Invitation from the United States

Zhang Guan's participation in the men's basketball shocked everyone's eyes.

"The Zhang Guan in the 19-man basketball training list turned out to be that Zhang Guan! How is this possible? It's a media hype right now!"

"Yes, this group of unscrupulous media, for the sake of the attention of the bloggers, they must be making up fake news. Wait, the basketball association will dispel rumors soon!

However, with time, from the March 8th men's basketball team is getting closer and closer, the basketball association did not come out to refute rumors, Yunas did not come out to refute rumors as if everything was true.

"Is Zhang Guan on the training list that Zhang Guan?" Many people have already believed this.

At this time, a relatively familiar media finally interviewed Zhang Guan's champion team, and the champion team also confirmed that Zhang Guan in the basketball training list is indeed Zhang Guan himself.

However, this storm did not subdue, and when some fans calmed down, various doubts followed.

"Zhang Guan is not a basketball player, why can he enter the national team!"

"There are so many basketball players in our country who have not entered the national team. Why do they have to choose Zhang Guan?"

"Zhang Guan has no game experience, but he can enter the national team. There must be something shady inside!"

"Is he not in our CBA league? Doesn't he want to keep track and field athletes on top?"

"Zhang Guan must have entered the national team through the back door!"

For domestic fans, especially senior fans, it is unacceptable for a non-basketball player Zhang Guan to enter the national team. Even though Zhang Guan's reputation is great, even if Zhang Guan has achieved remarkable results, he is not a basketball player.

Fans all hope that the men's basketball team can achieve good results in the Olympics. Of course, they hope that each of the national team members is a strong player. In the past few years, the men's basketball team is indeed not transparent enough in the selection process. It is normal to fail to gain the trust and any of the fans. of.

At the same time, many fans are also very assertive. For example, during the game, there will often be fans who think that the coach's arrangement is not good, that the players on the field are not good, that the players should be off, the players should be on the field, and they should play some tactics. And, speaking of the truth, it's just right, they feel like that they're even better than the coach. This kind of fan, you can't make sense with him for a year. They will only insist on recognizing their own opinions. If the players do not get good results, they will not be able to conquer them.

Also, many domestic stars are unconvinced by this result. They worked hard for more than ten years but could not enter the national team. Zhang Guan, a person who has not played basketball for a day, entered the national team. How can you not envy your big training list?

Shortly after the end of the 2004 Olympics, the national team announced a reserve list of more than fifty men's basketball members for the 2008 Olympics. With the running-in and elimination of the year after year, new players are constantly added, and only 19 are left this year. The large list of people, and this list, like Yao, Wang Shipeng, Zhu Fangyu, Liu Wei, etc., the position is fixed, that is to say, the quota of six other players is very small, so the domestic Many players competed for these places, which was originally a thing that broke their heads, and now let Zhang Guan take one away, of course, other players' psychology cannot be balanced.

The most important thing is that Zhang Guan did not achieve any results in basketball. Just like when Zhang Guan appeared on the tennis court at the beginning of last year, foreigners also questioned the Australian Open sponsor, and also said that Zhang Guan was a "backdoor player". However, when Zhang Guan scored his results, the direction of public opinion also changed, especially It was at the back Wimbledon and US Open that the voice supporting Zhang Guan won even more.

The same is true now. Zhang Guan has never achieved good results in the basketball field. Of course, everyone is also questioning Zhang Guan.

...

Zhuge Wenbo handed several newspapers to Zhang Guan, and said, "Public opinion is very unfavorable to us! Everyone was originally on the side of the Basketball Association, but now you are in the main spotlight."

Zhang Guan took over the newspaper, and the first newspaper report was full of conspiracy theories.

"Zhang Guan has defaulted as the national team flag bearer for the opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympic Games",

"According to traditional conventions, the national team's flag bearers are basketball players in the opening ceremony of the Olympics over the years, and this year's Olympics, the national team hopes that Zhang Guan will become the flag bearer of the Olympics. The problem is that Zhang Guan is not a part of the men's basketball team. To make Zhang Guan become the flag bearer of the opening ceremony without breaking the tradition, recruiting Zhang Guan into the men's basketball team and making him a part of the men's basketball team is a joyous choice. However, if this is done, I am afraid that there will be an excellent amount of basketball players who can't enter the Olympic Games. I don't know if there is one less lineup, which will have any impact on Coach Yunas!"

Zhang Guan looked at this report with a weird look and then said, "This reporter can think about it. I all admire his imagination!"

"There are many similar speculations, and the following are all, I have marked them for you." Zhuge Wenbo pointed to the newspaper, and at this time, Zhuge Wenbo's cell phone rang.

"Called from the United States, I'll pick it up." Zhuge Wenbo walked aside and picked up the phone.

After a while, Zhuge Wenbo walked back and said to Zhang Guan, "I was called by a former colleague, Johnson. He is now in the middle of the US CAA company, and the purpose of the call is for you."

"For me? What is this American doing?" Zhang Guan asked.

"Johnson saw the news that you are going to play basketball in the United States, so he would like to ask if you are interested in participating in this year's NBA draft." Zhuge Wenbo continued, "CAA knows that I am your agent, so Johnson directly called me."

"What? Let me participate in the NBA draft? This is too whimsical!" Zhang Guan said in surprise.

"Americans have always been whimsical. And this matter is also good for top brokerage companies like CAA." Zhuge Wenbo said.

"What's the benefit?" Zhang Guan asked immediately.

"For the Chinese market, CAA is fiercely competitive in the US domestic market. They are eager to seek new markets. The European market is mature, and CAA may not be able to obtain too much profit after entering, so they need to find a new market. And where is the world's largest emerging market?" Zhuge Wenbo smiled, then said, "As far as I know, Yao in the NBA brings more than one billion dollars in revenue to Rockets boss Alexander every year, so now the entire American sports community values the Chinese market."

"What does that have to do with my participation in the NBA draft? I haven't even played a formal basketball game, and I have to prepare for the Olympics. It is impossible to try out like other rookies. A team can't choose me. Yes. Even if I am selected, I may not go to the NBA to play games." Zhang Guan said.

"CAA just wants to use you as a breakthrough. As for whether you go to the NBA or not, it doesn't matter to CAA." Zhuge Wenbo continued, "Johnson told me that if you are willing to participate in the NBA draft, they can help you operate, at least to ensure that you are selected by a team in the second round."

"Can the draft picks also work?" Zhang Guan asked, not sure.

"Of course, the second round of draft picks is not a problem. I think there must be a team that is willing to use the second round of draft picks to sell to CAA." Zhuge Wenbo continued, "How, there is no temptation? Would you like to try the NBA draft?"
