"About this matter, I still need to discuss with my agent before making a decision. At the same time, you haven't agreed to my conditions yet." For such a major event as changing nationality, Stephen naturally has to discuss with his father, mother, aunt and others. We discussed it, but Stephen couldn't say that, because if he said that, the other party might lobby his relatives, so Stephen pulled the agent out.

In some cases, the agent is the player's shield, such as contract renewal, business negotiations, and sometimes borrowing money from relatives can be used as an excuse. Hong Tianpeiming knew that Stephen was an excuse, but he didn't Method.

"I will try my best to persuade Master Chen. I hope Brother Shi will think more about it. Chinese basketball needs you very much. You will be an idol in the hearts of thousands of teenagers. At the same time, players like you are also needed to participate in the world stage of basketball. After Hong Tianpei finished speaking, he took his leave and left. Stephen saw Situ Yulin and Mo Xueru surrounded by a group of people, so he left quietly without saying hello to them.

The strong power brought by the Chrysler Crossfire 6 V160 engine pushed the car forward at a speed of [-] kilometers per hour. The huge roar resounded on the quiet Azaraga Avenue. The wine bottle was waving towards the light, squeaking and yelling, Stephen listened to the music while driving, but kept repeating what happened tonight in his mind.

The amazing Chinese Kung Fu, the invitation from China, and the reunion with Situ Yulin and Mo Xueru, all of which made Stephen never expect that life is always full of all kinds of unexpected things, and Stephen never thought that he would be here Such a rewarding last day of the year.

"Ring, ring, ring..." The mobile phone next to it suddenly spun, Stephen pressed the answer button, the music stopped automatically, and a beautiful but unpleasant voice came from the speaker: "Stephen, where are you?" , how can we not find you?"

It was Situ Yulin's voice. Apart from the voice sounding a little angry, the breathing sounded a little rough. In addition, there seemed to be another voice beside him who was also panting. It should be Mo Xueru. Stephen's side Step on the accelerator, increase the speed to 180, and whisper to the other side: "I'm sorry, I have left there."

"Do you know that the two of us came here just for you, and you left without even saying hello, aren't you a little sorry for us?" Situ Yulin was very angry, and it is true that the two of them came here just for Stephen After Mo Xueru knew that Consul Hong was coming to persuade Stephen, she discussed it with Situ Yulin, otherwise, with their identities, how could they come to the banquet in Seattle.

The main economic zones and urban belts of the United States are distributed along the Atlantic and Pacific coasts, and the central part is basically a desert area. Among the cities in the eastern part of the United States, Los Angeles is the undoubted leader and the core of the eastern cities. It is only comparable to New York.

Compared with Los Angeles, Seattle is like a second-tier city. It’s okay to talk about normal times. Situ Yulin would never come to Seattle with him at this time like today, but Stephen sneaked in without even saying hello. Leaving, why didn't Situ Yulin and Mo Xueru get angry.

"I'm sorry, I really have something to do today. How about I invite you to dinner tomorrow and apologize to you. By the way, you can come to our home stadium to watch our game. I wonder if the two ladies are satisfied?" Don't say that there is something to do today, no It's okay, it's impossible for Stephen to return.

"Hmph, we don't have a place to stay for two nights, and we said we'd go to see your new house, just to make do with one night." Situ Yulin's words, Stephen couldn't help thinking about it. Since the beginning of the regular season, Stephen hasn't had a woman yet. I have touched it, so it is possible to kill two birds with one stone tonight.

, But soon Stephen came to his senses, rationality overcame desire, if he had to say one, it might still be possible, but the possibility of two would be lowered, and Stephen didn’t have a good impression of this kind of rich girl, a Karen William would fed up.

"I'm sure someone will arrange it for you. As for my house, it's too far away and very ordinary, so let's forget about it." Since he has no idea, it's better to pretend to be a gentleman. Stephen rejected the other party directly , but it made Situ Yulin and Mo Xueru feel a little more fond of Stephen.

After hanging up the phone, Stephen sighed, he didn't know that he was going to make such a fuss, a beautiful woman came to the door, but he refused, it was absolutely impossible to change himself, but now Stephen has no fun Maybe it's because he's tasted all kinds of flowers and plants, which instead makes Stephen pursue a stable and reliable relationship, which may also be a kind of maturity.

After returning home, Stephen began to call his father. For this kind of thing, Stephen still wanted to hear his father's opinion first. No matter how capable his aunt was, no matter how far Stephen's achievements had surpassed his father's, but the most dependent , When encountering difficult choices, the first thing Stephen thinks of is his father.

"Son, I will not give you any advice on this matter. You have grown up and should have the ability to judge yourself. It is your grandfather's lifelong wish to return to your own country, but it is not my wish. I think that where we are, there is home. If the country is invaded by foreign enemies like before, we will definitely give everything to it, because it is our responsibility, but it is only for basketball like now. Achievements in this area are needed to boost confidence, but it does not mean that we need to make sacrifices, so this matter is best left to your own choice. If you want to play in the Olympics, but don’t care If you don’t have any nationality, you can agree, if you don’t want to go back, that’s okay, anyway, you can come back anytime, but you can’t play for the US team.”

Shi Xiangdong couldn't hold back his tears over there. Although he also didn't have any memories of the country, he knew his father's nostalgia for his hometown. The small red wooden box was always locked tightly to prevent them from having any memories. He always thought that there was some treasure in it, but once he couldn't restrain his curiosity, he quietly opened the box, but he was disappointed when he opened it. There was only a cloth bag inside, and the cloth bag It's just a handful of dirt inside.

Shi Xiangdong couldn't forget the beating after he was discovered. All Stephen's grandfather didn't want the children to touch was because he was afraid that the children would throw away the little remaining homeland. That was his life. Before he finally passed away, he specifically confessed , Be sure to bury your own ashes with your hometown, so that even if you can't return to your hometown, you can still be buried in the soil of your hometown.

World affairs and busyness made Shi Xiangdong gradually forget the meaning of his father's name for himself. Although when he was bullied by chance, he would think that he should actually be a member of that country on the other side of the ocean, but most of the time, he still It feels like life is better here.

Moreover, under the media's propaganda, he even has a sense of fear towards that country. Although this fear has become less and less with the communication with each other, if he is asked to go back, he still does not have the determination and courage. There is a family, a mouth and a career here, so naturally I don't want to go back.

Like him, he doesn't have any feelings for that place. All his impressions are learned from his father's nagging. He can feel his father's feelings for his hometown, but it doesn't mean he has the same feeling, so he has no feelings for this place. Although it felt unexpected, he didn't want to interfere with Stephen's decision.

This is also a popular practice of American parents. After the child has grown up, he seldom interferes with everything about the child, because he has grown up, and being able to bear legal responsibility means that he can also bear legal responsibility. responsibility for life.

In his heart, he wanted his son to go back, but he didn't want his son to go back. This was a very contradictory idea. He didn't think there was any benefit in going back, but it was his father's long-cherished wish. After confirming that he would not interfere, he hung up the phone , sitting there alone like a statue.

After getting no answer from his father, Stephen called his aunt Shi Xianghua again. Shi Xianghua's social status and knowledge far surpassed Shi Xiangdong, and she was also an important person who changed the trajectory of Stephen's life. Besides, the person Stephen trusts and trusts the most.

"If there is no harm to your development here, I suggest you agree, but you must negotiate with the other party and ask for enough benefits. If you are inconvenient or embarrassed, you can let your agent Come forward and bargain with the other party on the grounds of losing commercial interests, and at the same time reserve the right to come back, the more urgent the other party is, the less time is available, the more beneficial it is for us to negotiate, I suggest you delay them for a few days."

It has to be said that Shi Xianghua's suggestion is more in line with Stephen's idea. It is possible to go, but it must have enough benefits and benefits, and at the same time retain one's own initiative. What's more, the first condition mentioned by Stephen has not yet been fulfilled by the other party. Well, of course there is no need. ,

Although the opinions solicited are different, it has provided a basis for Stephen's decision. Stephen did not decide to change his nationality, but he did not reject this change. For players like Stephen, nationality does not matter. It's important, and the alliance has no restrictions. Stephen was going to call Morris that night. After thinking about it, it was already late at night. Once the call is over, Modans won't be able to sleep well that night, or Let him sleep well.
