179 We are the champions

The champion Xiangyang, the runner-up Xiangbei, the third place Hakata Business University is affiliated with, and the fourth place is Kyoto Luo'an.

The best team selected in winter: point guard Fujima, point guard Kaede Rukawa, small forward Lin Dong, power forward Hanamichi Sakuragi, and center Mori Shigekuan.

The best second team selected in the winter: point guard Kazunari Fukatsu, split guard Mitsui Shou, small forward Jun Tsuchiya, power forward Toru Hanagata, and center Akagi Goken.

The ranking is a bit regrettable for most fans, after all, more Japanese fans still want to see Xiangbei, which is fighting on behalf of their homeland, win, but now that the victory and defeat have been divided, they can only give Xiangyang a round of applause.

And the first and second formations are basically not unexpected, what really makes fans look forward to and be curious is actually the list of Nike Basketball Summit announced by the organizing committee next.

NHK has spared no effort to promote basketball in Japan over the past year, and based on youth training and compared with NBA games, which has made most Japanese fans have a certain understanding of the current level and status of Japanese basketball in the world.

Of course, there are some 'wrong' and 'leading' cognitions.

Today's world basketball can only be regarded as second-rate if it is at a level like the Dragon Kingdom, of course, it belongs to a second-rate strong team, and it is only a kick in the door from the first-class.

But Japan? It's not even second-rate, which is the main reason why NHK wasn't keen on basketball before.

However, in the past year, the summer league and winter trials of high school basketball have successively played at an unimaginable level, and many talented players in the Japanese basketball world have emerged that they could not have imagined before.

In the words of some Japanese industry professionals, these high school students, especially in the winter selection, have far exceeded the level of the Japanese basketball national team, and it is no exaggeration to say that whether it is the king of the mountain or Xiangbei to play the current Japanese national team in the winter selection, it is conservatively estimated that they can win more than 20 points.

This group of students is like a mutant born after the Great Goshen exerts his divine power...... In terms of ball quotient, skill and physical fitness, it is far beyond the normal average level in Japan.

This is an incredible thing, this kind of talented player, in the past, one could be blown into the sky, but now there are more than a dozen of them......

Of course, these words will not be broadcast on TV, after all, their purpose is to raise the Japanese basketball world and increase the country's attention to basketball.

In light of this, the whole country is now paying close attention to the two Nike Basketball Summit spots announced during the last Summer League.

After the afternoon game, the award ceremony dragged on until about 8 p.m., mainly because the organizing committee was arguing about the places for the two basketball summits.

Since Lin Dong has made it clear that he will not represent Japan at the Nike Basketball Summit, the 2 spots are mainly discussed between 3 people.

Mori Shigekuan, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Rukawa Kaede.

The most controversial is Rukawa Kaede, although insiders can see the amazing strength of Rukawa Kaede in the last game, but the fact is that he was blocked by Lin Dong, and the score in the last game was only 9 points, and he has not yet reached a double, with his position as the ace of Xiangbei and playing the No. 3 position, such a scoring ability will obviously be criticized.

Although Coach Anzay tried his best to recommend it, in the words of some people in the organizing committee: Don't say anything about defending him is Lin Dong, then you go to the Nike Basketball Summit, and the defense of you is all American five-star high school students and even NCAA star players, you can score? This Nike Basketball Summit is an important step in the promotion of basketball after the cooperation between NHK and the Japan Basketball Association.

What's more, during the entire winter selection period in the past, Rukawa Kaede's performance was lackluster, even when he won the Mountain King, the public's attention was basically focused on Sakuragi Hanamichi, who was opposite Mori Shigekuan, and regarded Sakuragi Hanamichi as the most important factor for Xiangbei to win, so it seemed that Rukawa Kaede was not so important.

Besides, there are only two places in total, if they are all given to Xiangbei, will there be rumors about the shady scenes in Kanagawa?

Therefore, even if insiders can see the huge potential of Liuchuan Feng, they all know that he is the hero of winning the Mountain King, and they also know how difficult it is for him to get those 9 points under Lin Dong's blockade, but it is really a bit unreasonable to say that the quota is given to him.

The second most controversial issue is Mori Shigekuan.

According to the original meaning of the Japanese Basketball Association and the Organizing Committee and even NHK, Mori Shigekuan must have a place, but Sakuragi Hanamichi suppressed Mori Shigekuan from all aspects of his performance at the last moment in the game against Sanno, but people really can't find a reason to 'let Mori Shigekuan go up and brush Sakuragi Hanamichi down', so Mori Shigekan plus Sakuragi Hanamichi?

Although the positions of the two people do not completely overlap, their role positioning is actually only a line apart, and they are both big killers on the inside.

Considering that the Nike Basketball Summit brings together the best basketball players from all over the world, and there will be no shortage of excellent centers and interior lines, Japan really wants to let Mori Shigehiro and Sakuragi Hanamichi play together, which is also an inside killer, and the playing time of both will inevitably be further compressed, which is completely contrary to Japan's original intention of wanting to show its strength in the international basketball arena.

So a group of people from the organizing committee argued and argued, but there was no result, until after 6 o'clock in the afternoon, a senior official came to the sports hall and unexpectedly invited Coach Anzai to a small room for a private conversation for half an hour.

After coming out, the sports hall officials announced two news.

Mitsuyoshi Anzai will be the next president of the Japan Basketball Association and will also be the head coach of this year's U19 World Championships.

And the second news is the controversial Nike Basketball Summit quota, now there is no need to fight, the Sports Department directly decides: Sakuragi Flower Road, Rukawa Kaede.

So at around 8 o'clock in the evening, NHK broadcast the entire award ceremony live, and although the announcement of the two places made some people think that it was related to Mitsuyoshi Anzai's appointment as the president of the Japan Basketball Association, the performance of Sakuragi Hanamichi and Rukawa Kaede finally conquered most people, and the applause was always far better than the controversy.

And the whole Xiangyang team, Lin Dong, Fuji Zhen, Hanagata Toru, Ito Zhuo and others under the gaze of the whole of Japan, the picture of lifting the winter selection championship trophy has become a classic freeze-frame moment in Japanese basketball.

The invincible king of the summer league and winter selection, the undisputed strongest team - Kanagawa Shoyo team!

We are the champions!

………………

January 13, Yokohama International Airport.

Lin Dong wrapped himself tightly, put on sunglasses and a mask, and carried a large bag on his back.

followed by Lao Lin next to him, who just helped him check in those large and small bags.

This time when he returned to China, Lao Lin couldn't go.

There have been so many things going on in the Kanagawa branch lately.

From the very beginning, it was suppressed by the Hitachi Group and the Kanagawa Chamber of Commerce, and all Japanese-funded companies canceled their cooperation with the Kanagawa sub-branch.

At that time, it was barely able to withstand it, after all, the main business of the Bank of Communications' branch in Japan was to face some enterprises in Japan in the Dragon Kingdom.

But when the Chamber of Commerce later became powerful, coercing some Longguo enterprises, forcing them to boycott the Kanagawa branch one after another, and even after a certain degree of run, Lao Lin at that time was about to be forced to resign.

But suddenly, during the Lindong Winter Trials, Mitsui Group intervened, and five companies under its command in the Kanagawa area suddenly announced that they would fully cooperate with the Kanagawa branch of the Bank of Communications, and even transferred all their original accounts in their own Sakura Bank to the Kanagawa branch......

Lao Lin really felt the joy of riding a rocket.

From a day or two after the news was announced, companies from all over Kanagawa poured into his office hall, and various cooperation contracts were signed softly, and Lao Lin himself couldn't believe it, and even feared it for a while......

After all, this is the Mitsui Group, which has been in business since the Edo period in the 16th century, and in 1876, when the so-called 'Nigikai' was established, it is also one of the largest conglomerates in the world, and it is also one of the largest conglomerates in the world.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Mitsui Group stomped its feet, not to mention the whole of Japan, even if it was the Heavenly Emperor, it would tremble!

Will the help from his family be for no reason?

But it turns out that it's really for no reason, Lao Lin still remembers the cheerfulness of the woman called 'Gongzi' when she came to him to sign a contract, there are no conditions, everything is according to the normal process, as if an old friend who has been friends for many years came to help you a trivial favor, and said in advance that he would only help him for half a year, and he would withdraw after half a year...... Anyway, it's over.

In just half a month, he not only completed all the deposit targets of his branch in 2001 ahead of schedule, but also completed it with dozens of times the achievement rate that he never dreamed of.

Of course, under the huge benefits, it must be accompanied by heavy work.

During this time, Lao Lin was unable to leave Japan, so that his son could not return to China or even follow him for the Spring Festival, so he could only come to the airport to see him off.

"After going back, go to the grandparents' side first, and then find a housekeeper to clean the house in Sanlihe, when you want to live on the grandfather's side, you can go home by yourself if you want to go home, but don't run around for the two days of the New Year, and accompany the grandparents for the father......"

Lao Lin nagged and explained, took the key to Lin Dong and put it away, and said: "By the way, your mother said that she bought you a gift, and it will be placed in the security room of Sanlihe Community, you remember to get it when the time comes." ”

That mom in America?

Lin Dong was a little surprised.

Lin Dong is really a little unfamiliar with this mother.

It's been almost a year since he crossed over, but his mother, who is far away in the United States, has never called him once.

There is no memory of the host before the crossing, and the impression of this old mother is only stuck in a few videotapes, some photos, and some diaries that Lin Dong once wrote by himself.

Judging from the photo, she is a pretty woman, gentle as a flower when she laughs, a simple white shirt with jeans, but it was at least seven or eight years ago, which was quite fashionable in those days.

I can't see myself in the video, I can only hear the voice, it is the boxing video recorded by Ms. Yang Dong for Lin Dong, and the whole process is all kinds of 'Hey son, just hit him like this, yes, beat him in the face!' ’…… Anyway, Lin Dong feels that he is very high at any time, his temper is quite irritable, and he is also a very self-contained person.

As for the diary...... Lin Dong can't turn over the diaries that are too long, only some diaries from about junior high and high school, and what he wrote down is nothing more than what this American mother sent him some foreign high-end toys and quietly gave him how much pocket money, so that he didn't tell Lao Lin and the like.

And once 'Lin Dong''s attitude towards this old mother was also from the excitement and show-off of receiving toys at the beginning, to the later habitual and numbness, and even began to change the name of his mother in the diary, from mother to 'Lao Yang'.

Anyway, Lin Dong feels like the type of parent who has no other intersection with his child except for money.

And now, another gift?

To be honest, Lin Dong is quite indifferent to this, if he wants to choose, choose Lao Lin, who is now with his own heart, is obviously far better than this rich mother.

"Okay, got it." He replied nonchalantly.

As I was talking to my father, I saw five or six people looking around the airport, as if they were looking for someone.

Sakuragi Hanamichi, Fujima, Hanagata, Mitsui Kotobuki, Ito Taku?

Lin Dong waved at them with a smile, originally said on the phone yesterday that he would not let them see them off.

"Ah, Lin ......" Ito Zhuo was the first to see it, and waved at Lin Dong excitedly, but fortunately, the word 'Lin Dong' had been pressed by Fuji Zhen before he could say it.

With Lin Dong's reputation in Japan now, especially in Kanagawa, if he really wants to call out Lin Dong's name at this airport, I don't know if it will delay Lin Dong on the plane, but everyone will definitely not think about any chance to see him off.

It's a little late today, sorry everyone.

The slam dunk chapter is over, but the next plot will still not be completely separated from the slam dunk characters.

Of course, the main perspective will return to the protagonist, who will compete in the NBA, and the characters of Slam Dunk will appear in their most suitable positions in the subsequent plots, whether it is a player, a manager, a coach or even a boss...... There will be a happy ending.

The end of the slam dunk chapter means the end of youth, but it also means the continuation of youth, I hope we can continue the most reasonable and best sequel to the characters of the slam dunk, not the national competition, but a broader stage.

Today's two more,The next one will be synthesized into a big chapter.,5K.,Sent around 5 o'clock.。

(End of chapter)
