Chapter 12 Penguin Bet on Wang Xiucheng
At 1:30 a.m., a reluctant Kat Dennings drove away from the stadium alone.
She hadn't finished filming in Dallas, so she secretly ditched her assistant and drove to Houston.
If we can't get back during the day, something really could go wrong.
Wang Xiucheng watched the car drive away, feeling at least several teeth marks on his shoulder, and couldn't help but laugh and cry.
Wang Xiucheng finally understands why young players like Jalen Green, LaMelo Ball, and Zion Williamson all like older women.
"When young, one does not know how good an older sister is; one mistakenly regards a young girl as a treasure."
One word, fragrant!
Regardless of whether the performance was good or not, compared to He Yuman's behavior of wiping her mouth and running away after eating, Dailins completely considered Wang Xiucheng's feelings and dignity.
Yes, it is dignity.
If Wang Xiucheng hadn't covered Dailins's mouth in time, Christopher and his gang would have almost overheard it.
"Could it be that my attributes have been enhanced, making me stronger?"
Wang Xiucheng was somewhat uncertain, thinking that he should try to find He Yuman again someday.
Back in his car, Wang Xiucheng didn't go home immediately, but instead opened the system.
When Kate Dennings is offered to you, how could Wang Xiucheng refuse? That's equivalent to 1000 points!
Wang Xiucheng was worried about not having any points to use.
[Completed the branching task, rewarded with 5000 system points and three lottery cards. Want to draw a prize now?]
5000 points? And three more lottery cards?
Wang Xiucheng was stunned. How could it be so much more than He Yuman?
After setting aside a few unrealistic differences such as age, Wang Xiucheng thought about it briefly and came to a conclusion.
"It should be brand recognition."
Dailins's fame is clearly incomparable to He Yuman's.
System What does this mean?
Let me leave my "talent" in America?
After making a comment, Wang Xiucheng looked at the three cards.
【Lottery Card】
[Once activated, you can participate in one lucky draw.]
[You can receive one of the following rewards: skill cards, system points, skill card slot unlocks, or skill module unlocks.]
"lottery."
After silently reciting the instructions, Wang Xiucheng began the lottery draw.
In an instant, the lottery card transformed into a roulette wheel and began to spin.
Soon, the pointer stopped at "Module enabled".
The reward area for "Module Activation" was highlighted, but the pointer started spinning rapidly again.
A few seconds later, it stopped in the "System Points" area again.
"The lottery has been completed. Prize 1: Unlock the shooting module and unlock the first skill card slot for this module."
Prize Two: 1000 system points.
Wang Xiucheng was slightly surprised; the reward was a choice between two options.
Although you can only get one reward in the end, at least it's like having one more chance.
"Choose prize one."
Wang Xiucheng, who lacked the ability to shoot, would naturally choose the first reward.
"Continue the lottery."
The second lottery card began to spin like a roulette wheel.
A few seconds later, it stopped at "Third skill slot of the transmission and control module is open".
Skill slots can be unlocked using system points, so this reward isn't very cost-effective.
"continue."
The last lottery card began to spin.
Soon, it stopped on the "Skill Card".
Wang Xiucheng's heart raced.
Skill cards are obviously the most valuable, and Wang Xiucheng urgently needs shooting skill cards, so he is inevitably a little nervous.
"Lottery draw complete. Reward: one skill card."
Wang Xiucheng breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled.
Although this lottery card, like the second one, only has one selectable reward, it is a skill card.
[Skill Card: Increases throwing accuracy by 0%]
[Equipping this skill card in the Passing and Control module increases the floater accuracy of players assisted by the host by 0%.]
[Equipping this skill card in the shooting module increases the host's floater accuracy by 0%.]
Spending 10 points will increase your hit rate by 0.1%.
[Note: This card's effective area is within the three-point line, and it cannot be stacked with other skill cards that increase hit rate in the same area. Only the effect of the skill card with the higher hit rate will take effect.]
"This... is a pity."
The last sentence in the description essentially means that this skill card cannot be stacked with the previously obtained "two-point shot accuracy improvement".
In other words, Wang Xiucheng's two skill cards can only be equipped in the "Passing and Control Module" and the "Shooting Module" respectively.
Opening the skill bar, Wang Xiucheng equipped the throwing skill card into the newly opened "shooting module".
Obviously, this card is for personal use, since you can't control whether other people use a throw every time.
Wang Xiucheng checked his system points again; he now had 6730 points.
When there are no matches, the system will have some training tasks. Wang Xiucheng has accumulated 730 points in the past few days but hasn't used them.
Dailins just gave him another 5000 points, plus the 1000 points from the lottery, which is why Wang Xiucheng has so many system points.
All that hard work in several games couldn't match one of Kat Dennings's performances.
Without hesitation, Wang Xiucheng began upgrading his throwing skill card.
Using 5500 system points at once, Wang Xiucheng upgraded his throwing skill to 10%.
[Skill Card: Increases throwing accuracy by 10%]
[Equipping this skill card in the Passing and Control module increases the floater accuracy of players assisted by the host by 10%.]
[Equipping this skill card in the shooting module increases the host's floater accuracy by 10%.]
Spending 110 points will increase your hit rate by 0.1%.
[Note: This card's effective area is within the three-point line, and it cannot be stacked with other skill cards that increase hit rate in the same area. Only the effect of the skill card with the higher hit rate will take effect.]
With this floater that increases the accuracy by 10%, Wang Xiucheng now has at least one way to score.
After closing the skill interface, Wang Xiucheng opened the attribute interface. After a series of operations, the attributes had changed.
Birthday: December 24, 2002 (18.8 years old)
[Barefoot height: 191cm] (10 to 0.1cm)
[Wingspan: 192cm] (10 = 0.1cm)
[Weight: 88kg] (1:0.1kg)
[Standing vertical jump: 82cm] (10 = 0.1cm)
Maximum vertical jump: 93cm (10 = 0.1cm)
Speed: 81 (10 to 0.1)
[Strength: 71] (10 to 0.1)
[Stamina: 61] (10 to 0.1)
[Charm: 81] (10 to 0.1)
[System points remaining: 0 points.]
The system points, which were previously as high as 6000, were reduced to zero in just a few minutes.
The benefits included Wang Xiucheng receiving a skill card that increased his throwing accuracy by 10%, as well as a comprehensive increase in his physical attributes.
Although this increase does not seem to be much.
After finishing all this, Wang Xiucheng cracked his neck, fastened his seatbelt, and left the stadium.
……
China, Shenzhen.
The office building where Tencent Sports is located.
meeting room.
A dozen or so people are having a meeting.
"That's the situation. What are your opinions, leaders?" asked the head of Tencent Sports' NBA department.
The dozen or so people around the round table looked at each other, and finally one of them spoke first.
"You mean, there's a Chinese player in the NBA, but he's with the Houston Rockets?" the man asked, looking at the meeting materials in his hand.
"Yes, according to our broadcast guest speaking privately, this player should soon be able to get into the NBA rotation, and..."
The person in charge turned on the large TV behind him and played a video of Wang Xiucheng flirting with a female referee during a game against the Mavericks. "This player is extremely good-looking; at least our female anchors have become his fans."
These people understood the subtext of the sentence almost instantly.
This player is talented, good-looking, and appeals to both men and women.
This means he has the potential to become a national idol.
"Is he good enough to make the national team? If he can't, he might still be banned."
Someone asked with concern.
Just like Wang Zhizhi in the past, any media outlet had to cooperate in censoring him with just one word from the higher-ups.
This player has been in the US since high school. How much affection does he still have for China? Is he still willing to serve his country?
"Besides, that's the Houston Rockets..."
The other person asked hesitantly.
They hadn't expected this person to be so troublesome, having collected almost all the debuffs.
If nothing happens, fine, but if this happens suddenly, no one can withstand it, and all the resources invested will be lost.
"I know what everyone is worried about. After all, CCTV hasn't started broadcasting NBA games yet, but Migu has already started providing commentary for the Rockets today. The highest number of online viewers we detected was over 5 million, while the highest number of online viewers for our free live broadcasts today was less than 10 million."
It's important to understand that Tencent has cultivated its presence in the NBA for many years, coupled with massive user support, which is why it has achieved this success.
But Migu easily approached that number of online players with just one match.
If things don't change, the penguins will soon be overtaken, or even left behind.
After all, Migu is backed by China Mobile, a state-owned enterprise with hundreds of millions of mobile users, not much less than Tencent.
Upon hearing that the number of people online was specific, these people immediately relented.
"You can provide some traffic support as you see fit, but you need to keep a close eye on CCTV's movements. Also, it's best to figure out the player's intentions and personality. If something doesn't seem right..."
"I know how to do it."
