Chapter 176: The Dream Begins
Lang Lang felt that Jiang Chao was really an interesting young man.
After the signing ceremony, DG began to operate Jiang Chao's records as a full-fledged agent, which inevitably involved inviting Jiang Chao to attend some activities, but Jiang Chao turned them all down!
This made Old John so anxious and helpless that he called Lang Lang, who was also Chinese, to complain.
After Lang Lang heard this, he was also a little crying and laughing, so he contacted Jiang Chao to ask the reason, and when he heard Jiang Chao's reason, he was immediately even happier.
Because, the half-term exam is coming, and Jiang Chao has to study.
Learn...... Practice......
In the end, Lang Lang called back to Old John, saying that he couldn't help. Not to mention Lang Lang, even the king of heaven and Lao Tzu can't stop Jiang Chao from having a heart that loves learning.
Old John could only accept it helplessly. Some artists do have a lot of quirky habits, and Jiang Chao is pretty good.
In addition to preparing for the midterm exams, Jiang Chao also did an important thing in the past month, which was to accompany Ding Xuan to his first mixed martial arts match.
The opponent is a top fighter from Thailand.
This game is Ding Xuan's maiden battle, it is impossible not to be nervous, but if it is difficult, it may not be difficult. Ding Xuan will also collapse, although it is far worse than Jiang Chao's realm, but it also has a 30% increase, as long as Ding Xuan's heavy punch with collapse is solid, few heavyweight opponents like him can withstand it.
This game didn't get a lot of attention.
Although Canghai Dueling is the top competition in China, the commercial fighting atmosphere in China is still in its infancy, and it is not as mature as it has been developed in the West for hundreds of years. Most people who watch martial arts can't understand it, and what they like to see is the drama of Chinese people winning foreign "boxing champions".
Therefore, in order to cater to the public, there are two kinds of events in Canghai, one is the TV version for ordinary people, and generally arranges strong Chinese people to fight very weak foreigners, so that ordinary people can watch it very coolly, and Chinese players on TV rarely lose, and will always beat those foreign "boxing champions".
The other is a really high-quality and high-level game, which is broadcast on the network for a fee. Those who follow this kind of competition are veteran Chinese and even world veteran martial arts fans, who know the strength level of the fighters in detail, and many are even martial arts athletes themselves. The fighters are also high-quality fighters of comparable strength, and here Chinese fighters not only rarely beat foreign champions, but are often beaten.
Ding Xuan's competition belongs to the second type of competition.
Due to Ding Xuan's lack of fame, the number of people watching this game on the Internet was less than a thousand, and less than half of the seats were only seated at the scene.
Ding Xuan did not disappoint Jiang Chao.
In this match, he did a lot of pre-match preparation, studying the characteristics and tactics of his opponent in detail. Both sides were cautious in the first round, Ding Xuan kept a good distance, patiently maneuvered with his opponent, and launched an attack without using the collapse momentum, giving the opponent the illusion that it was nothing more than that. But in the second round, Ding Xuan suddenly exerted his strength, and while dodging the opponent's straight punch, a hook with collapse hit the opponent's chin firmly, and Jiang Chao knew that the game was over when he saw this scene in the audience.
Sure enough, the opponent swayed, stubbornly punched twice into the air, and fell unwillingly in the ring, struggling to get up, but his body did not obey.
After being hit in the vagus nerve, although the consciousness is still awake, it is like the brain suddenly interrupting the control of the body, and the whole person is confused. Ding Xuan didn't make up the punch, he knew the power of his punch, the corners of his mouth had already begun to rise, and he turned around and opened his hands to enjoy the applause.
Sure enough, the referee quickly ended the game in order to protect the fighters. Ding Xuan won his maiden fight with his first knockout.
Jiang Chao excitedly came to the stage and hugged Ding Xuan, sincerely happy for his brother. He knew that Ding Xuan had officially set sail on his own path from today.
Speaking of dreams set sail, Jordan also brought good news.
In the past NCAA Basketball March Madness, Jordan played better and better. Especially in the 1/4 finals, Ronnie was injured again, Jordan carried the team's offense alone, and scored 36 points, 3 steals, 8 assists and 9 rebounds in the all-round data, and dragged Los Angeles University into the finals in the absence of the team's big boss, and suddenly became a hero in the whole of California.
Although he unfortunately lost in the finals, Jordan's outstanding performance throughout the series amazed the entire beautiful national basketball circle. Some NBA scouts have also taken an eye on the talented student player from China.
Jordan's outstanding performance also shocked the basketball circles in Huaguo. Many people on the Internet money discuss Jordan's future prospects.
There is extreme praise that does not hesitate.
"Huaguo's most promising defender!"
"The style of play is unrestrained, and if he returns to China, he will be the first in the country. ”
There is also a topic of leading the war.
"Jordan hangs any defender in the country. ”
"Sure enough, it still needs the system of a beautiful country to cultivate excellent players......
There are also people who ignore Jordan's performance and maliciously belittle it from the other side: "It's just a star created by a beautiful country for the Chinese market, if you believe it, you will be stupid." ”
In this regard, many people mercilessly ridiculed, "Do you know basketball?
"Jordan's performance can be said to be praised, it's really a big country, and there are ...... any kind of brains"
Jordan caused a heated discussion, and even Chairman Yao was asked by a sports reporter what he thought of Jordan. The legendary new president of the basketball association did not hesitate to praise: "I have watched his games, and I can even say that I have been following this kid all along. Not to mention his skill level, I believe that leading the team to an NCAA overall runner-up finish speaks for itself. I'm more concerned about his hard work, the attitude of not admitting defeat and not giving up until the last second, which is exactly what many of our players lack. ”
The reporter asked if it was about Jordan and the national team, and Chairman Yao said with a smile: "The national team is now an invitation system, and talented and powerful players are certainly worthy of our invitation." But Jordan is not a player trained by our system after all, and the content involved in this cannot be clearly explained in one or two sentences. We will continue to follow Jordan's performance in the beautiful country!"
While causing heated discussions in China, Jordan's personality has become more introverted, Jiang Chao talked about Jordan's heated discussions in China on the phone, he just smiled indifferently: "Where is this, it is only a skill to be able to play a famous role in the NBA." ”
Jiang Chao thought for a while and asked, "What are you going to do next?"
Jordan hesitated: "To be honest, this is also the question I want to ask you." I want to be in this year's NBA Draft, what do you think?"
Jiang Chao was slightly stunned, and then said with a smile: "It seems that many scouts have already looked for you?"
Jordan said, "Yes. There's a good chance I'm going to be picked in the first round right now...... Although my coach suggested that I play in the NCAA for one more year, I couldn't wait. I want to get into the NBA right away and play against the best people in the world!"
Jiang Chao thought about it seriously: "I don't think there is any problem. This is something to celebrate, as long as you think clearly, do it boldly, I will always support you!"
Jordan was silent for a moment, "Thank you, brother! That's what I want!"
In this way, Jiang Chao's two best brothers have successfully set sail on their respective dreams, and Jiang Chao's joy is no less than that of the two of them.
