Eighty-nine, the final battle
In the eyes of the local police, they are associations, but for the Chinese, they are a hometown association to help them settle down and live in peace. Such an organization has greatly reduced the phenomenon of Chinese people pitting Chinese, and also reduced the status quo of Chinese being bullied in a foreign land, and Hongqing Group is such an organization.
In fact, a long time ago, they also had a name: Hongmen Green Gang.
Many Chinese in Chinatown in New York will give things that they don't need to the Hongqing Group after leaving, but they deal with them, these wooden stakes are gifts from the owners of those martial arts halls after they leave, and they have not opened restaurants in Chinatown in these years, so Li Wu knows very well where to find these things.
He Dabao bought twelve wooden stakes, and now they are all placed in the three-point line, with horns, elbow areas, short horns, and paint areas, which seem to match the space densely, and the wooden sticks on the wooden stakes further occupy a lot of space, so the gap in the three-point line can only allow one person to pass, and some can't even pass, at least Abby feels that he can't pass without dragging the wooden stake.
Li Wu nodded to He Dabao and said, "Good job, brother!" Then he took a ball, stood in front of a wooden stake in the horn area, started a step and then went to the basket with the ball, and in the process, he went through four wooden stakes and then made an easy dunk.
This stunned Abby on the side, because when he was passing through the wooden stake, Abby found that Li Wu used his steps to almost fold his body and cross a gap that was almost impossible to pass through, and then still maintained the bounce power to be able to shoot.
"Oh! No, no, no! Wait a minute! Li, you do it again, let me shoot a few videos, if your training videos are broadcast, maybe it will set off a craze, Chinese kung fu plus basketball, this gimmick is fantastic! Abby excitedly pulled out the camera and said.
Li Wu fulfilled Abby's request, he did the same thing in the elbow area, the short corner area, and the wing, and after one step, he used the tracking of strange movements to avoid the wooden stake and make layups, each time in three steps.
"It's the first time I've seen someone go to the basket in so many different positions, oh my God! I think Kentucky is going to be in big trouble, even though they're the best interior in the NCAA. Abby said heartily.
In fact, Li Wu used a step martial art called "Divine Changes". The emphasis is on carrying out all kinds of strange movements in the high-speed march to avoid attacking their own weapons and fists and feet, it is a martial arts specially created for the enemy and I am outnumbered, and we need to fight out of the encirclement, the old man handed over Li Wu this kung fu when he said: If you find that there are three people who are comparable to you in kung fu besieging you, immediately use this step to escape, can protect you from death!
This is one of the martial arts that Li Wu has learned, and now, he is going to use it, for the NCAA championship.
In the next few days, Li Wu was on the training ground during the day and trained in the warehouse at night, combining the magic and layups as perfectly as possible, Ajiali has not come to the training hall of Columbia University since she met a bunch of media that day, but lived in the villa that her father bought for herself in New York, Abby will go to the villa to accompany her after following up with Li Wu at night, obviously Ajiali wants to rob Li Wu from Abby's father The matter did not affect their relationship at all.
A few days passed quickly, on April 2, Li Wu and his team flew to Indianapolis, the capital of Indiana, although there were still two days before the game against Kentucky, but every corner of Indiana's largest city could feel the heat of the NCAA, and all the bars on the street hung promotional slogans in front of their doors: On April 4, we will not only have wine, burgers, but also the live broadcast of the Final Four.
In addition, Li Wu will be recognized by many people when he walks on the street, and if it is an American, most of them will wave at Li Wu and shout: "Hey! Well done Chinese boy, this March is yours! ”
If it was black, they would shout at Li Wu with a black accent: "Hey, buddy, you're so good!" I'm on my knees watching you finish the game! ”
If it were Chinese, most of them would shout at Li Wu in Chinese: "Come on!" ”
If it was an old overseas Chinese, most of them would smile at Li Wu in Mandarin with a Chaoshan accent and say, "Hou Shengzi, take the first!" ”
Of course, many people will come to take photos with Li Wu and ask for autographs, many times Li Wu needs the cover of his teammates to walk through the short distance from the parking lot to the hotel or to the stadium, of course, there are also reporters here with long guns and short guns, not only for Li Wu, but also for Columbia players.
This situation has brought many players back to the state of the first game of March Madness: nervous! Because they were facing more attention, Maodore told Li Wu that the basketball teams of Barcelona and Real Madrid had sent people to the city to watch him play, and to see how excited he looked.
"I always thought you wanted to play in the NBA. But it looks like you're interested in Spain too. Li Wu said in surprise.
"Lee, my friend, I want to stay in the NBA, but after entering March Madness, this idea is getting weaker and weaker in my heart, because I see the gap between me and those people, not to mention Stanley, Decker and other lottery prediction players, even if some teams' bench players play better than me, I think I still have a distance from the NBA, and I am 23 years old this year, which is almost equal to no potential to tap, and not everyone has the enviable talent of yours." In the hotel's café, Maodore revealed to Li Wu for the first time that he had entered March Madness.
Li Wu didn't know how to comfort Maodore for a while, the NBA is a business league, basketball is a business in the NBA, and it is true that you can't enter the NBA without value, in fact, since James was born, the NBA team has become more and more obsessed with young potential stocks, and guys like Maodore who have been playing in college for three years are indeed not the ideal candidates for those teams as cornerstones.
As if seeing Li Wu's embarrassment, Maodore smiled open-mindedly: "Man, don't be like this, in fact, we are all very grateful to you." Really, because in every knockout game in March Madness, only the winner stands out and the loser is out! In this damn March, carnival and loneliness are constantly staged. And the university career is only four years. How hard it is to break through the thousands of universities in the United States. Some people can't even make it to the final March Madness to play a game in their lifetime, but we have become the lucky ones, so now we have the opportunity to dedicate ourselves to fight for ourselves, for the school, for the family, for the honor, and it's all because of you. ”
When Maodore said this, Li Wu already had a hunch that he and his teammates at Columbia University might only have to play the last two games, maybe, one.
