Legendary Basketball Tycoon
Chapter 11: People from China (seeking recommendation)
Time passed quickly, and it was May 1992 in the blink of an eye.
The "March Crazy" has long since passed. The 1992 NCAA Championship championship was won by Duke University led by Christian Lightner.
However, many superstar players emerged in this NCAA competition, at least at the NCAA level.
The first is of course the famous Shaq O'Neill.
Although Shaq O'Neal did not make the NCAA semi-finals this year, he played for Louisiana State University for three seasons, averaging 21.6 points and 13.5 rebounds per game, and was named the best player in the United States twice, absolutely. No. 1 candidate.
The second is the iron-blooded tough guy Alonzo Mourning. The NCAA game performance this season is also perfect, and he is also the most favorable contender for the No. 1 pick.
The third is Christian Lightner of Duke University. He is a player who can lead the NCAA to the top of the NCAA. He has super personal ability and leadership ability. However, in the era when there are super centers participating in the draft, he is destined to miss the No. 1 pick. Can firmly rank in the top three.
In addition to the three popular insiders mentioned above, many outstanding players also signed up for the draft in 1992.
In addition, the most striking thing is that five national team players from China can also participate in the draft, and they are all of the right age.
American media reporters are not very optimistic about these Chinese players. The main reason is that Asians and Europe and the United States are too physically different. If you are thin in the NBA, you will be destined to be eliminated. Unless you want to have a unique skill, you will not be able to mix.
There are ten Ford cars parked outside New York International Airport, which is particularly eye-catching outside the airport.
why? First of all, this pomp is definitely for the important leaders. The old Americans like to watch the excitement. No, many old Americans stopped watching to see who has such a big score.
The second thing is that our "Prince Prince" Bruce is wearing a Chinese suit, who is very sleek, and is leaning on the door of the car, watching the people coming out of the exit with his eyes! Mitch Kupchak accompanied him.
Who is such a big name? Even the small stock gods of Wall Street and the "Prince Lord" of the Tianhan Empire Consortium have come to greet them. This is quite worth seeing.
Many New York media reporters have been dispatched to obtain first-hand information.
Who else, of course, is the player from China who came to participate in the draft. Before he came to pick up the players, NBA president Stern called to care about the situation.
Bruce replied to Stern perfunctorily, thinking in his heart, what's up to you, I need you to worry about picking up people from our country.
After coming out, the crowd saw seven tall men first enter the eyeballs, followed by two middle-aged men and a young man, a total of ten people.
Why is there ten? Come, let me introduce the lineup this time.
Guan Yuka: Hu Weidong. (Introduced in the form of cards)
Nicknamed "Hua Guo Jordan", he serves as a shooting guard. He has outstanding bounce, various scoring methods, elegant style of play, and precise shots in the long range.
Zhang Feika: Shan Tao.
Serving as a center, strong body, good at making small hooks, strong in the shot, is said to be able to resist O'Neal.
Zhao Yunka: Sun Jun.
Nicknamed "Tiger King", he serves as a small forward shooting guard, with comprehensive skills, breakthroughs, dunks, assists, rebounds, steals, and also practiced three-pointers.
Ma Chaoka: Gong Xiaobin.
Nicknamed "Xiaoyao King", he serves as a power forward with good bounce, fast speed and comprehensive skills.
Huang Zhongka: Li Xiaoyong.
He is a point guard, stable and experienced, able to pass, break, and shoot.
This is the five tiger generals who participated in the NBA draft this year, the previous "golden generation" players.
This is also the reason that Brusto Relations found a friend to raise up the five people. It just so happens that each position is a person.
The other two tall men are about to talk about them. They are Wang Zhizhi and his son. Wang Zhizhi was less than 15 years old in 1992. The reason for coming to the United States is that Bruce personally invited Wang Zhizhi to the American University to participate in the NCAA league. These talents are invited to enter the United States in advance.
In general, his father Wang Weijun is also a basketball player. He can play for the country in the future for his son. He agreed without saying a word. Considering that he is still under adulthood, the school needs a guardian to sign some documents, so he also followed the big team. Up.
Wang Zhizhi is still young. Although he is already very tall, he can only go to high school first. Bruce has arranged to attend a high school in Los Angeles. During this period, his task is to learn English well before speaking.
As for the following three people, they are definitely famous people.
Xu Jicheng: In his previous life, he was a famous basketball commentator. He specializes in reporting basketball and has an indissoluble bond with the NBA. He is the author of the book "50 Years of NBA".
Zhang Weiping: In his previous life, he was a famous basketball commentator. Because of his commentary style, he was dubbed "Zhang Yangfang" by fans. Of course, some people called him "Uncle Zhang".
Su Qun: In his previous life, he was a famous basketball commentator.
Arranging these three great gods to come to the United States, Bruce also has his own purpose. Xu Jicheng and Zhang Weiping are on-site Chinese narrators for the New York Hans. After all, Su Qun is a young man, so let's be a Chinese reporter and text editor first.
The reason for this arrangement is to promote the influence of the NBA in China. After all, the New York Hans are the home team, so it must be the highest configuration.
We negotiated with CCTV long before Bruce left Beijing. Just like football, two commentators who can speak Chinese will interpret the live broadcast of the NBA. CCTV will switch to its own commentator during the break.
After the NBA president learned the news, he asked Bruce. After Bruce explained patiently, Stern agreed. However, there is one condition. The two commentators can not only explain the New York Hans game. They can only explain half of the regular season. the match of.
Stern is really confused. I only explain you New York Hans throughout the whole process. Then, you Chinese only know New York Hans, and you know other teams. It is not good for me to expand the Chinese market. Resolutely will not work. Bruce will accept it if he sees it well. agreed.
The arrival of these ten people is definitely a major earthquake.
New York Times: The arrival of the Bruce Five Tigers will definitely set off a climax in the NBA.
ESPN: Looking forward to the wonderful performance of Chinese players in the NBA.
New York media took photos and reported.
After shaking hands with ten people one by one, the team reported by CCTV and some domestic media reporters came out.
Bruce didn't care about this either. After all, he was not a triumphant. He joined ten people, plus the CCTV reporting team, and drove away in a Ford, leaving the domestic media reporters in ashes.
After returning to the hotel that Bruce had rented for them, everyone was more excited. After all, it was the first time I came to America and I was curious about everything.
But there was not much time for curiosity. After everyone put down their luggage at the hotel, Bruce took ten people to the villa on Long Island, because there was a press conference in the afternoon, and some things had to be told.
After everyone was seated, Bruce and Mitch Kupchak also returned to their seats.
"First of all you can come to the United States, I am very happy, you are the one who arranged you with all my hard work, right."
Everyone nodded. It was indeed Bruce who had worked so hard to run from place to place during his stay in China to gather them all.
"Everyone knows that I am for the country for the long-term development of basketball in the country's future. I don't care how much money you make in the NBA."
"Especially the five of you, you will participate in a joint trial in a few days. I hope you can all play out the style of our country."
"No matter which of the five of you can be selected in the end, and whoever is not selected me. I hope that the players who are not selected will not be discouraged. They will still have a good development when they return to China. The selected players should not be complacent. You may be invincible in Asia. But in front of Europe and the United States, you are really nothing. In the NBA, you will encounter many difficulties, such as language barriers, discrimination or even contempt by your teammates or opponents, etc. Then your main task is to live. Living hard in the NBA league, living is success."
"Of course, the selected players will have to work alone in this foreign country in the future. I only have one request, not to lose the face of Chinese people. The United States is a prosperous country. There will be any temptations, women, drugs, and alcohol. You can't touch these."
"Of course there will be people who will seduce you. I hope you can restrain yourself and refuse when you refuse. You are here to play, not to eat, drink and have fun. Your job is to play well and make money and then take you in the United States. The money earned from hard work gives parents a prosperous life. If anyone prevents you from reacting to the team management, you can apply to be traded. We Chinese know what the most important thing is, it’s shy, you guys. Do you want people to drive you out of the United States and return to China in disgrace? What will your parents say about you at that time, and how do your parents feel when they hear it?"
"Also, I know that many people in the United States, including opponents on the court, will racially discriminate against us Asians and even Chinese. I hereby advise everyone. After you hear it, it is best not to be impulsive and want to solve the problem through fighting. You’ll feel at ease if you are banned and fined by the league. Obviously, the gains outweigh the losses. You can call the police or ask me for help. The lawyers of our group will be responsible for racial discrimination for free."
"The NBA is the world's first basketball league. The reason why I brought you all together to participate in the draft is to use all the knowledge and skills learned in the NBA when playing for the country in the future, so that the people of the whole country can see that you are in the NBA. The progress of the team also laid a good foundation for the Chinese players who later entered the NBA."
"Finally, I can only tell you these things in private, because we are all Chinese, and I will help you if you encounter any difficulties in the United States. The premise is that you are innocent. If I know that someone becomes the above, I will not I hope that if that happens, I'm sorry, you will handle your own affairs in the future, I'm not free."
"After talking so much, I know you all listened to it. Everyone will attend the press conference in the afternoon. Don't be nervous, just say what you have."
Bruce was tired after talking so much, and motioned to Mickey Kupchak to speak, so as not to become a decoration. Bruce drank Coke by himself, comfortable, and lived a small life.
Mitch Kupchak solemnly introduced himself, and then introduced the New York Hans.
They said to Zhang Weiping: "Mr. Xu and Mr. Zhang will become the special host of the New York Hans and serve as the ambassador for the NBA China Promotion. They are mainly responsible for presiding and explaining some of the New York Hans' regular season games and some of the games released by the NBA. Regular season."
After speaking, I explained to the two in detail, NBA Commissioner Stern’s commentary request.
The two also expressed their understanding, after all, you can't just promote one team.
"Mr. Su, you will become a Chinese reporter and text editor for the New York Hans. Of course, like Mr. Zhang and Mr. Xu, you are also an NBA ambassador for China."
In fact, Su Qun does not matter. He came to the United States mainly because of curiosity. This arrangement is also very good. He can walk around and take pictures. He is a photographer himself.
After arranging everything, Bruce asked everyone to have a good rest in the hotel, and there was a press conference in the afternoon.
