After leaving the Mahada Onda training base, Viviano curiously asked Gao Zheng what was the matter with the kid who didn't ask him for an autograph or take a photo with him.

"Oh, he's just trying to talk to me." Gao Zheng didn't tell Viviano the truth because he didn't think it was necessary.

When he chatted with Dong Jin just now, he spoke Chinese, which Viviano couldn't understand.

Viviano didn't ask any further, after all, he was just a fan who wanted to come up and express his reverence to Gao Zheng, and he hadn't seen it before.

Gao Zheng didn't tell Viviano the truth because it was very troublesome to explain.

He had to explain why Dong Jin cared so much about nationality.

Although Lin Yuan said that Dong Jin is not Chinese, Gao Zheng does not recognize it, and he feels that although Dong Jin is a Spanish national, he is indeed a Chinese in terms of cultural identity.

Because maybe in this world, only Chinese cares so much about their identity......

In this part of Europe, there has been a confusion of blood since before the Middle Ages, you are my father, I am your son, the king of this country is also the king of another country, and the royal families of two different countries are still related.

To put it mildly, this part of Europe is a place where a bunch of big mongrels live.

Because of this, Europeans do not care much about nationality.

That's why Western countries have the term multinationality, that is, a person can be an Italian or a Spaniard, but also a German, a Frenchman, a Dutchman, an Englishman, a Brazilian, an Argentine, a Mexican, a Canadian, an American, and ...... Wait, they don't think there's anything wrong with it at all.

The people who live in the United States now, counting back generations, may be Italians......

This also has a lot to do with the colonization of various parts of Europe in those years.

So the people here don't have a deep identity with nationality, if you tell Viviano that Dong Jin has a headache about his nationality, Viviano will definitely feel strange, and then Gao Zheng will explain to Viviano from the perspective of Chinese cultural traditions.

Gao Zheng didn't want to do this, it didn't make sense to waste saliva.

In short, it is precisely because Dong Jin cares so much about nationality and identity that he is so confused.

But Gao Zheng still felt that he didn't need to care so much.

He has experienced first-hand how brutal professional football is.

Fourteen or fifteen-year-old children who have just entered the echelon for training are now thinking about the national team, and it is still unknown whether they can play professional football alive.

Along the way, his teammates have changed wave after wave, from China to Italy, and there is no shortage of talented and talented players.

But in the end?

So far, he is the only one who has been kicked out of his teammates in China.

This is not to say that he is the only one who has become famous, but he is the only one who has played in the professional league.

The group of teammates in the AC Milan academy is better than that in China, but that is also because Italy's player development system is more mature than China's.

But even so, not many people have really established themselves in the top flight.

He is the only one who has become the main core of each team.

In terms of youth training alone, many people think that Barcelona's La Masia Academy is awesome, because it has cultivated Barcelona's golden generation of players such as Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets, Pique, etc.

But in fact, Real Madrid's youth training is no worse than Barcelona's, and it may even be better. Because Real Madrid's academy Lafabrica has produced more professional players.

Yes, professional players.

Maybe these players have names like Messi, Xavi, and Iniesta, but they are all professional players who can play in their respective professional teams.

Although it is difficult for them to play in the superstar-studded Real Madrid first team, they have provided a lot of quality seedlings for the rest of La Liga.

So if you can produce enough professional players, it means that the youth level of this club is very good.

This shows how difficult it is to become a professional footballer.

Now Dong Jin and Lin Yuan may be considered some talent among their peers, otherwise it would be impossible to enter the training base of Atletico Madrid for training.

But whether they can eventually become professionals and become professionals – if not in the first team at Atletico Madrid, but at other clubs – is still too much to tell.

Luck and strength go hand in hand.

The outstanding strength suffers from frequent injuries and may end up being unpopular.

Although he was not seriously injured, as his body developed, his strength gradually became mediocre, and in the end, it was difficult to become a professional player.

Gao Zheng, who knows how difficult the road of professional football is, feels that the two children are thinking too far and too naïve.

Are internationals that good?

It's like a poor bastard who starts crying, if one day he wins five million, how can he not let others know, and he is troubled by something that hasn't happened at all, isn't this a mediocrity?

What Spanish nationality Chinese nationality, wait until the day when you can really be selected as an international player.

※※※

Lin Yuan saw Dong Jin on the training ground again.

Last time, he hit Dong Jin hard with a few words, but Dong Jin, who appeared in front of him this time, was in good spirits, and he didn't seem to be worried about which country he was from.

He stood in front of Lin Yuan, held his head high and said, "You guys came here to study, right?" I heard that after three years, I don't know if I can stay! Hum! Wait until you can stay here and say anything about defeating me! ”

This sentence really pierced Lin Yuan's heart.

They came here for a three-year contract.

And whether you can stay here after three years really depends on the performance of these three years. It's not that if you come here, you will be able to continue playing at Atletico Madrid in the future. There is a high probability that the scene he fantasized about in Calderón will not happen.

The first batch of Hopeful seniors who came before them are now only nine people who can continue to stay at the Mahada Onda training base...... And at the beginning, it was a mighty team of 30 people like them......

Lin Yuan naturally had to worry that it would be difficult for him to stay after three years.

Doesn't that mean waking up and finding that the past three years have been a dream?

Who can stand this?

Lin Yuan waited for the arrogant Dong Jin: "You wait and see!" You'll be gone, and I'll still be here! ”

Dong Jin snorted: "Who wouldn't say big words?" ”

"Of course I'll prove it to you. Not just these three years, but three years after that! I'm going to be here! Lin Yuan said loudly.

Lin Yuan, who is fourteen years old this year, will be twenty years old in six years. Long adulthood. If he can really stay at Atletico Madrid, he will play in Atletico Madrid's B team, or even in the first team!

"We'll see!"

Dong Jin was not to be outdone.

"Okay, we'll see!"

The two teenagers competed like this.

Until this gamble is decided, I'm afraid no one will give up easily.

After all, it is a shame to surrender and admit defeat in advance......
