Chapter 63 [Difficulties on the Road to Success]
Late at night.
Drops of sweat soaked through his white vest.
The stadium is brightly lit.
Only a figure was still sweating inside, Cheng Junjie gasped for breath, he swallowed a mouthful of water, and stood outside the three-point line practicing long-range shooting ball after ball.
His height is a hard injury, and he is short on the court at 1.78 meters.
His ears couldn't help but recall the laughter of the crowd on the pitch today.
"Hey, that's the kid!"
"I heard he wanted to play professional basketball. β
"The fancy ones, I guess it's the habit of playing wild ball, and I haven't touched a real master. β
"yes, I was capped just now. β
"Go home, don't challenge someone else's profession with your hobbies!"
Cheng Junjie gritted his teeth, he has undergone a week of professional training, corrected some minor bad habits, and his physical strength has also improved, and his shooting percentage has also improved.
And in order for him to have a deeper impression of his level.
The team took him to Huatong Jiaotong University, one of the strong teams in the CUBA college basketball league, and had an entertainment 3V3 with the people inside.
Even though there were tragic scenes.
Looking at it, almost all of them are about 190 meters tall, and there are even 2 meters tall, and he can't get a single rebound in the whole game.
And he made three layups and was blocked twice, so that later he didn't dare to go inside to make a layup, and could only choose a mid-to-long-range jumper.
The onlookers were like watching the ugly duckling perform, and all kinds of mocking laughter came out.
The vast majority of them are unintentional.
Because he is really embarrassed, and he is very weak and vegetable.
But for him, it was the first time in his life that he was ridiculed and ridiculed like this.
What made him feel most desperate was that the suppression of the physical conflict was much stronger than when he usually played, as if the opponent was restricting him with a single position, he couldn't move, and there were several mistakes in connecting the ball.
He can clearly feel that this is not a gap in technology.
But there is a world of difference between a true amateur and a professional.
The speed of consciousness in the move, the timing of the shot, and the foul made him enter another world.
Basically, no one would do this in normal play, but in actual games, fouling to prevent scoring is one of the common methods.
Watching a game on TV is really different from actually experiencing it off the field.
When someone tells themselves.
You can, you have the opportunity to become a top professional footballer.
And also managed to convince the family, and even paved all the roads.
There are nutritionists and professional coaches, which made him think that he was one step away from success.
But reality slapped him mercilessly.
It turns out that I am still a lot, much worse!
The dietitian said that according to his current bone growth, there is no problem in growing four or five centimeters taller.
In other words, his limit may be about 183.
He knew very well that he was capped not only because of his height, but because he was beaten indiscriminately and did not find his position.
And underestimate the opponent too much.
As the saying goes, don't challenge other jobs with your hobbies.
He is good at cutting with the ball, as well as mid-to-long-distance shooting, as long as he works hard to practice his positioning, open up the gap, and improve his 1v1 singles ability is the king.
The strong players in the real sense are all watched and targeted on the court.
It's undoubtedly harder to score at this time.
Cheng Junjie is like suddenly seeing the outside world from a frog at the bottom of a well, and it turns out that he is just so small.
β¦β¦
Time passed quietly.
Finally, it was early in the morning.
He returned home with the basketball in his arms and clicked the door.
only to find that the old mother had already made breakfast and waited for him to come back.
You know, it's only half past six in the morning.
Cheng's mother smiled: "I knew you were going out to play ball again, eat, eat something to pad your stomach first." β
"Don't work too hard, take the road step by step!"
"I've heard about you going to play at someone else's school. β
It was in that moment.
Cheng Junjie suddenly couldn't help sobbing and said, "Mom, was I too naΓ―ve before?"
He couldn't help but lower his head, tears fell on the table one by one, and he choked up: "I'm too weak, I feel so far behind." β
He felt an indescribable discomfort, as if you thought you had scored 80 points.
As a result, the exam paper was sent, and you realized that you only had 60 points.
Cheng's mother sighed and said, "Alas, stupid child!"
"If you don't even believe in yourself, then who can help you?"
"Hold on, you're right!"
"Success is never easy, and if you don't dare to try, you'll never be able to get out. β
"Either way, I hope you can make a decision that you don't regret. β
After the last communication, she realized that the child has really grown up, and as a parent, she really shouldn't decide what the child's future should be.
After all, they don't have any good ideas for the way, so it's better to let the children break through on their own.
If it works, if it doesn't, it doesn't.
Cheng's mother opened her mouth and smiled: "Today I also went to ask for a safe paper crane, I heard that a few days ago, the doctor who jumped off the building actually went to the master to tell the hexagram." β
Probably the master reminded him that he said something he didn't want to hear, and then they quarreled. β
"In the end, something happened!"
"So don't think too much, since the master is so optimistic about you, you can't let others down!"
Cheng's mother deliberately laughed aggressively: "Don't tell me that you just gave up?"
Hearing this, Cheng Junjie suddenly looked up anxiously and explained: "I didn't say to give up!"
He gritted his teeth and wiped the corners of his eyes, and then said, "I'm sure I can do it, I won't disappoint everyone!"
"Isn't this it!" Cheng's mother smiled: "You see that there are many people in Douyin who support you, and they all suffer a loss and grow wise, and if you practice well in the future, you will go back to take revenge!"
At this point, Cheng's mother stood up, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, let's eat, go back and squint for a while after eating, if you don't sleep at night, you will definitely not be energetic!"
Cheng Junjie looked at his mother's slowly departing back.
Looking at this old home, the refrigerator that has been used for more than ten years, and the washing machine that always makes noisy noises.
Everything that comes into view.
He wanted to change.
He wants to make his parents live a better life on his own.
Cheng Junjie's eyes slowly became firm, and he told himself silently.
The sins suffered today will be recovered tenfold and hundredfold in the future.
No matter how difficult the road is, he has to go on, and those who laugh at him, feel like you make me strong.
