Chapter 60: ： 【Chinese Light Blues】

Yang Zhengyao is the chief correspondent stationed in Houston on CCTV Sports Channel. He has been responsible for tracking the news of Yao Can.
Just the day before yesterday, he came to Los Angeles with the Houston Rockets.
Leaders attach great importance to the game between the Rockets and the Lakers because ... Yao Yao, McGrady and Kobe are the most popular nba superstars in China. Every time their game will trigger a climax of ratings.
However, the game ended in a hasty play, Yao Huang was injured in the first quarter, and then McGrady also left with a back spasm in the third game.
The Rockets' disastrous defeat made domestic fans quite uncomfortable. Even the chief reporter listened to a lot of gossip. In the next half month, Yao Can truce. There was not so much news sent to China. This is about performance!
at this time.
Emperor Tian is not disheartened.
When he was tossing about his hotel in Los Angeles, the Chinese Channel of California actually saw a Chinese face: the player named Bruce Lee was attacked by the most important ncaa league in the United States. Create a miracle, now has led the team to the sweet sixteen, this is an unprecedented achievement.
The Chinese channel boasted him as a superhero of the yellow race.
This ignited his infinite curiosity.
He hurried to follow Li Zhen News when all the messages spread out in front of him.
He was shocked: he was born in a family of professors and was admitted to Harvard University, the world's top university, at the age of 16, and then transferred to Stanford to pursue the basketball dream. After sitting on the cold bench for two years and being publicly given up by the head coach, he seized the last opportunity and teamed up with Chinese assistant Jamie Lin to create the greatest counterattack in the history of ncaa, and it continues.
The most important thing is that even Michael Jordan is on his side to endorse him, saying that his future must have a place in NBA, and that he is most like himself when he was young.
American fans are now discussing him every day, and the heat has exceeded some of the NBA superstars.
No, we must let domestic fans know that we not only have a super center in the United States, but also a young small guard who is rising in the American basketball world.
As a full patriot, Yang Zhengyao is very uncomfortable with some of the domestic Yao Hei and some Mu Yang dogs. They always say that the Chinese are not good. What Yao Yao said is just about height. What's more, Yao said that if it is not the Chinese market, it is impossible to gain a foothold in nba. These self-deprecating identities make Yang Zhengyao very angry.
Therefore, he quickly reported to domestic leaders and applied for an interview opportunity with Stanford University.
The leaders agreed with the interview, but ... there are still some doubts.
However, this doubt was dispelled when Yang Zhengyao saw Li Zhen first.
At that time, Li Zhen, who was soaked in sweat, took the initiative to walk over, his handsome face with a bright smile, and then said: "Hello!"
This made Yang Zhengyao stunned. He subconsciously said, "Do you speak Chinese?"
"A little more Hangzhou dialect and Minnan dialect." Li Zhen said with a smile in dialect: "My father is from Zhejiang, my mother is from Fujian."
amount….
This made Yang Zhengyao even more surprised. He turned around and found that the camera was already working.
"Actually, I am Chinese. Although I was born in the United States, I gave up my American citizenship when I was 18 last year." Li Zhen told Yang Zhengyao very frankly.
When Yang Zhengyao heard this sentence, a huge surprise arose.
The biggest concern between him and his leaders is actually the issue of national identity. They are worried that they are facing a yellow-skinned banana man.
However, Li Zhen speaks fluent Mandarin, and also speaks Hangzhou and Minnan dialects as standard. This is obviously an authentic Chinese. And ... he also said he voluntarily renounced US citizenship last year, and sending this report back will definitely cause heated debate!
This is great!
Yang Zhengyao even began to imagine the scenes of the Beijing Olympics the following year, Yao Can and Li Zhen standing on the court at the same time to play for the country.
After a while, Jamie Lin also came over.
Jamie Lin also speaks some Chinese. He is a third generation Chinese who grew up in San Francisco. Therefore, when it comes to journalists from China, they are always very kind.
Then, it was natural to talk about the ncaa miracle set off by the two Chinese. He asked Jamielin: "From the unknown to the current sensation in the United States, what is your biggest feeling?"
"In the face of you, I do n’t want to say those high-sounding words. I must frankly say that this is very difficult. Whether it is me or Li Zhen, we have to put in more effort than others. Here, whether it is white or black They do n’t approve of yellow-skinned basketball workers, and they have a natural contempt. Even if you put in double effort, it ’s still hard to be recognized.

"And the reason we can stand here is because our efforts are far more than others. Since taking over the game, I have never slept more than 5 hours a day. And Li Zhen, you can hardly see it during the day. The jersey on him is dry. He has been sweating and has been training. "
Only when she speaks Chinese can Jamielin vent her distress.
At this time, Li Zhen smiled. He patted Jamie Lin on the shoulder, and then said to Yang Zhengyao: "Pinch off and don't broadcast, there is no need to render these things."
Li Zhen is a cheerful person.
Despite all the way, his critical eyes and exclusion are unimaginable. But ... this is over. Those who once said that he can't do that or that can't do now may be hiding in the corner of a room and striking the keyboard hard, saying something like 'I taught him at 11: 0 in seventh grade.
Li Zhen is a person looking forward.
He likes to knock down those who despise, and then clenches his fists to a higher peak.
Yang Zhengyao began to ask other questions, such as Li Zhen, how did he feel when he scored the goal at the University of Oregon?
When Michael Jordan took the initiative to shake hands and said those words, what did he think deep down?
And ... do you think the team will continue to work wonders? Can you beat ucla?
These are all problems of standardization, and they have the style of CCTV.
And Li Zhen is stable. As a young genius who can be admitted to Harvard University, although he is not good at speaking, he is more than enough to deal with these preliminary problems.
The interview was very pleasant.
Everyone is very happy.
For Yang Zhengyao, he can't wait to send this video back to China. He believes that the Chinese defender who has set off a wave of concern among American fans will surely set off a greater wave of public opinion on the land of China.
Moreover, if he can successfully enter the nba next, then ... he may even become a symbol of Chinese basketball on a par with Yao Can.
The influence may be even greater.
After all, Yao Can is a super center. His height and his play doomed him to be unable to play with the widest range of fans: very few children will imitate Yao Man ’s play on the wild court. Everyone likes Kobe and everyone likes it. McGrady, I like Iverson.
This is natural.
"I'm very optimistic about you! Come on!"
Yang Zhengyao did not forget to hand in his business card after the interview. He also expressed his desire to have dinner with Li Zhen, but Li Zhen was too busy training. During their interview, Nick Young broke into the camera more than once and urged Li Zhen to hurry up and single out with gestures.
The star player of the University of Southern California is very expressive, and he can't understand Chinese. He made the "black question mark" expression on the camera many times, which is very interesting.
