Chapter 1319: ready
Chapter 1319 Preparation
It’s really not easy to be a professional athlete, but with countless contests with Xiao Yao in the ring over the years, Zhou Zhihao knows that Xiao Yao’s physical fitness is not inferior to that of a professional athlete. Zhou Zhihao dare not say whether Xiao Yao can play professional basketball, but if Xiao Yao changes to boxing or free fighting, Zhou Zhihao knows that he is definitely a professional player.
The things that Xiao Yao has made up his mind to do for so many years have rarely been done. For more than a year, Zhou Zhihao felt that Xiao Yao could get a professional contract, so he just verbally stimulated Xiao Yao, really want to bet, he would definitely not do it.
What Zhou Zhihao didn't know was that for more than a year, before the new season next year, Xiao Yao was just a backup choice for himself. What Xiao Yao is thinking about is that he will get a professional contract before the new season this year. To this end, Xiao Yao also made preparations.
Generally speaking, professional players are trained in clubs and teams, but some stars also have their own private training teams. Although Xiao Yao is not even a professional player, in order to get a professional contract before the start of this year's new season, he also decided to form his own private training team.
Xiao Yao is not bad for money, and he also knows people in the basketball professional field. With this private training team, he naturally looks for top-notch ones.
The top personal trainer team generally serves top players. The United States is recognized as the dominant basketball player. The world's top basketball star is in the US NBA. The world's top basketball coach and trainer are also in the United States.
When Xiao Yao was in Italy, he contacted Evans, who he had known during the exhibition match, and asked him to help him find a candidate for his personal training team. Evans was a NBA All-Star player and top basketball star. After retiring from the game, his work has always been related to basketball, so he is not only familiar with the American basketball circle, but also has a close relationship. Among the people he knows, there is certainly no shortage of top-notch and free private training team members.
Hearing that Xiao Yao is about to change career to play professional basketball, Evans was both surprised and excited. He was very interested in this matter, and he quickly contacted several top professionals in the industry.
The private training team serves Xiao Yao. Evans is only an intermediary introducer and cannot replace Xiao Yao in signing an employment contract with them. Whether Xiao Yao and them can reach a cooperation and form a team can only be decided after the two parties have met and contacted.
The day after Xiao Yao’s wedding, after announcing the news of playing professional basketball with his relatives and friends, he took Sun Tingting to the United States to meet with the personal coaching team that Evans helped him find.
The choice is two-way. Xiao Yao needs to look at the personal trainer team, and people on the personal trainer team also look at Xiao Yao.
After listening to Evans introduce the resumes of these people, Xiao Yao has no doubts about them after knowing which basketball superstars they have coached or served respectively. On the contrary, those few did not directly approve Xiao Yao, but asked Xiao Yao to do some tests according to their requirements. They have to read the test results before deciding whether to accept Xiao Yao's employment and cooperate with Xiao Yao.
These people used to guide or serve the top stars of the US NBA. Now it is not that they can’t find a job. They just don’t want to work or have not met their favorite employers. People of their level, ordinary NBA star players, may not be able to invite them. They are willing to meet Xiao Yao because this matter is special enough.
To train an amateur player who has not undergone any system training, halfway to become an outstanding professional player, it is a very interesting and fulfilling thing for them. The amateur player is also a well-known entertainment star, and he does not lack the attention of the media. If this is done, the impact will be not small, and it will be even more attractive to them.
Of course, there is a prerequisite for this matter, that is, it must be done. And this accomplishment is not just for amateur players to get professional contracts. According to their standards, even if a player cannot become an All-Star, at least he must be a regular starter for a top-level league team to be able to accomplish this.
Although they have coached and served top players before, they also know how difficult it is for professional players to gain a foothold in the top leagues and how difficult it is for amateur players to switch careers. It is conceivable that professional players who have changed careers from amateur players want to It is definitely harder to play in the top league and start with a team's main force. Ordinary amateur players may not be able to do it, because Evans said that the employer is Yang Xiao, they are willing to try and are willing to meet Xiao Yao.
As one of the tie MVPs of the NBA All-Star Celebrity Game a few years ago, Xiao Yao is not considered unfamiliar in the American basketball circle. At least many people know that such an entertaining star plays extremely well in basketball. Chinese star. Several of them also had an impression of the name Yang Xiao.
When Evans approached them, he not only showed them the video of Xiao Yao's participation in the NBA All-Star Celebrity Tournament that year, but also showed them Xiao Yao's participation in the Charity Star Tournament in China at the beginning of this year and the participation in the China Professional Basketball Association earlier this year Basketball game video of the All-Star Masters. As professionals, they not only felt that Xiao Yao's performance in these three games was very good, but they also saw that Xiao Yao didn't seem to be doing his best in these three games.
This did not try his best, not to say that Xiao Yao deliberately hid his strength to play Master Ball. Xiao Yao must have done his best to deal with many goals in many rounds, otherwise it would be impossible to score so many points and assists and win three MVPs. This failure to do his best means that Xiao Yao did not do his best in the entire game.
The three games are all star exhibition games, and it is normal to not play at full capacity. The problem is that Xiao Yao didn't have the full game full play and won the same data. If the full game full play, what will be the result? Although the three games were non-professional games dominated by amateur players or amateur players, Xiao Yao's opponents were basically amateur players, with limited reference value, but they still saw Xiao Yao's great potential to become an excellent professional player.
However, the competition is after all a competition, not to mention the so-called exhibition competition. After meeting Xiao Yao, several professionals still asked Xiao Yao to do some tests according to their methods, to have a more comprehensive and detailed understanding of Xiao Yao's basketball technical ability, tactical understanding ability and physical fitness status.
For this request, Xiao Yao did not reject it, and very happily agreed to a few people to do the test they requested.
The test took two days in total, and the result was not only satisfactory to a few professionals, but also a little surprised and unexpected. Of course, it was the kind of surprise and surprise that was better than they expected.
Both parties are satisfied, the next step is to sign an employment contract.
These professionals each have their own areas of expertise. They work together in teams and are responsible for different aspects. There are technical coaches in charge of technical guidance and tactical explanations, data analysts in charge of video and data analysis, physical trainers in charge of physical fitness and strength training, nutritionists in charge of daily dietary nutrition and adjustment of the body, and in charge of sports injury treatment and post-exercise muscles Doctor and physiotherapist recovering from fatigue. The responsibilities, rights and remuneration of each person in the contract provided by Xiao Yao are different, but the duration of the contract is the same, which is a three-week short-term contract.
Xiao Yao means: After the contract is signed, he will, with their guidance and help, conduct a two-week special training in the United States, and then participate in a trial training for a professional basketball club. If the trial is passed and the professional contract is obtained, he will sign a long-term contract with them again, and they will become Xiao Yao's long-term private team. If the trial training fails, whether it is Xiao Yao’s problem or not, it means that the cooperation has not achieved good results, so...
The players in the US NBA have short-term contracts for more than ten days, and three-week short-term contracts are not unbelievable for these people. It is the first time that Xiao Yao has dealt with them. This resultistic approach is also normal in the thinking of Americans who value their interests. If you can't become a professional player and you have to sign a long-term contract with them and raise them a bunch of people, then you are stupid and rich.
The two parties signed the contract, and Xiao Yao had his own personal training team. Next, is a two-week special training.
In response to Xiao Yao’s situation, the training team formulated a very detailed and seemingly stringent training plan for Xiao Yao’s two-week special training. Xiao Yao all clenched his teeth and persevered. The effect of the special training in these two weeks is quite obvious.
Sun Tingting, as Xiao Yao’s "newly married" wife, has been training with Xiao Yao all this time. Even if Sun Tingting is not a basketball professional, even if Sun Tingting is with Xiao Yao every day, he can clearly feel Xiao Yao's changes in the past two weeks.
After the two weeks of special training, Xiao Yao is ready to take the training team back to China to participate in the professional club trial training. This was originally agreed with the people of the training team when he signed the three-week short-term contract, but on the eve of Xiao Yao's notice to the training team to return to China, the people of the training team had other ideas.
"Do I have to go to China’s club for a trial?" technical coach Daniel Williams asked: "Although the NBA draft this year is over, there are still more than ten days before the start of the season. The team is okay. Sign a free agent. We can recommend you to the NBA team with Evans, and directly contact a NBA team for you to try out. With your ability and our reputation in the American basketball world, you It's not that there is no chance of getting a contract with the American basketball team."
"Maybe it can." Xiao Yao said, "However, although there are still ten days before the start of the season, the main frame of the American basketball team should have been completed. Even if I can get a professional contract, Leaving aside the length of the contract, I think it would be difficult for me to get a lot of playing time in a short period of time. Maybe I will be transferred to the Development League, and even fight for playing opportunities in the Development League."
"It's not impossible," Daniel Williams nodded, and then said, "But this is a test and stage that many players must go through. Can you go to the Huaxia team and you can start directly? I think you probably still have to go through that stage."
"It's not the same," Xiao Yao shook his head. "The chance of starting directly is very small, but it's not impossible. More importantly, my reputation and influence in the United States can't be compared with that of China. So the opportunities that I can get in the Chinese professional team, at least the initial opportunities, are different from the opportunities that I can get in the American basketball team."
"In Huaxia, there are really a considerable number of people who buy tickets just to see me." Xiao Yao continued, "As long as a team in China Basketball Association signs me, it is unlikely that they will keep suppressing me from playing. Because the media and the public will criticize the team that signing me is purely hype, just to deceive fans and my fans to buy tickets. The NBA does not have a development league for the team to delegate players to examine and exercise, so at least at the beginning of the season, I will definitely be able to If you get a certain amount of playing time in the league, you will have a chance to perform."
"In the final analysis, players still need to be strong enough to gain a foothold in the team." Daniel Williams said, "If you have the strength, even if you can't play in the early stage, you will still wait for the opportunity later. Without the strength, even if you are in the early stage. If you play badly on the field, there will be no chance. Fans and fans like you again, but if you don’t perform well, the team has a reason not to let you play. Even if the team sent you on the field, the fans will boo you. , Asking the team to reduce or even deprive you of playing time."
"This is the truth." Xiao Yao nodded, "However, I think that in addition to my own strength, the path and process of career development are also very important, and the improvement of my own strength is also related to the path and process of development."
"For example, Yang Chen," Xiao Yao cites, "I think if he hadn't played in the China National Basketball Association for two years and won the China National Basketball Association championship, regular season MVP, and finals MVP, he might not Become the No. 1 pick in the NBA draft. Not the No. 1 pick. Maybe he won't have so much playing time in the early days of the NBA, won't be the main player or even the core of the team so quickly, and won't become a great star in the Hall of Fame. Therefore, I think it is a better choice to start with the China National Basketball Association."
"Yang Chen?" Daniel Williams thought for a while and nodded unconsciously, "What you said makes sense."
"Yang..." Daniel Williams spoke again and suddenly smiled, "Ha, Yang, your name is also Yang, you are the same name as Chen."
"No, Chen's name is Chinese, his Chinese name is Yang." Xiao Yao laughed, "and my Chinese name is "yao", and Yang is my English name."
"You named Yang yourself in English? Is it because of Chen?" Daniel Williams laughed, "You regard Chen as your idol. Have you already thought about going the way he walked?"
"No!" Xiao Yao shook his head. "Chen's parents are both professional basketball players from China. He has systematically received professional basketball training since he was a child. When I was young, I learned music, musical instruments, photography, and even how to do it. Acting. To tell you a secret, when I was five years old, Chen wanted to send me to professional basketball training, but I refused. At that time, although I also liked basketball, I also liked many other things. Never thought of being a professional basketball player."
"It's a pity!" Daniel Williams shook his head and sighed, "If you accepted Chen's suggestion back then, maybe you don't need us now, and you have long become the main force in the US NBA team."
"Perhaps, but I don't feel it a pity." Xiao Yao smiled, "There is no doubt that Chen is a great player. But it is precisely because I rejected Chen when I was a child. Now I have not experienced professional and systematic basketball training. If I can achieve the same achievements as Chen in basketball, then I will be a greater player than him."
"I like what you think!" Daniel Williams smiled, "I think I like you more. Let us work hard together for you to achieve this goal! Just as you say, let's go to the China National Basketball Association. Team tryout!"
"No problem, let's do it!" Several others also nodded in agreement.
"You will like China, trust me!" Xiao Yao smiled.
