After defeating the Timberwolves, the Suns players have two days off and the New Year is here.

The American New Year is January 1st, which seems a little silent compared to Christmas. In the eyes of many Americans, Christmas is the new beginning of the year. After Christmas celebrations, there is no need to celebrate the New Year.

Chinese people don’t think so, so Guo Xu has something to do during the New Year. He was invited to attend the Chinese New Year’s Day party in Phoenix.

Since the 1990s, Phoenix has quietly ushered in new development opportunities. According to the 2000 census, the total population and Chinese population of Phoenix both surpassed San Diego, becoming the sixth largest metropolis in the United States and one of the most important Chinese settlements.

The large number of job opportunities, low living expenses, stable social security and unique cultural landscape are the main reasons why Chinese people continue to move in, and Guo Xu also likes this very much.

Phoenix City has a famous Chinese cultural center, located near the Airport International Airport. It was developed and built in the 1990s by a subsidiary of China's large state-owned enterprise China Grain and Oil Import and Export Company in the United States.

The Chinese gardens and all Chinese buildings in the Cultural Center were designed by experts hired by China, and replica attractions from various scenic spots and historical sites from five cities in Jiangsu and Zhejiang have become landmarks in Phoenix City.

As more and more Chinese people are coming, the annual Chinese celebrations in Phoenix City are becoming more and more impressive. Local Chinese schools, Chinese newspapers and even Chinese radio stations have also appeared one after another.

Guo Xu attracted a large number of Chinese fans. At home, he could see support slogans written in Chinese. As the biggest star in the city and a representative figure, his promise to participate in the party made all Chinese excited.

Originally, the organizer only wanted to hold a party with a few people like last year, but the progress in the past week was unexpected. After knowing that Guo Xu would be a guest and appeared on the show, many people wanted to participate, and quickly turned into a large-scale overseas Chinese celebration party. Many people came to the nearby Los Angeles area.

Being the sixth largest city in the United States has also brought advantages to various activities of Chinese people. After some coordination, the evening party was successfully held at the Mesa Art Center.

Behind a success is countless hard work. For many years, Chinese people in Phoenix City have been working hard to promote the exchange of Sino-US cultural exchanges. They contribute money, time and energy to organize and organize various celebrations every Chinese traditional festival.

Guo Xu only came to love this city for a few months. Except for the hot summer, he needed to stay at home and blow up the air conditioner, everything else made him feel comfortable.

After the party started, the program was compact and exquisite, and the audience applauded continuously. When Guo Xu appeared the finale, the atmosphere was reached.

The organizer's original plan was to sing a song, but he only had that "original" song but it was not suitable for him. It was impossible to create a new song in the short term, so he had to decide to cover him with a Chinese song. It was not enough to sing, and the audience would definitely feel that it was not enough to step down in a few minutes.

Finally, after some discussion, Guo Xu decided to combine Chinese and Western cultures, perform a talk show first and interact with the audience, and then sing.

After the host introduced, Guo Xu walked out of the backstage and waved to the audience, immediately receiving the warmest applause of the night.

Guo Xu said: "To be honest, I am really, very honored to be invited here today. I have been preparing for the show tonight for more than a month. Today I can complete the talk show in Chinese throughout the whole process, and there will definitely be no English words mixed in, which is very unsound."

The audience gave some applause.

"Everyone must know that I ranked first in the NBA All-Star voting this year, and then someone on the Internet said that I was a genius who produced one in Qiannian. I was very unhappy." Guo Xu paused deliberately and began to say a joke. "Those who produced one in Qiannian are turtles. We don't have this in the west, but we only have 4 out of New York. We live in the sewer to eat pizza every day."

The audience burst into applause again, and everyone could understand the Ninja Turtle Thorn, which is a very famous cartoon.

Next, Guo Xu interacted with the audience, and told a few interesting stories about his childhood, why he spoke two languages, etc. He spoke Chinese at home and English outside, and when he grew up, he would have two languages.

The host asked a question on the side, saying that he was very British when speaking English and was called sexy. He also asked if he liked the UK too?

"Of course, I think the UK is the most beautiful country in Europe, and many cities are impressive, especially Paris."

There was a burst of hilariousness in the audience. Guo Xu waved his hand and changed his words: "London, I'm talking about London. This is a slip of the tongue. The photographer must not broadcast this episode."

The host asked: "I heard that you, Wang Zhizhi and Yao Ming are both friends, have done activities together in China. You also suggested that Wang Zhizhi join the Celtics. Is that true?"

Wang Zhizhi said this in an interview, thank you very much for Guo Xu.

He performed well in the Celtics, averaging 17 minutes per game, scoring 7.5 points and 3.2 rebounds, shooting 44.3% from the field and 40% from the three-point shooting, which is 0.2 more points than Tony Barty who played 25 minutes. Although he is not a star, with poor rebounding and defense, he has already gained a foothold in the NBA.

"Yes, Dazhi asked me which team was good at that time, and said that the agent suggested that he join the Clippers." Guo Xu took a deep breath, squinted his eyes and said, "I asked him, the Clippers are Los Angeles second team, the famous NBA bad team. Haven't your friend advised you not to join the Clippers?"

The audience was quiet, and Guo Xu continued, "Dazhi said, 'They encouraged me to challenge.' I was shocked at the time: 'To be honest, do you have friends?'"

There was a burst of laughter from the audience. It was very plain to say the same thing from Wang Zhizhi, and it was fun to say it as soon as Guo Xu said it.

The host asked: "Dazhi thanked you later?"

"He said that the two teams invited me to dinner when they were playing, and the Sun and the Celtics had not played. He knew that I like Chinese culture and gave me a few MV discs as a thank you. He is his favorite Chinese female singer Karen Mok, and said I will definitely like it."

The host asked: "Did you listen? How do you feel?"

"I looked at it for a while and called Andre Miller. You actually have Chinese ancestry, right? I just saw your sister in MV."

There are many people who look like each other in the NBA. Karen Mok and Miller are just a couple. In the future, there will be "Uncle Jordan Jordan", "Stephen Vivian Hsu", "LeBron Chang Zhenyue" and so on.

Most viewers didn't understand this meme, and they just went back and searched for the photos of the two of them and understood it.

After chatting for twenty minutes, Guo Xu sang beyond the classic song "The Sea and the Sky". This inspirational song is also very famous in foreign countries. As soon as Guo Xu opened his mouth, everyone knew that it was his own voice and it was a real sing. As an athlete, his lung capacity is amazing, his voice is much louder than Huang Jiaju, and there is no tremolo.

Forgive me for being unruly and indulging in my life, I will be afraid that one day I will fall down and betray my ideals. Everyone can do it, but I will be afraid that one day you will share with me...

With the same lyrics, Huang Jiaju sings about struggle, goal, and motivation. Guo Xu sings the domineering spirit of a superior, and the audience can hear extraordinary confidence from his smile and loud voice.
