For the national basketball teams of various countries, it is already a great thing to be able to naturalize an nba substitute player with his own blood, let alone a star upstart like Stephen, but the Chinese Basketball Association On the other side, they are discussing whether it is necessary to send personnel to carry out naturalization operations.

Some of them have revealed their words before, but according to the news sent back, Stephen has no interest in it. As for the official contact, unless they get approval from Stephen, otherwise, the Basketball Association, which cares about face more than anything else, will definitely not Will send someone.

The previous actions were just individual actions of some people. All of them did not receive a good response. They also felt that the person who came forward was not qualified enough to represent the country. This may be the reason why the other party did not respond. Now a formal meeting is held , the discussion is whether to naturalize Stephen, and how to do it if naturalized.

As the only director of the basketball league office of the basketball association who has had contact with Stephen, Zhang Kaiming was specially invited to participate in this meeting that only the vice chairman can attend. The main association is worried by the deputy director of the General Administration of Sports. The person in charge of daily work is called the full-time vice chairman, and he is also the director of the basketball management center, while the other vice chairman is the deputy director.

According to the requirements of international organizations, the Basketball Association should be a non-governmental organization, but here in China, any non-governmental organization has an official background, let alone the organization responsible for the organization and promotion of national basketball games, Director of the Basketball Management Center It is at the main hall level, and Li Zhengwu is currently in charge. Compared with his predecessor or the head of other sports events, Li Zhengwu is a little more open-minded, and the naturalization of Stephen was his earliest joke.

After watching the confrontation between the Rockets and the Spurs, he joked for a while: "If our national team can recruit this Stephen, we won't have to worry about no one on the front line." The leader may have just joked for a while, but the following If you can recruit Stephen, it will not only please the leader, but also create a strong political achievement for yourself, so why not do it.

So someone asked Stephen through a few lines to see if he had this idea, and Stephen naturally refused. Take advantage of the summer to improve yourself, rest and play some national team games, and there is no bonus and no salary.

Regardless of whether it was tentative, no one took Stephen's response seriously. If a big-name player like Stephen cried and asked to join the Chinese national basketball team after a little trial, they would still doubt whether Stephen was an opponent. As for the spies sent over, it is normal for Stephen to respond like this,

This is because Stephen's nationality is the United States, and he is playing in the highest level of basketball league. He is an American, so he will definitely not come to draw your Chinese nationality. Playing in the NBA, famous and profitable, will not try to join Your national team adds points to yourself.

This matter has come to an end at this point, and the test has been fruitless. If Li Zhengwu does not mention this matter again, then no one will dare to speak about it again, because in various sports events in China, such This kind of naturalization of foreign players has never happened. It has always been based on self-cultivated athletes. If foreign athletes are used, whose performance is counted, does this mean that the self-cultivated sports are not good enough.

Of course, this is also related to the consistent traditional thinking. I have always believed in the principle that "man will conquer nature". If you can't win, it means that your efforts are not enough. Like the spirit of the women's volleyball team in the past, the national football heroes have always raised the efforts of the athletes themselves to a very high level, but ignored the talents of the athletes themselves.

Under such circumstances, no one dares to risk the displeasure of the world and propose to naturalize Stephen, unless the leader comes forward. On the night when Stephen scored 51 points, it was the morning for China, and Director Li Zhengwu happened to be fine. , just enjoyed the game, and after seeing Stephen's incomparably brave performance, this idea entered his mind again like a devil.

If Stephen was recruited to create a history of Chinese sports history, although it is a huge political adventure, but Li Zhengwu is not afraid of taking risks, he does not pursue those substantial benefits, he prefers fame, why? Leaving his own Li Zhengwu's name on the historical pillar of Chinese basketball and even world basketball is something Li Zhengwu is thinking about all the time.

He found that if Stephen was recruited into the national basketball team, his own reputation would be greatly improved, and at the same time, it would also play a very positive role in promoting the performance of the national team during his tenure. , He didn't quite understand that his specialty was being an official, operating, coordinating, and governing, but it was a very simple truth, more people are more powerful, let alone a player at the level of a Hercules.

Many people say that the Chinese have world-class insiders, but the outsiders are extremely weak. If the outsiders are stronger, Chinese basketball will be at least at the level of the top few, not to mention the world champions. However, it is so difficult to cultivate outsiders.

If Stephen is recruited, he and Yao Ming have one outside and one inside. The Chinese national team can at least compete with those strong teams. Teams like Germany, Spain, and France should have no problem.

Li Zhengwu is not thinking about this year's World Championships. Compared with the football World Cup, the basketball World Championships of the same nature are far inferior. The Olympic gold medal in football is chicken threat, and the Olympic gold medal in basketball is very valuable It goes without saying that the Olympics two years later will be held in China.

If you play well, it will not only be seen by the people of the whole country, but also the attention of the national leaders. Among the three major balls, volleyball has a tradition. The influence of football in the world is not comparable to that sport. Only basketball has The General Administration of Sports has always been unloved by grandma and uncle, and there is no heavyweight leadership support from above.

Li Zhengwu really wants to play Chinese basketball in the Olympics, prove his achievements to the people of the country, and at the same time leave a good impression on the leaders and give a good boost to the basketball career, but Yao Ming, who is alone It cannot be done. If Stephen can be recruited to help Yao Ming, Chinese basketball will surely achieve unprecedented good results.

However, according to what they learned, in addition to being of American nationality and Chinese descent, it seems that their family also had Mexican nationality. From his mother's point of view, he also has blood from several African countries, and Stephen can It is a bit more troublesome to have the nationality of these countries, but the Chinese nationality is a little more troublesome. Unless special approval is obtained from the state department, otherwise, according to their family's situation, it is not an easy task to obtain Chinese nationality.

Li Zhengwu is not worried that Stephen will be one step ahead of Mexico or those African countries, not to mention that they don't have this idea, even if they have, Stephen will not join the Mexican national team or the Côte d'Ivoire national team, but how did this matter start? One question. In the end, he decided to bring this matter to the work meeting of the basketball management center to see how everyone reacted. The decision made in this way was a collective decision, and any problems were collectively borne.

However, at the meeting, Li Zhengwu did not get the result he wanted. Most of the vice-chairmen did not agree with his own idea, especially the vice-chairman in charge of youth basketball training said without hesitation , there are countless good seedlings in the country, their strength is not inferior to the opponent, and they have not yet had the opportunity to join the national team. Why should an outsider join? Stephen just happened to be at the right time. The Spurs provided him with such an opportunity, so he played such a performance , Replaced by others, can also play such a performance.

This is pure nonsense, but because in recent years, the selection of players for the national team and the Olympic team no longer allowed him to intervene, but left the right to choose to the coaching staff, which lost a lot of direct money. Interest income, that's why he objected whenever something happened.

The other people's objections were due to various concerns, fear of causing controversy, fear of being ridiculed by the public for not even being able to train a basketball player, and they had to rely on foreigners, etc. There, Stephen was described as an arrogance with arrogance and no respect for others, which added to the resentment of these people.

Seeing that the direction of the meeting was going astray and losing his control, Li Zhengwu coughed and signaled a member of the party group of the basketball management center who had been following his train of thought to speak. The two had communicated on this topic. Stephen's recruitment was extended to the great significance of the Beijing Olympics in [-], which silenced these people.

Everyone knows the importance of this Olympic Games. If you do not play well in this Olympic Games, then all the previous achievements will be lost. And if the results are achieved, the leaders above will not ignore their credit. They only pay attention to the risks and forget that this matter is also creditable.

In this way, the voice of opposition is much smaller. Only the vice-chairman in charge of youth training still insists on his own opinion, and the vice-chairman in charge of the management of the two national football teams is worried that Stephen's character is a bit disobedient. He will affect the harmony and unity of the current national team. Such worries are a bit reasonable, but these are funeral affairs and can be resolved. The discussion now is whether to recruit Stephen.

In the end, it was still the vice-chairman who insisted on objecting, which could not lead to a unified conclusion. If Li Zhengwu continued to insist on recruiting, he would be the only one who would be held accountable by the higher-ups, so these matters would be left alone. up.
