the great gatsby

Chapter 20 Meeting Guests
"How do you feel after the game these days?" Gatsby continued to ask.

Jordan Hill bowed his head in frustration: "It's terrible! I averaged 18.1 points, 11.1 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game in the NCAA, but in the preseason, I only averaged 4 points and 2.5 blocks per game. Rebounds, other statistics are basically absent."

"Well, are there any moments that you think are noteworthy?"

"Yes, I feel very comfortable playing with you. You can always pass some good balls to me. It's a pity that I don't spend much time with you at the same time, otherwise I will definitely get more points." Jordan Hill said.

"Do you remember how we used to fight?" said Gatsby.

"High pick and roll!" Jordan Hill's eyes lit up.

"Bingo! The answer is correct. Your advantage lies in your speed. Your speed is extremely fast in the interior and your physical fitness is even stronger. My advice to you is to play more pick-and-rolls, protect the basket, and hone your defense.

In the past few years of rapid acceleration, the importance of the inside line will become less and less, and a new type of center will rise. The characteristics of the new type of center are fast speed, miniaturization, ability to protect the frame, and can also defend against small players.

What you have to do is: improve the ability to finish at the basket, and then improve the ability to defend the big and small. You have the ability to protect the frame. In this way, you can play center in a small lineup. No matter how the situation changes in the future, you Always at least a champion puzzle!If you improve your coping ability, maybe you can become a top ten center forward in the league! said Gatsby.

Jordan Hill looked fascinated: Are the top ten centers in the league...

"Gatsby, how do I start practicing now?" Jordan Hill looked expectant.

"Simple, first of all, you must practice the ability to finish after the pick-and-roll, and develop the ability to run down the pick-and-roll to ensure that you can score efficiently when someone is defending the basket. In this way, as long as the guard will pass the ball to you, because it is too easy. Get an assist.

The second is defense. One is the frame protection under the basket. In fact, you have to learn to stand. With your speed, as long as you stand correctly, it is difficult for anyone to break through your air defense zone; It's quick, as long as you learn to predict, it's not easy for a defender to surprise you! "Gatsby explained in more detail.

Jordan Hill listened very seriously: "Then shall we start now?"

Gatsby looked at Jordan Hill's hopeful face, nodded with a smile, and then the two began to practice high pick-and-rolls. Once they got acquainted with each other, the two of them communicated to solve any mistakes. After lunch, they took a break and continued to practice. They simply forgot to sleep and eat. They didn't stop training until Li Wanyu called.

After taking a shower, Gatsby went straight to the meeting place. The meeting place with the client was a nearby private club. As soon as he parked his car and walked to the entrance of the parking lot, Li Wanyu stopped him, dragged him to the club, and complained: "Why did you come so late, the customers have been waiting for a long time."

Gatsby said helplessly: "I was absorbed in the training with my teammates, and I didn't realize that the time passed so quickly. I also encountered a little accident on the road. It happened that there was a rear-end collision at the intersection, and it was blocked for a while."

"Well, be smart when you go in. Although they are asking us to shoot commercials, they are the sponsors after all. Remember to be polite. They also have some energy in the country. It's best not to offend them. Don't worry, they are all businessmen after all." Li Wanyu instructed.

Gatsby nodded, with a well-behaved appearance, Li Wanyu was very pleased. Gatsby used to be quite mischievous, and even lost his temper when he met a client he didn't like. Now, after going through that incident, he has matured up.

The clubhouse is run by Chinese people, and the decorations are all Chinese style. Gatsby feels very comfortable. He walks along the corridor while watching the garden. New York is expensive, and the garden is of course not big, but it can already show the wealth of the owner of the clubhouse. To be able to open such a large clubhouse in this place is because of its strength.

The door of the living room was ajar, Li Wanyu helped Gatsby tidy up his clothes, and opened the door to see if there was nothing wrong with him, and Gatsby went in and smiled knowingly: Oh, so it's him!
Li Wanyu did not introduce the client to Gazibi beforehand. She thought that Gazibi might not know anyone from China, but Gazibi was a reborn person after all, and he still knew the famous bosses in China. The visitor was from Yiniu. Boss Long Chunsheng.

Long Chunsheng is also a legendary figure. He started out as a cattle worker, and later became the production director of a dairy company through hard work. Then he founded a dairy company by himself. In less than 20 years, he built the company to the top level in the country. His rise is also being analyzed as a business case.

Seeing Li Wanyu and Gatsby coming in, Long Chunsheng stood up with a smile and said, "Mr. Gatsby, Miss Li Wanyu, please sit down."

Li Wanyu made an introduction: "Mr. Long, this is Mr. Gatsby."

Long Chunsheng laughed loudly: "Mr. Gai is young and promising, and he is already famous in the country. How could I, Long, not know him!"

Gatsby extended his hand to shake Long Chunsheng's hand, and said with a smile, "I have admired Mr. Long's name for a long time."

Long Chunsheng smiled. He thought that Gatsby was speaking politely. He knew that Gatsby was a Chinese-American, and he was of the third generation. Being able to speak Chinese was already a great thing, and he probably wouldn't care about domestic affairs. up.

"Mr. Gai, this is our Minister of Commerce, Li Chaosheng. He is mainly responsible for the cooperation." Long Chunsheng introduced to a middle-aged business elite.

Gatsby also hurriedly shook hands with him. The two were exchanging greetings when the girl standing beside said dissatisfiedly, "Dad, why didn't you introduce me?"

"Mr. Gai, this is my little girl. Her name is Long Xiaoman. She is going to college in New York. This time, she came here specially to meet Mr. Gai, and also to miss my little baby." Long Chunsheng slapped his forehead and said with a smile, The eyes are full of pampering.

The girl was about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a small and delicate oval face, and a straight nose that seemed to be drawn with a ruler. She raised her head and looked boldly at Gatsby.

Gatsby smiled, "Hello, Miss Long."

Seeing Gatsby's deep eyes, Long Xiaoman couldn't help but blushed, and summoned up courage: "Gatsby, I'm your fan."

Gatsby smiled slightly: "Miss Long sees it differently, it's really an honor for me!"

Long Chunsheng laughed: "Mr. Gai's Chinese skills are so profound that he can even use idioms."

Gatsby smiled and said: "After all, we are all Chinese. No matter where we are, as long as we can speak Chinese, we are still Chinese. This is what my grandfather taught me since I was a child. If I have the opportunity, I must go back to China to read it." look."

"Grandpa Ling is really patriotic. It's really admirable. If Mr. Gai wants to go back to China and have a look, just give me a call. I will help Mr. Gai prepare for his trip and make Mr. Gai feel at home!" Long Chunsheng laughed. road.

"Then thank you, Mr. Long." Gatsby said happily.

"Yes, I will be your tour guide then!" Long Xiaoman also said happily.

Li Wanyu looked at the youthful and romantic Long Xiaoman, and suddenly felt uncomfortable. After talking with Long Chunsheng and the others, she used the excuse to send Gatsby home. The two drove home, and he would deal with the advertisement. Li Chaosheng made a deal, and bringing Gai Ci over was just to save Long Chunsheng.
