Slam Dunk: My Study Abroad Career in Northern Hunan

Chapter 109 Invitation!
After the practice match between Xiangbei and Lingnan high schools, Jinguji Budo bid farewell to the players and the coach in a hurry.

There is no other reason, the main reason is that Wu Dao needs to act as Zhang Yongjun's translator and take Zhang Yongjun to find his companions.

At noon, the sun was shining directly, and the temperature on the coast began to rise, from around [-] degrees in the morning to nearly [-] degrees.Inside the tram station, Jinguji Budao and Zhang Yongjun walked down from the station one after the other, and looked around.

"Brother Jun, is that the hotel?"

Jinguji Budo asked, pointing to a hotel a hundred meters away, with his bag on his back.

"Well, it's that hotel. I know the way here. Thank you, classmate Xiao Wu."

Zhang Yongjun looked in the direction Wu Dao pointed, nodded and smiled.His name for Martial Dao followed the custom of Hua Kingdom, and for this, Martial Dao not only didn't feel disobedient, but felt quite friendly.

"You're welcome, it should be."

"Brother Jun, then I'll go back directly, and you can go back to the hotel by yourself." Jinguji Wudao couldn't help laughing and heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that Zhang Yongjun knew the way.

When Zhang Yongjun mentioned the name of the hotel before, he was confused. After all, it was his first time in this area, and he brought Zhang Yongjun here after asking the locals along the way.

It was only less than nine o'clock when the practice match ended, and it was already noon when I came all the way with Zhang Yongjun, and I spent a lot of time on the road.

After talking to Zhang Yongjun, Wu Dao was about to leave by himself, but when he was about to leave, Zhang Yongjun stopped him from behind.

"Xiao Wu, don't rush away, I have something to say to you."

Hearing this, Wu Dao turned around strangely, and looked at Zhang Yongjun with a puzzled expression.

"Is there anything else? Brother Jun."

Zhang Yongjun waved towards Wu Dao, and waited until Wu Dao came in front of him, then looked at Wu Dao and said: "I wanted to tell you when I was on the way here, but I didn't think about how to tell you."

"this."

"Let me introduce myself again. My name is Zhang Yongjun, and I also play basketball."

"I also got some achievements in China."

"I've been paying attention to you since I watched you play practice matches before."

"Um, you just entered the first year of high school this year, right? You should be 15 years old, this... your father is from Huaguo, your grandparents still live in Huaguo now, right?"

Zhang Yongjun gave Wu Dao a sense of incoherence when he spoke. Wu Dao listened to the other party's words, but couldn't grasp the key points of the other party's words, so he couldn't help interrupting:
"Brother Jun, if you have anything to say, just say it."

Zhang Yongjun was still organizing words in his mind, and now his thoughts became clear.

"If that's the case, let me be straightforward."

"Student Xiaowu, I think your talents are very outstanding, and I think you are a bit inferior to staying here to play."

"I may not have told you before, but I am actually a member of the Huaguo national team and play in the Huaguo league."

"I have already negotiated with my home team. In two years, I will retire and become the team's head coach."

"I think your talent is really outstanding. I want to ask you if you would like to play in Huaguo."

"Of course, I can't promise you anything, but I know a lot of people who can let you practice with the youth team. I believe that with your talent, you should be able to play in the youth team."

"For your basketball development, Huaguo must be much better than here."

When Zhang Yongjun said these words, there was more or less expectation in his expression.Although he and Wu Dao met by chance, Zhang Yongjun fell in love with Wu Dao after he saw the martial arts competition.

Does Huaguo lack talented young players?There is no shortage.At this stage, what Huaguo lacks is talented players in the back line, and what is not lacking is talented players in the forward position.

Zhang Yongjun feels that Wu Dao can grow into an excellent point guard or a small forward. Zhang Yongjun has seen Wu Dao's performance on the court before.Although it was just a practice match, from Zhang Yongjun's point of view, of course he could see the level of both sides in the match. Even if it was just a match, Zhang Yongjun had already recognized the talent of martial arts.

"Go to Huaguo and practice with the youth team?!"

Wu Dao was shocked when he heard this, the name Zhang Yongjun was already familiar to him, now that he heard Zhang Yongjun say that, he really remembered that he did know such a number one person in his previous life.

"Crooked machine gun" Zhang Yongjun, although people at Wudao's age have never seen him play, they have heard of him.Not only have I heard of it, Wu Dao also knows that this person has served as the head coach of the Guangdong Provincial Men's Basketball Team after retiring. The position was also promoted during his coaching period.

"I haven't thought about going back to China to play for now." Wu Dao was a little surprised, he didn't expect that Zhang Yongjun would say these words to him, and he didn't expect that after a practice game, Zhang Yongjun would actually approve of him so much.

To be honest, Wu Dao really didn't think about these things. Although he also dreamed of breaking into the NBA and becoming the first Chinese basketball superstar in his dreams, that was also a dream.

At this stage, let alone NBA superstars, Budao has not even longed for CBA superstars.

His goal is very simple and short. He just wants to lead Xiangbei High School and dominate the country in the three years of high school.Wu Dao has only thought about the future, but has not planned it yet.

"I know, it's normal for you to suddenly feel unacceptable when I tell you these things."

"Well, I'll leave you a call. You think about it carefully, think about it, and if you think it through, call."

"Well, do you have a pen and paper?"

Zhang Yongjun did not give up his recruitment plan because of Wu Dao's words. In Zhang Yongjun's view, as long as a talent like Wu Dao is properly cultivated, it will definitely shine on the basketball court.For the neon basketball world, with all due respect, the pool is too small to support a big dragon.

"Yes." Wu Dao nodded stupidly, took out a pen and paper from the bag and handed it to Zhang Yongjun, Zhang Yongjun wrote on it with ease, not only a phone number, but also an address.

"This is my address and my home phone number. If you figure it out, you can contact me through this."

"To be honest, your talent is really good. If you get effective training, you will definitely become a very strong player."

"Of course, the premise is to get effective training."

"Neon's basketball level is not very good. If you play here, your growth will be suppressed."

Zhang Yongjun wrote down his contact information, then put the small notebook back into the martial arts bag, and said earnestly.

Until now, Wu Dao's mind is still dizzy, with an unreal feeling, and he doesn't believe what is happening in front of him.

Randomly found a passer-by on the street who turned out to be from the national team. After watching him play a practice match, he invited him back to China to play?All this happened too suddenly and too fantastically, even if Wu Dao was a time traveler, he couldn't accept it for a while.

Wu Dao rubbed his cheeks to wake himself up a bit. When he came back to his senses, he suddenly shook his head at Zhang Yongjun and said:

"Brother Jun, thank you for your invitation, but I actually have my own plans."

"I must take the path of professional basketball in the future, but at this stage, I just want to lead my team to dominate the country!"

"It's not just one year! I think I achieved three consecutive championships in the three years of high school!"

When Wu Dao said this, his tone was firm and resolute, and he had no hesitation when he came back to his senses.

"Dominate the country? Three consecutive hegemony."

"That's 18 years old, and you can play in professional leagues!"

Thinking of this in Zhang Yongjun's heart, he couldn't help but relax his brows. He was really optimistic about the martial arts talent, and he didn't want to waste the martial arts talent.

Eighteen years old is really not that old, and the current level of martial arts is quite good. As long as the path is correct, the ability can be improved after three years.Even if martial arts is just standing still, at the age of 18, there is still a very strong plasticity, this point, Zhang Yongjun thinks very clearly.

Although I thought so in my heart, but when the words came to my lips, I didn't say so.

"That's it, you have to think about it. Such an opportunity is really rare. You have to know that at your age, many Huaguo players have already started formal basketball training."

"The training they have undergone, whether it is professionalism or intensity, is not comparable to yours."

"For now, I can say that you went to Huaguo, and you are still one of the top group of people, but in a few years, your level will be improved."

"It will definitely not be an easy task to make up for those gaps."

"Even if you come here after finishing high school, the team's emphasis is definitely different from what it is now, and there will be a huge gap in resource tilt."

Zhang Yongjun tirelessly followed the temptation, he talked so much with Wu Dao, he didn't want Wu Dao to waste his personal talent, but at the same time, he also had a little selfishness.

He will retire in two years and then coach. He has already discussed this with the team's top management.But the current team is at a time when there is no one to take over. In two years, when he takes office as a new official, he must have someone available in his hands.

And the young and extremely talented martial arts is a card he can choose!Zhang Yongjun is extremely confident in his vision. He believes that as long as he trains martial arts properly, the talent shown in martial arts today will definitely amaze countless people.

"This... I've already figured it out."

"Dominating the country is an agreement between me and my friends, and I will never break my promise!"

"After realizing this dream, I will come to you. I hope that by then, my strength will be recognized by you!"

Wu Dao didn't think too much, and directly replied to Zhang Yongjun. He knew that this was a good opportunity, but Wu Dao was also full of confidence in himself. He believed that even if he didn't train in the environment of Huaguo, he would not lose to others. .

This confidence in martial arts comes from the recognition of his own talent, and it also comes from the opponents he has encountered.He believed that Lingnan High School, which was defeated by them today, would never just admit defeat like this. With such a group of opponents to encourage them, Wu Dao is not afraid of the lack of intensity in the competition.

"Well, since that's the case, I won't say much."

"However, if you are on vacation, you can come back to China. When the time comes, come to Guangdong Province. I will take you around and repay your kindness for leading the way!"

Zhang Yongjun said these words very seriously, just leading the way, and he has already risen to the level of kindness.Wu Dao knew in his heart that Zhang Yongjun said this because the other party really took a fancy to his talent, and he said this to deepen the relationship between the two.

Regarding this, Wu Dao knew it well, and he was also very grateful to Zhang Yongjun for taking him so seriously. He nodded heavily and said, "I will go back after the holiday, and I will definitely contact you when the time comes. I hope I won't cause you any trouble at that time." .”

When Wu Dao said this, he respected Zhang Yongjun's title a lot. Zhang Yongjun could hear it, nodded, stretched out his hand, and patted Wu Dao's shoulder.

"Then I'll go back first, take care." Wu Dao patted the notebook that Zhang Yongjun put in his bag, and waved goodbye to Zhang Yongjun.

Looking at the back of Jinguji Budao leaving, Zhang Yongjun sighed silently, as if he felt sorry for not being able to persuade Budao to return to China to play.

On Monday, Wu Dao had just entered the campus, and he could immediately feel that the students around him looked at him differently.Before that, although Budao was also very eye-catching, it was only because of Budao's handsome appearance and height far beyond ordinary people.

But today, Budao Wudao can feel the difference.Walking all the way to the classroom, many students along the way smiled at Wu Dao instead of pointing fingers.

This strange atmosphere made Wu Dao confused, and he felt uncomfortable when he was in class all day long.

Bu Dao didn't know what happened until he went to the arena after school in the afternoon.

He is famous!

"Hey, Budo, how does it feel to be a celebrity?!" Just as soon as he entered the gym, Mitsui Shou came to Budo's side and joked.

"Celebrity? What's going on?" Wu Dao looked confused, not knowing why.

"Huh? You don't know?!"

"You are a big celebrity in our school now!"

"Now who doesn't know, your kid led the team to defeat Lingnan High School, beat the middle school MVP Shinomiya Tianye, and scored 55 points in one game."

"You are the savior of Xiangbei High School (†)"

Mitsui Shou said with a smile, but these words always sound strange to Budo.

"I haven't heard of what you said. Isn't it just a practice match with Lingnan?"

Wu Dao was stunned, he didn't understand why an ordinary practice match seemed to be so noisy.

"It seems that I really don't know martial arts!"

"A practice match is nothing, but our opponent in the practice match is not an ordinary team. In other words, it may have been an ordinary team before, but now, they are not an ordinary team."

"Tano Shinomiya was once the MVP of junior high school. I heard that he led the team to the top 16 in the country when he was in junior high school. He is a high-profile player in the county."

"We won the match against Lingnan, and the school's news agency helped to publicize it. No, you've become a celebrity."

When Budo and Mitsui Shou were talking, Kiguro Konobu came over with a smile and explained.

The basketball team in Xiangbei High School can be regarded as a very popular club. Because of Mitsui Hisashi's relationship, Xiangbei's basketball team is also well-known in the school.This also led some students to start paying attention to basketball games.

Shinomiya Tano, as the MVP in junior high school, quite a lot of people know about it, and Jinguji Budo is the player who won the top position of Shinomiya Tano in the practice match.

After a rest day, the news that Xiangbei High School defeated Lingnan High School in the practice match had already spread to the surrounding schools.Even in junior high schools, many teams knew the news. You know, just a few months ago, Yokota Middle School led by Shinomiya Tano was the nightmare of all the junior high schools in the prefecture.

Wushi Middle School.

"Hey, Captain Rukawa, have you heard? Lingnan High School where Shinomiya Tanano is located was defeated by Shonhoku led by Senior Mitsui."

"Senior Budo scored 55 points in one game, and the matchup completely blew up that Shinomiya Tianye!"
