Chapter 41: Taeyeon, Are You Ready?
The match between the Chinese team and Puerto Rico was defined as ugly by countless media at home and abroad, and T-NT even did a half-episode to discuss the match, and they finally came to the conclusion that it was ...... It was an out-of-control, irregular sanda match, and after their detailed statistics, the two sides made more than 45 small moves on the court, of which there were 6 conflicts.

"The referee on duty has to take responsibility for this game, and if he had blown the penalty harshly at the beginning, then the brawl that followed would not have happened. Actually, I think the Chinese player is the victim, and I agree with Tiger that he deserves ****, and that Puerto Rican center should be banned for life, and all his actions on the court are aimed at hurting the opponent. ”
Charles Barkley gave Zhou Zheng support on the other side of the ocean.
In fact, most of the public opinion in the media punished Ramos harshly, and Mock thought it was excusable.
Public opinion has put a lot of pressure on FIBA. In the end, their raised hands fell gently.
Mock was fined 10,000 yuan and banned for one game.
Ramos was fined $5,000 and banned for five games...... If there were no surprises, his World Championship journey was over.
The Chinese team is very satisfied with such a punishment.
And because of Moke's matter, the heat of the things surrounding Zhou Zheng began to decline, and the General Administration of Sports quietly announced that Xie Lanlong was under investigation...... This matter gradually dived to the bottom, but the undercurrent became stronger and stronger. Xie Lanlong has been found to have several bribery cases for manipulating the game, and what awaits him may not only be party discipline, but also legal accountability.
The group stage of the World Championships is full, and the fourth game of the Chinese team is coming soon, and Senegal is standing opposite the Chinese team.
Senegal are the weakest team in Group D.
They themselves have a clear understanding of this.
So, the game was played in harmony. Similar to a university student hitting a middle school student, it didn't take long for Senegal to disarm and surrender.
In the end, the Chinese team won Senegal 102-66, and Zhou Zheng scored 18 points, 12 assists, 6 rebounds and 7 steals...... At one point, Senegal's defenders were unable to hold the ball past half the pitch.
This is something that Chinese fans are particularly proud of...... Jiangshan took turns to sit, and finally it was the turn of the Chinese team to press the opponent, and I used to be terrified when I watched the Chinese defenders dribble, but now... On the contrary, he took care of his opponent.
"The Chinese team is a dark horse. ”
Three wins in four games brought the Chinese team's record to the second place in Group D, and everyone thought that the Chinese team without Yao Shu might be at the end of Group D, but now Zhou Zheng perfectly filled the vacancy of Yao Shu's absence, and also led the Chinese team to play a new system.
"The Chinese team will be the biggest spoiler at this year's World Championships. ”
The media is basically conclusive. And Zhou Zheng, who is on the steals and assists lists, is also considered to have locked in the best point guard in this year's World Championships.
"The results in the group stage are just a ticket, and the knockout stage is the stage where the final position is determined. ”
Zhou Zheng always keeps a clear brain. After a brief chat with reporters, he threw himself into active training and began to prepare for the showdown with the last group stage opponent, Slovenia.
Slovenia has always been a powerhouse in Europe, and they were once the hegemon of world basketball before they split into several countries with Serbia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Serbia and Montenegro. In fact, if it weren't for the formidable former Yugoslavia, the United States might not have formed a dream team to conquer the world.
Slovenia has 5 players playing in the NBA. These include Nakba, who plays for the New Orleans Hornets, and starting center Nesterovic and Benno Youdri for the San Antonio Spurs. There are also Charlotte Bobcats' Blazek and Los Angeles Lakers' Vujasic.
In addition, Lobeck, a rising star who shone at last year's European Championships, will also cause a lot of trouble for the Chinese team.
"It's not a good game. Sani's words were repeated three times to Zhou Zheng.
Of course, Zhou Zheng knows that the game is not easy to play, but the current situation is that he must win. Finishing second in the group stage will meet Lithuania in the group stage, and once they finish third, then... The match in the quarterfinals will be against Turkey.
Compared to the two teams, the Chinese team would rather meet Lithuania. Moreover, as soon as Lithuania is eliminated, then the opponent in the quarterfinals will become Greece.
This is the promotion route that Zhou Zheng planned in his heart.
In the last domestic game, Greece was very unconvinced, and even made a big statement: "The Chinese team is very similar to the English football team, they are the kings of the group stage." ”
Greece brought the feud on the football field to the basketball court, and Spanoulis satirized the two countries with one sentence.
This has sparked strong dissatisfaction among British football fans and Chinese basketball fans, and all kinds of scolding on the street.
They all hope that Zhou Zheng can lead the Chinese team to clean up the Greek team.
Zhou Zheng did not make any response in the media, but within the team, he has made it clear that he is 'duty-bound' and will definitely let Greece know that 'your uncle is always your uncle'.
Zhou Zheng is very confident in defeating Greece, although there was a fluke in the warm-up match of the Chinese team last time, but at that time the team was just running-in, and... The most important thing is that Zhou Zheng at that time had not evolved to this extent. Now Zhou Zheng's offensive ability is far better than at the beginning, and... His physical confrontation is stronger, and the days when Papalukas can hold Zhou Zheng with two shoulders are gone.
When Zhou Zheng walked into the Hokkaido Stadium for the last time for the final group stage match, a plane from Seoul, South Korea, arrived safely at Narita Airport in Tokyo, Japan.
The waiting hall of the airport was already full of cheers and screams, and the sound exceeded Zhou Zheng's visit.
They held aloft TVXQ signs and expressed their love for 'Oba' with their high-pitched voices.
Among the people who traveled with TVXQ were five young and beautiful girls, and they were not well-known, so no one noticed them, and there were even fans shouting to stay away from our Oba.
This kind of discrimination makes Taeyeon very angry, and she pouts, "These Japanese women are really annoying." ”
Jessica, on the other hand, seemed very happy, she was not upset by the fan attacks of the 'seniors'. From the moment she stepped onto the plane, she had a big smile on her face. Being able to follow TVXQ to Japan this time is the result of her hard work. She trained hard for two months, and finally met the requirements of the chairman, and she could finally become one of the backup dancers for the concert.
"Taeyeon, are you ready? We're finally having a happy holiday. ”
Jessica said brightly to Taeyeon.
Taeyeon looked dejected: "I can't be happier, although stepping on the stage of the Dome is a dream that I have been pursuing, but ...... Who would notice a bunch of backup dancers? Those Japanese fans should think we're blocking their view. ”
"It's okay, I'll take you to relax before the concert. ”
"Hot springs?"
"No, watch a basketball game. Jessica raised an eyebrow excitedly.

[Alas, I was suddenly called to something during the day, and it was not easy to shirk it, so I stayed up late to make up for everyone. Wait a minute, there's another chapter. 】
