More
than three hundred local and international journalists and
photographers were accredited to yesterday’s press conference where
Chinese basketball star Yao Ming chose the Kerry Hotel in his home
town to make the announcement. An incredible five hours of live
television broadcast the event. Every LCD screen around the city -
even in the subway cars was beaming the story live to millions in
this mega city currently hosting the 14th FINA World
Swimming Championships.
Accompanied
by wife Ye Li, his 14-month-old daughter Yao Qinlei and his parents,
the 2.29 metre giant managed to maintain his composure under the
spotlights.
“I
had to leave the court since I suffered a stress fracture in my left
foot for the third time at the end of last year. The past six months
have been an agonizing wait. Today I am announcing a personal
decision – ending my career as a basketball player and officially
retiring.”
But
we wont see the last of Yao. “I used to say that if my career as a
professional basketball players ends one day, I hope its just a comma
and not a full stop in my life,” Yao added.
