Chapter 456: The Asian Quest Begins

“KBL? What is this? ”

Qin Yan pointed to the word on the itinerary and asked Duffy with a confused expression.

But somewhat unexpectedly, Duffy also looked at him with a strange expression, "What the hell?" You kid doesn't know? ”

Qin Yan spread his hands: "Should I know?" ”

Duffy had a look of hatred on his face: "You are a basketball player, don't you know that it is suitable?" ”

Qin Yan was very innocent, "I'll go, I'll be a basketball player, do I have to know everything?" ”

And, as far as those Korean abbreviations are concerned, who knows what they are, such as SM...... Who would have thought it would be a company! And SBS, SB forget it, still S......

Duffy had a "defeat for you" expression on his face, no way, this nervous employer will always selectively forget some things.

"This is the Korean basketball league! Basketball League! ”

Qin Yan covered his ears with his hands to avoid Duffy's roar, oh, it turned out to be the basketball league, but so what, I only know the NBA and related leagues, the CBA and related leagues, the European Basketball League and the South American Basketball League, as for this KBL in South Korea, sorry, I really haven't heard of it.

There is no way, Duffy can only make up for Qin Yan's knowledge of KBL.

Founded in 1997, this Korean professional basketball league now has a total of ten professional teams, each with its own arena, and the largest arena can accommodate 13,000 people! This number can be compared to many NBA arenas.

Located in the center of Seoul, the KBL Building is a huge building with 9 floors above ground and 5 floors underground, and the headquarters of the Korean Professional League is located on the 5th and 6th floors of this building. At the door, you can see the huge logo of the KBL league, behind this sign, is the heart of the KBL, the operation of the entire Korean professional league, depends on the instructions issued here, and China's CBA, KBL is also a very young league in South Korea.

According to Duffy, although the KBL league has declined in popularity since its inception, it is still the third largest league in South Korea after baseball and football, and has a large number of fans. Like many leagues around the world, BL's season is divided into regular season and playoffs, but unlike the NBA, they have a very dense schedule, about 3-4 games a week, and maybe 270 games in a full season! That's a lot more than the NBA.

Moreover, the KBL league already has its own draft system. They don't have a subordinate youth team, but like the NBA, they can be drafted directly from the university to ensure the team's reserves, and the KBL has high requirements for the player's cultural level, requiring them to complete college or high school courses, and those who fail to pass the grades cannot be selected.

Of course, the strange thing is that their draft is held in the rest week before the start of the regular season and the playoffs every season, which means that the rookies come up and play directly in the playoffs.

Although it is a very young event, it is relatively okay after all, so when deciding on the itinerary in South Korea, Duffy specially planned this itinerary for Qin Yan, and Qin Yan's trip to South Korea was to compete with the basketball players in the KBL.

Moreover, the name of this rival is very good, Cavaliers! Obviously, Duffy has a bad taste, Cavaliers, isn't this James' parent team in the NBA, although he is in the Heat now, but Qin Yan knows that in another year, he will decide to let James go home again.

Hey, wait, originally in history, it was the Heat who had three consecutive championships destroyed by the Spurs to have the decision two, but now the Heat don't even defend the title, will the decision two be advanced?

Well, it's far away, Qin Yan retracted his thoughts flying all over the sky, what did Duffy say just now? Compete with the people in KBL.

Compare notes?

Qin Yan looked incredulous, are you sure it's a fight and not a bloody abuse?

South Korea's most famous basketball player should be Ha Seung-jin, this big center who was once the Korean people still had high hopes for, was once thought by the Korean people to be able to beat Yao Ming, of course, it turned out later, it was a joke......

Therefore, Qin Yan felt that the word "competition" did not exist at all.

Duffy is also helpless, okay, you kid, if the boat capsizes in the gutter at that time, see what you do!

"Duffy, what about China's itinerary?"

"This is the easiest, it's your hometown, and besides, you need to meet Yao once."

"Brother Yao?" Qin Yan was a little surprised, Yao Ming basically contributed to the Chinese Basketball Association after retiring, and later bought the Shanghai team, and Yao Ming also became the chairman of the Chinese Basketball Association in the more distant future!

Therefore, Duffy, as Yao Ming's partner and friend back then, now it is necessary for his former partner to pave the way for his current partner.

Qin Yan said that there was no problem, and if he went to China, he would like to stay for a few more days.

As for Yao Ming to meet, that's no problem, but for the national team, then I can only hope that the leaders don't get too bad now, Qin Yan is enthusiastic and willing to contribute to the country, but if some officials do anything wrong for their own private interests, then Qin Yan will definitely not be polite.

I love this lovely country, not you officials.

It's this lovely country that I'm working for, not you officials.

"For the national team, Qin, my personal advice is that it's best not to be so fast, you also know Yao's situation back then, he is sometimes not spared, let alone you, who is not from a professional class."

For the national team, Duffy is not very cold, although he can understand his partner's patriotic feelings, but Yao Ming was tired because he participated in too many meaningless national team competitions!

Now Qin Yan will not be managed by the Chinese Basketball Association, and Duffy can still arrange his offseason schedule reasonably, once he is caught in that big whirlpool, he is afraid that Yao Ming's tragedy will happen again.

"What about Japan?" Qin Yan continued to ask, do you want to come to Japan to look like basketball, their basketball masters only exist in comics and animation.

Of course, it can't be denied that these Japanese sports, especially basketball, are really burning and enthusiastic.

Especially "Slam Dunk", that is where the dreams of many Asian basketball teenagers begin!

"There's a cartoonist, and he says he wants to create new cartoon characters based on you." Duffy shrugged his shoulders, this idea is very good, and it is very helpful for Qin Yan's popularity to increase, so when the Japanese side contacted him, Duffy decisively agreed.

Comic book characters? Could it be "Kuroko's Basketball"? No.,That's the 08 year comic that's coming out.,Hey,That's not right.,According to the time,,This comic shouldn't have been finished yet.,Especially the Last Game shouldn't have started yet.。

I'll go, I'm not going to be the villain, right? (Kuroko's basketball last game tells the story of the Miracle Six against American basketball masters.) )

Qin Yan suddenly felt that his trip to Asia would be very interesting......
