NBA: Start the water cooler and reach the Hall of Fame
Chapter 297 The world has changed
Yi Jianlian's silence didn't last long, and Li Kaiming heard his voice from the phone.
"I won't be able to tell for a while. Send me your home address and I'll find you!"
Although Li Kaiming is generally not very good at judging other people's tone, he still heard a sigh from Yi Jianlian's voice.
After hanging up the phone, Li Kaiming sent the address, and within an hour, the doorbell rang.
Li Kaiming opened the door and welcomed Yi Jianlian in, and then the two sat down in the living room on the first floor.
After asking the nanny to pour a cup of tea for Yi Jianlian, Li Kaiming asked, "Why is it so mysterious that you can't explain it clearly on the phone?"
Yi Jianlian took the teacup from the nanny's hand, whispered thank you, and put the teacup on the table, "Do you remember what I told you about naturalization before?"
Li Kaiming smiled and picked up the tea cup and took a sip. "Of course I remember. Didn't you say that the Chinese Basketball Association would send someone over to contact me soon?"
Yi Jianlian glanced at Li Kaiming with a strange look, and then nodded.
Li Kaiming was so frightened by Yi Jianlian's gaze that he suddenly had an idea flash in his mind and asked tentatively, "The person who called me last night..."
"Yes, comrades from the Foreign Affairs Department of the Sports Bureau..." Yi Jianlian sighed, and then Li Kaiming replied.
Li Kaiming had an embarrassed look on his face. He wanted to represent China in the competition, but he didn't expect to offend his opponent before the two sides even met.
But he also had a reason, "The person who contacted me was not very professional. You don't know when we returned to Washington yesterday. In that case, isn't it normal for me not to reply to the message?"
Li Kaiming crossed his legs and leaned back.
Yi Jianlian frowned and asked in doubt, "What news, didn't he call you?"
Li Kaiming took out his mobile phone and took a look at last night's message records to Yi Jianlian, "Well, he sent a text message first, and after I didn't reply, he called me to question me, otherwise I wouldn't have called him crazy, and he started all over again. He didn’t tell me who he was until the end!”
Yi Jianlian understood at a glance that the problem was 100% caused by Lin Yan. Now he was pouring all the dirty water on Li Kaiming. If he told Li Kaiming the truth, the relationship would definitely be broken due to the latter's temper.
Now the national team needs Li Kaiming. For the sake of the overall situation, they must turn conflicts into friendship.
So Yi Jianlian said to Li Kaiming, "Kaiming, can you give me some face and apologize to that comrade in the Foreign Affairs Department? This is a misunderstanding!"
But Yi Jianlian still underestimated Li Kaiming's temper. Hearing Yi Jianlian asked him to apologize, Li Kaiming exploded on the spot.
"A-Lian, is it inappropriate for me to apologize? He called me in the middle of the night and disturbed my rest. It's good that I didn't let him apologize to me, but he also asked me to apologize to him?"
Yi Jianlian was startled, with a wry smile on his face.
Of course he also knew that this matter was the fault of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but it would probably be harder to get those uncles to admit their mistake than to kill them!
As a player who has been in the national team for many years, Yi Jianlian understands those people very well.
Seeing the expression on Yi Jianlian's face, Li Kaiming immediately thought of something.
"Ah Lian, have those people found you?"
Yi Jianlian nodded silently.
"They asked me to come forward and apologize?"
Yi Jianlian did not speak or move, but this was the default!
In an instant, Li Kaiming only felt a rush of blood rushing down the spine to the back of his head!
Magol Bazi!It's good that I didn't ask you to apologize to me, but you still want me to apologize to you?
There are no doors!Not to mention doors, there are no windows!
A sneer appeared on Li Kaiming's face, "Ah Lian, did you say that, what will happen if I don't apologize?"
Of course Yi Jianlian knew what would happen, but he really couldn't say that!
Even if he was just a relayer, he couldn't say it.
With the current situation of the Chinese men's basketball team, it is obvious to the naked eye that Yao Ming will regress after his retirement. Now the Chinese men's basketball team needs Li Kaiming, not Li Kaiming who needs the Chinese men's basketball team!
Yi Jianlian even wanted to ask Minister Lin if his brain had been kicked by a donkey?
No one can tell whoever is begging, what are you doing here?
Seeing Yi Jianlian lowering his head and remaining silent, Li Kaiming snorted coldly.
"A-Lian, help me tell those people that if they are not sincere, don't come to me. I don't have to play on behalf of the Chinese men's basketball team!"
Yi Jianlian raised his head suddenly, "Kaiming, didn't you say this is your parents' greatest wish?"
Li Kaiming smiled, "That's my parents' wish, but the premise is that I can get happiness and respect playing there! If I can't guarantee these two basic points, I believe my parents in heaven will understand me. "
"Besides, with my ability, I believe the American men's basketball team also really wants me to play on their behalf! What's wrong with me, an American, playing for my country? It's appropriate, right?"
Li Kaiming said two sentences in a row, directly silencing Yi Jianlian.
Yes, Li Kaiming is still an American citizen, and the Chinese Men’s Basketball Association and the Basketball Association have no control over who he plays for!
Yi Jianlian now wants to punch that guy Zhang Yu twice!
Madhu, a guy who succeeds more than succeeds and fails more often than not!
Having said this, Yi Jianlian naturally has no need to stay any longer.
So he simply called Lin Yan back and left Li Kaiming's home.
He didn't care about what happened after that. He had tried his best to help the Basketball Association contact Li Kaiming, and that was just out of his love for the Chinese men's basketball team.
Now that his task has been completed, since Lin Yan and the others chose to break up with Li Kaiming, there is no need for Yi Jianlian to stand in the middle and be the doormat.
There was another team training this afternoon. Li Kaiming drove directly to the home court after eating. Tomorrow they will face the Portland Trail Blazers at home, so necessary tactical drills are still required.
In the hotel where Lin Yan was staying, in addition to Zhang Yu, there was another member with an ugly face at the moment, and that was the proud Minister Lin.
At this moment, his face was livid, and his eyes were full of madness!
"You bastard! Shame on your face! Do you really think you've turned from a pheasant into a phoenix after you've made a name for yourself in the NBA?"
Zhang Yu also added fuel to the fire, "I think this Li Kaiming is arrogant and domineering and is not suitable for joining our national team at all!"
As soon as Zhang Yu said this, Lin Yan's expression suddenly froze. What Liang Zhen said to him before leaving appeared in his mind.
"Old Lin, when I go to America this time, I must take Li Kaiming down. Our men's basketball team may depend on him in the future..."
People like Zhang Yu definitely didn't know Liang Zhen's instructions, but Lin Yan could tell from Liang Zhen's tone that the latter valued Li Kaiming!
Liang Zhen secured this opportunity for their Foreign Affairs Department. If they couldn't even complete their tasks, would the Foreign Affairs Department soon become a loser in the Sports Bureau?
Will Liang Zhen still trust him in the future?
Under Zhang Yu's stimulation, Lin Yan suddenly regained some sense.
With a click of his tongue, he stretched out his hand to interrupt Zhang Yu's words, "Xiaoyu, this Li Kaiming can't give up yet!"
Zhang Yu immediately became anxious, "Why? Uncle Lin, if this guy joins the national team, how can he bring disaster to the national team?"
Lin Yan returned to his previous demeanor of a worldly expert, and coughed lightly, "Director Liang said that this person must be naturalized..."
When he heard that it was Director Liang's order, even Zhang Yu was stunned. Of course he knew what Director Liang's words meant in the Chinese sports system, especially not long ago when Liang Zhen defeated Han Yinzhi in person, and now his prestige is at its peak. !
However, as the most evil person in this room, Zhang Yu came up with another way to take revenge in a blink of an eye.
"Uncle Lin, let's do this. Let's follow what Director Liang said and naturalize this guy named Li. After he joins the national team, no matter how good he is by then, he will not be like a fish on the chopping board. Shall we slaughter? In this way, we not only complete the task assigned by Director Liang, but also regain your face, killing two birds with one stone!"
Lin Yan's eyes lit up when he heard this, he patted his thigh with his hand and cheered!
"What a great idea! I really saw you right, kid. There are so many weird ways! Just do as you say!"
After deciding on the plan, Lin Yan immediately asked for Li Kaiming's contact information from Zhang Yu, and then made a call.
At this time, Li Kaiming had just returned home from training. He heard the ringtone of his cell phone and picked up the phone.
"Hello, who are you looking for?"
"Are you Li Kaiming?" Opposite was the voice of a middle-aged man, speaking with an authentic Huadu accent, speaking in a condescending tone, which made Li Kaiming frown upon hearing this.
"I am, may I ask you?"
Lin Yan chuckled, "I am Lin Yan, the director of the Foreign Affairs Department of the Huaguo Sports Bureau. Our people have contacted you before, but there seems to be a small misunderstanding. Now we have confirmed it and the misunderstanding has been resolved!" "
Li Kaiming wondered, was the misunderstanding resolved?When did you apologize to me?I do not know how.
So he asked, "Minister Lin, I'm not sure how this misunderstanding was resolved. Can you explain it to me in detail?"
Lin Yan's expression on the other end of the phone changed, and the smile on his face immediately turned cold. "The misunderstanding is resolved. What else do you need to explain?"
As a superior person, Lin Yan usually as long as he speaks in a slightly harsher tone, the people below him will remain silent and dare not even breathe.
Now facing Li Kaiming's questioning, he habitually used this skill.
It's a pity that Li Kaiming, who grew up in America, didn't understand these ways of the world, and when he heard the tone of the other party changed, he naturally didn't give them a good face.
"What do you mean, you said it was lifted? Who are you? Let the little brat who called me in the middle of the night last night apologize to me, otherwise I will never be done with him!"
After speaking, Li Kaiming hung up the phone directly.
Lin Yan in the hotel listened to the busy signal from his mobile phone and froze in place!
Humiliation, shock, confusion...
All kinds of complicated feelings rushed into his heart, and Lin Yan couldn't react for a while.
No one has dared to talk to him like this since he took up the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs.
But today he was pointed at his nose and scolded him as an onion, and he was still a young man under 20 years old!
Lin Yan was in a daze for a moment. What happened to this world?Why did it suddenly become different from before?
Zhang Yu, who was standing next to him, turned pale with anger. He was just listening and was scolded by Li Kaiming again as a little brat!
He now has the intention to kill Li Kaiming!
"I won't be able to tell for a while. Send me your home address and I'll find you!"
Although Li Kaiming is generally not very good at judging other people's tone, he still heard a sigh from Yi Jianlian's voice.
After hanging up the phone, Li Kaiming sent the address, and within an hour, the doorbell rang.
