Kobe: Do you know what Los Angeles is like at four in the morning?

I don't pay attention to the NBA, but I have been listening to the existence of Kobe Bryant, a formidable person in basketball. What makes me admire Kobe? Do you know what Los Angeles is like at four o'clock every morning? Interviewee:

The reporter asked:? Why are you so successful?

Kobe asked? Do you know what Los Angeles is like at four o'clock in the morning?

The reporter shook his head. I don't know, so tell me what it's like in Los Angeles at four o'clock every morning.

Kobe scratched his head and said that the sky was full of stars, with few lights and few pedestrians. ?

Speaking of this, Kobe smiled. I don't know what it is. But it doesn't matter, do you think? Every day at four o'clock in the morning, when it is still dark in Los Angeles, I get up and walk in the dark streets of Los Angeles. One day has passed, and the darkness in Los Angeles has not changed at all; Two days have passed, and the darkness has not changed at all; Ten years later, the street darkness in Los Angeles at four o'clock in the morning has not changed, but I have become an athlete with strong muscles, abundant physical strength, great strength and high shooting percentage. ?

I checked Baidu Encyclopedia: Kobe is one of the best scorers in NBA. He is familiar with breakthrough, shooting, free throws and three-pointers, and there is almost no offensive blind spot. The personal record of 8 1 minute in a single game strongly proves this point. In addition to scoring crazily, Kobe's organizational ability is also outstanding, and he often serves as the first sponsor of the team's attack. In addition, Kobe is one of the best defenders in the league, and his personal defense is very oppressive.

For Kobe's training at 4 am, the famous American trainer Robert? Aleith's "My Training Story with Kobe" is a full and accurate proof of what Kobe said. The book records such a story:

During preparing for the 20 12 London Olympic Games, Robert came to Las Vegas with the American men's basketball team.

It was the night before the players started practicing together. Aleith, who has been busy till late at night, is getting ready to go to bed. Just then, Robert's cell phone rang. He thought, who will call at this time? Because it's half past three in the morning.

There should be no accident! Robert answered the phone nervously. It's Kobe. ? Mr. Robert, I hope I'm not disturbing you. ? Kobe said. So polite, there is no airs of a great man. Although Robert was almost sleepy, he said politely, How can I bother you? Kobe, can I help you? The other end of the phone said,? I wonder, can you help me do some physical exercise? Sure, see you at the gym later! ? Robert hung up the phone and hurried to the training hall. He doesn't think Kobe can wait there forever.

When he arrived at the training hall, Jing surprised Robert. I don't know when Kobe got there, but he was soaked with sweat after training, as if he had just come out of the water.

Seeing Robert pretending to be very energetic, Kobe saw it and said, thank you. Can we get started? Under the guidance of Robert, I did 1 hour and 15 minutes of physical training, followed by 45 minutes of strength training. It's almost 6 o'clock in the morning. Robert felt that he couldn't hold on any longer and said, I'm sorry, I'm going back to the hotel to rest. ? Kobe said,? Thank you for your hard work! All right, I'll practice shooting. ?

According to the arrangement, in the morning 1 1, Robert, who has only rested for more than four hours, will go to the training hall to guide the whole team to practice together. When he arrived at the training hall, some players who had arrived were chatting with the coach and discussing something, but Kobe was still sweating and practicing shooting. ? When will you finish? Robert said with special emotion. Kobe asked? End what? Robert said,? Shooting training. ? Watching the basketball thrown in his hand draw an arc and fall into the basket, Kobe said, this is the end. ? It turned out that the ball was his 800th ball that day.

This record in Robert's book is just a day and a fragment of Kobe's long sports career. In fact, since he entered the NBA, it has almost always been like this. When most people are still asleep, he has appeared in the Lakers' training room, but he is not always guided by a trainer.

Kobe said: As long as I am playing basketball, I want to win the championship. He is not so much a superstar as a unique spirit: ability, ambition and hard work.

Article 2:

Tang Wei: The days after the ban.

I have my own foundation, which has been ignored by most people for a long time. I was admitted to the Department of Chinese Opera Directors by virtue of my own strength, and became a professional model as soon as I entered school. During my college years, I also studied performance, broadcasting and fine arts, and obtained the qualification of national second-class badminton player. I have acted in TV plays and dramas, and I have been a drama director. I have won many awards, although not international awards, but these awards have confirmed my footprint step by step.

Lust, Caution not only made me, but also easily erased my previous achievements. No one mentioned my past, as if I were an airborne soldier, and I fell directly on the podium of the Golden Horse Award. The adjectives given to me are luck and opportunity? These words have nothing to do with your own efforts? I really want to be famous, but I can't deny my efforts.

Then, I was burned. I calmly clicked on the harvest after the big red and black: the Golden Horse Award for Best Newcomer, a cosmetic advertisement endorsement, a vase, overnight fame, excessive performance, and bad influence on teenagers? I'm like A shares in Shanghai Stock Exchange. After rushing to the highest point in history, I collapsed.

I chose to go abroad for a period of time, not to escape anything, but because I didn't want someone to keep asking me about my future plans. In my opinion, the future is not spoken, but made.

I went to England, and my net worth was all: Lust, Caution, 500,000 yuan, and advertising endorsement, 800,000 yuan. When signing the contract, it was agreed that the endorsement fee was 6 million yuan, but the new advertisement stopped after a few broadcasts. Although I can keep the 4.8 million after 6 million tax for myself, a gentleman loves money, and I finally paid it back.

Before I go out, I don't know how long I will stay abroad, and I don't know how long the money will last. But I'm not worried. I think I can make myself live well.

I was going to find a school to study, but I found it unrealistic. First of all, British art colleges have high basic requirements for students, with IELTS score above 6.5 and TOEFL score at least 1550. My English level is far from the requirements for admission. Secondly, tuition fees in Britain are high. Even in a public university like university of the arts london, officially admitted students charge 6,543.8+0,000 pounds a year, while self-funded students charge 30,000 pounds? Forty thousand pounds.

I weighed my wallet and gave up the idea of studying at my own expense. Then I found a language training class, specializing in learning English. My goal is to get a full scholarship with good grades. I inquired clearly: The maximum scholarship in university of the arts london is18,000 pounds per year? With it, you can not only go to school for free, but also earn all the living expenses.

Then I began to think about economic problems. The money in hand can buy a house and a car in China, but it is just the annual salary of a white-collar worker in Britain. And I don't know when I will have a chance to make money, so I don't want to use this old money. And I know that if one is willing to use his head, he will definitely come up with a way to kill two birds with one stone.

Two things I learned in college came in handy? Art and badminton. In Britain, buskers are very rich? Money way? As long as you have a skill and can show it on the street, you will get a reward.

My first time? Performing arts? This is a street fashion show. I tear off ordinary clothes with old newspapers and pin them on my body. I wear paper clothes, stand on the street, and put a hat in front of me, even if I start a business. In order to match the fashionable colors, I put on thick powder and painted makeup similar to Japanese geisha. Seeing my strange shape and fresh ideas, passers-by soon began to throw coins and banknotes enthusiastically. I have an MP3 player on my waist and headphones to listen to English songs. If you are tired, change your posture. After standing by the roadside for two hours, I earned 26 pounds and 55 pence.

In the eyes of the British, any behavior related to creation is regarded as art. I paint Peking Opera masks on my face with oil paints, and I have money to collect them. Carry a bucket of water and write calligraphy on the sidewalk with a brush made of sponge. Move a chair, draw portraits of passers-by, and get paid? Take out two hours a day and think of an idea, and you can always earn dozens of pounds. This money is enough for my daily expenses and makes my life in England less difficult.

Except? Performing arts? , I still? Prostitution? . Playing badminton has brought me higher income.

In Britain, labor costs are very expensive. I found a club, played a game with the resident coach, and then talked with the boss and became a part-time sparring partner of the club. It's 80 pounds per hour, the boss charges 20 pounds for management, and I earn 60 pounds myself. About 0/5 hour per week/kloc, earning 900 pounds? Just bear the rent and the cost of language classes.

In this way, a month after I arrived in London, I became self-sufficient from living on my laurels. This self-sufficiency not only gives me a stable life, but also makes me more confident.

Four months after I arrived in London, I received a strange phone call from Long Biyi, president of Weinstein Brothers Film Company. He said that I wanted to make preliminary contact to see if there was any possibility of cooperation.

A week later, when I was wrapped in a disposable tablecloth. Fashion? Long Biyi appeared in front of me with a smile when performing art in the street. He praised me for being creative and beautiful, and we had our first simple communication. What makes me happiest is not his praise, but that I can communicate with him in fluent English. We talked for a quarter of an hour, and then Longbiyi invited me to dinner. After making an appointment for dinner, he left a note of 100 euros in my hat. He said that as a partner, he invited me to dinner; As a passerby, he paid for my performance art.

After all, being a busker and badminton sparring partner is to earn a little money. I think my talents are more than that, so I turned my attention to my old job? Professional model.

Because of Long Biyi's recommendation, I met a group of famous British makeup artists and image designers, and finally came into contact with them. London Fashion Design Week? Gare, a fashion designer with fixed cooperation.

I told Gary that I am a professional model with rich stage experience and an oriental charm and temperament that other models under his command don't have. I showed him my photos, and I believe that the close-up profile and bright red lips are enough to impress any designer.

I succeeded, in 2008? London Fashion Design Week? Actually, I became Garfield's? Royal model? . I walked on the runway of the fashion show in his latest Gothic mask fashion. I don't have an agent. Gary and I decided the price ourselves. Worked as a model for a week with a salary of 20 thousand euros.

Gary is very satisfied with me. With his help, I got to know many designers of international first-line brands. It can be said that as long as I am willing to develop in the British fashion industry, I believe I will grow into the most concerned fashion model in a short time.

Just as I was making optimistic plans for the future, I received a phone call from Hong Kong because? Outstanding talent? Plan, I got my Hong Kong ID card, and Hong Kong invited me to develop.

What greeted me in Hongkong was a contract with Jacky Cheung's new film Crossing Hennessy. When I was going to star in a new movie, I had to make up lessons again because my Cantonese was poor. I think it is essential to communicate with people in order to achieve good development in a new environment. Everyone around me speaks Cantonese. I can't change this environment, so I have to adapt to it, because at any time, the fittest survive, and only by mastering it can people go further.

She was banned, and she was so confident when she performed on the street. Some people are fine, and even cry every day that they will not live in this life. . .

Zhang Quanling, CCTV anchor: I want to do it again in the second half of my life.

Zhang Quanling

1997, Zhang Quanling was admitted to the international department of CCTV as a reporter, director and host of China Report. In 2000, Zhang Quanling was the host of the new edition of Oriental Time and Space, People Weekly, Focus Interview and Press Room, and won the 11th Yangtze River Taofen Award on 20 10.

20 15 in early July, Zhang Quanling confirmed his resignation from CCTV. /kloc-In July of 0/3, he joined the Fu Sheng team as a consultant and became the founding partner of Niuzi Fund.

Starting from scratch is not to deny, but to dare to let go. The most difficult thing to let go of is not fame and fortune, not a habitual lifestyle, but a mode of thinking. I think I'm ready, put it down and start over.

I am 42 years old. I came to CCTV in 1997, and it has been 18 years now. No matter from which point of view, life is already over half. Everything is going well. According to the usual perspective, success has been achieved. According to the usual plan, it is still the best news platform and the best location. There are still many things to do. The original heart has not changed. My initial intention is to satisfy curiosity and not be lonely.

The determination to change the origin is a false alarm. To put it simply, at the beginning of 20 15, I coughed up blood every day so that the doctor suspected that I had lung cancer. After exclusion, it prompted me to think about life from another angle. If I don't regret that life is over, if it can last twice as long, what should I fill it with? Where should my curiosity point?

In fact, since last year, I have paid special attention to the Internet. I began to understand some new logic and ideas. For example, wool can grow on pigs and dogs will die? The listening rate of some radio programs for taxi drivers has dropped, not because there are better programs, but because drivers stop listening to the radio when taking orders with Didi. It's like a ruthless sentence in "Three-body", I will destroy you, which has nothing to do with you.

In a word, this is another world, which can't be explained by my accumulated knowledge and logic for many years. And it, no doubt, is infiltrating into every aspect of my life that I am used to.

I began to have a fear. The world is turning pages. If I am not curious and eager to learn, I will be trapped in the past page like an ant, as if I saw the same world and those words. And the real world has nothing to do with you.

One day I read an article about Hawking and Leonard, a theoretical physicist at California Institute of Technology. An article co-written by Mon Rotino. The article begins with a description of such a scene. A group of goldfish are kept in a round glass fish tank. Which is more real, the world they see or the world we live in? In the world of goldfish, because light refracts when it enters the water, objects that are not affected by external forces move in a straight line in our view, while in the eyes of goldfish, they move along curves. And if goldfish are smart enough, then goldfish can also sum up a set of physical laws in their world. Although, for us outside the goldfish bowl, this rule is simply nonsense. But the question is, how do we know that we are not in a larger round goldfish bowl that we have not observed?

In fact, life is trapped in glass jars from time to time. After a long time, I get used to a kind of self-evident logic, which is profound and can form a self-consistency between theory and practice. This is true from career to emotion, from life planning to thinking mode.

I suddenly feel that if my curiosity is already outside the fish tank and my body is still in the fish tank, my heart will be confused. I began to ask myself a question, should I leave CCTV 18 where I worked and see the world from another angle?

At this time, Fu Sheng, CEO of Cheetah, took me to meet a group of entrepreneurs from China and the United States. They have a brand-new way of thinking, cutting-edge ideas, youthful vitality, and the motivation to keep moving forward despite their immaturity. They are like a group of scouts in the new world. They are the future.

Think about it. Write it down.

I want to grow up with them.

This requires me to re-establish a more open attitude towards learning, and it also requires time and energy to devote myself to it. Anyway, through the glass.

It takes courage to jump out of the fish tank, out of your accustomed environment and out of what you are good at.

And me, should I take the risk? When I was 42.

Graham, a famous American investor, believes that the most suitable age for starting a business is 25 years old. Because 25-year-olds. Energy, poverty, rootlessness, classmates, ignorance? Weapons. The ignorance here is that entrepreneurs simply don't know how difficult the future of starting a business is, so they have nothing to fear. As for me, at the age of 25, I don't have the ability to stay up late, and I don't have the convenience to pack up everything and move out at any time.

In fact, when I proposed to leave, those who loved me and wanted to protect me were firmly sayingno. At this age, from the perspective of marriage, any decision must be accepted by two people, not one person's pleasure. I always feel guilty talking about changes with teachers who have given me opportunities to give me advice for years. I said, I didn't carry out the precious persistence in a good system to the end.

The only thing I have is my curiosity, which still exists when I am 42 years old. Hard work does not sharpen people's curiosity. Fortunately, people who love me just want to protect them. They love me after all. Knowing me is murder.

I want to jump out of the fish tank, not CCTV, not the system, but my thinking mode that has gradually solidified.

I didn't convince them, even myself, that it was safe for me to jump out of this step. Many of the earliest creatures that left the ocean must have died out before the lungs fully evolved. Now I'm ready to let go. What about failure? This is just another beginning.

The most precious thing in life is time.

Although 42 years old has lost the advantage of being 25 years old, it will be 43 if you don't start. In fact, as long as curiosity and courage are still there, there is no time to start.

So, this is my new beginning, the partner of Niuzi Fund. And Niuzi Fund itself will start venture capital in a brand-new way. Fu Sheng, CEO of Cheetah Mobile, Luo Zhenyu of Luo Ji Thinking, Zhang Ying of Jingwei, Li Xueling who plays more games, Yao Jinbo of 58 cities, Xu Xiaoping of Zhenge Fund, and Su Mang of Fashion Group, we will look for the purple cows on the cusp together and bring you real help in starting a business.
