Chapter 368 The championship parade, an Adolf-level speech!
Late at night, Sun's special plane landed at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.
At this time, Chen Yan originally thought that few fans would come to pick him up, but the enthusiasm of Phoenix fans obviously exceeded his imagination.
"Championship!!!"
"We are the champions!"
“yeah!!!!”
"Great job Steve!"
"Chen! I love you!"
"You are our hero!"
As soon as the Suns generals showed their faces, the fans' decibels suddenly reached the peak!
"Chen, are there as many fans here as you dreamed of?" Stoudemire asked Chen Yan with a smile after seeing the enthusiastic fans.
"No, but it feels more real now." Chen Yan answered honestly.
Xiaosi couldn't stop laughing after hearing this. How can this be unreal in the real world?
Chen Yan signed autographs and took photos with the fans one by one. Although he was very tired, he was in a happy mood.
It's a way for him to share his joy with his fans.
It was already 3:30 in the morning when Chen Yan returned to the villa. Just when he fell asleep, the news about the Suns winning the championship and Chen Yan winning the FMVP were quietly occupying the headlines of major sports media at home and abroad.
"The Birth of a Genius! The Youngest FMVP in History!"
"Sweeping to win the championship is an absolute manifestation of strength!"
"The Suns are only one Chen Yan away from winning the championship!"
"Phoenix Nirvana! Phoenix Suns officially join the ranks of championship teams"
"Whispers, what did Chen Yan say to James after the game?"
"Phenomenal performance, Chen Yan helped the Suns raise the first championship banner in team history!"
"Chen Yan's first crown, stepping on the emperor's throne!"
"The biggest scam in history, the future is not James's!"
"After two consecutive years of being swept away, the little emperor may force the management of the Palace Knights"
In addition to the media, domestic fans are also immersed in excitement and joy.
"The MVP of the finals is so awesome!"
"Chen Yan, you are my god!"
"I'm still thinking about how to avoid failing in college. Chen Yan has already obtained FMVP!"
"I won the FMVP championship at the age of 20. People say James is the chosen one. I think Chen Yan is the one!"
"It's unbelievable. If someone had told me a year ago that a Chinese guard would win the NBA Finals MVP, I would have definitely suggested that he go to a brain department for a checkup!"
"I am now looking forward to how Chen Yan will bring his talent to the national team in the Olympics!"
Chen Yan's success caused a huge sensation in China!
Football is the number one sport in the world, but the number one sport in China is definitely basketball. You can tell just by looking at the basketball population base.
The football media also expressed envy when Chinese football would produce such an awesome figure. It would be the dawn of football.
This statement was met with cynicism from all walks of life. It can be said that everyone is completely disappointed with Chinese football.
Fans have different feelings towards football and basketball. Basketball has made it to the top eight in the Olympics and has long been the dominant player in Asia. However, football is often abused in Asia, let alone the world. It is not easy to reach the World Cup.
In the three games, I got a score of 9-0.
A small loss to Brazil, a draw with Türkiye, and a big win over Costa Rica have become classic jokes in the hearts of fans.
...
...
The next day, Chen Yan slept until noon before waking up.
When he woke up, his parents had already prepared lunch for him. Chen Yan was very touched. His parents would always be his support.
While eating, Chen Yan took out his mobile phone while browsing reports about himself.
There are 99 congratulatory text messages and dozens of missed calls, probably also to congratulate me.
After a while, the doorbell in the living room rang.
Bill Duffy came to announce the good news. After the news spread that Chen Yan won the championship and FMVP, many brands extended an olive branch to him.
Especially some domestic brands, they can't wait to make Chen Yan their brand spokesperson. These brands are very sophisticated. They know that if Chen Yan performs explosively in the Olympics, he will be worth more than what he is now.
After Chen Yan screened for a while, he left all the rest to Bill Duffy.
Chen Yan has a very full schedule ahead and really has no energy to deal with these business matters. One day later, he will participate in the Suns' championship parade with the whole team, and then he will fly back to China non-stop to participate in the men's basketball warm-up game.
Chen Yan has never practiced with his men's basketball teammates before, so time is very tight...
In the early morning of June 16, millions of fans suddenly appeared on the streets of Phoenix.
It's not that riots broke out in the city, but today is the day of the Suns' championship parade!
This is the first time in the history of the Suns to win the championship, so the fans also showed extraordinary enthusiasm.
Phoenix's geographical location is not comparable to that of Los Angeles and New York, but their population has always been among the top five in the United States, so it is not surprising that so many fans poured out at the same time.
The parade is scheduled to start at 10 o'clock in the morning, and the crowd will fill the streets around 7 or 8 o'clock.
But this is not an exaggeration. Some die-hard Suns fans even slept on the street all night in order to get a better viewing position.
The temperature in Phoenix in summer is usually 30-40 degrees. As the temperature gradually rises, the fans begin to become impatient. The float has not appeared for a long time, and the mobile phones in the hands of the fans have no signal. It is probably because there are too many people gathered.
The signal station collapsed...
"Chen is here!"
At this moment, a shout suddenly came from the crowd!
The fans watching suddenly became commotion.
I saw an Asian fan wearing the Suns' No. 0 jersey, wearing sunglasses, and holding the FMVP trophy walking out surrounded by the crowd.
At first glance, this fan looks somewhat similar to Chen Yan, but upon closer inspection, it is obvious that he is a fake.
This Asian fan imitated Chen Yan's tone and demeanor. The FMVP trophy in his hand was DIY made of cardboard.
Many fans knew that the Chen Yan in front of them was a fake, but they still cooperated and asked him for autographs and photos.
This is a way for fans to entertain themselves.
The tnt reporter also squeezed out from the crowd and interviewed the fan: "Wow! I have to praise you for being such a perfect imitator. If it weren't for my eyes, I almost recognized you as Chen!" The reporter said
After saying that, he laughed loudly: "Just kidding, just kidding. To be honest, you are a successful imitator. It can also be seen that you have carefully studied Chen's words and deeds. Let's talk about your journey of imitation!"
"Haha, probably since the beginning of this year, my friends have been telling me that there is a yellow man playing in the NBA who looks very similar to me. At first, I thought they were joking, until I started watching Chen's games.
I found that this was indeed the case. As I got to know Chen more deeply, I discovered that he was not only handsome but also very charming, so my journey of imitation began!"
"Will you keep imitating?"
"Of course! He's my hero!"
Just in the middle of the interview, the decibel level suddenly became louder.
This time Chen Yan is really here.
The parade consists of 4 floats, 10 convertibles and 12 trucks.
Suns management, officials, coaching staff, staff, players and players' families are included on the team.
Phoenix dispatched a large number of police officers to maintain security at the scene, and yellow cordons were set up on both sides of the passage.
Suns owner Robert Sarver and his wife appeared at the front of the line.
They smiled and waved to the fans.
Robert Sarver is a stingy boss. He sent Marion to the Trail Blazers for Chen Yan partly because of the Chinese market and partly because he would not pay luxury tax. He probably didn't expect that this operation would bring a championship to the team.
Chen Yan and his parents were on the float in the middle. In addition to his parents, Chen Yan also brought his girlfriend Swifty.
The parents of Swifty Swift and Chen Yan have met before at the competition. Chen Yan's parents are very open-minded. They will not interfere with what kind of girlfriend Chen Yan chooses or what race he chooses. As long as he likes it.
.
When the float carrying the players passed by the fans, the fans on both sides burst into loud cheers.
"We are the champions!"
"We are the champions!"
"Keep the championship in Phoenix!"
The fans are gradually going crazy while shouting, and the whole city going crazy is the perfect ending to the season!
About 10,000 Suns season ticket holders waited for the float at the parade's finish line.
This is their special treatment.
An hour and a half later, the parade arrived at its destination.
In the championship BGM, Suns players took turns to take the stage to speak.
Barea and Azubuike talked about their inspirational stories of going from undrafted to important rotations on NBA championship teams.
Grant Hill shared his experience of suffering various major and minor injuries over the years but not still fighting on the court.
After Nash came on the field, he pointed at Chen Yan and said: "I told this kid in a training session at the beginning of the season. I said he could become the best defender, an MVP-level player, and a legend in the league.
, At that time, he thought that I just said these words to coax him and encourage him, but what I want to say is that I am not a person who likes to exaggerate. These words are all from my sincerity. Everyone knows what happened after that.
The little guy became the youngest FMVP, he really did it!"
After Nash finished speaking, Chen Yan patted his chest. This was his way of showing respect.
Incited by Nash, shouts of 'mvp' rang out from the scene.
Chen Yan walked onto the stage with a smile. Now it was his turn to speak.
The host stretched out his hands to signal that the sound should be lower, otherwise Chen Yan's speech would be drowned out.
When the fans' voices gradually subsided, Chen Yan spoke: "Thank you Phoenix, the fans here can recognize me no matter where I am. You treat me like a family member, from the ball boy to the videographer."
, from the community workers to the security uncles, I thank each and every one of you. It is because of the contribution of each of you that we have the Phoenix championship trophy!"
After saying his thanks, Chen Yan began to share his own journey.
"A year ago, I was just a minor player in the NCAA. I didn't even know if I could make the team's March Madness roster. Everyone told me that yellow people are not suitable for playing basketball. Everyone wanted to
Look at my joke, but I am not knocked down by these cynicisms. What I want to say is that you must do your best to protect your dreams. Those who laugh at your dreams will definitely fail. They want to turn you into just like them.
People. I firmly believe that as long as I have a dream in my heart, I will be different. Of course, so will you."
After Chen Yan finished speaking, there was thunderous applause.
After a pause of 5 seconds, Chen Yan continued: "I like this atmosphere very much. I love the applause and screams of each of you, so I hope that I can be with you at this time next year, the year after that, and the year after that.
Gathered here, my goal is not to bring one championship trophy to Phoenix, not two, not three, not four, but five, six, seven..."
As the numbers in Chen Yan's mouth increased, the fans screamed louder and louder!
Until it boils!
Finally crazy!
When his teammates saw this scene, they couldn't help but shake their heads and sigh. With such incitement, it's not an exaggeration to say that Chen Yan is the Adolf of basketball, right?
"If he were an American, I think he could directly run for president after retiring." Dior couldn't help but said.
"Hahaha, I will definitely vote for him then." Barea joked on the sidelines.
Hearing the conversation between the two, Xiaosi couldn't help but roll his eyes at them.
A Puerto Rican and a Frenchman said they would vote for a Chinese in the US presidential election?
