After qualifying for the group stage, the players were given a break of relaxation.

According to the three groups of qualifiers, the teams facing in the quarter-finals are UAE vs Iraq, Iran vs South Korea, Kuwait vs Japan, and China vs Saudi Arabia.

At noon the next day after the group stage, the national football team moved to Abu Dhabi and stayed at the Meridian Hotel to prepare for the quarterfinals with Saudi Arabia.

After a night's rest, Ou Chuliang got up early the next morning and crept out of the room.

Eating breakfast is Ou Chuliang's habit, and for Ou Chuliang, three meals a day is the least situation. More often than not, it's four meals a day, or even five meals a day. Although this way of eating less and eating more meals is relatively advanced, as long as there is this condition, Ou Chuliang will follow it.

After eating, Ou Chuliang went to the hotel's gym and began to walk slowly on the treadmill. There is no suitable venue for the players to train near the Meridian Hotel, but there is a gym, swimming pool, billiards hall and other places for people to relax and entertain.

Rather than going to the game hall to play electricity, Ou Chuliang prefers to come to the gym to sweat.

Just a few hundred meters away, Wu Chengying, who was wearing a pair of pants, walked in.

After seeing Ou Chuliang, his eyes lit up, and he walked decisively towards the treadmill next to him. Presumably, when he woke up, he found that Ou Chuliang was not around, so he found it himself.

"Have you eaten?"

"Nope." Wu Chengying replied honestly.

"Then go eat first, and then come back to training after eating."

"Oh." Wu Chengying nodded after hearing this, turned around and walked out of the gym.

Wu Chengying has no habit of eating breakfast Ou Chuliang is clear, although it is not a good habit to come to the gym to train after eating, but it is better than soaking in the gym directly on an empty stomach until noon in the morning.

After walking another two kilometers, Wu Chengying came back, with Wang Junsheng behind him.

"The plan of the day is in the morning, and I come to the gym early in the morning to work out. If the whole team is as self-disciplined as Xiaoou and you, our athletes' physical fitness will go in the morning, and it will not be easy to run for 12 minutes? Wang Junsheng happily praised it, then walked to the treadmill next to Ou Chuliang, drove the speed to the slowest speed, and stepped on it.

"Xiao Wu, I have something to say with Xiao Ou, can you go to the next place to train?"

Since the position of the treadmill where Ou Chuliang was located was the corner of the room, Wang Junsheng occupied another one next to Ou Chuliang, so Wu Chengying had to open the machine next to Wang Junsheng.

After hearing Wang Junsheng's reminder, Wu Chengying rolled her eyes and walked towards the power area without saying a word.

"You've just finished eating, do less strenuous exercise!" Ou Chuliang reminded behind him.

"Hmm." Wu Chengying snorted, picked up two 20-kilogram barbell pieces and disappeared around the corner.

"Chairman, do you have anything to do with me?" In this room in the gym, only Ou Chuliang and Wang Junsheng are left.

"I'm two years older than Lao Xu, you call him uncle, tell me not to be so foreign." Wang Junsheng said with a smile.

"Okay, Uncle Wang, what's going on with Uncle Xu? Is he better? ”

In order to take care of Ou Chuliang's emotions, after Ou Chuliang knew that Vice Chairman Xu was hospitalized, Wang Junsheng never showed up in front of him again, what he was afraid of was that Ou Chuliang chased him to inquire about the situation.

Now that Vice Chairman Xu has woken up and been transferred to the regular ward, and he will be discharged from the hospital and go home to recuperate in a few days, Wang Junsheng is relieved to see Ou Chuliang.

"It's okay, Lao Xu woke up a few days ago, after we won Syria. Now it is estimated that he will be discharged from the hospital. Wang Junsheng smiled.

"Thank goodness!" Ou Chuliang let out a long sigh and unconsciously learned from the foreigner on TV to draw a cross on his chest. "Xu Shuji has his own natural appearance, he will definitely recover!"

"Don't worry, you can play well!" Wang Junsheng said with a smile, "Your Uncle Xu has a lot of people to take care of in China, you don't have to worry about it, just play your game well." Yesterday he was on the phone with me, complimenting you on how well you controlled the rhythm at the end of the time! ”

"Everywhere, that's what a goalkeeper should do." Ou Chuliang's face was modest.

Hearing that Vice Chairman Xu could watch the live game, and that he could call people to praise people after watching the game, Ou Chuliang had a general understanding of Vice Chairman Xu's situation.

Broadly speaking, as the founder of China's football professional reform, the Football Association cannot do without Vice Chairman Xu; From the perspective of friendship, Xu Ou and Ou are like father and son, and Ou Chuliang really regards Vice Chairman Xu as a relative.

Lao Xu also said, I hope you don't worry about his condition. We must make persistent efforts to lead the Chinese team to achieve better results. ”

Wang Junsheng deliberately bit heavily when he said the word "lead", and looked at Ou Chuliang with a playful expression.

"Uncle Wang, what are you talking about, how can I talk about the word 'leading' at my young age? If you want to talk about leadership, you have to look at Coach Qi and Brother Xu Fan. ”

On the national football team, Xu Hong is the captain, and General Fan is the vice captain.

Wang Junsheng was just joking, although he also knew that with Ou Chuliang's ability, he was fully qualified to sit on an equal footing with other international players. But China is a society of personal feelings, and the stability and unity of the locker room is certainly not something that a 19-year-old can handle.

Now Ou Chuliang and General Fan have a good relationship, and Xu Hong often praises Ou Chuliang behind his back. Seeing that Ou Chuliang could do this, Wang Junsheng was already very satisfied.

After haha, Wang Junsheng changed the topic again.

"Chu Liang, there is another matter, which was also handed over to me by Chairman Yuan in person yesterday."

Hearing Yuan Weimin's words, Ou Chuliang was also curious: "What did Uncle Yuan say?"

"Your Uncle Yuan said, he found a few experts to find out about your YOYO test, and then held a few meetings, all of whom thought that this physical training method was more scientific and advanced. However, it has only been implemented for two or three years in 12 minutes, and if the regulations are suddenly changed, I am afraid that it will be left behind in the people. ”

"Uh-huh, that's right." Ou Chuliang could only nod at this time.

"So you Uncle Yuan said. If we want to change the policy, our men's football team has to come up with decent results. ”

"Decent grades? Refers to..."

Seeing Ou Chuliang coming up, Wang Junsheng's face was satisfied, and the fox's tail gradually appeared.

Chairman Yuan said that the men's football team should not be set too rigid, otherwise it will be self-defeating due to too much pressure. Top three! Wang Junsheng raised three fingers, "As long as we enter the top three, our Asian Cup will be a great success!" ”

"Top three?" Ou Chuliang smacked his lips.

"That's right, it's the top three."

China's best finish in the Asian Cup was second in the 1984 Asian Cup in Singapore, when the final opponent was Saudi Arabia, which is now the opponent of the Chinese team in the next match.

If the Chinese team wants to enter the top three, they must take Saudi Arabia.

"In other words, as long as we score in the top three, Uncle Yuan will change the 12-minute run to the YOYO test?" Ou Chuliang summed it up.

"I don't know." Wang Junsheng looked like a chicken thief, "Chairman Yuan said that we can only explain to the fans if we enter the top three, and he also said that he will try his best to use the YOYO test." As for the result, he's just the president of the Football Association, and he doesn't have that much power, don't you say? ”

Ou Chuliang rolled his eyes, this matter can be handled by Vice Chairman Xu and Wang Junsheng, who is a full chairman, what else can't be done?

But these leaders are all monkeys, and they never talk about death. If Ou Chuliang wants to dig deeper, it will be too rude and too substandard.

Speaking of which, Ou Chuliang nodded decisively: "No problem, Uncle Wang, don't worry, I will definitely win Saudi Arabia in the game the day after tomorrow!" ”

"Roar, roar, then I will congratulate our young footballers!" Hearing Ou Chuliang's promise, Wang Junsheng immediately pressed the stop button. He took a handkerchief out of his pocket and wiped it back and forth on his forehead. "Alas, I'm old, and I can't compare with you young people. Okay, I'll go back and rest first, you should also pay attention, don't forget to conserve your strength. ”

"Okay Uncle Wang, then I won't send you!"

Seeing Wang Junsheng leaving, Ou Chuliang decisively doubled his speed and sped up on the treadmill.

He hadn't taken two steps when a high-end water bottle was placed in front of him by a slender hand.

Ou Chuliang turned his head to see that a tall foreign beauty wearing a sports vest and blond hair was looking at him with a smile.

"Hey! I'm Alyssa, do you mind if I run here? ”

"Uh... NO...”

“Mind！ I mind！ ”

Without waiting for Ou Chuliang to answer, Wu Chengying, who was sweating and drumming out of his body, appeared behind Alyssa at any time, pointed to the treadmill, and then pointed to himself: "Mine!"

“OH！！！” Alyssa screamed, and then realized her gaffe, and hurriedly covered her chest, looking between Ou Chuliang and Wu Chengying.

“OH！ OH？ OH！ SORRY，SORRY，SORRY！！！ After several apologies in a row, Alyssa hurriedly picked up the water bottle and took the initiative to retreat to the treadmill on the other side.

Seeing Alyssa leave "acquaintedly", Wu Chengying's unchanged face showed a rare pride. Glancing at the display speed of Ou Chuliang's treadmill, he pressed it a few times in a row, and adjusted his speed to the same.

Seeing this black man taking steps beside him, Ou Chuliang sighed: "Xiao Hei, I'll discuss something with you." Can we speak well in the future and not let others misunderstand, right? ”

Wu Chengying: "( ̄_, ̄)"
