Chapter Twenty-Six: To My 25-Year-Old Self
"To me at 25?"
Ou Chuliang was stunned for a moment, he suddenly thought back to his previous life, the 25-year-old young man.
Ou Chuliang, born in Guangdong Sports School.
When he was a teenager, he showed a very high level of physical fitness, not only excellent jumping power, but also physical flexibility and quick reactions.
He was successively selected for the Guangdong Youth Team, the Guangdong Provincial Team, and the Guangdong Hongyuan Club, and soon became an excellent goalkeeper in his own right.
He was called into the national team for the first time in 91 and was already in the main position of the national team in 93.
And that year, Ou Chuliang was exactly 25 years old.
The 25-year-old self seems to be standing in front of him, but he is so far away. In the blink of an eye, many years have passed.
After Zhu Guanghu finished assigning the essay topic, there was a "rustling" sound of writing in the classroom.
What fifteen or sixteen kid hasn't dreamed of his twenty-five-year-old self?
At the age of fantasy, you should fantasize about your future.
Ou Chuliang swept around and found that he was the only one who didn't write.
How to write?
Perhaps no one here knows better than Ou Chuliang what his twenty-five-year-old self will look like.
"Xiaoou, why didn't you write, did you have no pen?"
Among the people in the room, Zhu Guanghu was most concerned about Ou Chuliang.
Ou Chuliang not only showed great talent in the team, but also surpassed his peers in terms of technology and ideology. More importantly, Ou Chuliang has an excellent ability to deal with people, and he has a mature psychology that surpasses his peers. If such a player continues to develop, the future is limitless.
But as soon as he considered Ou Chuliang's position, Zhu Guanghu's heart ached faintly.
Goalkeeper, this is a special position!
At present, the main goalkeepers of the national football team are Xu Tao and Jiang Jin, not to mention that the two are in their prime, and their skills are also mature and stable.
According to Zhu Guanghu's thoughts, when Ou Chuliang grew up, he would just take over the position of the two of them.
But how can this kind of thing be said accurately by a Jianlibao coach?
With so many young talents in the country, coupled with the complicated domestic relations, once the position of goalkeeper is decided, it will basically not change.
The goalkeeper bench is not like the substitute in other positions, and he has a good chance to play after playing 50 or 60 minutes in the starter.
The goalkeeper substitute must first learn to endure loneliness, and this is also the idea that Zhu Guanghu instilled the most in Li Jian in his usual training.
In Jianlibao, Zhu Guanghu can guarantee Ou Chuliang's starting position. But what about the national team? Will Ou Chuliang still be willing to be lonely?
Looking at Zhu Guanghu's earnest eyes, Ou Chuliang whispered: "Director Zhu, I want to think about it carefully." ”
"Okay, then you have to hurry, everyone else is going to finish writing."
As soon as the words fell, Zhang Xiaorui was the first to stand up and shouted: "Director Zhu, I'm done writing!" ”
"Oh? Finished writing so quickly? Come, show it to me. ”
Zhu Guanghu walked quickly in front of Zhang Xiaorui, in fact, Zhang Xiaorui was still very appreciated by Zhu Guanghu in addition to his somewhat perverse temperament.
On Zhang Xiaorui's desk, there were only a few crooked words in the middle of the huge A4 paper. It was too difficult for them to ask these fifteen or sixteen half-sized children to write neatly on a blank piece of paper.
"When I'm 25 years old, I'm going to be the No. 1 striker in China. And lead the Chinese team out of Asia and to the world! ”
After Zhu Guanghu finished reading, a satisfied expression appeared on his face.
"Well, well written, very well written, ambitious!"
"Of course! I will definitely become the number one striker in China! Zhang Xiaorui wiped his nose and said proudly.
Zhang Xiaorui's "composition" inspired many people present, and even Ou Chuliang leaned down and wrote it stroke by stroke.
The Asian Games in '94, the Asian Cup in '96, the top ten in '97, and the World Cup in '02 are all permanent pains in Ou Chu's conscience.
It's just that he has always shown himself as an idol and has never shown it in front of outsiders.
In the seven-year career of the main national goal from 93 to 99, although Ou Chuliang was known as "the best goalkeeper in China" in later generations, it seemed that something was missing for him.
What's missing?
Ou Chuliang's mind was very confused, and he couldn't remember it a little.
But this does not prevent him from planning well, how to make his career more complete and perfect in this life according to the experience of the previous life. As the ballpoint pen fell, Ou Chuliang began to write step by step.
“... When I'm 25 years old, I'm going to be a ball king like Lee Hye Tang! Become the main force of Guangdong Hongyuan team and carry forward our football hometown in Meixian County! ”
Chen Wenkui spoke Mandarin that he was not familiar with, and he was the first to stand up and recite the sermon.
Then there are Zhang Ran, Sui Dongliang, Zhang Yonghai, Yang Xiaoping, Zheng Yi, these players are all in the words, revealing their love and expectations for the parent team.
There are also some people such as Zhang Xiaorui, Li Jinyu, Sun Zhi, Hao Wei and others, who also feel that with their own strength, it should not be a big problem to become the main force of the national team.
Even Li Jinyu said that if he has the opportunity in the future, he must go to Europe to play football and see the world.
After another while, Li Tie, who was beside Ou Chuliang, also stood up.
Cabbage Taro shook his hair, picked up the white paper in front of him and read aloud, "... When I was 25 years old, I had to help Liaoning win a championship in the A-League. ”
“... He was selected for the national youth and participated in a World Youth Championship. ”
“... He will also be selected for the National Olympics to help the Chinese team participate in the Olympic Games. ”
“... And to become the main player of the Chinese team to help the national team enter the 2002 World Cup. ”
“... Realize the beautiful expectation of our Chinese football to break out of Asia and go to the world. ”
After Li Tie spoke, he won unanimous applause from the young players present. Because he not only wrote about his expectations for his parent team, but also covered some of the more important international events, such as the World Youth Championships and the Olympic Games. Finally, he also mentioned the original intention of Jianlibao to build the team, that is, the 02 World Cup in Japan and South Korea.
Ten years of sharpening a sword, Li Tie's content is almost the common wish of these teenagers.
In fact, Ou Chuliang's writing is similar to Li Tie's speech, but Ou Chuliang has a more detailed plan, such as which year to return to China, which year to participate, which year to be selected for the national team, and so on.
Just as Ou Chuliang was about to continue to add, he also raised his hand, signaling that he had finished writing.
Under Zhu Guanghu's nod, he stood up and read aloud.
"When I was 25 years old, I must have become the main striker of the Chinese team..."
The previous paragraph is similar to everyone else, there is nothing different. But when the deliberations came to an end, the room was full of people.
“... I want to lead the Chinese team to win the 2002 World Cup! ”
"World Cup winner?"
When they heard this word, everyone was stunned. A second later, the classroom erupted in laughter.
"Hahahahaha! Deliberations, you're really interesting. ”
"Hahaha, World Cup winner? Girl, how dare you think about it! ”
"Kill me, discuss that you haven't woken up yet, right?"
Watching his teammates around him make undisguised fun of himself, a little face was flushed. I want to have a seizure, but I don't know where to start.
After a while, he could only puff out his cheeks and say angrily: "Hmph! Wait and see, I will definitely lead the Chinese team to win the World Cup in the future! ”
"Hahahaha! Then I'll wait! Hahahaha! ”
The stubbornness of the deliberation drew another burst of laughter.
In the classroom, not only did his teammates burst into laughter, but even Zhu Guanghu was a little dumbfounded.
He really hopes that the Chinese team can break out of Asia and go to the world as soon as possible, but what about after going to the world?
He never thought about it.
But today, he heard these expectations from the mouth of the counselor, and he just felt that the idea of the deliberation was too immature and too fantastical.
I didn't even learn how to walk, so I thought about running?
"Alright, let's sit down." Zhu Guanghu did not give a positive answer to the discussion like he did to others. Instead, he waved his hand and signaled everyone to silence and stop laughing.
He stomped his foot, and when he saw that there was no one to support him, he sat down angrily.
"Xiao Ou, you are the only one left in the team. You're the captain, so let's wrap it up. ”
After calming down, Zhu Guanghu said to Ou Chuliang.
"Xiao Ou, Xiao Ou?"
In Zhu Guanghu's questioning, Ou Chuliang suddenly woke up from his trance.
He stood up and looked at the 22 pairs of eager eyes around him, and he was a little stunned.
After living a lifetime, do you still have to go on step by step?
It wasn't until he heard the wish to discuss that Ou Chuliang's mind exploded like a thunderbolt from the sky.
He finally knows what he lacks, he still lacks a champion!
Looking at the A4 paper in front of him, Ou Chuliang suddenly grabbed it. In the astonished eyes of the people around him, he was torn to pieces in three or two.
"Xiao Ou, you..."
Zhu Guanghu's face was surprised, he had never seen Ou Chuliang so "out of shape".
"Director Zhu, I want to say a word to my 25-year-old self."
"Oh? What words? ”
Ou Chuliang took a deep breath and said loudly: "Ou Chuliang, you must do your best to help the Chinese team and win the World Cup!" ”
