Bass, I want to toast to my fist." Meng Jin said with a smile.

Jerry Buss was successfully amused by Meng Jin: "I like you more and more. I have a party in Beverly Hills tonight. There will be music, fine wine, Playboy girls, and maybe some Hollywood actresses. It will have everything that young people like. Do you want to come?"

"why not?"

Meng Jin decisively agreed to Jerry Buss' request. Meng Jin had never met Playboy girls or so-called Hollywood actresses. He was very interested in and looking forward to this party.

"Daddy, Daddy? Why are you still in the office??"

A blonde girl holding a folder pushed the door open. She looked like Jerry Buss' secretary.

Daddy?

Meng Jin looked at Jerry Buss with a sly smile on his face, thinking to himself, you old guy is quite good at having fun.

Meng Jin looked the blonde up and down. She wasn't hot, but youthful and pretty.

"This is my daughter Jenny." Jerry Buss stood up and brought Jenny to Meng Jin.

Shet!

Meng Jin was shocked. Is this Aunt Jenny?
I didn’t notice it, I really didn’t notice it.

People's faces really do change. For example, the Aunt Jenny in front of us, who was not Aunt Jenny yet, looked completely different when she was young and when she was mature.

"Hey, Jenny."

"Are you Meng? MJ?"

Jenny looked excited and took the initiative to reach out and shake hands with Meng Jin.

Jerry Buss patted Jenny's back with his left hand and put his arm around Meng Jin's waist with his right hand: "Meng, Jenny is your fan. To be honest, I got to know you through her. She cares more about what happens on the court than I do. One day she suddenly broke into my office and told me that she found a big guy, a very special big guy."

Meng Jin nodded in affirmation: "Dr. Bass, your daughter has good taste. My big one is indeed different from others."

Jenny: "Can I take a picture with this big guy?"

Jeanie Buss's eyes were almost tearing after she finished speaking. Buss was interested in this kind of unruly person who did not play by the rules both on and off the court.

Jeanie Buss looks like a blonde, white-skinned, good girl, but she is actually very bold.

Just kidding, if the daughter of Dr. Bath's student is not promiscuous, we really need to do a paternity test.

"Wait, wait, wait, can you two stop flirting in front of your old father? Jenny, Meng is my guest. He belongs to me tonight. If you want to date him, please make another appointment."

Jerry Buss saw that something was not right and quickly interrupted the two of them. This was his office, not a field room.

Jenny pouted at Old Bass and said, "Yes, he belongs to you tonight, but don't forget, Dad, you have to attend the premiere of Angels on Earth tonight."

"Shit! Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Jerry Buss jumped up directly. He had forgotten about this matter. Tom McLoughlin, the director of "Angels on Earth", was his good brother, and he must go to the premiere of his movie to support him.

Jenny rolled her eyes helplessly at her father: “I came here to remind you of this.”

Jerry Buss rushed to the door only to suddenly remember that he had a guest.

It was impolite to leave guests in the office, so Jerry Buss turned around and asked, "Meng, do you want to go to the movie premiere together?"

"OK, no problem."

Meng Jin had never been to a movie premiere, and he was curious and interested in everything new.

Fifteen minutes later, Jerry Buss's stretched Rolls-Royce arrived at its destination.

Meng Jin got out of the car and saw the red carpet under his feet: "Do we still need to walk on this?"

Jerry Buss: "We are big stars, and big stars have to walk the red carpet."

"Crack, click, click, click!"

As soon as Jerry Buss and Meng Jin got out of the car, photographers started taking pictures of them.

"Who's that next to Dr. Bass?" a reporter asked while filming.

"MJ, MJ from the Bulls." The reporter next to him replied.

"Jordan? Not like that."

"It's Meng! How long has it been since you last watched sports news? He's super popular right now."

"Oh, okay, what position does he play?"

"The one who beats people."

"Crack, click, click, click!"

The spotlights flashed in Meng Jin's eyes all the way. Although this was not the first time Meng Jin faced the spotlights, most of the time it was on the court. He still needed time to adapt to the spotlights outside the court.

"OH! Look who's here!" Tom McLoughlin, director of "Angels on Earth", walked up to Jerry Buss and gave him a big hug.

"I thought you weren't coming tonight," Tom McLoughlin laughed.

Jerry Buss: "Oh! How is that possible? I definitely care about my old friend's movie premiere. I started getting ready in the afternoon! And I brought a new friend to help you."

Jerry Buss said, pointing to the side: "Meng Jin, an incredible NBA player from the Chicago Bulls."

Tom McLoughlin looked up. "Oh! What a great big guy, Meng. Nice to meet you."

Tom McLoughlin turned around and said, "Jerry, you should bring such a great big man to Los Angeles. This is a bigger stage."

Jerry Buss smiled and said, "You reminded me. Maybe this will be my goal in the next stage."

Meng Jin: "Nice to meet you, Director. I like you very much."

Meng Jin was just being polite, but he didn't expect Tom McLoughlin to take it seriously.

"Like me? Like what?"

This is simply a death question.

Because before this, Meng Jin had never seen any movies directed by him, and he had never even heard of him!

Jerry Buss was about to come out to help, but Meng Jin spoke first: "I like your bangs."

Tom McLoughlin's thick bangs are very unique, a bit like the hairstyles of the members of the Beatles.

"Hahaha, Jerry, your friend is really bold, I like it." Meng Jin made Tom McLoughlin laugh.

After saying that, Tom McLoughlin extended his hand and called over the actors of Angels on Earth.

"Come on, meet my friends."

"This is our leading man, David Dukes."

"This is the beautiful Emmanuelle Béart, the heroine."

After greeting each other, Emmanuel Béa became curious about Meng Jin.

"Are you an NBA player? Which team?"

“Chicago Bulls.”

Emmanuel Béa nodded: "COOL, good team."

Apparently, Emmanuel Béa had little interest in basketball.

But it doesn’t matter, she doesn’t need to be interested in basketball, as long as Meng Jin is interested in her.

Meng Jin stared at Emmanuelle Béart: "The dress is nice, very sexy." Emmanuelle Béart smiled: "Thank you, I carefully selected it for tonight's premiere."

Then Meng Jin praised everything from the earrings to the accessories.

Meng Jin knew that girls would fall for this, so all he had to do was praise them.

After chatting for a few words, Tom McLoughlin took the main creative staff to receive other guests. They were very busy tonight.

"You try to defeat her." Jerry Buss said as soon as Emmanuel Béa left.

Meng Jin was a little surprised. This Dr. Bass was even more direct than him!

"You can't fool me, you have to find a way to defeat her," Jerry Buss continued.

Facing Jerry Buss's oppressive questioning, Meng Jin raised his hands to show his surrender: "Dr. Buss, I like your directness. Okay, let's have some conversation between men. I don't want to knock you down, I want to knock you down hard, the kind that will shake the earth and mountains."

After hearing this, Jerry Buss hugged Meng Jin and said, "Hahaha, I knew that a person's eyes can't lie. How about inviting her to the party later?"

"Really?" Meng Jin said, Dr. Bass, you really gave me a big surprise.

Jerry Buss: "Of course, you have to believe that Dr. Buss has the ability."

Meng Jin smiled evilly and said, "OK, I'll be looking forward to it."

During the following movie-watching session, Meng Jin was distracted the whole time, his mind was filled with thoughts about the party that would be held later.

Two hours later, Meng Jin drove Dr. Bass's stretched Rolls-Royce to a single-family villa in Beverly Hills, where the party would be held tonight.

As soon as he entered the door, Meng Jin felt dazzled.

The poolside, the living room, and the walkways were filled with bikini girls.

Jerry Buss scratched his head and said, "Oh no, we are the most conservative here."

"Hey! Jerry, you're always late."

At this time, a voice came from not far away.

"Wow! Hugh, you look so energetic today! But you didn't tell me that tonight is a pool party. But it doesn't matter. I can turn this party into a fruit party if you don't mind."

"Hahaha, I don't mind, but your old, wrinkled skin showing would probably scare the girls."

"You must be kidding! I do special maintenance every week and my skin is very tight!"

After the two joked for a while, Jerry Buss remembered that Meng Jin and Hugh Hefner did not know each other.

"This is Meng Jin, the rising NBA star."

"This is Hugh Hefner, the founder of Playboy. We all have to thank him today because 90% of the girls here are sponsored by him."

"Except for the cleaning staff, 99% of the other women were provided by me. It's hard to imagine that this is a party hosted by you," Hugh Hefner complained.

Jerry Buss smiled and patted Hugh Hefner on the shoulder: "With you as my friend, the founder of Playboy, I will never have trouble attracting girls no matter when I hold a party. Well, let's not talk about it for now. We have to go upstairs and change into shorts so that we can fit in at the party."

Ten minutes later, Jerry Buss: "Meng, are these shorts too small?"

"That's right." Meng Jin's voice came from the room.

"Damn, try this one." Jerry Buss handed in another pair of beach pants. This was already the largest pair of beach pants he had. If Meng Jin couldn't fit into them, he would really have to swim naked tonight.

After Meng Jin came out, Jerry Buss clapped his hands: "Perfect!"

Meng Jin looked at himself and said, "It's a little tight and a little small."

Jerry Buss: "That's the effect we want. It's very sexy. Come on, come downstairs. I believe the girls can't wait."

Meng Jin could only go downstairs wearing his tight shorts, and many girls' attention was attracted by him.

You can't tell when Meng Jin is wearing a jersey, but once he takes off his clothes, his sculpted body is particularly obvious, which really adds to his points.

Half of the credit should be attributed to Tim Grover, who forced Meng Jin to do various strength and core training every day. The most beautiful parts of Meng Jin's body now are his arm muscle lines and abdominal muscles.

"Who is this big guy?"

"His pants are tighter than yoga pants."

"Don't stare at his crotch, this guy is pretty handsome."

"Is he some famous person?"

"I've seen him in the newspaper. I think he's a boxer."

"Boxing makes a lot of money. I must approach him later."

Jerry Buss grinned at Meng Jin and said, "See, I didn't lie to you. The girls are all talking about you. My shorts highlight your advantages."

"Thank you so much, Dr. Bass."

"Look at these girls, each one is so glamorous, this is Los Angeles, this is Hollywood!"

"Every year, countless young beauties come here to pursue their dreams. They always dream of becoming famous overnight!"

"Most people here don't mind paying a little price to become famous."

Jerry Buss introduced Meng Jin as they walked.

When he walked to the hall, he snapped his fingers, and a bunny girl with a hot body and a bow around her neck walked over in high heels with a bottle of champagne in her hand.

Jerry Buss took the champagne and took a sip to relieve his dry throat.

"Hey, Jerry, long time no see."

"Hey, David!"

Jerry Buss quickly became busy. He was the one who organized today's party. Many friends came and he had to entertain them one by one.

Meng Jin was not idle either. He walked to a large swimming pool illuminated by colorful lights, and the beauties inside were waving at him.

"Are you Meng?"

At this time, a young man with fluffy hair called him.

Meng Jin recognized him at a glance. This was the Donald that all Chinese people would know in the future. Now he was just a real estate businessman.
"I'm Donald, a New York real estate agent."

Donald subconsciously asked for his business card after he finished speaking, but ended up with nothing because he had no clothes on.

After the man introduced himself, Meng Jin was officially convinced that he had not made a mistake.

Jerry Buss' party invited many celebrities, otherwise it would not have attracted so many hot and sexy girls. These people are smart, and each of them came with a purpose.

"Hello, Donald, have we met before?" Meng Jin asked.

“I’ve seen your games.”

"Which one?"

"I went to the game against the Celtics with my brother. It was so exciting and shocking! I like the move where you grabbed Bird's throat."

"You should watch the next one, it will be more exciting."

After Meng Jin finished speaking, Donald laughed.

"I like you. I like your conversation and the way you talk."

Donald usually expresses his love for someone directly.

Meng Jin also liked this kind of personality. Meng Jin shook his hand and said, "Donald, it's nice to meet you, but I can't chat with you for too long. The girls look a little lonely. They have been underwater for too long. I have to go down and warm them up."

After saying that, Meng Jin dived into the swimming pool, and the splashing water caused the girls around him to scream.

Jerry Buss in the hall raised his glass after hearing the voice: "Ladies and gentlemen, it looks like the party has begun, let's have a drink!"

Meng Jin had fun playing in the water with the Playboy girls. These girls were of very high quality and the aesthetic taste of the Playboy founder was unquestionable.

After playing for a while, Emmanuelle Béart, whom Meng Jin had been thinking about, finally arrived.

Meng acted quickly, immediately put the girl next to him down, went ashore and greeted Emmanuelle Béart.

After saying hello, Emmanuelle Béart and her companion walked into the room to change into the prepared bikinis.

While changing clothes, the female companion suddenly said: "The handsome guy just now is interested in you."

"How did you know that?" asked Emmanuelle Béart.

"Anyone who is not blind can see that."

After that, the female companion began to encourage Emmanuelle Béart: "What about you? How do you feel about him? Don't be reserved, just go for it if you like him?"

"That guy has a good look and a nice figure, but he's too tall. I don't like him because it would be a bit weird if we stood together."

"Okay, okay, you're always so picky."

After changing their clothes, the two walked to the swimming pool, where everyone was cheering.

Jerry Buss pointed to the basketball hoop next to him and said, "Come on! Our basketball star, show us your skills."

Meng Jin had no intention of taking action, but he couldn't resist the screams of the girls in the audience.

"OK, no problem, give me the basketball." After picking up the basketball, Meng Jin took a running start. He still paid great attention to safety. If he was injured while dunking at the pool party, he would be laughed at by fans for the rest of his life.

Jerry Buss acted as a makeshift DJ: "Girls, our superstar is here, run up, jump, dunk!"

"boom!"

The moment he landed, the whole place fell silent and the girls covered their mouths one by one.

Where's the applause?
Where's the scream?

Meng Jin was very confused, and when he looked down, he found that his shorts were torn.

Meng Jin originally wanted to show off his skills in front of the girls.

The result was that her legs were exposed.

"Shet!"

Meng Jin quickly covered his crotch and went to the room to change his pants.

Playboy founder Hugh Hefner patted Jerry Buss on the shoulder and said, "Jerry, my eyes are blurry. Is what I just saw real?"

Jerry Buss was also stunned: "I hope I was dazzled just now."

Emmanuelle Béart's female companion was shocked for three seconds before saying, "Emmanuelle, if you are not interested in him, I must take him tonight."

Emmanuelle Béa swallowed and said, "I'm suddenly interested in tall guys. They make me feel safe."

Her female companion looked at her with contempt and said, “That’s not what you just said.”

"Hey! There's someone in there."

When Meng Jin was changing his pants, he suddenly heard the sound of a door being pushed open behind him.

Meng Jin was startled and turned around to see that it was Emmanuelle Béa.

Then it'll be fine.

"Hey, that dunk you just did was awesome."

Emmanuelle Béart walked over and approached slowly.

The atmosphere became ambiguous.

Meng Jin hadn't changed his pants yet, so he simply didn't change and put his arm around Emmanuelle Béa's neck: "I have something even more exciting."

Outside the room, dynamic music sounded and everyone was swaying, like a group of demons dancing wildly.

"The party's on, where's Meng?" Hugh Hefner asked.

"Leave him alone, he's in there enjoying his party!"

Jerry Buss just saw Meng Jin go in and Emmanuel Béa followed him in, and neither of them came out for half an hour.

Anyone who is not mentally retarded knows what they are doing.
