Chapter 99: Baseball

Although Lip is a reborn person and has a sense of advancement, if he wants to succeed, he can't help but manage his network.

The management of contacts here does not mean to cling to the powerful.

In Lipu's previous business operations, he colluded with Jim Zhao and took the initiative to get to know Victor, which also belonged to the category of business connections.

Without these means, Lip would not be able to sit comfortably in a class at the University of Chicago right now.

Jim Zhao and Victor are not big names, but without them, Lip would not have been able to complete the primitive accumulation of his own capital.

Now Lipu, even if he doesn't do anything, waiting for the appreciation of more than 30,000 bitcoins in his hand, by the end of 2017, when the value of bitcoin rises to its peak, its net worth will exceed 100 million!

This is Lip's greatest confidence!

Lao Tzu is not a rich second generation, he is a rich generation!

has a good relationship with Lang, but he doesn't have the purpose of getting any benefits through him, it's just an idle move, and he wants to make his campus life in the next few months more comfortable.

If the relationship with your roommate is too stiff, it will definitely affect the rest of your life.

After lunch, Lang went back to his dorm room to play his video game, and Lip looked at it for a while, but didn't see why.

Lip, who is a year younger than Lang, is definitely in the category of young people in terms of age, but he doesn't have much of a young person's hobbies.

In addition to fitness.

In fact, whether in the United States or in China, there are not many young people who can really continue to exercise, and even if they do, most of them choose popular sports such as basketball and football, and very few choose fitness.

Relatively speaking, fitness is still relatively popular in the United States, but at the age of seventeen or eighteen, there are not many people who can train a well-defined figure like Lipu now.

The University of Chicago, due to the limited campus area and the number of students is not very large, although it has a rich and diverse sports program, it is still much weaker in sports than those universities that can produce Olympic gold medals and professional players in the four major leagues.

This also makes the University of Chicago, in the more popular football, basketball, baseball and other sports, unable to recruit any talented players, sports scholarships, mostly for fencing, gymnastics and other niche sports.

However, despite this, there are still sports teams that should be there.

When Lip was in junior high school, he played rugby for a while, but due to his talent, he did not develop much, and soon gave up on himself.

I'm not very interested in basketball or football.

Fitness is a non-Olympic sport, not included in the list of UChicago sports elective courses, and Lip wants to get a diploma from the University of Chicago, and during his studies, he needs to take two physical education courses and meet the standards.

After much consideration, Lip chose the three-kilometer run, as well as baseball.

Compared with football, which is known as the "national sport of the United States", ice hockey, which is relatively professional, as well as basketball and baseball, which are relatively popular among the public, do not have a great influence in the world, but in the United States, it is the sport whose influence is second only to football among the four major professional sports leagues.

Lip used to play on the baseball team in middle school, but of course, because of his limited talent, he soon gave up, and the only thing left was the baseball bat at home.

As the third largest city in the United States, Chicago has a very developed professional sports city, not only has the world-renowned Chicago Bulls, but also has two teams in Major League Baseball, namely the Chicago White Sox and the Chicago Cubs.

Lip is a Chicago Cubs fan.

The University of Chicago's baseball team, which is just an amateur recreational team, is also part of the NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association), but it only belongs to the third division and has limited strength.
