(Read the full text of the Reading House without pop-up windows)
It was not too pleasant to return with a winning streak. When the Warriors players arrived at San Francisco International Airport, they were warmly welcomed by fans who came to pick them up. A group of people shook their heads and wagged their tails onto the airport bus. They all looked red and showed off their power.
It's been a long time since I felt so good. When the Black Eight was successful last season, San Francisco and Oakland fans treated Warriors players like this, and there will be no more in the future.
The reason why fans are so happy this time is not because they won several regular season games, but because the Warriors have played strong opponents in a row, which has shown their strong potential. The core lineup of this team is very young and is very likely to create an unprecedented peak.
Chamberlain is only a little over nineteen years old, West is just in his early twenties, Ellis is not too old, although he is a little older than Lupps, but so what? This guy is famous for his health and has not missed the game since he entered the league.
The organizational guard is a strange position. Compared with the players in other positions, their peaks are all at the back. This is a position that relies on their brains to make a living. The older they get, the more valuable they are. Billups has not reached the peak of the golden age, so fans have high expectations for him.
After Chamberlain returned home alone, Li Qun returned to China. The Beijing headquarters of the magazine recruited a group of college students to prepare for talent reserves in March. She participated in the training as a special instructor because she was the fastest promoted person in the Asia-Pacific region of Sports Weekly, and because of her relationship with Chamberlain and the Warriors, she is now very popular in the sports circle.
In addition, there is another important thing about Li Qun. Chamberlain endorsed Mengniu Milk, and the latter organized a basketball event in China called "Mengniu - Ultimate Player". According to the original agreement, Chamberlain was going to be a guest in the summer to attend the event. Li Qun went to explore the way and helped him organize the event.
Chamberlain is very busy in summer. He has to play in the Olympics, he has to develop his skills, and participate in various activities, among which these activities are the least important, so Li Qun helps him explore the way, cut off some unnecessary things, and try to take up his time as little as possible.
After getting off the plane, Chamberlain was picked up by Cao Hong as soon as possible. They had prepared a press conference at the Golden Branch Hotel, and there was a big news to be released.
When he arrived at the hotel and entered the lounge, Chamberlain saw a huge figure sitting on the sofa and playing with PSP. Compared to its dustpan-like palm, this PSP handheld machine was a bit too small. This man could almost cover all the buttons with one finger. However, his fingers were very flexible, and he only used his nails to point the keyboard, and the operation was perfect.
The appearance of this person made Chamberlain overjoyed. It turned out that Yao Ming was here.
They played against the Rockets at home for the second time, but when they were at the airport, Chamberlain noticed that the Rockets' special plane had not arrived yet, so Yao Ming must have taken a passenger plane to San Francisco. As for why, the reason is very simple, and he supports him.
Chamberlain went up and snatched the psp from Yao Ming's hand. Yao Ming, who had always been gentle, became anxious this time and shouted: "Give it to me quickly, give it to me quickly, I'm about to pass the level, my god, I've played for five days before I met Boss!"
Seeing that he was really anxious, Chamberlain returned the psp to him. He looked at the picture of the handheld machine. It was the 13th generation of Final Fantasy. This game was launched last year. Chamberlain was still idle at that time and had already played all these games through.
In this game, the story stage Ivanlis is a grand world with plural countries. Here, the high level of civilization coexist with rich nature, and gives people the feeling of medieval and modern times, because the disputes between countries and the contradictions between races are always constant here. This world was created by the Mediterranean model based on ancient Europe and Arab culture. Various sub-ethnic races are also mixed on the streets, who have their own language, prejudice, and worldview.
There are still many unknown worlds that have not been covered by civilization in this world, and there are various crises hidden there. Aircraft as a means of movement are of course an indispensable means of transportation. The air is full of various airships, and there are also many merchant ships and cargo ships staying in the city. The Ivanli civilization is not only an advanced mechanical civilization, but it is solemn and beautiful. This is a unique worldview that combines sword, magic and modern engineering civilization.
The powerful military country that dominated the valentia continent, the Arcadia Empire and the Rosarian Empire that dominated the orderia continent were in war for many years. In order to gain an advantage in the war, the Arcadia Empire raised troops to attack the corridors between the two continents, occupying an important geographical location. The game was set as the Dalmaska Kingdom, a small country with a hot climate. In order to resist the invasion of the empire, Princess A, the heir to the orthodox throne of the kingdom participated in the People's Liberation Army against the empire, and launched a harsh battle to liberate the motherland. During the battle, Princess A, met a young vaan, and the story began with the two.
Yao Ming worked hard for a while, but the protagonist Vaan still died, which made him extremely regretful and complained: "Look, look, it's all your reasons, otherwise I will definitely pass the test!"
Chamberlain smiled and said, "I will compensate you, Yao, I will go to the penalty area to attack during the Olympics. Just keep your energy on the offensive end, how about it?"
When Yao Ming heard this, he immediately threw the psp behind his head. He became excited and rubbed his hands and said excitedly: "I'm here to support you today, grandma, Lao Zhang, it's great to have you join. Our inside player is the world's top player at this year's Olympics."
The inside line of the Chinese men's basketball team is indeed the world's top. Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi joined forces, and the inside line's attack firepower is absolutely fine. Chamberlain appeared again, and the attack power has been improved by another level, while the defense has been directly improved by one street.
No one knows the horror of Chamberlain's defense better than Yao Ming. He is also the world's top center, and he feels it particularly deeply about it.
What excited Yao Ming the most was that Chamberlain's physical fitness was too strong. After he came on the court, he would never drag down the team's speed on the offensive end. The three-in-one tactics can be carried out as usual, because Chamberlain's speed could not keep up even with the small forwards in the domestic field.
Cao Hong hosted the job fair on the rostrum with great enthusiasm, and then Chamberlain and Yao Ming appeared one after another. When he said the news that "Chamberlain will give up his American nationality and become a member of the Chinese men's basketball team" was in full swing!
"Why did Mr. Chamberlain give up his American citizenship? How do you feel about China?"
"I am a authentic Chinese. The United States is very good, but he is not my hometown. The golden nest is not as good as my own doghouse. It feels good to be able to go home."
"How will Chamberlain and Yao Ming coexist on the court?"
"This is something the head coach has to consider. My task is to train hard and then go on the court, and try my best to help my team win."
“Did you choose to become a Chinese national for business purposes?”
"Of course not. I am already very rich now. This money is enough for me to spend my whole life. What I have to do now is to tell the world with my teammates that yellow people can play basketball as much as possible!"
Hundreds of reporters who attended the press conference asked questions in a verbal manner, and the scene seemed to be setting off firecrackers, which was a mess. Cao Hong came out to host the scene many times, but it was useless, and Yao Ming was also involved. However, because Chamberlain wanted to join the Chinese men's basketball team, he was in a good mood and responded to his requests and tried his best to cooperate with these reporters.
Five minutes later, an energetic old man appeared at the press conference with a smile. When he saw this person, Chamberlain didn't care, but Yao Ming stood up suddenly. This person was the second-in-commander of Chinese politics and the current Prime Minister!
The Beijing Olympics is about to be held. The Chinese Prime Minister visited countries around the world. This period happened to be visiting the United States. It is precisely for this reason that the news that Chamberlain joined the Chinese men's basketball team was released today. In fact, a press conference could be held when this decision was made. However, Cao Hong received the news at the time that he said that a big shot would attend the press conference in person.
When the Prime Minister arrived in the United States, Chamberlain and Cao Hong knew the result, but the former was very numb to politics. He just wanted to play well, and others helped him manage the others, such as Li Qun and Winnie.
The appearance of the Prime Minister pushed the press conference to a new peak. Chamberlain felt relaxed. After he shook hands with the leader, he was no longer the focus. All reporters turned their attention and questions to the Prime Minister. However, this kind of scene was just a small question for him, and the answers were all clear.
"...I am sincerely happy for Mr. Chamberlain's patriotic actions on behalf of our country and our nation. The impact of this incident on us is not limited to the sports world. Of course, this has the greatest impact on our sports world. It is conceivable that after we have Mr. Chamberlain, we will definitely achieve better results in basketball in the international arena..."
Far from the other side of the ocean, CCTV Sports Channel broadcast the press conference live. When he saw Chamberlain taking his Chinese nationality passport and showing his No. 5 jersey in the national team - Yao Ming did the job of his good friend Liu Wei, Liu Wei was willing to give up his No. 5 jersey in the national team to Chamberlain.
Seeing this scene, Chinese fans rioted. They finally saw the hope of the rise of the Chinese men's basketball team. Chamberlain + Yao Ming, China's penalty area is unbreakable!
In Baidu Tie Bar, the number of registered people in Chamberlain's bar has doubled. A large number of Zhang Hei in major forums have changed to Zhang Mi. Moreover, the discussion about the Chinese No. 1 center has come to an abrupt end. All previous doubts have disappeared. Chamberlain's call for being the Chinese No. 1 center has become the mainstream...
"Did Yao Ming get 30+20? Can Yao Ming average six blocks per game? Can Yao Ming beat Garnett beat O'Neal beat Howard beat Boozer beat O'Kuch beat Nowitzki beat Xiao Si?"
"It's not only the number one center in the Chinese, but also the number one center in the world. As long as there is enough time, there's no problem with the number one center in the NBA history..."
"But I want to ask for the Olympic men's basketball gold medal, there is nothing else to ask for..."
