The speech is over, there will be a party later.

Chinese people socialize at the dinner table, while old men socialize at parties.

However, Happy had already arrived at school, so after his speech, Jiang Dalin went to the school tea restaurant that he had made an appointment with Happy.

The NCAA finals are over, and the NBA regular season will be over in one week. The lottery in early May, the joint workout on May 13th, and the 2001 draft on June 25th will take a total of almost 2 and a half months.

He didn't have much time, so he had to plan ahead with Happy.

When I saw Happy again, it was only two days later. This guy had not changed much. He still had a comedian-like smile, which looked very funny.

The two sat down, and Jiang Dalin went straight to the topic and asked about the next plan.

"The NBA regular season is not over yet. You can rest for a week. You have just finished playing the finals and let your body relax. Next, what we have to face will be a big battle!"

Jiang Dalin nodded.

Happy continued: "I will arrange for a trainer to improve your shortcomings in a week! Until the end of the lottery. In short, man, enjoy your week of vacation first!"

"OK!"

Happy's calm attitude allowed Jiang Dalin to rest at ease.

"By the way, Jiang, several magazines have contacted me and want to book cover shoots with us. In addition, there are several companies in Michigan that also want to cooperate with us."

The explosive performance in the finals, coupled with the amazing dunk that broke the rim, made Jiang Dalin, who was only slightly famous in the NCAA scouting circle, become popular overnight!

Especially these days, it is when he is at his hottest!

Jiang Dalin was only concerned about one question: "Will you give me money?"

"Here, it's just not much, about 8,000 to 10,000." Happy opened his notebook and took a look at the recorded price.

This is indeed a bit less.

But for Jiang Dalin, who is currently strapped for cash, it can solve an urgent need.

You can't let Happy pay for all the food, clothing, housing and transportation first, right?

Although most rookies do this.

But Happy doesn't look like a rich man.

Jiang Dalin should be self-reliant!

Besides, he was going to have a rest in the next week, so he had nothing to do, so he might as well make some extra money to put some money in his pocket.

Happy then hurriedly contacted him.

Seeing that it was still early, Jiang Dalin went back to the party. As expected, he would be leaving Michigan State University tomorrow. He didn't know when he would see these old comrades next time, so he had to say goodbye.

And when we were just chatting, Happy said that the NCAA has announced this year's major awards.

Jason Richardson, who missed the Final Four MVP, finally won the John Wooden Award.

It's just that they were giving a farewell speech just now and didn't know about it.

Jiang Dalin has to go and congratulate him.

John Wooden Award.

This is almost the highest personal honor that a college athlete can receive, equivalent to the NBA's regular season MVP.

This is also the first time Jason Williams has won this award.

Jason Williams was excited when he heard the news.

Tom Izzo on the side also smiled, and now he felt no guilt.

This result is satisfactory enough!

Jiang Dalin did not achieve nothing. He was named to the Associated Press NCAA All-Year Team and the NCAA Tournament All-Team.

mop plus the two best teams in the NCAA, as well as the two best teams in the conference that were previously won in the Big 12.

Jiang Dalin has gained a lot this year in Michigan.

It also brought many surprises to the outside world.

If there was a "ncaa dark horse award of the year", it would probably be Jiang Dalin.

After the party, Tom Izzo left Jiang Dalin behind and looked at him with emotion. Jason Williams was already famous in high school, and he also played well in his first year in college. The help he gave was not

It's not a big deal, but it's the latter's persistence that makes him the most popular head coach in the league.

Therefore he feels guilty towards Richardson.

But for Jiang Dalin, he has a different mentality. After all, when Jiang Dalin first came to the team, his basic skills were not very solid, and his ability to adapt to the rhythm of the game was also very poor. Coupled with various reasons, it can be said that it was him.

He was cultivated patiently step by step.

At this moment of separation, he felt somewhat like "a well-raised cabbage will be eaten by other wild boars".

He can't help but want to go to the NBA. He wants to continue coaching Jiang Dalin!

Of course, just thinking about it, the college head coach may not be as well-known as the NBA coach, but the workload is much smaller, and his current reputation is not bad at all, and his career is also on the rise, so naturally it is impossible to really leave.

"Man, the road to the future is to be taken step by step slowly. I look forward to your future in the NBA!"

Jiang Dalin couldn't help but hugged Tom Izzo. He has really helped him a lot in the past year!

Recalling the warm and beautiful scenes, Jiang Dalin couldn't help but hug him tighter.

As a result, Tom Izzo's hoarse voice came out: "Da, Da Lin, it's too tight, don't, don't use so much force..."

His face turned red and he couldn't bear Dalin's enthusiasm.

Jiang Dalin quickly let go and touched the back of his head with a naive smile.

Look at what happened. When I got excited, I became even more energetic!

After bidding farewell to Tom Izzo, Jiang Dalin received a call from Happy that night: "Man, tomorrow morning, the first stop is Los Angeles!"

In this way, with full harvest, Jiang Dalin followed Happy to the airport early the next morning. Before getting in the car, he looked back at the school gate of Michigan for the last time. Jiang Dalin got into the car...

In the next four or five days, Jiang Dalin made a total of four announcements.

Got 38,000 yuan.

Leave aside taxes and agent fees for Happy.

In the end, Jiang Dalin only had about 15,000 yuan left.

This tax rate made Jiang Dalin grit his teeth.

too harsh.

However, this can be regarded as the largest amount of money Jiang Dalin has received since receiving a scholarship from a Michigan school last year.

Immediately after the announcement, Jiang Dalin chose to reward himself and had a big meal.

In the remaining two days, Happy made no further announcements for him.

It's not like there are no magazines looking for him.

But Jiang Dalin had to go to his uncle's place.

Last year he was able to attend Michigan State University, thanks to his uncle's girlfriend writing him a letter of introduction!

To a certain extent, in the United States, if you want to go to college, letters of introduction are more effective than grades.

Jiang Dalin has to thank his uncle and his girlfriend.

Jiang Dalin's way of expressing his gratitude is also very simple...treat his uncle and his future aunt to have a good meal!

"As soon as I saw how big you were, I knew you could do it!" Jiang Dalin's uncle Jiang Jianguo said harshly at the dinner table.

In fact, what he said at that time was, you should come with me to join the crew. With your size, there must be many crews competing to be a special actor!

However, Jiang Dalin didn't refute, so don't worry about such trivial matters.

On the other hand, his future aunt was not in a very high mood, and was far from the lively look she had when they first met. The delicious food was placed in front of her, but she didn't even take a few bites.

Jiang Dalin asked curiously in Chinese: "Uncle, what's wrong with Lilith?"
