By then, it's entirely possible that we can definitely achieve a good ranking for our country in the Basketball World Cup, or even win the trophy.
"Coach Chen, thank you for your kindness, but I still want to focus on my studies. Please understand."
Xia Ze smiled and politely declined Chen Peng's offer.
He never intended to pursue a career in sports.
Therefore, no matter how good the offer was from Chen Peng and Li Ran, his answer was still to refuse.
"Xia Ze!"
Chen Peng was frustrated by the repeated rejections.
He didn't understand why Xia Ze had refused his invitation.
You have to understand how many basketball players in China would kill to join the national team.
“Old Chen! If Xia Ze doesn’t agree, then forget it. 々〃 。
Compared to Chen Peng, who has a rather impatient personality, Li Ran's way of speaking is more comfortable.
He quickly patted Chen Peng on the shoulder, telling his old friend not to get so excited.
Then he walked up to Xia Ze.
"Xia Ze, do you know how great the benefits are of joining the national team? Not only can you win glory for the country, but you can also earn at least tens of thousands of yuan every month."
“You’re still in high school and you can send your family over 100,000 yuan a month. Just imagine how happy your parents must be.”
Li Ran employed a seduction tactic.
But he didn't know that Xia Ze was not short of money at all.
Even Pan Yuansheng, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. They thought they could poach Xia Ze with a salary of over 100,000 yuan.
This is a big joke.
It's worth noting that the school probably paid tens of millions of yuan to recruit him.
"I'm sorry, Coach Li, but I still refuse. Besides, I'm not short of money," Xia Ze said with a smile.
For an average working-class family, a monthly salary of over 100,000 yuan is an extremely tempting job.
But you should know that this is Kyoto.
You'd have to work your ass off for ten years to save up a salary of over 100,000 yuan to buy a house here outright.
Xia Ze felt sorry for himself when he thought about it.
These athletes who win glory for the country only earn so little in a year, and that's only for the main athletes.
Those substitute players probably earn less than ten thousand a month.
But those people in the entertainment industry earn more than that for acting in a movie, singing a song, or shooting an advertisement.
It's no wonder Xia Ze thought of the entertainment industry.
It's true that in Kyoto, you might run into someone from the entertainment industry at any time.
"this…"
Li Ran didn't expect Xia Ze to refuse.
This is a salary that only top athletes in the country can get, but Xia Ze didn't seem to care at all.
Is he really not short of money?
Pan Yuansheng looked at Chen Peng and Li Ran, whose faces were pale and embarrassed.
At this moment, he stepped forward to defuse the situation: "Coaches, you don't know this, but our Xia Ze is the number one student in the whole school."
"With grades like that, even if he himself is willing to go with you, his parents definitely wouldn't agree."
Hear this.
Chen Peng and Li Ran were instantly startled.
They never expected that Xia Ze was not only talented in basketball, but also a top student.
This is something they truly dare not even imagine.
Because in their view, those with high basketball skills must have practiced since childhood or played frequently since childhood.
Students who play basketball all the time don't have time to study.
So his grades were definitely average or even below average, but I never expected that Xia Ze would not only be good at basketball but also so good at studying.
The two looked at each other.
If they still harbored a sliver of hope just now, they have completely lost any intention of trying to win them over.
He's the top student in his entire prestigious high school in Kyoto.
With these results, why bother playing basketball?
"Sigh, if we had known Xia Ze was such a good student, we wouldn't have tried to persuade him for so long. We're just ruining his future."
Although Chen Peng has a rather impatient personality.
But he is a really good person, and he felt a little guilty after learning about Xia Ze's grades.
With achievements like that, why would someone need to make a name for themselves through basketball?
After graduating from university, there's no job you can't do.
"Thank you for your understanding, both coaches." Xia Ze smiled, finally relieved that he didn't have to waste any more words.
"In that case, let's go back."
"Okay, Xia Ze, you can go back to class. I'll see the two coaches off." Pan Yuansheng got up and saw the two coaches off.
Xia Ze also returned to class.
As soon as he got back to the classroom, he saw his classmates looking at him like he was a monster.
Jiang Tianhao then called out, his face filled with admiration.
"Old Xia, no, Brother Xia! You're really awesome, even the national team's head coach came to you."
"How do you know it?"
"I must have heard it from someone else. Anyway, the whole school (Li Lezhao) is talking about it now."
Xia Ze was stunned when he heard this.
There were only two coaches in the entire office besides him and Pan Yuansheng, yet this news still managed to get out.
Is someone eavesdropping?
That's impossible. That's the director's office, after all. Would someone really be so bold as to eavesdrop at the door?
"Forget it, who cares if anyone's eavesdropping?"
Xia Ze shook his head and stopped thinking about it. After all, what could he do even if someone was eavesdropping?
We can't just ask Director Pan to investigate the whole school because of this.
"Old Xia, you're famous now!"
"Someone uploaded a video of you playing basketball to Douyin, and it has now received over a million likes."
Just then, Fang Yifan ran over excitedly with his phone in hand.
Xia Ze took the phone and started scanning.
Wow, over 300 million likes and over 20 comments.
These people must have a lot of free time; a basketball video can get so many likes.

Xia Ze was also quite interested.
I have no idea what these people are saying in the comments.
He opened the comments.
Who says domestic basketball is declining?
"A strong youth makes a strong nation. I see the hope for Chinese basketball in this guy."
"That last shot was so cool, it even shattered the glass."
"This guy wearing a Kobe-signed jersey is kind of handsome, I mean his face is kind of handsome."
“We have never lacked exceptionally talented and highly skilled individuals, but they all fail to overcome the hurdle of the ‘system’!”
Most of the comments were positive.
However, every now and then a few negative comments will be interspersed among these comments.
"It's all show and no substance. Only a bunch of kids could pull that off. If he could pull it off on our court, I'd bet he'd win."
"I can't understand why the other team is so bad? They couldn't even defend against a shot like that."
“Any foreign university could easily beat him.”
