Chapter 15: rise to fame

Lian Dao has never seen DeRozan speak like this before. He blushed a little after being praised by DeRozan, so he made an excuse to go to the bathroom, and when he came back, he settled the bill. It was just the money for a few cups of coffee. Lian Dao is not bad Money, on the contrary, he is very rich. If the money for a few cups of coffee can pay a media reporter, it is still worth it.

Sure enough, Harland showed a grateful expression when he saw Lian Dao settled the bill. He had just graduated and started working, and he had no income yet. Life has always been considered a cash-strapped. Before, it was to obtain first-hand news materials, so I didn't care so much. Now, of course, you can save a little if you can.

After the interview, Lian Dao and DeRozan bid farewell to Harland and left.

Harland also left the cafe in a hurry and went to the hotel. He wanted to make today's manuscript based on the game video and his own interview.

Looking back at the video again, Lian Dao's 100-step piercing three-pointer, precise defense, cool dribbling, and pass without looking at people still make Harland feel that Lian Dao can handle the game with ease.

This made Harland not only lament that Lian Dao is a rare treasure boy. Should be known by more people.

So Harland directly and quickly typed on the computer: "Reggie of Southern California, Mr. Key who led the Trojans to reverse the game".

He spent an hour writing the manuscript, and then selected a few photos from the photos he took and pasted them in: the picture of Lian Dao shooting a three-pointer with the logo, the ghost passing the ball, and the defender's attack. Draw three points.

I have to say that the photos taken by Harland are of very good quality and can always capture the best moments. Moreover, the key is to be handsome. What do fans like, isn't it that they play well and are handsome? Such basketball players are more marketable!

Just like Yang Ming in the CBA, the female fans all flew there to watch him play. Is that for watching the football? She has the body of a glutton.

After finishing the work, send it directly to the editor-in-chief's mailbox.

Jim, the editor-in-chief of the basketball section of "Sports Illustrated", looked at the manuscript sent by Harland, smoking a cigarette, with a tangled face, the manuscript was well written, and everyone's eyes were on Blake Griffin, James · Harden, Hashim Thabeet, and Stephen Curry and other hot rookies.

Jim didn't know if Lian Dao would get the fans' attention.

After about ten minutes, Jim pressed the cigarette firmly in the ashtray. He made a decision and called Harland.

"Boy, your report is very good. I have already approved it for you and made it the cover of the basketball section. I hope that kid will not disappoint me."



At this time, Lian Dao was teaching DeRozan math in the dormitory. Lian Dao told him three times about a problem, but looking at his confused eyes, Lian Dao silently shed tears in his heart. He understood that what he said before was all Play the piano to the cow.

Negroes are really good at math--nothing at all. It seems that not only black people in the United States, but also many white people are not good at mathematics. Some families in the United States have a messy calculation of income and expenditure accounts.

They feel that mathematics is passed down by God to punish them, so they feel like they are looking at God when they look at Asians who are good at mathematics. They can understand such a complicated thing. Wow, they are better than God.

The most frustrating thing for Lian Dao was that DeRozan also took mathematics as an elective with a face of confidence. It can be seen that he has no clue about his ability.

Lian Dao felt that tutoring DeRozan was more tiring than suicide training.

Therefore, Lian Dao stopped explaining the principles to him, and directly told him what to do and how to write when encountering such a problem.

This is the wealth left to Lian Dao under the domestic exam-oriented education: you can still do the right questions even if you don’t know it.

Exam-oriented education YYDS.

Lian Dao, who worked so hard to make up lessons for DeRozan, didn't know that today's interview had been arranged as the front page headline by the editor-in-chief of the basketball section of "Sports Illustrated".

In this era where smart phones are not yet popular, most of the sports information people get depends on magazine media reports such as "Sports Illustrated" and ESPN.

The influence of "Sports Illustrated" in the sports world has always been among the top in the United States. And the influence he can bring to Lian Dao is also great.

At least after logging out, Lian Dao will no longer be as unknown as before.

The man wearing glasses who was in the middle of the auditorium before the game ended, found the management staff through the relationship and got the video of the game. Then he returned to the hotel excitedly, packed and sent the scouting report he made and the video of tonight's game to Grizzlies general manager Chris Wallace.

"Hey, Chris, I saw a talented player today, I think he is more suitable for the Grizzlies than Thabeet." The man wearing glasses is the Grizzlies scout Jason, he was amazed by Lian Dao's performance today . He was originally investigating DeRozan, but he didn't expect to find a good seed like Lian Dao.

So he couldn't wait to call the team manager.

"Jason, although DeMarre Carroll is excellent, he's still not better than Thabeet. Are you sick and confused?" Chris Wallace, the general manager of the Grizzlies, was puzzled when he received the call , He hasn't read the information that Jason sent him.

"Hey, buddy, who told you about Carroll? I'm talking about the No. 1 player from USC. His Chinese name is Lian Dao, and his English name is Sickle. Did you not see the message I sent you?" material?"

"Oh, sorry, I haven't come in time yet, I hope the player information you sent is as good as you said, otherwise, buddy, you just wait to deduct the bonus."

"Don't worry buddy, you're going to love that little guy."

"Okay, let me read the information you sent me first, that's it"

Chris hung up the phone. Although he didn't really believe it, but as a team manager's professional ethics, he still found and opened the information Jason sent him.

"Lian rice

Height: 204cm

Armspan: about 223cm"

"Oh, what a talented young man with good static talent."

When Chris saw Lian Dao's static talent investigated by Jason, he also became interested in it, and then continued to look down.

"Strengths: very good three-pointers, UU Reading defense, as well as ball control and passing, high ball quotient, excellent vision and sense of space, excellent strength confrontation.

Disadvantages: slow moving speed, needs to be strengthened, poor mid-range special scoring ability, ball-handling breakthrough ability needs to be strengthened, and physical fitness needs to be strengthened.

The cultivation potential is very large. There is currently no way to give a template. Please see the game video for details. "

Chris clicked on the game video.

"Oh, fuck, this kid is like a bamboo pole. Jason actually said that he has excellent strength and confrontation. Did he grow his eyes on his butt? Oh, this three-pointer is interesting, huh? How did he get so thin and still fit?" With so much power..."

Since Chris clicked on the video, his mouth has never stopped, from the previous doubts to the last real fragrance.

After watching the video, Chris stroked the stubble around his mouth and fell into deep thought. He could see Lian Dao's talent from the video, just like what Jason said was a good seedling. But he also has his own worries, and the vulnerable constitution of the yellow race is also what he worries about.

Chris worried that Lian Dao would not be able to adapt to the fierce confrontation of the NBA after entering the NBA. This is his second season as the general manager of the Grizzlies. The ability that Lian Dao has shown in one game is not worth the first-round pick. If possible, the second-round pick is the most suitable.

So he sent a message to Jason, asking him to continue to pay attention to Lian Dao.

Chris then shook his head with a smile. It's too early to say these things. This season has just started, and the Grizzlies don't know where they can go this season. What if they enter the playoffs?

It has to be said that after this idea came up, Chris didn't believe it.

Gasol was traded to the Lakers last season, and Marc Gasol has just entered the team. It is unlikely that he will enter the playoffs.
