Chapter Seventy-Eight: On the Attractiveness of the Second Culture
A group of teammates are laughing.
Zhen Shaolong was depressed to death, and the baby-faced girl kept the agreement, thinking that he would like his pants, so he risked being taken away by the security guards and gave such a secret gift.
But......
Can't I give a gift privately? Can't you get an outer package? Why just hand it over?
Zhen Shaolong felt the warmth of the strip of cloth in his hand, thought of a possibility, and couldn't help but pull the corners of his mouth, and his heart beat straight with 'touch, touch'--
It can't be taken off temporarily, right?
Possibly!
Zhen Shaolong will never admit that he likes to bring body temperature to women's pants as gifts, and when he got on the bus, he pointed the finger at Kreuzer.
If it weren't for Kreuzer, the others wouldn't have paid attention to what the strip of cloth was.
"The next time I see Natalie, I'll take the initiative to talk about it and clarify...... It was given to you by a female fan, just for me to pass it on. ”
"I'll also tell her that you like this kind of gift."
"I heard you're together again? Congratulations in advance, it doesn't matter to me if you break up again......"
Kreuzer was still laughing, and when he heard Zhen Shaolong's words, he closed his mouth in shock, "You can't do this." ”
"Why not?" Zhen Shaolong said, "In the past, you took it from me...... I also took the initiative to show it to others. Natalie will believe it. ”
"You're not a friend enough."
"You didn't have enough friends first." Zhen Shaolong said depressedly.
Kreuzer was immediately stunned, there were pleading cries in his words, he knew Natalie too well, the grumpy little girlfriend, he immediately said to break up if he didn't agree with him, and it was not easy to persuade him to come back, "I mean...... Sorry, Zhen, I shouldn't have done that, sorry, so sorry! ”
Along the way, Kreuzer tried his best to apologize, and by the way, he signed a number of unequal treaties such as inviting a few big meals, helping with luggage in away games, and coming to train on time in the morning, and Zhen Shaolong reluctantly forgave him.
When he returned home, Zhen Shaolong looked at his pants, and he was really a little helpless.
Throw away? It's a pity.
"Forget it! Think of it as a treasure! ”
Zhen Shaolong washed his trousers, hung them on the balcony hanger, and after they dried, he put them in the 'treasure house'.

The next day, the media reported in detail on the quarterfinals of the German Cup.
St. Pauli's defeat of Offenbach's kickers and the successful promotion of the German Cup semi-finals have also become one of the topics of the report, and Zhen Shaolong, who performed well, naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Zhen Shaolong can't be considered the best player, he only scored a goal.
But there are a lot of topics on him.
For example, Zhen Shaolong is less than 19 years old, and there are very few players under the age of 20 in German football, which also means that there is a lot of room for growth in the future.
For example, Zhen Shaolong's hobby of asking female fans for kisses.
The latter is key.
It's not a big deal for a player to have lace news outside the field, and asking for a kiss from a female fan inside the stadium is extremely rare for football development for hundreds of years.
In several games in a row, Zhen Shaolong did that, and he behaved very crazy, which was enough to cause a lot of controversy--
"That way of praying works!"
"Look at his stats! If you don't know, you think it was a top star who went to St. Pauli! ”
"But it's not good to do this, ask the female fan for a kiss, he must be a single Wang ......"
"Who would dare to do that with a girlfriend?"
“……”
The media also reported the news of the kiss before, but it did not cause much waves, because it was difficult to attract attention in the German second division, and when St. Pauli reached the semi-finals of the German Cup, the gossip of the kiss quickly became popular.
Some people argue for Zhen Shaolong, and they believe that the responsibility lies with the St. Pauli Club--
"It's clearly St. Pauli's style!"
"St. Pauli likes to do things that attract fans off the pitch!"
"Probably the head coach and the chairman's idea!"
"It should be ......"
In the continuous gossip reports, a small number of media outlets talked about the news that 'Zhen Shaolong's agent said that he would not continue similar practices', which was automatically ignored by the public.
————
In the morning, Zhen Shaolong watched a few news articles and felt that the thoughts of the media were also very far-reaching, and he could even think of it, so that the St. Pauli Club would carry the black pot.
He immediately opened his mind and discovered a big object of the pot - the St. Pauli Club.
There are too many fans who support St. Pauli Club, according to incomplete statistics, there are more than 10 million fans, all of whom are supporters of St. Pauli, but the extreme point is that the fans who do not support St. Pauli are almost all 'St. Pauli black'.
Summary.
Either supporters or oppositionists.
"St. Pauli's reputation is so bad." Zhen Shaolong couldn't figure it out, his time in the club was not short, and he didn't find any difference from other clubs, the only thing was the unofficial Skull Pirate Flag logo.
That might be understood as 'Form 2'.
"Could it be that 'Form 2' can also attract fans?"
"Or are Germans too comfortable to live and are more inclined to appreciate the 'secondary' culture?"
"'Secondary 2' is a disease, but it can't stand the pursuit of many people ......"
Zhen Shaolong pondered the philosophical question of 'Form 2', came to the stadium to train with Kreuzer, and by the way, he also asked the doubts in his heart, "Do you know why St. Pauli is so popular?" ”
"Historical reasons, right?"
Born in the area around Hamburg, Kreuzer knew something about it: "Before the reunification of Germany, St. Pauli was a representative of the ultra-left political fanaticism and attracted a lot of ......"
Zhen Shaolong had a little headache when he heard this, he interrupted Kreuzer's words, and asked rhetorically, "Isn't it because of 'Middle 2'?" ”
"What is Form 2?"
Zhen Shaolong, with the pride of a great literary master, popularized the connotation of 'secondary culture' to Kreuzer, who is a primary school student.
Halfway through Kruzer raised objections.
Zhen Shaolong immediately persuaded people with virtue, and patiently persuaded with words such as 'Natalie, pants', and finally Kreuzer nodded with tears in his eyes and agreed with the statement that 'St. Pauli attracts fans because of secondary two'.

When the two returned to the locker room, they found that it was a mess.
My teammates are all there.
"What's going on?" Zhen Shaolong asked, and saw Bergman standing in the middle.
He was stunned.
Kreuzer was also stunned.
The rest of the teammates were stunned, but no one really laughed out loud, except for a loud Jean, "Sir, why are you dressed like this?" ”
Jean asked what everyone had to say.
Bergman was wearing a close-fitting warm shirt and pants, but he was wearing a tight-fitting one-piece male tracksuit, and he suddenly looked like a superman, and a closer look made people laugh.
Bergman explained with a dark face, "It was Mr. Ritman's idea. Recently, the popularity of the club has not risen quickly, and when we reached the semi-finals of the German Cup, and today is an open training session, we will attract the media with training clothes, and when the time comes, maybe all over Germany and even Europe will report on it. ”
"Originally, I suggested that Mr. Rietman wear it, but both Rietman and Rehtig voted for me......"
Bergman said that there was a fearless spirit that sacrificed his temperance for the club's popularity.
After listening to Bergman's explanation, his teammates thought it was funny, but the players who have been playing for St. Pauli for a long time are a little used to it, and every once in a while, the club will find a way to do some weird things to attract the attention of the media and fans.
This is one of the ways St. Pauli maintains its popularity.
Zhen Shaolong couldn't help but look at Kreuzer and pass on a "really middle-two" look.
Kreuzer gave a thumbs up.
Bergman continued, "You can do the same, I still have a few sets of clothes here. He said and moved a few times, "It's very relaxing, it's easier to exercise, and it feels good......
What a ghost!
Everyone immediately turned their heads and did whatever they had to do, for fear of being caught by Bergman's eyes, and it would be a shame to wear it like this for public training.
The only one is Zhen Shaolong.
At the moment when Bergman finished speaking, Zhen Shaolong also wanted to turn his head with the others, but immediately received a system task message, "Hint: A new system task has been triggered."
The host is required to wear a tight-fitting one-piece sportswear for the morning training.
Rewards: Stamina Index increased by 1 point, and Appearance Evaluation increased by 1 point. ”
Zhen Shaolong's expression suddenly froze.
Bergman was looking.
Zhen Shaolong forced a grin, gave Bergman a thumbs up, and said without knowing whether to cry or laugh, "Ahem...... I also think it's a good outfit. ”
"I've decided!"
"I'm going to wear it like that! ...... with Mr. Go do your morning workout! ”
