On September 15, 2007, Zhang Yu stepped on a plane to the United States with a vision for the future.

Founded in 1885, Stanford University is a 35-square-kilometer four-year private university located in Palo Alto, California, near San Francisco. Stanford University is one of the most prominent universities in the world, and the world university rankings regularly hang out in the top 10.

Zhang Yu, a scumbag, wants to rely on his academic performance to get in, but there is no door.

"What about being ranked high, don't you have to invite Lao Tzu in?"

The moment Zhang Yu walked into the door of Stanford, he thought with a stinky fart in his heart, and his full vanity rose again.

The head coach of the Crimson, Trent Johnson, personally went to the airport to take the opportunity and asked his daughter to take Zhang Yu around the city. Zhang Yu glanced at the black girl beside him, and directly rejected this Jianyì, and said that he wanted to go to the school's basketball hall first, looking uncomfortable when he couldn't see basketball for a few days.

However, Zhang Yu miscalculated, and when he found out that he was still the black girl who was the guide when he went to school, he wanted to find an excuse to go back to the hotel to rest.

The American college team basically started training in October, and now it's only September, and the team hasn't assembled yet. Of course, it's okay to start training early, and Trent Johnson will be happy that the training hall is still open. But there will be no group training programs, at most you can train in groups of two or three people, otherwise it will be a violation.

Zhang Yu's dormitory will take two days to move in, so the school has rented a room in a four-star hotel in the past few days and let Zhang Yu live in it first.

Some people will ask, Stanford University, as a world-famous university, can use Zhang Yu to ask trainers to train alone; After a while, I will help to review the commercial contract; Do you still have to eat, drink, and sleep after you are done, just like serving your uncle?

The answer is to use it, Zhang Yu's value is so high that it is impossible to imagine it without knowing the details, which is going to talk about the NCAA event.

Let's talk about NCAA coaches first, their annual salary is linked to the team's record, and the better the team's record, the more their salary and bonuses will be.

Basically, more than half of the coaches of the top 64 teams in the United States every year earn more than one million dollars a year. Like the famous old K coach, the old guy can get an annual salary of 8 million US dollars every year, not counting the championship bonus. The rest of the NCAA coaches of the big teams, even if they don't get as much as Lao K, are basically around $5 million.

Last year, Trent Johnson led the team to the round of 64 and although he was eliminated in the first round, he also made a million-dollar annual salary, but he is still a small salary among these college coaches.

After talking about coaching, let's talk about college.

In the United States, a strong college basketball team can bring in $20 million to $80 million a year, and if 5 to 10 percent of that money is paid to the person in charge of the program, if it is reasonable, how much is it worth as a core player who is as good as a coach or even better?

The answer is very valuable!

So how much is Zhang Yu worth?

This question is too easy to answer, a Chinese team that has never reached the quarterfinals can lead the Chinese team alone to defeat the United States team in the final and win the World Youth Championship. With such strength, after hearing that he joined Stanford University, the entire American college basketball community, especially the universities that have the strength to compete for the championship this year, although they will not be frightened, they are also worried, and they are already studying how to limit Zhang Yu at this moment, so you can imagine how valuable he is.

In fact, Stanford University also promised to arrange a house for Zhang Yu's parents in California, and was even willing to provide a high-paying job for the two. But after Zhang Yu signed the contract that made the little girl gnash her teeth, Zhang Zhihong and his wife felt that they were no longer short of money, and they didn't want to live and work in a foreign country, so they refused Stanford University's kindness. This also indirectly avoided the embarrassment of Zhang Yu falling into the black gold incident like Mayo afterwards.

However, Stanford University still decided to send Zhang Yu's tickets for every game in Stanford to his parents, no matter whether the two come to see it or not, as long as they come, Stanford University will be responsible for the round-trip tickets.

Even if you do this, it doesn't really cost much. If Zhang can win next year's tournament for Stanford, Stanford will earn at least $50 million more than last year. In the face of such high interests, it is estimated that even the "beauty trick" has been used in Chinese universities, so what is it to serve Zhang Yu as an uncle?

This is also the reason why Trent John actually used his dark and strong daughter as a guide for him, and Zhang Yu was so unhappy in his heart. Anyway, you have a blonde beauty, we are not black, and we are not interested in black pearls!

Inside the university, Trent Johnson did not continue to accompany Zhang Yu, leaving her daughter Kezia Johnson as a guide and left.

Kezia Johnson took Zhang Yu around the school for a while, and Zhang Yu was tired half to death! Damn, this school is too big, and in the end, Zhang Yu decided to go directly to the training hall and go back to the hotel, and the latter naturally would not object.

When the two arrived at their destination, they found the door of the training gym open, and Zhang Yu and Kezia Johnson went inside to check out the basketball training with his trainer in China, Elmer Burak.

Almer Burak is a trainer who went to China to train Zhang Yu for more than a month, saying that he is a trainer, and in Zhang Yu's eyes, he is more like a sparring partner. Aylmer is also the Crimson's offensive trainer, training players with complete offensive or defensive moves. Why is he like a sparring partner by Zhang Yu's side? That's because Zhang Yu's talent is too demonic, even in a place like China, where basketball teaching is backward, he can practice a perfect offensive and defensive skills, and he, a so-called trainer, can not direct, of course, it becomes like a sparring partner.

"Zhang, I know you're coming today, I've made a new training plan for you, and I hope you can devote yourself to the new training."

As soon as Zhang Yu saw Elmer, he immediately looked like he had eaten a fly, when this guy was in China, even the basic skill of dribbling had to be practiced by Zhang Yu repeatedly and non-stop.

"You guy, are you going to let me practice bullshit dribbling again? You're still in ambush here, how much salary did you get, so positive? ”

Almer Braque, in his forties, like many middle-aged white people in the United States, was a poor bald man, with a few hairs left on his head.

Zhang Yu trained with him for a month, and knew that he was a serious person about his work, not like an American at all, but like a German, always with an unsmiling expression, basically not talking nonsense. He has a unique understanding of basketball, believing that hard training can determine where a player can go on the line, and talent is just the entry requirement.

Training with such a person is very boring, and he will make you do a lot of side repetitions with one technique. It will even make you do a basic training session, and you will do it all day. For most players, it's an ordeal.

But Zhang Yu, a young player with more than most talents, complained all the time, but he really endured this boring training. This made Elmer know that Zhang Yu's success was definitely not accidental. Although Zhang Yu often skips class, sometimes he suddenly doesn't know where to go, and he goes in the morning or in the afternoon. But most of the time, Zhang Yu is able to endure this kind of boring training.

"It's not a dribble, it's a shot!" Aylmer said lightly.

"In a few days, I haven't gotten over the jet lag yet."

Without speaking, Elmer grabbed a basketball and threw it over.

"Vote for one first!"

Zhang Yu caught the basketball, drew an arc at the corner of his mouth, glanced at the basket that was almost halfway to the halfway point, a standard pull-up jumper, the basketball left the palm, drew a rainbow, and fell to the basket in the distance.

"Three don't stick!"

Aylmer looked at him expressionlessly: "It seems that you need to do your best to reverse the jet lag!" ”
