Chapter 300 S.335. Leaders
The Youth Sports Center ushered in a special day. As agreed, former national basketball coach Gong Luming and basketball star Liu Yudong led 8 active national men’s basketball team members to visit the FBP basketball program. The format of the competition was semi-open. Although there is no audience, the news media will record the whole process.

"Yuming!" Gong Luming stepped forward to shake hands with Mr. Xu, and said affectionately, "Long time no see!"

Mr. Xu shook hands with the two of them and said, "Long time no see, Lu Ming, Yu Dong, stay safe."

Gong Luming patted Xu Gong on the shoulder and said, "Yu Ming, FBP's young talents are really outstanding. Both Yu Dong and I agree with their strength."

Liu Yudong followed suit and said to Xu Gong: "Yes, Xu Gong, the reason why Mr. Gong and I brought the members of the national men's basketball team here this time to propose an exchange game is to let these children get in touch with the highest level of basketball in the country, so that they can compete with each other. Basketball has a deeper and clearer understanding, and I believe it will be a valuable experience and wealth for these young talents."

"Thank you, but I can't agree."

Xu Gongzheng replied in a sincere voice: "I'm sorry, I didn't receive the notice of the game a few days ago due to some things, and now I officially reject it. FBP will not exchange games with the national men's basketball team."

As soon as Xu Gong's words came out, Gong Luming and Liu Yudong were surprised, and began to try their best to persuade him to change his mind. Xu Gong said with a serious expression: "Lu Ming, Yudong, I don't know what kind of pressure you are under to lead the active national men. Members of the basketball team came to exchange games with a group of 16-year-old basketball teenagers from FBP... This is simply outrageous! You who used to be basketball coaches, do you have this kind of suppressing mentality when you treat thriving teenagers?!"

What Gong Luming and Liu Yudong said made Gong Luming and Liu Yudong feel ashamed. Gong Luming said with an insincere expression: "Yuming, so you know... Sorry, my old teammate, since the last match between FBP and the National Youth Basketball Team Afterwards, the voices from the outside world were overwhelming, and they ridiculed the incompetence of the Sports Committee of the Basketball Association. Due to rumors and pressure, the organization had no choice but to entrust Yudong and I to take the lead in selecting 8 members from the national men's basketball team. A pretense, but in fact..."

"In fact, it is to suppress the FBP basketball program, right? Let this group of basketball-loving teenagers know that the sky is high and the earth is strong, right? Am I right?"

Xu Gong scolded Gong Luming and said: "I am so disappointed in you, Lu Ming, Yudong, you immediately took the members of the national men's basketball team out of the Youth Sports Center, it is absolutely ridiculous!"

Gong Luming and Liu Yudong looked at each other in silence, and Liu Yudong said helplessly with a showdown expression: "Mr. Gong, I said earlier that Xu Gong would not agree, and it will not work for you to act."

Gong Luming said with a worried expression: "Oh, it's all the fault of the system. The education system and the national youth team trained by the system are in a mess. Even after they are really defeated, they still want to put pressure on the organization and have a revenge mentality. Attempting to suppress FBP... I should not have compromised and brought the members of the national men's basketball team here, Yuming, I was wrong."

Xu Gongyu said in earnest words: "Lu Ming, Yudong, FBP are created by me to give them a dream come true for those outstanding basketball teenagers. Each of them is like my own child. My only wish is to Watching them thrive and being truly happy and fulfilled, I hope you understand."

Gong Luming apologized deeply, and an hour later announced that the semi-public exchange match between the national men's basketball team and FBP had been cancelled. After hearing the news, we all had different expressions. The coach said comfortably: "Mr. After seeing this public competition, it can be seen that he cares about you very much."

"In that case..." Hua Yanlei crossed his hands and speculated, "Did we anger the Basketball Association last time when we beat the National Youth Team? So we exerted pressure to propose this match against the National Men's Basketball Team. , is really funny."

"Hey, Mr. Xu is better." Ding Yuhang tied his shoelaces and stood up and said, "That's right, we are just teenagers, so we don't need the national men's basketball team to suppress it, it's too outrageous! Haha."

Faced with such a result, other expressions were different. Yang Jiancheng turned to me and asked, "Shangguan Jinnan, what do you think of this matter?"

I don't know whether this moment was a blessing or a fluke, but I felt a sense of loss in my heart. After a long time, I replied: "I am very grateful for everything Mr. Xu has done for us...but I feel a little regretful."

"Me too."

As soon as I finished speaking, Ye Tianming, who was standing behind me, spoke immediately.Afterwards, we all focused on him, and then Lu Xiaoyan said, "I feel the same as Nan."

Liang Tianyu said indifferently: "It's a pity that the match has been cancelled."

"Me too." Zheng Junhao answered casually in silence, and Guo Jianfeng beside him spread his hands and said, "I am the same."

Hua Yanlei's eyes were sharp and he laughed at himself, "I'm a guy who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, I'm really a bit regretful."

"Since you all said that." Xiahou Keqing patted Lei Fang on the shoulder and said, "It's the same with us."

"Are you sorry?" Xiao Changfeng scratched his head and said, "Then I am too."

"Pfft, so you all think so." Zhao Mingjie said cheerfully, "Suddenly not being able to compete with the national men's basketball team, I didn't take it as a fluke, but I still have various regrets. Haha, are we a group of people crazy?"

"Ah, crazy." Ding Yuhang raised his head and smiled wryly, "But the regret is true."

"You too." Wang Meng pressed his hand on Yang Jiancheng's shoulder and asked, "It was a pity that the match against the national men's basketball team, the highest level in the country, was suddenly canceled, right?"

Yang Jiancheng took a deep breath, his eyes were like tigers, he looked at everyone randomly and said, "Brothers, it's not enough to say regret...we will walk this road by ourselves."

Unanimous decision, the 14 of us reached an agreement with Gong Luming and his group who were about to leave the Youth Sports Center, and proposed to continue the basketball exchange game. Lord, some will only be a closed deathmatch.

Gong Luming replied: "Okay, I promise you that this competition will not be made public, and Mr. Xu will not know about it. You are all 16-year-old young talents. I hope you can benefit a lot from this competition... …I will tell the members of the national men's basketball team to be in the game"

"Stop looking down on people."

Yang Jiancheng stretched out his finger and left a word to Gong Luming, then slowly turned around, wiped his nose and walked away with his back.After a long time, Liu Yudong patted Gong Luming on the shoulder and said, "Mr. Gong, don't take it lightly. Even if they are only 16 years old, they are not easy to mess with."

Gong Luming let out a long breath and nodded slightly.

So, just like that, the official match between FBP and the national men's basketball team is about to kick off.
