"That's what the boss means, he hopes you can forget something and live a good life," said Johnson.
A mockery emanated from Zhang Weifeng's face, staring at Johnson's eyes tightly until the other party twisted uneasily, and a burst of laughter burst out, as if he was mocking himself. Now the team's actions have made him begin to doubt the incident from that time, but now, nothing matters anymore.
Without sharpness in his eyes, Zhang Weifeng's feeling became decadent again, and his eyes became muddy. He put down the document and looked around deeply.
Leaving... Finally, he was about to leave. Finally, he took a look at the place where he had been staying for many years. He had no politeness and turned around and wanted to leave.
"I'll give you it!" Randy was the only player following him, and the eyes of others were still cold.
Zhang Weifeng paused and was silent.
"Zhang Weifeng, what do you mean? The boss said, you have to forget something." Just as Zhang Weifeng was about to leave the door of the conference room, Johnson came to hiss and shouted.
Still not stopping, facing the door, Zhang Weifeng's voice came: "I will forget it, but I won't want these dirty things, there is no need to bribe me with all my might."
Forgot?··· Everyone was silent in confusion.
Zhang Weifeng left.
Randy stood in front of the small door on the side of the arena, without any extra words, just watching the wounded man leave. Zhang Weifeng kept turning back and waved his hand. The seemingly indifferent appearance had already soaked Randy's eyes with tears.
I left like this, and I left simply.
Without ceremony, no one to send, no luggage, Zhang Weifeng left freely.
He knew in his heart that he would never return to this place. Instead of loving it, it would be better to leave without any worries.
Randy looked at the back of the old man who looked like the one who was drooling, and couldn't help feeling sad: I wonder if I will leave like this in the future.
Without too many goodbye words, Zhang Weifeng left a sentence: "Play well and don't act irritably."
Randy did not answer, but nodded to him. He was no longer the child who had always lived under Zhang Weifeng's wings. He had been in the league for three years and had already known how to protect himself and how to gain a foothold. At this time, he also had the courage to take a try and let everyone know him.
Take a try not only for yourself, but also for the purpose of continuing the dream of this veteran.
Dream? Dream! How easy it is!
It suddenly started raining in the sky, covering its eyes, and Randy slowly turned around.
This year did not seem as calm as it was on the surface.
"I'm pretty good at finding a way for myself. The old man is worthy of being an old man!"
"That's right, but finally he's gone, and the team will probably have a big operation."
"Yes, I finally didn't rely on the retirement in the team. In fact, it's good to retire. Keeping this way will only add to his career."
After Zhang Weifeng and Randy left, the people in the conference room seemed to suddenly regain their spirits and discussed in a low voice. The reason for this was that they had no place to like this yellow-skinned guy. Larry Hughes's face finally disappeared, his face was gloomy and his eyes flashed.
Instead of participating in the discussion, he came to the side of General Manager Johnson and asked softly: "It's really hard to understand why Zhang Weifeng accepted it so readily."
"He has to accept it." Johnson said lightly.
"Why? He didn't even fight for it, and he just accepted his fate?" That was a salary of nearly 4,000 yuan in two years!
"What if you don't accept your fate? The boss has already issued an order to freeze him. Do you think he can resist? Besides, he can get a lot of benefits by accepting the decision to retire."
After a pause, Johnson continued: "I sent someone to check his bank account, and now he can't afford this considerable liquidated damages!"
"What!! It's impossible~~" Larry opened his mouth wide in surprise. Zhang Weifeng has been in the league for so many years. In addition to the initial newcomer contract, he received at least 100 million in salary in the next few years. How could he not be able to afford the 10% penalty for liquidated damages?
"You don't understand his life, and even my old friend who has been in contact with him for many years can't see him clearly. He is the kind of person who is late to become a big shot. As a Chinese, Zhang Weifeng's health is not outstanding, which is an irreparable flaw. But he just controls the game in his hands with his excellent skills and sense of rhythm on the field. In his spare time, you can't see him at all. He is a person who is free and easy by nature and is enthusiastic about public welfare, and there are countless people in the world who need help."
"You mean his income is being invested on that?" Larry's eyes widened.
"Not bad. Over the years, conservatively estimated that he spent at least 100 million US dollars on it." When it comes to this, Johnson's words were full of admiration.
"If this happens, he should accept some advertising endorsements and commercial activities." Larry asked. As an NBA player, salary can only be part of it.
"This kind of thing cannot be forced, and even if he is short of money, he is unwilling to do so. No one knows the reason," said Johnson.
"Oh." Larry Hughes responded softly.
"Okay, let's not mention him anymore. The boss has something to do today, so I ask me to bring him the fine wine he has collected for decades to celebrate. You can't let him down. The team will rely entirely on you in the future." Johnson said with a smile.
"Haha, thank you first. As for the team, I'm here, I'll wait for next year, and the team will really turn over next year!" Holding the champion soul ring in his hand, Larry Hughes was full of energy.
It's raining?
When he left the stadium, Zhang Weifeng suddenly didn't know what to do. Over the years, he had no spare time except playing games and training.
The rhythm of life that had lasted for so many years was suddenly broken, which was really difficult to adapt to. He could also feel his decadence, and he reached out to take out the cigarette in his pocket and stuffed it into his mouth. He reached out to light it, and it was immediately extinguished by the rain, and then it was extinguished again.
As he walked, Zhang Weifeng suddenly shouted in silence: "MD, don't let me smoke a cigarette, damn God."
The rain became more and more urgent, just like God responding to Zhang Weifeng's scolding.
The rain wet his shoulders, then his body, until he was soaked.
Zhang Weifeng just wanted to walk like this. He needed to think carefully and think clearly about how he would live in the future. Who knew that the weather was not good. As the rain got heavier, the road was already filled with water vapor and could no longer see the road ahead.
Even though he was decadent, Zhang Weifeng would not joke about his body. He felt the pain of raindrops falling on his face, and he couldn't help but look around.
It was already early morning, and there were very few lights around the arena.
The rain washed the ground over and over again, and the water vapor was so strong that Zhang Weifeng felt that his eyes began to blur. His body was cold and he began to speed up his pace. And there was the exit in front, which was as bright as neon. He knew that it was a downtown city, and perhaps there was a place to shelter from the rain.
"Chi~Chi~Chi~Chi~Chi~Bang~~" When Zhang Weifeng was dazed into the downtown area, there was a sudden burst of car sound in his ears, followed by a crackling sound of brakes. However, because there was too much rain on the ground, it was no longer possible for the other party to brake.
Because of my nervousness, my mind became clear in an instant. Then I felt like my body was falling apart, and the pain pierced into my bone marrow, and I became dizzy.
When Zhang Weifeng lost consciousness, he was still unwilling to accept it: "Fuck, it's over, I must not scold God in the future."
It is because people are doing what they see, and even if Zhang Weifeng regrets it, it is too late. The successive bad luck has made Zhang Weifeng feel more decadent.
In fact, it is good to leave early. Zhang Weifeng thought like a flash in his mind, and then he closed his eyes tightly.
And just at this moment, a colorful aurora appeared in the distant sky.
Early the next morning, the whole of the United States was in chaos. Because Zhang Weifeng, known as the "cold-blooded killer", retired and retired at the golden age of 30. What is even more surprising is that he disappeared without any trace.
"See it? This is his car." Pointing to a shabby private sedan, General Manager Johnson told reporters.
"Oh? Obviously he didn't drive away last night, so where could he go?" Staring at the car in front of him that couldn't even see the brand, ESPN's ace reporter was stunned.
"This is strange. There is no trace of him in several streets around him. Can he still fly out of thin air?"
"That's right, they are all old players in the league. Do you still have to rely on these tricks to attract external attention? No wonder they are marginalized."
Looking at the buzzing reporters around, Johnson smiled intriguingly.
"Mr. Johnson, did you hear that Zhang Weifeng has chosen to retire?" Some senior reporters quickly came to their senses and did not join the discussion, but remembered the main purpose of their visit today.
"Yes, this is his own choice. The team has also tried to keep it many times, but the results are not good, so he is determined to leave. As one of the leaders of the team's last era, the boss chose to respect it." Johnson said with regret on his face.
"As a hero to win the championship, will Zhang Weifeng's jersey be retired?" a Chinese reporter asked softly.
"This needs to be decided by the team management. He has been the team leader. I believe the bosses will make the right decision on this." Johnson still smiled.
"If you have any questions, please wait until a press conference held in the stadium later!" Before the reporters could ask, Johnson left the underground parking lot under the escort of security personnel.
China, the capital of basketball, is shrouded in a vibrant city, Nangang.
This is a basketball city formed a few years ago. At this moment, the streets and alleys are already full of people.
"What happened?" Zhang Yushan looked around blankly, just got up, preparing for morning exercises and running. As soon as she went out, she felt a sudden silence. The sports supermarket opposite was already surrounded by people, and there were really a lot of people, and a few were even crowded on the road. On the wall facing the south was a 200-inch LCD screen with groups of basketball scenes playing on it, and the sound echoed in the air.
It was surprisingly quiet, and everyone stood quietly. It seemed as if they regarded the small place as a cinema, and looked up at the big screen in an orderly manner. Zhang Yushan also quickly heard the voice of the live broadcaster, and a familiar name was repeatedly held, Zhang Weifeng.
What is played on the screen is a classic moment in Zhang Weifeng's career, and the live broadcaster also talks about his years of struggle in the NBA with great sensational feelings.
Two NBA championship trophys, one of the former Iron Triangle, the main player of the championship lineup. Once magically won the finals MVP, seven times selected as All-Stars, one for the best team, three for the best team, one for the best team, one for the best team, one for the best team, one for the best team, and so on. These honors will be recorded in history forever.
Although Zhang Weifeng has average physical fitness, he has gained a foothold in the NBA with his own efforts and super high basketball IQ. As the first outside player in China to truly go out, he is the pride of everyone.
Although his current influence may not be as strong as that of the "little giant" Yao Ming, this great personal honor is definitely at the Hall of Fame level.
But because of his personality, almost most people believe that after Zhang Weifeng retires, he may become the second Bob McAdu. He is destined to be underestimated and cannot be treated as he deserves.
"Let us remember Zhang Weifeng's series of wonderful moments together." The live broadcaster said in a low and sad voice.
Afterwards, the specially produced invincible battle scenes of Zhang Weifeng began to be played on the big screen.
There was no cheer or praise, and everyone stood quietly, looking at the scenes in front of them in silence. They knew that after today, Zhang Weifeng would really become history.
There are many people here who are orphans adopted by Zhang Weifeng, and many of them are funded by Zhang Weifeng. They will always remember this quiet guy who only smiles faintly in their minds.
Some people began to regret the mistakes Zhang Weifeng made that year, while others lamented Zhang Weifeng's bad situation in recent years.
At nine o'clock in the morning, the NBA also officially announced Zhang Weifeng's retirement.
At the press conference, Zhang Weifeng was not seen, and this ancient guy did not attend. This was his retirement press conference. General manager Johnson presented the termination letter signed by both parties and the retirement statement signed by Zhang Weifeng, and claimed that he had refused the team's repeated attempts to keep him, Zhang Weifeng had already left the team.
The scene kept flashing, dunking, killing, and roaring. The live broadcaster also gave this explanation in time, gradually reaching the decadence of recent years.
Looking at his career, some people suddenly understood Zhang Weifeng at this moment. Those who don’t like him also shut up their mouths and remain silent at this moment. Perhaps it is the respect for this veteran who has been struggling in the NBA for many years.
Gradually, a sob sound came from the crowd. Zhang Yushan found that everyone was looking at her, so she turned around and ran into the house. Without the attention, she finally burst into tears.
"I know you are unhappy, why don't you come back? Don't you know that I've been waiting for you here? Are those things really worth it? Fool, fool~~" Zhang Yushan suddenly muttered to herself in tears.
Perhaps it was extreme sadness, she just lay on the bed, and there was no sound.
Maybe she fell asleep, she would see Zhang Weifeng who was missing day and night in her dream.
