Chapter 105
(Thank you very much for the tip of Equatorial Iceberg 1888, so that I am really happy for a long time for the sharp knife that this week's results are not very ideal.) In short, as an amateur writing enthusiast, the best way to repay everyone is to write good things with your heart and make the book friends who support Sharp Knife happy!!! )
In today's classes at Duke University, most of the students seem a little absent-minded. The professors, who like to interact with their classmates during class, are very empathetic in compressing the teaching time and giving everyone an early dismissal. Usually, after class, the teacher who is always surrounded by many students who are full of curiosity can only smile helplessly when he looks at the classroom that is empty in an instant. Today is destined to be a day that belongs to basketball.
Duke students hurriedly filled their stomachs and formed a long line at the six entrances to the Cameron Arena. Most of them wore dark blue coats, or wore a T-shirt representing the Duke Blue Devils on top of their tunics.
Among them, a group of black-haired, yellow-skinned Chinese students are very conspicuous. They were uniformly dressed and well organized. The special dark blue shirt has a sun pattern that shines on the chest. With the sun in the background, a handsome and handsome Oriental guy wears the No. 8 jersey of the Duke Blue Devils. This cartoon-style portrait is different for everyone.
That's right! The person on these cards is none other than the Chinese player Sun Yi. At the initiative of Yu Lingfeng, Chinese students at Duke University formed a fan group called the "Sun League", and they are not only fans of the Blue Devils, but also fans of the Chinese compatriots.
This fan group composed of Chinese students has attracted the attention of many students. There are envy, curiosity, incomprehension, disdain, and ignorance, all of which are all in the eyes of the tofu brain classmates. Sun Yi, you must come on! Not only for the Blue Devils, but also for those of us students in a foreign country!

In the Blue Devils locker room at Cameron Arena, known as the 'home of the devil', Sun Yi sitting on a stool is not like most of his teammates listening to music with headphones and shaking his head and talking to himself. He just sat there quietly, rubbing the half-blue bracelet in his hand that had not yet been knitted......
For Duke's upcoming debut, Sun Yi, who has seen many big scenes, has been able to control his inner emotions with ease. In the pre-match preparation meeting, the coach did not mention the strength of the opponent too much, but emphasized the tactics that were focused on training training. Judging by this detail, it was just a training game.
But this innermost thought, as the moment the Blue Devils players walked out of the players' tunnel, was completely evaporated by the frenzied atmosphere of the scene. The crazy cheers and screams created a huge decibel that made Sun Yi have to open his mouth slightly to relieve the pressure on his eardrums. The auditoriums around the arena were filled with a deep blue ocean.
The Chinese guy who once became the owner of the United Center Arena in Chicago was deeply shocked by the scene in front of him. That's right! It's shocking! In Sun Yi's impression, American basketball fans will sit quietly in their seats and watch the game most of the time, and if the game is not exciting, they will even pay attention to the snacks in their hands and their mobile phones......
And now it seems that this scene will only be seen in concerts with super-popular singers, or in important matches of certain football clubs in Europe.
Incredible! It turns out that this is the atmosphere of American college basketball. It's no wonder that superstars who have made a name for themselves in the NBA often reminisce about their college days. Jordan, the god of basketball, said in an interview: The sense of accomplishment of winning the NCAA championship in North Carolina in '82 is completely worthy of any of the two triple championships in the Bulls.
The two teams that are warming up with their shots are treated completely differently. The Blue Devils team playing at home, no matter what position they are in, no matter what way they throw, as long as they throw the ball, they will win bursts of applause. There is also a big junior fritter Nelson who has a fancy slam dunk from time to time, which attracts the screams of countless girls.
On the other side of the court, Columbia University, which came from afar, did not have such a good treatment. The shooting warm-up before the game is originally for the purpose of relaxing the body and adapting to the court, and no player will care about the goal they miss. But the audience at home doesn't see it that way, every shot that pops out of the frame will cause a commotion, and the already weak away team players are even more nervous by the invisible pressure in the court. Even a simple layup will swipe out of the frame in a ghostly way. Seeing this, the coach of the visiting team simply called all the players back to the bench, otherwise he would have to collapse without a fight before the game officially started. Cameron Arena, the famous 'home of the devil' in the United States, really lives up to its name.
Sun Yi, who finished the warm-up, stood on the sidelines with his hands on his hips, enjoying the charming home atmosphere. In the center of the auditorium, there was a phalanx of hundreds of Blue Devils die-hard fans, many of whom painted their shirtless tops in Duke Blue. And those girls turned their faces that they usually cared for into blue flowers.
Hey! Sun Yi, who has good eyesight, found that in the fan stands behind the basket on the south side, there were many fans holding cartoon portraits of themselves. He took a step and walked over curiously.
"Sun Yi, come on!"
"Fight hard, fight for our Chinese students!"
“……”
Countless words of encouragement were shouted from the mouths of these classmates who were of the same root and race as themselves. The tofu brain senior closest to the court helped the frame on the bridge of his nose, and said to Sun Yi with a smile: "Don't listen to their blind coaxing, concentrate on playing, believe in yourself, we are your strong backing."
"That's right! Sun Yi, you are the best player I have ever seen. I saw that Wang Dashao, who had an overly drunk face, didn't know when he got into the organization, and this standard ABC still seems to have a Chinese heart.
Changkong and the Chinese female student fairy tale who met in the bar also came to the scene, watching the girl sitting next to Changkong who was at a loss with a sweet face, Sun Yi squeezed his eyes at each other with a clear face. It made the guy even more embarrassed, and even his own hands knew where to put them.
Looking at these familiar and friendly faces, Sun Yi, who was full of fighting spirit and confidence, raised his clenched fist, "Don't worry, everyone." I'm waiting for you to slap yourself in the game, haha! ”
Sun Yi, who returned to the bench, was immediately surrounded by many teammates. "Sun, did you hear Thomas say that those are the fans who flew in from Chicago to cheer you on?" Pagliuca, the team's 'lubricant' senior student, pointed to the fans holding up Sun Yi's portrait and asked curiously.
"Oh no. Those are Chinese students at Duke University. ”
"Wow! I heard that Chinese girls are very considerate and gentle, can you introduce me to one? Henderson smirked lewdly.
"Get out! Rotten your bad idea in your stomach. ”
