Two days later, Ye Lingchen received a call from Zhang He. The contract procedures were almost done. Next, Ye Lingchen only needed to be present to take a photo to officially take effect and get his player ID.
Ye Lingchen agreed. After class, he took some time to catch a bus and headed to the stadium.
When he arrived at the stadium, Zhang He was already waiting at the door. He led Ye Lingchen directly to the second-floor office of the basketball association.
"Student Ye Lingchen, face the camera. All you need to do is enter your face into the computer and all the information will be recorded," Zhang He said with a smile. He was happy that he had managed to pull a basketball star.
It was foreseeable that China's basketball had a chance to rise.
Click!
With a flash of light, the photo was taken.
The staff sorted out the materials on the computer, entered Ye Lingchen's information bit by bit, and registered it.
After that, Zhang He took out the contract. All they needed to do was take a photo of the signed contract with Ye Lingchen and upload it. Then, it would automatically take effect, and the procedures would be officially completed!
However, at that moment, a series of hurried footsteps were heard, rushing toward them.
Everyone was slightly taken aback.
The next moment, the office door was pushed open. Pan Heng walked in with a flushed face, his eyes full of anger.
Behind him was a middle-aged man with glasses. He had a square face and an extremely serious expression, giving off a dignified vibe.
"Teacher, President Qin! Why are you here? "
A trace of surprise flashed in Zhang He's eyes as he asked in surprise.
Qin Yuan, the president of the National Basketball Association and the head of the Basketball Department of the General Administration of Sport, was definitely a leader in the basketball industry. The development of China's basketball could not be done without his support and supervision.
"If we didn't come, who knows what this association would have done to you!" Pan Heng was almost roaring as he glared at Zhang He. "President Qin was invited by me. I don't have a student like you. Today, I'm here to put justice before family!"
"Teacher, you must have misunderstood …"
"Misunderstood my ass!" Pan Heng's eyes widened. Without another word, he snatched the contract from Zhang He's hands. "What right do you have to sign such a contract with this person? What has the basketball association become?! Who would believe that there's nothing fishy going on between you two?! "
With that, he handed the contract to Qin Yuan.
President Qin pushed up his glasses. His eyes were shining as he flipped through the contract page by page. His originally serious face became a little gloomy, and he could not help but frown.
"President Zhang, please give me an explanation." Qin Yuan looked straight at Zhang He and said coldly, "What you've done is a serious violation of the rules. It's an abuse of personal power. If you can't give me a reasonable explanation, I'll report it to the relevant department."
"President Qin, Ye Lingchen is really a basketball genius. I've seen it with my own eyes. He's definitely the hope of China's basketball!" Zhang He's eyes were filled with sincerity. "Please believe me. Give Ye Lingchen time and he'll definitely prove it to you!"
"Stubborn! I can't believe you're still so stubborn! " Pan Heng was so angry that his hair stood on end. "I've dedicated more than 30 years to China's basketball. Don't tell me I can't tell who's suitable to play basketball and who's not? This brat only showed me his arrogance and conceit, and nothing else! "
"This kind of contract is a joke!"
After that, he angrily crumpled the contract into a ball and threw it into the trash can at the door.
"Teacher!"
Zhang He instantly panicked, and his voice was filled with panic.
"President Zhang, what you've done is too disappointing." Qin Yuan shook his head. "I'll apply to the higher-ups to temporarily strip you of your position as president."
"If that's the case, then forget it." Ye Lingchen, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke. His expression was indifferent as if the matter had nothing to do with him. "I'm not joining this basketball association!"
After saying that, he walked out of the door without any hesitation.
He was very fast. He walked down from the second floor and headed straight for the main entrance.
"Student Ye Lingchen, wait!" Zhang He was slightly stunned at first, then ran out frantically, shouting anxiously behind him.
"Student Ye Lingchen, wait!" He took a big stride forward and stood in front of Ye Lingchen, his voice a little hoarse. "Student Ye Lingchen, my teacher's temper is a little stubborn, but he's really dedicated his whole life to China's basketball cause. I apologize to you. Please forgive him."
Then, he looked at Pan Heng and Qin Yuan, his voice full of determination, and said, "It doesn't matter if I'm stripped of my position as president, but please let Ye Lingchen join the basketball association. I really didn't choose the wrong person. Teacher, please believe in your student!"
That, that …
Everyone revealed a look of shock.
Especially Pan Heng, whose expression kept changing.
What was the reason for Zhang He to be so crazy? What right did that kid have to earn President Zhang's recognition?
"Zhang He, you … you're crazy. Wake up!" Pan Heng sighed, feeling puzzled.
"President, what's wrong with you?"
"President, this guy really isn't worth it!"
"President, we have so many people, but we can't even compare to this kid?"
The players on the court were also dumbfounded, each of them showing grief and indignation.
Zhang He was their president and had always taken on the role of training them. He was strict and responsible, a teacher and a friend.
At that moment, he actually became like that because of an ordinary kid?
When they saw it, they naturally felt extremely uncomfortable. While they were unconvinced, there was also a hint of jealousy.
"President Zhang, thank you for your kindness. However, since my fate with the basketball association is shallow, I'll take my leave here," Ye Lingchen said calmly, then smiled. "You're a good basketball president."
After saying that, he prepared to walk away.
Whoosh —
Right then, accompanied by a sonic boom, a basketball hurtled toward Ye Lingchen, leaving a trail of afterimages in the air!
The speed of the basketball was extremely fast. It was obvious that someone had thrown it intentionally.
Ye Lingchen's brows twitched slightly, then he suddenly raised one hand.
Bang!
With just one hand, he caught the basketball and held it in the palm of his hand.
'He actually caught it?'
Everyone was stunned.
Pan Heng and Qin Yuan also looked at each other with shocked expressions. They began to size up Ye Lingchen again.
The basketball was thrown with great force. Most people would probably dodge and not dare to catch it. However, Ye Lingchen did not even move his feet. He easily caught the basketball with just one hand!
That technique and mentality were definitely not ordinary!
"Hey, didn't you say that I'm not worthy to be your opponent last time?" Captain Qian Sen walked over slowly, staring straight at Ye Lingchen. "I really want to see what kind of person the president thinks so highly of is like! If you have the guts, compete with me! "
