Chapter 149: Li Yuanwei (5/5!) 200 monthly pass plus more! )
"Hello, I'm Li Yuanwei, the director of the China Basketball Management Center." The middle-aged man introduced himself with a smile.
His attitude was very polite, and he took the initiative to come over and stretch out his hand when he was introduced, which made people feel like he was a very ordinary person.
Tang Tian was the coach of the college basketball league in his previous life, and he still knew a little about the director of the basketball management center.
But he crossed over, and now he is an American citizen, and no matter how awesome the other party is, it has nothing to do with him.
Knowing the identity of the other party, and being so polite, he has no reason to put up a fight.
"Hello." Tang Tian got up and shook hands with Li Yuanwei, and then motioned for him to sit.
"You talk, I'll go out first?" Yao Ming said and glanced at Li Yuanwei.
Li Yuanwei nodded, and Yao Ming turned around and left the office, closing the door by the way.
"Are you looking for me because of Da Yao?" Tang Tian opened his mouth and said, Yao Ming did not participate in events other than international competitions because of his request, but now Yao Ming brought him again, and what he could guess was probably this.
"No, it's not Da Yao, it's like this, you know this year is the Olympic year, we China are the host, everyone hopes that the national men's basketball team will have an excellent performance in the Olympic Games, but you also know the strength of the Chinese men's basketball team, if you don't have a suitable tactical system, you will already be lucky to be able to enter the quarterfinals."
After Li Yuanwei finished with a smile, Tang Tian understood what he meant.
"You want me to be the coach of the national team?" Tang Tian opened his mouth and said.
"It's the head coach." Li Yuanwei nodded emphasized.
"You're not kidding, are you?" Tang Tian is a little incredible, although he doesn't know much about Chinese basketball now, but he also knows that the current head coach of the national team is the well-known Younas, and if the Rockets reach the finals, the time will be pushed to June, not to mention that there will be a draft conference after that, and when he vacuums down, it will be in July, and the Olympics will start in August.
A head coach who led the team one month before the game, he said that joking was already polite, this is simply a fantasy.
Coach Tang laughed. Li Yuanwei still smiled.
Tang Tian paused, thinking about it, it seems that Li Yuanwei is also the director of the basketball center, and he should not be to the point where he can wander around.
"That's the case, I've brought the team's selection list, if you agree, you can choose people now, and then the training, if you have an opinion, you can directly mention it, no opinion, we still follow the old routine, and we will find someone else to be responsible for completing it, as for you to arrive at the team in July, everything will be up to you at that time."
After listening to Li Yuanwei, Tang Tian knew that he was serious.
And these conditions are really unheard of, this is probably the most liberal head coach in history.
"I don't really understand, isn't Yunas good?" Tang Tian still has a little impression of the Olympic Chinese team in 08 in his previous life, when Yao Ming came back, the team's morale was strong and reached the quarterfinals of the Olympic Games, equaling the historical record.
"Yes, Younas is a good coach, but you certainly can't compare to Coach Don."
"Ahem." Tang Tian's face was a little embarrassed, this Director Li would even be a sycophant.
"I'm telling the truth, I've watched all the games in the Rockets playoffs last year and this year, and every time the team has a problem, it's you, the coach, who solves it."
After Li Yuanwei finished speaking, he saw that Tang Tian's face was not too good, and began to change the conversation.
"In fact, another reason is because Sun Yue and Yao Ming are both on the Rockets, and they are both playing, they must be the main force of the men's basketball team, if you are there, they can play 100% strength, and you are Chinese, and it is convenient to communicate with the players."
After hearing Li Yuanwei say this, Tang Tian's face softened a little.
This is a reasonable reason.
The previous head coach of the national team either had the strength of the domestic coach himself, or the communication barrier of the foreign coach.
"I'll think about it." Tang Tian did not agree, nor did he refuse.
As a Chinese, although it is a traverser, there is an opportunity, especially in the Olympic Games, to lead the men's basketball team to win glory for the country, it must be a good thing, especially in the previous life when he encountered a black whistle and could not display his ambitions.
However, he has some understanding of the complex situation of the men's basketball team, including the negative public opinion pressure that the game may encounter, and the short-term run-in problem.
"Of course, but this time is ...... You know how to choose someone to ......," Li Yuanwei wanted to speak and stopped.
"Two days, before the Western Conference with the Lakers." Tang Tian is not a person who drags mud and water.
"Good!" Li Yuanwei's face was excited, he probably didn't expect Tang Tian to say it so simply.
The two chatted a few more words, and Tang Tian then sent Li Yuanwei out of the office.
looked at the paper list left by Li Yuanwei, and looked at the familiar names on it, Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, Wang Zhizhi, Zhu Fangyu......
Memories flood uncontrollably into the brain like a tidal wave.
Unfortunately, he lost to Spain, drew a quarter with the United States, won the German team, and reached the quarterfinals but was bloodied by Lithuania.
As part of the Chinese basketball fans, no one was not impressed by the performance of the men's basketball team at that Olympics.
After a few minutes, he put away his thoughts, and then began to search for Li Yuanwei.
If he really wants to be the head coach, he must first understand Li Yuanwei, the director called Xinlancheng in his previous life is also fresh in his memory, if it is such a person, he will never do it.
Before, because of the forum, he went over the wall, and he was familiar with the domestic website at this time.
After searching for things related to Li Yuanwei, the corners of Tang Tian's mouth slowly raised a smile.
Reform of the competition system, investment promotion plan, league packaging, University of Memphis five-year plan......
In terms of vision, Li Yuanwei can be regarded as a very good basketball director, although there are also points that do not pay attention to youth training, but on the whole, it is many times better than the Xinlan City he knew before.
Thinking about Li Yuanwei's attitude towards himself today, he can also feel that this is a person who really wants to do practical things for Chinese basketball, otherwise a cadre at the level of a serious person would never be able to speak so low to himself.
Think of it as for Chinese basketball.
After all, Tang Tian has the blood of the Chinese in his bones.
"I have a decision." Early the next morning, Tang Tian called the phone left by Li Yuanwei.
Li Yuanwei should have been eating breakfast, and after hearing Tang Tian's call, he heard the sound of Suosuo, and he should have found a place to answer the phone.
