Chapter 60 Facing the Future

The Chinese Olympic team won the Olympic gold medal, which was the biggest news in China that day.

The Chinese team's ability to win the Olympic championship exceeded many expectations, and the surprise was particularly strong.

The next day, the game was fully reported in major domestic newspapers, and even the story of the hat was dug up by the media. Reporters found the fan who threw the hat to the Olympic team leader Guo Bing after the game. The Olympic team returned the hat to him after the game, with the signatures of all the Olympic team players on it. And head coach Blazevic wrote a message in English to thank the fan inside the hat.

The fan who borrowed the hat told reporters that he originally wanted to do something for the Olympic team, and he never expected that the hat would come back to him with so many extras. He said he would never wear this hat again and would keep it forever.

Some fans ridiculed this hat as the "hero hat"...

Everyone is praising the Chinese team in various ways, but most people don't think there is anything wrong with the praise.

Of course, there are also a very small number of people who insist on coming out to increase their presence at this time. It is said that winning the Olympic championship, which is not valued by traditional football powers, is like winning the World Cup championship. Such carnival can only show shame.

As a result, people who hold this view and come out to enhance their presence are scolded and cannot take care of themselves.

At this time of national carnival, if there are idiots who have to show off their calm superiority, they are going against the people.

Last year's Asian Cup, the whole process also made the fans happy, but the final result was not perfect. The Chinese team lost the final and only finished as runner-up. Although the performance is very good, in football, which pays more attention to results, runner-up means failure. So the domestic atmosphere at that time was definitely not as hot as it is now.

One day later, the entire Chinese Olympic team participated in the closing ceremony of the London Olympics, which somewhat made up for their regret of not attending the opening ceremony. At that time, the Chinese Olympic team was preparing for the second Olympic group match and did not have the time or energy to attend the opening ceremony.

Therefore, they were absent from the much-anticipated opening ceremony. At that time, no one cared that the National Olympic team was missing from the delegation square at the opening ceremony. Anyway, Chinese football is mostly an outcast of the Chinese people. They only use swear words when they need to vent their emotions. Just like a spittoon, it will always be placed in a dark and smelly corner such as the toilet when you are not using it. Only when you need to spit will you think of taking it out and using it.

But as the Olympics progressed, the Chinese Olympic team used their actual performance to draw everyone's attention and attention back to them.

Since facing South Korea in the knockout rounds, the Olympic team has been the focus of discussion and attention.

Until they won the gold medal in the final, the Olympic team suddenly became the heroes of the Chinese people.

This time they participated in the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games, and they were also the focus of everyone's attention. The TV broadcasts gave the Olympic team players multiple shots.

In the camera, the players of the Olympic team were smiling happily.

After participating in the closing ceremony, the Chinese Olympic team will follow the Olympic delegation back to China in batches. I believe that by that time, there will be a large number of fans at the Capital International Airport to welcome them.

Subsequently, according to the practice of the Chinese Olympic delegation, athletes with outstanding performance in the Olympic Games will serve as representatives of outstanding athletes and participate in tours with the delegation in Hong Kong, Macau and other places.

As the outstanding collective of the Chinese delegation in this Olympic Games, the National Olympic Team will definitely have someone participating as a representative.

But this representative is certainly not any one of the Five Little Dragons.

Because after the Olympic Games, it is not far from the start of the European League. The five little dragons play in the Bundesliga, La Liga and Serie A respectively.

The first round of the new Bundesliga season is on August 24, with Dortmund hosting Werder Bremen.

The first round of Serie A is one day later than the Bundesliga. Guo Nu's Siena debuted on August 26th and faced Turin at home.

The first round of La Liga is earlier, starting on August 18th. Because the loan contract between Chelsea and Atletico Madrid was for two years, Sun Pan will continue to play for Atletico Madrid in the new season. On August 19, Atletico Madrid will challenge Levante away from home.

He Ying's problem is a little more complicated. He was loaned to Valladolid by Barcelona last season and performed very well. Now that his loan contract has expired, it is said that Valladolid hopes to buy him out, but now Barcelona does not want to let him go. During the Olympics, there was news that Barcelona would transfer He Ying to the first team. At the same time, many clubs are interested in He Ying in the transfer market. Especially after his outstanding performance in the Olympics, he has no worries about where to start.

So now no one knows which team He Ying will play for next season.

Since the Olympic Games end on August 12th, and there is less than a week left before La Liga, these overseas players who participated in the Olympic Games must return to their respective teams to train, run in with the team, and prepare for the new season. . How can you have time to travel with the Olympic team?

This kind of publicity treatment falls on domestic players. The Five Little Dragons will not even return to China with the Olympic team. They return directly from the UK to their respective teams, avoiding the need to fly back to Europe after returning to China. Tossing back and forth.

※※※

The majority of the National Olympic team followed the delegation back to China, and the Five Little Dragons who had studied abroad also returned to the team one after another.

He Ying was sitting on the plane flying back to Barcelona from London, holding her chin in her hand and turning her head to look at the blue sky and white clouds outside the window in trance.

He remembered a long conversation he had with Zhou Yi before leaving London, about his future and about Zhou Yi's future.

…

"I actually don't really recommend that you stay in Barcelona, ​​He Ying." Zhou Yi said. "You were basically useless in this season's pre-season training. You did not train with the Barcelona first team. This will definitely affect your performance in the new season, and will make Vilanova doubt your status. I I feel like you won’t be able to play any games in the first team for a while.”

"Although not everyone can be a substitute in Barcelona, ​​I think it doesn't make sense to you now." Zhou Yi continued. "You have already tasted the benefits of playing games at Valladolid and you should not go back to being without football. If your good performance at Valladolid is just to get you from La Masia to the Barcelona first team Sitting on the bench feels pointless to me.”

He Ying said nothing, lowered his head and listened quietly.

"I know you are a fan of Barcelona, ​​and you must be eager to play in Barcelona. So I suggest you to save the country. Now don't worry about whether you can play in Barcelona. Go out first and go to a team that can guarantee you a chance to play. Stable After playing games, quickly improving your own strength, and accumulating enough experience and reputation, one day, when you return to the Barcelona first team, you will be the main player. But now, you can only There is no point in being a substitute for Messi and the others."

He Ying raised his head: "So do you think I should rent or transfer?"

Zhou Yi said: "I think if you want to have greater development, a direct permanent transfer is the best."

Hearing what Zhou Yi said, He Ying lowered his head again, said nothing, and fell into silence again.

Zhou Yi knew that He Ying was hesitant. After all, his dream was to play in the Barcelona first team and become a real Barcelona player. Now he is asked to leave Barcelona on a permanent transfer. Who can accept it easily?

That's all Zhou Yi decided to say. There is no point in saying any more. Whether transfer or loan, it is He Ying's own decision. He can only provide advice, but cannot make decisions for He Ying.

So he said: "Of course this is my own opinion. You can refer to it, but you don't necessarily have to listen to me. You can choose to stay in Barcelona. At most, the competition will be fiercer."

Hearing this, He Ying nodded: "I understand, I will seriously consider it. Thank you, Zhou Yi."

"You're welcome, friends should help each other and just ask if you have any questions." Zhou Yi smiled and waved his hand.

Seeing Zhou Yi's smile, He Ying suddenly thought of something, so he asked: "What about you, Zhou Yi, will you leave Dortmund this summer?"

Before the Olympics, there were many rumors about Zhou Yi's transfer. After Dortmund let go of Shinji Kagawa, it really seemed like the kind of club that didn't want to make progress. Can such a team retain the brilliant Zhou Yi? ? Very doubtful...

However, at that time, Zhou Yi made it clear internally and externally that he did not care about transfers during the Olympics, and would wait until after the Olympics to discuss any transfer news.

So even though various rumors about Zhou Yi's transfer were flying all over the place as the Olympics progressed, Zhou Yi really didn't respond to any of them.

Some media speculated whether Zhou Yi had already reached an agreement in private and would announce it as soon as the Olympics were over. Otherwise, how could he be so calm?

Facing He Ying's sudden attack, Zhou Yi calmly shook his head: "No, I will not leave Dortmund."

"Why? I don't think Dortmund can keep you anymore." He Ying was a little surprised. "With your ability, you can definitely go to a bigger team, go to a real giant, and compete for the Champions League championship."

Zhou Yi smiled and said: "I can also compete for the Champions League championship in Dortmund. We can also participate in the Champions League in the new season!"

"I'm telling the truth, Zhou Yi, don't think my words are harsh. But I think Dortmund has no strength and it is impossible to win the Champions League." He Ying said.

"I don't think so. You see, last season, we were the top eight of the Champions League, and last season we were the top four of the Champions League. We are improving every year." Zhou Yi is quite optimistic.

"But that doesn't mean you can reach the finals this season and become the top two, right?"

"Why not?" Zhou Yi spread his hands, "According to the laws of the arithmetic sequence, I think this is completely possible!"

"What does this have to do with the arithmetic sequence!" He Ying couldn't help complaining.

"Eight, four, two, eight, four, two, arithmetic sequence." Zhou Yi gestured with his fingers. "Starting from the second term in a sequence, the difference between each term and its previous term is equal to the same constant..."

He Ying quickly interrupted him: "No, no, no, don't make up the word count."

"Okay." Zhou Yi shrugged.

"The departure of Shinji Kagawa will have a big impact on Dortmund, right?" He Ying asked.

"There must be some influence. But it's quite normal. The key is... didn't I leave?" Zhou Yi said with a smile.

He Ying didn't know if Zhou Yi really had this confidence, or if he was joking and talking casually.

But it seems that Zhou Yi has a very clear plan for his future. At least he will not leave Dortmund this summer.

In fact, sometimes I really envy people who know exactly what they want to do and how to do it...

Maybe Zhou Yi has never been confused about his future, right?

Withdrawing from the memories, He Ying returned to the plane.

An announcement rang in the cabin, Barcelona was under the clouds, and the plane was preparing to land.

Zhou Yi's career has been successful so far, which should be related to his clear understanding of what he wants.

So what do you want?

What is the title of "Barcelona player"? Or will he become a star sought after by European giants like Zhou Yi?

The plane began to land, bringing with it a sense of weightlessness, as if falling from the clouds.

In the slight feeling of weightlessness, He Ying realized that this time, he had to truly face his future, and there was no longer any reason to escape.

Should he stay in Barcelona and work hard to compete? Or completely leave this city he once dreamed of? (To be continued)). If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian (). Your support is my biggest motivation. Mobile phone users please go and read. )
