The genius of the basketball madman is on the left

"I know, I know you are a good person." The tall girl raised her head and blinked at Zuo Li and said.

Zuo Li shrugged, why was he suddenly issued a good card, but Zuo Li didn't care, the good card was good, and he took the 'trophy' from Tom's hand.

"It's not easy to get to Fifth Avenue from here, we'll drop you off at the edge of Harlem, and then there's a bus, a subway station, and a taxi, oh yes, here's your wallet and your phone, just now Tom Found it from those bastards."

"Okay, I can call my family and ask them to pick us up. My companion is not in a good condition." The girl took the phone and wallet, and it was obvious that she had regained her composure.

"That would be the best." Zuo Li nodded, and at the same time gave her a high look. As a rich girl, she grew up in a honey jar, and she can recover her calm so quickly when encountering things, which is not bad.

The phone call was finished quickly, and the rest was to cross a few streets. Zuo Li also relaxed, and continued to think about the next thing in his mind.

But obviously, Zuo Li couldn't calm down. Although the girl next to him was short, she raised her head to take a look after taking two steps.

"Just say what you have to say." Zuo Li was really afraid that she would suffocate him to death.

"Well, what's your name?"

"Zuo Li, left and right, stand upright." Zuo Li's last words were in Chinese.

"Asian?"

"Chinese." Although even Mr. Derek doesn't know where he is from, since Zuo Li is here, he can only be Chinese, even if the king of heaven is here, he must be Chinese.

"Zuo...stand, I remember!" The little girl read out in standard American Chinese with a serious look.

Zuo Li scratched his head, why does this thing remember my name, I can’t think that we can meet again in the future, we are not the same way, do you still want revenge, no, repay me, it’s really unnecessary, buddies just pass by to save someone , I really have no idea of ​​being a superhero.

"What do you do? Have you ever learned Kung Fu? It just felt like watching a movie."

There are so many questions, dude.

"Well, not every Chinese has learned Kung Fu, I just happen to know a little bit, and I'm a street ball player, I can't make movies." Zuo Li felt that it was necessary to give this group of people who think of Kung Fu when they mention Chinese I have done some simple science popularization, but think about my performance just now...

Well, the misunderstanding should be bigger.

"Streetball, really?! Then have you heard of Rock Park! I just want to come to see it live, have you played there before!"

Unexpectedly, talking about basketball actually made the girl excited, and seeing Zuo Li's expression was even more pleasantly surprised.

Zuo Li had a headache, why?

But hearing this topic, Tom and Jerry, who were bored behind, were not sleepy anymore.

"Rock Park, then you must have heard the name 'King', this is the man in front of you, he is the latest King of Rock Park!"

"How can you miss this guy while watching streetball? He is super strong. Although he is still very young, it won't be long before his name will resound throughout the United States!"

"Stop, stop, stop!" Zuo Li hastily stopped the groundless flattery of these two people. Although it was true, keeping a low profile is king: "Don't listen to their nonsense, I'm just a rookie who debuted for two days."

"Well, here it is, that is your aunt's car."

As soon as Zuo Li finished speaking, they arrived at their destination, and a luxury Mercedes-Benz commercial vehicle was parked on the side of the road, which looked a bit out of place with the dilapidated Harlem District.

"Oh..." The girl was a little disappointed when she was interrupted halfway through the story, but it was obvious that Zuo Li didn't intend to continue, and someone had already got off the Mercedes-Benz, so she had to leave too.

"Let's go guys, go back to evening training." Zuo Li stopped early, watched the two go forward, and he and Tom Jerry walked back shoulder to shoulder.

Looking at Zuo Li's back, the girl suddenly felt a little sad. Maybe she would never see this parting in this life, so she ran two steps quickly and shouted at Zuo Li's back: "Zuo Li, my name is Elizabeth Orr. Sen, remember my name!"

Zuo Li didn't look back, and calmly waved his hand as farewell.

"What did she say her name was? What's pale? Forget it's not important, let's go, it's been too long, Mr. Derek should be in a hurry."

Zuo Li continued to move forward. For him now, this matter is just a small episode. Who can imagine the future...

……

Three days later, Zuo Li continued to show his prowess in the Rock Park. During the past three days, people challenged Zuo Li in an endless stream, but Zuo Li still maintained a complete victory, and even rarely allowed his opponents to score. 'The name is getting louder and louder.

Just this afternoon, AND1's manager finally appeared in Rock Park as Zuo Li expected.

"Hi, I'm Ford, on behalf of AND1 I'm extending a formal invitation to you." There were no pleasantries, standard American style.

After finishing speaking, he handed over the contract, Zuo Li didn't talk nonsense, opened it and scanned it, and secretly said: "As expected."

In terms of the contract, the main condition is that Zuo Li signs a contract for 10 years, with 5 US dollars per year for the first 3 years, and the bonus will be calculated separately, and will increase by 5% every year for the next 20 years, and the bonus will also be calculated separately. Zuo Li will be provided with 5 pairs of the latest every quarter Model AND1 sneakers and multiple sets of training clothes.

At first glance, in 2003, when the inflation was not yet inflated, it was not easy for a 14-year-old to be able to sign a contract of 3 yuan per year without bonuses. This was much better than many unknown street players.

However, this is far from Zuo Li's idea.

"Sorry, this doesn't meet my psychological expectations, so forget it." Zuo Li handed the contract back.

"Well, this, you think about it, we are the most experienced, and the conditions can be discussed again." Ford said, in the past, if you don't sign, you will be defeated, but Zuo Li defeated Tai Long. He also observed Zuo Li in the past two days. Li has full potential, so naturally he will not give up so easily.

Sure enough, he took the bait, Zuo Li smiled slightly, and took advantage of the situation to state his conditions.

"I won't sign for such a long time, at most 5 years, 12 US dollars per year, plus bonuses, unlimited supply of sneakers and jerseys, and, I will not easily participate in your tour, because I am not interested in streetball, playing streetball It's for a promise that I'm going to go to high school right away and follow a career path."

"Uh, this, I have to go back and ask." Ford wiped his sweat. Obviously, he was also frightened by Zuo Li's condition, which was completely different from what he thought when he came here, and there was really too much money. In this era, $12 is already the annual income of an ordinary middle class.

Ford left, and he needed to report Zuo Li's conditions.

Looking at Ford's back, Zuo Li smiled: "Everything is under control."
