001: Don’t ask, it’s cheaper if you ask(1/2)
"Yes, yes, I understand. I will be obedient."
Putting down the phone receiver, the boy walked into the bathroom and turned on the faucet of the sink.
The water kept making a "gurgling" sound. He put his hands on the sink and looked at himself in the mirror.
After a period of adaptation, Li Ang has gradually become accustomed to his current face.
Hehe, don’t say it, take a closer look, he’s actually so handsome that you feel like you’re there~
"Wipe it!" Li Ang shook his head, now was not the time to be complacent.
It's been a week. Li Ang has had this new body for a full week.
But looking at myself in the mirror now, I still feel unbelievable.
A week ago, he was a mixed martial arts athlete who had just entered the professional field.
In the third game of his career, he was hit hard on the head by an opponent's foul knee and fainted on the spot.
When he woke up again, he found himself lying in a small room, transformed into an international student who had just graduated from high school, and returned to Mi Li's house in 1997...
1997, how old is this era?
At this time, the old man was only a middle school student, and the greatest dunk king in history was really still in elementary school.
The hot fat guy who just won the MVP has just learned to walk, and the hot Slovenian genius named Qiqi is still...still a liquid!
Life in 1997 did not have convenient Internet or wifi.
The most ridiculous thing is that returning to 1997 means that Lao Ge’s new book suddenly becomes far away.
It's terrible!
It is said that Lao Ge's new book is called "NBA: Moji's Son-in-Law", which is very interesting at first glance.
Well now, we have to wait at least another twenty years to see Lao Ge’s new book and sexy pictures.
The party’s 100th birthday is now no longer available.
Thinking of this, Li Ang felt desperate.
How can we live this life without the sexy pictures of Lao Ge?
"Xiao Li, why are you staring in the mirror? Go to bed quickly. It's okay. Don't be too stressed. You have good grades and will definitely go to a good university."
At this time, at the door of the bathroom, a middle-aged man said in a soothing tone.
He is Li Ang's uncle and the owner of this room.
While Li Ang was studying in the beautiful country, he stayed with his uncle who went to the United States to work.
The phone call just now was from my father who was far away in China. Because international long-distance is still very expensive in this era, the father and son did not dare to chat for too long.
After answering, Li Ang quickly finished washing up and returned to the room.
Lying on the bed, looking at the white ceiling, Li Ang had thousands of thoughts in his mind.
Really...are you going to suddenly change your career to basketball?
The reason why Li Ang was sent to study in a foreign country by his father was because his father was a senior football fan and was eager to train his son to become a basketball player.
But because I started playing basketball too late, and because I didn’t have any talent far beyond my peers, and because education in China was almost limited to reading and sports, the risk of trial and error was too great.
So out of desperation, Li Ang was sent to the beautiful country.
There is a complete student league here to play, so you can play basketball without delaying your studies.
Even if you really can't win, you can still get a diploma and have a way out.
As a result, Li Ang spent four years of high school in the beautiful country, going back only once during the winter and summer vacations throughout the year.
A week ago, Li Ang from the beautiful country graduated from high school and was about to enter college. However, Li Ang was knocked unconscious in the ring.
Things have become what they are now.
Li Ang changed from a professional boxer to a student player. From a boxer to a ball player.
Well......
In this way, it seems that you can also box on the basketball court, and you can continue to display your professional skills~
Although he was a fighting athlete in his previous life, Li Ang is actually a basketball fan and has a basketball dream in his heart.
What man doesn't like to play ball?
It’s hard to describe the wonderful feeling of controlling the ball with both hands.
Even if a man doesn't like basketball, he will definitely like other ball games.
The football that I haven't been able to shoot for a long time, the golf ball that hit a hole in one...
There is always a ball game suitable for you.
Playing ball is something engraved in men's genes.
Now that he has a chance, Li Ang really wants to try playing basketball.
Besides, being a basketball player makes more money than boxing.
Even though the status of "professional fighter" seems quite bluffing, the salary is actually at the bottom of the sports circle.
Because the professionalization of mixed martial arts started too late, its development around the world is still in its infancy.
Take UFC, the largest league in the mixed martial arts world, as an example. An ordinary boxer who has just joined the league can only earn a salary of 10,000 knives for a game.
Under normal circumstances, if we can arrange for you to play three games a year, that is considered very productive.
Moreover, not all of this salary goes into his own pocket.
You also distribute points to your coach, nutrition team, etc. If you don’t support your team, you will be a useless professional fighter.
Therefore, what you actually get is not much money at all, which can be said to be quite hard work.
This is the salary offered by the world's largest mixed martial arts league. In his previous life, Li Ang only earned several thousand yuan a game when he played in China.
But playing basketball is different. Let alone the highest-level NBA, even if you play in the CBA, the salary is not so shabby.
He finally had this opportunity to impact his career in this life, and Li Ang naturally didn't want to waste it.
Li Ang doesn't remember the lottery numbers and doesn't know much about investing.
For now, playing basketball is his best choice.
While pursuing your dream, reaching the pinnacle of your life, marrying Bai Fumei, and displaying your professional abilities at the same time, it is simply not too satisfying.
What my uncle said just now is right, Li Ang's grades in school are still good.
Not to mention going to a prestigious university, but getting into an ordinary school is not a big problem.
But the key is...
Li Ang not only goes to college to study, but what he needs more is to get a chance to play in the NCAA.
Herein lies the problem. Although Li Ang's running and jumping abilities are acceptable, he has perfectly inherited the genes of his father, Lao Li.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! But the basketball talent is really not that good, it can be said that he is very talented.
For four years in the high school league, Li Ang was unable to perform at a dominant level among his peers, so it was impossible for any NCAA Division I college basketball team to invite him.
Li Ang used to read basketball novels, and many of the protagonists were in the NCAA or even the Development League from the beginning.
For example, in the book "I'm Really an Insider", it is clear that Wei Ge was not good at anything at the beginning, but he would appear inexplicably on an NCAA Division I team just for fun.
This is not just a wishful thinking, only an author like Lao Ge could write it.
The cruel fact is that those who can play in the NCAA Division I league are already among the best student players, and not just any loser can play there.
For someone like Li Ang who doesn't have the aura of a protagonist, his chances of even guarding the water cooler in the first-level league are slim.
So, everything in the novel is a lie.
Under normal circumstances, Li Ang would recognize the reality, give up his fantasy, study hard, and pursue his damn basketball dream.
Even if you really want to go into sports, you still have to follow your own old path, learn elbow techniques, and strive to make a name for yourself in the ring in this life.
Although he traveled through time, Li Ang's skills in his previous life are still there, and he still has the fighting ability of a professional boxer. It is not a big problem to return to the professional boxing ring.
However, Li Ang's basketball dream was not completely shattered.
Although he was a bad basketball player, he only averaged 11 points per game in four years of high school.
But at this time, Li Ang had the legendary benefits of being a time traveler.
He propped himself up and sat on the edge of the bed, focusing his attention. Soon, a system interface appeared in front of Li Ang.
"Host: Li Ang. Nationality: Chinese.
Birthday: June 30, 1979.
Height: 2.03 meters. Wingspan: 2.24 meters. Weight: 95 kg.”
The home page of the system shows Li Ang's current basic data. To be honest, the static talent is quite good, otherwise his father would not have the idea of letting his son play basketball.
Moreover, Li Ang had taken a special look and found that his hands were not small, unlike some little blacksmith from Milan.
To be continued...
