Chapter 1 A New Journey (Asking for Collection Recommendation Votes)
The time on the invitation is May 17th, which is nearly a month before the start of the trial.
This month's time is particularly precious for Li Yang, and after the system rewards the invitation, he immediately found coach Chen Wei for help and formulated a targeted promotion special training plan.
After a month of hard training, he basically integrated all the skills on his body, and compared to when he won the championship, now his attribute value has increased by a small margin, and Li Yang has some confidence in the joint trial.
In mid-May, after making the final preparations, Li Yang completed the formalities, took the necessities, said goodbye to his parents and friends, and boarded a flight to Chicago alone.
This is not the first time he has taken a plane, he skillfully found his seat, looking at the gradually smaller buildings outside the window, his mood is a little complicated, he can't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart. There is not only a vision for the future life, but also a reluctance to give up on the family and beauties, and at the same time a little apprehension.
Basketball is one of the most popular sports in China. Every afternoon, whether it is the campus or the community court, it is basically a scene of sweating rain, and there are countless people who share his basketball dreams.
However, in such an environment, in the history of Chinese basketball, there are only a handful of players who have the opportunity to appear on the NBA stage, let alone emerge in the NBA. At present, Yao Ming is the only one who is more successful.
While physical fitness and talent are important, so is the environment in which you grow up.
An Asian player may not be in contact with basketball until he is a teenager or even in college, and those who have been on the field since childhood in the United States, experienced countless big and small games, and have received systematic and formal training in middle school, how can this be compared, it is really lost at the starting line, after all, there are very few talented talents, which is the fundamental reason why there are almost no yellow people in the NBA.
Thinking about when Yao Ming gained a foothold in the NBA, how many people were crazy about it, skipping class to watch the NBA became a regular operation, and the popularity of basketball was once very popular, but all of this fell to the bottom with Yao Ming's retirement.
The NBA is the temple of world basketball, and not everyone can blossom here, starting with Wang Zhizhi to the most recent Zhou Qi, but among the Chinese players who have landed in the NBA, Yao Ming is the only one who has succeeded. It can be seen how difficult it is for the yellow race to gain a foothold in the NBA!
That's why some American media reporters laughed without smiling: "How can China's more than 1.4 billion people not find 5 people who are good at basketball." β
How can you tolerate others to humiliate each other!
For Chinese fans, there is an urgent need for a superstar to stand up and dare to step on the stage of the NBA to prove himself and prove that we Chinese can also play basketball.
Although there is still a long way to go to reverse this image, he firmly believes that he will not disappoint Enron, his parents and all the fans who support him!
At one o'clock in the afternoon, Li Yang and the others waved and flew from Shenzhen Bao'an International Airport to Chicago.
No one's life will always be perfect, but no matter what time we must be full of sunshine and hope, we can be fearless and invincible!
He walked into the gate alone, and soon the plane took off and took him to the distant United States, where his dream would begin.
"Hello, can I borrow it, my seat is in it?" On the plane, Li Yang was looking out the window in a daze, when suddenly a nice voice came from behind him.
Li Yang looked back and saw a blonde beauty carrying a pink box and talking to him.
Li Yang came back to his senses, looked at the other party carefully, and then stood up shyly and said, "Are you talking to me?" Sorry, I was a little distracted just now and didn't notice you coming in. β
The other party just nodded politely, put away the luggage, and then walked into the seat, Brother Bin had no intention of talking, and Li Yang gave up the idea of communicating with the other party.
After the plane flew for a while, it entered the clouds, and then began to bumble, Li Yang began to feel a little dizzy, looked at the beautiful woman next to him who was closing his eyes and recuperating, he also adjusted his posture, and then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
"Wake up~ Wake up!"
"What are you doing?" Li Yang was also angry, he slept soundly, what are you pushing me for, I recruited you to provoke you.
He propped up his heavy eyelids, stared wide-eyed and looked forward, this look was not tight, his eyes immediately widened bigger than a bull's eye, and he saw a scene that made him embarrassed, and his sleepiness disappeared in an instant.
He was still wondering, wasn't he dreaming just now? How to get up and lie on someone else's lap.
There was a slippery feeling on Li Yang's right face, and then he just raised his eyes slightly, who is this?? What am I doing?
Li Yang gasped, "Don't look at indecency, don't look at indecency!! β
Li Yang took a deep breath, and suddenly a faint gas in the air was sucked into Li Yang's nose, and an indescribably bad smell came from the other party, stimulating Li Yang, and the scene became even more embarrassing.
"Why are you so fierce? You lie on my lap, do you have any reason? The girl's angry voice sounded, and because she was too close, the breath from her mouth sprayed directly on the side of Li Yang's face.
Li Yang's face was flushed, how embarrassing it was, it was really embarrassing to be thrown abroad, and he didn't figure out the situation until this moment.
Your sister, you're lying on someone's lap? Dude is also going to be a superstar in the future, how can he be so dirty.
Li Yang's mind was racing fast, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, wanting to find a way to alleviate the embarrassing situation in front of him, and he couldn't be arrested as a hooligan.
Pretending to be stupid?
Selling cute?
It's not impossible, but Li Yang can't open this mouth, it's too shameful.
In the end, Li Yang didn't say anything, and quickly got up from the girl, maybe he had slept for too long, his face and saliva were stuck with her beautiful legs and stockings, and as soon as he left, he immediately heard a slight "hissing" feeling.
The girl is wearing a pair of sunglasses, and she can't see too many expressions, and her whole hairstyle, dress, and figure are all very sexy, just like a Hollywood actress.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Li Yang said embarrassedly.
When the girl saw him apologize, she waved her hand generously, "Forget it, forget it." β
Li Yang hurriedly made up for himself, "Uh, how did I lie down just now?" β
The girl pushed her sunglasses and said, "How do I know, at the beginning, I saw you falling asleep against the window, and I was also sleepy, but after sleeping for a while, there was suddenly an extra person on my lap." β
Li Yang said: "It's too tiring to bump all the way, I'm really embarrassed." β
"It's fine. Seeing how tall you are, are you a basketball player? The girl was reasonable, and didn't dwell too much, but just asked curiously.
"That's right. Formally introduce myself, my name is Li Yang and I am from China. I'm going to Chicago for a joint tryout, and maybe in the near future, you'll be able to see my handsome figure on TV! Speaking of his old business, Li Yang regained his previous self-confidence.
"Isn't it true that all Chinese men are more modest, why are you different? Since Yao retired from the NBA, no one in China has been able to gain a foothold in the NBA, and I hope you are next! The beauty rolled her eyes, but said her nameβElle Fanning.
Li Yang can only take care of her face, although the sunglasses block a lot, but they still can't hide her beautiful face, she is definitely a beauty with a score of more than 9.2.
Dressed in a Greek pale blue chiffon dress, with just a string of pearl necklaces around her neck, she didn't embellish it too much, just let her blonde curls fall naturally, scattered around her waist like seaweed.
This kind of beauty is rare even in the entertainment industry, let alone a blonde foreigner.
At this time, Elle stretched out her hand and pointed out the window and said, "Look outside, we have arrived." β
Li Yang rubbed his sleepy eyes and turned his head to look out the window.
Chicago is one of the most important centers of culture, science and education in the United States, with the world's top universities, the University of Chicago, Northwestern University, and the world-renowned Chicago School.
Home to four of the ten tallest skyscrapers in the United States and the Sears Tower, once the tallest building in the world, Chicago is known as the "home of skyscrapers."
"It's spectacular." He couldn't help but let out a sigh.
Entering the airspace of Chicago, the plane began to reduce altitude, and at this time, the mysterious veil of Chicago was finally fully revealed in front of Li Yang.
Like Chinese cities, tall buildings stand tall, and what was originally seen in the sky has now become a large area.
The plane is still descending altitude. Looking at the building that has become bigger little by little, Li Yang couldn't help but feel restless in his heart, is this coming!
"The plane is about to land, please fasten your seatbelts and ...... passengers"
At this time, the flight attendant began to play the reminder of the upcoming station.
After a jolt, the plane landed at Chicago's O'Hare Airport.
Li Yang and Elle Fanning got off the plane, and after exiting the airport, they left each other's contact information, and then parted ways, is this really just a small episode?
It was 4 o'clock in the afternoon when I departed from Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport, and after arriving in the United States, I flew for most of the day, but because of the time difference, it was already 7 o'clock in the evening of American time.
Although he had slept on the plane for most of the day, he still felt a deep sleepiness suddenly hit, and because of the jet lag, he already felt extremely heavy eyelids in the car, and he didn't fall asleep.
As soon as he arrived at the hotel, he fell directly into the bed, put the quilt on his body and fell asleep.
It was dark this night, and by the time he woke up, it was already past eleven o'clock in the evening American time.
