Reborn Action Star: Starting in Hollywood

Chapter 139: Thousands of Troops Avoid White Robes 2.0
"Excuse me, what do you think about yesterday's loss?" A reporter from Sports Illustrated was conducting an interview about yesterday's game.

Sports Illustrated, the national sports weekly owned by media giant Time Warner, was the first newspaper to win a National Magazine Award.

With over 2300 million readers per week and more than 300 million paying readers, it covers more than 19% of men in North America.

"I am convinced and have nothing to say. I am very grateful to Lin Yuan for saving us some face at the last moment." Tom Brady said sincerely.

"So what do you think about Lin Yuan saying he won't play rugby anymore?" the reporter continued to ask.

Tom Brady was about to answer when the head coach squeezed over and took over the conversation.

"I'm sorry, Brady was too tired yesterday and hasn't fully recovered today. Let me take the interview on his behalf," said the head coach.

The reason for the temporary insertion was that the head coach was worried that Tom Brady would say something wrong.

The loss in yesterday's game was so ugly that it triggered a crisis in the entire industry. Now there is a lot of panic and the atmosphere is very tense.

If you don't know how to pass the buck in time and avoid the important issues, you will easily step on a landmine.

After all, Tom Brady is still young and too straightforward, so it is not appropriate for him to accept an interview from a cunning reporter at this time.

"Then may I ask what you, Mr. Coach, think of my question just now?"

"Mr. Lin Yuan's main job is still an actor, and he hopes to focus on his acting career. We are very supportive and happy about this.

When his movie is released, all the teams in the NFL will support his movie and help him promote it!"

The head coach's attitude represents the attitude of the NFL at this time. He treated Lin Yuan to good food and drink and sent him out with musical instruments and singing.

Dear uncle, you have seen our good intentions, so please don’t come back!
"Lin Yuan has clearly stated that he will no longer play rugby. Do you think he can perform as well in other sports as he did in rugby?"

This is a good question!

The head coach wanted to give the Sports Illustrated reporter a big hug.

We can't be the only football sport to be embarrassed. If we drag the other three major sports events into the same situation, everyone will be in the same boat.

"I think Mr. Lin Yuan's outstanding physical fitness is enough for him to be competent in most sports. It would be a blessing for the audience if they have the opportunity to see him actively participate in other competitions." The head coach hinted in a roundabout way.

"Really? Mr. Lin Yuan performs well in rugby because it's a sport that relies heavily on physical fitness.

If he doesn't have sufficient training in other sports that require more skills, it's unlikely he'll achieve good results, right?" the reporter asked.

The head coach almost wanted to kiss this reporter, he was so cooperative!
So he smiled and replied: "Then you can try to interview professionals from other events and see what they think."

……

……

What do you think?

Of course it’s you, you bastard, who are such a bad person!

Who asked you to bring Lin Yuan here?

An official from Major League Baseball (MLB) said with a smile during an interview:

"If Lin Yuan wants to play baseball, we will definitely support him. We believe he will be an outstanding baseball player.

But we feel he has a greater talent for film, and we sincerely hope he can become a legendary action star."

When he said this, what came to his mind was Lin Yuan's super fast running speed, as well as the sword and knife skills shown in previous movies.

Who knows what would happen if he used that sword technique to hit a baseball?
If you can avoid coming, then don't come. Give me a few compliments and enough benefits, and I shouldn't force my way in, right?

…………

An official from the National Hockey League (NHL) also replied with a smile during the interview:

"I don't want Lin Yuan to play ice hockey, but it's not because I'm worried that he won't play well. It's because if he does, it will be a huge loss for the film industry.

I am a fan of Lin Yuan. I enjoy watching every one of his movies and often take my family to see them. Under my influence, my whole family now loves him very much.

If he doesn't continue making movies, we'll be heartbroken.

So we still hope that he will continue on the road of film, and we will definitely support him.

By the way, Lin Yuan has a new movie "Pirates of the Caribbean" coming out soon, so everyone must go and support it.

We in the NHL will also be cheering for him!"

This statement is even more flattering than that of an MLB official (sounds like cursing ^_^). He wants to say all the nice things he can to completely block Lin Yuan from considering this path.

……

……

Among the four major professional leagues in the United States, three have already clearly expressed their attitude of keeping their distance from Lin Yuan.

The Sports Illustrated reporter originally thought that he would get a similar answer from the National Basketball Association (NBA).

But the NBA official gave a completely different answer.

His original words were: "Basketball is a sport that requires extreme teamwork and skills.

It would be impossible to reverse the situation if one only relied on one's outstanding physical fitness.

What's more, Lin Yuan is less than 1 meters tall. He is simply a small guy on the basketball court and does not have any extraordinary physical conditions.

Not to mention he hasn’t played much, so I don’t think he’s going to be a very good basketball player.”

When he said this, his expression was very determined.

Even if Lin Yuan runs fast and jumps high, so what?

Just because you can run fast with nothing doesn't mean you can run fast with the ball.

You jump very high, but your height is there, and there are NBA players who can block your shot.

Can you squeeze past those tall and strong centers under the basket when grabbing rebounds?
What's more, in order to score in a basketball game, you need to throw the ball into the basket. It's not like rugby, where you can score by just running into position.

Lin Yuan, can you shoot a basketball?
Therefore, the NBA official believes that Lin Yuan is not a cause for concern.

The other three major competitions require more explosive power, so they are worried about Lin Yuan.

The qualities we need in basketball are more comprehensive, so we may not be afraid of him.

They are so cowardly that they are hiding from a Chinese person. How embarrassing.

When the NBA official's words came out of his mouth, the eyes of the Sports Illustrated reporter lit up!
After interviewing people one by one, they all had an attitude of keeping things quiet and sending the plague away respectfully. It's hard to write any eye-catching reports like that.

And the NBA official in front of him delivered the best ammunition.

So, a report came out immediately:
An NBA official said Lin Yuan is not suitable for playing basketball!
