For Chinese fans, as long as you know a little bit about football, you should know what Real Madrid is.

Europe's most powerful club, once hailed as the greatest team of the 20th century, is shrouded in a myriad of halos, as the old Chinese saying goes, there is no vanity under fame.

So in the first game, Real Madrid vs. Longteng, there was almost no suspense in the game, and some media commentators even said that Orient International was crazy, and we had to find an opponent with poor strength even if we lost, right? But Oriental International did not look for the worst strength, but found the strongest one.

Of course, among the four groups, Group E, where the Longteng Club is located, except for Real Madrid, the other two teams have the lowest strength among the fifteen clubs, and Oriental International has not done it at this point.

But some people said that Oriental International didn't want their team to win when they held this game.

But some people think that maybe the Dragon Club will create a miracle, but how can it be a miracle, this game is followed by sports media all over the world, and it can't be done openly, right? Otherwise, Orient International will lose face and lose face all over the world, so many people feel that it is basically impossible to get bored.

As soon as the opponent came out, the players of the Dragon Club were completely hopeless, because the players of Real Madrid are basically their idols, and no one has the strong psychology of defeating their idols, and they are just chicks in the face of Real Madrid.

As a result, the coquettish media did not calm down overnight, and some people were even predicting how many goals Real Madrid would score in the first game, and the highest prediction reached as many as 30.

Wang Ziwen has been backstage after training, he is the captain of the club's reserve team, and this Dream Cup is exciting for all the players, because they have been training for two years and have not participated in any regular matches.

Their only opponent is the main team that has participated in the Chinese Football Second Division, the reason why it is called the main team, not because their strength can stabilize the reserve team, but the top chairman decided, just started to form, they basically did not win the game with the main team players, but after a few months of training, they finally won the first game, they have been working hard, after a year, their efforts have paid off, at least ten games, they have been able to win four games.

Even the foreign players of the main team are impressed with them, and they have become best friends with each other, and the coach of the team Milan commented on them as the hope for the future of Chinese football.

But they are not proud, two years later they have almost no defeat in the game with the main team, they are gearing up one by one, hoping to enter the main team, participate in the official competition, but their decision was denied by the president of the club, and even the coach Milan personally went to the president of the club to get only a sentence "This is the chairman's decision." ”

So from that time on, they were disappointed again and again, they experienced negativity, but eager longing, until the bottom of their hearts became completely calm.

For these depressed young people, they feel that it is wrong to come to the Dragon Club, and many times they want to quit the club, but they have signed a five-year contract with the club, during which they must obey the arrangement, and if they want to leave the club, they have to pay up to 10 million liquidated damages.

They have not participated in the competition, so naturally there is no prize money, and even if they do, the pitiful prize money from the Chinese football match is not enough to compensate for these losses.

It's not so much that they've decided to stay, it's that they've resigned themselves to their fate.

Yes, they have already accepted their fate, they can't enter the main team, and they can't participate in the competition, so they completely accept their fate, but Wang Ziwen didn't give up on himself like this, because he believed that the chairman would not hide them all the time.

As the captain, Wang Ziwen does not have a best friend, because everyone in the team is his best friend, and the coach Milan once told him that if you want to win the game, you can only give them all your trust and then play with confidence.

And Milan, as a coach, he hates very much that the Chinese always like to form gangs, so in the team, as long as this set appears, Milan will directly expel the main characters from the team, even if the ball is playing well, it will not be hired.

In fact, even Milan doesn't know what the chairman is doing, and finally ushered in the Dream Cup, which is definitely an opportunity for Longteng International Club, and it is also a challenge.

This is also reasonable, after all, the players of the Dragon Club are just an emerging team, so when the organizers announced the Dragon vs. Real Madrid, Milan almost fainted, and chose the reserve team to go up, without bringing any players from the main team to participate.

When Milan angrily went to the young chairman to theorize, the chairman only said one sentence to him: "This Dream Cup is the home of the Chinese, I believe in the strength of the main team, but I don't want the world to see that I am actually playing for me with foreign players, I have no racial concept, but I have my own principles." ”

Back at the club, he repeated the words to the two teams word for word, and the main team did not have too many opinions, because there were things in the game, and the club had promised them that they would enter Europe in the future and set up a branch, so their future was not limited to China, so they naturally would not compete with their Chinese partners for places in this competition.

As opponents and friends, the members of the main team are well aware of the strength of this reserve team, with an average age of no more than 20 years old, and in Chinese terms, they are all good.

"Do you remember what I told you at the beginning, Wang Ziwen." Suddenly, a voice came into the background.

Wang Ziwen, who was sitting alone, looked over and found that it was Milan, the wise manager, like a mind reader, who knew what was going on in the hearts of each of their players.

"Remember, you told me to trust my teammates and play hard." Wang Ziwen said.

"Are you afraid?" Milan asked, sitting down next to him.

"Don't be afraid, my high school teacher once told me to fight for your dreams, if you don't have dreams, life is like a walking dead." Wang Ziwen said excitedly.

"If you have a good teacher, young people should have dreams, no matter how unrealistic and unrealistic this dream is, as long as there is, it is good." Milan patted him on the shoulder, "Be brave and play football, do your best, even if you lose, don't be ashamed of you Chinese." ”

"The Milan coach is really comforting." At this moment, another voice suddenly appeared in the background, and the two looked at each other at the same time, but they looked surprised.

"Chairman!"

"Teacher Cang!"

The two said in unison, but Milan looked at Wang Ziwen in surprise: "Your high school teacher can't be him, right?" ”

"Yes, the chairman is my teacher." Wang Ziwen said with a smile.

At this time, Milan took a deep look at Wang Ziwen, because since Wang Ziwen entered the team, he has never said in front of everyone that I am a student of the chairman.

Canglong sat on the right side of Wang Ziwen and said with a smile: "I and the coach think the opposite, don't carry the national righteousness, and don't think that losing is to disgrace the Chinese, in fact, you can't represent the Chinese, and you don't need to represent, what you need to represent is only yourself, your dreams." ”

Milan was stunned, obviously he didn't expect Canglong to say such a thing, but Wang Ziwen nodded, and then he felt much more relaxed in his heart.

"Chairman Cang really impressed me." Milan said with a smile.

"Oh, why?" Canglong asked strangely.

"No matter what you Chinese do, you like to fight for the general righteousness of the country and the nation, which is particularly prominent in sports competitions, winning is to win glory for the country, losing is to disgrace the country, but you are different, at least you tell Wang Ziwen that this is a dream, not the general righteousness of the country and the nation." Milan said with a smile.

"So I'm not a traditional Chinese, right?" Canglong laughed at himself, "Actually, I am very traditional in my heart, just like this time I don't let the main team play, but let the reserve team play, because I also have my dignity, and I have the dignity that a Chinese should have." ”

Milan smiled: "It can only be said that you are a person of integrity and disdain to let foreign players play. ”

"No, it's not integrity, it's dignity, and if I let a foreign team play, it will be a shame for me, and people all over the world will say that we have no one in China who can play." Canglong said calmly.

But this sentence caused ripples in Wang Ziwen's heart, and he suddenly thought that Chinese football was in a slump and was swept away by foreign countries like the sick man of East Asia.

"You have your knowledge, I have my evaluation." Milan didn't let up.

"Can I have a few words with my students alone?" Canglong said suddenly.

"Absolutely." As he spoke, Milan patted Wang Ziwen on the shoulder, and then left.

After Milan left, Canglong spoke, "Do you remember the question you asked me at the beginning? ”

"What?" Wang Ziwen said strangely.

"You said, you are just the most ordinary one, you have no extraordinary talent, your parents are not officials or rich businessmen, and you yourself are very mediocre." Canglong said.

Hearing this, Wang Ziwen suddenly thought that at that time, Canglong asked everyone in Class Nine to write down their dreams, but Wang Ziwen wrote such a paragraph, he was the most ordinary one.

"Do you think you're still ordinary?" Canglong asked.

Wang Ziwen nodded: "Yes, I am still very ordinary, before I came to play football, I even just had the mentality of trying, but I didn't expect to like this sport." ”

"Everyone has dreams, but many times we don't find it, maybe it's a chance encounter, maybe it's innate, but" Canglong suddenly looked at Wang Ziwen seriously, "I think the most important part of realizing your dreams is not how good you are, how capable you are, how much superiority you are born with, but ordinary." ”

"Ordinary?" Wang Ziwen smiled bitterly, "Teacher Cang, you don't want to comfort me again, actually"

"No, I'm not comforting you, any great player in the world is not born, maybe they do have extraordinary talent, but they have put in a lot of hard work." Canglong said with a smile, "And those who are born with an aura tend to lose themselves, if they can't recognize their ordinary, they will definitely become mediocre in the future, and you think that you are ordinary from beginning to end, and it is because you recognize your own insignificance that you can shine great." ”

"Really?" The waves in Wang Ziwen's heart.

"Tomorrow is your chance to greatness." Canglong smiled and said, "I promised you that I would create a fair environment for you."

"Mr. Cang, do you really think tomorrow's game will be fair to us?" Wang Ziwen asked rhetorically.

"Ahem" Canglong coughed a few times in embarrassment, but he didn't know what to say.

Wang Ziwen smiled, and suddenly his face was solemn, "Thank you, Teacher Cang, thank you for giving me a taste of my dream, and tomorrow no matter what, I will go to realize it and realize my dream that belongs to Wang Ziwen!" ”
