Chapter 9 University of Southern California



After returning home, Shi Xianghua began to arrange for Stephen to go to school. First, he asked Stephen's father to fax Stephen's school status information. If not, I'm afraid it will set a record for the lowest entrance score.

This is not possible, Shi Xianghua hurriedly asked Stephen's father to go to the school to change a few courses again, so that the calculated average score was barely acceptable, and then Shi Xianghua found a training class for Stephen, and asked Stephen to make up for it.

What Shi Xianghua meant was that it would be better for Stephen to take the entrance exam. Ordinary alumni's children can reduce the grade requirements by [-] to [-]%. As one of the directors, he should be able to pass even if his grades are even worse.

However, because she is not very confident about Stephen's grades, she also made another preparation, that is, to take the road of special sports enrollment, but she still hopes that Stephen can take the normal entrance path, take more formal courses, and learn more Knowledge……

After Stephen attended the class for a few days, according to the teacher’s reflection, his grades were not bad. Stephen’s foundation was very good, but his homework in middle school was a bit weak, so he just needed to make up for it. Ordinary universities should have no problems, but If you want to go to the University of Southern California, Shi Xianghua's alma mater, it's a little bit worse.

Under Shi Xianghua's arrangement, Stephen took the unified entrance examination. When the results came out, Shi Xianghua frowned after reading it. It was a bit far from the requirements of USC, which was 370 and 940. Five points, Stephen only scored [-] points in [-]. Such a score would be okay if he took the special sports move, but Shi Xianghua didn't want Stephen to take this path.

But this can be used as a reason. Shi Xianghua knows that each school team in the school is composed of two groups of people, one is the real sports special recruits, and those with specialties in sports are recruited by the coaches of each school team. The other is poor grades but good family background. Through this channel to enter USC, they usually only have a little understanding of this sport, and they play the role of guardians of drinking fountains in the school team.

What Shi Xianghua wanted was to let Stephen join the latter one. In this way, there were some requirements for grades, and Stephen’s grades just met this requirement, and the requirements for the sport itself were not high, as long as he knew a little bit, so she didn’t After personally assessing Stephen's basketball skills and directly contacting good people, he took Stephen to the University of Southern California in downtown Los Angeles.

The No. [-] person in USC, supervisory director Cage Nicholas received Shi Xianghua and his party. After checking all kinds of materials about Stephen, he nodded and said that there is no problem, as long as Carl Benjamin, the director of the school's basketball department, has seen Stephen's basketball talent Finally, sign a name on the report, and Stephen's enrollment is complete.

"I'll accompany you personally, don't worry, it's very simple, just need to be able to score a few goals, young man, don't be nervous." Seeing Stephen standing behind Shi Xianghua without saying a word, it was not normal at all He thought it was because Stephen was nervous that the young man was jumping like that, so he comforted him.

But he didn't know that Stephen was extremely excited. Southern California is a well-known university in the United States. If he goes back and tells his parents about it, they will go crazy with joy, and they can also participate in the ncaa level basketball team. Although USC's basketball team is not very famous, nor is it his favorite team, his favorite must be the University of North Carolina, which has produced Jordan and Carter, but he can enter the NCAA team, so it doesn't matter which team it is .

From that day on, Stephen never had the chance to touch basketball. Thinking of this, his hands began to tremble and itchy, and his heart began to burn like fire.

A group of people soon came to the basketball hall located in the southeast of the campus. This is the sports area of ​​USC. Over the floor and the sound of the basket hitting the frame.This is because only a few people are still in school since it is still summer vacation.

When passing by someone's training ground, he saw someone passionately showing off his vigorous and heroic posture. Stephen envied him but also looked forward to it. In the near future, he will also have the opportunity to compete in such an advanced training ground. The floor is radiant, the basketball is made of leather, and the cheers are like mountains. Even if the coach sternly reprimands, it is the sound of dreams.

Soon he came to an office door. A tall middle-aged man was about to go out with a stack of materials in his hand. He was very surprised when he saw Lancelow coming. Lancelow is the number two in the school after the principal. Moreover, since the principal focuses on academic research, the supervisor is more responsible for other affairs, so why did he come to the basketball court.

"Director Benjamin, let me introduce you. This is Ms. Shi Xianghua. She is a graduate of our school's law school and one of the most famous lawyers in California. She is one of the directors of our school and has invested in the development of USC A lot of energy."

Speaking of this, let me talk about the history of the University of Southern California. The University of Southern California is a private research school. The school was originally donated by three wealthy Los Angeles residents. It is a Methodist (a sect of Christianity) university , and later gradually faded its religious color, no longer under the jurisdiction of the church, and became managed by the Supervisory Council, which is composed of about 50 voting directors and several executive directors, honorary directors and non-voting retirees Directors are composed of directors, and directors are executives of some large organizations or companies, outstanding alumni and senior management of universities. Usually these three identities are inseparable.

The vast majority of USC graduates stay in California, so the Troyen family, the USC alumni organization, is a very influential organization in California.

"Hi, nice to meet you." Benjamin didn't react at first, but when he heard that Shi Xianghua was a lawyer, Benjamin was immediately moved, and when he heard that Shi Xianghua was a director of the school, his face became more enthusiastic A few points, he belongs to the school's recruiters, and in recent years, the performance of the basketball team is not very good, so the position is very unstable.

Originally, he was still wondering why the other party and his group came, but when he saw Stephen standing behind, he immediately understood that it must be a private matter for the supervisor and director who hadn't seen each other for many years to appear in the basketball hall. It is estimated that the children of alumni want to enter the school through this channel.

It is because there are too many people like this that the performance of the school basketball team has not improved. However, it is a traditional habit of USC to take care of the children of alumni. He, the director of the basketball department, dared to raise objections.

"This is Ms. Smith's nephew Stephen. He has basically passed the entrance examination. He has a certain basketball talent, so he wants to join our school's basketball team. I'll bring him over to have a look. If possible, please stay here The report is endorsed."

It is probably normal for such a thing to happen at USC, so Nicholas handed over the report without any embarrassment. Although he has never stuffed people into the basketball team, other teams often do this. Be it baseball or football.

"Okay." Benjamin took the report, quickly glanced at the grades on the report, and smiled bitterly in his heart. It really is like this. Such grades are not bad for ordinary third-rate universities. He wants to enter this national ranking. The colleges in the past few years were a little bit worse, and if they could pass such a test, they would not have any talent in sports. I took a look at Stephen, and his height was okay, right?Only at this time did he notice Stephen's complexion, yellow?The athletic ability advantage of the yellow race is not in basketball, why did they run into the basketball hall.

"Okay, let's try it here." But since the supervisors have come forward in person, there is nothing wrong with it. If Benjamin is a person who sticks to principles, the USC basketball team will not be what it is now.

"Come on, let me see how many balls you throw." After leading the group to an empty basketball court, Benjamin picked up a ball and threw it to Stephen. Seeing that Stephen's way of catching the ball was pretty good, Benjamin nodded , OK, it’s not the kind that has never even played basketball.

But what happened next made him a little dumbfounded. Seeing Stephen raised the basketball high, the shape of his hands was correct, the position of his fingers was reasonable, and he knew how to lift his heels. Who knew that the thrown basketball flew far to the basket. big back.

Everyone else has a horrible expression. It is exaggerated enough to shoot like this. If it is considered excellent to shoot the basket and pass the basket, what should it be if it is not even a rebound?

Although Nicholas said he still had a smile on his face, he was complaining about Shi Xianghua in his heart. He also said that his nephew had a good basketball talent.

Although Shi Xianghua was very angry with Stephen in his heart, if you are at this level, don’t say you can play basketball, and if you lose such a big person outside, you can just change to other sports, but now you are too embarrassed to upset your nephew, so you have to Gave Stephen an encouraging look, beckoning him to do it again.

Stephen smiled awkwardly and rubbed his hands nervously. He was so excited that he couldn't control his body when he got excited. He took a ball again, felt the weight in his hand, and threw it again.

It's a pity that the basketball flew behind the backboard again, but it was much better than the ball just now. You don't need to look back at Stephen to know what they will look at you, and how your aunt will blame yourself in your heart, but this body is really good. I can't control it, forget it, I won't shoot, I will do a three-step layup.

At this time, hearty laughter suddenly came from one side. A few young people who were about the same age as Stephen stood beside the training ground at some point. Seeing that Stephen was able to throw the ball behind the basket twice in a row, they couldn't help laughing. Voice.

"Student with yellow skin, you should practice track and field, otherwise it would be a waste of your strength, or American football is more suitable for you." A guy with a brush hair and a kb8 jersey pointed at Stephen Gao shouted loudly, with a teasing tone, and the people next to him laughed loudly.
