Chapter 1 Qin Yu: If you lack talent, then repeat it to the extreme.
In 2040, the 37th Summer Olympic Games will be held on American soil.
August 18th, basketball finals.
Elleya Diamond Arena, California, USA.
Inside the enormous stadium, which can hold 80,000 spectators, the atmosphere was bustling with noise and the lights were flashing.
The shouts were like waves of the sea, one higher than the next.
On the central ceiling, on four massive metal screens exceeding 1000 inches in size, the ultimate battle is in full swing.
Bang bang bang.
The Chinese Bayi team was pushed to their own basket by the Dream Team.
10s
9s
…,
1s
The score is 101-99.
Dream Team 101.
Bayi team 99.
Can the Bayi Rockets continue to create miracles?
Inside the stadium, tens of thousands of spectators from China clenched their fists tightly, watching the Dream Team's fierce advance and suffocating, impenetrable defense.
boom!
A figure suddenly rose up from under the backboard of the Bayi team.
On the vest, the number 12 in gold on a red background is like lightning piercing the night.
He is China's new king!
A tomahawk dunk?
The Dream Team, which never plays a Game 7, was defeated by the Bayi team and dragged into a Game 7!
Victory!
defeat!
flat!
The final has come full circle!
After the Bayi team suffered a crushing defeat in the first three games, losing 0-3 in a row,...
Bayi team's third consecutive victory!
The Dream Team suffered a crushing 0-3 defeat in three straight games.
Lin Xiao turned the tide, overcoming the difficulty of facing the strongest defensive team.
He achieved the remarkable feat of scoring over 40 points, dishing out over 10 assists, and grabbing over 10 rebounds in three consecutive games.
On this land of the Dream Team, they achieved a result that surpassed the original ace record belonging to the Dream Team!
The cheers from the Chinese audience were deafening, almost blowing the roof off the stadium.
In the previous two Blue Star Cup finals, the Dream Team won the championship with a crushing 4-0 victory!
Whether it was the British Bryan team or the French Rafael team, even though they were ranked second and third in the world, they had no chance against the Dream Team. There was a huge gap in strength.
Not to mention the Bayi team, which is ranked eighth.
But this time, this overwhelming momentum was stopped by the Dream Team's 3-0 score, when everyone was in despair, by the Bayi team led by Lin Xiao!
"G6 - It's a tie!"
"China Central Television, this is China Central Television."
"I am Zhuo Jun, the on-site host and reporter."
"Lin Xiao has once again delivered a miraculous, decisive victory!"
"The game has gone to a decisive seventh game for the first time in history!"
Despite losing the first three games, the Chinese Bayi team has now won three in a row!
Is it a case of praising by first criticizing?
No, this isn't a case of praising by first criticizing; it's simply because China has produced a Lin Xiao.
Regardless of the outcome of the G7, Lin Xiao has led China to create a miracle.
'
The live stream footage was transmitted back to China. In the broadcast studio, the usually extremely calm and professional commentator was now bursting with passion, waving his fist and roaring in a trembling voice!
"We won!"
"I've added a follow-up comment; now it's all about the seventh game!"
The scene of the host shouting in the live broadcast room and the commentator's face turning red with excitement was displayed in front of everyone watching the live broadcast.
As expected of a CCTV host, with solid professional skills, after taking a deep breath, he said, "Now the camera continues to be handed over to the on-site host, Zhuo Jun. I believe everyone is eager to hear Lin Xiao's voice as soon as possible after he made that game-winning shot."
"Lin Xiao, what do you think of that game-winning goal? You are now undoubtedly the best player in the country, no, you're not inferior to any of the Dream Team's ace players!"
Zhuo Jun, his face beaming with excitement, trembled as he held the microphone to Lin Xiao's lips.
Lin Xiao took the microphone, glanced at Qin Yu in the distance who looked somewhat unwilling and dejected, and a hint of dejection flashed in her eyes that no one else could detect.
Qin Yu is that person's younger brother.
Qin Yu's stage is not in this competition.
If only that person were still here, this year's competition would be a stage for him and that person.
Unfortunately, there is no such thing.
"Ahem~" Lin Xiaoqing cleared her throat and took the microphone from Zhuo Jun.
"Talented people emerge in every generation. This time, if my teammates hadn't worked so hard to exhaust the potential of the Dream Team's main players in the first three games, we wouldn't have been able to succeed in the last three games! Of course, Qin Yu, who also works as the team doctor, deserves credit as well."
"This is not the result of my efforts alone, but the collective effort. This is the spirit of the Bayi team."
"But you managed a triple-double against their impenetrable defense!" Zhuo Jun exclaimed excitedly.
As Zhuo Jun uttered the words "triple double," the live stream's popularity soared to new heights.
Countless comments flooded the screen~
"Lin Xiao is too modest. This is the skill of a number one player: 38 points, 20 rebounds, and 20 assists!"
"Tonight's MVP!"
"This MVP award was won while suppressing the monster Hawkins and Capone. The value of this award is undeniable. What else could it be but number one?"
"Shh, just know that, our idol is really humble."
"Wow, Lin Xiao is so handsome!"
"Really! I swear, I'll only be a fan of Lin Xiao for the rest of my life." In the live stream, female bloggers who had been brought in by some unknown channel instantly flooded the chat with comments like "I love Lin Xiao" and "I want to have Lin Xiao's babies," but they were immediately muted by the administrator.
The interview continued.
Qin Yu, who had just been glanced at by Lin Xiao, loosened his tightly clenched fist.
Lin Xiao didn't consider himself number one because he missed his older brother Qin Daoyao.
Why not give him a chance to take the stage, a chance to avenge his brother and sister-in-law, a chance to clear the name of his beloved brother and sister-in-law?
If Qin Dao were still alive, this generation would be the strongest duo!
No, perhaps he will have an older brother who is the first person in China.
China's head coach, Lu Shan, glanced at Qin Yu, saw the dissatisfaction in Qin Yu's eyes, and shook his head.
"Besides hard work, there's no talent."
This is the definition he gave to Qin Yu.
Allowing Qin Yu to sit on the bench in the finals was already the greatest tolerance he could show and kindness to those who work hard but lack natural talent.
Lushan certainly knew Qin Dao, but unfortunately Qin Dao had an accident eight years ago and died unexpectedly.
The reason for nurturing Qin Yu was perhaps that Qin Yu might have some talent in the Qin Dao, but unfortunately things didn't go as planned.
Qin Yu felt the gaze of Lushan, the gaze of the Lushan coach who believed in talent above all else!
"Head coach, come off the court, I want to play." Qin Yu didn't say these words aloud, but he could already read them in Coach Lushan's eyes.
What the Bayi team needs now is victory.
What China needs now is victory.
Everyone's efforts
It was all for the sake of this moment of triumph.
Qin Yu understood, but he was truly unwilling!
He did not fulfill his brother's wish.
Qin Yu looked at Lin Xiao, who was being interviewed, raised his fist and waved it, joining the people around him in cheering for Lin Xiao's game-winning shot.
Qin Yu, who was always on the bench, was like a passerby in official matches. Except for the initial attention he received, everyone treated him as a substitute who never played.
Every time he's on the roster, every time he's on the water cooler, every time he's on the cheerleading squad.
Qin Yu persisted in his insistence to tell the world that his brother, Qin Dao, was the most dazzling genius!
Qin Yu simply wanted to prove that Qin Dao was right.
"Qin Yu, you're better than your older brother. From now on, I'll be counting on you to shine! I think you can win the Diamond Stadium championship trophy!"
People have long forgotten Qin Dao, that unparalleled genius, that rising star who was brought down by a meteorite.
On their way to America, Qin Dao and his girlfriend, who were traveling with him, were hijacked by terrorists. In the end, the two of them appeared on the terrorists' kill list and were never found!
Qin Yu carries the expectations and blood feud of his older brother, but no matter how hard he trains, he cannot develop the talent his brother spoke of.
However, being able to sit on the sidelines under Lushan's tutelage is still considered exceptionally solid, at least in terms of having extremely solid fundamentals.
But solid foundation is not the same as talent.
Talent—at the age of 15, he could jump from beyond the free-throw line and dunk over Qin Dao, a high school senior. That's talent.
Qin Dao never lied to Qin Yu.
Qin Yu had never understood what his brother meant by Qin Yu's talent.
Dream Team's rest area.
With a towel draped over his head, the 219cm tall Capone suddenly looked up, ripped the towel off, and threw it heavily to the ground, panting heavily: "Next game, I want to start!"
Aura was taken aback by Lin Xiao's 219cm height. After glancing at Lin Xiao opposite her, she nodded silently.
China has truly produced a treasure, but the Dream Team is not just about Capon.
Even top players like Capone and Hawkins, there are still three other players on the team besides these two.
In Game 7, the outcome is so clear that there's no need to overthink it.
Even though Lin Xiao of China is at his peak right now, what can he do?
Looking at Lin Xiao and the Chinese Bayi team, Ola's lips curled into a slightly sarcastic smile.
"Brother Lin Xiao, this is a specially formulated electrolyte solution tailored to your body."
Outside the Erleya Diamond Arena, the Bayi team walked toward their waiting shuttle bus.
Next up is the decisive Game 7, which will take place a week later.
After letting it sit for 15 minutes to achieve the best taste, Qin Yu handed Lin Xiao the specially formulated electrolyte solution.
Looking back at Lin Xiao, who was recovering from electrolyte imbalance, Lu Shan was even happier than when he looked at his daughter.
Regardless of the outcome of this G7, China has already achieved the best possible result.
From being ranked eighth in the world to a 3-3 tie in the final tiebreaker!
This has completely exceeded expectations.
If he can win, that would be even better, as it would provide a perfect ending for his retirement next year.
At that moment, Lushan's smile vanished abruptly, replaced by terror.
A dump truck sped towards Lin Xiao, bypassing the stadium's security checkpoint.
"Lin Xiao!"
"Lin Xiao!"
Amidst gasps of surprise, the truck was already less than five meters away from Lin Xiao.
Qin Yu felt the truck behind him, and his hair stood on end.
After discarding the electrolytes, all the muscles in my body contracted and vibrated rapidly, as if breathing. In that instant, the power within my body broke through to its limit and twisted into a single rope.
Extreme neural recruitment capacity!
Repeat until you break the limit!
That's a talent too!
The strength far exceeded that of previous team physical tests bench presses, and it exploded at this moment!
His surging palms shot out towards Lin Xiao.
Before Lin Xiao's horrified and shocked eyes, he was instantly pushed away by a force that was both gentle and extremely powerful.
Even Hawkins, the monster of the Dream Team, would be nothing more than a little rabbit in the face of this power.
A dump truck sped past Lin Xiao!
Lin Xiao saw clearly the sports betting poster clutched in the hand of the middle-aged American man inside the dump truck!
Bang! ! !
A loud bang then reached everyone's ears, and Qin Yu's vision went black.
After a throbbing pain in his head, Qin Yu heard a voice calling to him.
"Qin Yu, wake up! The sports meet requires registration, and your deskmate has signed you up." Wu Yun, who sits behind Qin Yu, pats Qin Yu on the back.
"What registration?!"
Qin Yu opened his eyes, and the last rays of the setting sun shone on his desk.
Everything before me was familiar yet somewhat strange, and a bittersweet feeling of reunion welled up in my eyes.
Suddenly, my brain felt like it was being stirred up by countless steel bars, and my nerves were severed.
Qin Yu winced in pain, clenched his teeth, and let out a muffled groan. He instinctively closed his lips tightly, refusing to utter a sound of pain.
The memories in my mind shattered with that one moment.
However, it comes quickly and goes quickly.
Qin Yu, his face deathly pale, looked at Wu Yun.
At that moment, a disdainful voice came from the side.
"Transfer student, don't drag us down."
Zhou Biao looked at Qin Yu, who was covered in sweat, and said coldly.
He didn't want to team up with this transfer student whose physical abilities were unknown and whose academic performance was at the bottom of the class to play basketball.
There's no future in it.
"If we come in last place this time, don't blame us for being ruthless." Feeling the gaze coming from the podium, Zhou Biao looked at Qin Yu and sneered.
Qin Yu is about 183cm tall and rather thin.
Qin Yu didn't look at Zhou Biao, but instead looked at his deskmate standing on the podium.
Class monitor Xin Zhiyan wrote down the names of Qin Yu and Wu Yun among the participants in the basketball team.
"Enough, Zhou Biao. You're outmatched, and now you're trying to shift the blame. You're cowardly before the battle even begins. What kind of behavior is that?"
Xin Zhiyan interrupted Zhou Biao's attempt to shift blame as soon as she saw him start.
"Oh, that's easier said than done. You, class monitor, why don't you go and do it yourself!"
"I'll announce another 5000 meters," Qin Yu interrupted Zhou Biao just as he was about to continue mocking Xin Zhiyan.
"You're reporting the 5000 meters? Are you sure, Qin Yu?" Xin Zhiyan asked, somewhat embarrassed.
Qin Yu seems to have a thing for him, and he doesn't object, because Qin Yu is the kind of person who is quiet and not annoying.
Qin Yu felt a warmth in his heart when he heard Xin Zhiyan's concerned question.
Can everything start over?
Because of his stubbornness in his past life, he actually pushed away his dearest Xin Zhiyan and disappeared without a trace.
This time, he will definitely seize the opportunity.
"Since no one else has reported it, I'll fill in the gap."
Xin Zhiyan registered him without his consent.
Qin Yu did not reject her as he had in his previous life, but instead actively shared Xin Zhiyan's burdens.
Xin Zhiyan was taken aback by Qin Yu's words.
Has Qin Yu changed his ways today?
Normally, Qin Yu can only say one or two words at most in an hour, and he always has a poker face.
Today, she seemed to see tenderness in Qin Yu's eyes.
"Okay, then." Somewhat surprised, Xin Zhiyan looked around the audience and found that no one else had signed up for the 5000 meters, so she wrote down Qin Yu's name.
They then began allocating slots for other projects.
Seeing Xin Zhiyan write down her name, Qin Yu began to make plans in his mind.
If you don't have talent, then repeat!
This statement is the best medicine before you discover your talent.
To embody these eight words is a talent in itself.
and,
The ultimate refinement through countless trials and tribulations, the ultimate repetition, can reshape everyone's talent.
That's the ability to recruit neurons!
"Hey, what's wrong? Afraid of embarrassing yourself in basketball? Quickly sign up for the 5000 meters to make up for it."
Zhou Biao, who is 195cm tall, stood up and looked at Qin Yu.
"To make up for it, I just gave my class an extra ten points."
"Ten points? That's a first place! Kid, I bet you drank some horse urine somewhere and you're still drunk. Should I wake you up by spraying you in the toilet?"
Zhou Biao sneered.
"Isn't there still a month left?" Qin Yu's expression remained unchanged in the face of Zhou Biao's sarcasm.
Qin Yu continued, "Besides, your water pipe isn't going to wake anyone up. You don't want it to get eaten by a hen as soon as you put it out."
"Old hen?" Zhou Biao was stunned, not quite understanding Qin Yu's meaning.
"Boss, he said that's a little bug!"
"What?!" Zhou Biao's face turned red and then ashen.
Snapped!
Zhou Biao slammed his hand on the table and stepped forward.
However, feeling Xin Zhiyan's cold gaze from the podium, Zhou Biao's breathing became heavy and short. If it weren't for the fact that the person he liked was Xin Zhiyan's best friend and that he needed Xin Zhiyan to act as a go-between, he would have definitely beaten Qin Yu to a pulp!
"You're asking for it!" Zhou Biao said fiercely, staring at Qin Yu.
"Class monitor, I advise you not to struggle anymore. Our Class 9 of Senior Three is just like this, the bottom line among ordinary classes. If you want this guy to join, the rest of us will quit." Zhou Biao said, looking at the others.
Since Xin Zhiyan wanted to protect Qin Yu, Zhou Biao decided to try a different approach.
"Yes, yes, class monitor, we're all quitting."
"I'm not afraid of god-like opponents, but I'm afraid of pig-like teammates."
"You!" Xin Zhiyan glared angrily at Zhou Biao and the others.
If Zhou Biao and the others quit, the Class 9 basketball team in the first year of high school will really be impossible to form.
If Qin Yu is not allowed to participate, at least the number of participants will be sufficient to form a basketball team.
Seeing Xin Zhiyan in a dilemma, Zhou Biao continued:
"Then just report it, and see if we can get up there."
"Zhou Biao, you..." For a moment, Xin Zhiyan on the podium was speechless.
"Zhou Biao." Qin Yu clearly and slowly uttered the two words, looking at Zhou Biao.
"How about we play a round? If I lose, I quit; if I win, none of you can quit."
"Who do you think you are? You think you can just listen to me after you win? What's with all the fuss about a transfer student? I heard you got into Jiangzhou No. 3 Middle School through connections, not because you're a sports major."
In the seat in front of Zhou Biao, another basketball player whose name was written on the blackboard turned his head and looked at Qin Yu with a sneer.
"Qin Yu, now is not the time to be stubborn." Xin Zhiyan on the podium frowned slightly.
As his deskmate, he knew Qin Yu's situation in the last few PE classes. Qin Yu had an advantage in height and was also good-looking.
If you really go into a one-on-one physical confrontation in basketball, you're bound to make a fool of yourself.
Now look at Zhou Biao, who is full of temper, and Qin Yu.
If the two lose their temper during the match and injure each other, then Class 9 of Grade 11 will be truly doomed in the school sports meet basketball tournament.
Could it be that Qin Yu, this newcomer, can actually overpower several people?!
Basketball still relies on individual skill.
Although it's been less than three weeks since the start of the semester, as deskmates and paired together in PE class, she has never seen Qin Yu touch a basketball.
He chose Qin Yu because he was attracted to Qin Yu's height.
Class 9 of Grade 11 is considered a mediocre class at Jiangzhou No. 3 Middle School, with only so-so students. Qin Yu is already considered one of the tallest students in the class.
"If you want to die a quick death, that's fine too." Zhou Biao was taken aback, not expecting Qin Yu to be courting death.
Although he felt that Qin Yu was not worthy of fighting him, he didn't mind letting Qin Yu know what reality was when the other party came to slap him in the face.
He glanced at Wu Yun, who was sitting in the back row behind Qin Yu, and revealed a playful smile.
"But it's three against three, so you'll need to find another person."
"Qin Yu, I'll find you another person." Wu Yun, who was behind Qin Yu, said this, but then saw Qin Yu shake his head.
In just a short while, Qin Yu had reorganized his memories.
Qin Yu returned to seven years ago, the second year after Qin Dao's accident, and the first year of Qin Yu's despondency.
It is now 2033. Five years from now, Lu Shan, the future head coach of the Chinese national team and the Bayi team, will also be in Jiangzhou.
This time, Qin Yu wants to show Lushan that talent is not the only standard.
Seeing Qin Yu showing off, Zhou Biao immediately said, "You don't actually expect to fight him one-on-one, do you?"
If Qin Yu agrees, he will slap Qin Yu in the face and teach him a lesson.
Basketball isn't just about being tall!
