Chapter 52: The Summer Wind
"I'm better than you in breaking through. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Zhou Zheng turned around and told Ginobili simply.
Ginobili is known for his sharp and bizarre breakthroughs, but at this moment he actually nodded: "You're right. ”
Zhou Zheng didn't use any flashy techniques just now, just kept speeding up the pace, and then did it overnight...... It's as if you've cut your opponent's throat with a nail clipper.
"You have a bright future. ”
"But tonight, the victory belongs to Argentina," Ginobili stressed. ”
Zhou Zheng didn't speak, just shouted to defend and mobilize the enthusiasm of his teammates.
Argentina returned to half-time, and Ginobili did not single Zhou Zheng again. He's a player in the Spurs system, and he doesn't have the habit of going head-to-head with the opposition. He made a solid block for Nocioni, and then Nocioni took away Zhou Zheng's help defense, and then passed the ball to Oberto, who forced Wang Zhizhi to ...... Swish!
Scored again in the penalty area.
The Spaniards taught Argentina a lot...... After the Chinese team lacked Yao Shu as a barrier in the penalty area, their interior defense ability was almost zero...... The forbidden area duo formed by Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian is not much different from an ATM.
Every coach on the coaching staff of the Chinese team clearly knows that the defensive problems of Wang Zhizhi and Yi Jianlian are a stubborn disease. But they can only be put on the pitch because their offensive strength is unmatched by other players.
While Argentina was attacking the inside, the Chinese team quietly picked up.
The Argentine players were not slow to retreat, but... The Chinese players felt very good tonight. And Zhou Zheng changed his identity, he was liberated from the main control, and turned into the team's setter, he received Chen Jianghua's pass every time and then conducted.
The efficiency has not been greatly reduced in a short period of time, and it is still efficient.
This made Sani see infinite possibilities, she never thought that Zhou Zheng could play the role of no ball. In fact, when Zhou Zheng proposed this idea to her before the game, she thought that Zhou was joking.
However, a quarter of the game came down.
At 27:26, the Chinese team led by 1 point with Du Feng's three-point whistle.
"As long as we keep this score until the last minute, we can win our first ever World Championship medal. ”
The CCTV commentator said a word of nonsense excitedly.
This is a math problem that elementary school students can solve.
But now the question is how to complete this math problem.
It's not easy to stay ahead of Argentina all the time.
Zhou Zheng sat on the bench with his brows furrowed.
As is customary, he will rest off the court for at least five minutes in the second quarter.
"Please, you must resist it. In three minutes, I'll be back on the pitch. When the whistle blew in the second quarter, Zhou Zheng seriously asked his teammates: "Come on, brothers!"
Zhou Zheng was ready for a bloody battle, and even if he fainted on the court again, he had no complaints.
But...... Life is always so wonderful, no one can predict what will happen in the next second.
Ginobili took over the offense after the opening of the second quarter, and he was very experienced in the face of Wang Shipeng's defense, and after two consecutive offensive successes, he once again broke through Wang Shipeng outside the three-point line, and then broke into the restricted area, and when he landed on an easy layup, he twisted without warning, and then fell to the ground.
I watched Ginobili clutch his ankles with a painful face.
Zhou Zheng's heart suddenly became a ball, and he was very worried about Ginobili's injury. At the same time, he was afraid that Ginobili would not be able to play again.
When the Argentine team doctor went up to check on Ginobili, the bench of the Chinese team made some happy sounds...... Some people felt that Ginobili's injury was a godsend, and the game finally showed signs of optimism.
Zhou Zheng gave him a blank look: "Is it so important for you to beat Argentina without Ginobili? I hope he can return to the game, and only by defeating 100% Argentina can he lift 100% of the trophy." ”
Freak.
The man said something in his heart.
If he hadn't been with Zhou Zheng for so long, he would have thought that Zhou Zheng was pretending to be high. After all, on this planet, most basketball players, especially professional players, pursue the concept of utilitarian basketball.
Ginobili was eventually helped out of the arena.
When Ginobili left, the Chinese fans who were waiting in front of the TV immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and some even applauded, believing that the probability of the Chinese team's victory had greatly increased.
The same goes for the bench of the Chinese team.
Only Zhou Zheng's stomach is full of 'untimely', which is not the result he wants to see.
After the game continued, the Argentine team played a strong offensive at one point.
However, with Zhou Zheng's play, their stubborn resistance was still swept away.
Argentina, lacking Ginobili, is not only missing its most important attacking weapon, but also the link between inside and outside...... Nocioni was not up to the task.
Argentina began to slide off a cliff in the second half of the second quarter.
In the third quarter, they fought back, but Zhou Zheng's continuous inside impact caught them off guard, and except for Ginobili, there was no other sword in their team that could compete with it.
Not long after the fourth quarter, Argentina switched to the bench.
They announced the end of Argentina's World Championship journey in advance, and Zhou Zheng also hurried off the field after Argentina came on the bench.
He sat on the bench and watched the victory was decided, and his emotions were not high...... Although the World Championships exceeded the previous task. But the result of the tiger and snake tail left his heart empty.
"I'm more concerned about Ginobili now than about the bronze medal. ”
When Zhou Zheng was interviewed, he said frankly: "Our victory was very lucky, and what we defeated was the loss of Manuginobili Argentina. ”
"After the World Championships, I'm going to be in East Asia for about a week, and I still have a lot of business to do. In a week's time, I'll be back in the U.S. and I'll be training for the new season. ”
Zhou Zheng told reporters about his itinerary: "I have had a few frank exchanges with Mr. McMillan, and we have a strong consensus for the new season. I believe the next '06-07 season is going to be a year like no other for Portland. ”
After a brief joint interview, Zhou Zheng left the gymnasium early.
For him, the task of the national team has been completed, and no matter how many Chinese fans are rejoicing about this matter now, he will have to go about his own business next. He got into the rented car of Lin Wanwan and headed for the next trip.
The championship and runner-up battle were decided two hours after the results of the third and fourth place battles, and the Dream Seven team, which had high hopes, lost the world championship again, and the Spaniards completely swept the US team's penalty area under the leadership of Pau Gasol, and the 03 Super Platinum generation paid the price for their youth, although LeBron James and Dwyane Wade jointly contributed many wonderful shots, but ...... Victory was ultimately lost to them.
Runner-up.
This is undoubtedly a huge humiliation for the American team.
From the day the Dream Seven team was formed, their goal was to win the championship.
"I'll make a comeback. Dwyanwade pursed his lips, the mood of the Finals MVP was very low, and he failed to perform the magic of a single savior on the stage of FIBA.
Pau Gasol said heroically there: "Gone are the days when the U.S. team could conquer the world with just a few NBA stars." ”
The game is like that, there are winners and there are losers.
The victors shine, and the losers are sad.
The same is true for the Chinese players, who were so happy to win their first medal in history that they even broke the news of drunkenness in the hotel.
"The reason I'm not excited is because I feel like I can do better. ”
Zhou Zheng replied to the Japanese reporter who interviewed him at the Adidas promotion event: "Also, beating Argentina without Ginobili is really not something to brag about for me. ”
Zhou Zheng is always emphasizing this point, which makes Adidas' PR team seem a little difficult. They originally wanted to use this incident to 'blow the conch' for Zhou Zheng and increase his influence in the Asian region, and even thought of advertising slogans...... The legend of the yellow race.
But Zhou Zheng stopped all the advertising copy, which was not something he could handle.
Although Zhou Zheng's signature shoes have only been on the market for half a year, their global sales have exceeded $250 million...... According to the account-sharing agreement, Zhou Zheng also earned a lot of money, if it wasn't for the high taxes to pay, Zhou Zheng would have paid early.
"Tiger, your financial philosophy should be changing. ”
Merkel, who has been promoted to general manager of Adidas, taught Zhou Zheng with the attitude of a passer-by: "I heard that you recently threw another $5 million into Silicon Valley...... The balance in your current account can't cope with any financial crisis, and the Internet bubble is coming, so you should invest in real estate. ”
Zhou Zheng has also thought about this problem, but he believes in his real dream, and he believes that every fund invested today can be fed back to him ten times or even a hundred times in the future.
"The future will be the Internet age. Zhou Zheng told Merkel: "You should also make some investments in this area." ”
"Don't try to trick me, young man. All my money was put into Wall Street funds, and that's where it sounds. Merkel patted her chest and told Zhou Zheng: "Lehman Brothers is my most trusted financial advisor." ”
Zhou Zheng frowned, feeling a little familiar.
"Tomorrow to South Korea. Merkel patted Zhou Zheng on the shoulder: "Be mentally prepared, your popularity in South Korea is not lower than in Japan." ”
Korea?
Zhou Zheng frowned, his instincts resisting the country.
……
“…… Yesterday morning, international superstar Mr. Zhou Zheng arrived at Seoul International Airport, surrounded by more than 3,000 fans, and it took three hours for the on-site security personnel to get him out of the airport. ”
“… For safety reasons, Adidas has cancelled all outdoor activities. When Zhou Zheng appeared outside the gymnasium in the afternoon, we even found crazy female fans hanging from the trees. It's the craziest crowd I've ever seen, and the Republic of Korea seems to have grown by hundreds of millions of people overnight......"
South Korea's entertainment media are broadcasting Zhou Zheng's news.
"Last night, MBC TV got an opportunity to interview Mr. Zhou Zheng, in which he admitted that he had dated a Korean girl, but he refused to give details. See the detailed report. ”
As soon as the picture turned, Zhou Zheng appeared on TV.
“…… I was very impressed with the airports in South Korea because every time I flew to the United States, I had to stop here for a while. Over time, I've gotten used to the air, so this morning's events didn't bother me, I was just a little surprised that so many people were shouting my name. The last time I came to South Korea for a public trip, there was no one to pick me up at all. I even drove around your busiest places to be with your national team members. ”
Zhou Zheng smiled and spoke.
Then, the reporter said: "...... You mentioned the members of the national team just now, I don't know if you remember Kim Joo-sung? He said during the commentary interview that you are a very infatuated man, and he accompanied you to confess and tried to give a Korean girl a huge surprise. But...... but was ruthlessly rejected. Finally, you draw a beautiful chalk drawing on the ground. He gave us this picture, so are you and her the two couples you drew snuggling in front of a rainbow?"
Zhou Zheng saw the chalk drawing taken by Jin Zhoucheng, and his memories were suddenly pulled back to the dim street lamp.
As far as the eye can see, they are all shadows standing alone and hanging on their own.
"Yes. ”
Zhou Zheng nodded, and then said: "We used to have very good memories, but they are all in the past, I hope she is doing well, and I hope she is not disturbed." Let's not talk about it again. ”
"I've put it down. Thank you. ”
Zhou Zheng replied very calmly.
Then, the reporter asked for the girl's details and asked if he was a trainee of the S.M company.
Zhou Zheng was silent.
Then the interview ended with Lin Wanwan's interference.
When turning off the camera light, the reporter said: "Actually, Korean entertainment companies do not allow trainees to fall in love." So, if it's really her, I think it's understandable. ”
This sentence drilled into Zhou Zheng's ears.
