After a "pleasant" conversation with the staff of Adidas, Adidas immediately began to put the signature shoes into production.

The current commercial value of Yiyang is immeasurable, and taking advantage of the current hurry to launch Yiyang's signature shoes, Adidas will definitely make a lot of money.

As soon as the matter of the signed shoes is finalized, this also means that Yiyang officially starts his holiday life.

Training, business events, the Asian Championships and even the recruitment of the team...... After Yiyang became popular, the trouble that came with it was that he had less and less time for himself during the holidays.

"Going to France for a business competition?" When Yiyang heard Duffy's "instructions" on the phone, he was quite reluctant in his heart. He originally wanted to take advantage of the current trip to Brazil with Vignarie, but now it seems that his trip to Brazil with Vignari can only be put on hold for the time being.

"It's an event arranged by Adidas, and if you like it, they're allowing you to bring Vignari along. Business competition, it's like ...... Oh, it's like an NBA Masters! There's no gender here, and it doesn't care about winning or losing, people just want to see the stars play, that's all. Duffy explained to Yiyang on the phone, and when he heard that he could bring Vignari with him, Yiyang's brow instantly relaxed.

"If I'm not mistaken, the French should have had more passion for football." He is going to Europe again, which can't help but remind Yiyang of his previous experience when he and Vignari went to Italy. In Italy, many people don't know who Yiyang is, because most Italians don't watch basketball at all! In Europe, a country where football is regarded as its life, how could a commercial basketball game suddenly be arranged?

"It's true that the basketball market in France is not as good as football, but it's not completely unnoticed. No, Adidas has reached a partnership with Ligue 1 side Saule, and Saule wants to increase the commercial value of the team. So the two sides hit it off and held this business competition. Adidas is responsible for recruiting star players to play an exhibition match against the Saulet. You happen to be the celebrity spokesperson for Adidas' biggest brand now, so this important event is definitely for you. It's okay, just go to France, that game won't take you too much time. ”

Yiyang shook his head, is it a frenzy beach in Brazil? It seems that there is only next time......

※※※

When it comes to France, Yiyang is the first to think of football, and the second is football. However, when he came to Saulai, his eyes were not attracted by football, but by the exotic atmosphere that was completely different from the United States and China.

Saulet, a small town on the banks of the Muvannes River in northwestern France, has a population of just 52,000. If such a small place were placed in the United States, it would definitely be dilapidated.

But when Yiyang and Vignali walked out of the airport, they were captivated by the retro scenery of Saurae.

Although not the most famous city in France, Saulet is a transport hub in the northwest. Many railways are located here, and Saurai has been a strategic location throughout history.

During the bourgeois revolution in France, there was a war here. To this day, there are several remnants of the war that have been left behind in Saulai, which have become a local specialty.

Although there are no sunny beaches, tropical vibes, passionate bikini beauties, palm trees swaying in the sea breeze. But Shaolai's quiet and peaceful appearance still made Yiyang feel very relaxed.

It seems that in this town, life is always so peaceful. You don't have to worry about the damn NBA Finals, you don't run into the obnoxious San Antonio Spurs, you don't have to deal with annoying reporters, and you don't have to pretend to be high at fake business dinners. Here, what people enjoy most is life itself!

"It's unbelievable that there is a professional basketball team of its own in such a place. Moreover, it is also a Ligue 1 team! ”

Ligue 1 is in France, and that's the highest level of basketball. With a population of nearly 2 million, Cleveland is often referred to as a small market in the NBA. And what about Saulai, which has a population of only 52,000? What words should they use to describe their team? It is worth mentioning that the team also reached the UEFA Champions League last season. It can be seen from this that the strength of a team has nothing to do with the size of the city it is in.

On the first day after arriving in France, Yiyang did not meet with the Adidas team, but took Vignari on a good tour in Saulai. In the evening, the two attend a local bonfire party on the banks of the Muwana River.

Blowing a cool breeze from the riverside, the experiencer has a unique exotic party, and Yiyang finds that it seems to be a good experience to run to these small places once in a while.

With the warm hospitality of the local residents, Yiyang and Vignali drank a lot of local wine. This wine tastes as good as juice, but late at night, the alcohol crawls down your throat and up your brain, innervating your nerves.

So, under the influence of alcohol, Yiyang and Vignari spent a night of ecstasy in a small rented villa on the bank of the river.

The moonlight crossed the river and shone through the window on a naked man and woman. Who would have thought that Yiyang, who has always been wooden, would occasionally be full of emotion? The night in a small French town is much more ecstatic than in the cosmopolitan city......

※※※

I have to admit that French wine is indeed a hundred times better than the whiskey in American nightclubs. At least after waking up the next day, Yiyang and Vignari didn't feel any discomfort.

The two got up early, walked around the riverside, and then took a car to join the Adidas team. Once they meet, they will make their way to the arena of the Saulai basketball team.

Seeing Yiyang, an NBA-level MVP player, appear in Shaolai, the Adidas team couldn't be happier. In this exhibition match alone, Yiyang will receive an appearance fee of $200,000. This does not include other incentive fees. Although the price of inviting Yiyang is very expensive, Adidas believes that the arrival of Yiyang will definitely make the team of Saulai resounding throughout France!

When Yiyang appeared in the arena of the Saule basketball team along with other European basketball stars hired by Adidas, many players and even coaches of the Saule team did not hesitate to gather around and ask for Yiyang's autograph. You know, they're rivals later!

But among them, there is one guy who caught Yiyang's attention. Just when all the Shaolai team players gathered around to take a photo with Yiyang, a big man wearing a Shaolai jersey warmed up under the basket by himself.

Even though it was just an exhibition match, the guy seemed to be very seriously prepared. Yiyang smiled, and secretly looked forward to that guy's performance later.

The game started very quickly, and the stadium in Saulai was naturally unattended. But it is worth mentioning that this game was also broadcast live on many French televisions, after all, it is indeed a very rare thing to play in France.

There may not be many basketball fans in France, but almost all basketball fans have their eyes on this game.

On the field, Yiyang played quite easily. Although Saule is a professional team in Ligue 1, in Yiyang's opinion, the strength of this small team may not even be comparable to the Dallas Mavericks' Development League team.

Yiyang played easily on the court, and he even deliberately used a lot of fancy moves that he only dared to play on the street court to win the applause of the fans.

When Yiyang assisted Vignari with a classic elbow pass, the Italian girl was so excited that she almost didn't hug Yiyang directly and offered a fragrant kiss.

Yiyang and Vignali, the "husband and wife", have completely become the protagonists of the audience, and almost everyone is watching this game for them.

Yiyang is playing more and more easily on the court, and he has completely entered the state of enjoying the simple fun of basketball.

In the fifth minute of the second quarter of the game, Yiyang broke through with the ball as always. He used a beautiful quick succession to switch back, and the young defenders of the Saule team couldn't find the north.

An acceleration, Yiyang easily entered the inner line. He jumped straight and looked like it was going to be another easy layup. However, in the next second, Yiyang's eyes were dark, and he seemed to be blocked by someone.

"Bang!" With a slam of time, Yiyang was knocked to the ground! And the basketball he shot was also slapped out by someone!

Yiyang looked up and saw that it was none other than the center of the Shaolai team who had just warmed up alone in earnest!

Everyone at the scene was stunned, what the hell is this young man doing!? Is he going to fight!? That guy, was his brain hit hard by the door of the locker room?

People were worried that Yiyang would get angry, but Yiyang got up silently with a faint smile. I didn't expect that in a place like Saulai, there would be such a strong enemy! Instead of making Yiyang angry, that big man made him excited!

Yiyang's mentality began to change, and this guy gradually became serious. Yiyang was blocked and replaced by the Shaolai team to attack.

Saulet's captain small forward Plum's shot from beyond the three-point line was ridiculously off, perhaps because he was competing with an international superstar like Yiyang, which made Plame a little too nervous.

At the moment when the basketball knocked out of the frame, the tall center who had just blocked Yiyang jumped up suddenly! The athleticism of the white man's center made Yiyang's mouth open wide in surprise. Originally, the other party was just a typical European heavy fortress, but the other party was a fierce "bird and beast"!

In the air, the big white man stretched out his long arms and picked up the rebound like a chicken, and without waiting for the landing, he directly made up for the dunk!

"Boom!" There was a loud bang, which made the fans of the Saulai team in the stands applaud like thunder. Yiyang is indeed an NBA-level superstar, but we also have our own star players.

Yiyang laughed out loud with joy, this maverick guy really didn't let himself down.

In the next ball, Yiyang deliberately killed the inside, the purpose was to challenge the tall center with terrible athleticism. In the air, Yiyang used a hand-changing lever to barely dodge the opponent's block and score without danger.

This kind of "tightrope walking" excitement made Yiyang find the passion to play this exhibition match, and at the same time, Yiyang was also very curious, who was that little-known big and tall man?

In the following game, Yiyang saw that guy's dominance in rebounding, and his secondary offensive ability to directly and violently dunk after grabbing an offensive rebound.

Of course, Yiyang, who has been in physical contact with him, also felt the power of that seemingly emaciated guy who was actually very powerful.

Although he thought it was incredible, Yiyang still had to admit that that guy's physical condition had completely reached the NBA level! Although the technique is a little rougher, for a defensive center, he even let Yiyang see that Tyson. Chandler's Shadow.

So why would such a talented young center forward still play in a small team like Saulet?

With doubts, Yiyang kept testing that guy. And the center of Shaolai also surprised Yiyang again and again.

His arm span is very exaggerated, and then he accelerates the terrifying bounce, so that every time this guy jumps up and blocks Yiyang, it seems to weave a big net that is difficult to cross.

Yiyang dares to guarantee that the vast majority of NBA-level guards have no way to survive under his defense!

However, despite the presence of this unknown "super center", Yiyang still led the Adidas Stars team to an easy victory over the Saulai team.

After the game, Yiyang took the initiative to walk to the coach of the Shaolai team. The coach of the Saulai team thought that Yiyang would say a few words to him, but unexpectedly, the Chinese wearing the black Adidas jersey pointed to his proudest player with his finger.

"Mr. Coach, that guy, what's his name?"

"Haha, you think he's great, right! That young man, but the pride of all of us in Saulai! When he was still in the youth team of Saulet, I knew that guy was a good seedling! Seeing Yiyang mention the center, the coach of the Saulai team also showed a proud smile on his face.

This expression is exactly the same as when Stevens talks about Yiyang with others.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Yi, I forgot to answer your question. The kid's name was Rudy. Gobert, by the way, he's going to be in this year's NBA Draft. If all goes well, this might not be your last fight with him! ”

"Participate in the draft!?" Yiyang's eyes suddenly lit up, this trip to France was really full of surprises.
