full court guidance

Chapter 47

Seeing that Yao Ming was in a bit of trouble, he couldn't help but half-jokingly asked, "Isn't it the Basketball Association?"

Then he was stunned. There will be the Asian Championships in September this year. It seems that it is not impossible for the Basketball Association to come to him.

Seeing Yao Ming's expression later, he knew he had guessed right.

A sheep is herded, and a flock of sheep is also herded, so let's see each other by the way.

However, I still felt a little uncomfortable for being late. The Basketball Association directly approached Yao Ming and said that he would come to visit him. He didn't even disclose the news beforehand, obviously he didn't take him seriously.

Yao Ming also felt a little embarrassed, so he said, "I'll pick it up myself."

After speaking, he fled out of the late home in embarrassment.

The dispute between Yao Ming and the Basketball Association is well known. The greedy Basketball Association even wanted to pocket 50% of Yao Ming's salary, otherwise it would not agree to Yao Ming's request to join the NBA.

Afterwards, it was Bill Duffy who disclosed the matter to the American media, which caused an uproar abroad, and the Basketball Association, which was unable to step down, had to make a concession and asked Yao Ming to give 5% of his salary to the Basketball Association as training fees.

It can be seen from this incident that these people are real, and once they have the power, they will follow orders. There is no bottom line in the search, and even their IQs are owed.

It is said that Wang Zhizhi was not able to travel immediately after the draft, but also because the Basketball Association hindered it.

Both of them were cultivated through the domestic system, so they are naturally restricted by the Basketball Association.

But there is no such concern about being late. If you offend him, you can expose this matter to the sky.

Yao Ming moved very quickly. Less than an hour later, he led a middle-aged man in his 40s back.

"It's so small, this is Director Chen of the Basketball Association's Divisional Center."

"Director Chen, this one is late."

As an intermediary, Yao Ming introduced them, chatted with Yao Ming for a few words, and then excused himself to go to the bathroom to save space.

Director Chen acted like a real bureaucrat, with a condescending tone, caring about his late physical condition, training situation and so on.

Being late is not an impatient person. When doing scientific research, sometimes you may not be able to achieve success in ten years, but his patience depends on the person, and wasting time with a bureaucrat is obviously not what he wants.

"Director Chen, we don't speak dark words in front of people, just speak up if you have anything to say."

Late's tone was blunt, and it was harsh to my ears.

Director Chen couldn't help frowning slightly, but the expression on his face didn't change, and he said haha: "Athletes who are so young are all straightforward, right? Then I won't play tricks, the national team intends to recruit you to participate in this year's Asian Championships Sai, I hope you can report back to China on time before July 7."

His tone was entirely informing, which made it even more unpleasant to be late.

The Asian Championship is the most influential basketball game in Asia. It will be held every single year. Since the Chinese team joined the Asian Championship, it has always maintained its dominance over Asia, and it is rare for the champion to fall apart.

The problem is that the level of Asian basketball is far behind that of Europe, let alone the NBA?

Being late doesn't mean I can't see the Asian Championships, and I never thought about participating. If it's the Olympics or the World Championships (later changed to the World Cup), I don't mind being late.

Late asked patiently: "Director Chen, I just started playing in the professional league this year, can I really participate in the Asian Championships?"

Director Chen laughed: "You are able to gain a firm foothold in the Rockets, which is already better than many of our domestic players. Now the domestic response is also very strong. Fans and friends hope that you can join the national team and win glory for the country. This is also true. Your glory, but..."

After finishing speaking, he paused, and his tone took a big turn: "There are still some small requirements for participating in the national team. You have to pay a certain fee."

I was furious when I was late, and I have never heard of paying the fee first to serve the country.

Just as she was about to lose her temper, Sister Chen and Wang Zhizhi came back together.

Seeing Wang Zhizhi, Director Chen just ignored him, obviously not paying attention to him at all.

Before the incident of Wang Zhizhi's return to the country broke out, he was directly blocked in the country, which made him very embarrassed. People like Director Chen really have the right to ignore Wang Zhizhi.

Da Zhi looked embarrassed, and also made an excuse to go to the bathroom, and then hid aside.

Sister Chen put Wang Zhizhi's physical examination report on the table in front of Late, and stood directly behind Late.

With such an episode, it is not easy to get angry about being late, so I had to ask: "I don't know how much I have to pay?"

Director Chen pondered for a while and said: "It's so small, I also know that you must have emotions in your heart. It is an honor for each of us to play for the national team. It is a last resort to charge a certain fee for the convenience of management. We Guaranteed, every penny must be spent wisely."

After explaining the truth again, Director Chen stretched out three fingers: "You only need to pay a fee of 30 yuan, and you are now a person with a contract in the NBA. This amount of money should not be a problem for you. question."

Late this time, I finally couldn't hold back the fire. The 1+1 contract signed by the Rockets with him, the total amount is 121 million, which is right.

But there are many types of taxes in the United States. The tax rate in Texas, where Houston is located, is also not low. In the end, only about 121% of the 50 million contract was in his hands.

It is said that mastering core technology is the only way to get rich.

Being late as a genius-level scientific researcher, such a small amount of money will naturally not be taken seriously, but this does not mean that he will give his money to others for no reason.

30 million!
Even if you buy dog ​​food and feed it to the dog, you can get the dog to wag its tail a few times.

But if you give it to the guys from the basketball association, they will laugh at you as a fool and take it for granted that you pay.

He didn't answer even when he was late, and turned his head to Sister Chen and said, "Throw this bastard out for me."

Sister Chen nodded vigorously and pushed Director Chen out.

Director Chen wanted to persuade him a few more words, but when he saw Late's firm attitude, he immediately changed his face and threatened: "Late, you are just a player who disobeys the management of our basketball association. Wang Zhizhi is your role model. If you don’t believe us, we can destroy your reputation and make you unable to return home.”

Late smiled coldly: "If you don't believe me, just try it if you have the guts."

When Director Chen was pushed out, Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi, who were hiding aside, also came out together.

Yao Ming felt very embarrassed and kept apologizing.

When he was late, he said in relief: "Brother Yao, I won't take this kind of thing to heart. The guys from the Basketball Association don't have much power, but they have a lot of greed. Anyway, I won't get used to their stink, and they will take it too." I can't help it, you don't have to worry, do you really think I have nothing to rely on?"

Wang Zhizhi said: "It's so small, you still have to be careful, my case is a lesson from the past, you have to be careful!"

In fact, all parties were responsible for the incident of Dazhi not returning, and Wang Zhizhi himself admitted this in front of the late face.

When his contract with the Mavericks expired, Dazhi, who had already found out that he was not strong enough, was determined to make a name for himself in the United States, so he went to the Clippers for trial training and rejected the call-up of the national team—those low-level Big Zhi didn't like the Asian games, and he didn't think it could improve his basketball level. He wanted to play in the summer league!

This also became the fuse of the Da Zhi incident.

Because of his military status, it was much more difficult for Da Zhi to stay in the United States than ordinary people. At that time, he contacted people he was familiar with in the military many times and wanted to apply for discharge.

This incident was interpreted by Judy Flood, a female reporter in Dallas, as Big Zhi wanting to defect and fight against the government.

No kidding, the unscrupulousness of my reporter at the Lighthouse of Greater Freedom is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

In fact, Wang Zhizhi never thought of betraying the country, he just wanted to prove himself too urgently and wanted to make a name for himself.

It can be said that the reason for all this is the lack of sufficient communication and trust among the various forces involved, and some people with ulterior motives fanning the flames among them.

Now that Wang Zhizhi is still facing punishment from the Basketball Association, it really feels like he can't go home. In the end, when he was desperate, he contacted Yao Ming and found Tate for help.

If Chairman Yao takes office in the future, a situation like Wang Zhizhi will never happen, because Chairman Yao himself has played in the United States and knows exactly what the players want.

Being late can only show that I am not worried about the threat from the Basketball Association, so I turned the topic to Wang Zhizhi's training matters.

Wang Zhizhi's physical examination report is still very detailed. He is 218cm tall (registered as 213cm), weighs 113KG and is slightly lighter, and his wingspan is 225cm, which is very good. Yao Ming's height is 229cm, and his wingspan is only 223.
The final result is that Wang Zhizhi is slightly underweight. If he can reach 118-120KG, it will be the most ideal state.

His technique is outstanding, and the technical flexibility under his feet (does not mean that he moves fast). The problem is obvious.

Wang Zhizhi's biggest problem is physical confrontation.

His strength is not weak, but he is at the middle and lower level of power forwards-in fact, with his height, he should play as a center forward, which will further show his disadvantages in confrontation.

Wang Zhizhi's core strength is poor, but this is the most critical aspect of NBA players.

The reason why Late was able to gain a firm foothold in the NBA in a short period of time is because of his strong core strength, fearlessness of confrontation, and good defensive skills.

Before deciding to join the NBA, Late had undergone a long period of professional training, and these training plans were made by himself-don't underestimate the ability of a super student.

Of course, being late also used a little cheating means—for example, a certain drug that he developed by himself can improve cell activity, which allows him to achieve twice the result with half the effort during training.

After all, Wang Zhizhi is only a second-round pick. Even if he joins the NBA, there are no excellent coaches to give him special guidance, which makes his training lack of pertinence. However, Wang Zhizhi's skills are basically mature, and the most lacking thing is specifically for physical fitness. Training, this is the fundamental reason why he has not played in the NBA for several seasons.
