The Strongest Bishop in the NBA

Chapter 216 Training Camp Like a Draft Contest

Due to the unimaginable expansion of the scale, the entire selection process takes nearly one month, and one month later, at the end of August, 100 young players selected from across the country will also come to the capital.

Wang Xiao arrived here half a month in advance, mainly because he wanted to step on the spot in advance to see how the conditions of the training hall provided by Li-Ning Sports were.

The venue they provided was the Li-Ning Center in the capital, which is the headquarters of the Li-Ning Company, and it is also a large-scale gymnasium, complete with swimming pool, basketball hall, badminton hall, table tennis hall, and even an NBA-standard basketball court. There are three yuan, and even considering the reason why Wang Xiao is training in the United States, he even bought a batch of training equipment used by the NBA.

At least from Wang Xiao's point of view, there was nothing wrong with it.

...

In fact, no matter how large the scale and how scientifically rigorous the training is, it is only a superficial cover.

Wang Xiao doesn't believe that ordinary people can make their dreams come true through hard training. Talent is a real thing.

Even in the NBA, where there are often second-round picks and undrafted picks, talent is still a topic that can never be avoided.

Even the representatives of inspirational figures, the second-round pick Gilberd Arenas, the undrafted Ben Wallace, and Jimmy Butler who was selected by Wang Xiao this year, their so-called mediocre talents are compared to those in the NBA. As far as geniuses are concerned, in fact, compared with most ordinary people, their talents can reach the level of crushing.

Wang Xiao doesn't think that NBA-level talents can be found in China. After all, even in 2019, there is no Chinese player who is qualified enough to enter the NBA. Even Zhou Qi, who is the closest to success, is still a little bit short.

This is true in 2019 when the youth training is already very complete, let alone now in 2011?

What Wang Xiao really needs to look for is only players who are suitable for using the two growth template cards in his hand.

And such a condition is actually very simple, first, enough love for basketball.

Second, have a competitive heart and be full of desire for victory.

Third, be able to strictly discipline yourself, not to be lazy during training, and not to mess around in private leisure time.

The fourth and most important point is to have a grateful heart, whether it is to her family or to those who have helped her.

Wang Xiao didn't want to cultivate a 25-year-old kid like Deron Williams, who would turn against him over trivial matters in the end.

Wang Xiao's request is only these, but on the surface he can't say it directly. After all, things involving the system must not be sloppy. This is his biggest secret.

Therefore, in terms of audition conditions, Wang Xiao set a lot of requirements, for example, the age must be between 14 and 18 years old, and the height must not be less than 1.9 meters. At the same time, there are certain restrictions on data such as weight and body fat percentage. Require.

This is a matter of course. Wang Xiao’s third requirement is strict self-discipline. If you are really a basketball fan and hope to become a professional basketball player, then you must have already started to receive preliminary training at this age, even if you have not received systematic professional training. In training, it is impossible to be overweight, otherwise why is it called strict self-discipline.

Wang Xiao believes that among the 100 most talented and potential children screened out across the country, players who meet these conditions will definitely be found. Wang Xiao plans to select two players from them, use growth template cards for them, and then bring Go to the United States to receive systematic and professional training as his future talent reserve.

On the other side of the United States, Wang Xiao had already made an agreement with Jack, the head coach of Harvard University at the time, that they could be recruited through special sports recruitment.

Harvard University did not have such a special enrollment before. For sports, Harvard University has never paid special attention to it. They care more about cultural and academic honors.

However, during the years when Wang Xiao served as the head coach of Harvard University, Harvard University ushered in unprecedented glory. It not only broke the history of more than 50 years, but also won the NCAA championship.

This made the top executives of Harvard University very happy. After all, Harvard University has become accustomed to receiving honors in academics. On the contrary, outstanding breakthroughs in sports can highlight its achievements.

Last summer, as Jeremy Lin and Dunn participated in the draft, Harvard University immediately fell into a situation of starvation. Even if Jack tried his best, he failed to make Harvard University stand out from the Ivy League for the fifth consecutive year and enter the NCAA tournament. The championship stopped at two consecutive championships.

The poor record made Harvard University's board of directors discuss the proposal to add basketball bursaries, and received a majority of the votes.

Harvard University's basketball sports bursary is officially launched, but even so, their enrollment is still difficult. After all, it is still difficult to apply for Harvard University, especially for those children who put most of their minds on basketball training.

When Wang Xiao mentioned this matter to Jack, Jack immediately reported it to the chairman of the sports association.

Two Huaxia players favored by Wang Xiao can be invited to Harvard University in the name of exchange students. Although this is not allowed in terms of rules, the world has never lacked people who break or change the rules.

The Huaxia players that Wang Xiao is optimistic about are very likely to be the next Jeremy Lin, the next Dunn, the kind of genius who can directly improve the strength of the Harvard school team. How could they refuse in this situation?

At the same time, Wang Xiao was still thinking about whether he could ask Dayao to help the two players he selected to join the national team.

What Wang Xiao was referring to was the official national team, not the soy sauce role of the youth national team or the national team training team.

Once the growth template card is used, the talent and strength of the two players selected by him will be as fast as a rocket, and they may surpass most of the main players of the national team within a few months, and they are more than enough to be the main players of the national team.

But what he said about this matter didn't count, he guessed that Dayao wouldn't count if what he said, it still depends on the timing and opportunities.

...

Two players were selected from the 100 people. This is Wang Xiao's goal, and the remaining 98 people are not a waste of time.

At least in the past few months, they can also appreciate the advanced training technology from the United States, which will benefit them for life, and the sponsorship of Li Ning Sports is not for nothing. As the most successful sports brand in China, Li Ning Sports Not stupid.

Although the national audition will cost them a lot of manpower and material resources, with the fame of Wang Xiao and Dayao, their popularity in the country has also been greatly improved. At the same time, they also realized that the 100 candidates were selected The players are all the most talented children in China. Even if they are not selected by Wang Xiao, many of them will become the future pillars or even stars of the CBA.

For this reason, Li-Ning Sports also specially hired professional scouts from the United States, independent of Wang Xiao's training system, to specially inspect those children with potential, and then after the training camp, select the 10 most potential and the most outstanding children, and signed a sneaker endorsement contract with them.

Li Ning Sports named this event the New Ten Stars. As the name suggests, these will be the 10 most outstanding players among the 100 players who have passed the national screening.

Seeing this scene, Wang Xiao had to sigh in admiration.

Big manufacturers are worthy of being big manufacturers, and they are full of business opportunities.

At first, Wang Xiao thought about paying for the training camp himself, but they turned the training camp into a talent show like Super Girl and Happy Boys.

As I said before, Wang Xiao is not stubborn. Such hype-like methods may affect the training quality of the training camp, but it will undoubtedly expand his popularity and let more basketball fans know.

For Wang Xiao, it seems that the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

As for whether the so-called cutting-edge ten stars will have any inside stories or dirty PY transactions, that has nothing to do with Wang Xiao. He is in charge of his own selection, and Li Ning is in charge of his draft. If something happens, the dirty water can't be poured on him, the coach of the training camp.

Of course, if someone doesn't know what is good and bad, and tries to meddle in his two places, then I'm sorry. Wang Xiao's generosity in some aspects does not mean that he will give in in all aspects, and it will touch his own vital interests. Xiao never bowed his head.

This can be seen from Wang Xiao's behavior of snatching the trade decision from the general manager of the Wizards and publicly expressing the conditions for coaching the national team.

...

The national audition for Wang Xiao's basketball training camp is in full swing, and Wang Xiao has visited all the places of interest in the capital in the past few days, and he will go to the Li Ning Center when he has nothing to do. Go around twice.

This is not just a gymnasium, but also the office building of Li Ning Company, and even several floors are shops for the sale of Li Ning Sports products.

When Wang Xiao first came, the senior management of Li Ning Company and even Li Ning himself attached great importance to it, and wanted to formally meet and welcome Wang Xiao's arrival.

After all, even though Wang Xiao is now alone and seems to have no connections, he is one of the top head coaches in the United States, which is unprecedented in China.

More importantly, Wang Xiao is still very young, and his future coaching career is still very long. As time goes by, his network and energy will grow stronger and stronger, which is definitely not something anyone can underestimate.

But Wang Xiao declined such a grand welcome.

On the one hand, he wanted to keep a low profile. If Li-Ning Sports made a big fuss and made everyone in the capital know that he was here, how could he visit all the places of interest?

On the other hand, Wang Xiao is still not used to things like banquets and entertainment. It can be said that he can't get on the stage, and it can also be said that he has a low EQ and does not give others face, but this is his character.

In fact, he still believes that it is his coaching ability that determines the strength of a head coach, not his flattering emotional intelligence. As long as he can keep winning in the NBA, he will have a place anywhere.
