------------*Your check-in and reply are my biggest motivation for updating

The impact of the Wenchuan earthquake was extremely huge. As time passed, the trauma it brought to China began to gradually show. On May 12, the entire Chinese nation was crying. The damage caused to China by the earthquake was extremely huge. This was not only reflected in property, but also in life and image.

2008 was an extremely important year for the Chinese nation. This nation took on the burden of holding the Olympics for the first time in history. The whole world's attention was on Beijing. The Olympics would be about to open in just three months. However, this happened at this time. The Chinese nation could no longer focus all its energy on the Olympics.

However, the disaster brought pain to the Chinese nation and also condensed the hearts of Chinese people around the world. In the face of this earthquake, the Chinese showed the style of a great country and countless positive news were paid attention to the world at this moment.

Since the earthquake, Chamberlain and Li Qun have been paying close attention to the news. For the first time, he missed the team's training match, contacted Kingsoft's Chinese team on the 1st and did his best. The news released by important media from various countries is their focus:

"New York Times": The Chinese government responded quickly at critical moments. Premier Wen's image of high concern to the people in the disaster area and his distinctive posture of visiting the front line appeared on TV screens again and again, which was in sharp contrast to the government's slow performance after disasters in some other countries. The efforts of the Chinese leaders proved that the Chinese government can respond quickly at critical moments.

Singapore Lianhe Zaobao: "Chinese-style Prime Minister" is difficult to replicate. This Sichuan earthquake, the Chinese government showed a high level of self-confidence. The Chinese nation used iron-like facts to prove to the world that they are still one of the best races in the world, with a culture of five thousand years, immortality!

The London Daily in the UK: Rumors end with the truth, and the TV station broadcasts the "original] unnamed" news.

Espn commented: "It's easy to shake the mountain, it's hard to shake the people of Sichuan."

AP: This rapid mobilization reflects that the Chinese leadership has placed disaster relief in a prominent position and shows the world that they will be well prepared for any emergencies during the Olympics.

CNN: The wave of unity and patriotism swept across China. During this earthquake, the Chinese people showed deep sympathy. They are a united nation, closely united.

Russian News Agency: China, hold on! The Wenchuan earthquake shocked half of Asia and shocked the whole world. China has experienced too many hardships, but it has never fallen in hardships. Facing disasters, China has shown tenacity and tenacity, cherished life, and China has won the respect and praise of the whole world.

Spanish Le Monde: "A Indestructible Nation" - It is these volunteers, soldiers and rescuers' indomitable spirit that saved this country, which has suffered countless foreign invasions and various disasters, time and time again.

"Nikkei Shimbun": After the silence was over in Tiananmen Square, people lined up to shout slogans such as "Come on China!", showing the rise of patriotism.

Canadian CBC TV: The response speed and personnel, equipment and material delivery capabilities of the Chinese army have left a deep impression.

Portugal Express: The earthquake tests the capabilities of China's leadership.

German Le Monde: China's "largest military operation in history" is only for disaster relief

cnn: After three minutes of silence in China, a report titled "Emotions flow in the silence of China" was published. The article said that in Chengdu, the capital city of Sichuan Province, the emotions of thousands of people were vented during the mourning activities. After the 180-second mourning activities, they shouted slogans to support the disaster area. The reporter at the scene said: "At the moment of silence, everyone's hands were tightly held together, and some people were crying... They were incredible and shocked by the deaths of so many people."

"Australian": The Chinese are opening their minds, donating generously, and donating blood enthusiastically.

The American Christian Science Monitor: China seems to be well prepared for this kind of disaster relief operation, and they are very good at formulating disaster relief plans quickly.

The Los Angeles Times: "The increasingly humane government strives to provide spiritual comfort and national support to the people."

Reuters: Reports sent back from Pingtong Town, Sichuan said that from the earthquake-resistant tents in cities in Sichuan Province to the Tiananmen Square in Beijing, the alarm was wailing, and hundreds of millions of Chinese people stood still for three minutes to observe silence for tens of thousands of compatriots who died in the Sichuan earthquake.

San Francisco is the most concentrated area for Chinese Americans. This city even has an exclusive name because of the Chinese name, called "San Francisco". Chamberlain is now the pride of Chinese in San Francisco, so at the first moment after the local earthquake disaster broke out, many Chinese people turned their attention to him.

At midnight, Chamberlain helped the Warriors to hold an urgent press conference, where he promised: "I will go to Chengdu this summer, I have to go there to participate in basketball without boundaries, I will definitely go!"

Chamberlain immediately donated one million US dollars to the education under the post-disaster reconstruction of Wenchuan. He now has a lot of contracts, but in fact he doesn’t have much money. Most advertising contracts have not been fulfilled yet. At this time, one million US dollars is the highest amount of cash he can use.

But for a super sports star who is well-known around the world, the one-million-dollar donation obviously does not match his value. So the next day, the executive president of "Champion" Sony Vaccaro announced that the brand donated $5 million to Wenchuan as Chamberlain.

Vaccaro's attitude towards money was almost stingy. It was already shocking Chamberlain to be incredible that he could give out five million. However, unlike the latter who simply thought about Wenchuan, Vaccaro saw business opportunities from this disaster, about business opportunities to open up the Chinese market.

On May 13, Vaccaro and Chamberlain held another press conference. At the meeting, he first promised to donate 5 million US dollars to Wenchuan, which will be used for post-disaster orphan raising, single-parent family property subsidies, medical conditions construction, etc. In addition, he announced that every product under the Champion brand will be sold in mainland China - whether it is sneakers or sportswear, the company will withdraw 5 to 20 US dollars from it to donate.

Chamberlain has participated in several prayer meetings and donation meetings organized by Chinese in San Francisco in the past two days. He was so busy that he did not fly to San Antonio until he was about to play the fifth game with the Mala team on May 15.

When he arrived in San Antonio, Chamberlain could finally take a break. Old Nelson could not blame him because Chamberlain is Chinese now, and China has encountered such a terrible disaster. For Chamberlain, disaster resistance is more important than the playoffs.

Old Nelson has a deep understanding of China's national conditions and culture. I have to thank him for the ban on Wang Zhizhi by the Chinese men's basketball team. Originally, after Old Nelson chose Wang Zhizhi, he planned to give Nowitzki a substitute with the same style. When Nowitzki was not present, he thought that Wang Zhizhi, who had the same style, but had a slightly poor ability, could take this responsibility. Unfortunately, all his plans collapsed due to political reasons, which made him unable to help but sigh when he recalled it.

Old Nelson doesn't want to fall twice in the same place. His emphasis on Chamberlain is not something that Wang Zhizhi can compare. He thinks that Wang Zhizhi was just late to serve the country and was banned by China. Now Chamberlain is facing much more severe situation than that, because this time it is a century-old disaster that the whole country is paying attention to!

After Chamberlain arrived in San Antonio, Old Nelson arranged for him to go to the hotel to have a good sleep. Chamberlain is in a bad condition now. He only rested less than ten hours in the past forty-eight hours. This is a disaster for the playoff players!

Li Qun also worked hard. When the two of them arrived at the hotel and found the room, they threw themselves on the big bed, and soon they fell into a confused state.

For the first time, Chamberlain did not touch his feet while hugging Li Qun in the bed. Both of them were so tired and exhausted!

When he was about to fall asleep, Li Qun suddenly heard Chamberlain calling her: "Qun, are you asleep?"

Li Qun opened his eyes in a daze and asked softly: "What's wrong?"

Chamberlain muttered, "Group, do you feel that life is too short..."

After hearing this, Li Qun's heart trembled as he looked at Chamberlain's confused expression. She felt that Chamberlain was like a little beast that had just experienced the storm, full of fear and nothing to rely on. She was maternal in her heart, so she reached out to wrap her arms around Chamberlain's head and comforted: "It's okay, I will always be by your side forever."

Chamberlain broke free from Li Qun's arms and said helplessly: "But the quilt is too short, I can't even cover my feet. Even if you are by my side, you can't keep warm."

After Chamberlain said this, Li Qun's pity in his heart suddenly disappeared. Her eyebrows slowly stood up and asked slowly: "Say the sentence 'This life is too short' in English."

Chamberlain didn't realize the change in the atmosphere, so he said inexplicably: "This quilt is too short, I can't cover my feet." After that, he pushed Li Qun and said, "You call the service desk to change the quilt. I'm too tired and don't even want to move my fingers..."

"Get out, it's cold, go to bed!" The tenderness and sweetness in Li Qun's heart disappeared without a trace, leaving only the same anger as if he had been fooled.

Chamberlain shrank his shoulders and shrank honestly into a ball and started to sleep. He didn't understand why Li Qun suddenly got angry? The woman was so strange. Did Li Qun come to his aunt today? He remembered that the date was wrong.

After being inexplicably angry, Li Qun helped Chamberlain ask for a new bedding so that Chamberlain could finally fall asleep comfortably.

After a good night's sleep, Chamberlain returned to his fierce state of being fierce again. It was already seven o'clock in the evening, and it only took another half an hour before the fifth battle was about to begin.
