Therefore, Yan Ming immediately put on a smile on his face, put his posture to the lowest, and said very gently on the other end of the phone: "Why do you want to resign?" Isn't it a good job? ”

Li Chenglong on the other end heard Yan Ming's reply, and subconsciously rubbed his ears, he suspected that he had heard it wrong, how could the editor-in-chief be so good? How could he talk like that. So he asked suspiciously, "You... What do you mean? ”

"Oh, don't get me wrong. Maybe my attitude was a little irritable before, but I don't have bad intentions. The article you handed me the day before yesterday, I gave an inappropriate opinion. It's because I was reading competitive novels at the starting point at the time, and as you know, I like Hua Xiaoou's basketball novels the most. As a result, his violent striker was unfinished. I took my anger at him on you. But now that I know it was me who was impulsive, I apologize to you, I'm sorry! ”

Yan Ming's words came one after another, Li Chenglong still didn't understand what he meant, he continued to wonder: "You... What exactly is it trying to express? ”

"Well, my thought is, considering how hard you've been on the front lines in the U.S. for so many years, sending back reports for us. It's time to give you a pay increase, starting next month, your monthly salary will increase by 30 percent. Yan Ming said very generously.

"You... What's wrong with you? Li Chenglong, who was almost desperate, became a little hopeful because of his strict attitude, but he was afraid that it was a joke, so he asked very uncertainly.

"Jack, from now on, you can work with peace of mind, follow up and report on this player, and we will reimburse you for your travel expenses in the United States the next day, and we will never let you be wronged in life."

Yan Ming said the word Xiao Shao, Li Chenglong understood a little bit, he thought to himself, could it be that Xiao Shao's name has been transmitted back to China? How can it be? Not so fast.

"Follow-up reports?"

"Yes, follow up on the report, if you can establish a personal friendship with him, I don't mind if you are waiting for you twenty-four hours a day, and we will reimburse you for your expenses." Yan Ming said seriously.

"Okay, okay." After Li Chenglong was sure that he was not joking, he nodded, and then he asked the doubt in his heart: "Now that the country already knows about Xiaoxiao?"

"Of course, now the Internet has been hyped as Yao Ming's second. Haven't you read the ESPN report? You haven't watched the top five balls? Yan Ming asked suspiciously.

"Oh, I'll see right away, right away. Hang up first. Li Chenglong quickly hung up the phone, then turned on the computer and began to search today's ESPN homepage.

In the past two days, he has become a dog because of the fact that he is going to return to China. Where else is there any basketball, and now there is suddenly hope, and his motivation is rushing out all of a sudden.

When he saw the report full of beautiful words, he saw the goal that was a miracle stroke.

He finally understood why Yan Ming's attitude towards him was so good, it turned out that he wanted to get first-hand information.

Sure enough, it's a villain, and he doesn't scatter eagles when he doesn't see rabbits. If Xiao Shi hadn't become famous, I'm afraid I would have been approved to resign a long time ago!

Li Chenglong scolded him, but the work at hand still did not stop.

After all, life goes on. Although Yan Ming is a bastard, Qian is not a bastard. Scold his mother and earn his money.

For the hot discussion on domestic forums, as well as a lot of coverage in the American media.

I don't know anything about the chic in my sleep.

When he woke up the next morning, he immediately ordered breakfast service, and after washing up, he walked to the training hall.

There are only five days of training camp, and this is the third day, with most of the players leaving on the fourth day. Xiao Sa wants to seize the opportunity to perform well in training camp, although he has already won the commitment of the Thunder team. But who is not as much of a suitor admirer? In case the general manager of the Bulls is kicked in the head by a donkey and signs himself with the champion show, do you still have to refuse? The salary of the champion is more than one notch higher than the 24th pick in the first round. The twenty-fourth rank is a RMB multimillionaire, and the champion show is more than a real dollar multimillionaire!

But before Xiao Slang entered the training camp, someone immediately surrounded him, and there was more than one. There were nearly five or six, all holding voice recorders. Xiao Xiao looked down and saw that all of them were black hair and yellow skin.

"Hello Xiao, I'm a reporter for Sports Weekly. I came from Los Angeles overnight to interview you. A middle-aged man with dark circles under his eyes said loudly, "Can I ask you a few questions?"

This person spoke Mandarin, and Xiao Sa understood it at once. Although he was a little psychologically unresponsive to being surrounded like this suddenly, he quickly settled down: "Okay, no problem."

"Excuse me, where are you from? We don't know anything about your background, so we want to learn as much as we can and let the fans in China know more about your story. ”

"Uh... I'm in the Northeast. Xiao smiled and said, "Actually, I don't have a story on me." Now, it's a basketball player. Maybe basketball is a sport that has attracted a lot of attention, but in fact, as my teacher said, basketball is just a profession, just like electricians and plumbers, there is no difference. ”

Xiao Shi replied very calmly, without any shelf.

This made the reporters quite admired, they are used to seeing those domestic players who play big names, and now they are really a little happy that such a 'low-key' guy suddenly appeared, and it is not in vain that they accept orders to come quickly from major cities across the United States.

"We look at reports from our American counterparts that say you've only been practicing basketball for three months. Is this true? ”

"It's true. I didn't play basketball at all when I was back home. You know the teaching environment in rural areas in China, I have never seen basketball in junior high school. When I was in high school, I could see basketball, but physical education classes were basically encroached upon by homeroom teachers, and you should have had this experience too. Xiao Xiao laughed.

His self-deprecation also made journalists empathize, and those who have experienced domestic education understand. The phenomenon of physical education classes being requisitioned is already an unspoken rule in the domestic education circles.

"To reach this level in three months, your talent is amazing. I just read what the American media said about you, everyone thinks that you will definitely be selected, and some people even think that you can be selected in the first round, how are you feeling now? Can you tell us about that? ”

"I'm happy." The chic answer was short and sharp.

"Right now, the fans in China are paying a lot of attention to you, and if you're drafted, you're going to be the first shooting guard to log in to the NBA. Proud? ”

"Not proud." Xiao Shi shook his head and replied very honestly: "I don't have much concept of these things. ”

"Well, have you ever thought about representing the national team? This year's Olympics are held in Beijing, have you ever thought about joining the national team? ”

"If I had the opportunity and time, I would have no reason to turn down this honor." Xiao Shi nodded, and he replied in the affirmative.

Next, the reporter asked some other questions, and the chic answer was always with a smile, and finally said goodbye to the reporters in a friendly manner, and then entered the training hall for training.

When he came to the training hall, Westbrook hurriedly greeted him: "Hey, big star, how does it feel to press James to second place?" ”

Westbrook's quip immediately got the other players to join in.

The players in the draft are all concerned about basketball news, and almost all of today's news focus is directed at this Chinese rookie who was unknown yesterday, can they not be interested?

"What's in second place?" Xiao Sao asked rhetorically incomprehensibly.

"Didn't you watch yesterday's top five?"

"Nope."

"What about ESPN's special report?"

"Neither!"

"What about today's basketball newspaper?"

Xiao Shi still shook his head and explained: "You know, I don't have the habit of surfing the Internet, I don't have the habit of watching TV, I don't like to read newspapers, and I still don't know many words. My nightlife is nothing but sleep or sleep! ”

"Oh, my God. There are still such old-fashioned people! Westbrook held his head and let out a strange scream, and the rookies next to him thought the same way, they really had never seen this kind of person who didn't go online, didn't watch TV, and didn't read the newspaper, it was simply out of touch with the world.

"Alright, it's time for me to train. Russell, I don't have time to talk to someone like you who has booked a lotto show, and I'll have to work hard to do it. Xiao muttered to Westbrook angrily and stepped aside.

Seeing this, Westbrook said angrily to OJ Mayo and the others next to him: "No way, he is such an old-fashioned person." Nothing but practice! ”

OJ Mayo and others also thought so, they felt that Xiao Xiao didn't know how to live too much, how could there be such a boring guy.

But Xiao Sao felt that he was not boring at all, on the contrary, he felt very fulfilled. Living for one's own pursuit, fighting for one's own ideals, is there anything more fulfilling than this?

Xiao Shi walked to the side to train, and after a while, a man in a suit and leather shoes walked over: "Hello, Mr. Xiao San." I'm the deputy general manager of the Phoenix Suns, Eddie Curry, and I've watched your training videos and your sidelan, and I think your style of play is a perfect fit for us Phoenix. So, on behalf of my team, I invited you to a tryout in Phoenix, and we wanted to get to know you better. ”

"If there is time, I will definitely pass." Xiao said with a smile.

Eddie Curry hurriedly handed over his business card: "This is my business card, welcome to Phoenix at any time." ”

"Thank you for the invitation, it's my pleasure."

Shortly after the polite conversation between the two men, another man in a suit arrived, who also handed over his business card and introduced himself as the manager of the Dallas Mavericks, and similarly invited Xiao to come over for a tryout.

Next up are the Memphis Grizzlies, Houston Rockets, Satermento Kings, Minnesota Timberwolves and Golden State Warriors.

All of a sudden, Xiao Sao had seven more business cards in his hand. Now, he finally understood why Westbrook asked such a question before, and it turned out that he had really become a hot commodity.

Is it because of yesterday's game?

Xiao Sang thought suspiciously, he didn't expect a game to have such a big effect.

In fact, he is so popular today not only because of yesterday's game, but because of various factors.

……

Thanks to "You Hui Guanglan" and "I said I don't explain" respectively rewarded 588 starting coins.

The fourth is three thousand words, and there will be a chapter later.

PS, this kind of thing is like a festival, so throw it to me!
