I'm going to start off by introducing all three characters. All three of them are similar but different in their own way. They also aren't related in any way, they just look alike and have the same name. One of the characters is an overseas basketball player. He is very good and on the verge of going to the NBA. He's a focused person and is hard to knock off his grind. He works hard at everything he does, not just on the court. The second character is a businessman who is rich and doesn't care about anything and I mean anything. He doesn't have a filter when talking to people unless he's handling business or talking to important people. The third character is a famous video photographer who is known around every part of the world. He is who they would call a hustler because he's always trying to find a way to make more money. 

So, this all began on an early, cold morning in 2032. The overseas basketball player is waking up for his early morning workout session before he gets his day started. Mind you this is on his gameday. But, after his workout, he gets a call from his agent about a big endorsement deal that could possibly change his life forever. The businessman who's in charge of that whole endorsement, told the overseas basketball players agent that he would be at his game later on to see if he wants to go further with the deal. After the overseas player was told that he had to go crazy tonight or else that endorsement is out the window, he instantly went to the arena to get up shots. He ended up shooting a little over 1,000 shots, finishing with 82 percent. He knew he was going to have a good night after that. 

He ended up going to get food to prepare himself for the night. In the warmups he's not missing a shot at all. The businessman got his attention and gave him that look like you know what you need to do. The announcers called his name, and the businessman was looking confused because he had the exact same name as him, spelled the same and all. He didn't think much of it though because he's thinking it was just a coincidence. The overseas player ended up scoring 43 points, 8 rebounds, 10 assists, and 5 steals. Before he went into the locker room, the businessman shook his hand congratulating on the win and telling him that he has some good news for him in the upcoming meeting. 

The next day he has the meeting at noon, so he wakes up early again to do his early morning workout and that has him feeling good for his meeting coming up. Before the meeting starts the businessman pulls the player to the side and introduces himself and talks to him about them sharing the same exact name and spelled the same way. That transferred into the meeting and the businessman was astonished and instantly put a max guaranteed deal on the table. The player agrees on the deal and that changes his life forever. He is now rich and he spends some of that money on a new music studio for him.The overseas player has been writing down lyrics for his own music since he was 17. He just never got in the studio because he always had basketball and where he lived nobody had a studio. Which is the main reason why he built his own studio with that endorsement money. 

A couple days after the businessman and overseas player had that meeting, the businessman got in contact with his agent to let him know that his player could possibly make an easy bonus. All he had to do was record a song and drop it. As the businessman got off the phone, he was walking to his office and ran into this video photographer. At first, they were both trying to get to know each other and something seemed off because they looked alike, sounded the same, and had the same exact name. Again, the businessman didn't think too much of it, and got to the business part of the conversation. To make the long story short, the businessman was doing the overseas player a favor by getting him a cameraman to record and edit his video. After they were done talking, he just stayed in the same spot and was trying to process that he saw three people with the same everything just not the same profession or they dont act the same. The businessman hit up the players agent again because he thought he was going crazy. 

Meanwhile the overseas player just got done with his new song and all he was waiting for was the video. This was perfect timing that the businessman called even though it was for a reason that was completely off topic. Once he and the player's agent got done talking about that, the agent let him know the good news which was that the player was already done with the song and was waiting on a cameraman to record his video. With the agent not knowing, the businessman told him that he already got the player a cameraman. He gave the players agent his number and once the phone call ended the agent instantly called the cameraman to set up the video shoot. They scheduled it for the next day. 

The next day came and the overseas player woke up early that morning for his early morning workout to get his day started. Once he was done with that he showered, ate, then chilled until it was time for the video shoot. It came time for the video shoot and the businessman ended up being there because he wanted to see both the cameraman and the overseas player together to see if they identically matched each other and they did. All three of them were in shock when they were in the same room together because they all had the same exact face. It was like looking in the mirror times two though. Before the video shoot started they all were having a conversation trying to figure things out because it wasn't adding up. After their hour long conversation they had the video shoot and it was successful. Which led up to them going out to get food and learn more about each other. Ever since that day, they ended up being close friends as if they were brothers.
