Chapter Forty-Six: Wang Lizhong's Past
Looking at the players running with Zhang Daqing's whistle on the court, Duan Cheng was very relieved to be polite with Wang Lizhong.
"Senior brother, do you remember me?" Duan Cheng said.
"Hello Mr. Duan, if I'm not mistaken, you're from the Shengcai University basketball team, right?" Wang Lizhong said politely.
"Don't, don't be so polite, just call me a small paragraph!" Duan Cheng said with a dog's leg.
"Okay, then let's not be polite, Xiao Duan! Ha ha! ”
After Wang Lizhong finished speaking, the two laughed together. Duan Cheng cocked Erlang's legs even more comfortably, touched the stubble on his chin, and continued to chat with Wang Lizhong.
"Senior brother, I really didn't expect Ah Yu to be your son! When you retired from injury, my teammates and I felt sorry for you! Duan Cheng said, as if he had thought of something, and couldn't help but grit his back molars.
"Hey, it's all gone. Maybe this is my fate..."Wang Lizhong was always smiling, looking at Wang Yu who was training on the court, and chatting with Duan Cheng, "Fortunately, Ah Yu also likes to play basketball." ”
"Yes! Ah Yu is a rare basketball talent, there is no doubt about it! But you ...... too" Duan Cheng hesitated, still not speaking.
"But I'm also a rare basketball genius?" Wang Lizhong took Duan Cheng's words, and laughed after speaking, "Haha! Brother, you overestimate me! I'm trying hard enough at best! ”
"No, senior brother, we all know that you are a rare ball handler!" Duan Cheng excitedly grabbed the handle of Wang Lizhong's wheelchair, and his whole body turned to Wang Lizhong.
"I remember every detail of our exchange match! Your vision allocation, your ability to carry the belt, but also your organizational ability, your long-range projection! It's all top-notch! ”
Wang Lizhong glanced at Duan Cheng, who was slightly excited, and patted Duan Cheng's shoulder comfortingly, telling him to relax.
From Wang Lizhong's surroundings, Duan Cheng saw a rare sense of calm. Is he really no longer hot-blooded? If memory serves, Wang Lizhong is only 39 years old......
The more he thought about it, the more painful it became, Duan Cheng couldn't control himself a little, and the moment when his hopes were shattered when he was young still made his heart ache!
"If it hadn't been a tough game, if you hadn't been rushing to get a rebound, if you had been healed so quickly! You're sure to lead St. Dean to the playoffs! You're sure to make it to the national team! You can definitely lead your national team back to the top eight in the world! ”
Suddenly seeing Wang Lizhong evoked too many memories of Duan Cheng's youth, he was too angry for a while, and only cared about expressing his regrets back then, but forgot to care about the feelings of the parties.
Wang Lizhong also passively remembered a lot of past events that had been sealed for many years.
Back then, Tao Wenge, the coach of the Shengcai University basketball team, found several strong graduates to be sparring partners for his players, including Wang Lizhong, who had just gained a foothold in the CBA.
Duan Cheng, who had just entered his sophomore year, and his teammates did not expect to meet CBA players on the open-air basketball court of their school! When they learned Wang Lizhong's story, they became the first fans of Wang Lizhong.
It is said that Wang Lizhong, who was only a sophomore at that time, did not know what to do with it, and contacted the CBA San Dean Club, and when everyone was not optimistic, he successfully passed the trial and entered the professional league, which is the myth of their victory over the big basketball team.
For an ordinary college amateur basketball team that doesn't even have a place in CUBA, this is simply an impossible miracle!
But Wang Lizhong did it.
Not only did he do it, but he also managed to make a name for himself in the CBA through unremitting efforts in a few years, and in his short career, his personal data repeatedly reached new highs and successfully entered the public eye.
After that exchange game, Duan Cheng and his teammates watched every game of Wang Lizhong, and they were amazed by Wang Lizhong's conduction awareness and organizational art, and they all believed that Wang Lizhong would become the main point guard of the Chinese team!
But they never expected that in Wang Lizhong's best season, he was injured once, so that he could never stand up again, and they never saw Wang Lizhong on the court of any basketball game......
Injuries are fiercer than tigers! Wang Lizhong has finally become the "uneasy" in their hearts.
There are different opinions about Wang Lizhong's injury, some say that he can't endure the hardships of rehabilitation, so his career is scrapped; Some said that it was the club's mishandling that caused him to miss the best time to seek medical treatment, so he could no longer stand up; There are also rumors that he has been maintained by a rich woman, so he doesn't plan to come back to play bitterly......
There are too many rumors, but they are only a hot topic. How can a rising star who plays basketball in China and has no experience of traveling for his country attract attention?
The hot search of "newcomer Wang Wang Li retired from injury" only stayed on the popular list for a few hours before being suppressed by entertainment hotspots.
No one knows what they really want, and no one follows up on the cause and effect.
Even Duan Cheng and his teammates paid special attention to him because of the "alumni friendship" and "honor".
Outside this small circle, even the "senior fans" just regard the "Wang Lizhong incident" as a momentary conversation.
Eleven years have passed, and how many "Duan Cheng" can remember that there was a "Wang Lizhong" at the beginning?
After a quick speech, Duan Cheng, who realized that he had said the wrong thing, was extremely embarrassed and even more sorry! He looked at Wang Lizhong apologetically, and opened his mouth to apologize: "I'm sorry, senior brother......"
Wang Lizhong, who was panicked for a moment, heard Duan Cheng's sudden apology, and instead of being sad, he laughed: "Haha... You didn't say the wrong thing, so you don't have to apologize. I can understand your feelings. ”
Saying that, Wang Lizhong sighed faintly and imperceptibly: "I also regret the past." But it's all gone. ”
Wang Lizhong's eyes flashed with a moment of enthusiasm, and finally calmed down: "It's cool to fight against fate, but accepting the arrangement of fate may also be something we have to learn." ”
Looking at Wang Lizhong's calm face and listening to him say the words of relief, Duan Cheng suddenly understood why Wang Yu was so resilient on and off the court.
"Haha! Right! There are always newcomers who continue to fight against fate! ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and at the same time looked at Wang Yu and the others who were seriously doing sliding training on the court.
"Senior brother, I didn't understand that Ah Yu's talent was so good, why he was always absent from training because of his mother's opposition." Duan Cheng said, turned his head to look at Wang Lizhong and smiled, "After seeing you, I understand everything!" Ha ha! It's hard to hurt this kid! ”
"Well, this is the first hurdle for Ah Yu to fight against fate!" After Wang Lizhong finished speaking, he shook his head and smiled bitterly.
He didn't say a word - it seems that it was because I had affected Ah Yu......
