Chapter 15
Tonight's Madison Garden was very lively, Li Pu looked around, and there were overhead everywhere.

No way, he was too tall to see his face at all.

"Mom and Dad, you can stay at home with peace of mind. You didn't come if you didn't come! In front of the TV, you can also cheer for Prince and me!"

Despite the noise around him, Lin Shuhao's voice on the phone still came from his ears.

Originally, Lin Shuhao's parents also wanted to come, but Lin Shuhao dissuaded them.

Obviously, he is still not confident that he can be selected tonight!
Worrying about parents coming to the scene and disappointing them.

"Stay, both of you, please stay, both of you!"

In the player tunnel area, Li Pu and Lin Shuhao were stopped by several people.

Looking down, Li Pu actually knew everyone. He had a big head, a thick neck, and wore glasses to pretend to be a cook. Isn't this the editor of Su Da?

As a former basketball fan, Li Pu watched the game broadcast a lot, and he was very familiar with the face of this senior domestic commentator.

"Hello! Li Pu, Lin Shuhao, we are reporters from China. My name is Su Qun. May I interview you?" Su Qun said to Li Pu in English.

"It's good to use Chinese, both of us can do it!" Seeing that there was a camera filming, Li Pu replied in Chinese.

"That's great! This year's draft, I didn't expect to see two Chinese faces. The compatriots on the other side of the ocean pay great attention to you. Is there anything you want to share with your compatriots?"

Regarding Su Qun's words, Li Pu didn't believe it at all, and it's not like he doesn't know how to surf the Internet.

Whether it's Li Pu or Lin Shuhao, they are all small and transparent existences on the domestic Internet at this time. How can there be such an exaggeration as Su Qun said?

As two children who grew up in foreign countries, they are not players who came from the regular domestic route at all, so it is naturally impossible to get too much publicity.

However, in this year's draft, Li Pu was still surprised that China could send such an interview lineup.

Obviously, I and Lin Shuhao have gradually entered everyone's sight.

Therefore, Li Pu needs to seize this opportunity to perform well, so that domestic fans who don't know him can know himself!

This time it was still Li Pu who replied: "First of all, I need to make a correction. Shuhao is of Chinese descent, but I am an overseas Chinese! After my father passed away, my nationality has been kept. Therefore, strictly speaking, I am Chinese!"

While speaking, Li Pu unbuttoned his suit, and showed the two national flags in the lining to the camera: "One side is the country where I was born, and the other is the country where I was raised. For these two countries , I am full of gratitude and love!"

As soon as this remark came out, Li Pu directly stood on the moral high ground. It is almost conceivable that domestic fans will directly love him.

Think about Mudiay a few years later, a Congolese who only played 12 games in China. With this trick alone, he gained countless domestic fans.

What's more, Li Pu is his own now!
Just when Su Qun was in shock, Lin Shuhao behind Li Pu really looked at Li Pu with a strange expression.

No wonder he sewed the national flags of the two countries on his clothes!

This guy has so many routines, he is simply a layer cake!

"We have a little understanding of your experience. You have indeed suffered a lot! Fortunately, the hardships have finally come to an end!" Su Qun said with emotion.

"Hahaha, that's true. If the national team needs it in the future, you can consider me!" While speaking, Li Pu suddenly said to the camera.

"Hahaha, of course it couldn't be better!"

Although Su Qun agreed so much, he also knew that it would be so easy for Li Pu to enter the national team.
"For tonight, which team do you think you can be selected by?" Su Qun asked.

"I can't say this kind of thing. In my opinion, no matter which team chooses me, it is my luck. Being able to stand on the NBA court is the greatest affirmation of my strength!"

"Me too!" At this moment, Lin Shuhao rarely found a chance to interrupt.

"Then what expectations do you have for your ranking?"

"The higher the better, of course. After all, every player who comes here thinks he is the best one!"

The microphone was aimed at Lin Shuhao again, and Lin Shuhao said helplessly, "Me too!"

"Then I wish you luck, I hope you can all be selected!"

"Thank you for your blessings. I believe that no matter whether we are selected or not, we will set foot on the NBA court. This is not only our dream, but also our responsibility! The NBA needs new faces of Asians!"

Lin Shuhao stared at Li Pu with wide eyes: "...me too!"

In this way, until the end of the interview, Lin Shuhao felt that he had been interviewed, and it seemed that he had not been interviewed. Li Pu had all the words and the limelight. Space.

"You don't understand the ways of the world in mainland China. The water here is too deep. I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it!" Li Pu explained, patting Lin Shuhao on the shoulder.

"It's as if you didn't grow up abroad? Who are you fooling?" Lin Shuhao looked at Li Pu resentfully, but didn't say anything, but followed Li Pu to the two people's positions.

Near the center of the stage, one after another was invited and was expected to be selected by the lottery lottery.

John Wall was happily chatting with his family at this time; Evan Turner was sitting in a chair nervously in a daze; DeMarcus Cousins ​​was sulking like everyone owed him 3000 million; Gordon Hayward chatting with Paul George at the next table.

Li Pu and Lin Shuhao could only sit on the outer side, no different from the area where the audience sat.

And in the box above, sit the management of each team.

Compared with the busy team manager, a box of the Warriors is extraordinarily quiet.

"Thank you for bringing me here, Daddy!" An Jiali thanked Vivek, who was sitting on the sofa not far behind, standing behind the glass and looking at the busy arena below.

"It's nothing, I wanted to take a look at it!" Vivek stood up with a smile, came to An Jiali's side, put his arm around An Jiali's shoulder and said, "How about it? Find the one that my little princess likes." Are you young?"

"Daddy, what are you talking about? Who likes him?" An Jiali blushed.

"No? You never came to any drafts before!"

"We're just friends! By the way, Dad, did the Warriors agree to choose Prince?"

"Of course, how could your father fail to make a shot? Don has already told me that he will use the second round pick to select Prince!"

"It's just the second-round pick?" An Jiali's expression was a little gloomy.

"The second-round lottery is not low!"

"But I heard that Prince performed very well in the Thunder's trial training, and the Thunder are already preparing to use the first-round pick for him!"

"Who knows how much of the news before the draft is true or not? But with Prince's strength, a second-round pick is enough. I don't think the Thunder would be so stupid to pick him in the first round!"

"But..." An Jiali didn't say the second half of the sentence. After all, she didn't want her father to know that the news was said by the person herself.

"Don't worry, even if the Thunder use the first-round pick, there is still hope in the future!"

Although An Jiali was faintly worried, she still gave Vivek a hug and said, "Anyway, thank you very much, Daddy!"

"Hey, thank me for a man I should have known would come!" Vivek said with a mock sigh.

"Dad, stop making fun of me! I also hope that the Warriors will do well, after all, I am also a Warriors fan!"

"Hahaha, is that really the case?"

An Jiali let go of Vivek, turned her head to the outside of the box, but said in her mouth, "Of course!"

"In this case, even if he is not selected by us, as long as a team selects him, as a friend, you will naturally be happy for him, won't you?"

An Jiali looked back at Vivek, but found that Vivek was looking at her with a bit of teasing, and immediately realized that she had been fooled.

Hastily turned his head again, avoiding Vivek's gaze: "Well, yes!"

However, her eyes, at the moment, were off the stage, falling on the tall figure.

If he was selected by the Thunder and went to a remote place like Oklahoma City, it would be even more difficult to meet him in the future!
