Volume 1 Chasing the Baseball Dream Chapter 016: Wealthy and Powerful (Part 1)
Ono Binzhi was calm at first, but after a day passed and he still didn't receive a call, he became unable to sit still.
There won’t be any unexpected events at the city’s third high school, right?
If Zhang Han's future was ruined because of his momentary impulse, Ono Binzhi felt that he might have to live in guilt for the rest of his life.
He wanted to pick up the phone on the desk several times, but finally put it down hesitantly.
By noon the next day, he could no longer bear it and went to Zhang Han to discuss it.
The future direction, this big decision, ultimately has to be decided by Zhang Han himself.
"Just wait for them to notify us! There's an old saying in my hometown: those who rush in are not good buyers. If the city's top three high school really likes me, they will definitely call me back. If they don't like me, even if we send ourselves to their door, there won't be any good results."
Ono Binzhi also understood this principle, and this was also the reason for his hesitation.
"But if, because of this, I miss the chance to enter the city's third-year high school, it would be a pity."
"It's nothing to be ashamed of! Going to a good school does increase your chances of success. But I think that's only one aspect of it."
Zhang Han said firmly: "Not all!"
His expression seemed to tell Ono Binzhi that even if he did not receive an invitation from the city's third high school, he would definitely become a successful person in the future.
Will!
Looking at Zhang Han's determined eyes, Ono Binzhi suddenly felt more confident.
The city’s senior high school is a good choice. If Zhang Han can learn baseball there, he will definitely get a better environment for growth.
But they're not the only options either.
After all, the Tokyo area, as the core of the country's capital, has more than just the city's top three high schools as wealthy families.
"Okay, I feel relieved when you say that. Go back and wait for news. I will definitely choose a good place for you."
After waiting for two days, just when Ono Binzhi couldn't stand it anymore and was ready to contact other teams.
The call from the city’s third high school came late.
"Mr. Ono, I'm really sorry. I was so busy with the team's promotion that I didn't pay attention to you. I'm Tian Yuan, the supervisor of the city's third high school. If you have time, I would like to talk to you about Zhang Jun's admission."
After hearing the reply on the phone, Ono Binzhi finally felt relieved.
Finally he replied. If he hadn't replied, he really didn't know what he would have done?
Ono Binzhi was both happy and annoyed.
The good news is that Zhang Han’s case has finally come to light.
What’s annoying is that these guys from the city’s senior high school didn’t think of contacting me until such a long time ago.
In this situation, he would be doing himself a disservice if he didn't extort money from the other party.
"It's Mr. Tian Yuan, hello. Zhang Han is not here. He went to Daocheng to take the test."
"Yes, Coach Kunitomo is very optimistic about his potential and said that he should be trained intensively."
"How could that be? Of course, our favorite school is still the city's third high school. But Zhang Han is a special kid. He has always received scholarships in school and on our team. Whether it's going to school or playing baseball, this kid has never spent a penny. And the people in your admissions office said..."
Ono Binzhi seems like a chatterbox.
He talked a lot of things, and in these words, he also revealed a lot of things.
For example, Zhang Han’s abilities and how popular he is.
Supervisor Tahara also listened selectively to these words.
Of course he knew that Ono Binzhi was talking nonsense. Although Ono Binzhi was very famous in middle school and had just led the team to win the national runner-up.
But Supervisor Tian Yuan was very suspicious. He thought that this guy might have only seen the abilities demonstrated by Zhang Han and did not see Zhang Han’s true potential at all.
Otherwise, he would never put Zhang Han in the position of substitute pitcher.
Even if Zhang Han's pitching is weak and he can't become a trump card, considering Zhang Han's potential, he should get a main number in other positions.
Dynamic prediction!
This is a very simple ability that basically every athlete can do to a certain extent.
But even such an ability that cannot be more ordinary, once achieved to the highest level by someone, can definitely produce astonishing results.
That's Zhang Han.
Although he didn't know why, he had already honed his dynamic prediction skills to perfection.
He can easily predict his opponent's next move by predicting it.
In this way, whether it is when attacking or when defending.
Zhang Han always takes advantage of others.
A player with such potential must be on the court all the time as long as he is not injured.
Ono Binzhi's use of Zhang Han was not thorough enough.
No matter how wonderful his words were, it was hard for Supervisor Tian Yuan to trust him.
Despite this, Tahara never refuted what Director Ono said from beginning to end.
He could basically guess the other party's intentions.
It’s just to help Zhang Han.
Perhaps Ono Binzhi, because he was with Zhang Han day and night, was too confused by the situation and failed to bring out Zhang Han's true potential.
But his heart towards the players is excellent.
Although Director Tahara cannot do this, it does not mean that he does not appreciate this approach.
Wait until Ono Binzhi finishes his movie-level performance.
Director Tahara then expressed his thoughts.
"Boy Zhang Han, what kind of difficulties does he have now? What kind of help does he want? Just tell me directly and I will apply to the school."
After hearing this reply, Ono Binzhi was speechless for a moment.
He had imagined countless situations before, but he never expected that the city's third high school would be willing to pay such a huge price to recruit Zhang Han.
At this time, Ono couldn't help but doubt.
Is there something I didn't see clearly before?
If Zhang Han didn't have some potential that he didn't know about, he really couldn't understand why a high school student from a wealthy city would be so humble.
"Tell me what kind of convenience you can provide first, so that I can persuade you."
Ono Binzhi didn't dare to speak, and was ready let Director Tahara speak first.
In this way, he could more or less see the other party's bottom line.
"All school selection fees can be waived. Zhang Han will be admitted to the city's senior high school as a student with special talents. In addition to the state-mandated accommodation fee, other fees will only be charged a symbolic amount. This is the condition we offer Zhang Han."
With such conditions put forward, Ono Binzhi didn't know how to respond.
Originally, he and Zhang Han were thinking that as long as the other party could bear 50% of the expenses.
They were satisfied.
I never expected that a senior high school student in a wealthy city would offer such generous conditions.
