"What! Jianguo, are you kidding me?"

An angry roar came from Cheng Jianguo's cell phone.

"Old Li, why are you so angry? Calm down, calm down first," Cheng Jianguo said.

"Calm down? Calm down! I offended someone because of you, and the roster has been changed. But when I looked at the information, what kind of thing did you recommend?"

"What's wrong? Old Li? Is it because his physical condition is not good enough?" Cheng Jianguo said.

"Don't look at me carelessly! You know what I mean!"

"How dare you recommend this to me as a person who has never had professional basketball experience or background???"

"Lao Li, please don't be angry. Don't you still believe my opinion? If he was just an average player, would I go to such great lengths to recommend him to you? Listen to me, this kid is definitely the best I've ever seen.

One of the rare insiders, if trained properly in the future, he might become the next Yao Ming." Cheng Jianguo patiently explained slowly.

"The next Yao Ming? Cheng Jianguo, do you know what you are talking about? Yao Ming is so easy to play? Chinese basketball has been playing for many years, and there is only one Yao Ming. I think you have lost your mind this time!"

"Old Li, don't jump to conclusions so quickly. I, Cheng Jianguo, can guarantee that if you meet him in person, you will definitely like him more than me."

"He is 2.14 meters tall and weighs 230 pounds. He is still two months away from turning eighteen. Forgive me for my blindness. Judging from the information you gave me, I really didn't see that this person is called Tang.

What's so special about diving? His height is just right, and his weight is not bad for his age, but he's too old. You should know that all U17 players have been exposed to basketball or even professional basketball since they were young, and he is almost eighteen years old.

I have never participated in any professional leagues, and the so-called systematic training is even more out of the question. How do you expect me to think highly of such a person?" the voice on the other end of the phone said in a bad tone.

"Old Li, I know you have studied in the NBA, but why are you still so backward in your vision?" Cheng Jianguo said: "First of all, I'm sure you haven't read the information I sent you carefully, otherwise

You would never judge a person based on his height, weight and age. Furthermore, who says Tang Qian has never been exposed to basketball before? He has been the MVP of the National High School League for three consecutive years..."

"Jianguo, you have to understand that our country's high school league is not the American high school league. It is an amateur entertainment organization. How can we take it seriously?"

"Yes, our country's high school league is indeed much inferior to that of the United States, but don't forget, I, Cheng Jianguo, have also been a provincial team coach, so I can't understand the so-called 'professional' you talk about? They are all

The arrogant young master who lied about his age! How many of them will actually be able to join the national team and win glory for the country in the future? You are still here picking things for me! This Tang Qian is a real boss of his age.

, I, Cheng Jianguo, dare to bet that most of your so-called U17 players are definitely older than Tang Qian, and they are much older. Do you dare to say that what I said is wrong?" Cheng Jianguo saw that the other party was picky.

, I felt uncomfortable and immediately refuted loudly.

"Oh, Jianguo, you are right, but if you bring in such an 'amateur' player, I'm afraid that other people will be dissatisfied and wear small shoes and a hat for him!" Seeing Cheng Jianguo getting angry, the voice on the other end of the phone also shouted.

Relaxed.

"What are you afraid of!" Cheng Jianguo thought of Tang Qianqian's performance in the gymnasium today and said confidently: "Nothing can be made without polishing it. If he doesn't have this ability to withstand pressure, this is his upper limit. Then even if I don't see it, Cheng Jianguo will

Wandered away."

"Well, since you insist so much, I will grant your wish. I just hope that this Tang Qian is really as good as you said."

"Don't worry, when will your training camp start?" Cheng Jianguo asked.

"The day after tomorrow, I will train intensively for a week, and then I will go to Kanas, Lithuania to participate in the main competition."

"Okay, I will make it clear to Tang Qian, and then I will ask you to take care of me."

"Easy to say, easy to say."

After hanging up the phone, a tall middle-aged man sat at the desk. He frowned, as if he remembered something, and picked up the fax information Cheng Jianguo sent him again...

The next day, Tang Qian boarded a plane to Beijing and rushed to the training base of the U17 youth team without stopping.

This was Tang Qian's first time in the capital, whether it was in his previous life or this life.

But Tang Qian was not in the mood for sightseeing and wandering, because it was already late when he arrived in Beijing and the journey was tiring. In order to train early tomorrow morning, he had to recharge his batteries and stay in top condition at all times.

He always remembered the words Cheng Jianguo gave him before leaving.

"Xiao Tang, this opportunity is very rare. If you can perform well, you may become famous in one battle. Although the U17 World Youth Championship is not a big competition, no matter how low the standard is, it is still a world-wide competition. If you can

If you grasp it well, you can also initially show your worth, which will undoubtedly have benefits for you to enter the professional basketball world in the future."

In the evening, Tang Qian randomly found a hotel and lay on the bed. He looked at the ceiling silently and said:

"U17? I must take advantage of it!"

After getting up in the morning, Tang Qian packed up and washed himself, then packed his luggage and got on the bus to the training base.

The traffic in the capital was not congested today, so Tang Qian arrived at the gate of the training base in just forty-five minutes.

After asking the doorman to check his ID card, Tang Qian walked in with his luggage.

"Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa!"

As soon as he approached the gymnasium, Tang Qian heard the sound of a lot of basketballs being slapped. Since the main door of the gymnasium was not closed, Tang Qian walked in directly.

Although it has not yet reached the prescribed gathering time, nearly half of the training team members have arrived at the gym early. Judging from the way they are talking and laughing, they must have known each other before or met in person.

"Newcomer? We meet each other. Which local team are we on?" asked a boy with a Northeastern accent.

"I'm not from the provincial team." Tang Qian replied.

"Oh? Which sports school is that from?" the Northeastern boy continued to ask.

"I went to an ordinary high school." Tang Qian answered truthfully.

"Ordinary high school?" The Northeastern man was stunned, and then said: "Then you are from the second or third team of the CBA?"

"No."

The Northeastern man scratched his head and said, "Then you were born into a basketball family?"

He asked this, which can be regarded as reasonable. People like Yao Ming and Guo Ailun were born in basketball families and were born with relatively good genes.

Tang Qian still shook his head.

This is not the case, and that is not the case. The Northeastern man was confused by Tang Qian's identity. He looked at Tang Qian again and muttered in his heart: This shouldn't be the case. With this height and body, he is definitely a basketball player. How is that possible?

Nothing? Could it be that he was joking with me?

"Ji Wei, don't ask, this person must be the 'amateur' player who beats Li Wei."

"It's him?"

The Northeastern man's tone suddenly became cold, and he stopped talking to Tang Qian.

Sensing the atmosphere of the crowd, Tang Qian didn't care, because he knew that this was the "professional orientation" of domestic basketball. As a person who had never even played in Cuba, he would naturally not be ignored by these "professionals" who were "established and established".

"Sheng" is taken into consideration.

But it doesn't matter, Tang Qian knows best what kind of strength he has.

There is no need to engage in verbal quarrels with this group of people.

After putting down his luggage and backpack, Tang Qian began to warm up alone, but his warm-up method was quickly ridiculed and ridiculed by this group of "students".

"As expected, he is a half-baked person who uses the back door. He doesn't even know how to do a basic warm-up. I really don't know why Coach Li brought him here."

"Forget it, I guess he's a young man from somewhere. He wants to come to the U17 youth team to experience the atmosphere."

"It makes sense. One look at his posture, and you can tell that he is definitely an amateur."

"Hehe, but there are advantages to replacing it with a straw bag."

"Benefits? What benefits?"

"Think about it, if we get a person like this, Coach Li will definitely let him guard the water cooler. In this way, won't our playing time increase?"

"Hey, that's good. If Li Wei is replaced, he will definitely bear the brunt of reducing my playing time. After all, my position overlaps with Li Wei's position."

Tang Qian turned a deaf ear to these "rumours", as if he didn't see them, and just continued to warm up on his own.

After a while, several more training team members came, and after chatting with those who had come earlier, they also walked aside and ignored Tang Qian, as if there was no such person in the entire gymnasium.

The atmosphere is quite solemn.

However, as the person involved, Tang Qian had no intention of expressing his opinion and continued to warm up slowly.

Ten minutes later, a figure entered and attracted everyone's attention.

This person is the head coach of the U17 National Youth Team this time, Li Qiuping.

Speaking of Li Qiuping, if you don’t usually pay attention to domestic basketball, you may be unfamiliar with him. However, for those who usually pay attention to domestic basketball, when it comes to this person, he is still famous and well-known. Some of his own resume cannot be ignored.

Talk, just because he has a sharp eye and refined Yao Ming, he has laid a solid foundation for Chinese basketball in the next ten years. This achievement alone is enough to be respected. What's more, he also went to the NBA for a period of training last year.

His time, vision and coaching ability can be said to be first-rate among famous domestic coaches.

"Okay, everyone, stop for a moment and come and gather."

After Li Qiuping gave the order, everyone put down the basketball in their hands, and then neatly came over to line up one by one.

Leaving a good impression on the head coach is something that every player should understand very well. After all, in the U17, the middle-aged man in front of him has absolute control.

Be it the main player or the substitute, the rotation or the water dispenser, it all depends on his "Dictatorship of the Sacred Heart".

"Hello everyone, I am the head coach and team leader of the U17 National Youth Team. In the next week, I will train you well so that you can develop a tacit understanding and improve your strength before going to Lithuania." Li Qiuping said concisely and concisely, without any redundancy.

nonsense, and then said: "Everyone briefly introduce themselves, starting from the right."

"Hello everyone, I am Zhao Jiwei. I am 16 years old. I am from Liaoning. I am 1.85 meters tall and weigh 70 kilograms. My main position is point guard." The Northeastern boy who started talking to Tang Qian took a step forward and said loudly.
