Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji glanced at each other, Sima Shenji raised his chin, Li Changgeng understood, and said, "Nongguang, I asked you to come out because I have something to tell you." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"What?" Nong Guang was stunned, "So mysterious? ”

"I won't make it public yet, only the coach knows." Li Changgeng said, "I'm leaving." ”

Nongguang's body stiffened, turned his head to look at Li Changgeng, his face could not hide his surprise, and he said nervously: "Go, where are you going?" Master, you're not kidding. ”

"No kidding, I'm really leaving." Li Changgeng smiled and said: "I want to go abroad, go to the United States, I have already contacted that side, I should study there, and study while playing." ”

Nong Guang was stunned, a little difficult to accept.

Seeing this, Li Changgeng smiled silently and bitterly, looked at Sima Shenji, Sima Shenji couldn't help but sigh, patted Nongguang, and said, "Nongguang, don't be like this, Li Changgeng is leaving, and I am leaving." We also hope that you can carry Hongcheng, we will be very worried about you like this. ”

"You're also leaving, also going abroad?" Nongguang suddenly raised his head.

"It's not." Sima Shenji shook his head and said, "Originally, I had that plan, but then I decided not to go abroad." The situation in my house is special, and I am afraid that something will happen if I leave. ”

"Oh." Nongguang reacted at this time, Sima Shenji is already in his third year of high school and will graduate this year.

Although Sima Shenji did not go abroad, he was also leaving Hongcheng after all, which made Nongguang difficult to accept for a while. They just won the championship in the finals today, but in the evening he learned that the two cores of the team were leaving, and the two were gone, so what should the team do?

After entering the team for so long, Nongguang already has feelings for the team, he looked at Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji, and said bitterly: "You are all gone, what about the team?" ”

"That's why I'm looking for you." Li Changgeng said, "We are all gone, you have to carry the team, and we don't want to win the championship this year, and we will immediately become a fish belly team next year." ”

"Me?" Nongguang pointed to his nose and said in amazement, "Master, you're not joking, where can I do it." ”

"You can do it." Sima Shenji said, "Li Changgeng and I are very optimistic about you, and your physical fitness is very good. ”

"That's the master, I'm not that good." Nongguang is weak.

Li Changgeng patted him and said with a smile: "Okay, I said you can do it, you can do it, and if you can't do it, you have to do it." Don't talk nonsense, we didn't come to you to ask for your opinion, but to assign you tasks. When you return to the city, in addition to the daily training at school, you will have to practice with us. Before Sima Shenji and I leave, we will try our best to help you so that you can ascend as soon as possible. ”

"Can I say no?"

"I can't." Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji said in unison.

In fact, Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji have already exchanged opinions with Tao Ran, and Tao Ran also thinks that Nongguang's potential is amazing, but the time he has been in contact with basketball is too short, and many things are lacking, if he grows up, he will definitely be an ace player.

Therefore, he is also very in favor of Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji opening a small stove for Nongguang, because he will rebuild the team around Nongguang in the future.

As far as Li Changgeng is concerned, he also wants to help Nongguang as much as possible before leaving, which can be regarded as helping Hongcheng. In addition, he also wanted to teach Sima Shenji and Nongguang as much as possible the things that Xiao Er handed over to him, hoping to help them.

......

The next day, the people of Hongcheng left Beijing and rushed back to Hongcheng.

On the way, Li Changgeng called Xiao Li and told Xiao Li about his decision, and also told Xiao Li about Sima Shenji's decision. Xiaoli agreed on the phone and told Li Changgeng that he would contact Jordan as soon as possible, and the two sides would finalize the specific time of the trip after consultation, and he would be notified when the time came.

At the same time, Beijing, the Basketball Association.

This is a conference room, where several Basketball Association officials sit, a total of five people, two of whom are Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba.

Several people were holding a report in their hands, which was an evaluation report submitted by Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba after inspecting Li Changgeng, Sima Shenji, Li Tianming, and Jiang Junye.

A few minutes later, several people put down their reports.

"Guys, what do you think after reading it?" Wang Xianbadao.

Among the five people, in addition to Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba, there is also an old man in his fifties with gold-wire glasses, a middle-aged woman, a middle-aged man with a fat body, some dark skin, and a straight face, looking like a black-faced god.

At this time, the middle-aged woman was the first to speak, and said, "Lao Huang, Lao Wang, your report is very detailed and concise. From the data to the personal experience of the players, the team's record, etc., there are detailed introductions, although I have not met these four young people, but after reading your report, I already have an understanding in my heart, and what impressed me the most was Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji. ”

Hearing this, Wang Xianba and Huang Jingao couldn't help but be happy in their hearts, and the other party said this, which means that they are optimistic about Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji, which coincides with their ideas.

"Lao Liu." Golden looked at the black-faced god, "What about you?" ”

The black-faced god pondered for a while and said, "I think it's too one-sided to evaluate a player based on the report alone. "It is worthy of the black-faced god, and as soon as he opened his mouth, Huang Jingao's face sank. However, his next words immediately made Huang Gao feel comfortable, "However, judging from these data, I think Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji are indeed very good, 40+ games in a row, which is not something that ordinary people can do, even if it is only a national league." ”

"yes, yes." The gold is high, and it feels a lot more pleasing to the eye when he looks at the black-faced god.

The middle-aged woman and the black-faced god both spoke, and several people looked at the old man sitting on the top, and Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba were also a little nervous.

This old man's surname is Zhang, known as Luo Lao, but he is not an ordinary person, but the top boss of several people, one of the main leaders of the Basketball Association.

"Ahem...... "Ahem" Luo Lao coughed lightly twice and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous, I also appreciate these two young people, who averaged 40+ per game in the finals, and two of them were 40+ at the same time." By the way, in the last game, Sima Shenji scored 52 points alone, right? ”

Wang Xianba nodded in a row, "Yes, 52 points, and 10 assists." ”

"That's it." Luo Lao said, "Being able to cut down such data shows how powerful this Li Changgeng is." Of course, that Sima Shenji is not bad, and both of them can be said to be geniuses. He looked at Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba with a smile, "Just choose these two young people, you two will have a trip." ”

"Okay." Wang Xianba said with a smile.

"We'll leave tomorrow." Gold high also connected the road.

At eight o'clock in the evening, Hongcheng basketball court.

Although now that they have won the championship and the season is over, the training of the city team has not stopped, and under the supervision of Tao Ran, the training has become more rigorous.

Although many team members don't know yet, Tao Ran already knows that Li Changgeng is leaving, Sima Shenji is also leaving, and there are two less generals at once, and he must be stricter with others and let them improve as much as possible, so that he can have enough strength to impact the provincial championship and even the championship next year.

At eight o'clock, the training was over, and the players dispersed, but Li Changgeng, Sima Shenji, and Nong Guang were still training.

"Nongguang, do you understand? That's it, yes, footsteps matter. Li Changgeng is walking under the demonstration basket for Nongguang.

Nong Guang nodded, holding the basketball himself, learning from Li Changgeng just now, with his back to the basket, his body on top of it, and then turned around suddenly, away from the basket, and made a gesture to shoot, but he didn't shoot, just a meal, and then the pivot foot remained the same, the retreating foot went forward, and both feet jumped up at the same time.

This is a feint to turn around and jump under the basket to attract the opponent to jump, and then take the opportunity to swoop down, drill under the opponent's body, and shoot.

Li Changgeng did this action handily and in one go, but Nongguang made it a little clumsy, and the rhythm was not right.

Of course, with his height of more than two meters, it would be good to be able to make it completely.

"Li Changgeng, I really don't know where he learned it, why is he so familiar with the center's steps under the basket and the inside offensive skills?" Sima Shenji watched Li Changgeng give Nongguang Normal on the side, and he felt very curious in his heart.

After a while, Nongguang stopped, changed Sima Shenji, and countered Nongguang to be a sparring partner.

This is Sima Shenji's job, Li Changgeng is responsible for teaching, and he is responsible for being a sparring partner, after all, he is more than 1.9 meters, although he still suffers under the basket, but Li Changgeng can't be allowed to be this sparring partner, right?

Ten minutes later, Nongguang and Sima Shenji stopped.

Of course, this does not mean that their training today is over, just a short rest.

After resting for a while, Nongguang began to practice shooting, and Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji went head-to-head in the other half, and Li Changgeng also explained some basketball knowledge to Sima Shenji. Although Sima Shenji knows a lot, it is much worse than Sima Shenji with the guidance of Xiao Er.

It wasn't until 10 p.m. that the training was over.

The three of them were so tired that they lay down and sat on the edge of the court, gasping for breath.

"Nongguang, remember to massage with the massage techniques I taught you before going to bed, and continue training tomorrow." Li Changgeng smiled and told Nongguang. As for Sima Shenji, there is no need for it, as early as when he participated in Kobe's training camp, Li Changgeng taught him massage techniques.

"Well, I remember." Nong Guanglian nodded.

He has been practicing with Li Changgeng and them in the past few days, and Rao can't bear it with his physical fitness, but fortunately, he has this set of magical massage techniques. He was already late to the sweetness, so naturally he would not forget.

Sima Shenji suddenly turned his head to look at Li Changgeng and said, "By the way, I've always been curious, how do you know so much?" ”

"I've learned from reading books." Li Changgeng naturally couldn't say that it was taught by Xiao Er, so he only smiled, "If you read more books, you can know so much, do you want me to tell you those books?" ”

"How many copies are there?" Sima Shenji said.

"Not much, probably fifty or sixty copies."

"Uh...... Forget it, you've already seen it anyway, you can tell me. Sima Shenji stuck out his tongue, causing Li Changgeng and Nong Guang to laugh.

......

The next morning, Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji were called to the bureau chief's office and met Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba, who had arrived from Beijing.

"It's you." Seeing Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba, Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji couldn't help but be surprised, they still had an impression of these two uncles who would sit next to the technical table every game.

"Huh." Huang Jingao smiled and introduced himself: "Hello, my name is Huang Jingao. Then, he pointed to Wang Xianba, "He is Wang Xianba." We are people from the Basketball Association, and there are some things for you. As he spoke, he looked at the director and said, "Director Liu, can you let us talk about it alone?" ”

"Yes, of course." The other party is a member of the Basketball Association, and Director Liu knows very well what this means, so he agreed with a smile.

"Thank you." Huang Jingao thanked him, and together with Wang Xianba, he took Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji outside.

After making sure that there was no one around, Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba stopped.

Wang Xianba said: "Do you know what to do with you?" ”

"I don't know." The two shook their heads.

"Hehe, don't be nervous, it's a good thing." Huang Jin said with a smile, "That's right, we are here to represent the Basketball Association this time and invite you to join the national company." As long as you agree, we will go through the formalities quickly, and then you will be a member of the national youth team. ”

"......" Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji were already stunned.

For a basketball player, there is absolutely no ignorance of the words "national corporation".

In fact, whether it is Li Changgeng or Sima Shenji, they all know very well what the words "national company" mean, that is almost the reserve of the national team, if you perform well in the national youth team, you have a great chance to enter the national team and compete for the country in the Asian Championships, the World Championships, and even the Olympic Games.

That is what almost every athlete dreams of, entering the national youth team, entering the national team, fighting for the country, and winning glory for the country!

Regarding Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji's reaction, Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba were very satisfied, surprised, shocked, and unbelievable...... That's right, who would be indifferent to entering the national youth team?

"Ahem...... Huang Jin Gao coughed lightly, waking up Li Changgeng and Sima Shenji, and said, "How about it, have you thought about it?" ”

"I do." Sima Shenji was the first to speak.

Originally, Sima Shenji was still hesitating, whether to enter the CBA professional team and play in the professional league, or go to college and play in the Super League, but now that he has such a good opportunity, of course he has nothing to hesitate. Regardless of whether it is CBA or cuB-a, it is definitely not as good as entering the national company.

"Hehe, congratulations on becoming a member of this year's national youth team." Huang Jin said to Sima Shenji with a smile, and then looked at Li Changgeng, "Li Changgeng, what about you?" "In the Golden High Imagination, this is also a formality, Sima Shenji has already agreed, can Li Changgeng be an exception?

However, what Huang Jingao didn't expect was that Li Changgeng was the exception, only to see him raise his head and say slowly but firmly: "I'm sorry, I can't agree." ”

"I'm sorry, I can't agree", this sentence was like thunder, shocking Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba for an instant, even Sima Shenji.

The three of them looked at Li Changgeng in unison and asked in unison, "Why?" ”

Facing the eyes of the three people, Li Changgeng pondered for a while and said, "It's not that I don't want to contribute to the country and win glory for the country." I love China, love the motherland that gave birth to me and raised me, and my biggest dream is to one day be able to help me Chinese basketball reach the top of the world. ”

"It's like table tennis, badminton, diving."

"I always believe that China, with a population of more than one billion people, should not lose to others no matter what it does."

"However, why has our basketball industry in China not improved for so many years?" Li Changgeng said, "We are not short of talent, we are not short of excellent interior players. The reason why basketball in our country has never improved is because we lack guards. ”

"In the 08 Olympics, we have Yao Ming, and we have roughly, but why did we only take the eighth?" Li Changgeng's voice was low, as if he was questioning.

Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba were shocked, glanced at each other, and couldn't help but sigh As people who have dedicated most of their lives to basketball, they know these things very well. As Li Changgeng said, China does not lack good interior lines, but it does not have good defenders, so its international results have not been ideal.

"I'm a defender and I can only be a defender." Li Changgeng sighed, "But I want to be a first-class defender, which is difficult to achieve at home, so I'm going abroad, I'm going to have a look, to see why there are so many good defenders abroad." ”

Wang Xianba said: "Li Changgeng, you are now a first-class defender. ”

"No, that's not enough." Li Changgeng shook his head, "I may be a first-class defender in China now, but what about the world?" I want to contribute to Chinese basketball, I want to make Chinese basketball go further, so I can't just be a first-class guard, I have to be a super guard. ”

"A defender who is also the best in the world!"

Li Changgeng's words poured into the hearts of Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba like a drum, and they were silent, looking at Li Changgeng blankly, as if they knew this young man for the first time.

They never imagined that a young man who was only seventeen or eighteen years old would be able to say such a thing.

Among the three, if you want to talk about the vibration, only Sima Shenji's vibration is the largest, he is one year older than Li Changgeng, but he found that he had never thought about this. He also thought about going abroad, he thought about the NBA, but it was just a fantasy, he never saw it as a goal and worked hard for it.

Now when he heard Li Changgeng's words, he suddenly woke up, and he finally understood what was the difference between himself and Li Changgeng, not talent, not others, but faith and determination!

Yes, Li Changgeng has beliefs that he does not have, and he has determination that he does not have, which he does not have, so he is always inferior to Li Changgeng.

After being surprised, Wang Xianba came back to his senses, looked at Li Changgeng and said: "You are right, our country does not lack excellent insiders, but it lacks excellent guards. Maybe we could have changed it at first, but it's hard to change that over time. ”

"It's a vicious circle, our domestic pattern is like this, our Chinese defenders are not inferior to others, but they can't fight well, and their style of play is also weak. Why is that? Not physique, but because the competition they participated in from the beginning was not fierce. There's no fierce confrontation, there's no pressure, so the players who grow up can't be strong against each other. ”

"Let's talk about foreign countries, why do people fight against each other? Physical fitness is one aspect, and more importantly, people have grown up like that since childhood. Since childhood, I have grown up in fierce confrontation, and I will naturally form a habit and develop an ability. ”

Wang Xianba's words can be said to be penetrating, whether it is Li Changgeng or Jin Jingao, Sima Shenji, they all nodded secretly when they heard it.

At this time, Wang Xianba's tone changed, and he said solemnly: "Li Changgeng, I am very happy that you have such revenge, and I sincerely support you." But have you thought about it? Is it really okay for you to go abroad? You're only in high school now, and if you go abroad to play in high school leagues, is it more useful than following the national youth team and playing in the World Youth Championships, Asian Youth Championships, and the Four Nations Youth League? ”

Hearing this, Huang Jingao's eyes lit up, and he secretly shouted hello to Wang Xianba in his heart, and said to Li Changgeng with a smile: "Yes, we have investigated, there are several high schools in the United States that have sent invitations to you and Sima Shenji, and if you want to go abroad, you must enter one of these high schools." ”

"But think about it, in the high school league, even in the United States, can the level of players compare to the players of our national youth team?"

"You have to be sober, American high school players are not all geniuses like James, Kobe, and Garnett." Jin Gao persuaded.

Wang Xianba also said: "Li Changgeng, it is better to enter the national youth team than to go to the United States to play in the high school league." I won't talk about the Asian Youth Championships, we are always the bosses, and you will definitely not meet many opponents. But in the World Youth Championships and the Four Nations League, the opponents are all Europeans and Americans, and the competition is fierce, and the water quality is very high, so you don't have to worry about not meeting the opponent and not having the opportunity to hone. ”

Hearing this, Sima Shenji thought so, and just wanted to persuade Li Changgeng, he saw Li Changgeng smile and said: "What if, instead of playing in the high school league, I play NCAA?" ”

For a moment, Sima Shenji was stunned, and Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba were also stunned.

Wang Xianba stared at Li Changgeng suspiciously and said, "Playing NCAA? No way, you're only in high school, how can you play NCAA? ”

"My friends over there helped me arrange a high school attached to the university, and while studying the knowledge of high school, I entered the varsity team there for further study, and at the same time participated in the NCAA as an international student."

After speaking, Li Changgeng looked at Sima Shenji with a smile and said, "How about it, think about it, go to California with me and play in the NCAA league." ”

The faces of Huang Jin Gao and Wang Xianba on the side changed slightly, and they said in their hearts that they would not be so unlucky, could it not have failed to persuade Li Changgeng to change his mind, but also had to pay for a Sima Shenji?

Huang Jingao and Wang Xianba looked at Sima Shenji nervously, for fear that he would suddenly change his attention, and if they couldn't recruit any of them at that time, they would be embarrassed.

Fortunately, Sima Shenji did not regret it, but shook his head with some pity and said, "Forget it, I still don't go abroad." ”

"Well, I'll tell you over there." Li Changgeng nodded.
