The next morning, his parents sent Zhou Feng to the airport.
With his parents reluctant to part, Zhou Feng boarded the plane.
" Welcome aboard international flight A9527. The destination of this flight is Los Angeles. The estimated flight time is seven hours and thirty-seven minutes..."
"Sir, please fasten your seatbelt. The plane is about to take off!”
The flight attendants on the plane walked back and forth, checking whether the passengers were wearing their seat belts and whether everything was safe. The plane also began to leave the ground, leaving China, and flying toward Los Angeles.
This time, they were heading to the University of California, a campus in Los Angeles.
Los Angeles was located in the southwestern part of California. It was the second largest city in the United States and the largest city in the western part of the United States. It was often called the City of Angels.
The United States was a country that mainly used English for communication. Zhou Feng had not finished high school yet, and his English level could only be described as terrible. He could get between 30 and 50 marks out of 150 marks on the English test paper, but it was all by chance.
Because there were many multiple-choice questions in English.
Even so, Zhou Feng still swaggered up from the table and headed to Los Angeles alone. That was because of the existence of the god-grade talent system. He had used up the remaining talent points in exchange for the ability to master English.
Now, Zhou Feng had no problem communicating in English.
"Hello, my name is Lenzo Bauer. I'm heading to Los Angeles for the draft.”
Looking at the NBA basketball player in front of him, Zhou Feng was still a little surprised. After all, this person was born in Los Angeles and became a member of the Los Angeles team in the draft. But now, he was actually on a plane to Los Angeles.
"Are you also participating in the talent show?" Lonzo Bauer asked curiously.
"I'm not old enough yet. I'm studying at the University of California now.”
" Oh, it looks like we'll be schoolmates in the future, but I've already decided not to continue studying. Basketball is my goal from now on. This time, I came to China for a vacation. I've always been fascinated by China. I don't know when I'll have the chance to come to China again after I enter the NBA, so…"
Lonzo Bauer was like a chatterbox as he chattered non-stop, allowing Zhou Feng to understand why he had appeared on the plane.
This guy was predicted to be one of the top three favorites in the NBA draft.
In the NBA draft, Lonzo Bauer was selected by the Los Angeles Clippers with the second pick in the first round.
The Los Angeles Clippers officially announced the signing of Lonzo Bauer on a four-year contract worth $33.47 million.
Lonzo Bauer represented the Los Angeles Los Angeles Summer League and played six games. He had two triple-doubles and played 32.5 minutes per game. He had 16.3 points, 7.7 rebounded, 9.3 assists, and 2.5 steals. He was elected as the MVP of the Las Vegas Summer League and became the first player in the history of the Los Angeles Summer League to be elected as the MVP. He was also selected as the first team of the best team in the Summer League.
Looking at this fellow, he recalled for a moment.
"Why, buddy? You know me? Haha, I knew it a long time ago. Otherwise, I wouldn't have taken the initiative to greet you. I'll protect you when you're in Los Angeles.”Lonzo Bauer patted Zhou Feng's shoulder with a proud expression.
After all, the draft list had already been released, especially the top players. Anyone who followed the NBA would know about these players.
Zhou Feng smiled. He really did not expect that Lonzo Bauer's personality would be like this. Actually, he had also wanted to participate in the draft, but because of his age, there was really no other way. However, if there were no special accidents, the two of them should become teammates.
This time, the two of them had a lot in common and began to chat.
Unknowingly, the plane landed at Los Angeles International Airport.
As soon as they got off the plane, they saw a tall man wearing sunglasses standing at the exit to welcome them.
The appearance of this person at the airport caused a sensation.
"Wow…Kobe…Can you give me your autograph?”
"Kobe, you're my idol. It's my honor to see you here. Can we take a photo together?”
"Kobe, what is he doing at the airport? Is he picking up someone?”
"Who needs Kobe to come and pick them up personally? Are they his relatives?”
"I'm not sure. Won't we know when we take a look later?”
"Kobe must be a big shot to be able to welcome them personally. He might be able to help the Los Angeles Clippers become a dynasty again.”
……
Some passers-by started discussing because Kobe's influence in Los Angeles was very large. Although he had retired, he had created the Purple Gold Dynasty under his leadership and led the Los Angeles team to glory.
In the past year, Kobe's retirement had caused the repercussions of the Laker team to show. It was difficult for them to even make it into the playoffs. This man had become a strong spiritual pillar for Los Angeles.
In the beginning, Lonzo Bauer and Zhou Feng were talking along the way and did not notice the commotion that was caused in the tunnel.
However, when they walked out of the passage and saw Kobe, who stood out from the crowd, Lonzo Bauer's eyes lit up and he became a little excited.
"Uncle Kobe, I'm very familiar with him. He's friends with my parents. He must have come to welcome me this time.”
"It looks like Uncle Kobe also thinks that I will become the pillar of the Laker team and lead them to the playoffs and win the championship.”
"Haha, you know, I didn't brag to you on the plane, did I? I was a main player who scored more than 30 points per game in school.”
"Uncle Kobe, you must have come to welcome me this time to persuade me to join the Laker.”
……
Lonzo Bauer was all smiles as he spoke non-stop. He saw Kobe surrounded by some people, but he did not go over immediately.
Kobe returned an apologetic look, indicating for him to wait a little longer.
"It's okay, Uncle Kobe. I'm not in a hurry.”
Some people who followed the NBA also saw this scene and couldn't help but guess.
"This is Lonzo Bauer. Could it be that the Laker team is so optimistic about this guy that they've sent Kobe to welcome him?”
"The Chinese man next to him isn't short either. Is he Lenzo Bauer's assistant?”
"Lenzo Bauer's strength is also not bad. He's a popular candidate in the top three of the draft.”
