Chapter 219: Fan Xi's startup team

~10 min read 1,902 words

Fan Xi formed a team with Leonard, Butler, and two other young players who were training seriously, and let the remaining players form 6 teams at will to fight full-court.

At first, these young people were very excited, thinking that killing NBA stars was right in front of them.

The final full-court score was.

21:2.

22:3.

21:0.

23:1.

21:2.

23:1.

These proud and complacent young people were all killed.

After losing the game, Fan Xi didn't say much. These young people didn't have any self-blame behavior. They continued to giggle and practice basketball there, not feeling that there was anything sad about it. It's normal to not be able to beat NBA players.

Fan Xi remembered the jersey numbers of the few players who had heavy faces and had been practicing additionally.

Then, he communicated with the leaders of the Basketball Association afterwards.

At lunch, the Basketball Association leader announced the latest decision. "Guo Ailun, Ma Bo, Sun Tonglin, Wang Zhelin, Gu Quan, Li Zhendong, Liu Ming, He Tianju, eight players stay, and the remaining 27 players take the flight back to the country in the evening."

When this sentence came out, the whole audience was in an uproar. Many people still had rice in their mouths, staring at the Basketball Association leader.

They were all caught off guard. They arrived in Los Angeles the day before yesterday and went back today. Are you playing with us?

Someone shouted loudly: "Why? Is it fun to tease us? We are here for special training. If we delay the national team training, who will take responsibility?"

This is a power forward with a height of 221 cm. His physical talent is very good. He is considered the only new generation player who has a chance to enter the NBA after Yao Ming and Yi Jianlian. His club is also very good to him, giving him meticulous care.

Therefore, he is naturally arrogant, thinking that the national team will inevitably be carried by him in the future.

The strongest talent in this training camp stood up to shout, and others naturally echoed and protested loudly.

The scene was very chaotic.

At this time, Fan Xi stood up, patted the table hard, and roared: "Are you going to rebel? Are you trying to lose face here?"

Fan Xi's roar suppressed the scene.

"This decision was made by me."

Fan Xi said righteously, looking around, his sharp eyes suppressed all unconvinced gazes.

Someone whispered: "Why?"

"Because you didn't prepare at all, you didn't think about coming here to polish your skills and exercise your body."

"What time did you enter the training hall today? Your hotel is right next to it, and it doesn't take 5 minutes to walk over. And me, it takes 50 minutes to drive from Beverly Hills. I can arrive at 8:30. Why can't you? Also, these two, they even arrived at the training hall at 7 o'clock. They are stronger than you, and they played a game before. They are already NBA players, and they are still like this. What about you?"

Fan Xi questioned aggressively.

A player immediately retorted: "We are still jet-lagged..."

"You arrived the day before yesterday, I arrived yesterday, who needs jet lag more? If your body can't adapt, then I suggest you never enter the national team."

"We are going to fight abroad. Various situations need to be faced. It's not because you didn't adjust your jet lag that the game won't be held."

Fan Xi stared at him aggressively until he lowered his head.

"I know you are the pride of the country, the baby bumps in your respective clubs, and some leaders just said that some of you have the talent to enter the NBA. However, I want to tell you that your talent is not worth mentioning, and you are not yet qualified to squander it at will on your talent."

"Therefore, I left these eight players who I think are relatively hardworking. They will train with me next. I hope they maintain this spirit."

"I know some people are unconvinced. Perhaps my observation is wrong. But fate is like this. Opportunity is not sprinkled on everyone equally."

"If you are angry, unhappy, and feel aggrieved, remember today's feeling, remember the shame of being swept out of the house by me today, and then become strong. I am waiting for you to slap me in the face, I am waiting for you to kill me!"

Fan Xi left this sentence, and the smell of gunpowder in the restaurant was heating up.

But Fan Xi was as calm as a lake. He sat there, continuing to eat calmly.

He was waiting for someone to stand up and resist, patting the table and fighting against himself.

If there is such a person, he might leave him.

But no, he was very disappointed.

The chaos in the restaurant was suppressed.

Butler and Leonard sat on the side, silent, and they truly felt Fan Xi's leadership. When those Chinese players were tossing around at the beginning, they even felt that they would fight.

However, Fan Xi suppressed them.

Then, they learned from the translator that Fan Xi had cut 80% of the players in the youth training camp and used words to deter them, letting them pack up and return to the country after only two days.

Immediately, the two rookies showed respect. They realized that Fan Xi was a leader with absolute authority. They obeyed Fan Xi more from the bottom of their hearts.

If this is an action of killing chickens to warn monkeys.

The 28 players who were cut were chickens, the 8 players who stayed were monkeys, and Leonard and Butler were also monkeys.

Afternoon.

The training hall became empty, but the enthusiasm for training increased instantly.

Moreover, with the departure of 28 players, each Chinese player got three to four trainers to guide them personally, and the training efficiency increased linearly.

And the trainers began to tailor training plans for these players, strengthening their weaknesses, making their progress more obvious.

These eight people are undoubtedly lucky ones.

Without Fan Xi, like before eating from a big pot, it is difficult for them to get this kind of NBA-level personal training.

Seeing this scene, the Basketball Association leaders couldn't help but respect Fan Xi more, and also fully understood Fan Xi's previous behavior.

Fan Xi participated in the training camp for three days, and then entered the Hollywood crew to continue the previous shooting. He still has about 20 days to shoot.

For him, who has a lot of vacation, this is not a very complicated workload.

However, on the second day he entered the Hollywood crew, trouble found him.

Because when the director was shooting key plots, he needed two black bodyguards who looked fierce. Fan Xi thought of Leonard and Butler at that time.

When these two kept their faces and didn't speak, they were simply the fierce ones themselves, which can be called the Black version of "No Brain" and "Unhappy".

Fan Xi called to ask if they were interested, and neither of them hesitated, because this was paid.

The crew will pay them a salary of 50,000 USD each.

For them who have not received the official NBA salary, it can be said to be a huge sum of money: this year's NBA rookies are relatively unlucky, because they encountered a lockout as soon as they entered, so most rookies did not sign a contract, and they couldn't get income from the team.

Of course, there are plenty of banks willing to provide them with credit cards, and they can swipe astronomical numbers on any POS machine.

But these two didn't do this. They are both very restrained people.

Fan Xi likes them very much.

The feelings between them are getting deeper and deeper. They have regarded Fan Xi as a real leader, and they admire him from the bottom of their hearts.

This was originally an act of increasing income for the two little brothers, but it was written by the media as Jack Fan bringing bad rookies, taking this year's two first-round picks into Hollywood, intending to completely destroy the Clippers' team culture.

This article is eloquent and can be said to be incisive. It criticized Fan Xi in a reasonable way, and also enthusiastically wished the Clippers to lock in the 2012 top pick one year in advance.

Fan Xi is used to this nonsense.

But "No Brain" and "Unhappy" were very angry.

The silent Leonard wrote a screen of counterattack on his social website, saying that Jack just brought them over to guest star, solved their livelihood, increased extra income, and it was all normal shooting, which did not affect training at all. In fact, Jack also took them to polish defensive skills in the training camp. Jack is a leader who truly loves basketball. Anyone who slanders him is a stupid donkey.

Originally, no one would care about what a rookie said.

However, when Leonard wrote the word "donkey", the famous commentator Charles Barkley felt that his DNA moved. He was the only man who made all the donkeys and donkeys in the United States turn around and leave when they heard his name.

At that time, he was interviewing Chris Paul, who had just joined the Lakers. He asked Paul: "How do you view Jack Fan taking Clippers rookies to make movies?"

"That is his specialty. His talent in this area is the best in the league." Chris Paul said yin and yang: "Soon, you will see the Los Angeles Clippers become all Hollywood male stars. Perhaps one day you will see them walk on the Oscars awards ceremony. Although they will never touch the championship trophy again."

"But this is also the only way they can defeat the Lakers. The Lakers will only speak with basketball."

Chris Paul is a big yin and yang master.

He now completely considers himself the commander of the Purple and Gold Legion.

He hopes to narrow the distance with Lakers fans.

However, Lakers fans did not chase after him because of these words. Instead, the famous Lakers fan and great director Nicholson said: "It is understandable to do some other work in the offseason. Going to make movies is better than going to nightclubs. It is better for Chris not to discuss the previous Finals MVP too much before making any achievements."

Nicholson's words represent the true thoughts of the vast majority of Lakers fans.

They feel that Paul talks too much.

At the same time, Jimmy Butler released words: I want to beat Paul. Because he has no respect for Jack.

Butler showed the side of a gold medal bodyguard. His loyalty to Fan Xi has reached the level of Oakley to Jordan back then.

In fact, when Chris Paul and others were frantically looking down on Fan Xi and the Clippers.

Fan Xi's side is gathering real sages, and the chemical reaction is skyrocketing.

Isn't it, the headache-inducing Little Jordan also took the initiative to find Fan Xi.

The Clippers' team structure at this time is very similar to the Bulls in the early days of Michael Jordan's entrepreneurship, and the innate conditions are even better.

It's just that no one makes such an analogy.

The media's eyes are only fixed on those dazzling stars of the Los Angeles Lakers.
