Chapter 234 Is it not enough to rule Asian basketball in the next 15 years? (Today's first update)
There was still no suspense in the semi-final against Qatar. The Chinese team had an absolute upper hand from the very beginning, and widened the point difference. By halfway through the fourth quarter, the Chinese team had a lead of more than 30 points.

In the end, the defending champion Chinese team easily defeated this West Asian team 106:71, thus successfully advancing to the championship and runner-up finals.

In the other semi-final, South Korea and Lebanon played very fiercely.

After 40 minutes of fierce fighting, the two sides drew to a draw, and the winner could only be decided through overtime. In the end, the South Korean team was superior and narrowly won 85:83.

As in the original history, the two teams in the final of the 2003 Men's Basketball Asian Championships were the Chinese team and the Korean team.

In Wang Dalin's previous life, the final is definitely still fresh in his memory, because it was not easy for the Chinese team to win that game. This can be seen from the final score - 106:96. The Chinese team seemed to have a good scene, but they only won by 10 points.

I have to say that once the Korean team made a three-point shot, it was really terrifying... Even if the Chinese team had Yao Ming, Bateer, Jiao Jian, Li Nan, Zhu Fangyu and other good players, they were almost caught up by the Korean team's three-point rain in the third quarter.

At the end of the game, the South Korean team had no choice but to implement foul tactics.

However, Fan Bin, a veteran of the Chinese team, hit all 6 free throws in a row. The South Korean team was finally powerless and could only swallow the bitter fruit of failure with hatred.

Since they are both East Asian teams and players of the yellow race, the South Korean team has been imitating the Chinese team's style of play. It was not until the emergence of the "Three Great Mobile Great Walls" in China that there was a huge difference in the style of play between the two teams.

In fact, the South Korean team's style of play is exactly the same as that of the Chinese team before Wang Zhizhi's rise. They are both "small, fast, and smart" and have accurate outside shots.

To tell the truth...the South Korean team's desperate three-pointer is even more accurate than the Chinese team back then!
So in the training on the morning of October 10, Director Jiang focused on rehearsing the perimeter defensive tactics against the South Korean team's three-pointers.

In the final analysis, this tactic is just one point-"let the sudden but not the shot"!
With Yao Ming as Optimus Prime guarding the basket, and Wang Dalin as a world-class defense master, the Chinese team is not afraid of the South Korean team rushing in, because you have no chance to shoot if you rush in.

As for the offense... As far as the physical talents of the South Korean players are concerned, no matter how hard they work, they will definitely not be able to prevent the Chinese team from attacking inside.

Moreover, with Wang Dalin in the Chinese team in this life, the offensive tactics are undoubtedly richer than in the original history, and the offensive ability is stronger, so Director Jiang never worried about offense at all.

On October 2003, 10, on the night of the National Day, the Chinese men's basketball team played against the South Korean men's basketball team in the final of the Asian Championships.

The starting lineup of the Chinese team is center Yao Ming, power forward Wang Dalin, small forward Sun Jun, shooting guard Li Nan, and point guard Fan Bin;
South Korea's starting lineup is center Ha Seung-jin, power forward Kim Joo-sung, small forward Choo Seung-yun, shooting guard Moon Kyung-eun, and point guard Lee Sang-min.

Probably because the timing of the jump was not well controlled, Yao Ming unexpectedly lost in the jump ball, and the South Korean team won the ball for the first attack.

After Lee Sang-min dribbled the ball for halftime, under the cover of Kim Joo-sung, he opened up the gap and forced a three-point shot against Wang Dalin's interference...it actually scored!
The goal was so unbelievable that even Wang Dalin couldn't help being surprised.

He has tried his best to interfere. Even if Ray Allen or Peja Stojakovic, who have the strongest three-point ability in the NBA, shoot this kind of ball, it is estimated that they will have to hit the iron in all likelihood. This Lee Sang-min actually made it!

Lee Sangmin was born in 1972. He is the second oldest player in this South Korean team after Moon Kyung-eun. He is only 183cm tall and weighs only 77kg. No matter how you look at it, he is just an ordinary point guard.

But his three-point shot is really accurate... Well, this refers to the three-point shot according to FIBA ​​rules, which is 55cm closer than the NBA three-point line!

Looking back, Wang Dalin made a straight shot after receiving the ball at the top of the three-point arc. The ball passed through the basket like a precision-guided missile, and the net didn't even move much.

This "ANSWER-BALL" played aggressively, and the audience immediately gave him warm applause and cheers.

In fact, Wang Dalin doesn't feel much about the cheers or boos of the home and away fans, but he knows that the atmosphere of the scene will have a great impact on his teammates, so he will unswervingly play this response.

According to Jiang's pre-match deployment, the Chinese team's first offense should have been passed to Yao Ming to attack at the basket... The South Korean team's starting center Ha Seung-jin looks like a bird, despite his height reaching 221cm, and his weight is much heavier than Yao Ming.

事实上这厮还真在NBA打了两个赛季，只不过总共加起来也只出场了46场比赛，场均上场时间只有6.9分钟，可以得到1.5分1.5篮板0.1助攻0.1抢断0.3盖帽0.6失误1.3犯规……还不如后世中国的周奇！
Anyway, Zhou Qi also sent 19 blocked shots in 14 games in the NBA. He Shengzhen only blocked 46 shots in 13 games, and his average playing time per game is more than Zhou Qi.

The Korean team's second attack was Lee Sang-min again... He played another pick-and-roll with his old buddy Moon Kyung-eun on the outside.

However, as soon as he passed the ball, he suddenly felt bad. Wang Dalin jumped out like lightning, and as soon as he stretched out his long arms, he patted the ball, and then dribbled the ball and rushed forward.

As far as Wang Dalin's current speed is concerned, let alone players like the South Korean team, even Allen Iverson or Tony Parker, who are known for their speed in the NBA, will find it difficult to catch up with him.

Wang Dalin rushed to the three-point line, stepped on the free throw line and leaped high, ending the fast break with a thunderous one-handed dunk.

Originally, the atmosphere in Tianrun Ice Base Gymnasium was already quite warm, but this dunk completely ignited the enthusiasm of the audience. They cheered, screamed, and even started to form a crowd.

Wang Dalin trotted all the way back to his home court, Yao Ming slapped his butt and smiled and said, "Dalin, you can do it, how did you practice this jumping?"

Wang Dalin just smiled at him, but did not answer, because the South Korean team had already dribbled the ball for half the time.

This time, the South Korean team lobbed the ball to the inside. Ha Seung-jin caught the ball and punched Yao Ming with his back. As soon as he turned around and had no time to force him, he was slapped dizzily by Yao Ming's big hat.

As soon as Fan Bin picked up the ball, he immediately made a fast break. Zhang Jinsong on the flank ran fast. Fan Bin made a long pass. After Zhang Jinsong received the ball, the three big strides were a tomahawk-style dunk... "Bang!"

Looking back, the South Korean team didn't believe in Hyun, and gave Ha Seung-jin another ball.

This attack on He Shengzhen fully demonstrated his strong physical strength, and Yao Ming was pushed back again and again by him, but when He Shengzhen half turned around and wanted to hook, he got another big hat from Yao Ming.

Yao Ming's upper body strength is indeed inferior to He Shengzhen's, but his lower limbs are very thick, and the stability of his lower body is quite good.Although he was pushed back again and again before, he didn't actually lose his center of gravity, so he was still able to take off in time to block the shot at the moment He Shengzhen shot.

Wang Dalin grabbed the second spot, and a long pass was given to Zhang Jinsong, who was about to play. "Desperate Saburo" rushed into the inside line and hit another dunk with both hands.

"Clang clang..."

"Clang clang..."

"Clang clang..."

Throughout the first quarter, the Chinese team's dunks sounded like a torrential river, and the South Korean team's inside attack was unfavorable. Every time, the Chinese team turned into a fast break, and the score between the two sides quickly opened to double digits.

In the second quarter, the South Korean team adjusted their style of play, put Ha Seung-jin on the bench, and resumed their usual "small, fast, and smart" style of play.

Obviously, their adjustment had a very good effect. Although it was still difficult to catch up with the score, at least their offense was obviously much smoother than in the first quarter.

At the end of the first half, the battle between the two sides became 59:44, and the Chinese team led by 15 points.

In the third quarter, the situation changed suddenly. Seeing that they could not reverse the situation, the South Korean team simply broke the pot and began to bet on the touch from beyond the three-point line. As a result, this bet really made them gamble!
In this quarter, the South Korean team made 14 of 8 three-pointers and scored 24 points just from three-pointers.

Especially Moon Kyung-eun, Lee Sang-min, and Qiu Seung-yun. They frequently shot from the outside, and even made strong shots against the defense of Chinese players several times, but they still made it.

The main reason is that Director Jiang relaxed his vigilance during this period and replaced Guo Shiqiang as a backup point guard according to the normal rotation. As a result, he was pressed by the South Korean team and made a series of mistakes.

The South Korean team doesn't necessarily rush inside when they are on a fast break... Open three-pointers are their forte.

Seeing that the point difference was overtaken to 6 points in a blink of an eye, Director Jiang quickly called a timeout and replaced the starting point guard Fan Bin, and once again showed his two strongest swords - Yao Ming and Wang Dalin!
Immediately after Wang Dalin came on the court, he used a three-pointer to stabilize the army's morale, and then made two consecutive breakthroughs to score Yao Ming's two assists.

The point difference between the two sides returned to double digits again, and the South Korean team wanted to bet on three points, but this time their hand feeling was obviously powerless.

In this way, the Chinese team fought more and more bravely in the fourth quarter, and they finally had the last laugh amidst the neat singing of "Five-Star Red Flag Fluttering in the Wind" by the audience.

In the end, the Chinese team defeated the South Korean team 117:96 and successfully won the championship of this men's basketball Asian Championship.

At the award ceremony after the game, Mr. Cheng Wanqi, then chairman of the Basketball Federation, personally presented the championship trophy and gold medal to the players of the Chinese team.

Standing on the highest podium, he heard the majestic and impassioned "March of the Volunteers" and watched the five-star red flag rise slowly, Wang Dalin was extremely proud and proud.

This is the second time he has won the Asian Championships for the Chinese men's basketball team. It is not known how many times in the future, but he is still very excited, and even his eyes are wet.

At the press conference after the game, Wang Dalin said a lot of words of thanks to the reporters. This kind of official language obviously couldn't satisfy the appetite of the reporters, so they immediately brought the topic to Wang Dalin himself.

They all wanted to know who was that tall beauty who dated Wang Dalin that night a week ago?

During this period of time, the major media have been hyping up this matter, but now is not the era of Internet information explosion in later generations, so several days have passed, and they still failed to dig out Zhang Zilin.

But Wang Dalin knew...if these reporters were allowed to dig deeper, Zhang Zilin would be exposed by them sooner or later, so he simply told the truth.

There is nothing wrong with doing this, anyway, Zhang Zilin is a student of the acting department of Beijing Film Academy, so it is not a bad thing to have a certain degree of exposure.

For example, Zhang Ziyi became famous when she starred in Zhang Yimou's masterpiece "My Father and Mother" when she was a freshman. Later, when she was a senior, her classmates were still worrying about her graduation thesis. She has become a famous "international chapter" because of her role in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Wang Dalin thought very clearly, instead of letting these reporters rack their brains to investigate, it would be better to take Zhang Zilin to the front desk voluntarily.

Since Zhang Zilin chose the path of acting in this life, she is completely different from her in the original history. There is no need to hide it...Anyway, she wants to be an actor, and the aura of "Wang Dalin's girlfriend" on her body is absolutely beneficial and harmless to her.

After the last false report, Wang Dalin was also a little bit afraid. What if some unscrupulous reporter didn't dig out Zhang Zilin's serious information, but instead made up his own brain and wrote something random, it would be troublesome.

In the previous life, Wang Dalin saw this kind of article more than once on the Internet. For example, the famous "Song Dazui" made up the outrageous news that Liu Yifei was a transgender person, and he was really a little crazy to believe it!

It's not that Wang Dalin can't deal with this kind of behavior, but it's better to deal with it after it has already happened than to prevent it directly. Wouldn't it be better to have no such thing at all?
With his thunderous tactics against the unscrupulous media this time, if someone wants to discredit Zhang Zilin in the future, he must think a little bit beforehand, right?

After the Asian Championships, all members of the Chinese men's basketball team who successfully won the gold naturally became the main contributors, and the celebration banquet must be indispensable.

So, at the celebration banquet on the night of the National Day, everyone saw Bateer's astonishing drinking capacity again... This guy really belongs to the type of "you can do whatever you want", and he persisted until the end of the drinking party without seeing him pass out.

Wang Dalin just drank two or three bottles of beer and escaped on the pretext that he was not feeling well... It wasn't that his wine quality was poor, it was because he had important matters to deal with the next morning.

This time he returned to China to participate in the Asian Championships. Although he experienced some twists and turns in the final, he finally won the championship smoothly. Wang Dalin is also very satisfied with the result.

However, what the team leader Ji Zhixin said earlier made Wang Dalin feel sad-"Now that we have Dayao and Dalin, the Chinese men's basketball team can still dominate Asia for at least ten years! If they maintain a good state, it is not impossible for them to dominate for 15 years!"

Ji Zhixin's words are very reasonable. After all, although Yao Ming retired in the original history, the Chinese men's basketball team can still dominate Asia until 2014, but the advantage has become smaller and smaller.

Later, Asian countries began to naturalize a large number of overseas players. Among them, the Japanese team even had a high-ranking rookie in the NBA like Rui Hachimura. This gentleman has already played the absolute main force in the Wizards.

Coupled with the main rotation players in the NBA like Yuta Watanabe and two marginal players in the NBA, the hard power of the Japanese team has undoubtedly jumped to No. [-] in Asia. The Chinese men's basketball team relies on Zhou Qi, Guo Ailun and others are not the opponents of the Japanese team at all.

So... How is it enough to dominate Asia for 15 years?
Wang Dalin will not let the Chinese men's basketball team sink, he wants to do something for Chinese basketball.

In fact, after Yao Ming retired, he has been committed to optimizing the competitive environment of Chinese basketball, and he has attached great importance to youth training. However, even if he later became the chairman of the Basketball Association, the construction of echelons of all age groups has not shown any effect.

In the past, China's U16, U19, U21 and other competitions were pretty good, but after 2020, the situation has become extremely bad, and the performance of the Chinese youth teams at all levels in the world is getting worse and worse.

Of course, the main reason for the good performance in the past is that the local sports schools always let some good seedlings "change their age", such as Yi Jianlian back then.

If you let a 20-year-old top player play the U16 game, it is like letting an NCAA All-Star play a high school game. It must be a god who blocks and kills Buddha to block and kill Buddha?

For example, Michael Jordan, his average data in college was not very impressive, but how was he in his rookie season in the NBA?

场均28.2分6.5篮板5.9助攻2.4抢断0.8盖帽……这还是在上世纪80年代打出来的数据。

In that era full of muscle collisions, Jordan was able to hit such stats in his rookie season. One can imagine how fierce the "old hooligan" is!

If you throw that Jordan back to the NCAA... God knows how many records against the heavens will be trampled under his feet, and how many NCAA's favorites will be beaten to a mental breakdown by him?

On October 10, Wang Dalin flew back to Beijing early in the morning and met with Schwartz directly.

This time he came to set up a domestic economic team.

In fact, as early as the beginning of this year's offseason, he had already discussed with Schwartz... In addition to being in the United States, there must also be a team of agents in China to serve him.

The number of this agent team does not need to be too many, three or five people are enough. Of course, they belong to Schwartz's "EXCEL Sports Management Company".

So Schwartz was busy with this matter in Shanghai before, and now the team has been successfully formed, and Wang Dalin came to Beijing this time mainly to meet them.

Of course, Wang Dalin was definitely more than simply meeting them, but had specific matters to arrange for them to do.

For the privacy of this meeting, Schwartz specially rented a small meeting room in the hotel where he stayed. When Wang Dalin arrived, everyone stood up and applauded.

"Don't do this kind of nonsense, okay?" Wang Dalin saw that they acted as if they were welcoming the leaders to enter the venue, and they really deserved to be good employees recruited in China. "Sit down, Jeff, can you introduce everyone to me first?"

Schwartz motioned for everyone to sit down, smiled and said to Wang Dalin, "Okay, let me introduce our new members to you first!"

The Chinese agent team present consisted of four people, two men and two women, named Liu Tao, Huang Daguo, Xu Yajun and Zhu Qian (qian).

Liu Tao is 29 years old this year, tall and thin, with a frail appearance.

He graduated from Southwest University of Political Science and Law, and majored in economics and law during his postgraduate period, which can be said to be a perfect match for his major.

Huang Daguo is older. He is 37 years old this year. Before that, he worked as a lawyer in a law firm in Beijing. He is usually good at litigation related to economic disputes, and he is also good at it.

Xu Yajun looks quite sweet, only about 26 or 7 years old from the outside, of course, the actual age is likely to be much older.

She was also a lawyer before, but she passed the CPA exam two years ago, so she can be regarded as a beautiful schoolmaster.

Zhu Xi is a petite and cute girl who looks like a kindergarten teacher from the outside, but in fact she is a top student who graduated from the Economics Department of Tsinghua University.

Wang Dalin briefly talked with everyone, and then immediately turned to the topic.

He will take out 3000 million soft sister coins as the initial start-up capital, and his own Chinese agent team will set up a foundation. This foundation will focus on searching for basketball seedlings from all over China, and provide them with financial assistance and professional training.

To this end, Wang Dalin will form a team of trainers after returning to the United States. They will come to China around November this year and establish a youth basketball training camp exclusively for Wang Dalin.

In fact, Wang Dalin talked about this with his teammates during the Asian Championships. They all said that after the establishment of the foundation, they would take the lead in donating money, and they would go to the training camp to provide professional guidance to the young players when they had free time.

Of course, Wang Dalin will also come to the training camp every year when he is free during the offseason... As the honorary principal, he can't stay out of it, and he must start a small training session for some outstanding youngsters.

After Wang Dalin finished speaking, the four outstanding young people were very excited.

Yes... To be able to contribute my modest contribution to the future of Chinese basketball is undoubtedly a lofty goal.

However, Wang Dalin also knew that the process would be extremely difficult, so the remuneration he offered to everyone present was also very high, at least double their original income.

His goal is very simple, that is to allow Chinese basketball to continue to develop in a healthier way, instead of Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi retiring, who are not in the game, and even Yi Jianlian, who is in his thirties, is still struggling to support the last bit of face of the Chinese men's basketball team.

For this reason, he can invest a lot of money, and even invest more every year in the future, just to find a few more good seedlings for Chinese basketball.

Of course, he who came from later generations knew how bad the situation of the Chinese men's basketball team was at that time, and even among the young players, there was hardly a single one who could take the lead.

He really didn't believe it... With a population of more than one billion in China, is it true that once Yao Ming retires, he will no longer be able to find a few basketball geniuses?

It's not that there are no talented people, but that they haven't been able to get attention since they were young, and they lack scientific training, and it's too late to practice when they grow up.

If these people can get help from an early age, they can eat more nutritiously, and they can get the guidance of professional trainers. With China's huge population base and strong basketball base, there may not be a second Yao Ming or a second Yi Jianlian.

If Wang Dalin can dig out the second Yao Ming, the Chinese team will continue to rule the roost in Asia, and the Japanese team is definitely not our opponent.

Moreover, it is not Wang Dalin's ultimate dream to dominate Asia. A mere Asian championship is definitely not enough to inspire the Chinese people. He has already set his sights on the Athens Olympic Games in a year's time...
