After reporting to the Los Angeles Clippers, Chen Fang began to plan for his return to China.
As for Chen Fang's ability to return to the country to participate in the game, the Laker team was supportive.
In Jackson's opinion, Chen Fang was too young. He had never played in a professional league before. He might not be able to adapt to the sudden appearance of the NBA. It was best to take advantage of this off-season to play more games and accumulate some experience.
It was a pity that the Los Angeles Clippers did not sign up for the summer league this year. The Southern California Summer League that they had participated in last year was not held this year. Jackson was still thinking about how to help Chen Fang find a game to play. Now that Chen Fang could return to the country to play in the Los Angeles Cup, he had no reason to refuse.
On the 18th of July, Chen Fang boarded the plane back to China and flew directly to the capital to report to the national basketball team.
In the past two days, Chen Cai had learned some of the inside information about his participation in the Si Cup.
As a newly planned game, it was inevitable that celebrities would join in to create hype. The organizing committee had been promoting the confrontation between Yao Ming and Ginobili. They wanted to rely on NBA stars to attract attention like last year's NBA China game.
Unfortunately, Yao Ming was injured and had been recuperating. Although his name was still on the list of appearances, the Basketball Association knew that Yao Ming could not play.
Meanwhile, Ginobili and Agatha had also confirmed that they would not be coming.
Without a star player, how could he attract people?
Just as the Basketball Association was panicking, the news of Chen Fang landing in the NBA and being signed by the Los Angeles Clippers with a large sum of money suddenly spread back to the country.
Looking at Chen Fang, who had jumped out of nowhere, the Basketball Association did not think too much and directly called him up. Coincidentally, Chen Fang was also a center, so he could replace Yao Ming, who could not play.
When the time came, he would show the audience that even though Yao Ming wasn't here, he was still an NBA center.
Not to mention that Chen Fang's news was all over the news recently. Moreover, Chen Fang was only a high school student. If he was selected for the national team, it would be a huge gimmick that could be promoted well.
Considering all these reasons, the Basketball Association had decided to temporarily include Chen Fangzhao on the national team ten days before the start of the Copa Cola Cup.
At the same time.
Before Chen Fang agreed to return to China and boarded the plane, the Chinese Basketball Association had already held a press conference to announce that they would recruit Chen Fang to the national team and that he would participate in the Stankovi? Cup.
The moment the news came out, the basketball circle exploded.
No one expected Chen Fang to be transferred to the national team to participate in the upcoming NBA Cup as soon as he entered the NBA.
What was even more unbelievable was that before July 8th, the whole world did not know who Chen Fang was.
Now, Chen Fang had gone from an unknown high school student to a national athlete with an annual salary of 20 million yuan.
It was said that he became famous overnight, but Chen Fang's speed of becoming famous still broke countless records.
As for the reporters who were still in Los Angeles and looking for Chen Fang all over the world, they found out that Chen Fang had quietly returned to China and became a national player.
On the 19th, Chen Fang and the other two walked out of the airport.
Chen Tao took a deep breath and said," Home is still the best. Although the air is a little bad, it's comfortable to breathe in it. Son, I'll bring you to eat roast duck later. I'll eat hamburger salad every day. I'm about to vomit from eating it."”
Chen Fangxin said that he could still eat hamburgers, but he couldn't even eat hamburgers. In order to control his illness, Jackson found a dietitian from the Los Angeles Clippers to help him customize a special recipe.
It was not an exaggeration to say that this recipe was raising Chen Fang like a rabbit.
The three of them walked out of the pick-up gate. As they were talking, someone suddenly shouted from the front.
The loud voice gave Chen Fang a fright. He thought that some important person had arrived and subconsciously turned his head to take a look.
Then, he heard the sound of footsteps. Chen Fang realized that he was surrounded.
All kinds of recording pens, microphones, and so on were almost stabbed into Chen Fang's face.
The camera's flash did not stop. It was so bright that Chen Fang's eyes hurt.
Chen Fang and the other two were completely stunned. They did not know what had happened.
Fortunately, the airport security guards rushed over and helped Chen Fang and the other two out of the predicament.
There was also a young man in his thirties in a suit among the security guards. He shouted,"Comrades, Chen Fang has just returned from such a long flight. He must be very tired now. Let's take a walk and let them go to the hotel to rest. If there are any questions, tomorrow, the Basketball Association will have a press conference tomorrow.”
However, these reporters were not easy to deal with.
It had been more than a week since Chen Fang signed with the Los Angeles Clippers, but no one had been able to interview him. Now that they had finally caught him alive, they would not let him go so easily.
Many people were already asking all kinds of questions, such as how Chen Fang signed with the Laker and how he felt about it.
The young man no longer hesitated. He quickly called the security guards to protect Chen Fang and the other two.
The three of them rushed out of the crowd of reporters and got into the car arranged by the Basketball Association.
Chen Tao let out a long sigh as the car started. His face was pale as he said,"These reporters are too scary.”
Tan Wenbin smiled bitterly." That's normal. Chen Fang has signed with the Los Angeles Clippers. It's such big news, but they haven't been able to interview Chen Fang. Now that Chen Fang is back, how can they not be excited?"”
The young man sitting in the front row turned around and extended his hand to introduce himself."Hello, Chen Fang. My name is Zhao Liang. I'll help you coordinate anything after you return to the country.”
Chen Fang quickly shook hands with Zhao Liang.
Zhao Liang said," I'll send you guys to the hotel first. You guys should rest well this year and get over the jet lag. Then, tomorrow morning, we've arranged a press conference. Chen Fang, you might have to attend then."”
"In the afternoon, I'll take you to the training center. Our basketball team has been training there for many days.”
Chen Fang nodded and noted it down. Since he was back, he would listen to the arrangements of the Basketball Association.
"By the way, can I ask a personal question?”
" I want to ask you," Zhao Liang asked after Chen Fang nodded." How did you sign with the Laker?"”
This was probably the question that all the reporters in the Dragon Country wanted to know the most.
Chen Fang didn't think there was anything he couldn't say about this question. It was just that the Los Angeles Clippers asked him not to give private interviews.
"It's nothing much. I went to the US to play, and then a scout from the Clippers saw me and invited me to try out. Then, for some reason, the Los Angeles Clippers also invited me to try out, and then I signed the contract.”
Zhao Liang was stunned." Are you saying that the Clippers sent you an invitation to try out?"”
Outsiders thought that the Clippers had contacted Chen Fang directly, but Liang Zhao knew that the Clippers had contacted Chen Fang before the Clippers.
"How was the Clippers 'trial? Are they not planning to sign you?”
"No, I haven't."
Chen Fang shook his head and said," They were also prepared to sign me, but the money was too little. We didn't agree."”
Zhao Liang's mouth was wide open, and his brain was buzzing.
The Clippers wanted to sign you, but you didn't sign it and complained that they didn't give you enough money.
Since when could the players of the Dragon Country say no to the NBA teams and complain that they were giving too little money?
Many basketball players dreamed of entering the NBA. They would be willing to play in the NBA even if they didn't need money.
However, Chen Fang refused to do it even though he was paid less.
After Chen Fang complained about the lack of money, he really got a big contract from the Los Angeles Clippers.
If the players who wanted to go to the NBA knew about this, what would they think?
