After celebrating this year's championship with Timberwolves fans, Li Qiang and Liu Mengqi both returned to China.

In the past two or three years, Li Qiang has been a little tired of the feeling of wandering in a foreign country. Although there are fans who love themselves, there are their own good friends and good friends, and there is a basketball temple that has been conquered by their own charm, it is not their own country after all. I'm there, after all, it's just a crooked nut.

Only when Li Qiang's landline landed in East China City and stepped on the hot land of the motherland for a moment did he feel as if he had truly returned to his mother's arms.

Myself, finally home.

Tens of thousands of fans have lined up in a neat line to welcome Li Qiang with banners outside Li Qiang's landline. How similar is this scene to the crowd of thousands of people in this small city when Li Qiang returned to Minneapolis three months ago?

On both sides of the earth, Li Qiang has gained countless fans. They all love him and want to see more and more exciting performances from him.

Of course, the greater the fame, the more controversy. There are people who like Li Qiang, and naturally there are people who don't like Li Qiang. Li Qiang can't ask everyone on the planet to like him, but if there is a large group of passionate and heartfelt fans, and most people like him, that's enough.

At this point, Li Qiang has done a good job. Li Qiang learned from Liu Xiang's lessons and Yao's successful example to build a public relations team that costs more than $3 million a year. Although it seems to burn money, it is only a drop in the bucket of the $200 million that Li Qiang can earn in a year.

And the benefits that this team has brought to Li Qiang are far from being described in terms of money. So far, Li Qiang, like Yao Ming, has a very positive image in the minds of most Chinese. This, combined with the huge Chinese market, can bring Li Qiang tens of millions of dollars in advertising revenue a year!

Not to mention that after the image is good, no matter where you go in the world, there will be fans of different colors, races, and genders to welcome you. No matter what kind of comments you are subjected to, millions of die-hard fans will jump out and drown that troll in saliva. Li Qiang's popularity has crossed the boundaries of race, nationality and gender.

In fact, life has reached the level of Li Qiang, and money is just a number. And this feeling of being welcomed by people all over the world cannot be bought by no amount of money.

Back in East China City, the first thing Li Qiang did was to go home with his girlfriend to visit his parents. No matter how many roads a person walks and no matter how great his achievements are, he can't change the fact that his parents gave him life and raised him.

"Dad, Mom, Xiaoqi and I have come to visit you."

Mom rushed out of the house first: "Oh, you're back, sit down!" ”

"Cuong, you look thin again. Ah Qi, you have to take good care of Ah Qiang, don't let him keep up with his nutrition. ”

In fact, Li Qiang just cultivated to a high level, and the muscles that burst out were all densely arranged together, so he just looked thinner.

"Eun yes, I'll take a good 'look' at him." Little sweetheart Liu Mengqi responded.

At this time, Li Qiang's father paced to the living room and said, "Ah Qiang, you won the championship again today." Your mom and I are so proud of you! You have won glory for us Chinese! ”

"This is what I should do!" Li Qiang replied with a smile.

After taking a sip of water, Li Qiang continued to say proudly: "Now, there are two pillars of Chinese basketball, me and Zhang Guangming, and the whole country has a passion for basketball. In addition, the Li Qiang basketball dream training camp I ran has blossomed all over the country, and there will definitely be many good seedlings emerging in the past few years. In the future, we can look forward to having Chinese players enter the NBA with a relatively high ranking every year! ”

"Ah Qiang, you and Xiaoqi sit and watch TV for a while, and Mom will cook!" Li Qiang's mother said.

"No, no, you don't have to cook. I've discussed it with Xiaoqi, let's cook a meal for you. You see, we even bought the raw materials to make it. ”

After speaking, Li Qiang took his little sweetheart's hand and went into the kitchen. The tall Li Qiang couldn't get into the height of the smoker, so he could only be responsible for cutting vegetables, and handed it over to Liu Mengqi, who had made great progress in cooking in the past two or three years.

"Wife, Cuong is right, we are at the age of happiness!" Li Qiang's father said with a smile, his eyes narrowed into a slit.

"Yes, yes! Being able to eat the dishes cooked by my son and daughter-in-law is also satisfying! Li Qiang's mother's face bloomed with joy.

A pot of tomato and egg drop soup, a plate of vinegared shredded potatoes, a plate of braised pork, and a plate of mapo tofu. It's just such an ordinary table of home-cooked food, but the family eats happily.

That's what home feels like.

It's nice to have a home.
