Chapter 61 Departure! Memphis!
After drinking and eating, the two walked slowly along the streets of SH. Ji Feng liked the feeling of staying with the hot bar very much. Her warm and cheerful appearance always made Ji Feng feel relaxed, but Ji Feng Ji Feng Right now, all my thoughts are on how to get a foothold in the NBA, and I don't think much about it at all.
But Reba gradually understood how he felt, especially after Ji Feng took out this bracelet, but now doesn't seem like a good time.
Seeing that the night was getting darker and darker, Ji Feng really had to go. He and James would take the zero-point plane to Memphis to catch up with the team's trial training the next day.
"It's time to go." Ji Feng stopped at a fork in the road. It was already eight o'clock in the evening. If he didn't go, James would probably run over and kill him.
"Yeah, it's time to go." Reba lowered her head, she was a little greedy for this feeling, so she knew she couldn't delay any longer, but she still didn't speak.
"Why are you doing this? It's not like I'm not coming back, and if you have time, you can go to the United States to find me, but if you make your debut, the time will not be yours." Ji Feng looked at the hot bar and lowered his head. Looks, I suddenly feel really cute, how does a girl combine so many good qualities together.
"Really! Can I really go over?" Reba raised his head and stared with bright eyes, but he didn't hear what Ji Feng said later.
"Ah, of course, welcome anytime, if you want." Ji Feng said with a smile: "But I really should go."
"Well, come on! I will support you!" Reba waved his small fist.
Then when Ji Feng didn't react, he directly opened his arms and hugged Ji Feng's waist, making Ji Feng freeze in place.
"Is this a parting benefit?" Ji Feng thought to himself, but being passive is not Ji Feng's style!
So Ji Feng stretched out his long arms and took the hot bar in his arms, and the hot bar was wrapped in Ji Feng's arms. The flush on her face told us that she was definitely not as calm as she showed.
"I'll miss you!" It's just that the reluctance to part has temporarily suppressed the shyness, and I don't know when we will meet.
It seems that after a century, Ji Feng turned around and left without looking back. All these good things are the driving force of struggle, aren't they?
At 10:30 p.m. on August 13th, Ji Feng finally arrived at the airport. He had already said goodbye to his parents at home and rejected Ji Ran's proposal to send someone to follow him. After Ji Feng was ready, he formed his own team.
"Hey! Ji Feng, you are finally here."
As soon as he entered the airport, Ji Feng saw James, James was very happy, the day finally came.
"Hi, James, fortunately I'm not late." Ji Feng hugged James.
Standing not far from Ji Feng were many reporters and media who didn't know where to hear the news. They didn't come to disturb Ji Feng, but were just taking pictures. They didn't want to miss the first high school player in Chinese history to visit. NBA moments.
"You know, I can't wait. I believe that we will do something big in the United States." James was very excited, and his years of experience told him that what he had dug was a treasure.
"Of course, James, I have never doubted this, this is my goal, isn't it." Ji Feng said confidently.
"Attention travelers to Memphis, Attention travelers to Memphis, your flight is about to depart..."
"It's time to go!" Ji Feng picked up his luggage and followed James to the boarding gate.
At the moment of entering, Ji Feng waved his hand confidently at the media, and then disappeared from the popular sight.
This photo was captured by a reporter from a certain wave.
It became the front page of the sports page that night, and people were talking frantically, as the title said, 'Can he make it! ’
"Come on, brother." The basketball team members were silently watching Ji Feng, and they chose to cheer for Ji Feng in their hearts.
"Come on..." Reba took the mobile phone and looked at the sky outside the window. There was a text message just sent by Ji Feng in the mobile phone.
The man did not say goodbye, the stars and the moon complemented each other, and a plane took off slowly, bringing the dreamer to the distance of the dream.
Southern United States, Memphis, Tennessee.
A plane from China slowly landed at Memphis International Airport, the largest city in Tennessee, welcoming a group of travelers from China.
Ji Feng went through the whole day on the plane, but it was still the night of the 13th when he arrived in Memphis. Ji Feng felt that his transformed body was a little tired.
"Welcome to Memphis!" After getting off the plane, James was very energetic and said to Ji Feng with open arms.
"Yes, I'm very happy too, but James, shouldn't we find an authentic restaurant to have a good fucking meal and then find a place to sleep well?" Ji Feng spoke to James in very standard English.
"I have to admit, you're right, let's go my little brother and let me show you the best sandwiches in Memphis," James said.
"Well, I should have known that talking about food with Americans is really meaningless." Ji Feng said with a shrug.
After eating and drinking, Ji Feng was placed in a decent hotel near the FedEx Arena.
"Go to sleep Ji Feng, I will pick you up on time at eight o'clock tomorrow morning. We have to do a medical examination first, and then go to the arena, where someone will try out you. Since the team is not assembled, so There should be no one tomorrow, take it easy man, you will seize this opportunity, won't you." James told Ji Feng about the precautions.
"OK, I'll be ready." Ji Feng indicated that he was fine.
Early the next morning, Ji Feng packed up and had breakfast on time and went out, and James appeared at the door on time in his car.
"Ji Feng is in good spirits, this is a good start." James was very satisfied with Ji Feng's state.
On the way, James began to talk to Ji Feng about the content of this morning's test and the basic situation of the Grizzlies. In general, the current Grizzlies are a bit of internal and external troubles.
Since coming to Memphis in 2001, the team's owner, Michael Heisley, has been ambitious and invested a lot of money. He also built the arena as a home in 2004, but the team's performance has not improved until they After getting the current team's boss, Pau Gasol, the results have improved somewhat.
But the regular season record does not mean everything. They are hard to win in the playoffs. They were full of ambition last year to exchange Shane for small forward Rudy Gay, and want to make a big vote around Gasol. , However, Pau Gasol's injury directly led to the collapse of the entire team. The two coaches have been dismissed, and the team's general manager, Jerry West, has resigned.
"So what you mean is that the current general manager and the head coach have been changed, right." Ji Feng listened to James's explanation quietly, and was a little sympathetic to the Grizzlies, and at the same time understood why the Grizzlies It would be so simple to agree to try out by myself, but this is exactly what I need.
