Dad, Please Try a Little Harder Chapter 161

  Chapter 161 Ding Linlang: Because you are stronger!

   "You played well, I hope you can represent the Southeast Division to win the championship!"

  After the game, the captain of Zhejiang University took the initiative to hug and greet the players of Haishi University in a very graceful manner. When it was time for Qian Quan, he gave words of encouragement.

   "Thank you, we will do our best." Qian Quan responded politely.

  That night, the news that Qian Quan broke the scoring record in the college basketball game inevitably sparked another discussion.

  Professional teams offered olive branches one after another, but Qian Quan declined on the grounds that he had joined the track and field team.

  Actually, for professional teams, a player with a good image and good skills like Qian Quan has great commercial potential, and they can draw a big picture for him without any psychological burden.

   But not to mention that he is now a big internet celebrity, and a movie with a big investment is about to start shooting. The commercial potential of a sprinter alone may not be worse than that of a basketball player.

  Qian Quan's height determines that he cannot achieve as much success in foreign professional leagues as Dayao, but the sprint potential he has shown now makes him hopeful to become an Asian trapeze like Liu Xiang.

  When Liu Xiang was at his peak, his commercial value was second only to Dayao.

  If Qian Quan wins the 100-meter medal in this year's Olympics, or even wins the championship, then his worth will directly increase to 9 figures or even 10 figures.

   In contrast, domestic professional basketball players, even the top few, may not be able to reach this level.

   As for convincing him with his basketball dream, it is even more unrealistic. What about his dream of being an Olympic champion and actor?

  If you join the basketball team, can you guarantee to win the Olympic Games?

   Can a basketball player earn 2 million a day?

   Therefore, although it is a pity for the basketball team eager to get money and power, there is nothing they can do.

   The good news is that no other team can get him.

   "Qian Quan, do you know that you broke the single-game scoring record in the National College Basketball Tournament?"

  In the post-match interview, the sports channel reporter asked Qian Quan.

   "Now I know, the coach told me the news."

   "Then how do you feel now?"

   "Say sorry to my teammates. I failed to meet their expectations and failed their good intentions." Qian Quan said with a smile.

   "Why do you have to apologize, because you robbed your teammates of the phone?"

  "No, my teammates told me before the game that if Zhejiang University insists on shooting me tonight, they will join forces to help me score 100 points, but I didn't do it."

   "Oh, that's it..." The host laughed a few times.

   "Just kidding, in fact, what I want to say is, thank you teammates for your support."

   "Hmm! Then, will you consider continuing to break the scoring record in the following games?"

   "No," Qian Quan shook his head, "Actually, I'm not a scorer. I hope I can play more roles on the court and contribute both offensively and defensively."

   "Okay, thank you for accepting my interview. Finally, congratulations on entering the national semi-finals. I wish you better results in the next competition."

"Thanks."

   After Qian Quan's post-match interview and report went out, he used the headline “Scored 80 points, broke the scoring record, Qian Quan: I am not a scorer”.

   This interview naturally aroused heated discussions among the fan groups, and was regarded by everyone as a new way of expressing Versailles.

  In any case, after Hai Normal University defeated Zhejiang University, it officially advanced to the top four in the country. This result also refreshed the best record in the history of Hai Normal University.

  The school's official website and official blog posted the news of the celebration immediately.

   Now, the Sea Normal University is waiting for the results of the remaining games before deciding on the opponents for the semi-finals.

  The knockout match is a bit similar to the playoffs of professional games, except that it is not a series, but a game to determine the outcome, and there is a certain degree of chance.

  However, one thing is for sure, those who can reach the top four in the country are definitely strong teams, and chance is also a coincidence between strong teams.

  According to this year's competition system, Hai Normal University's next round of opponents will be between Peking University and Siming University.

  Peking University is a traditional strong team, needless to say, with three championships and one runner-up, and has reached the top four in the country all the year round.

  Siming University, like Shanghai Normal University, is also a dark horse this year. It has never won a championship in history.

  The reason for the sudden emergence this year is that a No. 7 small forward who was originally a substitute was mentioned as the starting position, and then he seemed to be unsealed, suddenly broke out, and led the team all the way to the promotion.

  However, according to the analysis of Qian Quan, Yu Liangce and others, they believe that the high probability of the two teams advancing is Peking University.

   One is that the overall strength of Peking University is stronger, and the other is that the main forwards of Peking University are tall, strong and flexible, and their defense is extremely strong.

  Basketball, in the final analysis, is still a sport for adults. In professional leagues, players around 1.8 meters have achieved career success, but almost no one has won the championship when the team boss is stronger than Allen Iverson, and he has never won a championship for life.

  A foreign coach once said, give me five players whose height is 2 meters, and I will win the championship.

   Therefore, in the tactical deduction of Haishi University, Peking University was mainly regarded as the opponent in the next round, and even the tactics of the main striker of Peking University to defend against Qian Quan were simulated.

   "I bet Siming University will advance."

   While eating, Ding Linlang expressed his judgment.

"Why?"

  "First, there is chance in a match that determines the outcome. The stronger side is often under greater pressure, will be restrained, and there is no chance to adjust;

   "Second, the basketball game is about momentum, and Siming University has counterattacked all the way, and the morale is even stronger;

   "Thirdly, the lineup of Siming University is not much weaker than that of Peking University, and they have two accurate pitchers, and they have an absolute core, and the team is more united."

  Qian Quan was surprised and said: "You research so thoroughly?"

   "Of course, I have also studied Peking University." Ding Linlang was not without pride, "To be honest, if you want to advance to the finals, you should pray for Siming University to advance. Your chances of winning against Peking University are not as good as facing Siming University."

   "You mean that Peking University's lineup can defeat us?"

   "This is one reason, and another important reason is that you are too popular this time, which is a bit of a phenomenon. It is estimated that the teams aspiring to win the championship are all studying you.

   "Peking University's overall strength is strong. When facing you, it will definitely show 120% of the state. If you play against Peking University, it will be very difficult."

   "It makes sense, but if Siming wins Peking University, it means that Siming is stronger than we imagined. The morale and pitchers you analyzed are also our troubles, especially their No. 7, which is also difficult to play."

   "You guys will win Siming."

   "Why are you so sure?"

  Ding Linlang stared at Qian Quan with a pair of bright eyes and a slight smile, and said, "Because...you are stronger."

  Qian Quan met Ding Linlang's gaze, heard her tone of voice, and said, "Wow Linlang, you are so good at it!

   "Hurry up and eat, go back to the hotel!"

   "Why are you going back to the hotel?" Ding Linlang asked knowingly.

"Um!"

   "What are you talking about?" Ding Linlang reached out and hit Qian Quan.

   "I mean go back and watch the game to see if your analysis is right." Qian Quan said with a slightly bad smile.

   "cut~"

   After talking, the two finished their meal, walked hand in hand for a while, and went straight to the hotel.
