February in California is like a child's face, and it changes when it changes.
In the afternoon, it was still blue sky and sky, and suddenly it fell dark in the evening, and the murky clouds piled up in the air, depressing those who hurried away.
Li Zhen lay on the sofa of a small apartment in the southwestern district of Palo Alto. His handsome and white face was full of exhaustion and panic.
He just woke up from a long nightmare.
He dreamed of the rest of his life.
The trajectory of the dream is: After he transferred from Stanford to Harvard again, he was laughed at by many people. Under great pressure, he gave up his studies and set about building a social networking site like his friend Zuckerberg. But the result was that the company burned its savings of one million dollars.
He failed to start a business and chose to return to the Bay Area and enter an Internet company. As a result, because of the company's internal struggle and the failure of parents to return to China to do business, they caused themselves to return to the country from the United States. In a big and small Internet company, lingering for years, day after day, year after year: this is by no means the life he wants, because he doesn't even have a girlfriend.
It's terrible!
Li Zhen vigorously rubbed his already bad hair.
He knew it was because he was under too much pressure recently.
Was it really a mistake to transfer from Harvard University to Stanford six months ago? My basketball dream is just like what my mother said: is it a joke at all? ?
Li Zhen sighed helplessly.
As the only four-star Chinese point guard in the history of American high school basketball, he was very confident before transferring to the Pacific Division. When he was studying at Harvard, he was once the assisting and stealing king of the Ivy League: but it was only later that he discovered that the Ivy League was completely incomparable to other leagues in ncaa. The highest academic level in the world represented by the Ivy League, not the level of sports.
He climbed up slightly and reached out to turn on the TV. The Chinese channel on the TV just happened to play the basketball park.
"... Michael Jordan, the basketball god, stepped into the marriage hall with his wife Juanita in 1989 and raised a son and a daughter afterwards, but Juanita filed for divorce in 2002. The reason she gave was" Unbearable " Michael stolen again and again, and there was an irreconcilable contradiction between the two sides. "For this reason, she even wrote a six-page divorce litigation document."
"But due to the property and compensation relationship, the flying man's divorce case took 4 years. Yesterday, the two parties finally reached an out-of-court settlement agreement. It is rumored that Michael will therefore pay up to 168 million breakup fees for his ex-wife! This is one of the most expensive divorce breakup fees in sports history ... "
Scum!
Li Zhen murmured subconsciously.
Ok?
Suddenly this sentence made him strange and familiar ... the word seemed to be brought out of a nightmare.
He shook his head.
News on TV is still being broadcast.
"... This morning, we interviewed Stanford coach McHani. Because two main players have been injured this season, in the remaining three division games, the chance of the red team rushing out of the Pacific Division is almost zero. So He regretted to announce that the focus of the team ’s work this season will shift from fighting for the top 64 seats to signing for the new season. In addition, we interviewed him about the topic of Chinese defender Li Zhen. "
As soon as the picture changed, Coach McHani appeared in front of the camera.
McHani used to be a long-time assistant coach in the NBA Lakers, and made contributions to the Lakers dynasty. Three years ago, he began to take charge of the crimson red team, and in the 2004 season helped the team to reach the ncaa16.
At that time, the team ace Childress also entered the NBA as a lottery show with the outstanding performance of the top 64: this is one of the few NBA players at Stanford.
"Bruce is a smart, enthusiastic, cautious and very hard-working player. His ball control ability is the strongest and most incredible I have ever seen. He has amazing creativity and talent, just like his gpa results. At the training ground In fact, he often makes wonderful assists that make all the players jump up and applaud. "
"However, we must admit. His body can't match his mind. Compared to other players, he is too thin. Although he has a height of 1.86 meters, he is only 68 kg, which is why I can't make it. The reason why he stayed on the court for a long time. "
"In the last three games, I will give him some opportunities. But next season ... um. You know, less than sixteen years old can be admitted to Harvard with a super smart brain, he should focus on his studies, he must Can achieve achievements that shock the world ... "
Snapped!
Li Zhen turned off the TV.
For him, he was not hesitant to hit once.
He has been desperate to play basketball. At first, he disregarded his parents' objection to transfer from Harvard to Stanford, which angered the powerful mother. Ms. Wang Junzhu, a professor of biology at New York University, said very angry that if Li Zhen did not return to Harvard and chose a life science major, she would refuse to Really pay any tuition and living expenses.
At that time, Li Zhen, who was playing invincible opponents of Ivy League, was full of ambition. He thought that he could completely rely on his own abilities to fight the sky without his parents.
But now ... oh!
With the red team no longer giving him registered players next season, he cannot continue to enjoy the high cost of living subsidies from the school.
Over the years, although he has saved some money for New Year's Eve, and earned almost $ 150,000 through scholarships, competition awards, and web development, he has all invested in the website created by Zuckerberg. It's less than US $ 1,500, and the rent will be paid next month.
and so…
Really can only bow his head to admit his mistake, and go home obediently as a rich second generation?
Ding Dong!
At this time, a voice came from the laptop next to the sofa, an email from Zuckerberg.
He opened it and said, "Dear Li Zhen, are you sure you want to transfer the preferential equity of US $ 150,000 or 12% of the previous angel investment to us? Now Mr. Peter Thiel of Paypal And several other investors are willing to invest in us as individuals, and their investment amount will reach the tens of millions of US dollars. If you want, we can transfer your shares now, according to the current valuation of about one hundred and ninety Millions of dollars. But I do n’t recommend that you do that. Know that you own preferred stock. "
Zuckerberg's guy is very gentle, and Li Zhen has a very good relationship with him.
Li Zhen likes this introverted guy very much. He also has a pretty Chinese girlfriend. This creates more common topics for their getting along.
But now that he is really embarrassed, he must cash out these shares.
But as he prepared to type yes in the email reply, he suddenly remembered that in the dream he had just done, all he did was convert all the shares into cash, pay full taxes, and return to Harvard to start a business. Unfortunately, his entrepreneurial success was unsuccessful, and the money was quickly spent.
Bang! !
There was a sudden thunder and thunder outside, and a pair of aj shoes he hung on the balcony were blown over by the wind.
This scene made him more familiar.
Because this is the beginning of that long nightmare.
In that nightmare, he ignored the basketball shoes in the storm, he thought his basketball dream was completely broken. So, bow your head and reply to the email on your notebook: yes! All sold.
But now, he looked up inexplicably and looked at the sky outside. Under the dim light, layers of clouds piled up, and each of the clouds seemed to be inlaid with gold rims, which was very beautiful.
So, the sun is shining behind the dark clouds, right?
Li Zhen lowered his head and pondered for a while, then the ghostly walked over.
That was the first pair of aj in his life, generation aj. This was the shoe Michael wore when he announced ‘i’m-bak’.
When he grabbed the sneakers on the balcony with his hands, suddenly there was a bright light in front of him, and the fiercest white lightning instantly enveloped him.
Bang!
He felt a violent impact, and then pain filled every cell in the whole body.
Fall to the ground.
And in the moment when he had a trace of consciousness.
He heard an echo in his head: "Hee hee, he finally escaped from the demon's body."
"I haven't disappeared? Has time cracked?"
"I can speak. I speak English?"
"Twenty percent of the energy remains, and you can't completely transform your body. You can only improve one of strength, speed, bounce, agility, and body shape ..."
"..."
...
