Chapter 2 The Passionate Sandker(1/2)
In just one night, Lin Ri realized that the sound insulation effect of this single room was not very good. He heard some strange sounds one after another in the middle of the night. The sounds did not last long and were just like that every time.
It might not take a few minutes, but it happened seven or eight times in one night. It was not until six or seven in the morning that Lin Ri felt light coming through the window through the undrawn curtains, and then there was no more sound of a woman's moaning.
come over.
Lin Rizhi had a peaceful sleep for about an hour.
Around 8:40, the alarm rang. Lin Ri got up, washed up, and got ready for school. Today was the first day of school, and he had to meet his class teacher and classmates first.
Then he went to head coach Sandeck and showed him his third uncle's letter of recommendation.
"Hey, man, are you the freshman this year? You're so tall!" He was brushing his teeth when a blond-haired "dwarf" squeezed next to him. The "dwarf" was actually not short. He was 1 meter tall no matter what.
He is around 78, which is considered a good height among ordinary people, but standing next to Lin Ri, it is not surprising to call him a "dwarf".
"Are you a new member of the Sun Devils team this year? No, I didn't hear that there are new Chinese players joining the team this year? Man, are you a member of the basketball team?"
This "little man" was very noisy. He talked to himself for a long time, and finally he raised his head and looked at Lin Ridi questioningly.
Lin Ri spat out the mouthwash, wiped the foam from the corners of his mouth with a towel, and first asked, "Are you from room 502?"
Lin Ri's dormitory is on the 5th floor. His single room is 501. Next to 501 is 502.
"Yes!" "Little Man" nodded, thinking of something, with a proud look on his face, "Did I make too much noise last night? Hahaha, there is no way, the capital is too high, did it affect your rest?
I am so sorry."
"Um..." Lin Ri looked at his sunken eye sockets and the very obvious dark circles. Thinking about the fact that each movement lasted only a few minutes, he really couldn't bear to expose it, so he changed the topic and said, "You
Looks like he’s very familiar with the Sun Devils!”
"Of course!" "Little Man" slapped his chest, "I dare say that apart from the guys on the team, I am definitely the person who is most familiar with this team. My girlfriend is a member of the Sun Devil cheerleading team!
"
When he mentioned that his girlfriend was a member of the Sun Devils, the guy's face was obviously more proud, as if this was a very awesome thing.
Think about it, female students who can join the cheerleading team must have good figures and can dance, right?
A girlfriend with this condition can really talk it out and show it off.
However, Lin Ri did not bother with him too much on this topic and asked directly: "Can you take me to the Sun Devils' training facility this afternoon?"
"no problem!"
This is still a warm-hearted person.
…
Lin Ri later exchanged contact information with him and learned his name, Chris Williams, a sophomore studying economics and management.
Then Lin Ri went to the class teacher's office first. The general direction of Lin Ri's exam was economic management. After all, the conditions of his family and the path he wanted to pursue determined that he would definitely have this knowledge in the future, otherwise he would be dismissed by an agent.
People are playing around so much that they don’t even know it.
His third uncle had obviously taken care of his class teacher, Charlie. When he went to find that class teacher, the guy's face was always full of kindness. It seemed that his third uncle also used his "money power" on this guy.
Otherwise, Lin Ri didn't think he could see such a kind head teacher.
Charlie took Lin Ri to their classroom. When Lin Ri entered the classroom, there was a burst of noise in the class. Lin Ri's height made him "shiny" wherever he went. The guys in the classroom also
I never thought that I would have a "giant" classmate, and a "giant" classmate from China.
Some of the blond and blue-eyed female classmates even started to shine in their eyes. Foreign women also value appearance, but at the same time, they also value body shape very much.
Lin Ri's body lines that he has trained for more than a year are obviously their "dish".
Moreover, Lin Rilong is not bad, with three-dimensional facial features and clear outlines. He is the kind of man who looks very masculine at first glance!
Coupled with these muscles, he becomes even more manly!
Anyway, these female classmates can't wait to add Lin Ri's contact information.
Lin Ri ignored the noise caused by him. He has been living in this kind of noise since he was over 1.90 meters tall. It would be strange if he hasn't gotten used to it after so many years!
He found a seat at the back and sat down, then took out his cell phone and made an appointment with Chris Williams to have dinner together at noon. After dinner, he went directly to the training arena.
Charlie had just told him that today was the first day of school, there would be a class meeting and there would be no classes today, and he could arrange the rest of the time freely.
This also allowed Lin Ri to go to Sandek a little earlier.
Although there was a letter of recommendation from his third uncle, and his third uncle also swore his word, there wouldn't be any big problems, but this kind of thing still had to be finalized as soon as possible in order to feel completely at ease. Sandeck couldn't see him nodding.
He was somewhat worried.
Moreover, it is better to complete the system's tasks as soon as possible. He is really eager for the reward after completing that task!
…
Soon, Charlie had finished what he wanted to say. Lin Ri didn't stop for a moment and slipped away through the back door. The moment he went out, he heard several annoyed women's moans.
"Hey, the sun, this way!"
When he arrived at the door of the school cafeteria, Lin Ri didn't see Chris. Chris saw him first and shouted at him with his hands raised.
"Sun" is the nickname Chris gave Lin Ri after he knew the meaning of the Japanese character in Lin Ri's name - this is obviously intentional, after all, the pronunciation of "son" and "sun" are the same.
But sun means the sun, but son means son.
This guy... is so familiar!
However, this guy also knows how to measure himself. When shouting at him outside, he will not just shout "sun", but "the sun". The sun means the sun in spoken language, because there is only one sun, so he must
Add the in front of sun (well, I became an English teacher).
After the two of them had eaten, Chris took Lin Ri to the Sun Devils' training gym. He did not stop making noises along the way: "Sun, you want to play in the NCAA, right? In fact, I am the first
As soon as I saw you, I knew that you absolutely love playing basketball, and I know Yao, your idol must be Yao too, right?"
In fact, many Chinese players have entered the NBA in recent years, including Yao Ming, Wang Zhizhi, Yi Jianlian, and Sun Yue. But Chris, like most foreigners, his first reaction was Yao Ming!
Of course, this is not surprising. Yao Ming is indeed the most successful Chinese player in the NBA. Even if we only look at his peak seasons, he can be said to be one of the most powerful international players.
Lin Ri nodded and admitted: "Of course, Yao is the ultimate goal of all Chinese players."
Chris looked "Sure enough" and said, "Then you must have chosen the Sun Devils because of James Harden, right?"
"Yep!"
Chris actually guessed wrong. At that time, Lin Ri told his third uncle that he hoped to enter a school that was not so strong in basketball but was in the NCAA Division I. As a result, his third uncle arranged for him to go here.
Lin Ri has checked that Arizona State University is not a famous basketball school in the NCAA, and its performance in the NCAA for so many years is not very good. Compared with UCLA, which is also in the Pac-12 Conference, there is a very big gap, and it is a "mortal enemy".
The University of Arizona also has obvious shortcomings.
It can be seen from last year's admissions that talented high school students like Kevin Love and Westbrook all chose UCLA.
It is a school that very much meets Lin Ri’s requirements.
However, Lin Ri didn't want to argue with Chris about why he came to this school. It was pointless.
Chris's face showed a trace of enthusiasm: "This is the right choice, Sun. When you are around a star, the possibility of being exposed is always greater. James is such a star!"
"...Hmm." Lin Ri continued to nod.
He has to admit that in the NCAA, James Harden is indeed a moderate star player, and the entire Arizona State University has indeed received a lot of attention because of his presence.
This is also the reason why he didn't refute Chris just now.
For the students of this school, James Harden is now a totem of the school.
This university has not produced many good basketball stars, and talented high school students will not choose Arizona State University. This is the reason why this university has been silent. James Harden changed everything, which made all Arizonans
Students at the state university are proud to have him.
Chris continued to introduce the general situation of the Sun Devils to Lin Ri in the following time. When he was almost finished and some of the content began to be repetitive, they finally arrived at the door of the training arena.
It was obviously not training time. There were not many people in the gym. The intrusion of Lin Ri and Chris seemed a bit unexpected. The staff here looked at their unfamiliar faces and hurried up to ask their purpose. Lin Ri said directly: "
I asked Coach Herb, and I told him in advance that I would come to him today."
Lin Ri also sent a message to Sandek before coming.
When the staff member heard Lin Ri's words, he also had a smile on his face: "Oh, by the way, Coach Herb did say that a student will come to him. I forgot about it because of my busy schedule.
I’ll take you to find him now!”
…
Herb Sandeck, who is in his fifties, has been engaged in basketball-related industries for decades. During these decades, he realized his dream step by step and became an NCAA first-level university.
Although the historical performance of this university is not very good, compared with other practitioners, he is already great.
He is not a person who belittles himself.
Last year, the arrival of James Harden, a star student he coached in high school, further solidified his head coaching position.
This summer, he unexpectedly secured a sponsorship, which guaranteed the team's logistics for the new season. This made him thankful that his luck seemed to be a bit too good in the past two years.
Although the sponsor said that it would arrange for a freshman to join the school team, this is not a problem at all for Sandek. After all, it is just to join the school team, and it is not that he will be the main force and let him watch the water dispenser for a season.
I also made it to the school team, it’s just a matter of having multiple spots and missing a spot, so it’s really not a big deal.
He just received a call from the freshman who was assigned to join the school team, saying that he wanted to come to the training gym to meet him. Originally, he didn't want to meet him. He was just a water cooler player. He would meet him during the official training around 4:30 p.m.
