After Zhao Feiyang asked his agent David Stock to refute the Pearl Sharks' offer, the Liaoning team and the Xinjiang team soon called respectively. Their prices were both around 30 million, and they really didn't have much to compare with the price alone. Big advantage, so they also have some additional benefits.
Even so, the conditions of these teams look very different.
For Zhao Feiyang, it seems that there is no difference in who he chooses! Regardless of whether the team is strong or weak, he only believes in one thing. Under his leadership, as long as the hips are not stretched to the extreme, those teams will definitely change.
At this special moment, a strange phone call came to Zhao Feiyang.
"Hey, who are you looking for?"
"Is it Feiyang? I am Wang Zhizhi."
Wang Zhizhi?
Zhao Feiyang was shocked when he heard this name!
Wang Zhizhi is different for Chinese basketball. He is a Chinese player who landed in the NBA earlier than Yao Ming. Although he is not the first, he is the one worthy of attention.
It can even be said that some people once thought that Wang Zhizhi's talent was higher than that of Yao Ming.
However, even so, Wang Zhizhi's career was not smooth. The process of leaving the domestic league and going to the NBA was full of twists and turns.
After finally joining the NBA team, he was later criticized for the "defection scandal". He was introverted and didn't know how to communicate with the China Men's Basketball Team at the time. As a result, the misunderstanding between the two parties became bigger and bigger, almost making him Wang Zhizhi's career was interrupted.
When he failed to stay in the NBA, Wang Zhizhi chose to return to China sadly. For a long time, his relationship with the national team was tense, and he was always excluded by some people in the national team.
It was not until Li Yuanwei, the later director of the Basketball Management Center, took office that he used various methods to ease the relationship between the national team and Wang Zhizhi, allowing Wang Zhizhi to successfully return to the national team.
His career has undoubtedly served as a warning to subsequent players, including Yao Ming, who was playing for the Sharks at the time. He also had conflicts with some people in the Basketball Association over his decision to go to the NBA.
It was precisely because Wang Zhizhi's end that year was not good that even Yao Ming had to choose to return to China to participate in games during the offseason. He even had to participate in the "warm-up" Stankovic Cup basketball game.
High-intensity competition also became a key reason for the end of his career.
"Hello!"
When he heard that the visitor was Wang Zhizhi, Zhao Feiyang's attitude became very respectful. The opponent is a hero of the Chinese Men's Basketball Team. For Chinese Basketball, he is one of the monuments and a model worthy of admiration by all those who come after him.
Wang Zhizhi had just chosen to retire after the end of last season, so Zhao Feiyang didn't know exactly what the other party wanted to do when he called at this time.
"Feiyang, I've been paying attention to your news recently. I heard that you might also stay in the domestic league to play... I'm a straight person, so I won't talk nonsense to you! Actually! I want to invite you to join the Eighth Route Army. a team......"
"Yes, the Bayi team is indeed doing very poorly now, but one thing we have is that no matter what the record is, we insist on using an all-Chinese class lineup to face the game... I think at this point, maybe You will also think like me, no matter what other teams have done to recruit foreign players, the Bayi team will never do this. We hope that local players can also perform well..."
"Actually, I don't know how to persuade you to join! The Bayi team is really not interesting right now, and we don't have much to offer you. The annual salary of 20 million is the only thing we can offer... .”
"The team is special, so there is no way... You know, the money is already our limit! But as long as you are willing to join, the team can meet any of your requirements... No matter what Whoever you want can be the head coach..."
"If the NBA lockout ends, you can choose to go back at any time! We will never stop you... Compared to other teams, we have no advantage, but we have enough sincerity... ..”
What Wang Zhizhi said was true, but Zhao Feiyang did not respond.
Wang Zhizhi thought that Zhao Feiyang didn't despise such conditions at all, so he wasn't angry at all, and just sighed helplessly.
"Alas! In fact, it's normal for you not to choose to join us. The team is like this... let alone you. If I hadn't come out of the Bayi team, I probably wouldn't have chosen to join... ..”
"But to be honest, the only difference between joining other teams and the Bayi team is that you can easily help them win the championship by joining other teams. Those teams do not lack foreign players or national team players. You can get that money just by doing whatever you want..."
"But in the Bayi team, we don't have such strong foreign aid, nor so many outstanding local players. If you join us, you are simply challenging an impossible task..."
"If you come, there will definitely be many people who think that even you can't lead the Bayi team to victory..."
What Wang Zhizhi said was rather self-deprecating.
Zhao Feiyang also understood that the other party was actually using provocation. But what I have to admit is that Zhao Feiyang has always liked to challenge his own limits.
His strength is already very strong. If he joins the Shougang team or the Guangdong team, there will be no need to fight other teams at all! The impact of his joining is more exaggerated than that of Kevin Durant joining the Warriors.
Marbury brought a qualitative change to the Shougang team! Now that Zhao Feiyang has joined them, with the current lineup of the Shougang team, they will definitely win the championship next season!
It can be said that the other teams don't even need to think about it, it's enough to directly understand that they are running with them!
On the other hand, joining the Guangdong team is the same.
The Guangdong team has won many championships. It can be said that because of Yi Jianlian and those national team players, they have always been one of the strongest teams in the CBA.
Many times they are the ones guarding the ring in the finals, while other teams take turns coming up to compete. As long as they can defeat the Guangdong team, then the championship is expected, but if they cannot defeat the Guangdong team, then the championship belongs to the Guangdong team.
This is really too impressive for other teams!
"Brother Da Zhi! In fact, it's not impossible to join the Bayi team, but I have to think about it carefully... Also, since you can't offer better conditions, if I join the Bayi team, How about letting the whole team wear my line of sneakers?”
"This is a request I made!"
"If this requirement is met, I have no problem with the contract you offer... As for other situations, I'd better go to the Bayi team to have a look before I have a chance!"
