Because of his first time participating in the national training team, Ye Si has a busy schedule this summer.

From July 6 to July 11, Ye Si will train with the national team in Las Vegas.

After a short five-day training camp with the national team, in the summer league in Las Vegas, Yes led the national team to defeat the Grizzlies, Kings, Cavaliers, Grizzlies and Celtics in succession, and then temporarily left the national team.

After the national training team completes the training camp in the United States, it will be disbanded and will gather again to play the Starkovic Cup and the Asian Championship half a month later.

After the disbandment of the national training team, Ye Si did not get a chance to rest, and from July 12 to July 25, Ye Si needed to cooperate with 'Yes Sports' for a trip to China.

According to Bezos and Amazon's plan, Yes Sports' trip to China this year is very important.

Bezos will personally lead the team.

Yese will be in charge of the trip to China in July, and Roy will be in charge of August.

This year's trip to China was quite arduous for Yes Sports and Roy.

After all, compared to the number of stars in Nike, Yes Sports has two cards that Yes and Roy can handle.

Now Yes Sports is very popular in China, and the Chinese market has become the most important market for Yes Sports outside of the United States.

It's a market that's going to beat Nike no matter what.

Bezos also knew that it was indeed too onerous to put a big market like China in charge of Ye Si and Roy.

Moreover, it is not conducive to the development of markets in other Asian countries, Ye Si and Roy have been in China for too long to leave, and they cannot go to other markets.

So Bezos has been looking for a third star in Yes Sports.

Yes knew that Bezos had contacted Yao Ming, but the seven-year, 50 million contract signed by Yao Ming and Reebok in 2003 did not expire until 2010.

Yao Ming didn't think about terminating the contract with Reebok now.

Yao Ming's Reebok sneaker sales are very average, after all, the big ones don't sell shoes, and the peak O'Neal's sneakers don't sell much.

But what Bezos wants is not sales, but the influence of Yes Sports in China.

After failing to sign Yao Ming, Bezos set his sights on Maddie, who is very popular in Chinese, but Maddie signed a lifetime contract with Adidas.

Bezos's positioning of the third star is mainly to have a great influence in China now or in the future.

In order to open up the Chinese market.

So the target has been on China's two home teams, the SuperSonics and the Rockets.

Except for Ye Si, the supersonic people in China are very famous, but they are all notoriety.

But the stars of the Rockets are not so easy to dig.

This made Bezos quite a headache as well.

"Yes, do you have the right person?"

"Durant."

“……”

"Yes, I'm serious."

"I'm serious too."

When Durant announced his participation in the draft, he was a favorite in the sneaker market, and in the NCAA, Durant's style of play is quite beautiful and chic, which is a good seedling that can sell shoes.

Nike and Adidas have both offered Durant shoe contracts.

In the end, Durant rejected Adidas and reached a 7-year 90 million contract agreement with Nike.

But after Durant went head-to-head with him and didn't score a point, under the crazy look of the media, Nike tore up the rookie signing contract second only to James regardless of its image.

After Nike tore up the contract of intent to do so, Adidas had no interest in Durant anymore.

Durant, who was originally the sweetheart of the sneaker market in the future, was instantly ignored.

And this is also an important reason why Durant gave up on himself in Seattle training camp.

Being looked down upon and abandoned by others, the media and fans are too much to say.

But Nike told him with real action and money that he was 'down'.

He is no longer the proud son of the sky who has been in the limelight.

At that time, the resentful Durant also fired his agent, Aaron Goodwin, who was also James's former agent.

Aaron Goodwin was fired by James because his twin brother had an affair with James' mom.

Now he has inexplicably endured Durant's resentment and has been fired, which can be regarded as unlucky.

Durant's current agent is Dean Simmons.

This is not a thread drawn by Yes.

He would never pimp for their Garfield Five Tigers agency.

Durant, as the leader of the NBA, although he hasn't played a game yet, he is full of world malice.

But the eye of the list is the eye of the list, the infamy is all false, but the money is real, and the rookie contract is close to 20 million for 4 years.

That's a lot of money.

Durant chose Dean Simmons after interviewing a bunch of agents.

According to Simmons, other agents are teaching Durant how to do it during interviews.

Only he's listening to Durant.

"KD is a very sensitive and delicate person, and he craves to be respected."

"KD is very awkward, but even more awkward people, I have been with them for so many years, of course there is no problem in getting KD!"

This ball!

Bezos couldn't understand why Yes would recommend a player with a 'cauldron on his back'.

But he eventually agreed.

He always respected Yes's opinion.

Just like the respect that Yes had for him.

Ye Si's behavior of buying Amazon shares as long as he has a little spare money in his hands is very useful.

Yes's boss is Bill Gates, and Yes doesn't buy Microsoft to buy his Amazon, which is very comfortable.

Besides, since Yes is so optimistic about Durant, then Durant should not be so bad.

Yes's vision should be trustworthy, right?

Right?

Bezos is not so confident, because the bunch of 'Jordan' and 'Magic' who are favored by Yes have 'fallen' in the summer league.

The sound of the bottles breaking one by one was cruel and beautiful.

However, Durant is not a 'Jordan' or 'Magic', he is just a combination of Rudy Gay and Novak.

If Durant does show Rudy Gay's potential and quality one day in Seattle, Yes Sports won't lose out on signing him.

Rudy Gay's potential and strength, playing on Yes' side, has a chance to be an All-Star.

It can also gain a huge influence in China.

I'm afraid that Durant won't reach the height of Rudy Gay.

Anyway, since Yes supports signing Durant, let's sign it, and the current Durant won't be worth much anyway.

"Jeff, wait a minute."

"Yes, is there anything else you want to command?"

"Don't offer Durant a contract that is less than Nike's 7-year, 90 million."

“……”

Bezos had a look on his face if you were kidding me.

"He won't sign for anything less than this contract."

The expression on Bezos' face has turned incredulous.

A 'pot of this world' that has been abandoned by the world, can it still be so willful and stubborn?

"KD, Yes Sports wants to sign you for a sneaker contract!"

Yes Sports?

Sneaker contracts?

And now someone is still handing him a sneaker contract.

Originally, according to his plan, he was going to reject Nike once after he hit his worth, and it didn't matter who he signed with, but he must reject Nike once.

He hasn't played it yet, so why did this contract come about?

"Help me refuse."

"Refusal? KD: Are you crazy? That's a 7-year, 91 million contract! ”

"How much?!"

"91 million in 7 years!"

“……”

After Dean Simmons repeated it, the basketball in Durant's hand was dropped.

Yes Sports ......

Yes……

The expression on Durant's face was constantly changing.

The first stop of Ye Si's trip to China was his hometown of Modu.

On July 13, 2007, Beijing time, when Ye Si came out of the airport, the airport was already crowded with people.

Ye Si's return to China this time is mainly to promote 'Yes Sports'.

He wanted to keep a low profile, but he couldn't keep it low.

I had dinner with my parents on July 13, and Ye Si went out with Xiaoyao the next day.

Xiao Yao is now on summer vacation, and the students of Modu Drama Academy usually go out to film during the summer vacation.

Xiao Yao is not interested in filming in the summer vacation, and is very interested in following Ye Si on his trip to China.

Xiao Yao not only has to follow Ye Si to China, but also to follow him to play in the Asian Championships.

And it's not herself, she also brought her 'good sister' Lin Qiuyi.

Ye Sizhen didn't know that the two would become 'good sisters' after returning from the United States.

On July 14th, Ye Si took Tang Xiaoyao and Lin Qiuyi to run all the trips in the magic capital during the day, and then accepted an exclusive interview with CCTV in the evening.

CCTV attaches great importance to this interview, when Ye Si and Tang Xiaoyao Lin Qiuyi came to the hotel, the reporters who interviewed him in addition to the familiar Wang Han also included Yang Huahua, Wang Yuanyuan, and Su Skirt.

This joint interview led by CCTV, supplemented by Sports Weekly and Basketball Herald, is the largest interview in Yes's career.

He had never been interviewed on such a large scale before, either in the United States or in China.

It's not that there are no journalists and media willing to interview him, but he has never given these media a chance before.

Therefore, this joint visit, although the main interviews are Wang Han, Yang Huahua, Wang Yuanyuan and Su Skirt and others.

But there are also a bunch of American media that follow Bezos on the periphery, and they don't have access, but they can watch from the sidelines.

The American reporters sitting on the periphery looked at Wang Han, Yang Huahua, Wang Yuanyuan, Su Skirt and others who were sitting opposite Ye Si, and their faces were full of envy.

"First of all, congratulations to Yes, you had an epic season last season."

"Thank you, but it's not epic, it's legendary."

Ye Si replied earnestly.

“……”

Wang Han, who asked the question, and Yang Huahua and others next to him seemed to have a flock of crows flying over their heads.

Even Tang Xiaoyao, who was watching from the side, now looked like he didn't know what to say.

Is there a difference between epic and legendary?

Is there a difference?!

Don't you have to emphasize that you can't just say thank you and be done?

On the contrary, Lin Qiuyi was not surprised at all.

I'm used to it.

He's always been a chatterbox.

"Yes, let's talk about this year's draft, it is rumored that the SuperSonics used the list to sign Durant at your behest? Why? Some say it's because he's an enlarged version of Rondo? ”

"You can say the same thing."

"Why? Why do you have a soft spot for a player of Rondo's size? ”

"Hard enough and long enough."

"Are the bones hard and the arms long?"

"Yes."

"Then do you want Yi Jianlian?"

"I want to."

"Then why not choose?"

"The management of other teams is not blind, and they can't be selected with the 46th pick in the second round."

"Compared with Yi Jianlian, are you more optimistic about Durant?"

"Yes."

"But we've also seen it now, not only us, but even the expert media in the United States look down on Durant, why do you have so much confidence in Durant?"

"Everybody can have their own standards, I respect your standards, you can use your standards to look at Durant, Rondo and Millsap, and I can do too."

"Even if, as you said, according to your standards, with your full training, Durant, Rondo, and Millsap may eventually become talents, but how much cost, how much time, five years? Or ten years? How many years have you been in your career? Don't you know all of this? ”

"Yes."

"At the end of the day, you still want to save Durant!"

"They don't need me to save them."

Is it so intense?

Tang Xiaoyao, Lin Qiuyi, and the American reporters next to them were stunned.

They really didn't expect this joint visit to be so intense.

Ye Si knew that it wasn't for Wang Ha that they were fierce, and these issues were not all up to them.

It can only be said that he used this year's No. 2 pick to draft Durant, which caused too much resentment in the domestic public opinion circles.

After asking questions that were not up to them, Wang Han felt his palms sweating.

It's finally a smooth end.

"Yes, this is the end of the question about you and the supersonics, many domestic fans are also full of curiosity about you personally, there are some questions here that are asked on behalf of domestic fans, can you please answer?"

"Yes."

"Who is your favorite player in the NBA? Why? ”

"Yao Ming, he is the idol of all the people of the Demon Capital."

"Except for Yao Ming?"

"James, his affection for Cleveland is a role model for all."

Yao Ming can understand that Ye Si's second favorite is James?

Originally, Su Skirt thought that Ye Si would answer Jordan in the second person.

"No Jordan?"

"Jordan is not for liking."

"Jordan isn't for liking?"

"It's for transcendence."

Ye Si's voice was calm, and their scalps tingled when they could hear Su skirts.

And the American reporter next to him was more than excited and excited after learning about this group of questions and answers through the translator.

Seeing these American reporters like this, Wang Han and they were very worried.

Su Skirt is also very self-blaming, she didn't ask if she knew it!

Jordan is the real Pippen next to him, and Pippen is Durant next to Yes.

Jordan is the real Rodman next to him, and Rodman is Millsap next to Yese?

Jordan is the real BJ Armstrong next to him, and BJ Armstrong next to Yes is Rondo?

Take the head and surpass!

"Who is the best player in the NBA to defend you?"

"Bruce Bowen, Hamilton, Prince, James."

"Who is the hardest player to defend in the NBA?"

"Kobe, Maddie, Iverson."

"Can you tell us about the best team in NBA history?"

"O'Neal, Duncan, Bird, Jordan and Yes."

It's really not modest at all!

Tang Xiaoyao secretly looked at those American reporters and found that these American reporters didn't feel anything wrong with Ye Si's answer this time.

Tang Xiaoyao accompanied Ye Si to participate in the joint interview organized by CCTV tonight, and he was terrified throughout the whole process.

After two hours of interviews and small talk, this interview, which worried Tang Xiaoyao but was excited by American reporters, finally came to an end.

"Yes, can you be a little more mellow and humble when you are interviewed in the future?"

"Nope."

The magic capital is Ye Si's hometown, and this trip to Yes Sports has 13 days, and 13 days to run 20 cities, each city is less than a day.

And in the magic capital, Ye Si needs to stay for two days.

However, unlike the first day's running schedule, Ye Si was mainly meeting celebrities from all walks of life in the demon capital on the second day.

In the evening, Ye Si also met with the head of the sports department.

In addition to the leadership of the men's basketball team, Yes also unexpectedly met the leader of track and field.

"Xiaoye, I hope you can lead the team to the World University Games in Bangkok this year."

"In addition to being the flag bearer and captain of the men's basketball team, I also hope that you can try to participate in some track and field competitions, especially the half marathon."

Tang Xiaoyao, who had been by Ye Si's side, listened to the leader's words, with a hellish expression on his beautiful face.

"The Universiade? And the half marathon and track and field events? Isn't Yees a basketball player? ”

How can a basketball player participate in track and field, is there such a person in this world?

Compared with the surprised Tang Xiaoyao, Lin Qiuyi was much calmer.

"This year's Universiade is a test of the waters, and you want Ye Si to represent the track and field team in next year's Beijing Olympics?"

Lin Qiuyi frowned and said with a cold face.

"The little girl is very smart."

Athletics at the Beijing Olympics?

Is that really the case?

Ye Si was a little surprised.

Just now, the leader of the men's basketball team told him that he hoped that he could continue to participate in the University Games after playing the Asian Championships.

Yes can understand.

The University Games are known as the Little Olympics.

In the 2001 Beijing World University Games, the men's basketball team led by Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Battle, Zhu Fangyu, Du Feng and others defeated the United States men's basketball team led by Juan Dixon at the World University Games, and finally lost to Yugoslavia in the final, and got the best results in the history of the Chinese men's basketball team in international competitions.

If it is to participate in the World University Games after the Asian Championships, Ye Si is of course willing to participate.

Compared with the Asian Championships, he is even more willing to participate in the World Universiade.

It's just that what he doesn't understand is that the men's basketball team leaders also want him to be able to combine the half marathon and other track and field events by the way.

He likes to run, and that's right.

But I really didn't want to compete as a track and field athlete.

Although his marathon run at the All-Star Game in Las Vegas shocked the world.

Hopefully I can test the waters at the World Universiade with the goal of allowing me to participate in the track and field event of the Beijing Olympics?

"Lao Du, just say it."

The leadership of the men's basketball team was helpless.

"Originally, I didn't want to put pressure on Xiao Ye, if Xiao Ye's results in the World Universiade are very good, I will hope that Xiao Ye will represent the national track and field team in the Beijing Olympics, but if the results are not satisfactory, I will treat Xiao Ye as a casual play at the World Universiade."

"If it weren't for the fact that there was no way, I wouldn't have caused trouble for Xiao Ye."

The track leader sighed.

"Lao Du really has no choice, now Liu Xiang's injuries are intermittent, and in the 2008 Olympic Games, there may not be a gold medal in track and field."

"Of all the events in the Olympic Games, only the champion of track and field played the national anthem at the Bird's Nest."

"The country is looking forward to a hundred years of prosperity, and if the national anthem cannot be played in the Bird's Nest, it will be a pity for all Chinese sportsmen."

Playing the national anthem at the Bird's Nest?

Ye Si was stunned for a moment, and Tang Xiaoyao and Lin Qiuyi beside him were also stunned.

"The highest temple of sports in my own country, all the national anthems of other countries are played, which is a regret that no number of gold medals can make up."

"Xiao Ye, your marathons and long-distance runs and even short cannons are the only hope for the national anthem to be played in the Bird's Nest!"

"If Xiao Ye feels really embarrassed, he should be ......"

"I promised."

Before the field management leader finished speaking, Ye Si agreed.

"Except for hurdles and relays, I will participate in all track events."

Special Mission: Participated in the 2007 Universiade Half Marathon.

Reward: +1 stamina for victory

Special Mission: Participated in the 10,000m race at the 2007 Universiade.

Reward: +1 stamina for victory

Special Mission: Participated in the 5K race at the 2007 Universiade.

Reward: +1 stamina for victory

Special Mission: Participated in the 3km obstacle course at the 2007 World University Games.

Reward: +1 stamina for victory

Special Mission: Participated in the 1,500 meters at the 2007 Universiade.

Reward: +1 stamina for victory

As soon as Ye Si finished speaking, his giant star system underwent a special change again.

Ye Si was surprised.

This is how to break through 90 attribute points and break through the limit?!
