On June 27, Beijing time, the NBA first-round draft day ended, and in the end, France's Rissachet and Sarr were elected as the top pick and the top spot respectively, while Canada's tall Zach Edie was selected by the Memphis Grizzlies for the ninth place in the first round.
And for Zach Edie, our country may be more familiar with his "Chinese name" - "Zhou Zhihao".
But the so-called "Zhou Zhihao" is just the "Chinese name" given to the marketing Zack Edie by our unscrupulous marketing team in China, and Zach Edie knows nothing about this name, including his parents and family.
Zach Edie was asked by the media about his Chinese ancestry and the name of "Zhou Zhihao", but he was not interested in this topic: "I don't know the name, I'm not interested in this, my country is Canada, I just want to play well and enter the NBA." ”
For Zach Edie, only his maternal grandfather's ancestral home is Guangzhou, Guangdong, China, while his father Glenn Edie and mother Julia Edie are native Canadians.
However, Zach Edie has long refused the invitation to plan or play for the mainland, and only wants to play for the Canadian national team wholeheartedly, after all, people are indeed native-born Canadians, and they have no true feelings for us, so everyone should stop "Zhou Zhihao", hot face sticking to cold ass, malicious marketing is really embarrassing!
