Chapter 43: The International
The next day, Christine boarded the plane to Texas, because of her outstanding performance in the movie "Wilderness Survival", she was invited by director Catherine Hardwick to play the heroine of the film "Twilight", Christine knew that if this film was successful, it would mean that she would directly enter the ranks of the new generation of Hollywood actresses, no longer the wild girl who could only play a cameo role in the movie, so she could only give up some illusory things!
Christine sat on a chair, staring blankly at the scenery outside the window, white and vast, she couldn't see anything, she knew that she and Luo Yun were two shijie people, she had a greater pursuit, Hollywood movie stars were her goals, she hoped that one day she could live in Beverly Hills, wear the most gorgeous clothes, and go in and out of celebrity places, and what about Luo Yun? Kristen doesn't know!
She didn't want to leave regrets for herself, the two were like two parallel lines that would never intersect, meeting because of a chance collision, but the girl knew that everyone was a passerby in each other's travels, coming and going in a hurry!
Of course, Luo Yun doesn't know these things, he still lives a calm and comforting school life, classrooms, dormitories, basketball halls, almost every day, Vera occasionally goes to the school to see him, spend a leisurely weekend with him, watch a movie, drink a cup of coffee, lie in his arms and gently tell the interesting things he has seen in recent times, carefree life, very comfortable!
Leonard's guy occasionally came to Stevenson and Luo Yun to play against him, and the stinky boy mixed up in the high school league, an excellent No. 3 player, accurate shooting, and good awareness, which also made him a thorn in the side of many schools.
Fast forward to the spring of 2008
"I heard you killed someone last time you played against Thomson?" Luo Yun took out a bottle of mineral water from the table and threw it to Leonard, and quipped. He didn't like to drink carbonated drinks, so the dormitory was basically filled with mineral water, for which Leonard complained a lot about Luo Yun, and he spent himself like this every time he came to this kid.
"That's it!" Leonard unscrewed the cap of the bottle, took a big sip, and looked very proud: "That's a whistle, 2 meters in front of the midfield!" After speaking, Leonard directly compared a shooting action!
"Whoosh!"
Luo Yun looked at his friend's proud appearance, and suddenly felt a little helpless, this guy doesn't seem to have gotten rid of the joy of success in the lore, but he is also quite happy for his friend, after all, this guy entered the second team of Southern California high school stars, and he has such results in the second year, I have to say that this guy is really powerful!
Luo Yun has been decent in recent games, With 18.2 points, 6.7 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 2.4 steals, he is the best point guard in the Southern California High School League, and the Lakers have steadily improved their record until the last game, where they have won 17 in a row, which is unique in the history of the school team, and while this is a bit insignificant in the face of other all-time powerhouses, it is the best result for Stevenson since the school was founded.
Luo Yun and Leonard were sitting in the dormitory chatting, and were about to go out to compete, when suddenly, Luo Yun's mobile phone on the table suddenly rang.
Eddie? Luo Yun looked at his phone and felt a little surprised, the coach did not arrange unified training during this time, what was he calling for at this time? Could it be that he came up with some strange tricks?
"Hey! Barney! Luo Yun gave Leonard an apologetic look and answered the phone directly.
"Where's the little one?" Eddie's tone seemed more excited, as if there was some happy event, and he was not divorced! Could it be because that little lover of his is coming to San Francisco again?
"In the dormitory!" Luo Yun angrily yelled at the phone: "Barney, can you stop calling me little guy, I'm 16 years old!" Luo Yun has always been disgusted by Eddie's name, especially this year, he is 16 years old and he is still called a little guy, as if he hasn't grown up yet!
"Yo! It's quite angry! Hey! Eddie teased Luo Yun on the other end of the phone, with a smile in his words, it seemed that he was really in a good mood.
"Hey, what's the matter with me?" Luo Yun didn't want to tell Addido, so he went straight to the topic, and at the same time squeezed his eyebrows at Leonard on the side, looking very helpless!
"That's right, you know you made the first team of high school students in California this year!" Eddie smiled and said, not caring about the unhappiness in Luo Yun's words.
"Yes, you know! What's wrong? Luo Yun was a little puzzled, Leonard on the side was snickering, but he noticed that Luo Yun was looking like this, and quickly lowered his head to cover it, but at that moment, he suddenly saw the small red rope on Luo Yun's left wrist, and a mysterious smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said in his heart: Stinky boy, I don't know if something good is coming.
Eddie on the other end of the phone coughed, and said in an extremely solemn tone: "You know this year's Beijing Olympics, right?" ”
"Yes! August 8th! My parents also said that they would go back to China to see it! Luo Yun didn't think too much about it, and replied directly, in his opinion, Eddie definitely didn't say this!
"That's right, California was invited, saying that for the sake of international youth sports exchanges, it will have an exchange game with California high school students, and the basketball part is led by me, and the players from the first and second teams of high school students selected this year will participate!" Add's words were filled with pride, as if the matter was important to him.
In fact, Eddie has already been happy in his heart, this is a famous thing! I heard that there is also a live TV, this is a good opportunity, he has always wanted to enter the NCAA to coach, and now this game is just an opportunity, and Luo Yun, as his trump card, should also contribute to his coach at a critical time!
"Basketball Friendship Exchange Game?" Luo Yun was a little surprised, but then asked Eddie, "What does this have to do with the Beijing Olympics?" ”
Leonard is now lying on Luo Yun's bed with a smile, it seems that the little guy is being kept in the dark now, as a player in the second team of high school students, he received the news yesterday, he thought that Luo Yun also received an invitation, but looking at the current situation, it doesn't seem to be the case!
"Don't know? Coming under the banner of the Olympics! Eddie didn't care much about this, and then explained to Luo Yun: "If you win, it seems that there is a bonus!" ”
"Bonus?" Luo Yun suddenly cried and laughed when he heard Eddie's words, did this guy regard himself as a money fan?
"Which state to fight with! If it's Indiana, we're done! "Luo Yun is not hitting his self-confidence, but the guys in Indiana are crazy, when he played the invitational tournament this year, Stevenson made a big mistake and was won by others by more than 20 points, and Luo Yun sulked for a while!
"Which state?"
"Little one, can you let your eyes go!" Eddie was a little depressed, his players actually asked which state to play with, this is an international youth exchange tournament, although the name sounds awkward, but this is a fact!
"Ahh Open your eyes? ”
"Yes, our California High School Basketball League has received an invitation from abroad, let's go to the game!" Eddie seemed very happy in his words, and said directly on the phone, in his eyes, the group of people abroad are really stupid, looking for American basketball to play a friendly game, isn't it a joke? Although it is a competition between high school students, the difference in strength is there, and it is such a big place, what is there to communicate!
But fortunately, the other party invited a team of California high school students, not the United States, otherwise it is estimated that it can be beaten into a sieve!
"Playing abroad?" Luo Yun's tone was a little excited, go abroad! I haven't been to other countries since I returned to the arms of Mother China! And if you play a friendly match, it must be quite easy!
This is not conceit, but self-confidence, the competitive level of American basketball is recognized by all shijie, if it can be threatened, it is estimated that only the Spanish guys!
"To Beijing?" At this time, the sullenness in Luo Yun's heart had already disappeared, and he had never been to Beijing yet! He heard that the bird's nest was built very beautifully, and he especially wanted to see it, as well as the Peking duck mentioned by his father!
"It's not!" Eddie's words are very affirmative, in fact, he doesn't quite understand that Beijing has opened the Olympic Games, what is the matter with that country, and besides, the invitation to the friendly match should also be Beijing's appearance!
"Not Beijing?" Luo Yun's head is a little dizzy now, where will he go if he doesn't go to Beijing for this friendly match? According to his idea, this friendly match is probably also to cooperate with the Olympic propaganda there, but Eddie said that it is not Beijing, so where is it!
"Yes, not Beijing!" Eddie said on the other end of the phone, listening to the voice on the phone as if he was eating.
"Where is that?" Luo Yun was a little anxious, this person was halfway through his speech, it was really not interesting! ”
"Hey, hey! The little one wants to know? Add quipped with a smile on the other end.
"Yes!"
"Alright! Then I'll tell you in advance! Depart for South Korea next Monday! I've already arranged for school leave! Eddie stopped teasing Luo Yun and told him his destination this time!
"South Korea?"
、、、、、、
And Leonard was already smiling from ear to ear, and the little guy also had a day to be played, which was really happy!
Luo Yun hung up the phone, looked at Leonard who was lying on the bed with a smile, kicked it directly, and scolded: "Stinky boy, you already knew, didn't you?" ”
Note: There are only 2 more today, because the next plot has to be outlined! Let's look forward to it! Smash the ticket! Little Lolo sees Sika!
