On November 20, local time in the United States, the Detroit Pistons held a press conference today and officially announced to the media that the contract of Chinese player Zhou Yi has been executed until the end of the season, and his contract has become a guaranteed contract. Zhou Yi will become a restricted free agent after the end of the season.

Pistons owner Bill Davidson, general manager Joe Dumas and head coach John Custer and other senior executives attended the press conference. Zhou Yi naturally attended the press conference, which was very important to him. John Custer answered questions about Zhou Yi at the press conference. He said that he liked Zhou Yi very much, saying that Zhou Yi is a smart player and hopes to coach him all the time. But as for whether he can work together smoothly with Zhou Yi in the future, it is not up to him to decide.

"Zhou is the most suitable team development candidate right now," said Pistons owner Bill Davidson. "You need to find a player like this who can lead the team to win. He always fights every game desperately. He knows how to organize the team's offense. When the team needs him, he always stands up. He knows how to turn the Pistons into an excellent team."

"If Zhou can keep performing like this, we are of course very happy. I hope he can continue to play like this." General Manager Joe Dumas also expressed his praise for Zhou Yi. "I think he will play better, and his efforts determine his future performance. Who wouldn't like Zhou in Detroit now? He is a hero in Detroit, can score those key goals and connect the team. I really want to say that he is the leader of this team, but it is undeniable that he is not yet. However, I believe he will grow into the leader and leader of this team. But now these are not what we can control, and we can only wait and see."

"Zhou is a very talented, very hardworking, listens to the coach's words, and can execute the coach's intentions. He has not yet grown to the limit yet, right? He is still young, has a lot of potential and has a lot of room for growth. I believe he will become better. If you don't believe it, let's wait and see!" head coach John Custer also said to the media.

Pistons owner Bill Davidson also said that during the period when Zhou Yi joined the Detroit Pistons, he helped the Pistons open up some Chinese market. This was considered when the two sides signed the contract, and Zhou Yi also analyzed it for Black. Since the beginning of this season, the Pistons have also had many Chinese advertisements on the sidelines.

"Zhou and Yao and Yi are both symbols of China. The three of them are excellent athletes. Yao helped the Rockets successfully open up the Chinese market, and Yi also helped the Wizards open up the Chinese market. This is a very successful inspiration for us. When we met the Nets in the first game of the season, hundreds of millions of people watched that game. This is Zhou's influence. I believe Zhou will still play in the NBA and will also bring more help to the team, whether in terms of record or business." Bill Davidson also told reporters.

Then, the media asked some questions to Zhou Yi, the protagonist of the press conference.

"Mr. Zhou, as far as I know, your contract is $200,000 a year, which is almost the lowest salary I know. So what do you think about this?" a reporter asked harshly.

"I look forward to a successful season myself." Zhou Yi replied to the reporter's question: "I never think that I get less money, so I should be a low-level player. I hope to clarify this statement from the beginning. I think the salary I get gives me the opportunity to prove that I am better than others, and I will try to prove myself."

Zhou Yi answered this question perfectly, and also implied that he could not become an excellent player without getting a salary. Zhou Yi answered the following questions, and basically all answered very well.

Soon, the press conference ended successfully.

It happened to be 1:00 pm when the press conference ended. The Pistons players were gathering in the stadium for training. Zhou Yi wanted to train with his teammates, but was rejected by head coach John Custer. The reason for the rejection was that Zhou Yi's parents and friends finally found time to see him once, so Zhou Yi had to find more time to spend time with them. Head coach John Custer also said that after Zhou Yi's parents and friends returned, Zhou Yi's training intensity should be strengthened to make up for the training during this period. Zhou Yi happily agreed.

In desperation, Zhou Yi had to say hello to his teammates and then returned home with Black.

"Xiao Yi, we are going back to China tomorrow." Zhou Miao said kindly to Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi was shocked and frowned and asked curiously: "Why are you going back so soon? Why don't you stay for a few more days?"

"Haha, you also know that your dad is very busy. Do you know how difficult it is to take so long to fly over from China to celebrate your birthday? Besides, your mother has to go back to work, and Keer and the others have only taken a week off, so we can't do anything about it! Do you think we don't want to spend more time with you? You are the only one of you, Uncle Black, take care of you. Although we are not worried, we are also afraid that you will be lonely, so this time we will plan to celebrate your birthday." Zhou Miao replied with a smile.

Zhou Yi pursed his lips and looked at everyone. He nodded for a long time and asked helplessly: "When will you leave tomorrow?"

"Your mother and I bought the air ticket yesterday. It was a plane at 9:00 tomorrow morning." Zhou Miao leaned against the sofa and replied helplessly.

Zhou Yi nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll give it to you tomorrow."

"Haha, don't worry, Zhou Yi, we will come to see you again during the winter vacation. Maybe we will come to celebrate the Spring Festival with you!" Hong Ming said with a smile.

"Haha, Hong Ming is right! If you can't get out of here during the Spring Festival, our brothers will fly over to accompany you for the New Year." Lin Qixiao also echoed.

After hearing the two of them, Zhou Yi suddenly felt a warm current hitting his whole body. "It's enough with your words." Zhou Yi said sincerely.

"I, I will... come too." Mo Keer said hesitantly, and a blush appeared on her face.

Although Mo Ke'er's voice was small, everyone could hear it and they laughed.

Zhou Yi nodded with relief and replied to him: "Okay!"

Zhou’s father and mother nodded with relief, looked at Zhou Yi and others, and felt a lot of emotion. After chatting for a while, everyone returned to their rooms.

"Xiao Yi is also his blessing to make these friends!" Zhou's mother smiled at Zhou Miao who was lying on the bed.

"yes……"

"You said, is Keer suitable for our Xiaoyi?" Zhou's mother asked suddenly.

Zhou Miao sat up, pondered for a moment, and replied: "I think Xiaoyi and Ke'er are quite suitable. As long as they are good, we don't have to worry about this, after all, Xiaoyi has grown up."
