In 2002, Yao Ming, the "Little Giant" from China, entered the NBA and became the first Asian player to be drafted number one in the NBA draft.
Meanwhile, an 18-year-old high school student, also from the East, was selected fifth overall.
This is the best of times: with stars like Duncan, O'Neal, and Kobe preceding them, and James, Durant, and Curry following them—a truly star-studded era…
This is also the worst of times: facing the Lakers' OK duo, the Spurs' GDP trio, the Celtics' Big Three, and the Cavaliers and Warriors' two powerhouse teams, a single star player has almost no hope of winning a championship...
But I am a high mountain, not a long river.
When encountering mountains, climb them; when encountering seas, cross them. I'd rather be a towering mountain than a river that winds its way into the sea!
You must climb that mountain like a warrior and prove to the world that you are the best point guard and the best player of this era!

In the saints' most bewildered moment, their "God" descended from heaven. Years later, "Kiyashi, Kiyashi, why are you always able to create records that have never been set before?" "Because my pursuit is endless!" Kiyashi replied. In reality, "These achievements are merely extra honors for you, but for me, they are real benefits!" Kiyashi laughed wildly.
"Elegance" was once the most fashionable compliment in the football world, like blue and white porcelain after a clear rain... exuding an air of "classical" and "artistic" beauty. It was Zidane's composure during the Marseille turn, Riquelme's elegant "Cruyff turn," Berbatov's seemingly lazy shot... those moments that made fans willingly hold their breath... the ball at their feet seemed to come alive, each touch like a brushstroke on a canvas, carrying a graceful, unhurried beauty. Until Makelele's meteoric rise, elegance gradually became synonymous with "sluggishness," silently swept into the corners of history. James Rodriguez's meteoric rise followed by a decline in his career in 2014 further proved that elegance was dead! From then on, elegance became a cursed possession for coaches. In 2015... a Chinese teenager, deemed "unworthy" by experts, walked into Fiorentina with unwavering determination...

[Pre-order "Mistakenly Raising the Eldest Princess as a Concubine" - please add to your collection] [A sweet, lazy, and incredibly powerful dog-like gong (top) x a proud, cat-like older sister shou (bottom), a transmigrated gong VS a reborn shou (bottom), ancient ABO, younger gong, mpreg] Gu Qingci, after an accidental death in the apocalypse, wakes up to find himself transmigrated into the body of the female lead's scumbag wife in an ancient ABO novel. The fallen aristocrat married a merchant's daughter, living off her while utterly despising his new wife. He not only mistreated her but also took several concubines. After draining his wife of her money, he divorced her and remarried. Ultimately, he was framed by his ex-wife, who had become the richest imperial merchant, and her current eldest princess, and exiled to the army, where he died of hunger and cold. When Gu Qingci transmigrated, a rattan cane was stuffed into his hand, meant to beat the kneeling wife, forcing her to give him money to take concubines. With his survival instincts honed in the apocalypse, Gu Qingci plopped down before his wife. Wife: ? ? ? !!! ! Gu Qingci, her eyes brimming with tears, looked pitiful: "Sister, what is taking a concubine? Can you eat her? I only need you, sister!" (Subtle hints: rich woman, hungry, food, waaaah, cute, pitiful, helpless, can be eaten) *** Ruan Zhi noticed that her wife, who was good for nothing but beauty, had been acting strangely lately, as if she had become foolish but not completely so. She no longer disliked her for her money-grubbing ways, protecting her in every way, and voluntarily handed over the management of the household affairs to her. She also put her in charge of the family's estates and shops, and even passed the martial arts exam to avoid taxes! Just when Ruan Zhi thought she was planning something big, she introduced her to the eldest daughter of the emperor and smiled mysteriously: "Sister, want a wife? I'll help you! After the divorce, you can still manage all the properties; I only want a share of the profits." Ruan Zhi: ... After understanding her wife's thoughts, Ruan Zhi looked at her beautiful face and leaned closer to whisper in her ear: "If you want a share of the profits, you'd better please your sister. If you don't do it right, she won't give it to you!" Later, to protect this sweet and soft rice bowl (not really), Gu Qingci became the Great General Protector of the Nation, a super-ranked non-royal prince. During a court assembly, the emperor wanted to bestow upon her a noblewoman as a secondary wife and several beautiful concubines. Everyone thought Gu Qingci would be happy and grateful, but unexpectedly, she trembled and said: "Your Majesty, please don't! I don't want to go home and kneel on an abacus! Please have pity on me!" Before: Rich woman, hungry, rice. After: Wife, hungry, wife.

Zhao Nuan died unexpectedly while fighting floods and disaster relief. When she opened her eyes again, her soul had transmigrated into the fictional ancient Zhao Nuan.
In ancient times, Zhao Nuan also encountered a flood, leaving only her and her daughter as the last members of her family.
Having escaped death, Zhao Nuan, along with the original owner's infant daughter, followed the refugees to the capital. After witnessing countless corpses and refugees disappearing without a trace along the way, she decided to sell herself into servitude as a wet nurse in the Wu'an Marquis's mansion.
Just when she thought life was going well, the Marquis's mansion was suddenly struck by a major change, and the entire household was exiled.
Lady Hou entrusted her youngest son to her care and recognized her as her biological mother.
To evade capture, Zhao Nuan, with her cautious and resourceful nature, took her daughter and young master and headed north.
After many hardships, she arrived at the harsh exile site earlier than the rest of the people exiled from the Marquis's mansion.
To repay the kindness of being taken in, Zhao Nuan cleared land, planted crops, and raised chickens and sheep before the arrival of the Marquis's family.
Despite the hardships of exile, Zhao Nuan managed to get everyone in the Marquis's household involved in playing a sandbox farming game.
Selling mountain products, opening restaurants, building workshops—it was all incredibly bustling with activity.
People of insight from all directions came to seek refuge, and advisors from all sides invited him to join their grand plan.
The people of the Marquis's residence politely declined.
Suddenly one day, an urgent imperial edict arrived, summoning the wet nurse Zhao Nuan to the palace for an audience with the emperor.
Zhao Nuan: ...politely declined.
The people of the Marquis's mansion: We can be exiled, but we cannot take away the wet nurse.
Aren't you people of high moral character? Aren't you a staff member?
Come, come, let's discuss how to rebel.
Fighting against heaven and earth is not enough; they must fight against man! Immortal sects, humans, demons, gods, immortals, and monsters—the love, hate, grudges, and entanglements of the Xuanhuang Nine Provinces Great World, the battles of magical powers in the immortal realm, the evil techniques in the eyes of the world, the vengeful nature of humanity, the promises between men, the flames between swords and blades—only the Burning Heaven Soul Master remains.
