With super physical fitness and sports ability, he made his debut in the basketball industry. He not only participated in the stars' gathered basketball variety shows, signed a well -known sports brand at home and abroad, but also entered the Southeast Asian professional basketball league (hereinafter referred to as "ABL League"). International stage ... The grass -roots boy who came out of Foshan stepped forward step by step, climbing to the top of his dream.

Young

Street players bravely break through the professional arena

Before going to high school, Zhong Xianchao was not interested in basketball. He played football and hip -hop in his eyes, much more interesting than basketball. "My brother especially likes to play basketball. Elementary school often pulls me to the court together." Zhong Xianchao said that his brother was his own basketball enlightenment teacher. Although he was often forced to play basketball when he was a child, he was still unmoved.

After entering the Gaoming Vocational and Technical School, Zhong Xianchao joined the school football team, but at the time, there were many people playing football at the time, and the venue was often not enough. In the days when he couldn't play, Zhong Xianchao played basketball with his classmates, and since then he fell in love with the sport. It was that time, he discovered his talent in bouncing ability.

Success has never been achieved by talent overnight.

Although he often claims to be "talented players", Zhong Xian knows that he has never been able to get in the field, only unknown efforts. Regardless of school or vacation, as long as he is free, Zhong Xianchao will run into the court to study the ball. From sweeping the school court to participating in the Foshan Youth Basketball Championships, to the basketball competitions across the country, Zhong Xianchao continued to transform and grow in a game event, and also gained many honors: the Guizhou Red Bull Doton Contest Championship, the 2017 World Street Ball Contest Chinese team members, 2018 China -Japan confrontation Shenzhen team members ...

Zhong Xianchao played with the NBA star McGrady.

With countless accumulation, the moment the opportunity comes, it is capable of grasping.

In 2018, the invitation of a basketball variety show made Zhong Xian super completely hot. Recording programs with a group of stars and competing with the NBA stars on the same stage. He did not have the frura on the stage.

On the variety show, Zhong Xianchao was on the same stage as Jay Chou.

The "star -studded" on the stage did not shake Zhong Xianchao's original intention to basketball. He wanted to prove himself in another way -he became a professional player.

At the beginning of 2019, Zhong Xianchao participated in the Zhuhai trial training of the ABL League Macau Wolves and scored 30 points in the team's confrontation, which also gave him the opportunity to join the Wolves. The life of professional athletes did not imagine beautifully, high -intensity training, and the compact schedule was often overwhelmed by Zhong Xian. At that time, he almost ran all over the entire Southeast Asia, but he was still happy. Recalling the time when I played my career, Zhong Xianchao said: "I chose to chase my dreams at my peak moment, but I don't regret it. After all, this is something I dream of from high school. The cow becomes a reality, I think it is cool! "

From the street grass roots to the international stage, Zhong Xianchao has never forgotten to promote for his hometown. "Many friends from other places ask me if I will have no shadows as soon as they meet. I will tell them that Foshan is not only known for its kung fu. Our food, dragon and lion culture, ceramics, and paper cutting are as good as!" Will invite friends from other places to visit Foshan, taste special food, and experience the charm of Lingnan culture. Zhong Xianchao appeared with Foshan's wake -up lion.

In the future, Zhong Xianchao hopes that through the brand resources that he has accumulated, it will launch some co -branded products with Foshan's cultural characteristics, so that more young people will understand Foshan and understand Lingnan culture.

Return to life

Basketball Boy's "Slip Life"

Nian Shao's hometown worked hard for his dreams and watched the prosperity of the outside world. Zhong Xianchao felt that his hometown was the most comfortable place.

In Gaoming, Zhongxian opened a coffee shop and a hundred square meters of space, gathered various objects he loved: movie posters everywhere, Jay Chou's lyrics and stickers; The basketball court was hung on the wall as a decorative element. Playing skiing, designing clothing sneakers, playing e -sports ... I used to think of basketball as the whole bell, and now I learned to slow down and appreciate other scenery on the journey of life.

Zhong Xianchao's shop is placed in various things he likes.

"This year is the Year of the Olympic Olympics, and I am soaked in the snow field almost all winter to play skiing, as if 'poisoning'." When asked what exercises do you like except basketball, Zhong Xianxing introduced us to skiing, "The feeling of free to slipy on the snow surface is too cured. The stacked mountain forests and the vast snow scenes in front of the eyes can sweep the pressure and troubles in life."

Zhong Xianchao ski at the snow field in Xinjiang.

Zhong Xian was 27 years old, born in 1995. This age is not young among basketball players. When he talks about his plan to exit the field in the future, he seems very calm. "Actually, I have gradually withdrawn from some events. Now I am looking for the direction of transformation and doing what I like. Coffee shop is an attempt. In recent years, I walked south to the north. The things they arrived brought back Gaoming and learned with the local young people. "

In addition to returning to life, in recent years, Zhong Xianchao has also devoted a lot of energy to public welfare charity.

Sports equipment.

"Many of the achievements I have now have been given to me by the society, so I have to give back, just like the old saying: if you come, you have to return." Every year, I will help in the poor mountainous areas. Promise. In addition to raising sports supplies for children in the mountains, Zhong Xianchao will also carry out basketball training classrooms for the children, take basketball as the starting point, promote the development of rural sports education, allow more rural children to experience the spirit of sports and promote the comprehensive physical and mental development.

In the first half of the youth, Zhong Xianchao chose to sweat and glow and heat on the court. Basketball taught him to never lose and laughed. In the second half of youth, it is still full of infinite possibilities. Dare to think, dare to do, and dare to fight as a label of young people.
