Chapter 32: Meet Yao Ming
"Okay, Yao, this is the last question, what do you think of some recent news about Yi, he is your fellow countryman, I think your evaluation should be more pertinent than many people!"
A week had passed in September, and Yao Ming had also returned to the American Space City from Huaxia, and by the way, he participated in an interview, and the last question was a little difficult in front of him.
Fortunately, this is his fifth year in the NBA, and various interviews in the past have trained him to no longer have any nervousness in front of the camera, and as for the head card, it is even more impossible.
"Yi is a very low-key guy, as far as my impression of him is concerned, there must be something misunderstood when such a thing happens, American reporters like to do something not very calm, I think you know better, because they are your peers!"
"Haha, maybe that's what you said, man!"
Yao Ming spoke for Yi Jianlian unconditionally and threw the pot to the media, which made the male reporter with the microphone a little embarrassed, but he didn't dare to scold Yao Ming, as far as the latter's status and popularity in Houston were concerned, even if this passage was released, it would only be interpreted as "humorous".
Stars are always treated differently, and there are many fans who speak for them, and he doesn't dare to touch this mold.

"Okay, Hakim, you've told me this several times, I'm almost at your training gym now, well, I'll see you later!"
Before the interview began, Yao Ming received a call from Olajuwon, who said that Yi Jianlian was there and that he would be dragged over to meet him anyway.
Now another one, in fact, even if Olajuwon doesn't make this call, he will go, after all, he hasn't seen Yi Jianlian for many days, and seeing that the new season is just around the corner, he naturally has to say something as a senior to avoid the latter repeating his previous mistakes.
As soon as he entered the stadium, he heard a continuous slapping sound, followed the sound to find it, and soon found the venue where Olajuwon and Yi Jianlian were.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw the shirtless guy under the basket face the coach holding the crash pad with a deft turn and throw it away, and then the small hook hit the board and put the ball into the basket.
Strike!
Yao Ming's words from his mouth also changed directly from hi to nice!
"Wow, our Houston hero is finally here, damn it, you look good! This offseason didn't turn you into a fat pig! ”
Olajuwon greeted him directly, and his relationship with Yao Ming was really good.
"Heh, Hakim, you know I'm still an active player, so I can't be as indulgent as you!"
Yao Ming high-fived his senior, who was also a teacher and friend, and his eyes began to look for him on the field, and when he found the person he was looking for, his face showed surprise: "Wow, Ah Lian, you haven't practiced less this summer!" These muscles are almost the same as those black people! ”
What he was looking for was naturally Yi Jianlian, and when he found out that the guy who had just completed a beautiful goal under the basket was Yi Jianlian, his tone was incredulous.
Looks like the Milwaukee reporters are really looking for trouble!
Yao Ming made a judgment in his heart, originally he spoke for Yi Jianlian just to do his comradeship and comradeship, he was also a little skeptical, which is also the second reason why he would come over to see Yi Jianlian, in the NBA's 5-year career, he has witnessed too many talented people leaving the court lonely, Yi Jianlian is the next hope of the Chinese men's basketball team, and he is naturally unwilling to watch the latter fall willingly.
It's just that now it seems that the news about "Huaxia Yi is willing to fall" outside is fake news, and he is completely relieved.
"Yao Ming, long time no see!" Yi Jianlian walked towards Yao Ming, this was the first time he saw the banner of the Chinese men's basketball team, and he was shocked in his heart, but also quickly entered his role.
For him, Yao Ming is no longer an idol to admire as a fan, but a senior who needs to catch up.
Yi Jianlian hopes that he can resist the next banner of the Chinese men's basketball team this time, which is not completed by Yi Jianlian in the previous life, and it is also the most regrettable for countless fans.
Yi Jianlian didn't know why he suddenly had such an idea, but the moment he saw Yao Ming, there was really only this in his heart!
"Yi's progress is very fast, and his learning ability is the same as what you had at the beginning! Yao, you've met an opponent! Olajuwon interjected, praising Yi Jianlian's recent progress.
Yi Jianlian's progress this week is indeed commendable, after two days of stumbling, he was finally able to make a complete move against the defensive coach holding the charging pad, and in the following days he became more and more proficient, until today, he can make consistent and fast footwork in various positions.
In Olajuwon's words, this guy has gone through the most difficult period of learning Dream Steps, and all that remains is to continue to get familiar with it until he is as familiar as Yao Ming!
And Yi Jianlian can also see that there is an extra line of ability value on the part of the foot - Dream Footsteps: Proficiency 62.
"I have nothing left to teach you, congratulations, Yi, you have successfully graduated!" Olajuwon gave Yi Jianlian a thumbs up.
Yao Ming also understood why Olajuwang was in such a hurry to urge him to come over, the course of Dare Yi Jianlian has ended, if he doesn't come today, it is very likely that he will not be able to see him.
***
That night, Yao Ming took Yi Jianlian, Olajuwang and Dan Feigan to have a meal at Yao's restaurant, during which he naturally taught Yi Jianlian a lot of unwritten rules of the NBA.
Yi Jianlian didn't say that he benefited a lot, but he also benefited a lot, anyway, playing professionally is indeed the first time in his life, and he is definitely inferior to Yao Ming in terms of experience.
He also listened attentively.
"But, Yi, your mentality is really good, the Milwaukee fans have scolded you like that, you can still maintain your condition in training!" Olajuwon actually wanted to talk about this matter for a long time, but it was in the limelight at the time, and he was afraid that saying this matter would cause Yi Jianlian's psychological changes, and it would not be good to delay training, so he never mentioned it, and now that the turmoil has passed, he can say it.
How do you know that Yi Jianlian looked puzzled: "What, what scolded me?" Milwaukee fans scolding me? How so? ”
"Well," except for Dan Feigen, Yao Ming and Olajuwon were stunned, "Don't you know?" ”
"What's the matter?"
"You really don't know?!" Olajuwon seemed to understand something, and glanced at Dan Fagan, "You have a good agent!" ”
"What the hell is going on?" Yi Jianlian also looked at Dan Fagan.
"What else is going on, that day you went to a nightclub to save Jessica was photographed by the paparazzi and sent to the Pioneer Daily, and then ......" Dan Feigen smiled helplessly, didn't say much, and took Yi Jianlian's mobile phone out of his pocket, "You can watch the news yourself!" Also, Jessica sent you a lot of messages, see for yourself! ”
Yi Jianlian took the phone, still confused, he didn't rush to read Jessica's text messages, but searched for the news about him in the past few days, and after searching, he understood the ins and outs of everything, "I'll go, I'm scolded like this!" ”
Luckily, he had given Dan Fagan his phone before, otherwise he would have really struggled to maintain his concentration.
"You're right, Dan!" He must admit that Dan Fagan made the most correct decision at that time.
It's just that......
"Yi, did you see the news? I'm sorry to bother you! ”
"Guy with no conscience, you dare not reply to my message? Did you just cut ties with me? Damn it! ”
"Don't let me see you next time, or I'll definitely cut off your little brother!"
It's just that he's finished now, and Jessica, the little witch, will definitely not let him go. Fortunately, I won't meet her recently, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to sleep well at night.
"Jessica, listen to me, it's not that I don't want to reply to your text messages, it's that I'm training in Houston, Dan took my phone away, and I don't even know about the news!"
But Yi Jianlian still chose to reply to a text message to explain first, no matter what, it is still that sentence, the woman's text message must be replied, no matter how late, as long as she replies before the next meeting with her, then a disaster can be avoided.
"Sure enough, it's that damn old guy, forget it, no matter him, listen, Yi, no matter what, you have to play well in the new season, and fight back against that group of Bichiyang with your performance, otherwise, I will kill your little brother like I will next time we meet!"
OK, no matter what, the pot was successfully thrown to Dan Feigen first, although the result did not change much~
