From today on is the king

Chapter 1594 1593. The standard bearer is actually him!

"You can't lose in front of the people of the country!"

"Representing the country must win!"

"Don't embarrass the motherland!"

……

In the past few days, Liu Mang represented the men's basketball team in many activities designated by the senior management of the Blue Association. In addition, the Blue Association held a small meeting almost every day, and the content of the talk was nothing more than these fake words.

Liu Mang was really speechless!

The pressure is already high, and my immediate boss is still looking for trouble.

It was okay when I was in Greece before. Two years ago in Little Japan, the guys from the Blue Association did this kind of thing. Now it’s the Olympic Games in my own country, and this painful situation has happened again.

Fortunately, the country that hosted the World Championships two years ago was Little Japan. No matter how much pressure there is, Liu Mang and his teammates will fight hard, even if there are high-level executives from the Blue Association holding back.

The good thing now is that winning the world championship two years ago gave Liu Mang and his teammates confidence so that they would not be overwhelmed by this extra pressure.

Another important point is that although the Blue Association executives may not be very smart, they really want to win, at least they will not dictate tactics.

Thanks to this, Liu Mang held back all his impatience, and took the initiative to undertake external exchanges to relieve the pressure on his teammates.

On August 8, the basketball groupings for this Olympic Games have been announced.

Fortunately, the Chinese team was in Group B with Russia, Germany, Angola, Iran, and Croatia.

Group A is the death team, Spain, Argentina, Greece, Lithuania, the United States, Australia.

According to the new regulations of FIBA, since the Chinese team and the Spanish team rank first and second in the world respectively, they are arranged as the seed teams of their respective groups.

No. [-] in the world and playing at home, it would be false to say that the Chinese team was not taken care of.

This is a privilege earned by grades!

There is also a very important point, this year's US team is too strong!
"The best players in the United States are dispatched", this is a point of view that the United States began to promote a year ago.

In addition to Kobe, the US team also has Kidd, Iguodala, Tracy McGrady, James, Prince, and Anthony on the outside.

Inside, the center position is a combination of Howard and Kwame Brown.

The power forward consists of Boozer, Chris Bosh and Josh Smith.

Superstars such as Wade, Paul, Stoudemire, and Deron Williams failed to enter Dream Eight!

Wade is due to his own reasons, McGrady left, he needs to take more responsibilities next season, and needs to use this summer to work hard to make his transformation more successful, so he declined the invitation of the US training team, and naturally lost the opportunity to enter the Dream Eight.

Paul and Deron failed to enter this super team known as the "returning dream team" because of Kidd, McGrady, James and even Iguodala and Josh Smith organization players.

This super team has been selected by the old coach K and his coaching staff. To be honest, Spain is the second in the world, but the team in Group A that is really regarded as the seed team is the US team!
China has the best players in the world, and possibly the best center forward. They are also very capable, and they have really won the world championship. Of course, the ultimate confrontation between these two teams cannot appear in the group stage.

Although the reality is cruel, most people admit that only the Chinese team, which has the best players in the world, has the chance to win the world championship again in the hands of this "returning" dream team.

……

……

The time has come to August 8th, and there is only more than one day before the Olympic Games held by the motherland. At 6:[-] pm the day after tomorrow, the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games will begin!

Although the opening ceremony has little to do with athletes, active athletes do not have the leisure time to participate in performances, and they invite people who can be called "artists" from the literary and art circles to perform.

But for every country, there is one very important thing.

Entrance ceremony!

This afternoon, there will be a rehearsal for the standing arrangement of the entrance ceremony. The Chinese Olympic Team sent a total of 639 athletes to this Olympic Games, setting a new record for all Olympic Games in history!In China, seniority is emphasized, and position is very important.

In the morning, Wei Yuanli, the top leader of the Blue Association, went to the meeting of the National Olympic Games, and returned to the Olympic Village where the men's basketball team was located excitedly.

"... This time the Olympic flag bearer is our basketball team again! This is our glory!" Wei Yuanli announced the news after talking nonsense for nearly 10 minutes.

Although this was expected, Liu Mang and the others were still very excited when they heard the news.

When Liu Mang and Yao Ming looked at each other, there was a feeling of flames flying everywhere. Both of them wanted to be the standard bearer!
Although Liu Mang seems to be the second shortest in the men's basketball team, only Liu Wei is 1.8 centimeters shorter than him, but he is still considered tall in the entire Olympic team. Except for volleyball and swimming, there are very few athletes whose height exceeds [-] meters [-].

So there is no problem for Liu Mang to serve as the flag bearer again. He himself wants to serve as the flag bearer for two consecutive Olympic Games.

The Chinese team must be the finale. As early as the beginning of the year, the Optoelectronics Bureau issued a notice that during the Olympic Games, all satellite TVs will suspend all programs other than the news broadcast. If there is a postponement or cancellation, all satellite TVs will broadcast live programs related to the Olympic Games, and rebroadcast them late at night, especially the opening ceremony. All satellite TVs will broadcast this program!
Whether active or passive, more than one billion people across the country will pay attention to this matter, and when their country hosts the Olympic Games, few people will not pay attention at all.

After Liu Mang and Yao Ming fought, they looked at Wei Yuanli at the same time, expecting Wei Yuanli to announce who the flag bearer would be.

Wei Yuanli was very satisfied with the reactions of Liu Mang and Yao Ming. The greatest enjoyment of being an official is of course that the strongest talents in the aspect of his management have to obey his command.

After pretending to be coercive for a while, Wei Yuanli said: "This time our country hosts the Olympic Games, the flag bearer of our Olympic team is..."

The voice was drawn out again, and Wei Yuanli continued: "...Arlian, who won the NCAA championship on behalf of UCLA! Congratulations to Alian. This is the result of our party branch's discussion. You have helped the country's basketball to show our progress in basketball over the years from another angle!"

Yi Jianlian was still betting with Zhu Fangyu, a fellow villager, who would be the standard bearer between Yao Ming and Liu Mang. When he heard his name, he didn't realize it all at once!
After reacting, Yi Jianlian was stunned!
The others were also stunned!
After Wei Yuanli enjoyed the official authority for a while, he left after announcing who the standard bearer was.

This is a decision made by the top management of the Blue Association long ago. The standard bearer must be the basketball team. In terms of the three major balls, only basketball can do it well in China. Other groups such as badminton, table tennis, diving, and gymnastics cannot be convinced by any group. So as long as the basketball team can enter the Olympics, it must be the basketball team.

It is very simple to make such a decision, to suppress Liu Mang's too high reputation, world champion MVP, NBA Finals five consecutive MVPs, four NBA champions, four NBA regular season MVPs... and the "Snake Study", which is considered to have changed basketball, continues to make Liu Mang stand out.

But he couldn’t make Liu Mang feel oppressed, so Yao Ming didn’t get this chance, and after Yao Ming won a championship, his prestige was also very high. After all, Liu Mang’s MVP in the finals when the Lakers won the championship was Liu Mang’s. The Lakers’ championship was regarded as the "team champion".

Liu Mang was fine, he didn't seem to have much interest in power, but Yao Ming was different. Yao Ming was already a member of the good and evil committee, and he was also highly valued by the leaders of the General Sports Bureau, which made Wei Yuanli feel a sense of crisis.

It just so happened that Yi Jianlian also won a "college student world champion". The gold content of the NCAA championship is even higher than that of the real "college student world champion" in the World Youth Championship!Let Wei Yuanli have this plan to kill two birds with one stone!
Yi Jianlian is now in a state of ecstasy: "Mom, Sister Lian, I have become a leader..."

Suddenly, Yi Jianlian felt two murderous auras, turned his head and saw Yao Ming and Liu Wei walking towards him...
