Chapter 2 My name is Chen Xiao, I really love basketball!(1/2)
My name is Chen Xiao, male, 18 years old, from a county-level city in Yan City, Suzhou Province, China, rural area in Feng City.
As a child from rural China, it is very, very difficult to study in the United States.
Most of the peers in my village went directly to the factory after graduating from high school, and even many girls in the same village went directly to the factory as factory girls after graduating from junior high school.
Students like me who were admitted to American universities in advance without taking the college entrance examination can be called a miracle in the village.
It is precisely because of this that both my family and the village have high expectations for me.
Although the Marquette University I studied is not a top school like Harvard and Yale, it is also the top 100 in the United States. Especially the bioengineering major I studied is the ace major of Marquette University, and it can be ranked in the top 50 in the United States.
It is said that the 21st century is a century of biology. In everyone's opinion, I am a promising person who studies bioengineering at a world-renowned bioengineering school.
Even the sister Chaoyue, who was less than three years old in the village, looked at me with tears in her eyes when she saw me off, as if she was saying to me: "Brother Xiao, you must come back in the future!"
If you are rich and noble, you will never forget each other. If you stay in America and don’t come back to support us, I will definitely be a factory girl when I grow up.
I don’t want to be like other brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts in the village, and I can only enter the factory in the future!
Although Chaoyue sister is less than three years old, I always think this little girl is particularly precocious.
Of course, maybe these are my brains.
In short, as the first college student from the famous idiot village in Fengcheng City, I have a very heavy burden on me.
So from the moment I boarded the plane and stepped out of the country, I secretly swore that after I finished studying in the United States, I would definitely return to my motherland, return to the village, and use my own abilities to change the appearance and destiny of the village.
I am an orphan. My parents went out to work when I was very young and never came back. I heard from the people in the village that they went to sea secretly and the ship was sunk.
That was the sadness of the dream-seekers along the coast of that era.
Fortunately, when my parents didn’t have it, I didn’t know how to be sad.
When I understand sadness, the people in the village will make me lose my sadness.
It can be said that I grew up eating the hundreds of food in the village.
Therefore, whether it is uncles and brothers or villagers like Chaoyue sister, they are relatives I cherish very much.
"Xiao, your dad said that when he comes back, our village will be completely different, but he never comes back..."
"You must come back well this time."
"Uncle, don't worry, I went out honestly, I will definitely come back honestly!"
As the only hope of the idiot village, I have a lot of expectations and fantasies about my future when I stepped abroad.
However, no matter how I fantasize, I never thought I would appear on the basketball court.
In order to learn, to change my destiny and change the fate of the village, I have been studying hard since I was a child, and I have almost never participated in other sports except running.
After all, I have to run home after school and go back to school every day. I have to run back to school every day. I am still very good at running.
Of course, although I have never played basketball, football, or sports, my physical fitness is still good. It is normal to be from a rural background.
But even so, I really would never have thought that when I stepped into the United States, I was directly hit by a so-called basketball player growth system.
I really don’t know what this system is, and I really don’t know why this thing hit me, a person who doesn’t know anything about basketball!
Could this so-called basketball player growth system have to choose someone who can’t do basketball?
If this is true, am I too lucky or too unfortunate?
Anyway, no matter what, when I got this system, all the futures I imagined became different.
I can really ignore this system and continue to be a future bioengineer.
Bioengineers in the 21st century can definitely make a lot of money!
Biology, chemistry, materials, environment!
Biochemical ring materials, biological first!
This is the most future, richest and most bright major in the 21st century, as the brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts and teachers who work outside the village!
This major can make me develop and our village develop!
A mere basketball, want me to change my career?
No way!
At most, I will wait for me to become more developed and play basketball in my spare time!
Until I came to Milwaukee the next day and when I found the NBA player salary newspaper, I saw the pile of numbers that seemed to be flashing with golden and green light.
In that moment, I, an 18-year-old boy who has never left the country, felt that my dreams and future were all distorted...
wrong!
Me, Chen Xiao, I either like the green and golden shiny, I simply like basketball!
I am an old Jordan fan for 18 years!
Me, Chen Xiao, really love basketball!
In this way, Chen Xiao appeared in the training hall of Marquette University, picked up the basketball in his hand, and slapped the basketball in his hand awkwardly under Ron Howard's eyes that could not be darker.
...
...
"So Tim, this kid doesn't even know how to basketball at all, and then he even sneaked into our team?!"
As the person in charge of recruiting this time, Tim Buckley felt his face burning when listening to the head coach of the team next to him.
Be careless!
This time he really didn't expect someone to attack him as an honest man without talking about "Qiude".
Who would have thought that a person who knows nothing would participate in the recruitment of the NCAA team?
He was so blinded by this new victory!
Thinking of this, Tim Buckley's expression on his face was a little ashamed.
"Tom, are we going to send him out?"
"No, maybe Tim found a genius like Olajuwon or Tim Duncan for us?"
The expression on Tim Buckley's face became even more ashamed.
Everyone knows that Olajuwon and Duncan both were 15 years old and officially came into contact with the system's basketball training, and then became a superstar with their own ball business and talent. Will this Chinese boy be the next Duncan or Olajuwon?
How is that possible!
Tom was just comforting his mistake.
Tom Crien ignored Tim Buckley's current shame, and after being surprised, there was an interesting expression on his face.
"Interesting boy."
Of course, Tom Crien only paid attention to Chen Xiao for a while. As the team's head coach, he certainly had to inspect all the players.
Chen Xiao's stay or stay will not determine the team's performance, nor will he decide his stay or stay next season.
If a person who knows nothing is willing to come here, it means that he really loves basketball.
The gates of basketball are originally open to everyone who loves it.
He has no right to close the dream of a basketball lover, whether he is likely to be the next Duncan or Olajuwon.
Talent and ability are not important, what is important is love!
What defense, what iron blood?
When you have love, you have everything!
This is the Golden Eagle Spirit of Marquette University!
He may have the Golden Eagle spirit that belongs to this team.
After Tom Crean turned his eyes away from Chen Xiao, he began to investigate the others.
Except for not having to investigate, Ron Howard, who is teaching Chen Xiao to dribble, all of the newly recruited Marquette University players are conducting various tests and training under the guidance of the team's trainers.
Marquette University is still in the registration stage and has not officially started school. It will take until May.
So the team has no official players now.
During this period when the official player is away, this is a chance for new players to make a comeback!
Who doesn’t want to leave a good impression on the head coach?
Others want to make a name for themselves, Ron Howard wants to make a name for themselves even more.
His personal abilities are now invincible in this team without a main player.
But basketball games are not just about personal abilities, but also about teamwork and coaches. He has too many things to show in front of Tom Crien.
But!
This guy!
Seeing Chen Xiao's awkward dribbling posture, Ron Howard's face became increasingly ugly.
To be continued...
