With the NCAA 64 round of which the United States is in full swing. On the west coast of the Pacific Ocean, the sports media of the ancient Eastern powers, through their own channels, have finally figured out all the experiences of the most popular college basketball player in the United States since high school.

In fact, many domestic sports media practitioners have long noticed the Chinese guy in the hot post of Wanlou in a professional basketball forum. It is in the nature of journalists to create focus and gimmicks. But this time, they invariably chose to be cautious and low-key. While collecting all the reports of the media on the other side of the strait about the Chinese player, they used their respective relationships to secretly dig into the child's past experience in the United States.

More than a month of intelligence gathering and investigation is long enough for the news circles. During this period, whether it is the most influential sports newspaper in China or the more professional basketball newspaper, etc., they have not reported on the college player who has never worn the Chinese team jersey, but in the eyes of Internet fans, he has not lost to any famous national player.

The silence before the storm was finally broken after Duke lost to defending champion University of Florida......

The reports of major sports media in the United States on this NCAA elite semi-final match have been reprinted by their counterparts on the other side of the ocean who have been preparing for a long time. Taking advantage of this style, they also vividly introduced the series of honors and achievements achieved by the Chinese player with the dream of basketball in the United States to many fans who are accustomed to reading newspapers for the first time through traditional reporting methods. The illustration, which has been quoted by many media, has made countless Chinese fans instantly like the somewhat melancholy and lonely back in the painting......

Sun Yi, a basketball boy who dreams of one day wearing the national team jersey and playing for the country, has finally been recognized and accepted by the people who love basketball in this country through his unremitting efforts and struggles......

In Shencheng, in the brand-new office building of a materials research institute, Sun Wenyuan, who has returned to China for more than a year, is recording various data with his assistants in the laboratory where the equipment has just been replaced......

"Sun Gong, will you be free here?" A middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes tiptoed to Sun Wenyuan, who was concentrating on comparing the test parameters, and asked softly with some flattery.

"Oh, Director Wang. Just did an experiment, and this is analyzing the data, what's the matter with you? The middle-aged man in front of him, who was a little chubby, was the director of the office of the institute. Although Sun Wenyuan didn't like the other party's bureaucratic style on weekdays, he still replied very politely.

Tut! Tut! It's true that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the sons of rats will make holes. Look at Sun Gong, not only does he have real talent and learning, he is a leading figure in scientific research in the institute, and even his son who is studying in the United States has become a celebrity. No, there are a bunch of reporters outside, all asking for interviews by name. Look at the unsuccessful son in his own family, who doesn't want to make progress all day long and is idle, why is the gap between this person and people so big!

Facing a bunch of reporters armed with 'long guns and short cannons', Sun Wenyuan, who was wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, was completely blindfolded. Why, my experiments don't seem to have such an impact......

"Hello, Mr. Sun. I am a reporter from the Sports Daily, and I would like to confirm to you first, is your son Sun Yi studying at Duke University in the United States? ”

Sun Yi, what's wrong with my son? A hint of foreboding suddenly overshadowed him.

Sun Wenyuan, who sensed that something was wrong with the situation, trembled and took the newspaper faxed from the United States by a reporter. No, Xiao Yi must be fine! When he read the report at a glance, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Damn, one by one can't speak with their mouths open, and the old man has a false alarm!

"Mr. Sun, is that player in the picture your son?"

"That's right, it's my son."

"May I ask what year Sun Yi went to the United States to develop?"

"Let me think about it, it should be ...... in '02"

……

At the same time, Coach Li, who has retired, is surrounded by a group of pervasive media reporters in his home. But the gray-haired old man enjoyed the atmosphere very much.

"Sun Yi's kid was originally practicing football, but then he suddenly grew a lot of ......"

……

Younas. Kazlaudskas, the Lithuanian basketball coach nicknamed 'Kaiser', is anxiously waiting in his office, accompanied by the team's interpreter, to co-control the strongest team in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team.

Hu Jiashi, deputy leader of the Chinese 08 Olympic men's basketball team. This sinner who will lose the Chinese men's basketball team in the future has won the trust and attention of the current head of the Basketball Association. It is very likely that after the Olympic Games in the capital, he will get a good position in the basketball sports management center.

With the door open, it was pushed open from the outside. A middle-aged man with a capable face walked into the office. "Lao You, I'm sorry, I was a little delayed just now. You're in such a hurry to find me, what's the matter? "The current Director Hu obviously does not have the momentum of the 'actual controller' of the Chinese men's basketball team in the future, especially in the face of the European coach Younas, who was hired by the Basketball Association with a high salary.

Through the translator's relay, Director Hu quickly understood the other party's intention. He didn't rush to reply, but slowly and methodically made the other party a cup of good Longjing tea.

The Lithuanian man, who is already in his 50s, has inherited the direct and straightforward work style of the people of the former Soviet Union. After the Athens Olympics, the 'Caesar', who replaced the American 'Silver Fox' Harris as the head coach of the Chinese men's basketball team, is very unaccustomed to the unhurried style of the Orientals, especially the 'smiling tiger' Hu deputy leader in front of him.

"Lao You, the player you just talked about, many media have been vying to report it in the past few days, and I have heard about it." I've heard of it, hehe! This is the professional quality of the Chinese men's basketball team leader. "No matter what the media says, I have a lot of faith in your vision. But! After Deputy Team Leader Hu affirmed the other party, his tone immediately took an obvious turn. This time I have some doubts, although the kid named Sun Yi was blown up to the gods, he didn't even have the experience of a professional game after all. If you take the liberty of recruiting him into the national team, I'm afraid the above will not approve it. ”

"Hu, with my years of experience in basketball, that kid is definitely the most needed talent for the current Chinese team. Now, your home country is racing against time to prepare for the world's sporting event in a year's time. The Chinese men's basketball team, which has NBA superstar Yao Ming, is the focus of attention of the people of the whole country. If the Chinese men's basketball team can make a breakthrough in this event, I think such a result will be a good thing for you and your superiors. "Years of coaching experience in China have taught this Lithuanian coach to deal with Orientals in a more 'intelligent' way.

Younas's words made Deputy Team Leader Hu, who was full of desire to go further, hesitate. He knows very well that the Chinese men's basketball team has made great progress in recent years under the leadership of the old man in front of him. The other party's professional basketball knowledge made this typical Chinese bureaucrat very admirable. But this is not a simple matter, after all, the college player named Sun Yi is completely a 'product' outside the system. Before the national team, there was no such precedent at all. However, the bright prospects depicted by the other party put Deputy Leader Hu in a dilemma for a while.

After 'thoughtful' thinking, the middle-aged man sitting behind the desk finally spoke: "Lao You, I will immediately report this matter to the senior management of the Basketball Association. Still, you should know that it takes time. I can't make any promises to you about this matter, but in order for Chinese basketball to have better results, I will do my best to meet your requirements. ”

"Okay, Hu, I'll always look forward to your good news, I hope it won't be too long." Younas is very satisfied with the results of this exchange, because in the past few years of getting along with Deputy Team Leader Hu, he has already learned enough about the other party's slippery and hands-free character. But this ambitious Chinese official also has the merit of doing his best to fulfill his promises as long as he has made them.

In fact, Sun Yi entered the field of vision of the European coach 'Caesar', but in just three months.

In December 2006, Younas, who was about to lead the Chinese men's basketball team to train overseas, suddenly received a mobile hard drive claiming to be brought by a staff member of the Basketball Association before leaving. The young man, who looked very young, told him through an interpreter that the players in the video were the outside talents he had been looking for for for this Chinese men's basketball team. At first, he didn't take the other party's words to heart. But when the old man finished the training mission of the national team, he was ready to go back to his hometown in Lithuania the night before his vacation. Suddenly remembered the dusty mobile hard drive on the desk, and he simply looked at it on his computer when he had nothing to do......

Damn it! The staff of this national basketball association are all damned! Oh, except for the guy who sent the hard drive. The young player wearing the No. 8 jersey in the video made the eyes of the well-informed European 'Caesar' shine.

The old man shook his head in bewilderment, such a brilliant basketball player was ignored by the bureaucrats of the Basketball Association. I really don't know whether to describe them as stupid or ****.

Since April 2005, Younas has been replaced by Li Yuanwei, who was then the head of the basketball sports management center (in fact, Mr. Li stepped down after the Olympics. After the sharp knife didn't want this respectable old man to get into this mess of sewage), he began to carry out drastic reforms to the aging age structure of the Chinese men's basketball team. In addition to the two pillars of the inner line, Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi, a group of Mesozoic players led by Wang Shipeng and Zhu Fangyu have gradually become the backbone of the national men's basketball team. But what he is most commendable about is the discovery and use of young players, who are extremely bold and sophisticated.

When assisting Harris as an assistant coach, Yi Jianlian, who rose to prominence in the CBA league, only played a measly 3 minutes per game. And now this young inside player from Guangdong Province has become the main player of the national team this year.

There are also young players Sun Yue and Chen Jianghua, who he boldly used at the 06 World Championships in Japan, and they all played well. It can be said that if it were not for Younas's strong recommendation, Sun Yue, who was far away from the American Olympic God Team, would probably have a much darker trajectory in his life.

Alas! Hopefully, this young player with unlimited potential will not be buried by the strange competitive system in this country......

……

"Brother Liu, the dog that just came out of the cage ignores the buns and puts them on the table for you, hurry up and eat them while it's hot!"

"Howler! Enron, excuse me. ”

"It's okay, you're polite to me!"

……

"Aunt Zhao, I'll contact you about your girl's schooling. Next semester, just go and sign up! ”

"Oops! Nong told you that you did Auntie a great favor! ”

"Hey! What a big deal, you can squeak at any time in the future! ”

"Hey! Good drip, drip! ”

……

"Minister Lu, I have prepared today's research draft for you, you can take a look at it twice when you have time, and I will take it back and change it if it is not suitable."

"Hmmm! Xiao An, your recent work enthusiasm is very good, and the eyes of the masses are bright. Even Director Xin publicly praised you at yesterday's party committee. No, he just called me and asked you to visit his office. ”

……

Since entering 2007, the small staff of the technical department who used to eat and wait for death all day long suddenly seems to have changed as if he was a different person. Not only can he dutifully complete the tasks assigned by his superiors, but also turn the usually indifferent eyes of countless colleagues into kind. His own 'positive change' and deep background in the capital have made this once stunned young man become a 'five good youth' praised by everyone in the basketball management center.

Dangdang! There was a moderate knock on the door, so that the leader of the basket tube center finally put down the newspaper in his hand.

"Xiao An, come here! Come on, come on, sit! The young man's family background forced Director Xin to brace himself and make himself look more like a kind elder.

"Director, you called me?" An Ran was not polite in the face of the other party's invitation, but he had a very good grasp of his sitting posture. He sat down with no big prick or sat down cautiously next to the edge of his chair.

The old fritters who have been in the officialdom for many years will naturally not miss every move of the young man in front of him. Not bad, not bad. Sure enough, it didn't make me look away, young, motivated, and most importantly, with a prominent family background.

"In the past few days, our basketball center has been unsettled and rising! Here! How could this college student named Sun Yi suddenly be blown into the sky by those ignorant media. Director Xin's words, An Ran's heart was as clear as a mirror. The previous 'wave' refers to the fact that when Yi Jianlian reached a salary distribution agreement with the team and the basketball management center and publicly announced that he would participate in this year's NBA draft in June, many NBA team managers called and wrote to ask about the real age of this young Chinese player.

In fact, the phenomenon of modifying the age to fight the big and the small is already an open secret in the Chinese sports circle. But those serious Yankees insisted on asking the basketball management center to issue a certificate or make a public statement to ensure that the information reported by Yi Jianlian was true and valid. Damn, we're not the household registration management department here, so let's give you a certificate of which door to open. However, the hands are short, and the mouth is soft. Since you have to share people's wages, you have to bear the responsibility of your part.

This troublesome matter is exactly what Director Xin said about the previous 'wave'.
