Chapter 4 Who's Knocking on My Window?
II vividly remembers that when he first entered university, his classmates came from all over the world.
In the dormitory, everyone is meeting for the first time, unfamiliar? Then I'll introduce myself. Done with the introduction? But you can't always introduce yourself, and you can't always flaunt yourself and your hometown, right?
At this time, one of my classmates talked about football in their hometown, and the dormitory suddenly changed. At this time, everyone was no longer polite, pretending to be gentlemen, and began to foam at the mouth.
Because at that time, when I was a child, when I didn't go to school, my parents were not fans, there was no one to teach, and there was no opportunity to play football. When I was a teenager, after going to school, physical education classes were sometimes taken up by the class owner, and there were people to teach, but there was no time to play football. But by the time I got to university, I could only talk about football basically.
So in the dormitory, everyone began to play football.
Playing football, if you really play the ball well, play well, people may be convinced. Because playing football, there are comparisons, references, and test standards, and if you don't play really well, ...... Most people will be convinced.
Speaking of football, I'm sorry, no matter how much you compete, you won't admit defeat. Because when it comes to football, no one thinks that they understand worse than others, we are all fans, no matter whether they are real fans or fake fans, no one will admit it.
Everyone first talked about the stars, height, weight, hobbies, and technical characteristics, and real fans can report them in one bite. When it comes to how good the stars are, in terms of football skills, it is impossible to be elegant and popular. Everyone began to divide into teams, and the people in the same group enjoyed their own stars together, and then jointly denigrated each other's star idols.
I Qin Shi saw that this could not hurt the harmony between classmates. So he sublimated the skills of the stars of both sides into art, and humbled himself that he couldn't do it, so he pretended to be an appreciation, a gesture of artistic enjoyment. In fact, Qin Shi didn't understand art at all at that time, and he was all parroting. Of course, this also won everyone's praise.
However, a wave has not ended, and a wave has been born again.
In the dormitory, the conversation began to escalate, and tactical discussions began. But that's really not called a discussion, the classmates were still warm and affectionate just now, and at this time, they began to quarrel. Because when it comes to team tactics, who can't just put out a few sets of formations on paper, in fact, this is really 50 steps and 100 steps.
I Qin Shi really has no choice and mud this time, he is not even a pseudo-fan now, he really doesn't understand tactics, everyone is the same, you have to be able to remember it.
But things changed so that the second could not understand, and the afternoon passed in appreciation, enjoyment and quarrels, and it is estimated that everyone began to say that the ball was tired, but the atmosphere became harmonious, no longer strangers, and then picked up the rice bowl, on the way to the cafeteria, in groups of threes and threes.
Football, among strangers, whether you are playing, watching or talking about the ball, as long as you are involved, you can always make your voice heard. I Qin Shi was recruited by football because he said a few words and the artistic language of the mud, and gradually grew into a pseudo-fan, a kicker, of course, it has nothing to do with professional football.
Thinking back to the past, just classmates were young and in their prime, and now, looking back on the past, the years are thick.
It was a wonderful memory in the years when I was joined by football. Those classmates who often play, watch and talk together generally become iron buddies. It's not an iron buddy, often after separation, when you encounter football, you will remember and remember the time when you were together, watching and talking about football, Fengyue and your buddies at that time. Maybe then he picked up the phone and said, "Hey, buddy, what are you doing?" ”
Don't kick, don't watch and don't talk, after separation, former alumni will have one less chance to remember and remember. Time is a pig-killing knife, it will disappear everything, maybe it is impossible to remember and remember a certain student when you are old.
However, now, II, there is a strange classmate who invites me to play football, and I suddenly have a hazy feeling and agree!
The Second is in need of a way to re-enter a normal person. Because football is like a medium, a catalyst, whether you are yellow, white, or black, as long as you participate in it, it can always stimulate your enthusiasm and help you find soulmates.
In the memory of the second generation, most of the British people have such and such arrogance, but when it comes to football, even if you don't like it, pretend to like it, then most British people will see you as the same kind of person.
The second remembered the previous life, at that time, I often heard uncles and aunts always proudly say that a certain job was introduced by a certain friend and made a small profit.
Yes, playing mahjong together, this kind of similar gambling activity can make friends, but what about football?
I play football, I have teammates; I watch the ball and have a buddy; I say ball, there are Kanyou.
The second heart is moved, football may be a fate!
When Qin Shi was joined by football, although he was later occupied by the game, he did not play the ball in a regular manner, but the wild ball really did not play less, and the ball game was not watched less. At least I still know the rules of the game of football, and at that time in the dormitory, when I talked about playing football, I still won a lot of praise.
While cheering himself up, the second thought that he still knew the Emperor of the Ball.
The blonde young man was glad to see that II agreed and was willing to go to football with him, because football really is the sport that needs to be called for friends the most.
"Nat, Nat. Smith, from Australia. ”
"Hello, my name is Qin Long, Chinese."
"Wow, I know that magical country, dragon or Qin?"
"You can call me a dragon, or you can call me Qin."
"Is that the evil creature? By the way, will you also be able to do that magic kung fu? Ho-ha" said and made a Bruce Lee gesture.
Qin Long took half a step, stretched out his foot, hooked, Nat stumbled, and the second took a fish, so Nat did not fall.
"Wow, you're awesome! Is this kung fu? You can teach me kung fu, but you can't use it on the court. Nat said excitedly and blushing.
"Ha, of course, the dragons of Eastern China are not big lizards. You taught me to play football too, how about it? The second smiled heartily.
"Haha, of course that's no problem, my playing skills are very good." Nat said proudly like a little rooster.
Football is a magical thing, and here, humility is useless, just a story like no hit, no deal, for football, that can happen anytime, anywhere.
II and Nat come to the playground together.
The playground was already in full swing and full of people, and this was the time for the British to move.
On the playground, there are more students doing football practice in twos and threes.
Nat put down his backpack, unzipped it, and pulled out a pair of sneakers, a pair of shin guards, and a sweatshirt. Then he unbuttoned his shirt, put on the yellow Australian jersey, took off his jeans, put on his sports shorts, tied up his shin guards, and put on his football boots. Looking at his set of actions, the second only stared at the side.
"Hey, you didn't bring soccer boots and soccer jerseys."
The second generation doesn't have it at all now, and in the previous life, Qin Shina only used such equipment to play in the school's organized or more formal competitions, and now it is impossible to travel with him. In addition, at that time, I played wild ball between classes, and sneakers and jeans were all directly on it.
Seeing that the second shook his head, Nat was dumbfounded, so he had to say, you can easily get injured if you play football like this, otherwise, the football will be given to you, you will practice alone first, and I will play with them.
The second looked at the other people's similar outfits, nodded and said, "Okay, I'll play by myself and watch you play." ”
The soccer field in the playground has long been occupied, so Nat and some of his classmates form a team to play games.
The so-called team to play the game, in fact, is to put four piers on the grass with a schoolbag or clothes, as the goal of the two teams, and then kick in groups, no matter how many people, as long as the number of people on both sides is equal, sometimes it doesn't matter if there is one less or more, that is the catwalk display.
Looking familiar with the content of the game, the second also turned the ball upside down with great interest. As soon as I practiced the ball, I realized that the flexibility of the body was really good. In the case of such a poor sense of the ball, sometimes with the flexibility of the body, you can save the ball that has been turbulent. After practicing alone for more than 30 minutes, it feels really hearty.
Now that he sees his physical condition, he is really suitable for playing football, so he should also make a set of kicking equipment so that he can blend in with the football fan group.
On a football field in the playground, the game seemed to be over. Nat also stopped and prepared to play football with some people, but there were not enough personnel and it was almost time to eat, so Nat was also surprised.
"Hey, Dragon, what are you doing at noon? Do you have classes in the afternoon? Nat asked Qin Long.
The preparatory class mainly relies on self-study, and the teacher comes to give two hours every day, and often skips classes.
"Nat, you can go with me to buy sneakers and jerseys, I will invite you to dinner at noon, and you will still have to go to class in the afternoon!" The second replied.
"Okay, wait a minute, I'll go take a shower and change my clothes." Nat ran to the large bathhouse next to him with his bag and a cigarette, and came out a few minutes later after changing his clothes.
There is a sporting goods store on the street, and the two of them looked at a few, but they did not buy the football jersey of the Chinese national team.
Nat suggested buying a yellow Brazilian national team jersey, which is close to the color of Nate's Australian national team uniform, so that the team can be divided into a group when playing together in the future.
The second thought that it was the same, and the second also liked the Brazilian team more.
In Umbro's flagship sporting goods store, a pair of expensive Umbro spike football training boots, which were once Umbro's most iconic looks, are now nostalgic for Umbro.
It was a pair of kangaroo leather studded soccer trainers with an all-black upper and a large tongue with a white Umbro logo.
II tried it on and it was comfortable.
The second took a double-shouldered Enbao sports backpack from the shelf, which had a lot of space, and put a pair of sneakers in it, and then put on the team uniform towels, etc., and also put a football down, which was more than enough to put a few more books.
II bought another set of white England national team uniforms.
I thought to myself, next time I have the opportunity to see where there are Chinese national team uniforms for sale, in this way, if there is another set of red Chinese national team uniforms, then the home and away and spare jerseys are all colors.
Nat accompanies the second to buy a football suit, and then they go to the street on the student street.
Nishi went to a Chinese restaurant called "Seven Flavors Restaurant" for lunch.
I wonder if this Chinese restaurant next to the school is authentic Chinese food? Try it first! Isn't it a shame that you can't go back to a foreign restaurant when you invite a foreign friend to dinner?
Also, that is, the second wants to reinvent himself and celebrate a little, although it is not a word.
