Europa, French Fifth Republic. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It is a country located in western Europe, and the Chinese are accustomed to calling it France, and occasionally France. France is the third largest country in Europe by land area and the largest in the west. The Eiffel Tower and the Arc de Triomphe are symbols of France, and those who come here are no different from those who have never been to France if they don't visit them.

The French feel very romantic, and the "French kiss" is known all over the world. The people of this country love sports, the Tour de France is world-famous, and the world-famous parkour was invented by the French.

The French love more than that, but also football. The French team has produced many superstars in history, and there are two most representative figures, one is Platini and the other is Zidane. France has also won two European Championships and one World Cup, and Zidane's "Marseille maneuver" has been emulated by countless descendants.

The city of Ajaccio is relatively unknown to many Chinese, but if you talk about Napoleon Bonaparte, it should be very familiar, Ajaccio is Napoleon's hometown. It is an old fishing port and the capital of South Corsica, France.

Since the French love football, it is only natural that football teams are indispensable in the city, and the club Ajaccio that bears the name of the city is one of them. But Ajaccio have nothing to brag about, and they were in the second division last season and have finally made it to the first division this season. People will always like the team in their own city, and the French are no different. So although Ajaccio is not as good as Paris Saint-Germain, Marseille and other Ligue 1 powerhouses, there has never been a shortage of supporters.

An Rong's old friend Tian Lei just moved here last week, in fact, he could consider moving somewhere else, just because he used to be the head coach of the second team of Ajaccio Club and is familiar with the city, so he considered moving here. Ajaccio heard that he was back, and invited him again to let him continue to lead the youth army, but Tian Lei politely declined.

He is not like An Rong, he likes the position of coach, he is more of an interest, and when this interest fades, he loses his initial impulse.

It's been more than a month since the league ended, but the amateur competition continues. Today is Saturday, there is an amateur competition in Corsica, Tian Lei is idle and plans to go and see. It just so happened that his son, who was not yet 10 years old, was also a football fan, so he took him to watch the game.

He arrived a little late, and when he arrived, the game was already underway. There weren't many people in the humble stands, most of them were friends and relatives of the players. Amateur competitions like this are played all over Europe, but also in France, where there are several games a week, and today is just one of many competitions.

The stands are rudimentary, the pitch is rudimentary, the field is very dilapidated, there is not a few grasses, and it looks like the loess slopes of China. The goal is also very old, and the net hanging on the goal seems to float away as if the wind blows.

Tian Lei took his son to sit down casually, but in fact, he didn't look very seriously, so he just found something to pass the time. He glanced at the scoreboard on the sidelines, and the score was 2:0!

The game didn't play for long, only 17 minutes, and there was a two-goal lead, and it seemed that the difference in strength between the two teams was a bit big.

Tian Lei's eyes swept from the court, and inadvertently, he saw a yellow-skinned and black-haired teenager dribbling the ball, this teenager's skills are very good, simple, unpretentious, and a casual action can shake off the defenders in front of him.

It's definitely a good ball sense that supports his skills, but I don't know what country this teenager is from. RB people? Or Koreans?

Tian Lei didn't react for a while, until he heard someone shouting at the young man: "Chen, pass it here!" The young man surnamed "Chen" picked up his feet and passed the ball to his teammates, which was very good, but unfortunately his teammates couldn't score the ball.

"Oh, my original surname is Chen, this is a Chinese...... Wait!" Tian Lei seemed to remember something: "Chen ...... Old...... Could it be ......"

Thinking of this, Tian Lei stood up and observed the young man surnamed "Chen", who was about ten years old, no more than twenty years old, and was one meter eight tall, about one meter eighty-three. Tian Lei decided to take a closer look at his technical style to see if it was the person An Rong said.

After a few scrambles, the ball went to the feet of "Chen" again, the striker in the team began to run, "Chen" took the ball forward, and the two players on the other side blocked one after the other, and he shook it lightly.

"Light dribbling pace, no flashy movements, no drag on every pass, this ...... This is the same as An Rong described. Tian Lei muttered softly. He couldn't see the boy clearly now, and he couldn't compare it from the photo. Even if he saw it clearly, he might not be able to confirm it from the photo, An Rong gave him a photo of a sixteen-year-old boy at that time.

On the court, the yellow-skinned and black-haired Chinese boy shot directly from a distance of 25 meters from the penalty area, and the ball blasted like a cannonball, hit the crossbar, and bounced into the net.

The scoreboard on the sidelines became 3:0, and the game has only been played for 28 minutes so far!

The opponent's goalkeeper shouted at him loudly: "I said Chen, you are so good, why don't you go to the professional league? Don't you think you are wasting your youth by spending time here?"

The boy smiled and replied in French: "As long as you feel happy, you can play football anywhere." ”

Tian Lei felt that it was different, that the professional league and the amateur competition were not the same thing at all, how could they be confused? But up to now, he could not conclude that this teenager was a malleable talent just from these short 30-odd minutes. He had been the head coach of Ajaccio's second-tier team and knew how to identify a young man.

In the next game, almost all of the Chinese teenager was performing, and the opponent couldn't stop him at all, and sometimes the three of them couldn't stop him from moving forward. What is the concept that three people can't stop one person? This is definitely the gap between the professional level and the amateur level!

He scored another goal just before half-time and his team is now 4-0 up. Tian Lei saw that he had scored two goals, but his teammates shouted loudly: "Great, Chen, you have already scored four goals!"

Tian Lei was thinking that he could have scored more goals in the second half, but when it came to the second half, he significantly reduced the number of shots on goal and was more creating opportunities for his teammates. In half an hour, he assisted his teammates twice to score, and the score was rewritten twice.

The score of 6:0 was basically a foregone conclusion, and the opponent only scored a face-saving goal in the end. Tian Lei noticed that the teenager did not have a single shot on goal in the second half, and he always shook the opponent away and passed the ball to his teammates. If it weren't for his teammates wasting too many chances, the score would have been more than just 6:1!

Tian Lei also noticed another detail, when the team scored the fifth and sixth goals, the teenager was not as excited as other teammates, he always walked back to the half court silently, although both goals came from his direct assists.

Tian Lei could see that at this moment, the young man was a little lonely. This sense of loneliness stems from his environment, and the people around him are not at the same level as him at all, and he does not have the joy of defeating his opponents, not at all.

is like a peerless master of martial arts, he stood at the peak of martial arts, overlooking the world, but in the end, he found that there was no one in the world who could be his opponent, and he gradually felt a sense of loneliness. This is a feeling of being in a high place, and what is the point of this teenager in such an environment, even if he wins the game?

Is he really happy? His teammates regard him as an indispensable member of the team, but with his ability, he is not just mixed with such an amateur team!

After the game, Tian Lei took his son down to find him, he was now packing his things and preparing to leave, Tian Lei greeted him in French very friendly.

"Hello, lad. ”

The young man glanced at Tian Lei and saw that this middle-aged man about forty years old had the same skin color as himself, so he smiled and said, "Hello." "It's also in French.

"You played the ball great. ”

"Thank you. ”

"I just don't know, what country are you from? rb Korea? or ......"

"I am Chinese. What about you?"

"I used to be Chinese and immigrated to France many years ago. Tian Lei immediately changed his Chinese.

"Oh. The teenager also answered in Chinese, and went to pack his things again.

Tian Lei looked at him and felt that he was somewhat similar to the person in the photo, so he asked, "My name is Tian Lei, I don't know what to call a young man?"

"Chen Zihua. ”

The simple three words were heard in Tian Lei's ears, but they were as loud as a thunderclap!

"Sure enough......"

Chen Zihua didn't understand: "What?"

"Nothing, little brother, would you be interested in talking to me?"

Chen Zihua hesitated for a moment before saying, "Next time, I have something to go back now, and I still have homework to do." I'll be playing here next week, and if you want to talk to me, I can come early next time. Sorry, I'll go first. ”

After speaking, Chen Zihua left with his bag. Tian Lei looked at his back and suddenly said, "An Rong." ”

Chen Zihua's body trembled obviously, and he quickly stopped and turned around slowly.

Tian Lei looked at Chen Zihua with a smile on his face, Chen Zihua was very surprised, and asked, "You, do you know Coach An Rong?"

"Yes. You're the one An Rong once promoted from a school soccer team, right?"

"How do you know?"

"I also know that you know Zhang Shujie, Yan Tao, Li Mu, Wang Shihan, and Zhou Ying!"

The bag in Chen Zihua's hand fell to the ground, he rushed up and asked urgently: "Uncle, how do you know these things? What is the relationship between you and Coach An Rong? And the people you just mentioned, they ...... They ...... now"

"Okay kid, don't talk about this yet, go to my house first, and I'll tell you slowly. ”

******************

A cup of fragrant coffee was placed in front of Chen Zihua, but he didn't drink a sip, he looked at the photos in Tian Lei's mobile phone, these photos were given to Tian Lei by An Rong, saying that if he could find Chen Zihua one day, he would show him the photos and tell him that his friends had never forgotten him.

The photos were taken when they were in high school, when everyone was innocent and their bright smiling faces were full of youth. When Chen Zihua saw Zhou Ying, tears flowed out unconsciously.

Tian Lei's son was watching him from the side, and he didn't know why this big brother suddenly cried. Tian Lei's wife handed him a tissue, and he took it: "Thank you." ”

Tian Lei sighed and said, "I said everything I had to say." Eiko...... It's An Rong, he's been looking for you, and your friends are also trying to find you, but in the past three years, you haven't heard from you. ”

Chen Zihua put the tissue that wiped his tears into the garbage basket: "I don't have the face to see them." ”

"Is it because you haven't played professionally, so you don't feel like you have the face to face them?"

Chen Zihua didn't speak, in the past few years in France, he also thought about playing in the professional league, but his father disagreed, so he had to give up.

"Kid, I didn't say you, even if you don't play in a professional league, you should always contact your friends, right?"

Chen Zihua lowered his head: "I was wrong. ”

Tian Lei patted him on the shoulder: "It's good to know your mistakes." You're perfectly capable of competing professionally, so why don't you go? Can you tell me why? I see if it can help you. ”

"My father didn't allow it. He felt that the stakes were too big, and he might as well go to school. ”

"What about your mother?"

"I ...... I do not know. ”

"I see, maybe you have unspeakable grievances. Well, I'll ask you a question, and you'll answer me honestly. ”

"What's the problem?"

"Do you want to play? I'm not talking about amateur games, I'm talking about professional leagues. ”

"Think!" Chen Zihua almost blurted out without any consideration. He saw Zhang Shujie and others becoming professional players one by one, he was very envious, and he also hoped to embark on this road.

"That's good. I can arrange it for you if you want, as far as your father is concerned...... How about you try to talk to your mother and let her convince your father?"

Chen Zihua gritted his teeth: "Okay! I'll try!"

"Then deal with it as soon as possible. I've been a manager in the second tier of Ajaccio before, and I have a bit of a relationship with the team administrators, so I'll take you to a tryout in a few days and you can convince your family first. Also, don't forget to give your friends a call, they're worried about you. ”

"I haven't contacted them for a long time and their mobile phone number has ......"

"It doesn't matter. The last time An Rong found me, he had already copied everyone's numbers to me. ”

Tian Lei said and took out a notebook, which was full of the mobile phone numbers of Zhang Shujie's old friends.

Chen Zihua took it in his hand and said, "I'll try to convince my father first, hoping that he will allow me to play, and after that, I will definitely call them and tell them the good news!"
