At this time, an award ceremony was held in the Rome Basketball Stadium. The three teams that won the championship, runner-up, and third place, the Chinese team, the United States team, and the Spanish team, stood in the center of the venue. First, Spain, which won the third place, took the stage. It was chaired by FIBA ​​Vice President, European

Basketball Federation Chairman Johnson personally presented them with bronze medals and flowers

Then came the runner-up American team. There was no frustration on their faces because they were convinced of their defeat. They had no chance in the whole game. The Chinese team's offense was incomprehensible to them.

Finally, the most exciting moment for the Huaxia fans came. As the host announced: "The winner of this competition is - the Huaxia team!" The boys of the Huaxia team, draped in national flags, under the leadership of coach Yu Haiming, performed moves

They jumped up neatly, raised their arms and shouted

The guests who presented the award were very important. FIBA ​​President Mannini and Italian President Giorgio Napolitano came up to present the award. It was originally scheduled to be presented by the mayor of Rome, but in order to thank Zhou Tao for his contribution to the Rome Museum, the President

Sir decided to take action personally

When hanging the gold medal around Zhou Tao's neck, President George held his hand and said: "Thank you, dear Mr. Zhou Tao! You not only brought us a wonderful basketball game, but also helped our country restore its reputation. Thank you very much."

you!"

Zhou Tao smiled without a red face and said: "Mr. President, you are too polite! As a just person, you should do those things."

Seeing that he was not arrogant or impetuous, George admired him even more and said, "What a young hero. He will become a great person one day!"

After the collective awards were handed out, Mannini gave Zhou Tao the Best Player trophy, which represents the highest personal honor. When Zhou Tao raised the championship trophy and the Best Player trophy, the whole audience was in an uproar, "Zhou Tao, I love you!

"Cryings of "A majestic and mighty strategy, I am the only one in China" keep coming.

Finally, it was time to raise the national flag. The majestic national anthem rang out in the stadium. Chinese fans and players sang the national anthem together, with tears streaming down their faces.

After the flag-raising ceremony was over, President George took the microphone and said loudly: "I announce that Mr. Zhou Tao will become the honorary mayor of Rome in recognition of his great contribution to the city of Rome!"

The whole audience was silent for a moment, and then gave out huge cheers. This is an extremely huge honor and the greatest compliment that Italy can give to a foreign citizen!

But Zhou Tao doesn't seem to care much. For him, such nihilistic things are of no use. It's better to give a few beauties as gifts (sweat!)

As if she heard his heartfelt wishes, the beauty really arrived. Evani flew over like a bird, nestled in his arms, and said with admiration: "Husband, you are so amazing!"

Zhou Tao hugged her and laughed softly: "Of course, if I'm not strong, how can I conquer you?"

Evani's face turned red and she spat: "Husband, I wonder why you are always so lustful in your mind!"

Zhou Tao was deliberately stunned and said: "Honey, I didn't get into anything, why did I get associated with sex? Could it be that you thought about it yourself?"

Evani's face turned even redder, she pinched his soft flesh with one hand and said, "Bad husband, I won't talk to you anymore, he always bullies others!"

Zhou Tao laughed loudly and hugged her out of the arena. As for what to do, everyone can figure it out for themselves, haha!

In the reception room of China Capital International Airport, a huge group attracted special attention because the composition of this group was very dazzling: except for a dozen burly men who looked like bodyguards, the rest were all beauties.

Or a Chinese and foreign combination?

Their faces were full of anticipation, and their eyes were looking outside, for fear of missing the moment when the plane arrived.

At 1:10 p.m., a Boeing 747 landed, and the announcement in the pick-up room also sounded: "Dear friends, the direct flight from Rome to Beijing has landed. Friends who are picking up the plane, please be ready!"

The beauty group immediately cheered, and a girl with a childlike face said: "Great, my husband is back! Hey, Qianqian, why are you crying?"

Qianqian, that is, Chen Qian rubbed her eyes, trying to hide it but she couldn't stop her tears. She missed Zhou Tao so much. They hadn't seen each other for more than 20 days. Although the phone calls continued every day, the missing her became more and more.

concentrated

Zhang Jing hugged her and said with a smile: "Qianqian, we should be happy that our husband is back. Be good, don't cry!"

Chen Qian stopped her tears and said shyly: "I didn't want to cry at first, but the tears flowed out by themselves. Believe it or not, my husband would never have thought that we would come to the capital to pick him up!"

The girls didn't tell Zhou Tao before they came, they just asked him about his flight back. They missed him so much that they couldn't wait for him to return to G City, so they went straight to the capital.

At the passenger exit, members of the Huaxia team, led by Yu Haiming, slowly walked out. A group of reporters came up, flashlights flashing, long guns and short cannons pointed at Zhou Tao, and asked questions one by one.

Almost knocked him unconscious

Yu Haiming raised his hands and said loudly: "Everyone, we have been flying for a day and are really exhausted. We will hold a press conference at the Basketball Center at 4:30 in the afternoon. Can you come back and ask me?"

The reporters still refused to leave. As a last resort, Zhou Tao had no choice but to come forward: "Hello everyone! I know you are waiting here just for first-hand news. However, our coach said that we are really tired. Please wait a moment."

Wait two or three hours, and then at the press conference, if you have any questions, feel free to ask them, and we will answer them one by one!"

Seeing Zhou Tao say this, the reporters had no choice but to put away their microphones and step aside to let them pass.

Seven charming faces appeared in front of the team. Zhou Tao was stunned for a moment, and then shouted in surprise: "Why are you here?"

The girls had discussed it when they came. In order not to expose their relationship, only Zhang Jing came forward. So, Zhang Jing stepped forward, looked at Zhou Tao affectionately, and said softly: "We miss you!" A simple sentence.

, contains thousands of words

Seeing that the girls did not come up to make out, Zhou Tao knew that they were worried about others, so he took Zhang Jing's hand and said, "You go find a hotel to stay first, and I will go there after the summary meeting and press conference."

Zhang Jing nodded and said to the girls: "Sisters, we've seen him too. He hasn't got time to meet with us yet. Let's leave first and then have dinner with him in the evening!" After the girls retreated, Li Juncheng led the big men up.

He shouted: "Boss, welcome back!"

Zhou Tao looked at everyone and said with satisfaction: "It seems that you have made progress again, not bad!"

Li Juncheng said loudly: "For the honor of the company, we need to make progress every day to live up to the boss's expectations!"

Zhou Tao nodded and said: "Okay, you escort them away, be careful, the capital is a complicated place, don't get into trouble!"

Li Juncheng said loudly: "Don't worry, boss, as long as I am here, I will never let anything happen to the ladies!"

Watching the girls leaving, Shi Fei came up to him and rolled his eyes: "Boss, who were those girls just now?"

Zhou Tao smiled and scolded: "Why are you so gossipy? I tell you, don't think wrongly, they all have their wives!"

Shi Fei immediately withered: "No? Oh, why are all the good cabbages now given to pigs!"

Zhou Tao kicked him away: "Get out! How dare you say that your boss and I are a pig and don't want to live anymore?"

Shi Fei was shocked: "Boss, are they all yours?"

Zhou Tao said proudly: "Of course! So I tell you to stop thinking and don't be discouraged. There is no grass anywhere in the world. Even if you can't find it, I will help you find a few!"

The director of the Basketball Management Center also came to greet him in person, but he had been blocked out just now. Now he finally had the opportunity to come up. He held Yu Haiming's hand tightly and said excitedly: "Lao Yu, thank you for your hard work! I represent the Basketball Association.

Highest respect to you!"

With the fatigue of the journey, Yu Haiming's mood was no longer as exciting as when he won the championship. At this time, he held Director Hu's hand and said calmly: "Director, you have given me the award. It is all the credit of the children. I have no hard work at all!"

Director Hu chuckled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, especially Zhou Tao. You have made the people of the country feel proud and proud!"

Zhou Tao said modestly: "The credit belongs to everyone. Without their cooperation, I would be just a scumbag."

Director Hu smiled and said: "Humility is a virtue, and it seems that Zhou Tao, you have mastered three of them! Okay, everyone has worked hard all the way, let's go to the center to rest for a while!"

After leaving the pick-up room, there were actually a large number of fans waiting outside. Most of them were wearing Zhou Tao's No. 4 jersey, holding various signs and cheering loudly for the Chinese team.

When the team passed by them, the fans held up various items and handed them over for signatures. Zhou Tao smiled slightly. He has always been very tolerant to the fans, so he took the lead in signing the names.

However, there were too many fans. Director Hu saw that it was not possible. This must have exhausted these young men. He quickly said loudly: "Fear fans, the team members are very tired after a long flight. Please let them go back and rest for the time being."

,OK?"

These fans were relatively rational. Seeing that Zhou Tao and others looked really tired, they consciously put away their signature tools and asked the team to get in the car and leave.

After a two-hour break, Yu Haiming led Zhou Tao to attend a press conference in the conference hall of the Basketball Management Center. The meeting was personally presided over by the director of the Basketball Management Center.

A reporter first asked: "Excuse me, Zhou Tao, you shone brightly and were invincible at this World Youth Championship. How did you do it?"

Zhou Tao cleared his voice and said with a smile: "Ability plus confidence! Everyone knows that I can do martial arts, right? Well, first of all, I have a body that is beyond ordinary people, which gives me an advantage in confrontation ability. In addition, I usually practice hard on my ball skills, and I have mastered basic skills.

Only by being solid can we perform as well as we do today.”

Another reporter asked: "In other words, practicing martial arts well is fundamental?"

Zhou Tao smiled and said: "You can also say that, actually what I mean is that good physical fitness, good basic skills, and super self-confidence are the keys to my success!"

A beautiful reporter stood up and said: "Zhou Tao, everyone is very concerned about a topic now, that is, will you participate in the NBA draft next year?"
