Chapter 908: This is good news
At the end of the game, the United States team won the championship.
But the American players didn't look very happy.
On the contrary, they had a relieved look on their faces.
With a long sigh, I felt relaxed.
For the Americans, winning the championship is not a particularly joyous thing.
This may be the sorrow of the strongest.
The function of victory is no longer to bring joy, but to prevent blame.
As Peking Opera master Mei Lanfang said, when he reaches his old age, going on stage is like going to the execution ground.
Because thousands of pairs of eyes are staring, I am afraid of making mistakes.
In this way, acting is naturally no longer a pleasure, but a torture.
The situation of the American team is the same, for fear of losing, especially for fear of losing to Li Liang.
Fortunately, they withstood the pressure, otherwise it would have been a beautiful picture after the game.
On the Chinese side, although they lost the game, they were not sad at all.
The main reason is that Li Liang brought this goods well.
Get yourself and your teammates vaccinated early.
After the game, everyone high-fived and cheered, accompanied by a large number of Chinese fans waving red national flags.
If you just turned on the TV and don't watch the score, you think that the Chinese team has won and won the Olympic championship.
In fact, no, the Chinese team was very "regretful" and only won a silver medal.
But there is no doubt that it is a heavy silver medal.
It is the silver medal with the heaviest weight and the highest silver content of the Chinese Olympic team in this Olympic Games.
When it came time to the award ceremony, the scene was even hilarious.
Australia won the gold medal and the United States won the silver medal, and they all had a "Sima face" on the podium.
The Australians thought they should have made it to the final, only to lose to China.
The Americans could have won the championship, but when they won against China, they always felt a bit unsuccessful.
The happiest is the Chinese team, standing on the podium and wearing the silver medal for the whole team, not to mention how happy I feel.
The leaders and coaches of the Chinese team are all happy.
Yao Ming, who went to the scene to watch the game, even laughed like a dog ignoring the buns with the folds on his face.
Li Liang stood in the front row of the team, raised his hands after winning the silver medal, and waved to the large number of Chinese fans in attendance.
Of course, the fans at the scene responded enthusiastically, and almost all the Chinese in Rio came.
It was quite spectacular, and it felt like the Chinese team had won the championship.
When the national flag was raised and the national anthem was formed, the music of "The Star-Spangled Banner Never Falls" in the United States sounded.
Li Liang has really listened to this song too much.
Sing before every game in the NBA.
Whoever wants to say that Americans do not attach importance to patriotic education is nonsense.
But this song is really difficult to sing, not to mention ordinary people, it is very difficult for ordinary professional singers to sing it in the original tune.
Because the song spans 12 scales, 1.5 octaves, and goes from B flat to F sharp.
Whitney-Houston's classic opening national anthem of the Super Bowl that year was later confirmed to be a lip-synching, a recording played.
Because there is a high chance of a car accident when it comes to singing.
As a result, the national anthem was played loudly, but no one opened their mouths to sing it.
If Li Liang didn't have an ordinary singing voice, he would have sung two sentences along to help them have fun.
After the men's basketball final, the Rio Olympics also came to a successful conclusion.
The Chinese delegation ranked third in the medal table with 26 gold, 19 silver and 26 bronze medals.
Li Liang is very satisfied with this trip to the Olympic Games.
From the first day to the last day, he led Chinese basketball to achieve a historic breakthrough.
Li Liang's reputation in the domestic sports world has also reached a peak.
Needless to say, it's on the news again!
Li Liang's annual frequency of news broadcasts has surpassed that of some unknown foreign heads of state.
At the grand closing ceremony, Li Liang once again entered the main stadium with the members of the Chinese team as the leader of the Chinese team and waved the national flag in his hand.
To be honest, the 71 medals of the Chinese delegation, the silver medal of the Chinese men's basketball team is the most eye-catching.
In this way, in the basketball world, the Chinese team has also broken the pattern of yin and yang, and has stood at the same height as the Chinese women's basketball team.
At that time, the women's basketball team and women's football team all won the world runner-up in the highest level of national competitions.
Today, the Chinese men's basketball team has also done it.
The cameras of the TV station kept giving Li Liang.
It can be said that in the 2016 Rio Olympics, Li Liang and the Chinese men's basketball team led by him definitely left a strong mark.
……
There is no feast in the world.
After winning the Olympic silver medal, Li Liang was supposed to return to Beijing with the Chinese men's basketball players, where the people of his hometown were waiting for him to reward their basketball heroes.
But Li Liang refused.
He said that he had done what he could do, and all the joy and excitement were fulfilled on the court.
He should have left, he was going back to the United States, where he still had unfinished poverty alleviation.
What kind of spirit is a Chinese, without self-interest, helping the poor in the American basketball world?
This is the spirit of internationalism.
Yao Ming repeatedly retained Li Liang, hoping that he would return to China for a while with him.
"The big leader may want to meet you."
"The leaders are very busy, if I win a championship, I can still see it, but I can't see the runner-up, forget it, I should go back."
Li Liang insisted on leaving, and of course Yao Ming had no choice.
After that, the leaders of the General Administration of Sports decided to let the men's basketball team hold a farewell party for Li Liang in Rio.
At the farewell party, Li Liang drank heartily, happier than every time he won the championship.
After drinking, Li Liang grabbed every men's basketball player, told them to train hard.
The gap is still huge, and basketball doesn't rely on one person to become strong.
Players who can join the national team should be a role model for Chinese basketball lovers and a seed for the continuation of basketball culture.
The idols of Chinese basketball cannot always be Americans, they should have their own spiritual idols.
This requires every high-level athlete to work hard, forge ahead, and be strict with themselves.
There is an upper limit to ability and level, but there is a higher heaven in the spiritual realm.
The day after the farewell party, Li Liang parted ways with the delegation.
The delegation flew back, while Li Liang went to Los Angeles.
In Los Angeles, there's also a big reality show waiting for him — the annual "Where Are You Going, Dad?" is about to start again.
As Li Liang's level is getting higher and higher, and his dominance in the basketball world is getting stronger and stronger, now not only those "quasi-champion strong teams" are snatching Li Liang's signing rights, but those weak teams have also seen that Li Liang has the ability to change his life against the sky.
The Chinese men's basketball team can bring it to the finals and win the silver medal, so the NBA team plus Li Liang will not take off?
And Li Liang showed a new style of play at the Olympics.
is able to carry four and fight with four rookies.
This kind of ability, those weak teams are really greedy.
Therefore, Zhu Shu was in Los Angeles, and the phone had already been blown up.
The managers of each team found Zhu Shu through various methods, contacted her, and recruited Li Liang.
However, Zhu Shu did not declare that Li Liang would only be in California.
After Li Liang himself arrived in Los Angeles, it was even more unbelievable, with the media, all kinds of interviews, all kinds of advertising invitations, invitations to reality shows and talk shows flying like snowflakes.
Zhu Shu couldn't be busy alone, so she hired an assistant to help.
is a Chinese girl studying at UCLA in Los Angeles and majoring in journalism, named Dong Yu, whose English name is Dean.
She accompanied Zhu Shu to pick up Li Liang at the airport, and she was nervous.
Li Liang arrived at the airport and saw that the person accompanying Zhu Shu was not Jensen, but a girl.
It looks pretty good, but the appearance is obviously an ABC, from the English person, the face shape is different from the Chinese speaker.
It seems that Zhu Shu understands his own aesthetics very well and knows that this is not his preference, so he is very relieved to find an assistant.
Dean is a very generous girl, very capable of work, and has seen a lot of the world.
But the first time I saw Li Liang, I was still quite nervous, and his speech was a little knotted.
However, after more contact, I found that Li Liang was a very elegant and easy-going person in private, and he was very easy to get along with.
So her nervousness quickly disappeared.
In the car, Dean was driving, and Zhu Shu kept swiping her phone.
In the era of online media, anyone who works in sports is inseparable from online social media.
Zhu Shu suddenly exclaimed, and said to Li Liang: "Li Liang, you can't become a warrior anymore." ”
"Huh? I'm not going to the Warriors. ”
"I mean, you can't go if you want to. What's new just now, James has joined the Warriors. ”
"......" Li Liang frowned, and then stretched out, "But this is good news." ”
