Return to 2002: Freestyle Superstar

Chapter 38 The summer passed by in a flash

Please explain and will update later.

The first update is around 6 pm, and the second update is around 9 pm. The two updates are closer.

……

Although Dongzhou City is a third-tier city, it has also built several tennis courts. There are public courts that require payment, and there are also training courts affiliated with the Sports Bureau.

It's just that there are no professional tennis players in a small city like Dongzhou City, and the courts have been abandoned for a long time.

Chen Ran obtained the exclusive right to use this stadium through his relationship with the Sports Bureau of Eastern Zhejiang Province, which in his words allowed him to save some venue fees.

Although he can practice in the "simulated training ground", there are still some methods to hide his actions.

Chen Ran spent a few hours at the Sports Bureau's training court, practicing a few serves, and thinking about his future plans.

"First of all, we need to train specially for two months and strive to increase the technical attributes to 70 points!"

"Then follow the training plan given by the coach to exercise your body in an orderly manner and improve your physical fitness."

"Try to transform yourself this summer!"

Although Chen Ran has several ways to make money in his mind, most of his time is spent on training, and it is obviously impossible to make money.

Let your parents do some business?
Then he shook his head decisively and rejected the idea.

Chen Ran even thought that even if he gave his parents some money-making ideas, they would probably still lose money. After all, this business is not as interesting as playing mahjong or playing cards with friends.

My parents had never thought about making more money before, but now that I have made money through playing games and been admitted to a key high school, they are even less likely to have the idea of ​​working hard to make money.

As for the huge sum of 12 yuan, Chen Ran did not tell his parents about it.When he signed the agreement with the Sports Bureau of East Zhejiang Province, he took his parents' ID cards and signed it directly on his behalf without informing them at all.

Auditing in this era is relatively lax, and it just follows a single process.

The parents only knew that their son was admitted to a key high school because he was good at basketball and tennis, and they were very happy.

As for when Chen Ran learned tennis and from whom, they were laymen. They thought that learning tennis was as easy as learning basketball, and they didn't even bother to find out.

They will only think that their son is an athletic genius.

It is obviously the best result if your parents don't interfere with you. Don't make too many demands on other things.

Forget it, I have been reborn and am already 16 years old, so I don’t need to bother my parents about making money.

Chen Ran thought that the money he had should be enough for him to spend for a while, but in order to facilitate his work in the future, he decisively went to the mall and bought a "Siemens" mobile phone.

In this era, mobile phones have become popular and have entered thousands of households, and the price is not expensive. It is basically two months’ salary of an ordinary working class.

However, mobile phones in this era can only make calls and send text messages, but they do not yet have the function of taking photos.

After Chen Ran bought the mobile phone, the first thing he did was to send a text message to Sun Jianye: Hello, Director Sun, I am Chen Ran.This is my mobile phone number. If you need anything in the future, you can send me a message or call me.

After all, in this period, I still have to deal with Director Sun.

The other party is indeed an old fox in the officialdom, but he is not an ignorant young man, as long as he has a good grasp of the scale.

……

A few days later, a very sensational event happened in the Chinese sports world. Yao Ming, a basketball player from Shanghai, was selected by the Houston Rockets in the NBA draft and became the first foreign No. [-] pick.Some basketball reporters asserted that Yao Ming will become the leader of Chinese sports in the next ten years, and the NBA will become the most popular league among Chinese teenagers. The golden age of basketball is coming.

When Chen Ran saw this news, he remembered many dusty past events in his previous life.

During those high school years, he and his classmates often skipped class and went to the cafeteria to watch Rockets games.

Such a bold behavior was simply unimaginable when he was in junior high school.

Looking back on it now, even though it was an experience from my youthful years, it is too embarrassing to think about it now.

The leader of Chinese sports?

Chen Ran recalled that period of time. Yao Ming was not necessarily a leader in terms of glory, but he was indeed a leader in terms of influence and income.

Not only in the sports world, but also in the cultural and sports circles including the entertainment industry, few people can compare with him, and he has led the Forbes celebrity list several times.

Then in this life, let's fight over who will be the leader?
The next second, Chen Ran appeared in the "simulation training ground" and shouted to Zhang Depei: "Coach, let's have another battle. This time I must play 12 rounds."

12 games, which is 7:5, also means that after the two sides tie at 5-5, there will be an extended game.

"Coach, this summer vacation, I want to fight you until the tiebreaker!"

……

Two months passed by in a blink of an eye, and it was the end of August.

During this period, in order to celebrate that Chen Ran was recommended to Donghai Middle School, a key high school in the city, his parents called all their relatives over for a banquet.

However, the money for the dinner was paid for by Chen Ran's grandparents, because his parents really didn't have the habit of saving money.

However, Chen Ran was also sensitive to the fact that his relatives were somewhat disapproving of the banquet.

Although it is a very honorable thing for a child to enter Dongzhou Middle School for high school, Chen Ran was selected as a student with special sports skills.

As for what "sports" it was, Chen Ran didn't clarify it with these relatives, but generally, sports students from key high schools could be recommended to either the basketball team or the track and field team, so these relatives would not ask carefully.

After all, in this era, although football has a huge influence, most schools usually do not set up football teams. After all, there are not even a few lawns where football can be played.

All in all, in the eyes of those relatives, Chen Ran's recommendation was not based on his academic performance, but on his sports skills. This is not something worth showing off.

As a physical education student, don’t you just become a physical education teacher in the future? Can you still participate in the Olympics?
The so-called all things are inferior, only reading is high.

This concept has penetrated into the bones of many Chinese people.

Chen Ran noticed the looks and expressions of his relatives, but he didn't take them seriously.

In Chen Ran's plan, when he can officially appear on the ATP Tour stage one day, he will choose to show off. For now, it is better to keep a low profile.

In the next three years of high school, other students will work tirelessly for the college entrance examination and immerse themselves in problem-solving tactics; and he himself will chase the dream that was buried deep in his heart in his previous life.

On August 8, Chen Ran got on the bus to Shanghai to prepare for the ITF23K Hope Competition.

Just yesterday, his technical attributes just exceeded 70 points, and he also unlocked the third special skills trainer.
