After that, Lian Dao also returned to Los Angeles.
When I went to New York, I was alone, but when I came back, I was two people.
Lian Dao and his junior sister Guo Yuwei.
Lian Dao also moved out of the University of Southern California and returned to Atherton, a wealthy area in South Bay.
This is the house Lian Dao's parents bought after they moved here, and now the price has risen to eight figures.
1021 square meters, single-family building, garden swimming pool, indoor and outdoor basketball courts, and gymnasium.
Before, my parents returned to China, and after they went to college, they became a little far apart. One was in Los Angeles and the other was in San Francisco.
Atherton is located near Silicon Valley, so most of the people who can buy houses here belong to the new Internet rich.
Rich people living in Atherton include: Microsoft co-founder Allen, HP CEO Whitman and Google Chairman Schmidt all live here.
There are also many mysterious Asian billionaires living here.
Therefore, both the security environment and the living environment here are at the top level in California.
This time, it was also because of the little senior sister that Lian Dao hired a housekeeping company to re-clean the villa.
Guo Yuwei also looked for connections and hired two reliable Asian nannies and two bodyguards.
Otherwise, it would be really empty for two people to live in such a big house. The key is that cleaning is also a problem when two people live there.
Once the accommodation problem is solved, it’s time to officially enter training!
Next, Lian Dao also found Chris Brickley as his personal trainer.
Chris Brickley will be JR Smith's personal trainer in the future, and was introduced to James by him. James also affirmed Chris Brickley's ability.
At this time, Chris Brickley was far less famous than Future, and certainly not as experienced as Future.
But now Lian Dao does not need an experienced trainer, Lian Dao can make a training plan himself.
A large part of the reason why Chris Brickley was hired was because the authorities were obsessed with it.
Lian Dao knows the direction of his current training, but there may be omissions in formulating the training plan.
One person's plan is far less detailed than one drawn up by a professional.
In fact, Lian Dao's goal is to improve his confrontation ability, inside footwork and mid-range shooting.
Improving his confrontation ability is to adapt to the NBA, and his inside steps and mid-range shooting are to enrich his scoring methods.
To this end, Lian Dao worked out a detailed training plan with him through constant discussions.
…
Lian Dao, who returned to Los Angeles, learned that DeMar still signed an agent, so he recommended Bill Duffy to him.
Demar knew that Lian Dao was signed by an outsider, so he was not signed by the same agent as Lian Dao.
So, I accepted Lian Dao's recommendation and signed under Bill Duffy's banner.
Aaron Goodwin: Who am I and where am I?
Bill Duffy also showed his strong business ability and took advantage of DeMar's popularity to win two good endorsement deals for DeMar.
One is the endorsement of a chocolate brand, and the other is American milk.
Two endorsement deals also bulged DeMar's wallet.
It can be regarded as solving Demar's urgent need.
Lian Dao was not in a hurry to accept endorsements. Guo Yuwei also found several good endorsements for Lian Dao, but Lian Dao only chose one of them, Gucci i sunglasses.
The others all refused, and Guo Yuwei kept rolling her eyes when faced with Lian Dao, who didn't even want any money.
Among these contracts, only Guccii has the shortest contract period.
The two-year endorsement contract worth US$2.2 million was mainly due to the fact that Lian Dao had previously attended a press conference wearing Gucci i sunglasses.
The sales of the two sunglasses worn by Lian Dao have soared in the United States and China.
Therefore, Gucci i also thought of cooperating with Lian Dao this time.
It took three days to shoot the commercial.
Next, Lian Dao and Demar entered into a crazy training time.
It is worth mentioning that originally, only Lian Dao and DeMar used the gymnasium at the University of Southern California for training.
But later, Gibson also joined the training, and later Vucevic also chose to join their training team.
The most important thing is that Chris Brickley no longer became Lian Dao's personal trainer, he directly became the team's trainer. For this reason, Lian Dao also increased Chris Brickley's salary.
And later, James Harden got the news from somewhere that "Lian Dao organized a training camp."
So this guy joined in with a pair of innocent eyes.
The key is, there are free trainers to use!
Lian Dao didn't refuse this, but Chris Brickley couldn't stand it. Good guy, originally he only had to serve one person, but now he has become a team.
To this end, Lian Dao also increased his investment and hired several trainers to assist.
However, a problem arose. The training arena in Southern California was no longer suitable as a training venue.
Mainly, the University of Southern California also uses it.
So Lian Dao rented a training venue nearby. This venue comes with a gym and accommodation, which is pretty good.
Then, unexpectedly, Clay Thompson was also attracted.
Good guy, since so many people have already come, let’s just call a few more people to form two camps.
Then Lian Dao also asked James Harden to call his teammate Jeff Ayers. Jeff Ayers is also participating in the draft this year. It can be said that the Arizona Sun Devils will basically have no chance next season without these two people.
.
Klay Thompson also called teammate Aron Baynes over.
The entire training team now includes Lian Dao, DeMar, Gibson, Vucevic, James Harden, Klay Thompson, Jeff Ayers, and Aron Baynes.
There are only two people left before the red-blue full-court confrontation.
Unexpectedly, Gibson actually called Nick Young. Now the Washington Wizards have ended the regular season. They have 20 wins and 62 losses this season, third from the bottom in the league, and naturally they will miss the playoffs.
And when he heard that Lian Dao and the others had organized a training camp, this guy was also full of curiosity and rushed over from Washington.
Unexpectedly, the arrival of the last person surprised Lian Dao the most: Danny Green.
This guy also heard in the industry that Lian Dao had organized a training camp, so he came here after inquiring.
Lian Dao also welcomed this.
In this way, during daily training, the red and blue camps were gradually formed.
Although Chris Brickley is young, he is very good professionally. Based on the characteristics of each player, he worked with the assistant trainer to develop a corresponding training plan.
Lian Dao's trainer team has also taken a prototype. The addition of trainers with expertise in technology, nutrition, physical therapy, etc. has also made Lian Dao's trainer team gradually become more professional.
Moreover, the combination of training and actual combat also allows many people to immediately know their own shortcomings and the extent of their progress.
Especially the addition of Nick Young has made these talents who will enter the NBA in the future and those who are about to enter the NBA realize the gap in strength between themselves and NBA players.
Of course, during this period, Nick Young was also severely hit by these geniuses.
James Harden, DeMar, Gibson, Vucevic, Klay Thompson, Danny Green, Lian Dao, etc., they all taught Nick Young lessons in different ways.
This makes him dare not underestimate this training camp!
In a word, this training team is recognized by everyone.
But Lian Dao also knew that this training camp was really expensive.
