Chapter 379 Heading to Milwaukee
Beijing North Yard.

Originally, Li Lai didn't want to say goodbye to Gong Luming and the players of the Chinese men's basketball team.

Because saying goodbye has always been a hassle.

However, the old Taoist searched for a long time but couldn't find his identity certificate. In the end, he didn't know what kind of torn paper he took out, and the writing on it had long been blurred.

Only the words national identity and Zhang Zhishun can be vaguely seen.

This brought a lot of trouble to Li Lai, because neither the veteran nor the young Taoist could successfully board the plane to New Orleans without identification.

Even visas are not available.

So Li Lai had no choice but to find Gong Luming.

In the yard, Wang Fei and Gong Luming looked at each other, and the latter finally couldn't help but said, "Coach Li Lai, there are a lot of scammers in this Jianghu, you have to be careful."

After finishing speaking, Gong Luming looked warily at the old Taoist and the young Taoist.

After all, even he didn't find someone who could heal Holloway for Li Lai, so how could you do it in just a few days.

The little Taoist snorted softly at Gong Luming, if the master hadn't said a few words before taking him out of the mountain, he would have jumped up and quarreled with him at this moment.

Li Lai raised his hand to signal Gong Luming not to continue talking about this matter, he said: "I have successfully completed my mission during this trip to China."

"It's time for me to go back to New Orleans. The new season is about to start. While the players in the trading market have not been fully signed, I have to deal with the team's affairs."

"Of course, I have to trouble you with one more thing. The two Taoists need your help to go abroad and get visas."

At this time, Gong Luming patted his chest and said: "I didn't keep my promise to complete your second entrustment, and I didn't do well with the first one either."

"So you can rest assured about this matter this time, I will definitely send the two of them out safely."

"It's just that the two of them are Chinese. It's not over if we settle it here, but the United States."

Li Lai nodded, knowing the relationship between Gong Luming and the police station, he believed that this matter is still easy to handle. As for the United States, he indicated that Gong Luming did not need to worry at all, he had already dealt with it.

Wang Fei looked at Li Lai, who had made up his mind to go, and said a little sadly: "Coach Li Lai, you have helped the Chinese men's basketball team create unprecedented brilliance and miracles. Chinese players and fans have not had time to thank you."

"The basketball side also hopes to give you some awards, and is eager to sign a long-term coaching contract with you."

"We won't occupy Coach Li Lai's time in the NBA. We only need Coach Li Lai to report for duty after the NBA season is over."

Li Lai shook his head and said, "On this point, I have communicated with the team leader Gong Luming. No one can be sure about the future, so the renewal of the contract with the Chinese men's basketball team can only be postponed for the time being."

"Of course, the door is never closed, it just needs a pause."

Now that the matter has come to this point, Gong Luming and Wang Fei can't continue persuading him anymore, they just expressed more wishes and thanks to Li Lai.

8 month 20 day.

Beijing North Airport.

When Li Lai and his team arrived at the airport, they suddenly saw countless fans wearing men's basketball uniforms in the terminal hall.

The old Taoist stroked his beard and looked at all this thoughtfully.

The little Taoist didn't know why these people gathered here, and his little eyes were very curious.

Wang Lishen pulled Holloway and looked up at Li Lai with a smile on her face. She knew that he was the hero of the Chinese men's basketball team.

"Coach Li! Thank you!"

I don't know which fan took the lead in shouting, and the whole waiting hall immediately boiled.

A fan suddenly ran up to Li Lai, with Chinese chess on his face, and his eyes were full of excitement.

Li Lai naturally still remembered this fan, and said with a smile: "You don't want to die?"

The fan scratched his head in embarrassment and smiled, then took out a homemade men's basketball jersey with Li Lai's name written on it, as well as the final score of each game of the Chinese men's basketball team he led.

"I know you can understand what I'm saying, and I know you can feel it too."

"Coach Li Lai, you have led the Chinese men's basketball team to create history. This is the dream of all Chinese fans."

"I have always firmly believed that if it were you, it would definitely be possible, it would be possible."

The fans on the scene shouted more and more excitedly at this time.

There was a sudden commotion in the crowd. It turned out that all the teammates of the Chinese men's basketball team came out from a certain passage.

Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Zhang Zhaoxu, Yi Jianlian, Zhou Peng, Zhu Fangyu, Yi Li, Ding Jinhui, Wang Shipeng, Sun Yue, Liu Wei and Guo Ailun.

Yao Ming took out the Olympic medal that belonged to Li Lai, and put it on Li Lai's neck with his own hands.

He hugged Li Lai vigorously and said, "Coach, thank you for everything you have done for the Chinese men's basketball team."

Yi Jianlian smiled shyly and didn't speak, and he didn't take the initiative to greet him at this time, because he knew that the coach had always been his coach.

After the Olympic Games, Guo Ailun learned from his uncle Guo Shiqiang that Coach Li Lai valued him, and there were many actions to train him in the Olympic Games.

At this moment, Guo Ailun walked up to Li Lai seriously and said thank you.

Li Lai, who hadn't seen this scene before, took a deep breath and tried to control his emotions, and finally told Guo Ailun to say.

"If you have the opportunity, you can come to the NBA."

The boarding reminder sounded soon, and Li Lai had to say goodbye to everyone.

He looked at the crowds of people at the Beijing North Airport, and waved vigorously.

"I'll be back."

New Orleans Airport.

Hammond waited at the airport with a smile on his face, but he was curious why Li Lai asked him to prepare two cars.

Even with the little girl Wang Lishen who can't get rid of, there are only two people, and with Hammond, there are three people in total.

Why do you want to prepare two cars?
But after seeing Li Lai and his group appear, Hammond greeted them immediately in surprise, and said with a smile on his face.

"This is Holloway?"

"Boss, where did you find him?"

"By the way, what about the fact that she tricked you into trading the Bucks?"

"Should we take her to the local police station immediately?"

Looking at the unfamiliar Hammond Holloway, she was obviously a little scared. She hung on Li Lai's shoulders tightly, and the little girl even put her arms around Li Lai, trying to put her head in his arms.

Seeing Holloway's appearance, Hammond's face was full of frowning and puzzled emotions.

"she"

Li Lai signaled to get in the car first, and then explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly, but only concealed the matter of the two Taoists.

Hammond couldn't help but looked at Holloway and sighed again and again, and said, "It's a pity, I became a fool. I'm afraid I can't tell what happened back then."

"In this way, wouldn't the Bucks never get it back?"

Li Lai nodded and said, "I have nothing to do about this."

Hammond moved on to something else.

"The big house you asked me to buy in advance has been handed over."

“一共6个卧室8个厕所1个私家影院2个会客厅1间按摩室1间练功房还有一个100平米的泳池和1000平米的花园。”

"It cost a full 1200 million US dollars. I can't see that you are not as frugal as you are on the Forbes list. This time, you will be so extravagant and wasteful."

Li Lai really wanted to say that there was no other way.

After all, there were so many people around him all of a sudden, it was hard to live in whatever way he and Wang Lishen were like in the past.

Hammond then took Li Lai to the newly bought mansion. The location was very close to the New Orleans Arena, which was also Li Lai's request. At the same time, it was located in the manor area, the land was large and the rooms were small, and it was extremely quiet. required.

Holloway looked at the swimming pool and seemed to like it very much. The two Taoists also liked this quiet environment. Wang Lishen didn't care, as long as Li Lai was there, she felt good.

After dealing with these things, Hammond reminded: "The team has piled up a lot of messes, waiting for you to deal with."

"Some big fish in the trading market have also been settled, and the alliance structure has undergone earth-shaking changes."

Li Lai nodded, but said something that Hammond was extremely surprised by.

"There is no rush for this matter. I will return to the team to deal with it in a few days."

Hammond was very surprised that Li Lai, who used to be like a desperate Saburo, who was personally capable and decisive in everything, would choose to let the team's affairs go at this time.

However, he was just unexpectedly curious and didn't ask any more questions.

Li Lai then booked a plane ticket to Milwaukee by himself. He had very urgent things to do.
