Chapter 115: Relatives from the country
The Lakers pulled the overall score to a 2-2 draw to the delight of Los Angeles fans, and the team's offensive firepower in Game 4 amazed everyone. The Bulls were overly wary of Liu's three-point shooting and gave the rest of the Lakers a lot of opportunities, and Liu Han did an excellent job of organizing the offense and controlling the tempo, and his maturity and consistency amazed all basketball commentators.
A special sports commentator for the Los Angeles Times commented on Liu Han after the game: "This is a player with a 20-year-old body, 30-year-old ball skills and 40-year-old mental age, his excellence cannot be judged only by scoring, he makes the Lakers' offense as gorgeous as Christmas fireworks, in this game we see a mature, irresistible king team, and Liu, this young man who is just 20 years old, he is about to change the existing basketball face, he makes basketball return to skills, let us see that it is no longer a hand-to-hand game, I'm sure after this Finals, all teams will focus on the three-point shot. All the high school students and college players, you need to practice your three-point shooting in the future, and the young people who are not physically gifted have a new way out, and when your three-point shot can be as accurate as Liu's, all the teams will rush to get you. Although as a commentator in the mainstream media in Los Angeles, it is inevitable that the Lakers and Liu Han will be pursued, but the emergence of Liu Han does make the NBA team pay more attention to the importance of three-point shooting, even the Bulls who swept the league were beaten by the Lakers' offense, basketball needs more people to participate, not just the game of "long man", although a strong body is needed in the NBA to fight, but Liu Han did find a way out for many players.
The 18-point fiasco made Jordan himself a little annoyed, the team actually played well in the game, but it still couldn't prevent the Lakers' offense, Liu Han played too big a role, single defense Liu Han, except for Jordan can play a little role, others can hardly prevent it, Liu Han's pass is very good, as long as the other players of the Lakers team do not drop the chain to attack, it can definitely ensure a high success rate.
However, Jordan was still very hard-mouthed when he was interviewed by the media.
"Liu is very good, he is the best player in recent years, but he can't beat the Bulls, the final championship will be mine, and he will think about the championship when I retire."
On June 8, 97, the Lakers welcomed a group of guests from across the ocean, for CCTV to interview Liu Han and film and report on the Lakers Lakers management raised their hands to welcome, although the country on the other side of the Pacific is not very good now, but the thought of the population of more than a billion there makes the Lakers management excited, not much, as long as one percent of the population becomes Lakers fans, it is tens of millions, what a hidden interest it will be, If developed well, the Lakers may be able to earn tens of millions of dollars a year from there.
When Liu Han saw Zhao Chengkai for the first time, he had a good impression of this reporter, who was tall compared to ordinary people, because Liu Han saw the care of relatives in Zhao Chengkai's eyes.
"Liu Han, hello, I'm CCTV reporter Zhao Chengkai, I hope to be able to make a special program for you, if we can, we will follow you for a few days, you won't mind, right?" Zhao Chengkai did not say his relationship with Liu Han in front of everyone, he planned to communicate with Liu Han in private, in fact, Zhao Chengkai was worried that Liu Han would refuse to recognize him, because after all, his uncle had ignored it for 20 years, and he couldn't say anything.
"I don't mind, I don't mind, I'm so happy to see my friends from the motherland, it's too late to welcome." After Liu Han finished speaking, he touched his head a little embarrassed, accustomed to the gaze of a circle of foreigners around him, and felt a little embarrassed by the reporters from the motherland.
"It's good if you don't mind, haha, seriously, you've brought glory to our country, and everyone didn't expect you to be so powerful. How's that, are you confident of winning the championship? Zhao Chengkai spoke in a tone like a big brother, and did not give Liu Han a feeling of alienation.
"Well, it's okay, as long as nothing happens, I'm sure we can win the championship." Speaking of the game, Liu Han's expression changed, and the young man who looked a little shy showed a confident light on his face.
"That's good, we're waiting for you to get a championship for everyone. Oh, this is Section Chief Zhang and Director Guo of the Basketball Association, they are here this time to discuss with you about joining the national team. Zhao Chengkai mentioned the purpose of the Basketball Association.
"Oh, Xiao Liu, it's really amazing, you have won glory for us Chinese, I hope you will make persistent efforts to win the championship in the future." The people of the Basketball Association did not put forward the requirements for Liu Han at the beginning, the current occasion is not suitable, and there are CCTV people, their requirements are really a bit excessive, and the people of the Basketball Association don't want CCTV people to see jokes, and when they came, the leader reminded the two of them, this time CCTV led the reporter Zhao Chengkai has a deputy minister's father, and they don't dare to put on too much show.
After negotiations with the Lakers management, the CCTV team and the basketball association will participate in the rest of the game with the Lakers.
On the special plane to Chicago, Zhao Chengkai took the initiative to ask to have a separate chat with Liu Han.
"Xiao Liu, I'm a few years older than you, don't you mind calling you Xiao Liu?"
"Don't mind, Reporter Zhao, do you want to talk to me about something?" Liu Han felt that Zhao Chengkai seemed to have something to say to him.
"That's the case, let me introduce myself first, my name is Zhao Chengkai, my father's name is Zhao Weidong, and I also have an aunt named Zhao Weihong......"
"Ah, you mean, Zhao Weihong is your aunt?" After Liu Han saw Zhao Xueli, he knew that his mother's name was originally Zhao Weihong, and his grandmother kept talking about Honghong when she was leaving.
"Yes, I am your cousin, and your mother Zhao Weihong is my grandfather's youngest daughter." Zhao Chengkai talked about his relationship with Liu Han, and he felt that Liu Han didn't look like a young man who was too extreme.
"Grandma never told me about the past, and I saw ...... She later found out that I still had relatives around. ”
"Who are you seeing?" Liu Han's words made Zhao Chengkai a little confused, he didn't understand what Liu Han meant.
"It's Zhao Xueli, your aunt, she came to me, oh, she changed her name to Zhao Xueli." Liu Han didn't hide anything from Zhao Chengkai.
"Have you seen your mother? Where is she now? She has not been in contact with her family since she came to the United States. Zhao Chengkai was very happy when he heard Liu Han's words, this was really unexpected, but he didn't expect to find his aunt directly.
"Oh, it was her son who had leukemia and wanted me to donate bone marrow, so I donated." Liu Han felt that this was normal, but he didn't expect that Zhao Chengkai's eyes would turn red when he finished speaking.
"Cousin, our Zhao family is sorry for you, no matter what happened before, we will never let you be wronged again in the future." Zhao Chengkai felt that Liu Han was really ...... Too honest.
"It's nothing, although I haven't seen it for twenty years, but I have a grandmother, my grandmother was very good to me when I was a child, and I know that my father is sorry for her, and she should be gone, I won't be angry." Liu Han seemed very normal, and did not show any excitement. Grandma never said anything bad about her mother, she just said that their Liu family was sorry for Honghong and wanted Liu Han to be filial in the future.
Zhao Chengkai looked at this young face whose face was somewhat similar to his father and aunt and was silent, he originally thought that Liu Han would recognize him after a more exciting confrontation, but Liu Han's performance made Zhao Chengkai very moved, this is a young man who treats people sincerely, such a person should not be wronged.
