From the Mavericks' championship last summer, all the championship teams have been trying to supplement the inside to deal with the Mavericks, to the Grizzlies' championship this year, other teams are competing for high-quality point guards and forwards... Sun Ce understands one thing

.

As long as you win the championship, you will be a thorn in your opponent's side next season!

The methods are different, but other teams that are determined to compete for the championship are trying to create trouble for the defending champions next season.

Don’t worry about so much. They can’t stop what other teams are going to do. It’s more important to manage themselves.

...

A few hours later, Sun Ce and his group arrived in Edinburgh, and Lily Collins had already arranged a car to pick them up.

Sun Ce and Lily Collins both invited Robert Pera to visit, but the other party declined.

When he arrived at Lily Collins's father's villa on the outskirts of Edinburgh, Sun Ce looked at the villa in this place in England... What is the difference between it and the castle?

On the way out of the plane, Sun Ce heard from Lily Collins that her father had more than a dozen properties in the UK and more than 80 chain fast food restaurants... He won 7 Grammys, Oscars and Golden Globes,

Saturn Award mtv...and countless awards are really rich, and the key is that they can do business.

Sun Ce has checked before that Lily Collins's father's personal album sales exceeded 100 million, and the previous group album sales also exceeded 100 million... The British version of MJ's sense of déj.

As soon as the group got off the car, two little kids ran over.

The two children looked exactly the same, about seven or eight years old, and looked at Sun Ce with his neck so much that his neck was almost broken.

One of the little boys exclaimed: "Lily, your boyfriend is so tall!"

"Lucas, Jeremy, this is Noah, here is Lerina, here is Noah's father and mother..." Lily Collins first introduced the Sun Ce family to his younger brothers, and then introduced the Sun Ce family to:

"This is my two younger brothers, this is...Who are you Lucas?"

The one who spoke just now rolled her eyes: "Lily, I am your brother, you can't recognize me. Hello, I am Lucas, this is my twin brother Jeremy."

Hearing each other, the twins seemed to have a big difference in personality. The one who spoke actively at the beginning taught Lucas very lively, while the one who didn't talk was very restrained.

During the process of getting to know each other, Sun Ce's father scared both children... The main reason was Jeremy, who was very reserved. Lucas quietly asked Lily Collins if Sun Ce's father was a Chinese mafia...

The servant pushed the cart to help get his luggage. The group walked into the "castle". Lily Collins asked, "Lucas, where is Dad?"

"Dad is preparing dinner with mom."

When it comes to "mom", Lily Collins stopped talking.

Sun Ce knew why, this was Lily Collins' second stepmother, that is, the mother of the twins, and Lily Collins' own mother was also her father's second wife.

When they arrived on the second floor, Lily Collins took the servants to put their luggage on, and the twin brothers brought the other four to the restaurant. Lily Collins' father Phil Collins was carrying a piece of raw beef on the dining table.

"Oh, you're here, wait a moment, dinner is about to be ready. I specially asked the chef of a Chinese restaurant to prepare... Hotpot, yes, it's hotpot, and steak imported from Kobe, Japan, and I want to have salads.

You must try my newly learned red mushroom soup..."

With short white hair and white beard... the old man told Sun Ce's family of four that he prepared, both Chinese and Western.

Phil Collins is about 10 years older than Sun Ce's parents. He was almost 40 years old when he had a child. It is said that it was because his first wife could not have children.

As he spoke, Phil Collins suddenly reacted: "Sorry, I forgot to introduce it. I am Lily's father. Just call me Phil. I'm very happy to know you."

Sun Ce was originally worried that something bad would happen to his daughter if he abducted, but Lily Collins' father was so enthusiastic!

"Hello uncle, my name is Noah, this is my father..."

Sun Ce was about to introduce his parents, but the other party walked up and stretched out his hand to Sun Ce's father: "Mr. Sun, I heard that Lily said you like drinking very much. I wanted to meet you for a long time, but unfortunately I didn't have a chance. This time,

We can have a good drink.”

Sun Ce's father was wearing a simultaneous translation machine. When he heard the wine, he had come to a foreign country and visited such a family again. He was very restrained, but when he heard the wine, he immediately changed his personal opinion. He shook hands and said, "I'm old, my in-laws, too."

I just want to see you..."

Before he finished speaking, Sun Ce's father was stunned and looked at Sun Ce. Phil Collins, who couldn't understand what Sun Ce's father said, also looked at Sun Ce. Sun Ce was nervous when he saw his father-in-law. Then he remembered that his father was old.

Wearing a translator, Lily Collins's father didn't wear it...

...

An hour later, dinner began.

The atmosphere of the dinner was very subtle. Sun Ce's father and Lily Collins' father sat together to drink. When trying white wine, Phil Collins was very desperate. Seeing Sun Ce's father drinking red wine, Phil Collins was even more desperate.

Lily Collins gave her father her translation headphones and didn't speak for the whole time.

Zu E is going to be a translator for Sun Ce's mother and Lily Collins's stepmother, Claire Collins.

Sun Ce was haunted by Lucas and asked questions. The main question was how to grow to 192 cm.

Anyway, Sun Ce said he was 192 cm tall, so Lucas and Jeremy believed it.

From the conversation with Lucas, Sun Ce learned why Phil Collins seemed to have known their family for a long time. After rumors that he and Lily Collins were rumored, Phil Collins had investigated them.

Lily Collins' relationship with her father was eased because Phil Collins took the initiative to contact her to meet Sun Ce. Later, there was a communication slowly. This time, Lily Collins would notify his father first.

Let both sides meet... Of course, this is also the reason why Sun Ce's parents want to meet Lily Collins' parents. The cultural differences between China and the West are very different.

The reason why Lily Collins's father is so enthusiastic is mainly to make his daughter happy. This is the first time Lily Collins has met him in more than two years.

Overall, Sun Ce felt that the atmosphere was really weird for this dinner tonight.

...

After dinner, they returned to their own rooms. Sun Ce didn't know much about what was going on with Lily Collins' family, but learned from Lucas that the villa was originally empty, and Lily Collins only let his father and two.

A younger brother came, but the stepmother came too, so Lily Collins was unhappy.

But Sun Ce didn't ask much. After returning to the room to wash up, he hugged Lily Collins and talked about the next work arrangements.

Seeing that Sun Ce did not ask some questions he didn't want to answer, Lily Collins was in a much better mood. He took out his small notebook and told Sun Ce where to take his parents, Zu Ying and his two younger brothers next.

All night was fine. The next morning, two Chinese came to Lily Collins' house. After the finals, they had already brought their national teammates to Yao Ming in Scotland. Yi Jianlian, who returned to the team early after the championship parade, came.

The two came to pick Sun Ce up to a small village in southern Edinburgh, Gifford Village in Hardington, 30 kilometers south of Edinburgh, where the Chinese men's basketball team is currently training.

When Sun Ce woke up in the morning, he heard Zuege say that Phil Collins and Claire Collins had left and asked their twin sons to play with them. Sun Ce could not deal with the complex family ties between Lily Collins and ignored it.

Sun Ce felt that Lily Collins' mood was the most important thing. How she liked to deal with it? He thought it was the best, so there was no need to deliberately "help".

...

With Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian, he came to Gifford in a rented car.

After getting off the car, Sun Ce looked around and said in surprise: "It's really a rural area..."

Yao Ming said: "Many places in European countries are rural."

Sun Ce looked at the picture in front of him and his lips twitched: "Look at the future director, let's live in the countryside, why is the place we live so dilapidated? Didn't I just saw a big hotel? There is also a swimming pool there!"

"I can apply for swimming for you. I can go to the swimming pool for public expenses, and you don't have to pay for it. The hotel just now was booked by the Spanish team."

"What kind of fee is the kind of public swimming pool and a group of British big-bellied uncles to put dumplings together? Is our men's basketball team so poor? They book hotels and stay in homestays? How do I remember the sponsorship fee of our men's basketball team is more than 200 million yuan? The American men's basketball team doesn't have it.

Let's have a high sponsorship fee!" Sun Ce wanted to vomit with a lot of tears.

Yao Ming was also helpless: "You understand."

Sun Ce really understood this erroneous answer.

This situation is not as good as training in China, but I don’t know what the current management of the Blue Association is wrong. I have to leave the Chinese Olympic Committee and lead the team to the UK for training alone, and then I am reluctant to pay the money.

I don't know where all the money has been spent.

Sun Ce tried hard to comfort himself. Although it was a small village, the environment was good and the place was large. Although the European countries were not large in size, there were few people. Relatively speaking, the population density was much smaller than that in China. The villages were very large. Yao Ming

The homestay I saw in Sun Ce was made by Sun Ce alone, which was considered a preferential treatment.

Under the leadership of Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian, Sun Ce walked over a small hill and saw several houses connected together. Under Yao Ming's introduction, Sun Ce learned that everyone except him, Sun, lived here.

Seeing that Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian were treated much worse than themselves, that is, even worse, Sun Ce was finally in a much happier mood...

However, the accommodation conditions are average, but the training venue is pretty good. The Blue Association rented a new gymnasium at St. Mary's College built in March last year in the southern suburbs of Hardington, 5 kilometers away from Gifford.

The training treatment is better than that of the Spanish team. The Spanish team rented the old gymnasium at St. Mary's College. The old gymnasium was donated to local welfare institutions after the new gymnasium was completed last year and was opened to the public for free.

Under Yao Ming's leadership, Sun Ce finally figured out after visiting their activity range for the next 20 days.

This is the product of their trip to Scotland that the Blue Association is desperate for face!

Because the three national teams that have won the world championship in the new century are separated from their own country's Olympic Committee and look for local training, and the Chinese Blue Association also wants to do this. As the three major men's football basketball volleyball team

The only team in a group sports that won the world championship, the Chinese Olympic Committee can only agree.

Then their players suffer!

But what can I do? Sun Ce felt that it was the only way. Yi Jianlian had long been used to the inexplicable excitement of the people of the Lan Association. No matter how they arranged it, Yi Jianlian would not be strange.

...

After visiting the activity area, Sun Ce followed Shuangta to a separate B&B, which was much larger than his small house, with rows of bungalows and many brands.

Infirmary, instrument room, physiotherapy room, video room... The national team players need quite a complete set of things,

Sun Ce lives alone in a house, other players and team members live in a residential area, Blue Association officials, Olympic Committee entourage staff, etc. live in another area, and the three houses are located at the three foot of a hill,

Sun Ce felt that this arrangement was also quite wonderful.
