The Road to Stardom: Start as a Slam Dunk Master

Chapter 66 Personal Interview



Basketball Weekly contacted the Xiangyang School Board and wanted to do a special interview for Xiangyang. In the eyes of the Xiangyang School Board, this was naturally an unparalleled and top priority.

The basketball team took a day off.

In addition to personal interviews with each major player, reporters have already set up a full range of cameras in the arena to film the Xiangyang basketball team's entire training process.

Thinking that this was going to make national reports, not to mention the school board, everyone on the team was very excited about it.

Even Fujima and Toru Hanagata seemed to be extra energetic during today's training. They answered the reporters' questions seriously and after careful consideration. The interview went quite smoothly.

Only Lin Dong.

This reporter from Basketball Weekly really experienced what it means to be unpredictable...

Lin Dong didn't care about being caught on camera during the training process.

If he had the thought of being self-respecting, he would not have taught this training method to others in Xiangyang in the first place.

When this reporter from Basketball Weekly interviewed him, he obviously had some bad intentions and kept digging holes in him.

Of course, you have to deal with it well.

In the era of 2000, the three major sports teams in Japan were completely suppressed by the Dragon Kingdom.

Not to mention table tennis, I have been imitating it and never surpassed it.

The same is true for football. They are obviously the best in Asia, but the Dragon Kingdom is the best in Japan.

As for what Dragon Country basketball means to Japan... it is the biggest pain in the hearts of the Japanese.

Japan's basketball history has been glorious. Since winning the Tokyo Asian Championship in 1971, basketball has become one of the most popular ball sports in Japan. At that time, the Japanese men's basketball team was definitely at the top level in Asia.

But in 1975, after the Dragon Kingdom formed a team to participate in the Asian Championships for the first time and won the championship, they swept five consecutive Asian Championships, and the Japanese men's basketball team began to decline at that time.

After that, until the 1999 Asian Championships in Japan, there were a total of 13 Asian Championships. The Dragon Kingdom men's basketball team won two five-consecutive championships, as well as last year's championship, which completely established its dominance in Asia. At the same time, the Japanese men's basketball team However, the basketball team has lost its qualification to be a first-class player in Asia.

Among them, there are many national team combinations that Japan was optimistic about for several times, but due to poor luck in the grouping, they were eliminated early by Dragon Country.

Therefore, many people in the Japanese basketball world attribute the sharp decline in the performance of the Japanese men's basketball team to the rise of the Dragon Kingdom men's basketball team.

Whether you call it a matter of fact or metaphysics, in short, the Japanese men's fear and awe of the Dragon Kingdom have already been deeply rooted in their bones.

As long as you mention Dragon Kingdom in the Japanese basketball circle, even the uncle who sweeps the floor of the basketball hall will chat with you for three days and three nights.

He doesn't slander you, but he analyzes everything in detail.

Being good at learning is their characteristic, but being jealous while learning is also a national characteristic.

In such a general environment, a high school student from the Dragon Kingdom suddenly appeared and defeated the Kanagawa High School League.

This is simply adding salt to the wounds of the Japanese basketball world. The reporters wanted to dig some holes for him while interviewing him, and wanted to tell more stories about this high school student from the Dragon Country. Lin Dong felt that this was a completely normal thing.

If this were another normal high school student, with the vision and knowledge of a teenager, no matter how smart he is, he might not be able to withstand it, but it is Lin Dong after all.

Reporter: "Lin Dong, as Xiangyang's current ace, as a talented player that is far beyond the level of high school students, what do you think of the performance of other students on the same team?"

Lin Dong replied seriously: "Stand on the sidelines and watch."

The reporter frowned: "That's not what I meant. What do you think of their basketball level?"

"Just standing on the sidelines and watching."

"..."

The reporter adjusted his mood slightly: "I heard that Lin Dong did not participate in professional youth training in Longguo. How did Lin Dong learn basketball? If he just played with ordinary fans on the field, or If you study on your own, it’s impossible to reach your level, right?”

"Watch the videotape." Lin Dong took out the NBA videotape that was about to be returned to Fujima, and sighed: "We have an old saying in the Dragon Kingdom that books have their own golden rooms, but now there is basketball in the videotape, and we can learn from it. Everything you want to learn, take it and read it, and remember to return it to Fujima-senpai for me after reading it."

As he said that, he asked Touma next to him: "Is that okay, Senior Fujima?"

"no problem."

The reporter subconsciously took the videotape that was stuffed in his hand, opened his mouth and looked at the videotape in his hand, and seemed to have forgotten what the question he just asked was.

"Okay, I'm almost rested. If there are no more problems, I will go to shooting training." Lin Dong said happily.

"Please wait! I have another question here!"

The reporter finally reacted from his sluggishness and almost escaped him: "I heard that Xiangyang School intended to sign a three-year international student protection contract with Lin Dong, but you rejected it. Why is this? Yes. Because Lin Dong doesn’t want to study in Xiangyang for three years of high school, do you have any plans to transfer to other universities in Japan?”

"Of course not." Lin Dong answered directly and simply this time, then stood up directly holding the ball next to him: "Thank you for the interview, I'm going to train."

What kind of answer is this? !

"Please wait! There is another question you haven't answered. Why did you make such a choice?"

Digging holes and all, this guy is still a little too rigid compared to the gang of rogue reporters in the United States.

Lin Dong scratched his head in confusion.

"Didn't you say there was only one problem?"

The reporter was stunned, followed by a moment of chaos in the wind.

While he was still thinking about it, he saw that Lin Dong had turned around gracefully, happily walked over with the ball and started his shooting training.

Huh~

A clean three-pointer hit the net, and training officially began. Judging from his previous training volume, who knows when he will come down to rest for a while.

The reporter from Basketball Weekly opened his mouth wide and couldn't recover for a long time.

I feel like I didn’t get anything useful at all from today’s interview, and there were just a lot of answers from irrelevant people.

Captain Fujima's father once had a basketball dream, and so on Kagata Toru...

It all seems to have a story, but is that of any use?

What readers of Basketball Weekly want to see is Lin Dong from the Dragon Kingdom!

What everyone wants to know is his basketball experience, even what he eats for breakfast and what color his underwear is.

What everyone wants to see is that a report caused internal conflicts in Xiangyang, and the genius of the Dragon Kingdom collapsed due to internal strife in Japan...

As a result, I had been asking for a long time. Not to mention that I had successfully provoked him, I felt like I didn’t even ask a question!

...Is this guy really a 16-year-old high school student? This can't be the transformation of some old monster!
