Chapter 16 Press Conference
For the press conference, Gu Yu naturally would not refuse.
Although in the past and present, this is the time he stood in the spotlight.
But Gu Yu is well aware that as his strength and reputation continue to increase, he will surely be surrounded by the media spotlight like James in the future.
On the way to the press conference, old Sutton was also teaching Gu Yu some small routines for dealing with reporters.
“For the sake of newspaper sales, journalists often ask some difficult questions to answer. If it is not convenient for you to answer, you can ask the next question.”
“If you are asked to evaluate your opponent, you will praise the opponent. The stronger the opponent, the more powerful you can be.”
“If there are some reporters who keep asking why you barely shot today, you can say that it’s because of the recent weight gain and the feeling is not good.”
“…”
Old Sutton’s routines taught by words and deeds, Gu Yu also somewhat understood in his previous life.
After all, the future is the era of the explosion of the Internet and traffic. Stars deal with the media in a fancy way, and interview videos after the game are everywhere.
Gu Yu has watched a lot, and he knows how to deal with the media.
press conference.
Director Zhang and Yu Jia are also looking forward to the next interview at this time.
Since it was the upper management of Yangma who suddenly decided to let the two interview Gu Yu, the two did not have time to make an appointment, so they interviewed Gu Yu separately and could only follow most of the reporters to the press conference.
Looking at his peers in front of him, Yu Jia sighed to Director Zhang: “Dayao, he played in the NBA last season, and he didn’t have so many reporters to interview!”
“There are 82 games in the regular season, this is Gu Yu’s first show, can it be the same? Gu Yu was popular before…”
Director Zhang was interrupted by the exclamations of his peers before he could finish speaking.
“GuYucameout!”
The translation is that Gu Yu came out!
Then Director Zhang saw that Gu Yu came to the scene with old Sutton.
Click!
Click!
Click!
……
The sound of the camera shutter on the scene was one after another.
What the hell!
Can’t open my eyes!
Gu Yu did not expect at this time that the reporters were so crazy at this time.
When ordinary people take pictures, a camera may shake ordinary people so much that they cannot open their eyes.
At this time, the reporters were pressed in black, and the shutter of the camera was continuously pressed down.
You can imagine how uncomfortable it was for Gu Yu to be shaken at this time.
However, in order to cope with reporters, Gu Yu couldn’t open his eyes even if he was shaken, and he had to have a smile on his face.
Smile on the surface, MMP in the heart!
It is Gu Yu at this time.
As soon as Gu Yu sat down with the old Sutton, the reporters could not wait to start asking questions.
“Gu Yu, this is your debut, how do you rate your debut?”
“Can you talk about the video of you putting the coin on the top edge of the backboard?”
“Gu Yu, many people think that your talent is the strongest among the yellow race. What do you think of this?”
“…”
Facing the reporters with long guns and short guns, Gu Yu hadn’t spoken yet, and Old Sutton took the lead.
“Quiet! Quiet! I want everyone to be quiet!”
“Today’s interview, everyone came to interview one by one. Now everyone please calm down first, and then please ask everyone one by one.”
The old Sutton, the future Hall of Fame coach, still had a lot of weight in his words. The reporters also quieted down at this time, and took turns to ask Gu Yu.
The first question was a blond female reporter.
“Gu Yu, this game is your NCAA debut, and your performance is also very good. Can you comment on your performance in this game?”
This question may seem like a very common question, but if you look closely, you will know that this question is actually very difficult to answer.
There are only two answers to this question. The first is to praise himself, and the second is to be humble.
The hardest part here is the scale.
Once it’s too much, the first one is not good, and under the media’s fueling, it will give fans a sense of conceit.
Second, if you are too modest, you will appear a little unconfident.
For fans, it may be nothing, but for the draft, it is definitely a minus.
In the draft report of Brother Gouqi, it is clearly written that his shortcomings are the lack of focus and passion.
“I care more about whether the team wins than my personal performance. I am looking for victory, not my personal performance, or what stats I get.”
Perfect!
Old Sutton was also a little surprised at this time. He did not expect that Gu Yu, who was facing the camera for the first time, could have such a perfect answer.
Then the female reporter asked again: “What do you think of today’s opponent, the Buffaloes?”
This question was expected by the old Sutton, so Gu Yu was ready to blow his opponent.
“The Buffaloes are very strong. They have the No. 1 center in the Big 12, David Harrison, who is a great opponent.”
“Harrison’s performance today… Defensively, it’s been very good.”
With 8 points, 5 rebounds, and 4 turnovers, Harrison, Gu Yu can only praise him for his defensive contributions.
After answering the female reporter’s question, a black-haired and yellow-skinned female reporter began to ask questions.
No, the reporter from the flower family, but from the stick country next door.
The female reporter from Bangzi Country began to ask questions in slightly jerky English.
“Gu Yu, hello, I’m a reporter from Bangzi Country.”
Gu Yu was also a little surprised at this time. He didn’t expect reporters from Bangzi Country to come to the press conference today.
“Hello, is there anything you want to ask?”
“As a super rookie in the NCAA, would you enter the 2004 draft?”*
