There were two high school students' performances as a base. At least from the two points of athletic talent and shooting talent, he had a pretty good draft market. The questioning and negative comments were mostly because of skipping college, and Zhang Hao's mentality became stable.

In China, the media reported that a high school student in the United States skipped college to participate in the NBA draft, and that many teams were interested in it, and again reported that Zhang Hao's previous performance in the McDonald's slam dunk contest and Adidas training camp caused an uproar in the domestic sports circle!

Previously, Xinhua News Agency reported that Zhang Hao won the slam dunk contest, but the title was the slam dunk contest champion of McDonald's High School Students. Not many people care. In the perception of domestic fans in this era, how powerful can high school students be?

The same is true for the subsequent Adidas training camp, but in the NBA draft, there will be a second round of market conditions, which is very different!

In 1992, the three giants of the Dream Team's Demon Birds brought the NBA to the world, which triggered a basketball craze in China. It was the golden age of the outside world. The famous basketball player and Asian No. 1 Song Tao was selected by the Atlanta Hawks in the third round of the draft in 1986. Unfortunately, Song Tao faded out of the basketball world due to injury in 1988. Domestic fans are looking forward to a Chinese player entering the NBA.

But in recent years, Chinese players have also tried to train in the NBA, but the feedback they received was not good. In the end, no one tried to participate in the draft. The national team dominated Asia, but when they fought with European and American strong teams, the gap was very big. Over the years, domestic fans have been doubting whether Chinese players can enter the NBA.

Therefore, although Wang Zhizhi was "sanctioned" by the Blue Association in the future, many people were still complaining. Therefore, there were sensation caused by Yao Ming's first-class pick and the basketball craze that really caused.

No one expected that after 8 years, a Chinese player suddenly appeared to participate in the NBA draft. Not to mention the good market, he was still an 18-year-old high school student!

For foreign affairs, the channels for Chinese people to obtain information are actually very closed, so they can give the so-called public intellectuals the opportunity to promote some fantasy things.

This time, some public intellectuals began to jump out and make some strange arguments.

In short, Zhang Hao became popular in the domestic sports circle all of a sudden!

Many people want to know what this matter is and want to know Zhang Hao’s information. However, not to mention ordinary people, not to mention ordinary people, few professionals in the sports industry in China know Zhang Hao’s information, and they all have to check it out.

At this time, the NBA took the initiative to provide Zhang Hao's information to domestic media...

Is it because domestic media don’t want to get Zhang Hao’s detailed information as soon as possible?

Of course not, because Zhang Hao seems to be like a rock in the domestic sports world. As soon as he comes out, he will soon enter the world's highest-level basketball league in the United States. He really can't get much information.

Although the Blue Association has no idea why a group of people wander around, openly and secretly wanting the media not to report about Zhang Hao, some people buy it, but some people still don’t buy it. Since one of them doesn’t buy it, this matter cannot be suppressed.

Many young media people don’t know what the Lan Association is thinking about why it is “suppressing news”. Older media people can guess the magical brain circuits of domestic officials at once.

But they really don't have anything to report now.

Moreover, there are not many media outlets in China that have overseas news channels. Most overseas news is reposted. Media with offices stationed in overseas can count them with both hands.

Among these media outlets of Blue Association, there is a super big boss - Xinhua News Agency Sports News Department.

Will they care about the Blue Association? In addition to being a state official media organization, they are also a legal news regulator.

However, they could not contact Zhang Hao again!

After the previous dunk contest, some young and strong players in the Xinhua News Agency's Sports News Department wanted to make a long report on the basic analysis of the American basketball industry based on Zhang Hao, and explore American basketball. However, a group of young people in their 30s had no say, and this matter was left unresolved.

But he knew that Zhang Hao was constantly making trouble. He also made trouble when he participated in the Adidas training camp. He was about to choose a university and started making trouble again... The senior executives of Xinhua News Agency also began to pay attention to Zhang Hao and finally prepared to report it well, but it was just like Xu Jicheng couldn't find it when he went to find Zhang Hao.

As a result, the NBA sent the information to their headquarters...

After repeatedly confirming that the information is true and there will be no oath incident, Xinhua News Agency held a special event for Zhang Hao! The cover of the "Global" weekly under Xinhua News Agency is a picture of Zhang Hao's previous dunk contest!

The big brother began to report on Zhang Hao, and the imperial sports station also reported it.

There are not many video materials available during the TV station's news report, so domestic sports fans learned that in the United States, there is a hobby of singing, dancing, rap, basketball. Chinese talented high school basketball players who have been training for two and a half years are about to enter the NBA...

Although the focus is on reporting Zhang Hao's participation in the NBA draft, with this information, domestic media only knows that Zhang Hao's participation in the draft, his age, school, etc., and they still don't know anything else.

However, compared with the previous lack of in-depth understanding, the top domestic media now have a window to understand in-depth - the NBA.

Originally, domestic media had little attention to the NBA draft trial, but now they have actively contacted the NBA. People did not give Zhang Hao the contact information, saying that it might cause legal disputes. They chose to wait for Zhang Hao to interview during the trial trial.

Domestic media are not stupid, so of course they know the meaning of the NBA headquarters.

Many young media people in China lamented that the feng shui changed. Thinking about the past, David Stern waited for several hours in the cold wind before he got the opportunity to meet with the official, and then gave the broadcasting rights for free, so that the court station could broadcast the NBA video. At that time, they were like old men, and they begged them to report, but now they are going to do the opposite.

But what can I do? This world is so cruel.

It is said that after receiving a reply from the Chinese imperial sports station, a hearty laughter came from the bathroom of the NBA headquarters president's office...

...

There is a Chinese player who is likely to enter the NBA and has a high possibility of entering the NBA. Of course, domestic sports media are excited, and the Chinese people's views on this matter are in a polarized trend.

As the saying goes, if a bird is big, there are all kinds of forests... No, if a bird is big, there are all kinds of birds...

I was so excited about this that many sports fans, but there were also sarcastic voices, and even the argument "Why did he go to the United States to study" emerged.

But this has nothing to do with Zhang Hao for the time being. His attention is not at all on the media. He cannot see domestic news at all, let alone pay attention to those things.

His focus is on the next draft trial.

On May 29, the team he was going to participate in the trial was basically confirmed.

There are several teams that must be visited, most of which are teams with mid- and late draft picks in the first round.

His goal is not just the second round. Although he did not pay much attention to media evaluations, he also knew that his draft market was not bad. The second round was the guarantee option. He definitely wanted to get a guarantee contract in the first round, at least he would get a guarantee contract. Even if there are no strict regulations for rookie contracts these days, there is only one regulation that contracts are guarantee contracts and can be signed for ten years...

Also, if he was selected in the first round, he could get a silver gift package given by Goldfinger!

On the Spurs side, Popovich is serving as general manager. With this management staff who loves overseas players, Zhang Hao thinks he can try it.

The Pistons, Suns, Supersonics, Mavericks, and Zhang Hao's target teams.

These five teams are the teams Zhang Hao wants to go to the most. Just so happens, the Suns, the Supersonics, and the Pistons are also interested in him and invited him to participate. The Spurs and the Mavericks took the initiative to call to apply for a trial, and the other party agreed.

It was just that the three teams of the Suns, Supersonics and Pistons not only included food and accommodation during the trial training, but also had to book air tickets. When they went to the two teams in Texas to try, they were only responsible for food and accommodation, and they took care of their own air tickets...

In addition to these five teams, Zhang Hao also accepted a trial training invitation from the Lakers, Clippers and 76ers.

Two local teams, one that has been paying attention to Kobe Bryant but found someone hit Kobe in the game.

The 8 teams have a lot of schedules. From May 30 to June 22, Zhang Hao either tried out or rushed to the city where the next trial team is located.

...

"The remaining life span is 392 days, and the available life span is 391 days."

Zhang Hao took another look at the time he could live, and the number of days was decreasing... But this was not the most annoying thing for him.

"I'll go to the trial, what are you two doing with me?"

Zhang Hao looked at the left and right guardians beside him. The key was that this guardian was a fat man and a beautiful Latino girl...

At 7:30 in the morning on May 30, Zhang Hao set out from the apartment and headed to the Great Western Forum Arena. Pierce and April Clark got up earlier than him and had to go out to his door and wait at the door sooner.

"Hehehe..."

The two of them smiled foolishly at the same time, and the meaning was very obvious. They wanted to visit the Great Western Forum Hall again.

Zhang Hao rubbed his forehead - forget it, just go there. Anyway, the Lakers' 37th pick is not his target, and the Clippers are the same. The Clippers' second pick is not his position, so it seems that it is impossible to choose him no matter how hard it is. Even if you take people to visit, it will affect the Lakers' impression of him, and he doesn't care much.

Moreover, the Lakers have three quasi-All-star outsiders, including Van Exel, Eddie Jones, and Cedric Cebaros, as well as George Lynch, Anthony Pierre, and Royd Daniels. These six people almost occupy all the playing time of the outside players. If he is selected by the Lakers in the second round, it will be quite miserable.

However, Zhang Hao was still ready for the trial training. He did not leave training after collecting information in the past few days. April Clark and Pierce are working hard to help so that he can have more time to prepare for training.

The Lakers and the Clippers are Zhang Hao’s first two trial teams. He only accumulates experience so that he can perform better during the next six teams’ trials.

He took a taxi to the Great Western Forum Arena. Under the leadership of the staff, Zhang Hao came to the head coach's office.

He is not the one who is going to try out today. The Lakers held a draft trial today. Although there was only one second round pick, they invited dozens of trial players. The team's general manager Jerry West, assistant general manager Mickey Kupchek, and the young master of the Bass family, Jess Bass, who is in charge of the scouting department, are also in the head coach's office.

The Lakers' head coach is Del Harris nicknamed Silver Fox, 58 years old. He is the best coach this season, with excellent ability and has led an NBA team to the Finals.

In addition to Jenny Buss, who is in charge of commercial operations and Lakers' big boss Jerry Buss, several people from the Lakers' real power departments have arrived!

On the one hand, Zhang Hao felt a little regretful that he could not see the hot and unrestrained mature female vice president, but at the same time he became nervous. Even though he had never thought that the Lakers would choose him, he was still nervous when he saw so many executives of a team.

The old man with white hair, no matter what the actual situation is, at least he looks kind. Del Harris smiled and said to Zhang Hao who was a little nervous: "Hello, Aix, don't be nervous, just introduce yourself."

Trial training is actually just an interview, looking for a job... From language communication, looking at personality, body, technology and other aspects, it looks at ability.

Zhang Hao quickly adjusted and replied: "My name is Zhang Hao, my English name is Aix, from China. He is currently studying in Inglewood High School. He is 18 years old. I am good at playing without the ball, mainly receiving and shooting, and can also cut into the ball to attack the basket..."

Zhang Hao simply introduced himself, did not boast about himself, but he did not dare to say anything because of his single skill. He honestly and simply said what he was good at.

There were rookies who ran to Los Angeles since yesterday. Although the Lakers only had one 37th pick, there were so many players who ran. For most candidates who were not very talented in the draft, the 37th pick was already the dream pick.

For NBA teams, every new player is very important, so except for those overseas players who are 22 years old who can automatically run for the NBA team if they like it, most of the players in the United States need to learn about it through trial training. As for the Lakers, every player who runs for trial training has to interview.

The four management personnel in charge of Zhang Hao's interview were all very satisfied with Zhang Hao's self-introduction.

Simple, direct, and not boasting like many players.

What Zhang Hao said was all his abilities. He won the high school dunk contest and had good athletic ability. Adidas Training Camp MVP, the elite team made 10 mid-range shots in a single game, with a very high shooting percentage, which means that Zhang Hao was extremely outstanding in mid-range shots and was able to perform in actual combat.

After listening to Zhang Hao's self-introduction, the logo man asked before Silver Fox: "You are currently the target of competition among universities, why should you take the risk of skipping college to participate in the NBA draft?"

Zhang Hao had long expected that all teams would ask this question, and said: "My playing style is to take action after getting a shot opportunity. The technical characteristics are single. I think my playing style is more suitable for the NBA, but there is not such a good room for growth in the NCAA."

This answer is a try-and-see answer that Zhang Hao thought about. I will try it with the Lakers and the Clippers to see what the opponent will react when they hear it. Anyway, the Lakers only have second round picks. Although the Clippers have first round picks, they are as high as the second pick, and they are not his target picks, so they can be used to try it.

I originally participated in the trial training of these two local teams to understand what to pay attention to during trial training.

Jerry West nodded and continued: "It seems that you have a clear plan for your career. I also think your shooting no longer needs to be improved through the NCAA. Playing in the NBA is more suitable for you to continue to strengthen the mid-range shooting technology, but you are still young and have a lot of time to improve your technology..."

When the logo man said these words, not only Zhang Hao looked at him in surprise, but the Lakers head coach and two other management personnel did not expect that the logo man would give Zhang Hao such a high evaluation.

There is no need to upgrade CITIC through NCAA... This evaluation is really high.

I found myself talking too much, the logo man quickly ended the paragraph and asked: "OK, we have no questions about the trial training. Now there is only one personal question from me. Can you answer it?"

Although it is unknown, Zhang Hao nodded and responded: "Of course, please speak."

The logo man showed the expression of the melon-eating crowd at this time and asked: "I remember when you participated in the dunk competition, you said that you wanted to enter the NCAA first-level league school through such a game. What made you change so quickly?"

Zhang Hao hesitated for a moment and replied: "Before I decided to participate in the NBA Draft, I was really trying to make my abilities recognized by those schools in the NCAA Division I league, and I did it too.

However, I worked hard to make them recognize me, not to join them, I just wanted them to regret why they rejected my scholarship application."

The reason for the work is to go out of town and you will not be able to come back next month on the 2nd of the next month. It takes about two weeks to go out. If you have time, write it. The updates have been released regularly during this period. If there is a reward or if there is a 50,000 yuan increase or more recommendation tickets, you need to update it. Let’s talk about it when you come back.

It is expected to be launched on February 1st, and Sanjiang has not even launched a strong promotion. It has only been 20 days since the book was released, and it has only been 140,000 words... Well, it is much more than most books on the shelves.

However, the bottom line of Sanjiang's strong promotion is not reached. I guess if the collection exceeds 10,000 yuan in the beginning or mid-month next month, I am qualified to promote Sanjiang. After the process of the recommended big, if there are too many collections, you can subscribe and updates be stable after it is put on the shelves.

Thanks to qf7777 for its 10,000 rewards, and many friends who have given me rewards. Thank you! The accumulated 60,000 words of update, plus the 20,000 words of update on the first day of the shelves, a total of 80,000 words.

After the release, it will be 4,000 words per chapter, which means 20 chapters will be accumulated on the first day. If you still want to read 2,000 words per chapter after it is released... It's okay to divide 40 chapters, but I still want to start with 4,000 words per chapter.
Chapter completed!
