Chapter 32 National Ranking
Trotting all the way, Su Yang rushed to the grove.

He rides through the woods every day, but this is the first time he has observed it carefully. There is a natural lawn next to it. Many students are sitting or standing, reading books and listening to music alone, or chatting with each other. The youthful atmosphere is like the tide pavement.

It was dusk and moonlight, and among the crowd, Su Yang suddenly saw Lu Rulan. She was wearing white T jeans, white canvas shoes, and a light brown sunshade on top of her head. She seemed to be chewing gum, looking to the left boredly. Look right and see.

As the evening wind blew, Lu Rulan's hair fluttered from her temples.

She stretched out her hand to flirt, and when she raised her head, she met Su Yang's eyes, blinked and smiled after being dazed for a moment.

In an instant, Su Yang felt that there was only Lu Rulan in his world, and many thoughts popped up in his mind, hehe giggled.

Lu Rulan walked over quickly, and slapped Su Yang on the shoulder suddenly, with great strength.

"What are you laughing at? Erbi young people are more happy?"

Su Yang woke up instantly, and his idea of ​​Lu Rulan's sweetness was shattered in just three seconds.

"It doesn't smell like that anymore, unfortunately..."

"What did you say?" Lu Rulan asked with her hair tilted, "Didn't you practice today?"

"Played the game yesterday, rested today." Su Yang took a deep breath to calm down, "What do you want from me?"

"just chit chat."

Lu Rulan stepped forward, "I saw a news report about you at noon. It's amazing. You are now an Internet celebrity and the number one Chinese high school student in the United States. Are you planning to take the road of professional basketball in the future?"

"Yes, I want to give it a try." Su Yang walked side by side, "I don't want to leave any regrets."

"Then what is your goal, NBA or CBA, or to be a coach?"

Su Yang thought for a while: "At least the main rotation of the NBA team must be able to have a stable playing time. If you are going around for a contract, or for the championship, then you might as well do other professions."

"You are very ambitious! Then don't you spend a lot of time training every day?"

"Recently, it is six hours, and it may decrease after a while, depending on the physical load to make a decision."

The 666 devil training requires extremely strong physical condition and perseverance, and many NBA players cannot persist for a long time.

Moreover, high-intensity training can easily lead to injuries. Players such as Wade suffered from early injuries due to long-term high-intensity training. Su Yang didn't want to have a problem at a young age. After all, life is much bigger than basketball.

"Then what do you do in your spare time?"

"Playing games, browsing forums, occasionally reading books, and recently trying to read comics."

"Then if you are interested, you can come to our reading club. Most of the members are foreign students, and several of them have become your fans. It will be very interesting then. We often hold it here..."

Lu Rulan took out a card, Su Yang took it over and glanced at it, it contained the address of a coffee shop.

"How about we go grab a cup of coffee now, sit down and talk carefully."

After Su Yang finished speaking, his face turned red, his little heart was beating, and he could vaguely hear the sound.

Lu Rulan turned her head to look straight, Su Yang was stunned, and the two looked at each other again.

"You look nervous, it seems like you mustered up a lot of courage to say this." Lu Rulan chuckled, "I've never invited a girl to drink coffee before, am I the first?"

Su Yang nodded slightly embarrassed.

"That's such a coincidence." Lu Rulan's brows flashed a gleam of joy, and then a little sad expression appeared on her face.

"But I don't have time today. I have to go home before nine o'clock in the evening, otherwise my parents will be furious again."

"Then let's do it another day." Su Yang was a little disappointed, wondering if it might be a tactful refusal, but on second thought, he was sure it wasn't a refusal. After all, with Lu Rulan's straightforward personality, there was no need to find excuses to justify it.

The two chatted while walking, talking about various topics.

The time came to 08:30 in a blink of an eye. Someone came to pick up Lu Rulan by car, and Su Yang waved goodbye.

...

Cycling back to the residence, Su Yang had dinner and sat on the sofa watching TV.

The program was still local sports news. The host and guests were talking about the poor preseason record of the Lakers. They said that it was because Kobe Bryant was injured and missed the game.

While watching the show, Su Yang was thinking about how to continue to develop his relationship with Lu Rulan.

After much deliberation, I still feel that natural development is the best, so as not to cause the rhythm of life to be out of balance.

After the show was over, Su Yang got up and went into the room, turned on the computer to check the uploaded challenge video.

Judging from the number of broadcasts, the popularity has dropped sharply, and the curiosity of the audience has shifted to other places. After all, Chuan Potian is still a high school student, and he is not like LeBron. He is so strong that high school games are also broadcast live on ESPN across the United States.

Most of the reason why yesterday was so hot was due to Arenas and the official assists of the Lakers, but this kind of boring challenge of insisting on shooting all day is not as easy to complete as the ice bucket challenge, and it is difficult to form a spreading effect.

After picking a few comments to reply, Su Yang opened the mailbox to check if he had received any important letters.

Dozens of emails, in addition to the daily greetings from parents and various mass sales advertisements, there is actually an email claiming to be a brand agent, and it is specifically stated that it is not a liar, I hope to click to view the specific content.

Out of curiosity, Su Yang clicked to read.

It turned out to be a brokerage company that claimed to be able to package and help make a lot of money in China.

The main way is to arrange to participate in various variety shows, and to open a basketball training camp in the name of Su Yang.

The brokerage company is very sincere, and has even produced promotional posters, which include keywords such as 'the top ten guards in the United States' and exciting slogans such as 'the next Chinese to enter the NBA'.

Su Yang is really not interested in this way of making money, but he is quite concerned about his ranking in the United States.

Anyway, I had nothing to do, so I immediately opened Google and searched for the rankings of high school students in the United States.

The first search result came from ESPN. When I opened it, I found that it was the ranking of the 06-07 high school students in the United States.

Ranked first is OJ Mayo, who once challenged Jordan but was blown up. The second is the fat man Love, the third is Eric Gordon, the inventor of the "death crotch dribble", and the fourth is Michael Beasley, fifth is Ross...

Su Yang continued to slide the mouse down, and saw Griffin and Harden at No.16 and [-].

Almost everyone is a future NBA player. Those who have not entered the NBA are also princes of the NCAA.

It wasn't until after 25 digits that the image gradually became less profound, and various data became less complete.

Su Yang's own name appears in the 128th place. He only introduces that he is from China and studied at Muqiao High School.

The basis for ESPN's ranking is the game against Santa Margarita High School last night on the one hand, and the evaluation from anonymous scouts on the other hand. It is blunt that there may be a large error, but it will not be higher than 128.

"Yes, it's much higher than expected." Su Yang was happy, "Westbrook graduated from high school last year, and his ranking was only 137. I am higher than him. This is very optimistic about my future potential, and I will continue to train tomorrow!"
