I'm really not a superstar

Chapter 38 Talking about money?vulgar!

Memphis is about a four and a half hour flight from San Francisco.

With such a long distance, it is of course impossible for Cui Wanjun to take these two guys to San Francisco right now.

"The old coach I'm talking about is Wang Weide, an old national player in the 70s. The old man has been teaching the sports team for a long time, and he is very careful about the training of various skills. He has trained the basic skills of many famous players. Wang Zhizhi also asked him for advice on shooting when he was a child!"

"Wang JJ? I know him! The guy who made 11 for 0 shots!" Rose interjected excitedly.

Old Cui and Dorsey's faces were quite ugly. Good things don't go out and bad things spread thousands of miles!

"Coach Wang is almost 70 years old this year. The youngest son works in a big IT company in the Bay Area and married a foreign woman. After the old man retired, he was taken over to take care of him and take care of his grandson."

The Chinese basketball circle is not big, and there are fewer basketball players in the United States, and everyone's connection is relatively close.Otherwise, Ah Lian would not have made a special trip to visit Cui Wanjun.

"However, this old man is very stubborn, I can't guarantee that he will be willing to teach you!"

Experts outside the world, after all, have a bit of a temper, how can they invite them just by asking.

Dorsey is ready to visit the thatched cottage three times.

The world is impermanent, but on the second day, Cui Wanjun said to him and Rose in disbelief:
"The old man's plane today will come to see you tonight!"

???

!!!

What about the experts from the outside world?What about the three visits to the thatched cottage?What about stubbornness?

Why didn't Liu Bei take any action yet, and Zhuge Liang ran to find a job with a cover letter?

Mr. Wang's life in the United States in his later years was actually not happy.

It's not that the son and daughter-in-law are not filial, otherwise they wouldn't have made a special trip to bring the old man to the United States to live together.

The quality of life is also very high. The younger son's family lives in the suburbs of the Bay Area, which is a very nice middle-class community.The sky is blue, the temperature is suitable, and the air quality is good. Generally speaking, it is very suitable for the elderly.

San Francisco has the largest number of Chinese in the United States. Although my son lives a little far from Chinatown, there are also many Chinese from all over the world in and around the community. Everyone gathers to drink tea, chat, play mahjong, and listen to operas. , but it was also very lively.

The youngest son is also very careful. He is afraid that he will be lonely, so he will take him to Chinatown whenever he is free.

However, Wang Weide did not come to the United States to enjoy life.

In fact, Wang Weide's English is very good. As a national player, he had the experience of going abroad with the national team when he was young. At that time, the high level of foreign basketball shocked him, and he became very interested in the outside world.

After coaching, he consciously collected information on foreign basketball.

At that time, there were very few materials, and most of them were foreign language documents. In order to understand these materials, the old man insisted on learning English, and his level was not inferior to that of former national team teammate Wei Ping Bryant.

When he came to the United States with his youngest son, he actually wanted to have a closer look at the level of the country at the top of the world's basketball. It may be that he did not want to confirm and integrate his life's professional experience with American basketball.

However, after looking at it carefully, he was very discouraged, the gap was too far, farther than he imagined.

What I have always been proud of is really too far behind.

It's ridiculous, I used to have the thought of coming to the United States to preach and teach, and to spread Chinese basketball culture and ideas. I really overestimated my capabilities.

My whole life's persistence and hard work have turned out to be as vain as Don Quixote in the end, making the old man feel empty and powerless like "in the midst of chatting and laughing about the emperor's dominance, I can't bear to be drunk in life".

He is now in the community, teaching a group of children to play basketball, which can be regarded as self-entertainment.

Occasionally, juniors from domestic basketball circles visit, recalling the glorious years, it seems like a lifetime away.

Wang Weide thought he would be like this for the rest of his life, until he received a call from Cui Wanjun this morning.

"Grandpa, I have two student players here who want you to guide them. I wonder if you have time?"

"Hehe, what else can an old man like me do besides spare time? Someone still remembers the old man, where is his home? When did you come to America?"

Wang Weide thought it was a Chinese kid who came to the United States to learn football.

"It's not domestic, it's two black players."

"Black person?"

"Yes, they are all from our school, and they are also somewhat famous players. One is Joey Dorsey, and the other is Derek Rose. Have you heard of it?"

"De... Derek Rose?! You're talking about that talented high school student! No, he's an NCAA super rookie now!"

After all, Mr. Wang still pays attention to basketball, so it is impossible for him not to know the up-and-coming superstar Rose.

"Yes, that's him"

"I'll buy a plane ticket right away, go now, keep an eye on him, don't let him run away!"

******
That night, after watching Ross and Dorsey's extra practice, Mr. Wang Weide was drooling.

In his life, he has seen many so-called geniuses with his own eyes, but compared to the talents of these two guys in front of him, they are really nothing.

Of course, Rose needless to say, even the physical fitness of the black charcoal head Joey Dorsey is not comparable to Asian players.

The two of them didn't actually do anything, they just did some basic routine training and one-on-one duels according to Cui Wanjun's instructions.

Of course, Mr. Wang also saw that there was room for further refinement of these two pieces of rough jade.

"I watched the training of the two of you, and it's not bad. I won't talk about the good parts, just talk about the problem. Ross, you have a big problem with your mid-range and long-range shooting. Do you know the reason? It lies in your core strength.

Don't be noisy, I know your strength is outstanding among players of the same age and position. What I'm talking about is the use of your core strength when shooting.Your body is not stretched straight enough, not tight enough, whether you are leaning back or pulling up, in fact, your body must form a line from top to bottom.

We say that the shooting feel should be soft, but in fact the wrist is just the muzzle of the gun, and the body is the base. For the gun to be shot accurately, the base must be stable.

So the next step, you have to practice the coordination of the body when shooting and the stability of shooting.

The specific method can adopt the Sergey Belov training method of the Soviet Union in the last century.

One is to prepare a trampoline, to stabilize one’s body while constantly jumping, to find the feeling of shooting, the other is to shoot with a weight, to enhance the muscle stability when shooting, and the third is..."

After pointing out Rose's problem and putting forward his opinions and suggestions, Mr. Wang turned to Dorsey again.

"Okay, let's talk about you again. Your main problems are the following eight aspects:..."

Half an hour later, the dry-mouthed old man Wang finally came to an end. It must be finished!"

Dorsey wants to cry, old man, you are too upright, am I that bad?Should I just retire and find an electronics factory to go to work!
In any case, the effect of the old man's visit this time is very obvious. He found out the problem and even proposed a solution.

It has to be said that Chinese basketball has always been adhering to the Soviet-style academic training system, which is very different from American basketball.

This is like Chinese medicine. Although it is regarded as witchcraft and obscenity in the Western evaluation system, it actually has its own internal system and laws. Problems that cannot be solved by Western medicine may not be resolved by Chinese medicine.

The old man himself is also very happy, he has been holding back for too long, this time he can guide two American players to his heart's content, and he is a genius like Rose, he is worth the trip!

"If you have any questions in the future, you can call me at any time!" The old man said this parting message with a lot of meaning.

Dorsey suddenly interrupted: "Old man, why don't you leave and be our personal trainer!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was stunned. Before the old man said anything, coach Cui Wanjun laughed and scolded: "How much money do you have, and you still hire a personal trainer! The basketball team doesn't have such a budget!"

"Don't worry about the money. I know a company is willing to provide sponsorship. I just ask the old man, if the price is right, would you be willing to provide us with private training guidance?"

"This..." Wang Weide instinctively wanted to refuse, but a voice sounded in his mind: This is Derek Rose!You may become a super giant player in the future. Haven’t you always wanted to integrate Chinese and American basketball?The opportunity is before you.

Mr. Wang said seriously: "What money are you talking about? Vulgar!"
