The Way of the Center

The photo of An Jie holding up the regular season mvp trophy and standing with Adam Silver became the headlines on the front pages of major news websites the next day.

Even in the news broadcast that night, the news that An Jie won the nba regular season mvp trophy for the fourth time after two years was broadcast. An Jie is only one short of the legendary Jordan's record of winning five mvp.

An Jie has become the pride of all Chinese people. He proved that the sport of basketball is not exclusive to Americans.

An Jie's achievements in the NBA have already surpassed Yao Ming's too much. During the interviews, Yao Ming joked with the reporters. "Don't compare me with Anjie again, I'm sorry."

After winning another mvp trophy in the middle of the holiday, An Jie became the target that the reporters were actively pursuing again. This year, as long as it is news related to An Jie, no matter how big or small, it will definitely bring huge traffic.

No, some time ago, Vin Diesel posted a photo of himself with the Angie family on Twitter, and said that there would be a big character in the movie. Movie fans and basketball fans all over the world are completely excited. I believe that after the release of his new movie, many people who were not interested in movies will obediently buy tickets for An Jie's tens of seconds of footage.

I have to admit that Vin Diesel is very good at making use of Anjie's commercial value, but it is precisely because of Anjie's immeasurable commercial value that Vin Diesel can receive such great results.

In addition to Vin Diesel, Nike is naturally the happiest company counting money this summer. They specially built an office building in Guangzhou, China, and directly named it Anjie Building.

Nike will always build buildings named after their star spokespersons, which is one of the company's long-standing traditions. And An Jie is the first Asian to enjoy this honor.

Although a new building in Guangzhou will cost Nike a lot of money, what is this investment compared to the benefits Anjie brings to the company?

Adidas must regret it very much now. If they had quoted one or two million more to Anjie than Nike back then, it is very likely that they will be rewarded with double their income now.

Except for Vin Diesel's tweets and news about Nike's new building, reporters couldn't find Anjie throughout the summer.

Moslav's phone rings off the hook every day, and countless people ask him about Anjie's location. But the only answer Moslav could give was: "I don't know where he is, maybe, you can ask the FBI to help search."

Because of An Jie's relationship,

Meslav is now a super well-known agent too. At this time, he has five potential rookies waiting for him to arrange trial training. Moslav didn't have time to stare at An Jie, besides, An Jie wasn't the kid who needed to keep an eye on him all the time.

Now that he is a father, Moslav can control where An Jie goes. This guy, maybe he took his family to some deep mountain and old forest to hide again.

This summer's most popular and hottest character has not disappeared out of thin air. The reporters are now only looking forward to the early arrival of the new season, maybe only when the new season starts, Anjie will reappear in people's field of vision.

"Running a school is easy to blow one's own name. Even Olajuwon's training camp reputation is getting worse every year. And to be honest, running a school doesn't make much money. Are you sure you want to do this?" An Jie In front of him was Yao Ming, the current chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association and An Jie's opponent on the basketball court!

When the reporters were looking for An Jie's trace, they might not have imagined that An Jie's family is actually in China at this moment.

In Yao Ming's office, the two greatest giants in the history of Chinese basketball were talking about something.

"I don't run training camps to make money, but I hope to provide a formal training environment for domestic children. What people receive here is definitely professional-level training. For example, Nike training camps. This kind of thing, I hope we can have it in our country. And the goal of the training camp is not only for talented children, every offseason, domestic professional players can also come to my training camp to improve themselves.” An Jie’s answer is very Firm, like Yao Ming, there will always be a day when he will retire. An Jie really couldn't bear to watch Chinese basketball collapse like this after he retired.

Although Zhou Qi played well, he also gained a certain tactical status in the Rockets. But the fact is that Zhou Qi is still far from reaching the height of Yao Ming, An Jie, or even Yi Jianlian. What China needs is not a Zhou Qi or An Jie, but a generation of promising basketball players.

Domestic professional players lack high-level training during the offseason, let alone those youth players in teams from various provinces and cities. cuba? The level of cuba is even more unable to meet the professional standards.

"I will use my personal relationship to hire a lot of excellent coaches to guide players in the training camp. The training that American children can get, our Chinese children can also get in touch with in my training camp. Brother Yao, you always say Chinese Basketball must be more professional. But professionalization cannot only be reflected in the CBA league. Domestic training camps must also be professionalized together."

"I will use all my strength to help you promote, and I am very much in favor of this plan. Well, come to my house for dinner tonight, it is the offseason, you can't keep thinking about work." Yao Ming accepted An Jie's gift The file came and smiled.

"It's not like working all the time. I just came back from Las Vegas."

"You boy, you have almost wiped out the earth all these years."

"Where you go is not important, the main thing is to be able to be with your family, hehe. This is the first time I celebrate my son's birthday together this year. I am ashamed to say that my son is so old. As a father, it is actually the first time to celebrate his birthday." Ann Jie looked at the door of Yao Ming's office. Catherine and An Xiang were waiting outside.

"Professional players are like this. But you still have to cherish it. When you reach my age, you won't be able to play even if you want to." Yao Ming looks obviously older than before. It seems that the chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association, Not so easy to be.

For the rest of the summer, Anjie, in addition to continuing to travel with his family, also frequented China. Because under Yao Ming's influence, Anjie's training camp in China was given the green light all the way, and it was soon put on the agenda.

During that time, apart from the wonderful transfer news from the NBA, Anjie's training camp was the busiest in the basketball world.

Every now and then, there will always be a few well-known trainers who announce that they have officially joined the Anjie training camp. And this kind of guy usually doesn't do it alone. When they announce their joining, it actually means that their entire training team has joined.

The gorgeous lineup of trainers left the domestic reporters stunned. They are even worried about whether the domestic professional players who are accustomed to laziness can meet the training requirements.

In addition to the gorgeous lineup of trainers, some reporters who were lucky enough to enter the training camp under construction also released many photos, saying that the facilities in Anjie's training camp are absolutely world-class. The conditions of any basketball training camp in China today are unmatched. Even professional provincial and municipal teams can't compare.

Under the gorgeous shells, people are also discussing how much money An Jie invested in it. Those internationally renowned trainers alone are probably enough for An Jie to drink a pot.

However, Anjie's annual income has actually exceeded people's imagination. The salary of the Trail Blazers can only account for about 30% of his annual income. Build training camps and hire trainers. These will not bring any financial pressure to An Jie at all.

Just as the reporters thought, throughout the summer, although An Jie was a frequent visitor to the news headlines. And he finally joined the team after the start of the training camp for the new season, and finally appeared in front of the public. This guy who often hears about him but seems to have evaporated from the world suddenly appeared.

When Wu Hua took pictures of An Jie's training in the Trail Blazers' pre-season training camp, he could clearly feel that An Jie, who had been with his family for a summer, was obviously much more energetic than he was in the finals of last season.

On the training ground, Anjie mobilized his teammates as always, and guided patiently as always. Under his influence, the Trail Blazers will only get better and better.

After a summer of rest, coupled with the comeback of Lillard and George and others. The energetic Anjie and the Trail Blazers will definitely reach new heights in the new season.

Wu Hua could see An Jie's twinkling eyes. Even though he had already carried countless honors, An Jie's eyes were still full of desire for victory.

After this season's finals, An Jie will be 30 years old. From a college boy to a man in his thirties. Wu Hua couldn't help feeling that time really flies.

At the age of 30, what kind of stories can be written about Anjie's career after that? Wu Hua is looking forward to it. He believes that An Jie's legend will continue.
