Basketball boy, starting to shine from the slam dunk

With these two good examples around him, it was easy for Zhuang Yu to understand what Zhou Zhiming said.

However, if it were some other young people of his age, what Zhou Zhiming said to him would be nonsense. You want me to build a business empire at the age of 23? Many of them have just graduated from college. What can they use to build a so-called business empire?

I don’t even dare to set up a small stall on the street to start a business.

I have to think about setting up a small street stall. If the business is not good, I will lose tens of millions of dollars. It will be painful. It is better to find a class. Although it is like working like a cow or a horse, I can earn a few thousand yuan a month, which is at least enough for me to eat and drink. Isn’t it good to live a heartless life?

Of course, Zhuang Yu is different.

Although he is only 23 years old, the money he has earned and the achievements he has made today are heights that others can never achieve in their lifetime.

For other people, they may never have the worry of having too much money and not knowing how to spend it in their entire life, but Zhuang Yu already has it.

Zhuang Yu asked, "Uncle Zhou, what suggestions do you have?"

Since Zhou Zhiming raised this question, he must have thought about it in advance.

Zhou Zhiming said: "I am not good at this. I suggest you ask Yao Ming and Kobe. They should be able to give you better advice."

Zhuang Yu said, "Well, I just happened to have an appointment with Brother Ming the day after tomorrow, so I'll ask him then."

The two chatted for a while.

At this time, An Xin came over, holding the child.

Seeing the little Nuomi in his arms, Zhou Zhiming immediately laughed: "This is the first time I see a little princess." He took out a small box from his bag, "Here, this is a gift from grandpa."

Although Xiao Nuomi can't speak and can only babble, he wants to grab anything he sees and reaches out to hug the gift. An Xin quickly covers Xiao Nuomi's mouth and explains to Zhou Zhimin awkwardly: "Xiao Nuomi puts everything he grabs into his mouth."

Zhou Zhiming smiled even more kindly.

......

The next day, Zhuang Yu and An Xin came to the Sharks Club together, and the child was left in the care of Xi Juan.

A group of people were already waiting at the door, including General Manager Liu Qun, head coach Ma Yuannan, and some other team staff.

"Boss, Mr. An."

Liu Qun smiled and walked forward to shake hands with Zhuang Yu and An Xin.

Zhuang Yu hasn't been to the club for a long time, and An Xin hasn't been here since she became pregnant. The two haven't seen each other for almost a year.

After some pleasantries, everyone came to the meeting room.

First, I gave a work report on the past year.

In fact, the work report had already been sent to Zhuang Yu's email in the form of a document, and Zhuang Yu had already read it.

But you still need to go through the process, report in person, ask questions in person, answer in person...

“This past season, we…”

Ma Yuenan made a summary report on the past season.

In the past 17-18 season, the Sharks Club's performance was still very good, but it was a pity that they failed to make it to the finals.

At this time last year, Liu Qun and Ma Yuenan both said that their goal for next season was to win the championship. Although they did not achieve this goal, they still gained something in the past year.

First of all, the record.

This season, the Sharks' club record has improved again, and they made it all the way to the semifinals in the playoffs before being eliminated.

The second is the growth of the players in the team, especially the young players, among which the most dazzling one is naturally Xiao Qingyang.

This season, Xiao Qingyang averaged 18.2 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game. Although it was a pity that he was not selected for the All-Star team, he was recruited by the China Men's Basketball Red Team and joined the Red Team training camp this summer.

This is naturally an affirmation of his strength.

"I heard that Xiao Qingyang performed very well in the Red Team and was selected for the Red Team's official roster. He also performed well in the next few games."

Speaking of Xiao Qingyang, Ma Yuannan was all smiles: "He is still very young. I believe he will become even better next season and our lineup will become even stronger."

Zhuang Yu nodded.

Of course he knew about Xiao Qingyang's affairs.

This summer, Xiao Qingyang was recruited by the China Men's Basketball Red Team, entered the Red Team training list, and trained with the Red Team. Finally, he was selected into the Red Team official list with his outstanding performance.

Later, he played a few games with the Red Team and performed well, but perhaps because he had just joined the national team, he still felt a little uncomfortable on the court.

After several games, he averaged 7.2 points, 2.1 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game. The statistics are not very good, but considering his playing time, this answer is already good.

Moreover, he is very active and outstanding on the defensive end, which is often not reflected in the data.

But in the end he was not selected into the 12-man roster of the Chinese men's basketball team for the Asian Games.

Although he was not selected for the Asian Games roster, Xiao Qingyang can be considered a quasi-national team player.

The key is that he is still very young, only 23 years old, and he still has a lot of room for improvement. It can be said that he has a promising future. Ma Yuannan is already ready to add more responsibilities to Xiao Qingyang in the next season and let him serve as the team's third core besides the two foreign players.

Although he is called the third core, he is actually the number two player in the team.

Due to the restrictions of CBA rules, a team's foreign players often need to be used in rotation, so in the next season, Xiao Qingyang will often play the role of the team's No. 2 on the court. This will undoubtedly give him more opportunities and allow him to grow further.

And due to the particularity of CBA, the team is composed of local players and foreign players. So next season Xiao Qingyang will be the core of the local players of the Sharks Club.

Speaking of Xiao Qingyang, Zhuang Yu couldn't help but think of Zhou An.

Zhou An is much luckier than Xiao Qingyang.

At the beginning, Xiao Qingyang went to college, while Zhou An went to Europe. Later, Zhou An directly joined the Chinese men's basketball national team, while Xiao Qingyang is now only in the men's basketball red team.

This time, Zhou An was recruited into the Hua Xia Men's Basketball Blue Team. He trained with the Hua Xia Men's Basketball Team and played several warm-up games.

Just the day before yesterday, the Chinese men's basketball team announced the 12-man roster for the Asian Games men's basketball team, and Zhou An was also selected for the roster.

This in itself is a foregone conclusion.

After all, Zhou An was selected into the 12-man roster of the Chinese men's basketball national team last year. Now that he has been with the Nets for a season and is already an official NBA player, there is no reason for him not to join the national team.

Originally, Zhuang Yu also wanted to meet Zhou An.

However, Zhou An is now busy preparing for the Asian Games with the national team. They will soon go to Jakarta, and they will not be able to see each other until the Asian Games are over.

Zhuang Yu was very satisfied with Ma Yuenan's work in the past year and gave him affirmation. Then he looked at Liu Qun and said, "Mr. Liu."

Liu Qun stood up, and Zhuang Yu waved his hand at him: "No, no, there's no need to do this. Sit down and talk."

Liu Qun agreed and also made a report.

As the general manager of the team, when the boss Zhuang Yu and An Xin are not at the club, he can be said to be the top leader of the club.

But he still knows his limits, he catches those who should be caught and lets go those who should be let go.

For example, he paid close attention to the club's personnel issues and the issues concerning the youth team that Zhuang Yu had assigned to him.

When Zhuang Yu left, he invited coach Yang Guohui to the Sharks Club youth team and asked him to serve as the assistant to the current youth team head coach Zhai Tao. The purpose was to let him replace Zhai Tao as the head coach of the youth team and be in charge of youth training affairs.

Yang Guohui and Zhai Tao are also in this conference room today.

Liu Qun was very strict on personnel issues and the youth training team. Needless to say, he was in charge of personnel matters, but as for the youth training team, he had to suppress Zhai Tao and not delegate power to him. At the same time, he gave part of the power to Yang Guohui so that he could do his job better.

As for the specific work of the team, such as player training, personnel employment, and tactical play, he fully delegated authority to coach Ma Yuenan.

Moreover, even though Zhuang Yu and An Xin were not in the club, he would report to them every once in a while, and would take the initiative to report to them when encountering major events.

Although the club's construction has not made significant progress in the past year, Zhuang Yu is still quite satisfied with Liu Qun's work.

After Liu Qun finished his work report, Zhuang Yu smiled and praised him a few times, then looked at Zhai Tao and said, "Coach Zhai, you can also say something."

"it is good."

Zhai Tao stood up immediately, but did not speak in a hurry. He thought Zhuang Yu would smile and wave at him like he had just done to Liu Qun, and ask him to sit down and talk.

However, it does not.

Zhuang Yu didn't even look up at him. He just called out his name and then looked down at the information in his hand.

This gave Zhai Tao a bad feeling.

In fact, he had a bad feeling before coming here today, because he received a notice before coming here that he was not allowed to come alone, but with Yang Guohui.

As the head coach of the youth training team, why shouldn’t I just attend such meetings myself? Why should I bring Yang Guohui along?

At that time, he thought it was because of the personal relationship between Yang Guohui and Zhuang Yu, and that Zhuang Yu might have specifically requested to bring Yang Guohui along.

Well, there is nothing wrong with that, since Yang Guohui has a background.

But now he began to come to his senses a little.

Of course, work still needs to be reported.

Restraining his inner anxiety and restlessness, Zhai Tao began to give a work report.

Zhuang Yu frowned as he listened to his work report, which was full of high-sounding clichés. If you didn't listen carefully, you would think that he had done an outstanding and wonderful job in the past year. But if you think about it carefully, what he said is all nonsense and not practical.

"It seems that Coach Yang is still too kind-hearted."

Zhuang Yu thought to himself.

Originally, he planned to let Yang Guohui replace Zhai Tao in half a year.

However, Yang Guohui felt that half a year was too short a time, not enough for him to completely take over the work of the youth training team, and not conducive to the subsequent work.

That's why Zhuang Yu has been dragging this matter until now.

Of course, now that he is back, this matter can't be delayed any longer, and Zhai Tao should leave.
