Chapter 28 No. 1 Candidate and Interview

"77 to 62, the opening game of the Big Ten, Ohio State easily defeated Wisconsin..."

"Alandotuck's performance is already excellent enough, but Greg Oden, who is getting better, has scored a dominant performance, with 25 points, 19 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals, and 5 big hats. He turned the Ohio State penalty area into a dead end..."

Robin Lundberg, editor-in-chief of the NBA talent show column of Sports Illustrated.

As the NCAA season is in full swing, his daily work has also become a lock in the CBS Sports Channel, and he can watch all NCAA events broadcast across the United States in a blink of an eye.

He just finished watching the battle between the two-seeded Big Ten in the Yamato and Wisconsin, Ohio State, and the result was unexpected.

"Average 19 points per game last season, Alan Dottuck, who scored 30 points in this game, failed to stop Wisconsin from losing. Brian Butcher, who ranked ninth in the United States in 2003, was beaten head-on by Greg Oden. All this is incredible..."

Lundberg, who was shocked, called his assistant.

"Join, did you watch the big Ohio State game?"

"Of course, this is the highlight."

"What do you think?"

"Greg Oden's performance is so outstanding. He is a rare genius. The next Bill Walton and the next Bill Russell may have underestimated him. Sony Vaccarlo (Reebok marketing director) is right. Even if Greg Oden doesn't play in a game from now on, he will be the No. 1 pick in the 2007 draft."

"That latest draft prediction ranking list..."

"KD slipped one and gave the No. 1 pick to Greg Oden."

"That's it."

...

Bang!

A brand new sports pictorial landed on the dining table in the restaurant. Li Ke, who was enjoying breakfast, looked confused. When he looked up, he saw Xiao Du wearing frost.

"Sports Illustrated is so outrageous. In the same opening game, Greg Oden overtook me and became the No. 1 pick."

Xiao Du was indignant and Li Ke didn't have to look at it, and he already understood what was going on.

"That's just a draft prediction, Kevin..."

"I know, but I just can't figure it out. I, 37 points, 15 rebounds, 7 assists, 2 steals and 1 block in the opening game, Greg Oden, 25 points, 19 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 steals and 5 blocks in the opening game, stats, I have more points and assists, and he only has more rebounds and blocks than me, why..."

While listening to Xiao Du's resentful words and throwing down the breakfast in his hand, Li Ke couldn't wait to read the sports pictorial.

Go to the talent show column, predict the rankings, and search carefully from bottom to top.

"Stop looking for it, Sheldon, you are still not available in this issue."

Before Li Ke could finish all the sweeping, Xiao Du told Li Ke about the cruel facts.

Li Ke still did not stop the action he was looking for. Until he scanned the entire article and confirmed that he did not have himself, he slowly said, "If there is no, there is no..."

Then, he raised his head and suddenly turned the topic to Xiao Du: "Kevin, I think you have to learn from me and keep a calm mind..."

Li Ke used big principles to educate Xiao Du, but in fact he comforted Xiao Du. As for Xiao Du, at this time he only complained to Li Ke and vented his dissatisfaction. He had not yet reached the point of being a big shot at netizens later.

Xiao Du didn't speak out, but there were others outside who were making a frustration for Xiao Du.

Stephen Adler has the same name as Reuters president, and he is also a media person. The difference is that he is just a young reporter in the sports version of "Austin News".

As a native of Austin and a fan of Longhorns, Sports Illustrated's latest draft prediction rankings gave Adler the opportunity to become a big reporter.

He quickly completed an article carefully and prepared to put it on the sports front page of Austin News the next day.

At the same time, he also understood that Austin News had too little influence. No matter how intense an article was, it would be difficult to cause storms on the big stage of the United States.

Fortunately, as a top student at the Modi Communication School of Deutsche University, he still has several teachers and classmates working in North American media.

I called out a few more emails.

Stephen Adler got up and stretched.

The phone rang, and after answering, he replied a few words, and Adler quickly dressed neatly and went out.

...

On the off day, Li Ke received a call from Russell Spliman and was forced to rush to Frank Irving Center.

"This is so immoral, Russell, I finally had a day off..."

As soon as he entered the locker room, Li Ke complained loudly.

"Sheldon, put away your complaints, it would be a good thing for me to come to you."

Russell Spliman interrupted Li Ke, rolled his eyes, and introduced a young white man beside him to Li Ke.

"This is Stephen Adler, the editor-in-chief of the Austin News Sports Edition, and he is also your senior."

Stephen Adler stretched out his right hand towards Li Ke and introduced himself: "Stephen Adler, a graduate of Modi Communication Academy for 2000, your senior."

Li Ke also stretched out his right hand and snatched it, understanding Russell Spliman's meaning.

"So, Russell, you called me here just for an interview?"

"It's an interview."

"Well, you can definitely let this senior Adler go to my apartment."

"But you're a member of the Longhorns, and the Frank Irving Center is more suitable as a location for exclusive interviews."

"You're right, Russell, but why don't you tell me in advance?"

Li Ke pointed to his big oily head and then pointed to the camera in Adler's hand. Russell Splimann realized that Li Ke was too ungrateful today, and he should have told Li Ke in advance.

However, when you arrive at the Frank Irving Center, there is no chance of making up for it.

"There is shampoo in the shower room in the locker room. You go wash your hair and change into a new jersey..."

"That's all."

Soon, Li Ke, who had cleaned up, sat in front of Stephen Adler.

Even Adler, a white man, couldn't help but secretly praise: handsome!

Li Ke's appearance is quite tough, but his eyes are like peach blossoms, his lines are clear, and he has a bit of the temperament of a young and handsome man, and his nose is straight, which also conforms to the aesthetics of Europeans and Americans. In addition, a 2-meter-old man, if he really needs to rely on his appearance to make a living, he might be able to make a breakthrough.

Adler couldn't help but take a photo of Li Ke in front of the background of the locker room.

Then the interview began.

No different from those same interviews, Adler first asked why Li Ke chose to join the Longhorns, and after joining the Longhorns, what are the coaches, teammates, and how they develop themselves...

Such an interview is really not nutritious, but Li Ke doesn't find it boring.

Because of some questions, he was always able to give surprising answers, and Li Ke found it very interesting to see Adler's face full of surprise and even shock.

"Why did I choose to join the Longhorn? Because at that time, I had only two choices, the other was Southern California..."

"Rick Barnes is a very outstanding coach. Kevin Durant will be the NBA super giant in the future. He is much better than Greg Oden. It is not strength, but physical endurance..."

"Greg Oden? The only No. 1 pick? Let's talk about it when he can spend the whole season healthy. As far as I know, since the senior year, he has been missing due to injury..."

"Are you annoying teammates? This question is too spicy, but I will still answer truthfully, because everyone knows that Damien James and I don't deal with it. He mists me and almost ruins the victory of a game..."

"The goal of the future? The goat, I'm not referring to Earl Mani Cault... You look surprised, Stephen, but I have to be honest, I'm not kidding."

“…”
