Chapter 101: My name is Liu Min
"ummm, so Chris, have you figured out how you're going to deal with this tricky question?"
John Nynon said with a smile: "I once asked how many cents a dollar is, and there were a lot of players who couldn't get it right. ”
"Haha?"
Deng Hongfei also found it quite interesting, "Do these questions have anything to do with playing basketball?" ”
John Nynon shook his head over there, "NONO, CHRIS, I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THESE PROBLEMS HAVE TO DO WITH PLAYING BASKETBALL, BUT YOU'D BETTER BE PREPARED ACCORDINGLY." ”
"By the way, if someone really asked you how you would choose to die, how would you answer?"
He turned around a little expectantly.
"Ha, I think I'll say, sir, I'm still so young, I don't want to die yet, I want to play basketball, I want to win the MVP, I want to make the best team, I want to win the championship, the future is so bright, why do I have to find a way to die?"
Deng Hongfei said without thinking.
"Bingo, Chris, I think that's a perfect answer." John Nynon praised, "Alright, Chris, I can't go on with you, I still have a lot of places to run, and I have to keep working for you." ”
"Good work, John." Deng Hongfei thanked him from the bottom of his heart.
"Yes, you trust me so much, I must work hard."
With that, he hung up.
In the blink of an eye, it's another week.
The domestic media didn't know where to learn that Deng Hongfei would participate in this year's Chicago joint trial.
A large number of Chinese media outlets boarded flights to the United States and arrived at UW's home stadium, the Alaska Airlines Stadium.
Early in the morning, Deng Hongfei was still doing strength exercises under Solomon's supervision.
Romar ran over, "Chris, the media from China has surrounded our venue, do you want to go out and have a look?" ”
"Coach, let them stay."
Deng Hongfei responded in a deep voice while lifting the weight.
"You can really calm down, this is the media in your hometown."
"Haha, all the media are a urine sex, a gimmick, looking for the 'key' I don't want to be caught because of what I said, and the 'key' is infinitely amplified."
Deng Hongfei put down the barbell, sat up and wiped his sweat.
Romar laughed and said: "It's not good for you to be like this, as a player you have to be good at dealing with the media, the media can expand your popularity, why not?" ”
"If you play basketball well, you will naturally be well-known."
Deng Hongfei doesn't care.
"Okay, you go on, I'll go out and have a look."
Outside, seven or eight media outlets with ENG, microphones and other reporting equipment wanted to enter the Alaska Aviation Coliseum.
was blocked by a group of stadium staff.
At this time, Romar walked out and walked in front of everyone with a smile, "Hello friends from China, I am the head coach of UW, I know you want to know about Deng's situation, but he is not very convenient now, so please go back." ”
"Coach."
"Coach."
When a group of reporters heard this, they immediately hugged him, and seven or eight microphones were aimed at him, "We want to ask, will Deng Hongfei participate in the joint trial in Chicago this year?" ”
"Of course, he's a fantastic player, the NBA is where he ends, and he's definitely going to go."
Romar's first answer was to confirm the rumors circulating in the country.
Immediately aroused the excitement of the crowd.
You know, since Yi Jianlian left the league, the NBA has only Jeremy Lin, an American dressed as Chinese, to play in the league.
Domestic fans want to see a real Chinese player galloping on the NBA court.
Deng Hongfei's birth has undoubtedly brought new possibilities to this expectation.
One reporter immediately asked, "Coach, what do you think of his draft prospects and will he be drafted?" ”
"I don't know about this, the draft is a matter for the major NBA teams, I'm just a coach."
"Coach, do you think Deng Hongfei's current state can compete in the NBA?"
"People need a process of growth, and in my opinion, Deng is a very talented player, there's no doubt about it."
Romar is adept at dealing with the media's problems.
Chinese English is notoriously good, and even speaks it better than Americans.
There is no barrier to communication at all.
"Coach, I heard that he was ready to enter the league last year, but had to return to China because of a serious injury, and it took a long time to recover before he stepped back on the basketball court, do you think he can return to his peak form with such a serious injury?"
"Peak status?"
Hearing this, Romar smiled, "Mind you, Deng is just a 20-year-old player, he's nowhere near the top of what he can do, he can do a lot, he has the ability to do that, as for injuries, you don't have to worry, it's not a problem, he's fine." ”
After speaking, Romar waved his hand, "Fellow journalists, please go back, for more information, please wait and see for the joint trial in Chicago on May 16." ”
"Goodbye."
He waved his hand, turned and entered the arena.
A group of reporters who still wanted to keep up were intercepted by the staff.
In an inconspicuous corner, Liu Min recorded all this with electronic devices.
She should have set off a long time ago, but it was too troublesome to go through the various procedures in China, and when she waited for the live broadcast, all the work was arranged, and it was close to the peak of public opinion for the joint trial.
When the disappointment of her domestic colleagues dispersed, she approached the stadium with a shoulder bag.
"Hello."
The security guards stopped her as soon as possible.
"Hello." Liu Min has a background of studying in the United States, and her English is a little less rigid and a little more pure.
Toothy and decent, he smiled, "I am a friend of Deng Hongfei in China, but I have just arrived in the United States now, and I don't have his contact information here, please inform him, my name is Liu Min, and I am from Shuangqing." ”
"Friends at home?"
A big white man looked back and forth on her body strangely, and then picked up the walkie-talkie, "Coach, there is a Chinese named Liu Min outside who said that she is Chris's friend, and she said that he is from Shuangqing." ”
"Chris's friend? Okay, I see. ”
Romar quickly relayed the news to Deng Hongfei.
When the latter heard this, he immediately paused, "Sister Liu Min? ”
The first thing that came to his mind came to mind was the young female reporter who was shooting with the team every day in the basketball hall of Shuangqing University.
In Deng Hongfei's eyes, Liu Min is a reporter with feelings and thoughts, which is different from those others.
During the time spent together every day, a good relationship was also formed between the two people.
Without hesitation, he took the initiative to go outside to greet him.
