Five people's hearts were trembling with one name at the same time. For young basketball players, Michael Jordan is the eternal god of basketball.
"Are you calling me?" Yang Mo pointed at himself and asked with some confusion.
"Are there any other Chinese among you?" Michael Jordan asked with a smile.
"Go quickly, we are waiting for your good news." Westbrook quickly gave Yang Mo a push. They also knew that the probability of Yang Mo being selected was very small. Now that Michael Jordan is willing to chat with him, it means that the Bobcats may want to
He was chosen. Of course they all hoped that Yang Mo would be chosen, so they all pushed him forward.
These brothers had good intentions, and Yang Mo knew it. But he had already reached a secret agreement with Miami. If Michael Jordan interfered, wouldn't it be a big deal? At that moment, he was a little confused.
If you go, you may miss something important. If you don't go, you won't give face to the God of Basketball.
Yang Mo weighed it up, and finally gritted his teeth and walked up. He thought to himself that if Michael Jordan asked himself, he would tell the worst, and he would definitely not choose him.
Michael took Yang Mo to the cafe outside the arena and sat down. Then he took the initiative and asked: "Do you need a translator? There happens to be a Chinese girl in our player management department."
"No need." Yang Mo waved his hand. Ever since he took on Shaquille O'Neal's task, his English speaking level has become an authentic American level.
"I just watched you play, and I think you are very good. Excuse me, would you like to try out with our team?" Michael Jordan asked with a smile, maintaining his utmost kindness.
"I don't want to." Yang Mo shook his head decisively.
"Huh?" Michael Jordan frowned. He didn't expect that some players would reject his proposal. Doesn't this kid know who I am?
Seeing Michael Jordan frowning, Yang Mo quickly came up with a random reason: "I think my level may not be up to NBA standards, so I don't want to waste money and time."
"No, no, no." Michael Jordan waved his hand quickly and said: "You should be confident, man. Don't care what others say about you. I think you are one of the ten best players in this training camp. If you are willing,
Our Charlotte Bobcat doors are always open for you."
Michael Jordan's words are equivalent to giving Yang Mo a promise. If it were three days ago, Yang Mo would have cheered and shouted long live. But now, he has received a promise from Pat Riley, and even the contract has been opened.
.
He was very happy to be recognized by the God of Basketball, but he was more sorry because he had to live up to the God of Basketball, who had already reached an agreement with Pat Riley.
"Thank you very much." Yang Mo said apologetically: "But... I still don't plan to go to Charlotte for a trial training. The day after tomorrow is the draft, and running back and forth will make me very tired."
If another rookie talked to Michael Jordan like this, Michael Jordan would definitely throw coffee in his face. What the hell, I, the god of basketball, didn’t show off to you, so why are you dragging me in front of me?
However, Michael Jordan liked Yang Mo very much. He did not hesitate to retreat, and he retreated without any bottom line: "Well, since you don't want to go to Charlotte, that's okay. I can understand.
Your family and growing up environment?”
Hmm? Understand the family? Growing environment?
When Yang Mo heard this, he felt something was wrong. Could it be that Michael Jordan really chose me? He actually learned about my family background. Is this considered a concern for the new employee?
Although he was surprised, but out of politeness, Yang Mo still answered truthfully: "When I was ten years old, I lost my parents, and then, I am now alone."
Yang Mo spoke calmly, briefly describing his own experience, without any intention of gaining sympathy. In fact, Yang Mo did not need sympathy. When he was ten years old, he knew that he could only rely on himself for everything and live in the presence of others.
People in sympathy are more pitiable than beggars.
Yang Mo said it calmly, but Michael Jordan's heart was churning after hearing this: No wonder this kid is so strong on the court. It turns out that he has been independent since he was a child. His strong competitive spirit must be caused by his family environment. He must choose. He can
If he is not knocked down by life, then nothing can knock him down on the court.
Yang Mo didn't know that his simple words could make Michael Jordan's determination stronger.
"I'm sorry for mentioning your sadness."
"It's nothing, it's all over." Yang Mo shook his head. He didn't think this was a sad thing. Only people who are not strong enough will live in the sad past.
Michael Jordan was very satisfied with Yang Mo's calmness. He admired this kind of tough guy, not the kind of blaming coward. Then he asked: "Do you have any bad habits?"
Yang Mo thought about it carefully and realized that he really didn't have any bad habits. He had lived like a Puritan for the past twenty years. After thinking for a while, he asked, "Does it count if I don't like washing my face?"
Phew!
After hearing this, Michael Jordan laughed out loud and said: "You are so cute. Of course this does not count. I mean, do you have a habit of smoking marijuana or something like that?"
"No." Yang Mo shook his head and said, "It is illegal for China to do these things."
"Oh, then I'm relieved." Michael Jordan nodded and breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that a drug addict would appear in the locker room, which would be a huge harm to the team.
Jordan was silent for a while and finally asked a professional question: "Have you played power forward since you were a child?"
"I have not received professional training since I was a child. I am quite tall among Chinese people, so since I was a child, every time I played, my friends would ask me to play center or power forward." Yang Mo is very simple.
He said, he was afraid that if he said too much, Michael Jordan would really take a liking to him.
"Have you never received professional training?" Michael Jordan quickly asked after hearing this.
"Well, yes." Yang Mo nodded. He didn't understand what Michael Jordan meant. He thought that saying that he had not received professional training would make Michael Jordan lower his opinion of him and thus not affect Miami's selection of him, so he added
One sentence: "I practice all by myself."
Yang Mo thought that by saying this, Michael Jordan would lower his attention. Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Michael Jordan became even more fanatical: Uncut jade! He has never received any training and can perform like this. This is a real genius. If you accept
How amazing will professional training be in the future?
"Okay, needless to say." Michael Jordan slammed the table excitedly, scaring Yang Mo into thinking that he was going to leave directly. Unexpectedly, after slapping the table, he grabbed Yang Mo's shoulders tightly with both hands, excitedly
Said: "You are the player we need, I will definitely choose you."
ah?
When Yang Mo heard this, he was completely dumbfounded. He thought to himself: Why? I've already done this to myself, and you still choose me. Are you sick?
"Are you sure you want to choose me?" Yang Mo asked confused.
"OK." Michael Jordan nodded heavily and said proudly: "I want to use you to prove to the world that my vision, Michael Jordan, is accurate, and all the previous mistakes were just mistakes."
Yang Mo was very grateful that Michael Jordan thought so highly of himself. But... what should Pat Riley say?
At this moment, Michael Jordan's assistant walked in with a tall Chinese woman.
As soon as the woman came in, Jordan waved to her excitedly and said, "Lu, come here. This is your compatriot. You can work together in the future."
Yang Mo followed the sound and found out that the woman Jordan called 'Lu' had black hair and extremely delicate facial features. She had a gentle feeling like a Jiangnan water town. But her figure was extremely domineering, with the front and back curved, a typical American girl's figure, everywhere.
It exudes an aura of wild temptation. The two extremes are blended in the same body, and there is no sense of incompatibility at all. Yang Mo couldn't help but whisper in his heart: "This is the ultimate combination of Chinese and Western!"
