Chapter 2 Public Enemy

Finally, all the reporters understood the meaning of Chen Junhao's last Chinese sentence, and then all the reporters' eyes were instantly focused on Chen Junhao. The angry, sarcastic and playful expressions appeared alternately on the faces of the American reporters, and then they all surrounded them with a "wow" sound, squeezed in, and the microphones desperately rushed forward. After all, the reporters were reporters, and when they first thought of it, they still caught news. Several Chinese reporters reacted significantly inferiorly. When they came to react, they had already rushed over to the American reporters and squeezed outside.

The American journalists failed, and a huge figure appeared there with his arms spread out, blocking everyone's target Chen Junhao behind - Smith: "Sorry, the time for the interview is up. We are about to start training, please avoid it!"

Of course, the reporters were unwilling to give up on this opportunity to seize the news easily, but under Smith's order, the coach, the physical coach, and the team doctor also surrounded him and forcibly "invited" everyone to the stadium.

"Bang!" The door closed, and the reporters' eyes blocked outside the door. "Swish swish swish swish..." The curtains in the stadium quickly pulled up, and Smith also strangled the reporters' last thoughts.

In the stadium, Smith looked at Chen Junhao and sighed: "The disaster comes from the mouth. Now these reporters are going to make a big fuss."

Chen Junhao shrugged and said disapprovingly: "I just told the truth."

"It's the truth, but you can't tell the reporters, and you can't say it at this time. Now the whole United States is crazy about this 81 point. Isn't it obvious that you are throwing cold water on the other side of the media? After tomorrow, your image in the media will be "arrogant and ignorant Chinese boy". Missouri will become a public enemy of the whole United States." Smith smiled bitterly, "I originally hoped to win the sympathy of the media."

Chen Junhao smiled faintly and said, "I know all of these, coach, you have the intention, but," he suddenly turned around and looked at Smith, "We can't be prepared for the reason to fail before the sea of ​​competition begins. Missouri does not need sympathy."

Smith smiled bitterly and didn't say anything. What could he say at this time? He had to pay for the youthful ace's enthusiasm. Although Smith did not immediately surrender and admit defeat under the current situation, he knew how slim the hope of victory was. As the head coach, he had to prepare for failure. But he could not blame his players for his recklessness. Can he be angry about his ace's fighting spirit to never give up? Of course not.

Now there is only one who can do his best to win the next two games, at least not to mock the media or make a sarcastic statement.

In fact, there is another way possible, but Smith never thought: if Chen Junhao could also score 81 points in the game, or only 70 points, the media would immediately turn 180 degrees. A rising genius star, a stunning and extraordinary genius, and a peerless genius who can be compared with the greatest NBA player, media fans would cheer for it.

But is this possible? Smith never considered how likely this kind of thing was. In history, players who had scored more than 70 points in a single game plus the 81 points they just scored, only four people. And with the increasing emphasis on defense in basketball games, this possibility has been reduced to approaching zero to the lowest point, so 81 points will be so great.

Eighty-one points, this is definitely a statistic that makes all basketball players excited. Chen Junhao once thought that the limit that can be reached on a modern basketball court was only sixty points. He had already approached this limit so much, and he really didn't need to prove anything in scoring. He personally did not appreciate this way of playing. If he had stronger teammates around him, why didn't he pass the ball out? It was Chen Junhao's basketball philosophy in the most correct way - at least for now. But as a basketball player, Chen Junhao is still a fighter who longs for challenges and yearns for challenges. Whether to defeat or not is not the most important thing. When setting a monument and a living example in front of him, turning a blind eye is definitely not his style.

When Anthony, Carman and Chen Junhao were on the court, the Trident was undoubtedly the team's offensive focus. As the "Missouri Brain", Chen Junhao must focus on integrating the entire team and integrating the Trident's attack power as the primary task, which in fact limits his performance in offensive scoring.

However, this time Anthony and Carman were lying in the hospital, leaving only Chen Junhao and Chen Junhao alone in the trident. No matter how Missouri shouted about his bad luck, or Chen Junhao personally was unwilling, this objectively gave Chen Junhao an opportunity to show his offensive scoring ability. It is also time for him to show his offensive ability. As the leader of the team, he must be able to drive the ball to win - no matter what difficult circumstances.

Bent over and grabbed a basketball, and gravity pressed down the "papapapapapapa..." The sound of dribbling suddenly burst out, and the figure holding the ball rushed to the basket. I met two teammates blocking the sprint road in front of me and did not slow down. Two "papapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapapa

Running past himself, blinking his eyes and chasing him, the figure dribbling had already jumped up. He raised the ball high above his head with his right hand, diving towards the basket like a giant bomber. A tomahawk dunk? Just when everyone thought it was a heavy dunk, the basketball held high above his head suddenly retracted, and the gliding body swept through the basket like feathers, and his backhand hooked "Swhoo, swish!" The basketball gently fell into the basket.

He lifted the weight easily and controlled it freely. A group of people looked at the person who had just suddenly started to complete the layup - Chen Junhao, all of whom were stunned.

He bent down to pick up the basketball, and the right five-finger spinning basketball stood firmly on the raised index finger and rotated quickly. When the rotation ended, the basketball flipped and gently fell back into his hand. He grabbed the basketball with one hand and swept over the teammates in the game with a gentle look, saying, "I don't want to lose tomorrow's game, and I don't want to lose in the next game. After these two games, Jason and Mike came back to fall. After two games, we swept the whole United States and were invincible Missouri. But we can't welcome the return of our teammates with two failures."

There was a buzzing sound from everyone, and no one spoke with Chen Junhao. It seemed that Chen Junhao's words were too incredible and too shocking. The opponents in the next two games of Missouri were Ohio State University in the Big Ten and the University of Colorado in the league. These two opponents were naturally not afraid of Missouri. They were still far from approaching these two opponents compared to top teams such as Duke and Kansas. The morale of defeating the top team in the United States is not something that these two opponents can shake. But the current situation is a different matter.

Can Missouri really continue to play the roster?

The eyes swept across the faces of every teammate, and it was already gentle and peaceful, but every player, Chen Junhao, looked over them, and couldn't help but lower his head, not daring to look at the warm all eyes. They all seemed ashamed that they dared not respond to such expectations.

"I also know how difficult it is to win the game in this situation. But the reason why a strong team is a strong team is that they can break out when they encounter difficulties." Chen Junhao did not angrily, and his gentle tone was as warm as it was filled with powerful infectiousness. Finally, his eyes swept across everyone, "If you can't trust yourself, trust me. Trust me, we still have the ability to win the game."

"Of course we believe you." At this time, someone finally stood up. Chen Junhao's substitute, point guard Charlton, among this group of players, has the highest prestige except Chen Junhao. Charlton stood out: "Jack, don't worry. Although our group may not be able to replace Jason and others, no one wants to lose. If anyone wants to take the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, it is not that easy to win a victory from us."

Smith appeared behind Chen Junhao at this time and said, "Since you have communicated, we will start practicing tactics for the following two games. Now everyone is clear about our situation, and everyone should understand the situation of our two opponents. We have played one game in the first half of the season, and this time they will not miss the opportunity to revenge. Before the tactical exercise, I first set a principle: among the five people on the court, pass it to Jack when the player's ball has no chance to take action, and he will handle it. When Jack's chances are better, the ball will be passed to him and handed over to him to complete the attack. It is always a sentence: Our offense takes Jack as the absolute core, Jack's rhythm is the rhythm of the team, Jack's offense is the attack of the whole team, and others must cooperate with the cover. Do you have any questions?"

"No!" everyone answered in unison.

"Jack!" Smith's eyes finally stared at Chen Junhao.

Chen Junhao nodded heavily.

Smith's eyes suddenly raised and his big hand waved: "Start training."

...

At 11 o'clock in the afternoon, when Chen Junhao dragged his sweaty body out of the court, Xiao Shijie was leaning against the door of the locker room with his arms held at the door.

Chen Junhao said in surprise: "Why are you here?"

Xiao Shijie put down his arm and pulled out a towel from behind him, saying, "I am your personal sports doctor. How can I not be here at this time? Go and take a shower, I will give you a massage."

Chen Junhao said: "No need, the fifteen people here all have the same training, everyone is just as tired, I don't want to show any specialness."

Xiao Shijie did not insist and said, "Okay, you can take a shower. Let's take a look at the house before lunch."

"Didn't you just want to decide?"

"You still have to look at the Tao. Hurry up, I'll wait for you in the car."

"Okay. Then wait for me for a while."

...

After taking a shower, Chen Junhao walked out of the arena with his bag in his arms. Xiao Shijie's car suddenly heard exactly two steps away in front of him. The door opened: "Get in the car!"

Chen Junhao threw his bag on the rear seat and sat down in the co-pilot. After the car started and drove steadily toward the outside school.

Inside the car, Xiao Shijie held the steering wheel and looked forward, saying, "What did you do that is so angry that people complain? Just now, the radio station was filled with voices like "Missouri Chinese defender arrogance."

Chen Junhao laughed and said, "You know, too? I didn't expect the news to spread so quickly."

Xiao Shijie grabbed the steering wheel and took the time to turn his head to look at Chen Junhao, and said, "You don't look surprised at all."

"What's the surprise of what was expected?" Chen Junhao opened his arms in the car and stretched his body, held the back of his head with his hands on the seat, closed his eyes and expressed his expression with a pleasant and comfortable expression.

Xiao Shijie saw the expression on Chen Junhao's face from the rearview mirror in the car and laughed: "It turns out that I am worried about it. But I don't understand how you can be so relaxed? In the media and public opinion, you are the public enemy of the United States."

"I'm just telling the truth." Chen Junhao closed his eyes and rested, "Actually, I enjoyed this feeling very much. It's not bad to play a negative role occasionally. It's not bad to play a negative role. The first time I found that challenging authority was so happy." His eyes suddenly opened, "Eighty-one points, is it really an unattainable goal? Hum!" With a last snorkeling, the eyes shot out of infinite firmness and burning fighting spirit.

Xiao Shijie didn't say anything else and drove quietly.

...

The house Xiao Shijie was looking for was an apartment not far from the city. It had three bedrooms and two living rooms, and it had a complete facility. Xiao Shijie even specially set up a medical room. Next to the apartment is a park, a basketball court downstairs, a nearby shopping mall, and a supermarket are very convenient. The rent for such a house is naturally expensive. However, for them, the rent is of course not within the scope of consideration.

Of course, Chen Junhao would not give any advice, so the matter of the house was settled. When he returned to the dormitory after lunch, the moving company's car was already waiting downstairs. Xiao Shijie's efficiency in his work was really shocking.

Chen Junhao obviously did not expect that leaving would come so quickly, but he could only smile bitterly at the facts but the facts were there and packed up quickly. Chen Junhao's things were very simple, and Xiao Shijie's luggage had not even been opened. In less than an hour, Chen Junhao had settled down in his new residence.

...

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Xiao Shijie walked out of his room and poured a glass of water and sat down in the living room. The house was quiet. Isn't Chen Junhao in the room? Or did he not wake up? The bodyguard's professional instinct made him walk to Chen Junhao's door and push it. The door was covered with a faint door. He pushed open the door and looked quietly. In front of the desk at the window of the room, the owner of the room was sitting there, holding a pen in his hand and reading intently. A thick pile of books was piled up next to him. Those books were seen when Xiao Shijie moved at noon, and they were all major books for university courses. If Xiao Shijie remembered correctly, it should not be something that an ordinary sophomore student could understand.

Xiao Shijie quietly opened the door and quietly closed it, retreating back to the living room.

What a very self-disciplined boy. Xiao Shijie secretly praised himself. He returned to the sofa and held the cup in his left hand and grabbed the remote control and turned on the TV with his right hand.

The TV broadcasts the news program. "The Great Kobe, the Great Eighty-One Points", "A greater achievement than Chamberlain 100". Change the channel, variety show talk show, the host chats with guests and laughs, "The Great Kobe, the Great Eighty-One Points" and another channel, "The Great Emperor, the Great Kobe." It is still a conversation program, with several people on the screen saying that from all aspects, these 81 points are indeed a hundred points that exceed Chamberlain. Kobe is really the greatest star in the NBA today.

Xiao Shijie really has no interest in basketball, and he also feels that the praises of these people are too stingy. He lifted the remote control in his hand and was about to change the channel again. At this time, several people on the TV changed the topic: "I just heard a news. Missouri, a college team that has recently encountered collective flu, is ready to swore their hands and swore to continue the victory under the leadership of their Chinese defender Jack. Missouri's record this year is indeed quite brilliant, and it is even more surprising that he can still have such morale in this situation."

"Yes, I'm very optimistic about Missouri this year. The Trident combination is indeed the best American college basketball team in the past decade. Their record of winning all eighteen games is amazing. But I think you should be more than just admiring Missouri at this time? Is there something surprising happening in Missouri again?"

"I did hear something bad about the rumors. I heard that Jack said something interesting to say about these 81 points during an interview."

"Oh? What did you say?" asked Guest A.

"Eighty-one points are great, but they are not unprecedented, nor are they no ones who come later." Guest B said in poor Chinese. I believe that most Chinese people will be confused after hearing this. Of course, Americans will not understand even more.

Guest A asked a question for the audience: "What does this sentence mean?"

"This sentence means: Chamberlain's 100 points before eighty-one points. And someone will definitely reach the same level in the future. The implication is that he will definitely surpass Bryant's achievements in the future."

"Hahaha..." Several people on TV burst into laughter, as if they had heard the funnyest jokes in the world. They had to admire these people's ability to misinterpret them. A well-ruled truth came to them and became the best evidence of Chen Junhao's arrogance and ignorance.

A man laughed in the laughter and said, "Haha, it's a good thing for young people to be confident, but it's not possible to be too arrogant. As far as I know, Jack is not a point guard who focuses on scoring but has no idea where his confidence comes from."

"Hahaha, who said no?"

"Bang!" Xiao Shijie pressed the remote control and turned off the TV, "A few idiots."
Chapter completed!
