《Be happy with sports 》Chapter 281: New Stage at College Basketball 5
Advertisement
Jake understood that the most important part was to develop the touchscreen technology because it was the basis of the entire product and what would ensure its patent, and how he thought the work was almost at the beginning and so it would take even more almost 2 years to get ready.
But the important thing was that Charlie's team could do a great job in this product and technology development, so he could in the future maybe start a smartphone company, the next step would be the development of the Android system.
But that would only be possible if Charlie's team could quickly finish this product, fortunately, Charlie and his friends signed a contract that protected Jake from the possibility of Charlie and his friends developing technology with other companies.
"Very well, work well in this part and do not fail backward, the touchscreen will be the basis for our product, try to work as much as possible to put this on a small screen and that is very efficient using almost all the screen space as a touchscreen."
Charlie liked to talk about it with Jake because it looked like Jake talked about the product as if he had used it before, so it would be easier for him to continue the product development, and as Jake had said the part of the technology development and the product was much more important.
Even if they took the longest time it was better not to have many flaws in the product, otherwise, it would be much harder to fix the flaws after the product almost ready, Charlie was happy to work with Jake who understood that they had to take to do a good job.
"Keep Me informed of the progress of your work."
Jake had had some ideas in these months about several ways he could use touchscreen technology before even trying to make money with the patent if Apple still decides to make the same product.
Jake was planning to invest a lot in this project and wanted to have some returns of this, after all after he had the patent in hand he could create the product he wanted without having to worry about his product being copied without him receiving any money that.
After all, from the beginning he thought of making money with the patent of this and not with the product itself, he could end up earning a lot of money with the sales of products with the Multi-touch, but he would not bother to gain anything from it.
It's been a while since Jake talked to Emily too, he had let her take care of all his investments and projects and asked not to be disturbed unless something very important had happened until he returned to Miami.

Because if he didn't do that, Emily would almost always disturb him by talking about the profits he had made with his investments, he already knew very well how much he could win and when the time was right to sell the shares for example.
So, he didn't need Emily to always talk to him about how the stocks surrendered in just a few months, he understood how incredible all this could be in her vision, but for him, it was something natural.
When he returned to Miami to be with his mother in a few days he was sure that Emily would go there to talk to him, Jake also had to talk to Matthew, he was curious to know how the company would come out with this year's profits, it was expected to be more than last year.
The other day the Tar Heels team had their ninth game, they would be playing as a visitor again and that would be the penultimate game before the end of the year parade, the Tar Heels team was now running a 7-player sequel and wanted to further improve that sequel to today's game.
The opposing team was the UMarse Minutemen team, they had an average team that year and were well compared to some previous opponents of the Tar Heels team, they came from a defeat in the previous game and so far, didn't have a good season.
Taking all this into account in this game the team Tar Heels was with an advantage in both player skills and morale for the results this season, coach Smith was still uncomfortable with this excitement of the team, but believed that after the sermon he had given to the players after the last game they would not underestimate the opponent.
In the first game time, the entire team played well and although they did not show an incredible performance was very good for the coach, Jake can play for 16 minutes in that first time and did 19 points, 4 assists, 3 rebounds, and 2 steals, was a great performance that led the team.
In the second time, they still led with ease the score and Jake can play for 16 minutes achieving 18 points, 5 assists, 4 rebounds, and 2 steals, was one of Jake's best performances this season and the game he made more points.
Thus, the team Tar Heels won the game for 91 points against 66 of the team UMarse Minutemen, this was the eighth win followed by the team and coach Smith was also beginning to be satisfied with this result.
Even Jake who already knew it would be so was getting excited about this sequence of victories, when he was at the high school it was easy to maintain a much larger sequence of victories than this and still be the national champion.

But he knew that the games at the university would be more difficult and even with his skills he could not make so much difference in the toughest games, fortunately, he had now a team that could be champion even without him on the team, so Jake was confident of winning the NCAA tournament this year.
The other day Jake was resting after his daily racing training, he had much more ease in making the 50 km even running faster after winning the 2 points of reward statistics by winning the New York Marathon.
Of course, it was far from enough that he could get enough physical preparation to further increase his running speed, but after gaining a few more points of statistics he could try again.
If Jake could increase his running speed and lower his current time by km in 3 seconds he might be able to break the 2-hour barrier at the final time of the marathon, with a time like this he would be the fastest runner in history by dozens of Years old.
Of course, with his current stats if he ate a stamina bar in the middle of the race he could easily break this barrier from 2 hours and get even 2 minutes below that time, but he couldn't bear the shame of using it to break the record.
Not to mention that he had all the time in the world, usually elite runners who win marathons can run up to 40 years old and Jake was still 17 at that time, who knows until then he could earn another 30 or 40 points of statistics and become a superhuman for sports.
Zack was also running every day, he now trained more times in the week than Jake who could not train on game days, all his roommates decided not to come home and would be at the university until Jake went to Miami.
Jake was very happy with the consideration that his friends had with him, yet he recommended several times that they would go home to spend more time with their families and not just stay for him.
Unfortunately, even if some of them had a good relationship with their families, they didn't want to stay longer with their families and preferred to travel or stay with their friends, none of them had the same close relationship that Jake had with Eva.
Even so Jake couldn't say anything to them as counsel, because if he hadn't seen his mother die in his past life after she suffered so much to take care of him, he might as well be the same as his friends.
As his friend Zack was running every day, Jake saw that his physical form was getting much better after a few months of training, after all, Zack also did a training routine at the academy last night by Jake.
So, Jake decided to increase the intensity of Zack's training at the Academy daily so that he would improve even faster and reach the pinnacle of his physical form, as for the 6 km per day race training was enough for Zack today.
Zack wanted to just do training to run a marathon, but Jake was trying to create an elite athlete and improve the health and physical quality of his friend, even Zack could do his daily training in much less time than when he started running.
In his training with the basketball team, he still did more training of plays with Carter and Jamison, Jake could learn several things while playing with both, after all, Carter and Jamison were excellent players in their positions as SG and SF.
As they played in the NBA for many years although, in the present, they did not have the same skills and experience they will have in the coming years, they still had enough skill to show several useful moves for Jake to learn.
Jake also watched Serge Zwikker and Ademola Okulaja, they were excellent players in their positions, Zwikker knew to use his height and strength very well to fight for many rebounds in the games, Okulaja was also good at the rebounds.
In fact, after Jake joined the team, they hardly lost a defensive rebound, the offensive rebounds were also often achieved by Vince Carter and Antawn Jamison, coach Smith was also clever and always took some players out of court at different times.
So Shammond Williams who was also very talented could play more time in various positions, the same happened with Ed Cota, so the team was certainly stronger and more efficient that way.
Jake had learned a lot from his teammates at the high school and with all his experience in the imagination training space, but the level of the players at the university was something that Jake could not compare in other positions.
Just in the position of PG and SG that Jake always put more effort to improve that he could even be better than his teammates, he could also play as well as SF, but had no way to compare to Antawn Jamison of his team.

[Archive] Legend of the Nameless Hero
A WhiteSamurai original Web Novel There are always the mysterious tales of heroes, those who fight against the Demons, who fight for justice and those who head mighty quests against tyranny. Heroes that are born to destiny, Heroes that are forged through tragedy, and Heroes that are brought to the world in times of great peril and strife. Not all true Heroes are wanted or beloved, but all life understands, that throughout all time and space, for those who truly stand as Heroes, they never need to be called one. The sands of time are the only true judge for those who journey upon the true path, the only one they will ever need. This is the tale, no, the Legend, the Legend of the one who throughout all time, would forever be, the First Hero. This is Their story, a story of true hardship, of a sorrow greater than any other that would stand as a symbol of inspiration no matter the test of time. A tale of darkness, a true curse, an impending evil hidden beyond the horizons that threatened the very future of existence. This is the tale, of one of the few great figures, who, in the face of true evil, continued to stand. . . . _______________________________________________________________ :Disclaimer: _______________________________________________________________ . . . All Chapters are subject to sudden revision, scrapping, or complete removal from the canonical storyline. The author of "Legend of the Nameless Hero" uses RoyalRoad as a method of experimentation with genre's and writing styles for Fantasy-style works for the sake of eventual publication. The end result isn't to release perfect chapters on RoyalRoadl, but eventually develop the story as intended using the best material to produce the highest quality work. The best mentality when reading works from WhiteSamurai is to see it as the ability to read and review pre-release transcripts or "Rough Copies" before publication. Viewer discretion and maturity are both requested and required. . . . _______________________________________________________________ :About: _______________________________________________________________ . . . This story follows direct character point of views along with an intentional third person narrative to explain to the readers what the characters won't. (I don't use my characters to go give extensive explanations for every last thing like EVERYTHING DOES) This tale shall encompass the life of the Hero from the moment she is summoned into the Kingdom of Kremor, to the Legendary Final Clash. This isn't your run of the mill hack and slash raise an army and conquer, I don't follow that bandwagon. Real life holds politics, intrigue, economics, structure, populations, civil opinions, history, psychology, heart, suffering, wonder, advancement, curiosity, ambition, and so many more things that would lead to me hitting some character limit. I refuse to take the same route that others use by simply ignoring these factors, my worlds, my stories, are as real as they get. There's no plot armor here, if someone screws up, they've screwed up and there's no magical sword in a well for them. I write in 'Seasons' not 'Books' as many often do, these are generally, not always, hundreds of chapters long, though as I have yet to finish a season, the average length is in the air. I go by an ideal of what I call 'Universal Lore' which includes the policy that things that exist within the story don't follow the rule where the Protagonist needs to be there so that it will happen. There will be some things that will happen, and the hero, and sometimes the reader, won't know happened until they enter a place, or news gets to them. A person needs to be in the right place at the right time, I hate plot holes and meta characters above all else... For my works, comments are practically demanded as reactions, thoughts, and various viewpoints are like sweet fuel to my writing spirit. Reviews are highly accepted and appreciated, BUT ONLY IF THEY ARE EDUCATED AND THOROUGHLY EXPLAINED. Those that throw down a low rating ARE HIGHLY REQUESTED to extensively detail and explain their viewpoints on the work. They should also be willing to come back to the work at a later date if messaged by the Author, Me, due to issues they mentioned being taken care of. I'm never against scrapping a chapter or rewriting several paragraphs if there are character or story discrepancies. I want the highest quality work possible, and every comment, every review, are tools for me to use to further that goal. . . . Enjoy the work. ~White Status: (Ongoing)
