"It seems the rumors are true?" After the warm-up match, Coach Gong actually gave the players a day off and took everyone to the 5a scenic spot Orange Island.
The appearance of a group of long people immediately attracted tourists, and then they spread the word. Soon they were followed by a group of fans and reporters, and the number of people grew at an extremely fast rate.
In desperation, the men's basketball team can only temporarily evacuate Orange Island, but this is not without its benefits. Men who cannot play in Orange Island get a half-day of free vacation.
However, it is not without restrictions. You must return before ten o'clock in the evening.

"Recommendations for Changsha food." A black sweatshirt, casual sweatpants, a baseball cap with the Lakers logo and sunglasses.
"Have you ever gone out to look for food?" Li Hao asked his teammates.
"Foraging?" Everyone looked at Li Hao.
"Of course I have to try various delicacies in Changsha if I have time." Li Hao's words immediately made everyone lose most of their interest.
"There will be a game soon, don't eat random food outside," big brother Yi Jianlian couldn't help but remind him.
"It's okay, once in a while. At worst, I'll come back after dinner and go to the gym for two hours," Li Hao said.
In the end, no one was with Li Hao, and Li Hao didn't care about it. Li Hao even felt that it was better to have no one. He was freer by himself. Besides, it was easy to be discovered when several senior people walked together.
Although after posting on Weibo, a group of fans sent Li Hao private messages and comments asking for a chance encounter. Of course, there were also many fans who introduced Li Hao to delicious food.
"I'm leaving, let's meet by chance." Li Hao then once again topped the Weibo hot search list.
And this is just the beginning. In the following period, photos of Li Hao's encounters with fans frequently hit the hot search list.
It was a chance encounter. Although Li Hao wore sunglasses and a baseball cap and was dressed very ordinary, his height of 195cm is still quite superior.
After being recognized, Li Hao generously took photos and signed autographs, and also offered snacks to those waiting in line.
There used to be a movie called "Looking for Jay Chou", and today Li Hao plays a real-life version, but his version is not a search, but an encounter, "Encountering Li Hao".
On this day, Li Hao once again dominated the rankings.
……………………………………………………
"Okay, I'm going to the gym to burn off all the food I've eaten in the afternoon." At 9:30 in the evening, Li Hao returned to the base to officially end the day's foraging trip.
And as he said before leaving, Li Hao spent two hours in the gym after returning to the base before taking a shower and going to bed.
In the next few days, Li Hao didn't go out. Every day he was either training or playing cards with his teammates, or playing other sports and pastimes, such as table tennis, the most powerful ball game in China.
Table tennis is really China’s national ball sport. It can be played without a basketball court or a football field, but it cannot be played without a table tennis table.
Just like that, time came to the 23rd in a blink of an eye. In the morning, Li Hao participated in the opening ceremony with the men's basketball team. Before, he only watched it on TV series, but now it feels very different to participate in it in person.
Gong Luming actually intended to let Li Hao serve as the Chinese flag bearer at the opening ceremony, but Li Hao refused. People's hearts are really elusive, and there is no need to steal the limelight from others.
………………………………………….
Tonight at 19.35pm, the Gymnasium of the School of Civil Affairs is a gymnasium that can accommodate 8,000 people. However, this gymnasium cannot withstand the enthusiasm of Chinese fans.
There is no way, Li Hao's national team debut, all fans want to enter the scene, but unfortunately, most of them can only watch Li Hao's debut on TV.
Because of Li Hao, the tickets for the first three games of the Chinese men's basketball team have been sold out long ago.
"Why do you feel a little nervous?" Nervousness rarely appears in Li Hao. During his NBA debut last year, Li Hao was more excited.
"Normally, whoever joins the national team will be nervous in the first game," veteran Liu Wei said with a smile.
"Weren't you nervous when you made your NBA debut last year?" Guo Ailun, who has a good relationship with Li Hao, asked.
"I'm not nervous." Guo Ailun said he didn't want to deal with Li Hao anymore.
Guo Ailun is injured, so I don't know if he will play in this game. Today's men's basketball starting list is Li Hao, Ding Yanyuhang, Zhou Peng, Yi Jianlian, and Zhou Qi.
In this starting lineup, playing against Singapore was basically a waste of time. There was nothing we could do about it. Singapore was at the bottom of the group. Only one of the twelve players on the team was taller than two meters, and the average height was less than 1.9 meters.
"Li Hao is on the stage. This is the first time Li Hao has put on the national jersey." No. 8 belongs to Kobe Bryant for the Lakers. Although Li Hao would probably let him go, Li Hao still chose No. 88. He wanted to Create your own number.
But in the national team, he has no problem wearing No. 8.
"The game is about to start. Let's see if Li Hao can continue his performance in the NBA in the international arena." As the players from both sides appeared on the stage, huge cheers rang out in the stands.
Zhou Qi flicked the basketball, and Yi Jianlian was injured. The latter sent it back, and Li Hao started to hold the ball.
"Li Hao held the ball, Li Hao dribbled the ball across half court, Li Hao made the shot." Yes, Li Hao made the shot, a three-pointer with a logo.
Li Hao was indeed a little nervous before going on the court, but after the game really started, Li Hao looked at the opponent's basket and had only one idea in his mind: win the game.
"Damn it, this is a shot. This is a national team game." Seeing Li Hao's logo shot, the fans looked at Li Hao in amazement.
On the bench on the sidelines, the national team teammates were also marveling at Li Hao's courage. This was a national team game, and you would not be scolded for missing a shot.
Even the head coach Gong Luming didn't react when Li Hao shot the header.
brush--
"In, the iconic long three-pointer, Li Hao has shot like this countless times in the NBA." Director Zhang, who was worried about how to defend Li Hao one second, became a popular science the next second.
"Enter" watching on TV and watching it live are indeed two different feelings. This is what the fans in the stands feel the most at this moment.
"This is a bit exciting," head coach Gong Luming said while holding his heart.
Before Gong Luming could recover from the excitement on the sidelines, Li Hao scored again. The Singapore point guard was stabbed away by Li Hao as soon as the ball passed the logo's hand.
When he was in the NBA, Li Hao had always played against top players. Now facing an unknown opponent, his ball control level was like slow motion in Li Hao's eyes.
Bang——
boom--
"5:0, another iconic scoring move." Li Hao finally lived up to his name today and defeated Huashan in the Chinese arena.
"Fuck!" Seeing Li Hao score five points in a row in the opening game, the fans could only say these two words.
Not everyone watches the NBA. Some fans only watch domestic or even national team games.
However, Li Hao's performance was not over yet. The Singapore point guard did not seem to believe in evil. He came to Li Hao with the ball again, and then made another steal. Li Hao once again performed a one-stop service, but this time Li Hao used another stunt. Windmill dunk.
After being intercepted twice by Li Hao, the opponent finally did not dare to hold the ball in front of Li Hao, but Singapore still failed to score because Li Hao was not the only one on the court at this moment.
