Chapter 336 Summer Camp Starts
At this time, in Sacramento, Kevin Johnson had just completed a round of training and then soaked into the medicine barrel.
Next to him, Wang Tiexiong was preparing to give him a massage with medicated oil.
Lightning averaged 15 points and 7 assists per game last season, and his state declined, far worse than in the 93/94 season. However, he is only 29 years old, and he is actually not reconciled to being ordinary. He has one hope, now he feels that his physical fitness seems to be a little stronger than before, and his old injuries are better, so this offseason, he started to practice more, wanting to maintain his state and even improve his state.
Old K has entered his peak period, and he still wants to play for a few more years. Wouldn't it be nice to have a few more championships by Old K's side?
Moreover, Dan Marley was traded, which also stimulated him to a certain extent. He also worried that once the state declined too much and the team found a new point guard, he would be traded.
Although he was a rookie in the Cavaliers, he was traded to the Suns after half a season in the Cavaliers, so he has always regarded the Suns as his home team and did not want to be traded.
"Tie Xiong, what has old K been doing lately?" He asked casually while taking a bath.
Wang Tiexiong is the second group of people to come to the United States. He is also smart, has a good memory, and is willing to speak. He has been here for a few months and now he can speak a little English. He said with a smile: "A brother contacted me. Yesterday Fengshen Street opened. It's like going back home."
He himself called home yesterday and asked his parents to go to Tie Jun's house. He can make a lot of money in the United States, so he should thank him very much.
"The opening of Fengshen Street, this kid won't die, right?" Lightning said.
"No, I heard that real estate in the capital has risen rapidly in the past two years, and Tiejun's street should be able to make a lot of money." Wang Tiexiong said.
"what?"
Kevin Johnson's eyes widened, and he yelled angrily: "That kid, Old K, lied to me. I asked him to take me to invest. He said he didn't know how to invest, and he would lose money. So he planned to make a lot of money by himself? This guy is too much, I want to find him."
Wang Tiexiong opened his mouth wide, he won't cause trouble for Tie Jun, right?
Lightning took the mobile phone and started calling old K's mobile phone in China. Old K gave him the number for easy contact.
In the middle of the night, Lao Wang was awakened by his mobile phone, and he saw that it was Lightning's number?Damn, don't you know it's night here?
"Hello, Kevin, is there anything urgent?" He answered the phone.
"Old K, has your Fengshen Street made a lot of money?" Lightning shouted.
Lao Wang was taken aback, I am making a fart, I have to continue to throw several hundred million into it, or I will be trapped in it for the rest of my life.
"No, what are you earning? I plan to build a sports center there, just like Madison Square Garden, and I need to invest about 2 million yuan. Why, are you interested? Why don't you invest 2000 million US dollars, and you can send me money now. I'm waiting for the money..." he said.
"Silk!"
Lightning gasped, [-] million dollars, he didn't have the money to accompany Old K to go crazy, so he hung up the phone directly to avoid being dragged down by that guy.
"This guy has no courage." Old Wang also hung up the phone.
The next day, early in the morning, at just over six o'clock, a relative who had made an appointment came riding a motorcycle.
This is a relative of his deceased grandma's family. According to his seniority, he is considered an old cousin. The two families still walked around when grandma was there, but they stopped after grandma passed away.
The old cousin is called Gao Feng, 40 years old, graduated from a technical secondary school, and is very capable. He is the deputy director of the county hospital of traditional Chinese medicine and is in charge of logistics.
This time, I invited him here because I wanted to have a chat with him, and I was going to ask this old cousin to be in charge of the pharmaceutical company for him. He had always planned to start a company in China, and the medicinal materials in the United States were still a bit more expensive.
This company is not only for pharmaceuticals, but also to establish some medicinal material bases, so that the quality of the medicinal materials produced by itself will be better.
Gao Feng was very polite when he came to the door. He brought two bottles of wine and some fruits, and when he entered the door, he called Uncle and Aunt to Wang Aiguo and Liu Damei.
"Gao Feng is here."
Wang Aiguo smiled enthusiastically.
This is the grandnephew of his mother's natal family. When the old mother was around, he knew him very close.
"Gao Feng is here, come and sit down. You seem to be here, why are you carrying some things? There is no shortage of these at home." Sister Liu took the things from Gao Feng's hand and said in a long-winded manner.
"Isn't this uncle likes to drink two cups?" Gao Feng laughed.
"Brother Gao Feng, sit down." Wang Tiejun got up and asked Gao Feng to sit down.
"Hey." Gao Feng nodded politely.
He didn't know what Wang Tiejun meant by asking him to come here, but as a native of Qing County, he certainly knew that a large group of local people followed Wang Tiejun to make a fortune in the United States, and he was also envious.
As a vice president, he earns tens of thousands of yuan a year, and he also wants to follow him to the United States. He is very good at massage, which is his major, and he was born in Chinese medicine.
It's just that he's getting older. Wang Tiejun only wants young people. Recently, his age has increased, and he needs to be under forty, which doesn't meet the requirements, so he never came to him.
The two then chatted, and they couldn't help being pleasantly surprised when they heard that Wang Tiejun wanted him to be in charge of the pharmaceutical company.
Of course, it is impossible to have a higher income than that of the United States in China, but it should be higher than that of his vice president, right?
"Brother Gao Feng, you come out to work with me, [-] yuan a year, what do you think? Don't worry, my business is very long-term. After you make the company well, the salary will be adjusted upwards." Wang Tiejun said.
Gao Feng gritted his teeth, nodded and said, "I didn't say anything, I did it."
Nowadays, most of the employees go to sea, and it is popular to go to sea. He has been thinking about going to sea, but he can't make up his mind. It is better to be able to hang out with Wang Tiejun now than toss around by himself, so he didn't hesitate too much. After thinking about it, he agreed.
Wang Tiejun was happy, Gao Feng was a pretty good person, and he was quite relieved to hand over the company to him.
After breakfast, he set off and rushed to the city, went to Wang Xiaoli's house to pick up Sun Le, and rushed back to Fengshen Street at noon.
When I arrived at the training hall, it was full of people and noisy.
The national team's men's and women's basketball teams are all here, and Liu Yumin's current work focus is on the national team, preparing for next year's Olympic Games, which is also here.
In addition, there are 200 teenagers selected to participate in the summer camp, and their parents, more than [-] people of all sizes.
Considering that there are all children here, the media was not invited in.
As soon as he arrived, he immediately became the center.
Summer camp starts tomorrow, and today is just registration, distribution of sneakers and other equipment, and accommodation arrangements.
A collective dormitory building next to Wang Tiejun's training hall, five floors, ten rooms on the first floor, one room for four people, can accommodate 200 people, all arranged there.
A bunch of the worst people from Nortel often live there, and several trainers from the United States also live there.
The first thing Lao Wang saw when he entered was Yao Min, a young boy who was about his height but as thin as a bamboo pole. After greeting the others, he walked towards Yao Min.
Yao Min was accompanied by his mother. His father didn't come, so he still had to go to work. Besides, the travel expenses were not cheap, and playing ball also cost money, so save as much as you can.
Liu Yumin and Zhang Lili also followed, and the latter introduced: "Tie Jun, this is an old women's basketball team from my era. Fang Fengdi, the main center of the national team."
"Hello, senior."
Pharaoh immediately stretched out his hand.
"Tie Jun, I'm going to trouble you this time." After shaking hands, Fang Fengdi smiled politely.
"No trouble, why bother, you are too polite." Old Wang smiled.
"This is her son, Yao Min. His family calls him Dayao. His father used to be the main center of the Shanghai team and also played basketball." Zhang Lili introduced Yao Min again.
Old Wang looked at the thin bamboo pole. He didn't have any muscles, and his strength must be very small. He couldn't talk about resistance. He asked casually, "How old is he?"
"It's almost 15, in September."
Fang Fengdi hurriedly introduced her, patted her son again, and said, "Dayao, call someone quickly, he can talk normally."
"Dayao, you can just call him Brother Tiejun." Zhang Lili said cheerfully.
Yao Min smiled youthfully, and said hastily, "Brother Tie Jun, hello."
Old Wang smiled, this little guy is using honorifics, he is polite enough, he nodded, looked at the sneakers under Dayao's feet, it seems to be a small brand in the United States, it doesn't cost more than fifteen dollars, the soles of the shoes are worn out badly, and there are still places to mend, he asked, "What size do you wear?"
"About size 53, some shoes are of different sizes." Dayao said.
"Aren't those shoes so big?" Lao Wang asked Zhang Lili.
"There is no one over size 50. If you want to wear your shoes, they should be the same size as you." Zhang Lili said.
"Then take mine." Old Wang nodded.
He looked at Dayao again, and said, "You've reached your age, you've reached your height, now you're going to start building muscle and strength?"
"It's 217 centimeters now, which is one centimeter taller than you. I think he still has room for improvement. He hasn't reached the age of 15. But now he can really practice strength. He's too thin. In the future, he should increase his nutrition and eat more beef and chicken." Zhang Reasonable said.
Fang Fengdi said with some embarrassment: "I have tried my best to supplement nutrition for him. With this little financial condition at home, just bringing him basketball shoes from abroad is a huge expense."
Zhang Lili said again: "He is currently in the Sharks Junior Team in Shanghai, and he plans to be transferred to the first team to play in the CBA next year."
"Playing in the professional league at the age of 15?"
Lao Wang was surprised, and shook his head quickly: "It's too early, and it will cause premature consumption of his body and affect his career."
Fang Fengdi and Dayao looked at each other, not knowing how to answer this question.
Although Fang Fengdi is an old women's basketball team, to be honest, not to mention her era, even now, the domestic level is far behind foreign countries in terms of training, injury recovery, physical research, etc. She doesn't know much about this aspect.
Moreover, it is too expensive to play, and besides, Dayao's current ability to play in the youth team is not competitive at all.
Lao Wang continued: "His bones are not very strong. Once he gains weight, he will consume more bones. For example, his lower limb joints and feet will easily accumulate stress injuries in the long run. I don't recommend him to start playing professional games next year."
Zhang Lili also said: "NBA players generally start their careers after they go to college. Many of them are drafted in their juniors and seniors. I think Yao must be at least 18 years old. He can play in the CBA after his bones and muscles are strong. He will only be 15 years old next year. His bones have not grown well."
Lao Wang asked, "How about his other talents?"
Zhang Lili said excitedly: "It's a bit worse than Dazhi, but it's also very good. It feels very good, and the moving speed is also good..."
After listening to Lao Zhang's talk, Lao Wang had a basic understanding of Dayao's situation, and said, "Well, let's train in the summer camp for a while, and I'll see and talk about it later."
Liu Yumin, who had been silent all this time, also said at this time: "Old Fang, I think it depends on Tiejun. Dayao is indeed a little younger at this age. It won't be too late to fight when he is a little older."
Since they all said that, Fang Fengdi could only nod her head, which was her agreement.
But she has a headache how to find money to supplement Dayao's nutrition, and if she doesn't join a professional team, sneakers are also a big problem.
Moreover, staying in the youth team is not a problem.
When she mentioned this question, Wang Tiejun and others also felt that it was right that they could no longer stay in the youth team.
In the end, I still have to play the CBA. After all, the intensity of the CBA games is low, and there are only eight teams, the number of games is small, and the consumption of the body is also small.
Next, the distribution of equipment began. Each person first distributed two pairs of basketball shoes, two training clothes, wristbands and other small equipment.
"My name is Zhu Fangyu, I'm 12 years old, what's your name?"
"My name is Wang Shipeng, and I am also 12 years old."
"My name is Du Feng, I'm 14 years old."
"My name is Yao Min, and I will be 15 soon."
"I'm Liu Wei, and I'm a teammate with Dayao, the same age."
"I, my name is Sun Le, 10 years old." Sun Le, who was holding a ball, squeezed in forcefully, shouting on tiptoe.
"Hey, the minimum age to enter the camp is 12 years old, you came in at the age of 10, did you go through the back door?" Zhu Fangyu said with a look of contempt.
"My brother is old K. I just came over from Cangzhou with him." Sun Le said proudly.
"Wow!" Everyone exclaimed.
"Then his surname is Wang and your surname is Sun?" Zhu Fangyu responded quickly and authentically.
"I knew him from the day I was born, if you don't believe me, ask him." Sun Le shouted angrily.
He also raised the ball in his hand and shouted proudly: "This is Jordan's signature basketball. Old K gave it to me. I still have Jordan's signature sneakers at home, and I am reluctant to wear them."
"Wow!"
The children gave another burst of envious exclamation.
A group of young people who had received the equipment got together and chatted. The voices of one hundred and one children turned the entire arena into a chicken coop.
This time, Wang Tiejun not only invited several trainers from the United States, but also two scouts. He wanted to create a primary profile for these children to help him analyze these children, so as to select good seedlings worth emphasizing on training.
"Brother Zhang, Brother Ma, you will help out this afternoon by taking physical examinations and building files for these children," he said.
"Don't worry, leave it to us." Zhang Lili and Ma Jian said.
"Let's go, let's keep up, you're probably hungry, and we'll have dinner right away after the room is allocated."
Then Zhang Lili took one hundred and one young people and their families to arrange accommodation, and the arena became quiet.
"Liu Chu, Director Jiang, Director Gong, let's go, it's almost two o'clock, let's go have dinner." Lao Wang greeted, and a group of people went to the restaurant of the training hall.
There is only one dining room, with a few long dining tables, the kind used in the army, which can accommodate up to a hundred people for dining. Due to the needs of the summer camp, a warehouse next to it was converted into a temporary dining room for those children to eat.
For the prepared buffet, Pharaoh ordered a meal. After sitting down, Hu Weidong sat next to him, and then Da Zhi sat on the other side. Hula, the long table that can seat 20 people was quickly filled.
"Old K, tell us about the NBA." Hu Weidong said while eating.
"Okay."
Lao Wang told them some things about the NBA while eating, which made them listen with great interest, and they couldn't even think about eating.
On another long table, the coaches of the national team were eating there. They were eating while paying attention to the situation here.
"These days, what they like to talk about most is Old K and the NBA. If this continues, it will have an impact."
"What are you afraid of?"
"Alas, the Olympics are coming, and I worry about their distraction."
"Hu Weidong and Dazhi are the most talked about. I think they have the idea of going to the NBA."
"They? Are they strong enough to play in the NBA?"
Listening to the discussions of several coaches, Liu Yumin couldn't help but slow down his eating speed.
As a person in charge of domestic basketball affairs, she has too many issues to consider, such as the establishment and development of the national team, CBA, the Olympics, etc., and even the psychological problems and future issues of the players of the national team are all things she cares about.
For the members of the national team who yearn for the NBA, she has been mentally prepared for this issue early on.
As the old saying goes, water flows to low places, and people go to high places, wanting to play in the NBA. This is human nature, and there is nothing surprising about it.
Take a look at Wang Tiejun, who has played in the NBA for three years. He was uneducated when he went to the United States. What is the weather like now?
This kind of example is right in front of her eyes. If the members of the national team have no ideas, she will scold them for not seeking to improve.
Regarding this issue, she has to consider it from three angles.
One, the perspective of the national team.
If someone from the national team can play in the NBA, it will undoubtedly improve their level, which is beneficial to the national team.
Second, the angle of CBA.
If you really go, it will undoubtedly damage the development of CBA.
The CBA has just been established this year, the first season has not yet started, the contract has just been signed, the best players want to run, which clubs can agree? Is the CBA still in the works?
Third, the player's perspective.
These three angles are the perspectives of her various identities. Needless to say, the national team and the CBA, she is just a player. These young people call her Mama Liu, like Hu Weidong.And going to the NBA, improving strength, can also make the national team stronger, right?
So it's very embarrassing. Fortunately, this issue is just a symptom. They dream of the NBA, but whether they have the strength is still a question mark. Whether they have a chance is even more of a problem. She decides when to talk to Wang Tiejun about this issue.
The next day, the Tiejun summer camp opened.
As the battalion commander, Wang Tiejun simply said a few words of encouragement, and then the deputy battalion commander Zhang Lili also said a few words, and the summer camp began.
In order to use Lao Wang's equipment, the national team also trains here, but in the other two training halls, there is one for men and women, and there are four training halls in total, two for the summer camp and two for the national team.
