    McDonald's Pacific Region Los Angeles Headquarters, they are currently inviting top high school students to participate in the High School All-Star Game at the end of the month. In fact, there is only one event that is the most important, and that is the Dunk Contest. The other games do not attract much attention, and there is no Adidas training camp.  The game attracts a lot of attention. The selling point of the McDonald's High School All-Star Weekend is the slam dunk contest, which is the only game that is broadcast live across the United States.

    Some of the invited players responded, and some refused, but it didn¡¯t matter. The legendary ¡°high school student¡¯s strongest dunk king¡± Vince Carter, whom they valued most, agreed to participate in the dunk contest. That¡¯s enough!

    This slam dunk contest does not require any cost. In addition to food and accommodation, there are also some basic venue fees, staff fees, and bonuses for players who enter the finals. Compared with other commercial activities, the expenses are much smaller.

    It has been several months since the invitations were sent out. Anyone who wants to agree to participate should have responded via phone calls, emails, letters, etc. McDonald's feels that the work on player invitations is almost done, and preparations for the game can start next.  .

    There are still 10 days left. The McDonald's High School All-Star Weekend is about to begin. Today is the deadline for submission of entry materials. It has been two days since I received a new letter. The staff who are preparing to submit the list of participating players are here for the last time.  I went to the mailbox and saw that there were two emails today.

    ???????????????????????????????Zhang Hao and Paul Pierce from Inglewood High School in southwest Los Angeles, who have performed very well in California in the past two years, are the only Chinese high school students they invited. Pierce is the best high school player in California this season.

    The purpose of inviting Pierce is to sell tickets locally. Live TV broadcasts sell advertisements to make money. It is of course better to be able to sell tickets. Information and communication technology is still very backward these days. Outside of Florida, not many people know Carter, who is still a high school student.

    Zhang Hao can also play such a role, but McDonald's originally did not plan to invite a Chinese high school student to participate. This is related to business matters. Their Asia-Pacific Market Development Department learned that the Pacific headquarters will hold a high school dunk contest this year.  It is strongly recommended to invite Zhang Hao.

    Although the Pacific Region Headquarters agreed, the invitation was not as positive as the Asia-Pacific Market Development Department expected, and it was far worse than running to communicate with the Carter family.

    However, Zhang Hao responded, and the staff also added him to the list and submitted it to the person in charge of the preparations for this event.

    If Zhang Hao wants to participate in the slam dunk contest, McDonald's is naturally happy. Even if they are not so active, if Zhang Hao agrees to participate, then they can take advantage of Zhang Hao's Chinese identity.

    They don't need to sign Zhang Hao as a spokesperson, but using the gimmick that Zhang Hao is now among the top 30 high school students in the United States, McDonald's still wants to do it. It doesn't cost anything and provides a little bonus. If Zhang Hao can get it, take it.  Without being pulled down, Zhang Hao's identity as a Chinese can be used to spread propaganda in China.

    The competitive pressure with KFC is too great. China, a country with a population of more than 1 billion, has a huge catering market. McDonald's does not want to miss the opportunity to expand the market.

    ¡­¡­

    Time, April 16th, another five days have passed. Zhang Hao has only 374 days left to live. After tonight, there are only 373 days left.

    The pressure of seeing his lifespan shrinking day by day really made him a little crazy. Fortunately, the memory of the future was still there, and the feeling of "I'm so happy to be alive" allowed him to face it calmly.  All this, try hard to find a way to survive.

    What is the method of hard work?

    It¡¯s just training!

    If you can personally feel that your CIC is becoming more and more stable, and if you can clearly feel the progress of CIC, you will be able to better carry out your "survival plan."

    After sending the letter, Zhang Hao has been training for the past few days. Compared with before, it took a long time to feel the improvement. The progress in these days makes Zhang Hao excited every day.

    In just 5 days, the CIC ability value has increased from 75 to 79!  Zhang Hao regards 70 to 79 as good. If 90-94 is top, then 85-89 should be first-rate, and 80-84 is excellent!  An NBA-level mid-range shot is just around the corner!

    Not only is the evaluation improving, but he himself can also feel the improvement in his shooting accuracy. Compared with the previous rate of improvement, it can now be described as changing with each passing day.

    Zhang Hao got up and went to the small living room outside the bedroom. The apartment was a bit old, but the area was quite large, more than 40 square meters. There was a small living room and a bathroom. Zhang Hao, who had just woken up, saw a fat man playing on the computer in his living room.  .

    This broken computer, not to mention the big head computer, the Internet speed is shocking, and the configuration is also poor This is why Zhang Hao will notSi participated in it last year. This was a similar promotional event for Adidas to compete with Nike in the basketball shoe market, but the level of competition was the highest among training camps of major sports brands.

    Generally speaking, no senior players will participate in this game. Most of the talented senior players have been divided up by major colleges and universities at this time. Therefore, players who can be shortlisted for the top 100 high school students in the United States usually participate in the second and third years of high school. The final high school all-star lineup  Players will basically be able to join NCAA Division I teams in the future.

    Zhang Hao is obviously an exception. He received the invitation this year largely because there are so many Chinese in the venue.

    Zhang Hao felt that he had to work hard and try to see if he could be recognized by any college coach. Just like Coach Scott Collins of Inglewood High School, he took a fancy to his ability and talent and selected him.

    College coaches have very great power. In terms of scholarship arrangements and player selection, the head coach has a high say.

    But thinking about college Zhang Hao still has a headache. He sent his game videos and resume to 22 first-level universities, but so far only 9 universities have responded.

    Most of the universities that responded were interested in his SAT scores. Zhang Hao estimated that if he did not apply for a basketball scholarship, but purely based on his grades, those schools would be much more enthusiastic.

    Returning to the bedroom with the three letters, Zhang Hao gave Pierce's letter and opened his own reply letter from the McDonald's High School All-Star Slam Dunk Contest.

    The Adidas Training Camp was held in San Francisco this year, and the McDonald¡¯s High School All-Star Weekend was held in Los Angeles.

    As for McDonald's All-Star Weekend, we will report to the designated hotel on the 24th. The 25th and 26th will be the trial competitions, including the preliminaries of the slam dunk contest. The McDonald's High School All-Stars are held according to the rules of the NBA All-Star, but there are trials.  , the first two days of selection, the high school all-star game on the 27th, and the three-point contest and dunk contest on the 28th.

    The most important thing and the only one that is broadcast nationwide is the dunk contest. The previous three-point contest also had the opportunity to be broadcast nationwide because of the dunk contest, but I guess not many people paid attention to it.

    Regarding the All-Star Game, Zhang Hao did not receive an invitation, but in the past few days, Zhang Hao learned about this All-Star and found that this high school student All-Star selection was very strange. Among all the state league championship teams in the East and West, experts were divided  Select a player from each of the state championship high schools in the East or West. Sometimes the best players don't get the chance to participate.

    Pierce also received the invitation, but declined it because it was not necessary.

    The Adidas training camp is different. Zhang Hao is a special case. Most of the other participating players are high school sophomores and seniors. First, a one-week training camp begins. During this period, some competitions and selections are held in various ways, and finally the all-star lineup is determined.  At the node between the NBA regular season playoffs, seize the time and conduct a game that imitates the NBA All-Stars. The two teams are composed of high school students from the East and West.

    After Zhang Hao paid attention to this event, he saw a promotional poster for the Adidas high school basketball training camp. The cover player used to promote it was Kevin Garnett, the best high school student in the United States from Farragut High School Zhang Hao deliberately paid attention to the current situation.  After Garnett, I learned why this guy didn't go to college and went directly to the NBA. His grades were so bad. What kind of study enthusiasm can make a senior high school student only get more than 300 points in the SAT test?

    When there was an ACT exam at the end of April and an SAT exam at the beginning of May, Garnett, who had difficulty in taking the exams, didn't study hard to get into college, but came to participate in this competition. Maybe he never thought about going to college.  and no chance to enter.

    There is no live broadcast of the Adidas training camp, but it attracts more attention than McDonald¡¯s training camp and the All-Star Game!  Almost all the mvps of this event eventually entered the NBA. The 18-man roster for the final game of this event almost all entered the NCAA's first-level league teams in every session.

    The McDonald¡¯s High School All-Star Game is almost like a formality, the Dunk Contest only looks at physical fitness and dunk creativity, while the final game of the Adidas training camp really looks at skills and basketball talent.

    While Pierce was eating pizza, Zhang Hao used his computer to search for detailed information about this match at the Adidas training camp.

    ????????? Using computers these days requires a lot of patience

    "Yo ho!"

    Zhang Hao looked at the list of contestants and quickly found the names of some familiar people. It was not that they were familiar with each other, but he knew those people.

    Garnett, Kobe, Hamilton, Bibby, Jermaine O'Neal but most people still don't know them, there are more than 100 people.

    Zhang Hao thought about the speed at which his mid-range shot improved Originally he had no expectations for the Adidas training camp, but now he has. What he is good at is running, catching and shooting. If there is a teammate who is better at passing the ball, he can improve the relationship.  Point, maybe he can make the final 18-man roster?

    The probability of entering the NCAA Division I school team will be greatly increased!
