Chapter 36: Li Liang's ambition

　　After reaching an agreement with Ryan West, Li Liang returned to the PNY Center in the afternoon and told Max that he wanted to withdraw from the afternoon training.
　　 This afternoon's trial content is mainly shooting training and tactical joint training, and then there will be a confrontation game tomorrow morning. After completing a psychological test in the afternoon, it is over.
　　Max was busy coordinating affairs in the morning and did not care too much about Li Liang's performance.
　　He thought that after Liang Liang's trial training in the morning, he realized that his ability was not enough to gain a foothold in the NBA, so he withdrew.
　　Max patted Li Liang's shoulder and said, "It doesn't matter, everyone should find their own way."
　　Li Liang knew that Max had misunderstood and said nothing, but thanked him and left.
　　 Not long after Li Liang left, several scouts found that Li Liang was absent from the rookie team before the afternoon training began.
　　 They found Max and asked Li Liang about the situation.
　　 "Bruce-Lee? He has left and quit trial training. He seems to have a more accurate understanding of himself."
　　 "Oh, damn, it must have been the first person." These few scouts knew that someone must have contacted Li Liang and asked him to withdraw from the training camp and go to the team for a trial training.
　　 These people shook their heads helplessly and comforted themselves, but they were just a small defensive forward with a good defensive ability. They were still Chinese, and it was no big deal.
　　 Indeed, they soon left Li Liang behind and put their energy on other rookies.
　　After all, they just think that Li Liang has potential to be tapped, but he has not reached the point where he has to choose him.
　　 If you lose this opportunity, you will lose it.
　　After leaving the PNY Center, Li Liang and Wei Dazhi drove back to Zhu Shu’s apartment in Queens.
On the way, Wei Dazhi still couldn't hide his excitement. While dreaming of Li Liang's situation after going to the Los Angeles Lakers, he was planning his own reporter's route.
　　 Faced with the noisy Wei Dazhi, Li Liang said nothing but kept his head up to see the scenery.
　　 He is still weighing whether he exits the training camp and chooses whether the Lakers trial training is safe, of course there are risks, but to say that the Los Angeles Lakers are not attractive, it must be deceiving.
　　 Passing through Manhattan, the car passed by Madison Square Garden.
　　Li Liang saw the famous round gymnasium and thought, one month later, he must be on the NBA stage here.
　　 Back to the apartment loft in Queens, Li Liang saw Bai Xiaoting's car parked downstairs.
　　 Zhu Shu and Bai Xiaoting are back. They are packing things in the room. They are surprised to see Li Liang and Wei Dazhi come back.
　　 "Did you not go to the training camp? Why, failed, was eliminated?" Bai Xiaoting asked.
　　 "Huh, Dazhi, tell them both, why do we come back early."
Wei Dazhi proudly said: "Cough, after a wonderful performance in the morning, Gan Liliang...No, Mr. Bruce Lee has successfully impressed the famous scout of the famous NBA team Los Angeles Lakers, the famous NBA star Jerry- The son of West! Who is that... Hey, Li Liang, what is the name of the scout?"
　　 "Ryan West!"
　　 "Yes, Ryan West's attention, and then successfully received the Los Angeles Lakers trial training invitation, as a condition, he will withdraw from this rookie training camp, so we will come back."
　　Wei Dazhi was complacent, as if he was the one who tried it out.
　　Bai Xiaoting listened, snorted, and didn't speak again.
　　 Zhu Shu was a little surprised and congratulated Li Liang on getting the chance to try out.
　　It can be seen from her expression that she is sincere.
　　Li Liang asked, "Then what are you doing, do you want to move away after packing?"
Zhu Shu's expression dimmed and said, "Well, my house is a short-term rental. I wanted to try to find out if I could find a suitable job. Now it seems that it will not work. So I am going to move to Aunt Xiaoting's house temporarily I'll plan for the next step later."
　　Li Liang said: "No, you don't need to go to Aunt Bai Xiaoting's house, you will follow me from now on. From now on, you will be my agent."
　　 Zhu Shu showed an incredible expression, Bai Xiaoting said: "Li Liang, don't joke, Zhu Shu didn't promise you yesterday, let's say you weren't selected, it's just a trial training."
　　Li Liangdao said: "I have mentioned it more than once, is this kidding joke interesting?"
　　 Zhu Shu was a little embarrassed and said, "But Li Liang, I don't know anything about working with NBA agents."
Li Liangdao said: "You can learn it if you don't understand it. It's not difficult to learn. Can you understand the legal text? Can you communicate with others? You are studying accounting, but I know that you have always wanted to take the graduate school of law. Those of law Most of them are much more complicated than NBA contracts and terms."
　　Li Liang did not make Zhu Shu an agent on a whim, he had his considerations and ideas.
　　In terms of personality, Zhu Shu is more introverted, not good at communicating with people, and is still a girl.
　　 doesn't look like a sports agent at all.
　　 is Wei Dazhi, who seems to have the potential of a broker.
　　Li Liang didn't think so.
　　Li Liang wanted an exclusive agent, he didn’t want to waste too much time and energy on signing the contract.
　　General brokers will toss about small mosquito meat like Li Liang for that commission, Li Liang does not need it.
　　Wei Dazhi is a lively and sociable person who is a good reporter.
　　 But if he is Li Liang’s agent, let’s not say that his ability to see professional English legal terms is not enough. His character, which is easily influenced and controlled by others, can make Li Liang annoying.
　　 Zhu Shu On the contrary, the novice, from scratch, will encounter some trouble, but will never toss Li Liang.
　　With her learning ability and legal and financial knowledge background, it is easy to talk about contracts.
　　 Next, Li Liang exchanged more ideas with Zhu Shu, telling her that the NBA is not without female agents, and female agents can also succeed.
　　Li Liang's words were very confusing, and Zhu Shu was shaken a little.
At this time, Bai Xiaoting stood up and said, "Then what benefits does it make you have Zhu Shu as your agent? Zhu Shu has no experience, you don't necessarily enter the NBA, don't you find an experienced person? 'S agent will help you?"
　　Bai Xiaoting's question mentioned the idea, and Ke Mi also knows the ball.
Li Liangdao: "Yes, let Zhu Shu be my agent. In the short term, it is really not good, or even not good. But in the long run, I need an agent like her, and Wei Dazhi like this. Media friends."
　　Bai Xiaoting said: "I don't understand."
　　Li Liangdao said: "Bai Xiaoting, I ask you, your aunt lives in the rich area of ​​Long Island, does it really become the upper class of New York?"
　　Li Liang's words made Bai Xiaoting fall into silence.
　　Her aunt and uncle have been engaged in the financial and advertising industries for many years. They share dividends and earn millions of dollars each year. They are regarded as successful people among Chinese in the United States.
　　 Their villa on Long Island is worth tens of millions of dollars, and the living conditions are quite rich.
　　But Bai Xiaoting knows that in Long Island, aunts and uncles are not really upper class.
　　 The real upper class is a political family in New England, a tech upstart on the west coast, an industrial trust in the middle, and an old farmer in the south.
　　 Chinese people with yellow skin and black hair, if they do well in the United States, they deserve the title of "rich man".
　　 is like the great Gatsby, at the end just a nouveau riche.
　　 "So what do you mean, do you want to be a real aristocrat in America?" Bai Xiaoting asked.
"Of course not. I have no interest in the aristocracy. I just hope that by my side, my countrymen and friends can do something, have a better life, and have something worth mentioning. The NBA is a I can change the fate of people, so can you.
　　I know that there are retreats behind us. I can sell tractors with my dad. Zhu Shu and Wei Dazhi can go back to China to find a good job. Bai Xiaoting, you don't need to say. But a retreat is a retreat. If a person does not want to go forward, how can he retreat? Who wants to retreat without further thinking?
　　 I don’t know what will happen in the future, but I know that I’m going to go down this road, and it’s not enough to rely on me alone. I need partners, I need friends, I need people like you who trust me and I trust. "
　　Li Liang stood in the middle of the attic. His eyes were burning, and when he said these words, the whole person seemed to exude a layer of brilliance.
　　 That is the brilliance of idealists and the light of ambition.
　　 Of course, it is also wrapped in a strong desire to live without a tractor.
　　Li Liang showed his uniqueness, making the three feel a little strange.
　　 They looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while.
　　 As a young man who still has an ideal for life, Li Liang's words really touched his heart.
　　 A good life, a leap in class, belongs to one's own upper circle, which young people who just entered the society do not yearn for?
　　 It's just that this society is very cruel. For many people, the end of their runway is just the starting line for some people.
　　The same is true in the United States, and it is even more serious.
　　 Want to break through this barrier, there are so few narrow passages.
　　 Professional sports is undoubtedly one of them.
　　 Several of them do have a retreat, but as Li Liang said, who is thinking about not going further, he is ready to retreat?
　　 Even the most incompetent and weak people have dreamed of fragile and beautiful success.
Wei Dazhi, as a friend of Li Liang, was immediately moved, saying: "You are right, Chinese people always have a ceiling in the United States, why, because the Chinese are not united! Why do those Indians pull together to form a group, we The Chinese are always said that a person is a dragon, a group of people is a worm. Look at those black players, find their buddies and friends as agents, and do tide record recordings. Why can't we Chinese!"
　　Wei Dazhi is right, many black players in the NBA have been selected, and they are all alone.
　　The friends around them have stepped into the sports circle, and they are managers, businessmen, and pure socialists who eat, drink, and play.
　　 Anyway, relying on the NBA, they are out of poverty and out of the bottom of society.
　　 They hold groups to keep warm and use the influence of the NBA to make themselves live a better life.
　　 And most Chinese people always seem to be working diligently and hard-working, saving a little family, but they are inevitably bullied.
　　 "The Chinese are not united, the Chinese are good at fighting," such a label is hard for even the Chinese themselves to deny.
　　 Not all Chinese and Chinese think and do this.
　　 Many of them love their countrymen and their native land.
　　This is the case with Li Liang. During his four years at the University of Kentucky, he never avoided his identity as a Chinese student.
　　 Especially on the basketball court, he always takes the initiative to tell people that he is Chinese.
　　 Chinese people are also very good at playing basketball. Starting from Wang Zhizhi, Battle, Yao Ming, Yi Jianlian, Sun Yue, and Chinese Lin Shuhao, they all proved themselves in the game.
　　Li Liang believes that he can be the next one, and is an excellent one.
"That's right, we should unite. You have to trust me, and you have to believe in yourself. Moreover, being my agent is very easy. The income is not low, the time is free, the workload is small, and there is no delay. You play a game. There is no better job in the world than that. How about it, promise me." Li Liang looked at Zhu Shu with a scorching eye, and after finishing his ideals, he began to seduce her with treatment.
　　 Zhu Shu sorted out her mood, but in fact she was already convinced.
　　Although it is a good choice to go to Bai Xiaoting's aunt's house~EbookFREE.me~, it is after all.
　　 now has such an opportunity, it seems very unreliable, but she is willing to believe Li Liang.
　　 Zhu Shu trusted Li Liang, and since that dance was led by him, he trusted him very much.
　　 Zhu Shu nodded vigorously and said, "Okay, I promise you to be your agent."
　　 "Okay! Yes! Great!"
　　Li Liangjian persuaded Zhu Shu, feeling that he had taken another step toward the goal.
　　Wei Dazhi and Zhu Shu seemed very happy, only Bai Xiaoting was silent in the side.
　　Li Liang said to Bai Xiaoting: "Hey Bai Xiaoting, how about if you quit your advertising company's job and help me advertise specifically?"
Bai Xiaoting sneered coldly: "Don't be too happy to be in the NBA, you don't have to leave a word, who knows what will happen? Besides, can you afford my salary? And my daily expenses? Where do I live? Ah? Where do I work? How do I sign a contract with you? Besides, can you play on the basketball court for a few years? Can you guarantee my long career?"
　　Li Liang was speechless by Bai Xiaoting and could only give a thumbs up and said, "I see it, this is professional!"
　　In fact, these issues have been considered by Li Liang, but everything has to be considered after he is elected at the draft conference and the contract is signed.
　　 "Bai Xiaoting, wait for me to sign the contract. If you don't want to do it in an advertising company, come to me. I will let you do something."
　　 "You bragging! Make you want to be president, like the cabinet, all began to be kings and lords..."
　　 Bai Xiaoting's sarcasm, but suddenly hit Li Liang.
　　 He frowned, remembering an important thing in his heart: "Yes, President, I'm going to see the President! I almost forgot about it!"
