I'm not really a role player

Chapter 44 Another Interview (Please recommend tickets!)
Two days after beating Kansas, Texas hosted Iowa State led by Wesley Johnson and Mike Taylor.

In this game, Xiao Du and Li Ke only played half of the game.

Augustin also missed this game because of a huge consumption in the last game and a sprained ankle.

The overall state of the Longhorns is very average. As early as the first half, the team fell behind by a large score.

In the second half, Rick Barnes was so heartbroken that he directly rested Xiao Du and Li Ke, who were in poor physical condition, and finished the game with half of the main players.

The University of Texas also lost the game in the end, and the perfect body of unanimous victory was broken because of this.

Dozens of scouts in the stands of the Frank Owen Center added a touch to both Li Ke and Xiao Du: average stamina.

Although they lost the game, the University of Texas has not been criticized for it, and even the NCAA's internal evaluation of the University of Texas has not declined in the slightest.

Because everyone understands that there are other reasons for the loss of the University of Texas.

"Two games in three days, the opponent is still not weak Iowa State University, the schedule of the Big [-] League is not reasonable..."

"Although they lost to Iowa State University, the current University of Texas can still say: the all-main Longhorn still maintains a complete victory!"

"DJ Augustin: The University of Texas lost, I didn't lose!"

"..."

The game he lost can be regarded as the first game Li Ke lost in traveling to this world. Although he only played half of the game, this loss still had a great impact on him.

"Endurance, endurance, this thing is still very important. With this endurance, what should I do if I go to the NBA and encounter back-to-back situations?"

So, the next day, Li Ke's morning jogging became even harder.

Running and running, the system prompt sounded.

"Random task: complete a morning run equivalent to twice the amount of daily training."

"Reward: D-rank Iron Will will be upgraded to C-rank."

Li Ke immediately turned black, twice?This means killing people!

You must know that Li Ke's daily training volume has reached his limit, and he is exhausted every time. If he is impatient, the training will not be effective so quickly.

If it is really twice the amount of training, it will be no different from risking your life.

But the trait of steel will, Li Ke used it once, and knew it was good, and when he encountered the opportunity to upgrade, his heart was already moved.

"Try it, try it and you won't die."

Twice that is equivalent to going around North Camps twice.

On the first lap, Li Ke ran down at a steady pace as usual, already heavy and out of breath.

"This broken system, broken mission, it's like this after one lap, how can I run on the second lap..."

Finding a bench by the street, Li Ke sat down, first to take a short rest, and second, to enter the system to see if there are any loopholes in this task. After all, he discovered the loopholes in this system a long time ago.

"Mission system..."

"Random mission..."

"It was detected that the host stopped to rest, and the task countdown: 10, 9, 8, 7..."

The system started counting down suddenly. Li Ke was taken aback. He opened his eyes and wanted to get up to continue. His feet softened, and the countdown was over.

"Mission attempt failed!"

Wait, failed attempt? !

After re-entering the system, Li Ke discovered that the task hadn't disappeared, it just indicated that the attempt failed.

"In other words, this task, I can try it multiple times?"

I just don't know if it's unlimited...

However, since he was able to try many times, Li Ke breathed a sigh of relief: "Let's continue tomorrow..."

Went home and had a hearty breakfast.

Li Ke received a call from Russell Spreeman:
"Come to the Frank Irving Center."

Just as Li Ke wanted to ask something, Spreman hurriedly added: "It's an exclusive interview, remember to pack yourself up and be more energetic."

It seems that the last interview taught Spreman a lesson.

But Li Ke was afraid of the interview. On the other side of the phone, he quickly shook his head: "No, Russell, I refuse the interview."

"Why? This is an exclusive interview, which means exposure, and exposure means that your draft price will increase because of this."

"The senior Stephen Adler from last time had ulterior motives in his interview..."

"It's different this time, you should come here, the reporters you are interviewing are your compatriots."

Hearing that he was a compatriot, Li Ke didn't refuse. He hurriedly finished his breakfast and went to the bathroom to look in the mirror. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with his image, he went out and took a taxi and went directly to the Frank Owen Center.

In the arena, Wang Yiqiong waited for Li Ke's arrival.

Just now, he had confirmed Li Ke's identity, and he also knew that Li Ke's name was neither Li Ke nor Li Ke, but Li Ke, the third son of Tang Taizong.

Now, he is chatting with the two international students from the University of Deutschland who brought him here, and continues to get to know Li Ke from the side.

"You said, he also played a football game?"

"Well, it was organized by the Huaxia Overseas Students Association, but it only scored one touchdown."

"Why only one touchdown?"

"It's a long story, but in short, that touchdown was played by Li Ke alone. A 70-yard touchdown was almost his own effort. He only scored one touchdown. First, there was a bet before the game. If the foreign students can score, even if the foreign students win. Second, except for Li Ke, the gap between the others and the opponent is too big. If you continue to fight, it may be miserable..."

"..."

While chatting, Li Ke arrived.

The first thing he saw were the two foreign students who brought Wang Yiqiong, the short-haired girl in the rugby game, and the long-haired girl standing next to the short-haired girl in the opening game of the Longhorns.

Then he saw Wang Yiqiong beside the two of them.

"Li Ke?"

Li Ke nodded, and Wang Yiqiong stretched out his right hand towards him, introducing himself:

"Wang Yiqiong, currently working in San Antonio, is also a part-time reporter for the domestic Herald, mainly reporting on the San Antonio Spurs."

After getting to know each other, the interview will begin.

Unlike Stephen Adler's interview, Wang Yiqiong's interview hardly mentioned other people, and the whole process revolved around Li Ke.

Li Ke started from his family, went to study in the United States, and spent four years in high school with Westbrook.

When he entered the University of Dezhou, he partnered with Xiao Du, gradually grew up, became famous, and attracted the attention of the NBA...

Finally, when it comes to the draft plan:

"I do have a plan to participate in this year's NBA draft. For me, NCAA experience is very important, but entering the NBA earlier can help me grow faster..."

Wang Yiqiong put away his notebook and recording pen, stood up, extended his right hand to Li Ke again, and shook hands:
"Thank you, Li Ke, let's take two photos at the end, and I will send them back to China along with this exclusive interview."

So, Li Ke took three photos of the basket frame with the Frank Irving Center printed on it, the technical platform and the stand behind the technical platform, and the Longhorn logo in the center of the court.

The interview ended here, and Li Ke was about to go back and run around the North Camps, gradually improving his stamina so that he could complete the task as soon as possible.

When the short-haired girl saw that Li Ke was leaving, she became anxious.

"Hey, are you ignoring us both again?"

Li Ke turned his head back: "What you said, when have I ignored you?"

"Last time..." The short-haired girl was held back by the long-haired girl next to her, she seemed to have reacted, and waved her hand: "No, I mean, we have met by chance three times, and now we don't even know our names."

Encounter?The first time is considered a chance encounter, but the last two are also chance encounters?

Li Ke just wanted to go back, saw the long-haired girl, thought about it, it would be okay to get to know each other.

"Then let's get to know each other."

In this way, Li Ke got to know these two girls. The one with short hair is Chen Ziyi, everyone calls her Xiaomian, an international student from the School of Communication, and the one with long hair is Lin Qi, an international student from the Law School.

"We're done getting to know each other, see you by fate."

Leaving behind his mobile phone number and Facebook account, Li Ke left without hesitation, and he had to go for a run!
