Chapter 440: Who Are the Saboteurs?
Nowitzki's wedding, while low-key, was quite lively. In some ways, there are some similarities between traditional German weddings and Chinese weddings. For example, on the day of the wedding, friends and relatives will try their best to play pranks on the couple.
For example, in the middle of a wedding, Nowitzki's male friends would "rob" the bride and hide it. If Nowitzki fails to find the bride within the allotted time, then there is some price to pay for the bride to be ransomed. For example, give everyone a joke, sing a song, or promise to wash the dishes four weeks before the wedding, etc.
With Terry, the "king of bad ideas", taking the lead, Nowitzki naturally couldn't find his wife in the huge banquet hall. So Nowitzki showed off his singing voice, which attracted applause from the audience.
In the end, Nowitzki accompanied Yiyang and Terry and the others to get drunk. Yiyang still remembers that the last time he was so drunk was when he went to a nightclub to celebrate after winning the championship last year. In just one year, the group of people who won the championship together and got drunk together have already wanted to be different.
Yiyang drank so much, half of it was for Nowitzki, who only got married at the age of 34, to be happy. The other half is to bid farewell to Terry.
The last thing Yiyang remembered was that he was helped back to the hotel room by Vignary, and then he was directly broken.
When he woke up the next day, Yiyang had a splitting headache. For Yiyang, who doesn't drink often, he really has to get drunk like this once in a while.
Yiyang shook his head and found Vignari resting on his arm. The most important thing is that this Italian girl with a hot body is naked at this time.
No wonder Vignari hasn't woken up yet, it seems that after drinking too much last night, she "turned the clouds and rain" again.
At the end of this crazy trip to Germany, Yiyang also ended the most leisurely part of his vacation. After that, Terry has to travel for his next family, Kidd is busy with coaching courses, Nowitzki has to rush to Kenya to prepare for his and his wife's second wedding, and Yiyang must rush back to London as soon as possible to join the Chinese national team.
Speaking of the Chinese national team, some people in the Basketball Association have not been very satisfied with Yiyang's performance recently. On July 29, the Chinese men's basketball team will start the first game of the Olympic Games with Spain, and now it is almost the 10th, but the Basketball Association still has not seen Yiyang's figure.
Although the Basketball Association promised that Yiyang does not have to train with the team for a long time, and has the right to choose the time for joint training. But when photos of Yiyang getting drunk on the streets of Germany broke out on the Internet, some people in the Basketball Association who "had bad intentions" were still a little unhappy.
"The Olympics are about to start! He's still fooling around in Germany! If you want me to say, this child is really completely eroded by American education! "Several basketball association officials who live in the Olympic Village are privately speaking ill of Yiyang.
"Like, who does that kid think he is? Playing in the NBA doesn't mean he can do whatever he wants! β
"If you want me to say, this kid Yiyang is challenging our authority! The Basketball Association begged the players to come back to practice as soon as possible, where is there such a thing! Where does he place our authority? There is a thorn like Yiyang, and there will be thousands of imitators in the future! At that time, Chinese basketball must not be messed up! β
A few people seem to have reached some kind of consensus. On the surface, they seem to be doing it for the good of Chinese basketball, but in fact, it is the desire for control in their hearts that is causing trouble.
"I think it's time to put an end to the arrogance of this stinky boy! Chinese Basketball Association, it has to be our officials who have the final say! "One of them slapped the table, for the sake of power and political performance, they really don't care what kind of players the Chinese team needs.
"It's easy to say, now the top and the fans like Yiyang so much. With a few of us, what are you going to wrestle with him? β
"No, don't you forget, don't you have to listen to our call for that ghost coach Deng Huade? We said that Yiyang was injured and asked him to reduce Yiyang's playing time! When the time comes, we will win and reach the quarterfinals with the efforts of the players in the system, and you and I will definitely be rewarded! In terms of political achievements, a strong stroke will also be added! β
"Yes, Yi Jianlian played a season with the Mavericks and performed well. Zhou Peng and Guo Allen, the two stunned youths, are also full of energy, I see, we are not weaker than others! Anyway, we're Asian champions too! The fat man who spoke seemed to have forgotten who led the national team to the Asian championship last year.
Several people hit it off and decided to work together to behead Yiyang, a "disobedient" saboteur. Wang Zhizhi, who was all the rage back then, didn't the Basketball Association also say that it would be banned? A hairy boy who has not dried up is afraid that he will not succeed?
So on the first day that Yiyang finally met with the team, Deng Huade received an incredible will from the officials of the Basketball Association. "Yiyang has an injury to his left leg now, and he doesn't want to play hard. So, you try to control his playing time as much as possible during the game. β
βhatοΌοΌβ Listening to the officials of the Basketball Association, Deng Huade, the Yankee, was completely confused. If Yiyang is really injured, then Yiyang should personally tell himself why it is now a few officials who are not involved in the training at all to inform him of Yiyang's injury.
"This is Yiyang's own meaning, we are just responsible for conveying it. After all, he is the future of Chinese basketball! We can't let him repeat Yao Ming's old path, we have to protect him! β
The officials of the Basketball Association flickered in front of Deng Huade, and at the same time bought newspapers to release fake news.
"Yiyang said that he was injured and didn't want to play for too long!"
"Yiyang is suspected of fraud? Insider: He doesn't want to play for China. β
"Just for money, Yiyang will not work hard in the Olympic arena."
All sorts of negative reports about Yiyang spread throughout China before the Olympics began, and those pedantic guys were really familiar with the two-faced thing. Otherwise, they wouldn't be at the lowest level.
Although he only came to London to report on the 11th, Deng Huade clearly saw that Yiyang's performance on the training ground was impeccable, and the speed of integration into the team was also very fast. Because they have been teammates in the Mavericks for a year, Yi Jianlian and Yiyang are also very harmonious, and the two often chat together.
At this time, Deng Huade understood. If you don't follow their plan, you are likely to lose your job.
Do you want to help those villains fulfill this lie? The key to all this is actually on Deng Huade.
On July 27, the grand opening ceremony of the London Olympic Games, Yiyang, Wen Xue and Vignali participated in this grand event. Unfortunately, Vignali and Wen Xue could only stand in the stands, while Yiyang had to stand in the center of the field as the athlete representative of the Chinese team.
Deng Huade looked at the gorgeous fireworks, behind these things, and the darkness behind them? He has been in China for so many years, but he still doesn't understand the Chinese very well.
"You know what? If I let you start tomorrow, I might lose my job! Under the lively event, Deng Huade came to Yiyang's ear.
"I'm not going to embarrass you Bob, I know what they're planning. Big deal, I'm quitting. Yiyang spread his hands, he was not a player in the system, and he did not have any Chinese pride in living in the United States all year round. He chose to join the national team simply because the opinions of his mother and Duffy made him feel that he should join. He didn't bother to play a game of intrigue with that group of people, the Olympics, and enjoying basketball was the first goal.
"Aren't you afraid that you will be banned by the national team?" Deng Huade looked at Yiyang in dismay, this kid's calmness may not be possessed by many veterans.
"Why should I be afraid? I'm honored to be able to play for my country, but if I can't, it's nothing. Yiyang spread his hand.
"You know what? I'm not afraid! "Deng Huade waved his fist, go fucking conspiracy! The game of basketball can't be tainted by these messes!
The next day, the men's basketball group stage of the London Olympics officially began. In the first game, the Chinese team met the powerful Spain. Although Yiyang is there, Chinese fans dare not expect the Chinese team to win.
So the most important thing for fans in this game is not the result, but whether Yiyang will play and how long will he play?
But as soon as the game began, all the Chinese fans let out their excited yells. Yiyang started the game, and as soon as he started, he smashed Gasol's head violently! Those bullshit news are just nonsense!
At this time, several guys who planned the premeditated plan were red-eyed.
"That guy Deng Huade must not be used anymore!" One of them shouted, but he didn't know that it was himself who was about to face great disaster.
Yiyang played 35 minutes in the whole game, and the lie that he didn't want to play for the country due to injury was self-defeating. Although the overall disparity in strength of the team, the Chinese team still lost. But Yiyang's 28 points and 14 assists allowed all Chinese fans to walk out of the court with their heads held high.
In the next two rounds, the Chinese team defeated Russia under the leadership of Yiyang and defeated Australia, which had a rough style of play. Subsequently, Yiyang used a crazy 35-point game to help the team defeat Brazil. Facing the weak host British team, Yiyang did not give the Britons who were fighting at home any face. With 31 points, 13 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks, Yiyang led the Chinese team to an unprecedented four-game winning streak with a dominant performance!
"Yiyang, this young man led the Chinese team to set a historical record! Four consecutive victories in the Olympic Games, this is an unprecedented feat in the Chinese basketball Olympic arena, and it is likely that there will be no one in the future! Let's remember him, he, together with Yao Ming, will become an indelible monument in the history of Chinese basketball! After the game, the famous "Wei Ping. Bryant couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and praised Yiyang.
And Yiyang's excellent performance naturally made the senior management praise both him and Deng Huade. As for the news that came out of nowhere, the top management of the Basketball Association has already checked it below.
Suddenly, the situation took a 180Β° reversal. Those guys who originally wanted to monopolize power have been desperately saying good things about Yiyang and Deng Huade recently. Deng Huade almost couldn't help laughing when he faced the praise of several officials, and the twist of this story was inevitably too big.
After that, the Chinese team lost to Argentina in the knockout round and stopped in the quarterfinals. But the miracle of four consecutive wins in the group stage is enough to make Yiyang brilliant in China for a while.
In 2008, Yao Ming led the Chinese team to win 2 games, and he was already called great. Now, 4 years later, Yiyang, who is blue, directly shocked the world with a wave of four consecutive wins, and the word "great" is obviously no longer enough to describe his performance.
After two more days in the UK after the Olympics, Yiyang and Vignari returned to the US for a new season.
Before getting on the plane, Yiyang's mobile phone received several news pushes. - "Several Basketball Association officials are now under investigation for their involvement in disrupting team unity. β
Yiyang smiled, some people's luck is really bad. The era of the Basketball Association banning players on its own has passed, and basketball games still have to be led by players wearing jerseys......
