Chapter 651 The problem of naturalized players
The reason why Meng Yun flew to S City International Airport this time instead of H Province's International Airport was because Under Armor arranged an event in S City, which required Meng Yun to participate.

Another point is that Meng Yun needs to meet with Yao Ming. Yao Ming came during the tiebreaker with Meng Yun, but Meng Yun was in the game and time was short, so he couldn't have a good chat.Now that the season is over, when Meng Yun comes back, he must have a good chat with Yao Ming, and by the way, talk about the national team.

Yao Ming personally came to the airport to pick him up, but when he saw so many fans at the airport, Yao Ming had no choice but to return to the car and sent his assistant Xiao Liu to the airport lobby to pick up Meng Yun and the others.

It has been more than an hour to wait for someone to receive it.

Liu Qin breathed a sigh of relief after getting into the car, patted her chest and said, "These fans are so enthusiastic."

"Hehe." Guo Hai said with a smile: "It's not bad. The fans are just enthusiastic, but they are still rational. They didn't rush forward. They were all queuing up for autographs. The last time Meng Yun came back, there was a conflict at the airport. Maybe After experiencing what happened last time, the fans also know Meng Yun's temperament, so this time they are very disciplined, just wasted a little time and nothing happened."

The last time Meng Yun came back, when he was at the airport, because the security personnel hired by Under Armor were too rude and clashed with the fans, Meng Yun all went into battle.

That incident was not a small one, and many fans know it.

At that time, Meng Yun said that he hoped that the fans would exercise restraint, remain rational, and ensure order. As long as everyone lined up in an orderly manner, anyone who wanted to sign an autograph or take a group photo would be fine.

This time, all the hardcore fans of Meng Yun came here, and the organizers had already told everyone to be orderly, so the order at that time was surprisingly good. Except for the fact that the fans were a little too excited and excited at the beginning, they were very rational afterward. .They queued up for autographs, and Meng Yun patiently signed autographs for the fans.

The airport was greatly relieved. A staff member was also a fan of Meng Yun, and brought a table and chairs for Meng Yun to sit and sign, but Meng Yun refused.

The fans are standing and he is sitting alone, what is this?
With so many fans standing, they are not afraid of getting tired, and of course Meng Yun is not afraid, not to mention that he is still an athlete and in good health, so standing for hours is nothing.

So there was such a scene, more than 200 fans lined up in a long line, and the line extended from the corner of the airport lobby to the door.They held small notebooks, or basketballs, sneakers, and jerseys, waiting for Meng Yun's signature.Meng Yun stood in the corner, signing one by one, and it took more than an hour to stand.

In fact, a simple signature will not take so long.

Some fans wanted to take a group photo, and Meng Yun was satisfied one by one. Also, seeing the formation here, many people joined in temporarily, so it took more than an hour to end.

Liu Qin started, and Xiao Liu, Yao Ming's assistant, also smiled and said, "Yes, it's the first time I've seen the fans so orderly. It's also the first time I've seen a celebrity stand and sign autographs for more than an hour. Even the reporters They were all shocked."

"Really?" Yao Ming asked with a smile.

After listening, Yao Ming nodded again and again, and praised Meng Yun: "You are right. Now some people are too squeamish and think that they are great if they are a star. What's wrong with a star? If you don't have fans who like you and support you, you will do nothing No. Although the incident at the airport last time was a bit big, you did the right thing."

Meng Yun smiled and said, "Thank you Brother Yao for your compliment."

Yao Ming chuckled and was in a good mood: "Let's go to the hotel first. My family will come over later, and we will have a meal together, just in time to have a good chat with you."

Meng Yundao: "I also wanted to have a good chat with you, Brother Yao. The last time you played against the Raptors in the tiebreaker, you left without saying hello. It was too embarrassing."

Yao Ming laughed and said, "It's not an outsider."

This sentence is enough.

In the evening, Yao Ming had a treat. Meng Yun was with Guo Hai, Guo Shuyao, Liu Qin, and Yao Ming and his family. Liu Qin was very talkative, and chatted very speculatively with Yao Ming's wife.

Meng Yun talked about some things with Yao Ming.

"Brother Yao." Meng Yun said, "I went to Spain two days ago and watched a game played by a friend, the Canadian Chinese I mentioned to you."

Yao Ming said: "I remember, it's called Xiang Long, right? In fact, I also pay attention to the European League. Xiang Long has performed very well in EL and ACB. He is very talented and strong. It is a pity that EL and ACB are against us in China. It is almost a blank area, because there are no our players playing there, so few people in China pay attention to these two major professional leagues. But I think EL and ACB have something to learn from, especially EL. EL should now It can be regarded as the second largest basketball professional league in the world, second only to the NBA, better and more influential than the American Development League."

"That's right." Meng Yun's eyes lit up: "I didn't expect Brother Yao to know so much about the European League."

Yao Ming sighed with emotion: "The reason why I know this is that I hope to learn something from them. Although our cba is also a professional league, there are still many shortcomings. It is not professional enough and not standardized enough. In the past, we I have been learning about the NBA, but after all, the gap is too big, and I am completely different after learning. So I think it is good to learn about the European professional leagues. They also start from weak to strong. Compared with the NBA, there are more things to learn from. "

CBA has a lot of problems. Although it is not as bad as the national football team, it can be said that it has been ill for a long time.

In the past, Yao Ming was powerless, but now that the cba has completed the reorganization and established the cba company, and Yao Ming has also been elected as the chairman of the cba, he can finally start to make some changes.

In order to promote the reform of the cba, Yao Ming made a lot of preparations and formulated some plans, but there are still many difficulties and many problems in the actual implementation.

But Yao Ming is optimistic, at least he has taken the first step.

After being silent for a while, Yao Ming chuckled and said, "It's far away, let's talk about what happened just now. You went to Spain to watch Xiang Long's game, right? ACB's semi-final."

"Yes." Meng Yun said: "Xiang Long and the others won that game. Xiang Long scored 35 points and added 10 rebounds. He is one of the most talented players I have ever seen, and although he is a Canadian, He's still a Chinese at heart. So I wonder if it's possible to recruit him into the national team."

Yao Ming raised his brows and didn't answer immediately, but thought for a while before saying: "Actually, we have discussed the issue of absorbing foreign players, which is the so-called 'naturalized players'. But the operation is very complicated and there are many problems. For example Jeremy Lin, many fans hope that he can join the Chinese men's basketball team, but it is one thing to talk about it, and another thing to do it."

Meng Yun didn't understand this, so he listened carefully.
