On May 1st, the plane taken by Gan Guoyang arrived at the airport. As soon as he got off the plane, Gan Guoyang felt a friendly and familiar smell. This is his second hometown, San Francisco.

In the past, Gan Guoyang took a plane from Shanghai to San Francisco International Airport with Gan Youwei, and then took an Indian San taxi to San Francisco Chinatown and joined his cousin's family. It has been eight years since today. Gan Guoyang has gone from an unknown Chinese boy who came to the United States across the ocean to become a superstar in the American basketball world. The Chinese sports hero is like a different life when he thinks of it.

"Damn it, I've experienced it all over time, and I'm still sighing that time flies here..." Thinking of his identity, Gan Guoyang also found it funny.

When they arrived at the airport exit, Gan Guoyang was frightened by the formation in the hall. A large number of fans were crowded in the hall. Many people were wearing Portland Trail Blazers uniforms, and it seemed that they were all here to welcome Gan Guoyang.

"Wow, it seems that we were also playing at home in the third game." Drexler couldn't help but whistle and said when he saw this scene.

The number of Chinese people in San Francisco is very amazing. In fact, as early as the 1984 draft, the Warriors did not have a first-round draft pick, but they also tried their best to pay some money to get the second pick from the Portlanders, because everyone knows that the Houstonians will definitely win the pride of Houston Olajuwon, and the San Francisco also wants children who come out of San Francisco to play in Oakland.

But the Portlanders are not stupid. No matter what price the Warriors offer, the Portland management insists on the second pick and will not relax. Moreover, the draft picks of the Warriors' two second-round picks are too terrible, and the Warriors' player Trail Blazers are also uninterested.

In this way, the Chinese superstar has returned to San Francisco in the playoffs, but in this way, it is impossible to stop the love of Chinese fans in San Francisco for Gan Guoyang. There are at least 400 fans who arrived at the airport to pick them up today, and some may still be on the way. Many of them have even put up banners with Chinese slogans written on them to support Gan Guoyang.

To this end, the San Francisco police also sent additional police forces to the scene to maintain order and prevent accidents, and also set up a cordon next to the passage.

Gan Guoyang glanced at the crowd and waved to them with a smile. Gan Guoyang quickly found the most eye-catching one among the bunch of banners, which was a banner with red letters on the blue background. With such an ugly color scheme, Gan Guoyang knew who made it at a glance, not to mention that the four big words "Gan Family Restaurant" were written on it.

"Big Cousin! Big Cousin! I'm here, Big Cousin!" Gan Guoyang heard the voice first, and then saw a fat man jumping up and down there. Because he was a little far from Gan Guoyang, he was trying hard to wave to Gan Guoyang.

Gan Guoyang knew that it was Gan Guohui who came. Of course, every time this guy had the opportunity to greet him, he would never forget to bring his broken advertising banner. This time, he might be able to take a news picture by the reporter again.

But now Gan Guoyang has to take the team bus to the hotel. After signing several names for enthusiastic fans around him, Gan Guoyang winked at Gan Guohui who couldn't even squeeze in from afar. The fat man understood inside. He hurriedly packed up his broken banner and hired him to labor fees for the two Indians who were hired to pull the banner. Then he rushed out of the airport with the banner and drove out of the airport to the parking lot.

Then, the fat man drove straight to the hotel where the Trail Blazers were staying, waiting for the arrival of Gan Guoyang in the hall.

Gan Guohui just graduated from the University of Southern California last year. Because he has a powerful mother, he was able to continue his studies in the school and prepare to work in the legal industry after he came out. It is very difficult for Chinese people in the United States to engage in legal work.

Soon, when Gan Guoyang arrived at the hotel, Gan Guohui had already had time to wait for him there. Without saying a word, Gan Guohui rushed up and gave Gan Guoyang a big hug. The security personnel on the side thought they were almost out of the way, so they almost stepped forward to knock Gan Guohui down. Fortunately, Gan Guoyang stopped him in time.

"Big cousin... you haven't signed me yet..." The two of them just hugged each other. The first sentence Gan Guohui said almost made Gan Guoyang angry. He had already taken out a small notebook from his pocket and handed it to Gan Guoyang for him to sign.

Gan Guohui has been preserved for eight years. The first page of this notebook is the name that Gan Guoyang signed on it. At that time, Gan Guoyang was still in high school. Later, Gan Guohui took advantage of Gan Guoyang's convenience to have the opportunity to come into contact with various stars. Without exception, Gan Guohui would have shamelessly asked them to sign on it. Now that the notebook has been used up, Gan Guohui thought of gathering into an invincible star signature book, which will become a collection of famous products in the sports world and be auctioned at a high price at the auction. At that time, he will be worry-free for the rest of his life.

"Fatty, you haven't thrown away this book yet. I really want to use it for auction and sell it." After so many years, Gan Guoyang was still speechless about this cousin.

"This is my life guarantee for the rest of my life! My mother wants me to be a lawyer, but I am not that material. Being a lawyer in a Chinese American is not much easier than entering the NBA. I might as well be a chef with my dad! Besides, look at me promoting my Ganjia restaurant every day. At that time, I will inherit the restaurant and become the chef. What about you, inherit your dad's invincible cooking skills, and open a hotel in San Francisco with me and start a chain! Making money is definitely no less than playing basketball!"

Gan Guoyang is now at the peak of his career. He has just been on the road to winning the championship this season. As a result, the biggest obstacle came to San Francisco was that his cousin tempted him to open a hotel. Gan Guoyang knew that his cousin was actually limited in his interest in basketball, and what he loved more was making money and computers.

"Okay, I'll go up first, and the team will have a preparation meeting. I'll go to the Ganjia Restaurant to have dinner in the evening and ask my dad to cook less salt."

"Oh, OK."

In the evening, Gan Guoyang took Gan Guohui's car back to Chinatown and returned to the Gan family restaurant he was familiar with. After eight years, the decoration here has not changed much. The old man Gan Bingguang's philosophy has always been relatively conservative. He was unwilling to accept Gan Guoyang's investment in opening a branch, but he kept the old store honestly and prepared the dishes in the old store, so the decoration here is still the same.

Although Gan Guoyang is likely to stay in Jinzhou for only two days, if they defeat the Warriors tomorrow, they can let the Warriors take a vacation directly, Gan Youwei prepared a large table of good dishes for his son.

Now Gan Youwei has become accustomed to staying in San Francisco. His previous thought of going to Portland with his son is gradually gone. Anyway, Gan Guoyang can come back every summer, and he will also come to San Francisco to play games during the season, so he will not always see his son.

The whole family had a hot meal at the Gan Family Restaurant, and the original room in Gan Guoyang was kept for him. Everything inside was still the same as before, and it was neatly tidy and clean.

Gan Guoyang is experiencing the warmth of home here and wishes he could stay in San Francisco for a few more days, but Gan Guoyang doesn't want to stay here because he wants to end the series earlier and give the Warriors a holiday.

………………………………………

On May 2, the Warriors ushered in a desperate battle. If they were behind 0:2, they lost one more game and were swept out. When they returned to their home court, they had to avoid sweeping, so that they could fight another game at home, and at least they could sell more tickets to the game.

But before the game started, the Warriors were hit because the players found that the fans who supported the Trail Blazers on the spot were no fewer than those on the Warriors. A large number of fans wearing the Trail Blazers No. 11 jerseys were distributed everywhere in the audience. If they weren't wearing white jerseys and the Warriors' team logo was printed on the floor, the Warriors players would have thought they were still playing away.

This undoubtedly caused harm to the Warriors players. They should have come to the court with the mentality of dying when they don’t win, and then won a game with the crazy cheering of fans, but there are many fans who cheered the Trail Blazers on the spot.

The Warriors then suffered a bigger blow. Just three minutes into the game, their core player Chris Mullin fell in a defense, suspected of straining his thigh muscles. After the team doctor came up to check, Mullin had to limp away from the field, and then he never returned to the court.

The Warriors, who suffered a double blow, completely collapsed. They only persisted in one quarter and could barely compete with the Trail Blazers in the first quarter. From the second quarter, they could no longer resist the Trail Blazers' striker and were pushed off the cliff.
