Talent Matters? Or is effort important?

The discussion on this topic has been going on for a long time.

Many people think that talent is far more important than hard work, and without the blessing of talent, no matter how hard you work, it is useless.

But at the same time, they don't deny that hard work is the only way to realize their talents.

Jiang Yan is deeply aware of this.

Therefore, whether it is as an idol trainee in South Korea, I will continue to work hard in the direction of making my debut as a group.

After returning to China, he used the identity of an Internet celebrity model as a springboard, came into contact with film and television comprehensive resources to break into the entertainment industry, and continued to move towards the goal of becoming an actor.

He has always believed that hard work requires perseverance.

For the next week.

The basketball team of Tongliang Middle School has entered the final training sprint stage in Chongqing Division to prepare for the National High Grassroots Competition.

The cultural class of these dozen team members was directly stopped.

Not only will a certain amount of physical training be carried out on the school playground every morning and evening, but there will also be some ball training and light combat tactical drills alternately.

The basic skills of any sport require years of diligent practice to master, and many times what is really needed is to form the body's memory.

Although Jiang Yan has not received systematic basketball training in recent years, fortunately, he occasionally goes out to play with his friends during breaks, and he has been sculpting his body all the time.

Therefore, using this short week to regain his original muscle memory and awaken his former body instinct is not as difficult as he imagined.

on the basketball court.

"Hurry up! Run fast! ”

"Take the rebound and pass the ball immediately! Don't hesitate! ”

"Cross run! Don't run on horseback! ”

The players on the field are practicing the fast attack.

Coach Du on the sidelines kept roaring loudly.

"Pass the ball to me sharply, hard! As long as the pass is in place, if you can't catch it, that's the receiver's problem! ”

"Don't forget to look back! Watch your teammates run! I don't even know when the ball passes, and my brain is flooded again? ”

"Xiao Jiang, can you deduct it, can't you boost the morale of the team? The bounce is so good, every time you go to the basket, can you be hard and play like a man? ”

Although it seems that the coach is very dissatisfied with the training state of the players on the court, in fact, the overall technical and tactical level of the basketball team is actually visible to the naked eye.

It's just that as the head coach, Du Feng needs to make this group of children who are only seventeen or eighteen years old feel pressure all the time.

Because only a very small part of children at this age can maintain self-discipline, only by letting the outside world exert a certain intensity of pressure on their bodies can they continue to tap their potential and continue to improve.

Jiang Yan was also scolded during this time.

It's mainly a matter of style.

He played soft.

Habitually drifting near the three-point line to shoot mid-range shots.

Many people who can dunk to enhance their momentum do not dunk, but choose the most harmless civilian layup.

This is probably a bad habit formed by him playing too many health balls with friends and strange uncles on the wild court before.

Although he is eager to shine on the stage and gain the love of fans, he is low-key on the stage and does not want to be too flamboyant and cause trouble.

This may have something to do with the homeschooling he received as a child.

Ordinary people, just take care of your own business.

When you go out, you can do less, and you don't have more.

So gradually, Jiang Yan also formed this kind of "hello, hello, hello, everyone" slightly dedicated personality.

Although in this way, everyone around him will think that Jiang Yan's personality is very good and very suitable for getting along, but in order to maintain this kind of personality, sometimes he is actually quite tired.

In response to Jiang Yan's troublesome matter, his table mate gave his own understanding and suggestions on the way out of school.

"Why do you have to be considerate of other people's feelings in everything you do? You've always been so considerate of others, so who will take care of you? Be a little self-conscious. ”

Jiang Yan felt that what Tian Xiwei said was very reasonable.

A lot of troubles actually come from not being ruthless enough.

On a social level, this may not be a compliment.

But if you want to mix better in the entertainment industry where the fittest survive, you can be better than others.

He needed to get himself ruthless.

"Jiang Yan!"

Jiang Yan took Sun Fanri's long pass from the quarterback across the half court, dribbled the ball and strode to the basket in the restricted area.

The defender who was in charge of marking him quickly spread his arms and wrapped them around.

Seeing this, the other players of the defensive group were also ready to make up for the defense and waited for it.

Jiang Yan didn't change direction, purely relying on speed to eat his defender raw, and then kicked the ground with his legs hard at a step or so inside the free throw line, and rose into the air.

Pulling the ball behind him with one hand, when the height of the air reaches the highest point, the defender who jumped up in the pit under the basket can only look at Jiang Yan's chest at eye level...

"Bang!"

Jiang Yan, who is 187 tall, smashed the ball into the basket from a big center that was almost two meters apart and completed the dunk.

The players on the field were in a mess, and the players off the field were coaxing and snickering, obviously all frightened by Jiang Yan's powerful slam buckle.

"Blanch! I'm so grassy! The next time I meet you for a quick attack, I won't defend it anyway. The center who was miserably separated scolded with a smile on his face.

"Then wait to be scolded by the coach for being a soft egg." Jiang Yan smiled and patted his ass as a sign of comfort.

"Every ball has to be so hard in the future! Okay, Xiao Jiang, you come down to rest and drink saliva first, it's the next group's turn. Du Feng on the sidelines shouted with satisfaction.

"I'll try."

Jiang Yan walked to the bench on the sidelines and sat down, picked up a bottle of Cestbon from the ground, unscrewed the cap and took a sip.

Although his skills have not increased in the past three years, his physical fitness has been steadily improving.

And when his physical strength reached its peak, his confidence in the whole person also became more and more explosive.

Perhaps this is why he was often praised by his dance teacher when he was a trainee in South Korea.

His body seems to have been born very athletic.

It didn't take long for Sun Fanri, who had completed the training, to come over from the court, sit next to Jiang Yan, and asked, "It's going to be tomorrow, how is the state recovering?" ”

"Seven-seven-eight-eight." Jiang Yan replied truthfully.

"That's good, you're the core of our team, and it's up to you whether you can make it to the West Conference this year."

"I can't play five at once, and it takes everyone to work together to get results." Jiang Yan remained modest.

"You may not know that our group of people actually played a round of grassroots matches in their sophomore year of high school last year, and we know how big the gap is with those strong teams."

Sun Fanri turned his head to look at Jiang Yan and said seriously: "We win the third or fourth place every year, because we only have the level of the third or fourth place, and the reason why they win the championship and the second place is because the upper limit is only the champion and the second place, can you understand what I mean when I say this?" The gap between our three or four places and the first and second places is really big. ”

'So I wouldn't say it's your team alone, but it's true, you're clearly a cut above us and you need to take more responsibility.'

"How do you sound like you have a sense of déjà vu that the greater the power, the greater the responsibility, is this a moral kidnapping?" Jiang Yan said a cold joke, "But I'm not Spider-Man either..."

"It's definitely not a moral kidnapping!" Sun Fanri also smiled, "I just want to say that after all, we are also a team that has both prosperity and loss, and we will do our best to spell out a good result that we can brag about in front of our friends in the future, and you will too, right?" ”

Jiang Yan first thought about how hard his teammates trained during this time, and then thought that when he was in junior high school, he actually had fantasies about the road to professional basketball in the future...

He felt that this might be an opportunity to make up for his childhood regrets and put an end to his childhood dreams.

"Of course, that's what I once dreamed about."

Young people are always prone to getting hot.
