Basketball Myth: Super Guard

"Huh? Jiang Feng and Wang Lei actually updated their Weibo." Guo Ailun picked up his phone to check Weibo as soon as he got up early in the morning. He is an Internet expert. Unlike Jiang Feng and Wang Lei, they would not update their Weibo for a year and a half. .

If not for the official request of Weibo, they might not have opened a Weibo account.

When he clicked in and took a look, Guo Ailun's eyes widened. He was canvassing votes for Yao Ming. This was not the point. The point was that Brother Ming was actually retiring.

Yao Ming didn't want many people to know about this, so except for his family, he only told Qin Hao. He wanted to keep a low profile, finish the season calmly, and then announce his retirement.

This is also the choice of many NBA players.

First, like Yao Ming, they don't want more people to know and avoid trouble; second, some people haven't made up their minds yet and plan to wait until the season is over before making a decision.

So Guo Ailun naturally wouldn't know.

Qin Hao didn't call Guo Ailun either.

Not only Guo Ailun, but also Qin Hao, a member of the national men's basketball team, didn't call. It would be too much if all the friends he knew called. It’s too troublesome and not necessary. Anyway, as long as you update social media, the news will spread and everyone will know.

What's more, Jiang Feng and Wang Lei are in the CBA. The two of them came out to canvass Yao Ming and revealed the news, which means the entire CBA knows about it.

"Damn it, you didn't call me for such a big deal." Guo Ailun jumped up and immediately called Jiang Feng, but he only said "Hello" and hung up. He was so angry that he called Wang Lei again. , and then asked things clearly.

After hanging up the phone, Guo Ailun logged into his social media and also sent a message. The content was basically the same as that sent by Jiang Feng, Wang Lei and others.

It’s not just Guo Ailun.

After learning the news, all the players of the men's national basketball team called Jiang Feng and Wang Lei. After confirming the authenticity of the news, they updated social media to canvass Yao Ming and called on fans to vote for Yao Ming for the All-Stars.

In fact, there was no need for CBA players to canvass votes. When the news came out and was confirmed, it immediately aroused heated discussion.

"Why is Yao Ming retiring?"

"Hey, I didn't expect it to come so soon. I thought I could see him leading the national team in the next Olympics."

"After working hard for so many years, it's time for Dayao to take a break. Now that the national team includes Qin Hao, Yi Jianlian, Jiang Feng, and Wang Lei, it's time to retire."

People talked a lot and all expressed emotion.

Before the rise of Qin Hao, Yao Ming was the label of Chinese basketball, the "Great Wall of China" and the pride of Chinese basketball.

Although he did not achieve particularly brilliant results in the NBA, everyone can remember the efforts and sweat he put in for the national team and the Chinese Men's Basketball Team in those years.

Now, he is retiring and will never see Yao Ming play again!

"What I didn't say, I must vote for Yao Ming."

"Nonsense, as long as you are Chinese, you must vote for Yao Ming. This is his last season and he must be an All-Star."

"Brothers, take action and let people see what the power of China is. No more talking, I'm going to canvass for votes..."

For a time, the fans took action.

On forums, Tieba forums, and various social media, people are actively canvassing votes for Yao Ming.

In the end, not only players, but also fans and various entertainment stars also joined in. After all, the words "Yao Ming retires" were on the hot search.

In just a day or two, the whole of China knew that "Yao Ming was retiring."

Countless people are taking action to vote for Yao Ming, canvass votes for Yao Ming, and help Yao Ming enter the Western Conference All-Star starting lineup.

When the Chinese fans took action, the power was terrifying. In just a short period of time, Yao Ming's votes increased rapidly. The speed was astonishing, almost rising in a straight line. Many people who watched it were shocked.

...

Houston, USA.

Rockets training facility.

Today's training has come to an end, and everyone is sitting on the sidelines to rest.

Suddenly, Beverly screamed, attracting everyone's attention. He was holding his mobile phone, his eyes widened, with a look of horror on his face.

"What's wrong?"

Everyone asked strangely.

Beverly swallowed, turned to look at Yao Ming, and said, "Yao, your votes are rising so fast, so fast."

"Ballot, what ballot?" Yao Ming was confused.

"All-Star votes." Beverley jumped up, rushed to Yao Ming, threw his phone over, and exclaimed exaggeratedly: "Look, you are now ranked tenth in the Western Conference."

For a moment, his teammates came over one after another. Yao Ming took the phone and took a look. He was a little confused, but then he understood something.

He immediately opened the search page and searched for news. He couldn't laugh or cry. It turned out to be Qin Hao's fault.

This guy......

Later, the teammates also figured out the matter one after another and were a little dazed. Even they didn't know that Yao Ming was going to retire. Many people looked at Yao Ming with resentful eyes and thought to themselves, aren't we teammates? Why didn't you tell Qin Hao but not us? ?

Yao Ming explained awkwardly, then picked up his cell phone and called Qin Hao, scolding Qin Hao with a straight face.

When he was about to hang up the phone, he still said "thank you".

Although Qin Hao did not ask for his consent, he knew Qin Hao's intentions.

...

"The past two days have been crazy. Yao's votes have increased so fast."

"Hey, there are countless Chinese people behind him. How did he become an All-Star in his rookie season? It was because of the huge Chinese fans."

"I don't think so. Do you think it really all depends on the Chinese fans? As far as I know, many American fans voted for Yao Ming, and many of them are fans of Qin, Rose, Curry, George and others. These It’s not fake.”

"Tsk tsk, look at how fast the votes are rising. It's crazy."

In just one day, Yao Ming's vote count entered the top ten in the Western Conference, ranking tenth.

Of course, although Yao Ming previously showed no interest in the All-Stars, after all, he has a large fan base and is still ranked within the top 20 in the Western Conference.

However, people were still shocked that they advanced several times in one day, and this progress continues.

Two days later, Yao Ming was already ranked eighth in the Western Conference All-Star voting and fifth among Western frontcourt players.

Although this is because many fans voted enthusiastically in the two days before the news broke, and his vote increase will slow down later, it is still scary.

Fans of some Western Conference players were also frightened and expressed dissatisfaction, accusing Yao Ming of cheating. Why should a player who averaged 12.8 points per game make the All-Star Game?

Don't blame them for being annoyed. After all, Yao Ming's inclusion in the All-Stars means that there will inevitably be another player who cannot make the All-Stars, at least not in the starting lineup.

What makes people speechless is that Eagles fans actually stood up and rebuked, cursing that the All-Star voting was unfair.

The Hawks are a team in the Eastern Conference. Does the Western Conference have anything to do with you?
