Live Bar June 5th news before, Yi Jianlian attended the opening ceremony of Yi Jianlian building in Nike Group’s Greater China headquarters Park. Later, Yi Jianlian accepted Yang Yi’s interview.
Yang Yi: how does it feel to have a building named after yourself?
Yi Jianlian: I have joined hands with Nike for my entire basketball career. I have never entered the league and started to take photos with Nike until now. For me, this is a high honor for athletes, because there are very few athletes who can name the building after themselves, whether in the US headquarters or China headquarters. This is a very, very big affirmation for me. When I went in to visit, I found some elements, moments and pictures of my whole career in every corner. This is a good review of my career. Go in and see the pictures of the games when you were young, the days of the talent show, the scenes of the Olympic Games, etc.
Yang Yi: When you walk into this building and go back to your great career, what comes to mind is more satisfaction or more regret?
Yi Jianlian: I can’t say that I am a great player, but I can meet many great players and see many great players when I first started playing, I can always learn a lot from them. In fact, before winning the competition, I lost a lot of competitions and also had many injuries, which were inseparable from the whole career, which constituted a complete career puzzle.
