Superstar Athletes’ Black Tech Systems
Chapter 35 Conditions that cannot be refused
The free confrontation lasted for an hour, and the atmosphere in the stadium was always very active.
Some well-known players like O'Quinn and Crowder were interviewed by reporters on the sidelines.
This is all arranged by their agents. Proper exposure can increase the rookie's reputation and make the team pay more attention to them.
For a little transparency like Li Liang who doesn't even have an agent, no reporter will interview him.
As soon as the free-for-all competition ended, Li Liang, Fournier and Odom, the temporary partners, shook hands and hugged, exchanged a few pleasantries, and then returned to the locker room.
Wei Dazhi left the audience, ran to Li Liang, held up the recording pen and said, "Hey, hey, Mr. Gan Liliang, how do you feel about the half-day training camp experience?"
Li Liang glanced at Wei Dazhi, and said, "Why, are you interviewing me again? You are interviewing without a license. I'll ask the staff to invite you out of Ke."
Wei Dazhi said: "Just say a few words! I will post the content of the interview with you on my homepage. Now I have quite a few fans, and they are all real fans."
Li Liang had no choice but to say: "I've convinced you, so let me say a few words. I feel pretty good, the physical test is pretty good, and I played at a normal level. Free confrontation is also okay. Generally speaking, I think I have the strength to enter the NBA."
Wei Dazhi nodded in satisfaction and said, "I agree with your opinion. Although you haven't scored a few goals, your defense is really good. Great, great."
As a senior ball blind, Wei Dazhi can still see Li Liang's excellent defense.
He immediately edited the relevant content, posted it on the homepages of his various social networking sites, and posted a post on domestic forums.
Li Liang's remarks were quickly ridiculed by some netizens, thinking that Li Liang was bragging.
This is quite normal, no one would think that Li Liang has the level to enter the NBA.
After the last NCAA finals, Li Liang's remarks caused a little controversy.
But this time, there are obviously more people who support Li Liang, and they think Li Liang's attempt is worthy of encouragement.
Even if it is not successful, it is another effort by Chinese players.
There were a lot of comments, and after arguing for a while, it quickly sank.
Li Liang went back to the locker room, took a shower and changed, and was about to go out for lunch.
"What kind of broken training camp, don't even care about a meal."
Li Liang complained in his heart, thinking that if he is unfamiliar with the place, where should he go to eat?
The key is that without a car, it is inconvenient to go anywhere.
Just as he was thinking, someone patted him behind him. Li Liang thought it was Wei Dazhi, and said, "What's for lunch? Are you treating me?"
Looking back, it wasn't Wei Dazhi, but a middle-aged white man in his 40s wearing a white shirt.
Li Liang sized him up and asked, "Who are you?"
The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and said, "Hi, I'm a scout for the Los Angeles Lakers, Ryan West."
After watching Li Liang's free confrontation training, Ryan West decided to strike first.
He wanted to establish a relationship with Li Liang before other scouts contacted Li Liang.
If even Wei Dazhi, who is hemispherically blind, can see that Li Liang's defense is excellent, other scouts will be able to see it clearly. .
West must first let Li Liang know himself, and find a way to prevent other scouts from reaching him.
West thought that Li Liang would be pleasantly surprised when he heard his name, but he didn't expect Li Liang to say nothing after hearing the words "Lakers, scouts".
He just gently shook West's hand and said, "Hi, I'm Bruce Lee, what's the matter?"
What's the point of a scout coming to find a rookie?
Isn't this kid in a bad mood?
In fact, Li Liang was not ignorant. He knew that his performance would impress some scouts, but he didn't expect it so soon.
At the same time, this kid is mobilizing the [Ball Blindness Detector] in the system to detect this Ryan West's ball blindness index.
"The ball blind index is 33%. I have a relatively deep understanding of player discovery and development, as well as basketball, but theory is better than practice... It turns out that I am an advanced ball blind, and I am indeed a scout."
Ryan West needs to know that the evaluation he received from Li Liang is advanced ball blindness, and he may be speechless.
Seeing that Li Liang didn't respond, he said, "I'm very impressed by your performance today, maybe we can talk about it."
Li Liang nodded and said, "Of course, but... But I'm a little hungry now, and I want to eat."
Have a meal? West saw it, this kid wanted to take the opportunity to make money.
But there is no way, if you want to recruit players, you have to pay a price.
West said generously: "No problem, I know a good restaurant, I treat you."
Li Liangdao: "Hey wait a minute, and my friend, together."
Wei Dazhi just came out after taking the photos, and found that Li Liang had already found the meal ticket. When he asked, he turned out to be a Lakers scout!
Wei Dazhi was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
Let's talk again, he is still the son of the famous legendary star, Jerry West!
Wei Dazhi almost hugged Ryan West's thigh and called him Dad, so that he could recognize Jerry West as his grandfather.
Jerry West is the league management he admires the most, and the old-school player that "old" fans like him admire most.
From Wei Dazhi, Ryan West regained a bit of celebrity confidence. It seems that there are still more normal people in this world.
When he arrived at the restaurant, Li Liang didn't eat or drink too much. He ordered fish, chicken, some vegetables, and fruit juice, and asked to put less oil, salt, and seasonings.
At the dinner table, Ryan West got straight to the point, saying that he was optimistic about Li Liang's performance, and the Lakers could give him a trial training opportunity.
The team's trial opportunity is a pie from the sky for any ordinary rookie.
How many capable rookies don't even have the chance to go to a professional team for a trial training all morning.
Li Liang was not in a hurry, he carefully ate the fish in front of him expressionlessly, and said, "Tell me your conditions."
"Conditions? What conditions? This is an opportunity for you, it's your opportunity, how can I give you conditions."
Ryan West found that this kid was not like a normal kid.
When they heard that the Lakers gave him a trial opportunity, they would probably go crazy with joy, but he was as immobile as a mountain.
This reminded West of Yao Ming, who just smiled slightly after being selected in the draft.
Perhaps, Chinese people are so reserved and good at restraining their emotions.
But Ryan West also remembered another person, that is his father Jerry West.
He is always moody.
"Why don't you consider inviting Anthony Davis to try out with you?" Li Liang asked jokingly.
"Davis? Oh, no kidding, he's the No. 1 pick this year. We don't have a chance. We only have..."
Speaking of this, Ryan West suddenly got stuck.
He wanted to say, "We only have the 60th pick."
Li Liangdao: "That's right, you only have the No. 60 pick, which is almost the last position. You can hardly pick any rookies you particularly like. And I don't think my pick will fall to that position." .”
Wei Dazhi, who was sitting by the side, heard what Li Liang said, and his heart almost jumped out.
what does he mean? Does that mean the Lakers are not eligible to try him out?
You are alone with the NCAA water dispenser. It is a blessing to be able to participate in the training camp. Having a team trial training is like a pie in the sky.
Are you still picking and choosing? Where does the confidence come from?
Wei Dazhi really wanted to remind Li Liang: Eldest brother, you just follow suit! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity!
But the second senior brother still held back, he shut up and listened, because he believed in Li Liang.
Sure enough, after staring at Li Liang for ten seconds, Ryan West shrugged, sighed, and said, "Okay, I do have the conditions. Our draft is indeed too low, if We have no chance of winning if someone competes. But to be honest, it may sound ugly. You are really unknown, and I have taken a lot of risks to let you try out. Therefore, my condition is that you withdraw from this rookie training camp. Go directly to our trial training. If the trial training is satisfactory, we can take you in the 60th place with a high probability. If you are not satisfied, you can continue to participate in other training camps."
This condition is undoubtedly a bit harsh.
If Li Liang is not allowed to continue to participate in the training camp, he will have no chance to show himself to other teams.
At the same time, the Lakers can't guarantee that he will be selected for the trial training. West used a "big probability".
If he is not satisfied, Li Liang will continue to participate in the training camp.
The following training camp may not have such a good environment.
Because of this, West did not mention this condition at first.
He wanted to wait for Li Liang to agree, and then make up a reason, telling him to go to the trial training immediately in the afternoon, otherwise it would be too late to arrange the time.
Many young people can't resist the temptation to try out alone, and give up the training camp without even thinking about it.
Especially since this is still a trial for the Lakers, how many basketball teenagers dream of this?
Unexpectedly, Li Liang saw through Ryan's tricks, because Li Liang could accurately recognize his own value.
Now that he knows his own value, it is impossible for Li Liang to let the Lakers tie him up with a single trial and the 60th pick.
Li Liang finished eating the fish on the dinner plate, wiped his mouth, and said, "Mr. West, I can agree to your conditions, quit the training camp in the afternoon, and then only participate in the Lakers' trial training."
Hearing what Li Liang said, Ryan felt relieved, but he thought that Li Liang must have something else to say.
Li Liang continued: "I also have a few conditions, I hope you can agree, and you will not break your promise."
"Okay, let's talk about it."
"First, my trial training will be held in Los Angeles, not just randomly find two people in a venue in New York."
West really thought so at the beginning, he had to do his own research first, but if Li Liang saw through it, he had to agree.
"Okay, no problem." West nodded. Anyway, the trial team didn't have a lot of work this summer, so they just happened to be looking for something.
"Second, if you are not satisfied with the results of my trial training, please send me a recommendation letter and let me participate in other training camps, or try out opportunities with other teams."
Li Liang has confidence in himself, but he has to be prepared for everything. Besides, the Lakers like him, but he may not like the Lakers.
"OK, no problem." For a wealthy family like the Lakers, a recommendation letter is a piece of cake.
"Third, my friend, Chris Wei, I will take him to the trial training. I hope to arrange a reporter seat for him."
Li Liang did not forget Wei Dazhi.
At this time, Wei Dazhi looked at Li Liang with eyes full of admiration and affection, and he was almost about to agree with him.
West still nodded, this is still not difficult to achieve.
After the three conditions were finished, West was a little surprised.
He originally thought that Li Liang would make some financial demands, such as living expenses, travel expenses, nutrition subsidies and so on.
Unexpectedly, there are two conditions to ensure the smooth draft, and one condition is for my friends.
He is a penniless water dispenser and has no agent, but he is very able to use his own value to negotiate terms.
This kid is really not simple.
If it were another scout, an unknown person who had tried out for a whole morning dared to negotiate conditions like this, and probably left without looking back.
But Ryan West is different. There is a blood of taking risks and acting decisively in his body.
After eating, West was about to pay the bill, but Li Liang insisted on AA.
He said that he just wanted West to take him to find a place to eat, not to treat him.
West had no choice but to agree, and Li Liang added another point in his heart.
He felt more and more that his adventure might be right.
Finally, West asked Li Liang how to notify and contact him for trial training.
Li Liang took a post-it note from the front desk, wrote a phone number to West, and said, "Call this, this is my manager's phone number."
West put away the post-it notes and left first. He wanted to go back and report the matter to Bass.
Wei Dazhi wondered, "Manager, since when did you have a manager?"
"Just now, I got an agent and a reporter friend."
"Then... Damn, that wouldn't be Zhu Shu's phone number, would it?"
"you guessed right."
"She... She's a girl, working as a manager... Also, she hasn't promised you yet, right?"
"Don't worry, I'll give her an offer she can't refuse."
