Qin Yue didn't reject James's repeated gestures of goodwill.

He grew up reading The Jordan Story.

Although basketball became the faith of his life as he grew older and he often enjoyed watching the NBA and various basketball games, as for the NBA stars after Jordan...

In fact, Qin Yue didn't have any special feelings.

And even as for Michael Jordan...

Qin Yue has criticized more than once that he's a complete scumbag.

Previously, the main reason Qin Yue did not want to get involved with James's deliberate attempts to befriend him was because he had more important things to do at the time.

He was busy clearing all opposition in the ACC league at the time, so where did he have the mind to make friends with the famous "The King"?

But now, even in the case of always giving more and receiving less, James actively expressed a desire to befriend him...

In Qin Yue's eyes, he couldn't refuse.

After all...

In the world, having more friends can never be a bad thing.

"Hahaha, Qin, I didn't realize you're such a humorous person."

On the banana boat, after Qin Yue told Anthony that James not leading the Cavaliers to the playoffs this year was proof he had great potential to tap into...

This cold joke Qin Yue stole from Duncan immediately amused Anthony.

Upon hearing this, James immediately put on a thoughtful look and said, "I see, I didn't make the playoffs to show people I have lots of potential waiting to be unlocked."

It must be said, the friendship among young people develops quickly.

That afternoon, when teaming up for two-on-two beach volleyball...

Qin Yue and James almost became good brothers who talked about everything.

Due to their absolute height advantage in the beach volleyball match, after winning three games against Paul and Anthony, James excitedly jumped onto Qin Yue's back.

Seeing this, Qin Yue imitated O'Neal from back in the day, carrying James and pointed at him saying to Paul and Anthony, "See? This is my all-powerful little brother."

Since Qin Yue was a year older than James, instead of being angry at being called 'little brother,' James actually said after getting off Qin Yue's back, "My King, you're truly amazing...

You know, Chris and Melo now have to do three things for us!

Not one, not two, but three!"

"That's not fair, LeBron, you have Qin as a teammate, but I only have..."

On the beach, before Anthony finished speaking, his teammate Paul pushed him to the ground.

On the side, seeing this scene, James immediately dragged Qin Yue to dig a "grave" for Anthony on the beach, and together with Paul buried him in this "grave."

"Today marks the end of Carmelo Anthony."

At this moment, watching Anthony being buried in the "grave," the three of them joked together.

This was Qin Yue's first day vacationing in the Bahamas...

Four young people about the same age did nonsensical things all day long that others found hard to understand.

"Our friendship transcends time, stemming from this vacation. In the following years, our friendship deepened... it's hard to describe the feeling with words... but we all knew how close we were... and the mutual assistance between us, until..." — The Preface of the LeBron James Chapter in Qin Yue's autobiography "Mountain Peak".

...

Pleasant times are always short, and although Qin Yue established a deep friendship with James and Anthony during his vacation in the Bahamas, after the vacation was over, he still had to return to Wake Forest to complete his crucial steps before entering the NBA:

— Obtain the strength in the upcoming training arranged by Grover that can meet people's fantasies about him.

Additionally, this summer, since Paul was representing the United States youth team in the World Youth Championship, Qin Yue specially sought out Ronnie Evans, hoping he could play Paul's usual role during the upcoming summer vacation...

Hmm... the main task is to help him retrieve his balls. (Paul: ?)

In response, Evans accepted Qin Yue's invitation without any hesitation.

Actually, the reason Qin Yue invited Evans to train with him during the vacation was mainly because he had reached a point where he needed to form a team due to his rising fame.

Generally speaking, in the NBA, when stars form a team, they will choose people around them as much as possible.

Like James, who not long ago happily played in the Bahamas with Qin Yue...

He completed his team formation through arrangement early on.

Although when James entered the NBA with his team, many people viewed his team as a bunch of punks...

But it was with the help of these punks that James gradually established his commercial empire in the NBA.

Randy Mims, who manages James's personal affairs, Maverick Carter, who returned from Nike, and Rich Paul, whom James arranged to be mentored by top agent Leon Rose...

Later, the famous "LRMR," one of the most powerful marketing companies in the NBA, derived its name from the English initials of James and these three assistants.

Qin Yue understood clearly that in the future, after entering the NBA, he couldn't handle everything himself, so after long-term observation, Evans seemed to be exactly the kind of talent he urgently needed.
