Chapter 15: McDonald's All-Stars

"You decide!"

Meng Xiaohao trembled, took the folder in his hand, this script was something he hadn't thought about at all, he imagined countless reasons why the coach was looking for him this time, but he really didn't expect this result, he didn't even think about it.

Meng Xiaohao opened the folder, and he heard his heartbeat clearly. In the folder, there was an envelope, Meng Xiaohao took it out, tore it open, and a piece of paper appeared inside......

"Dear Meng Xiaohao, I am the coach of the UCLA basketball team, and your outstanding basketball talent, shooting ability and dribbling level are very in line with our school's basketball style, so our school sincerely invites you to join UCLA and become a member of the basketball team. Chris. ”

Meng Xiaohao read the invitation, his hands began to tremble involuntarily, he raised his head and saw the relieved smiles of the coach and the principal, "This is ...... It's true...... Right! Obviously, Meng Xiaohao was excited and felt that he was dreaming.

"What's wrong with that? Do you think the principal and I called you here to make a joke of you? Do you feel the need for it? The coach listened to Meng Xiaohao's words and laughed directly, "Young man, don't worry, as long as you agree, you are a member of UCLA." With that, the coach got up, walked to Meng Xiaohao's side, and patted him on the shoulder, "Good boy, you didn't disappoint me!" ”

Meng Xiaohao's heart is extremely complicated now, he no longer knows whether he should cry or laugh when he is excited, he can only look at the coach directly, and he can't say a word.

"Hahaha! This kid was so excited that he was stupid! Looking at Meng Xiaohao's straight eyes, the principal laughed, "Let this kid calm down first, I don't know what he will do in a while when he is so excited!" As the principal spoke, he let Meng Xiaohao leave the principal's office and let him digest the excitement by himself.

Meng Xiaohao, who walked out of the principal's office, was a little dazed, all this came too suddenly, he lost the game the day before, and received this big surprise the day after, which made Meng Xiaohao a little overwhelmed.

"The next class seems to be an English class...... In the corridor, Meng Xiaohao suddenly thought of something, and then quickened his pace and walked towards his class.

English Lessons......

The English teacher was stupid, this was not the Meng Xiaohao in her impression at all, in this class, Meng Xiaohao did not lie on the table to sleep, nor did he sit there looking at the sky, but listened to his lecture very carefully, this sudden change made the English teacher a little difficult.

"Meng Xiaohao performed very well in this class, and he was very serious in class, even lying on the table!" This is the teacher's summary of Meng Xiaohao before class, the teacher's words surprised some of the top students sitting in the front row, Meng Xiaohao usually knows what state he is in class, this time he didn't sleep or look at the sky, and he listened to the class very seriously, is this still Meng Xiaohao? He won't have a fever!

But Meng Xiaohao's performance is only in English class, in other classes, Meng Xiaohao is still in the same state of class as before, either sleeping or looking at the sky, which makes teachers and students very puzzled, I don't know why Meng Xiaohao suddenly has a soft spot for English.

"Meng Xiaohao is not stupid!" Meng Xiaohao's changes reached the coach's ears, and the coach smiled with satisfaction after hearing it.

Meng Xiaohao was not carried away by the sudden excitement, he knew very well that if he went to the United States to play, communication would become the biggest obstacle to him, in China, there are many players who have the strength to play in the United States, but because of communication problems, they can only give up halfway.

"Xiaohao, I just hope your English talent is not so bad!"

In the next few days, Meng Xiaohao fully devoted himself to training and learning English, his enthusiasm for English surprised everyone, and some people even thought that Meng Xiaohao could only have three minutes of heat, but they didn't expect that Meng Xiaohao would be able to hold on for so long.

Meng Xiaohao's mother didn't show any joy or displeasure when she heard that Meng Xiaohao got the invitation letter from UCLA, she still kept a straight face every day, cold, and didn't know what she was thinking in her heart.

Meng Xiaohao was in this state for a week......

"Brother Hao, the coach is looking for you and asks you to go to his office!" is still the same classmate named Meng Xiaohao, but the difference is that when he was called Meng Xiaohao before, Meng Xiaohao was sleeping, and now when he is called Meng Xiaohao, Meng Xiaohao is memorizing words.

"Okay, I'll go right away!" As he spoke, Meng Xiaohao closed the English book, got up and walked outside the classroom door......

Meng Xiaohao arrived at the door of the coach's office, the door of the office was open, Meng Xiaohao knocked on the door, and walked in directly.

"Coach, what are you looking for me?" Meng Xiaohao saw that the coach was looking at him with a smile, and a sense of uneasiness suddenly welled up in his heart.

"Xiaohao! How's your English practice? ”

"It's okay, I don't have any foundation, start from scratch!" Meng Xiaohao was a little helpless, his English foundation was so poor that if he didn't study hard, there would be no way to improve it in a short time.

"Good boy, didn't disappoint me!" The coach smiled with satisfaction.

"Coach, did you have anything to do with me?" Meng Xiaohao didn't believe that the coach came to him just to ask him how he learned English.

"Of course, why else I called you here?" The coach paused, "Xiaohao, you should know about McDonald's High School All-Stars!" ”

"Of course I do! Held in the United States every June, it is the world's most famous basketball tournament for high school seniors, inviting exceptionally talented and talented high school seniors from all continents to compete. Like the All-Stars in major leagues, there are slam dunk contests, three-point contests, and All-Star games, which are divided into the northern and southern halves. "For all kinds of basketball events, Meng Xiaohao still knows everything about it.

"You're right!" The coach nodded, and then took out an envelope from his arms, "So, as the best high school graduate in Asian basketball, how can this game be without you!" ”

Meng Xiaohao was stunned for a moment, what are you kidding, did you do anything good in your last life? Or was he a big hero in the world in his last life? Why did good luck come one after another during this time, which made Meng Xiaohao speechless for a while, not knowing what to say.

"I don't believe it, do you?" Seeing Meng Xiaohao stunned in place, the coach couldn't help but smile, "I was stunned when I first received this invitation, and I didn't believe it, but after I repeatedly observed and called to consult, it has been confirmed that this matter is true." ”

"This ......" Meng Xiaohao took the envelope from the coach's hand, there was still an incredible expression on his face, all this was like a dream, just watch Meng Xiaohao pinch his face hard, and make sure that he could feel the pain in his face, so he took back the incredible a lot.

"It feels like a dream, isn't it?"

Meng Xiaohao nodded.

"Looks like your mother's wish is going to come to naught." The coach smiled, "Don't let me down, I shouldn't be able to accompany you to the United States at that time, you know?" So it's all up to you! ”

Meng Xiaohao smiled, the road that was pitch black before has become extremely bright in just a few days.

"That's right!" The coach suddenly thought of something, "I have to talk to your mom about the McDonald's All-Star, and I will tell your mom about it, I feel like your mom should agree, and then you need to arrive in the United States in May, one is to receive American-style training, and the other is to get familiar with your team, at that time, the North and South teams will also start training, and now there are still four months to go, you have to learn English well, you know?" I don't need to get any high grades, I just need you to be able to communicate with the people over there, you know? ”

Listening to the coach's words, Meng Xiaohao smiled bitterly, this week's English learning was enough for him, he didn't expect that he would have to work harder, but Meng Xiaohao didn't charge anything more, just nodded.

"I see!"

(The work has been officially signed, all kinds of tickets!) )
