Chapter Fourteen Good Morning, Legend
On the start of the new season, Wei Xia conducted track and field training and swimming team training. When she rushed to the gymnasium at 4 pm, her feet were soft.
He heard that a college scout from the Big East League came to watch the game. If the game was not good, it would affect the evaluation, but now his feet are soft.
He made the worst preparations, what would happen if he didn't play well or something.
But as soon as the game started, the shackles that clamped the lower limbs like carrying a load suddenly disappeared. Wei Xia ran like flying, running back and forth, and he still didn't know how to shoot, but his cutting and counterattack were extremely effective in high school games.
His mother brought his brother, sister, and Shasha Cassidy's support team to make him increase his full power every time he feels weak under his feet.
In the first game of the new season, he played 30 minutes, scoring 26 points, 10 rebounds and 2 assists.
"Another star of tomorrow from Raul Merion High School is rising. I believe that in the near future, he will be the target of the major prestigious schools in Pennsylvania and even the United States!" The live event commentator praised Wei Xia after watching the game, "He has Kobe-like scoring instinct!"
Wei Xia didn't know what scoring instinct is. If he were asked to say it, he would say that he was still far from it.
Just after the competition, when Wei Xia returned home, Mei Chen received a call. He just chatted casually and covered the phone and shouted: "Philly!"
"mom?"
Wei Xia walked up to her strangely, not knowing what was going on.
Mei Chen smiled excitedly: "Your phone number is there."
"Hello, I'm Wei Xia." Wei Xia took the call.
He didn't expect that the call was called by people from DePaul University, and they invited Wei Xia to visit DePaul University.
This is a more formal way to solicit than just sending a full scholarship invitation.
The men's basketball team in the first-tier league of ncaa can issue 13 full scholarships every year, which means that you can send it as long as you like someone. Whether to accept it or not is someone else's business, whether to give it to you or not.
Since you can give it as long as you like it, full scholarship is not uncommon for top students.
If you invite high school players to visit the university on-site, you can take the opportunity to get the coaching team close to it and lobby.
If it were Wei Xia two years ago, he would jump up excitedly and might accidentally drop the phone to the ground. Now, what he is thinking is how much training he would lose if he accepts it.
After more than ten seconds of thinking, his reply to the other party was "I have to think about it again."
The other party didn't bother him much, so he asked and hung up the phone.
"How is it?" Mei Chen's eyes were shiny, as if she had received an invitation, "Do they want to give you a full scholarship?"
"They didn't say... they just invited me to their place to see the scenery..."
"Great!" Mei Chen said excitedly, "This is more formal than giving you a scholarship directly!"
Wei Xia scratched her ears, "Mom, I don't really want to go."
Mei Chen's excitement was half gone: "Why? This is a rare opportunity."
"At the beginning of the season, I was full of training schedules, and I didn't even have time to date. I really didn't have time to 'see the scenery'." Wei Xia looked like she was busy and couldn't find time.
Mei Chen smiled and said, "Philly, time is like a woman's career line, and there is always a squeeze."
"mom!"
"Okay, you can do this yourself. You'll have evening tea soon. Go and wash your hands."
Wei Xia replied OK.
What is evening tea? People with curiosity may be Baidu, and then they find out, "Oh, it turns out that British people like to drink tea so much." However, Mei Chen's so-called evening tea is different from the tea you imagined.
"Evening Tea" is the name of dinner.
Wei Xia heard from Wei Mingliang that the British have the best talent for naming in the world.
Any category, see how they are named: from prison (abessia, strange road) to bars (cats and violins, lambs and flags), to wildflowers (stitch wort, female turtle, snatcher, snatcher, fever chrysanthemum), to football team names (Sheffield Wednesday, Aston Manor, Queen of the South), you'll be fascinated by all of a sudden.
There is no doubt that the British talent for choosing place names is beyond the reach of other fields. Wei Mingliang, who had been in the UK for a while when he was young, heard that there were 30,000 place names in the UK, and half of them were either eye-catching or interesting in any aspect. Some villages sounded like hiding an ancient, perhaps shameful secret, while some villages sounded like people coming out of a 19th-century novel.
Therefore, evening tea is not tea; there is no steak or candied fruit in candied steak; aromatherapy fried eggs are actually biscuits, etc. embarrassing things happen at Wei Xia’s house almost every day.
Wei Xia believes that his mother has at least one thing better than 99% of the British, that is, his cooking skills are not as terrible as the rumored British. From childhood to adulthood, he maintained the frequency of being scared by the food prepared by his mother once a month so that he would not starve to death.
"I heard that Philip was attracted to the college team?"
At the dinner table, my sister took the initiative to mention this matter.
My brother always thinks that Wei Xia cannot make a name for himself. Even if he can succeed, he should not be in the basketball field. Therefore, he is still a dissatisfied argument, just like a fool who suddenly makes a fortune looks down on his accomplices who worked with him in the past: "I guess it's a team in the third-tier league..."
"Is there anyone in the third-tier alliance called DePaul University?" Wei Xia asked softly.
"DePaul University?" Wei Qiu asked in surprise.
Mei Chen smiled and stood up for Wei Xia: "That's right, it's the DePaul University that has reached the final four twice and entered the March Championship many times-" Just as Wei Qiu was about to change his vision to Wei Xia and said something "I'm sorry I shouldn't look down on you", my mother changed her tone, "It's a pity that Philip doesn't want to go."
My sister wanted to know why, but my brother opened his mouth and was a "stupid". The next half an hour repeatedly told Wei Xia what a rare opportunity it was. It was not until Mei Chen reminded "Friends" that he was gone.
Thanks to Friends!
Wei Xia accompanied them to watch the latest episode of "Friends" and then took a shower and went to bed.
He traveled through time and space as usual and came to Havlicek.
It's still the morning of the new day.
Wei Xia found that every time he came to Haflicek, he was about to go out to school. When he finished his day and experienced it, his consciousness would leave his body and return to the real world.
This is beneficial.
Wei Xia did not have to call other people's parents, nor did he have to be intimate with his girlfriend on behalf of Havlicek, so he did not take advantage of this.
He looked in the mirror. Havlicek in the mirror was still very immature. He undoubtedly didn't know how great he would be in the future.
Havlicek, who was also only 183 cm in the old days, reminded Wei Xia that there was indeed a parallel curve between them.
"Good morning, legend."
Weisha said to John Haflicke, a high school student in the mirror.
