In June, the summer enthusiasm begins to rage, with the occasional breeze blowing slowly, accompanied by an endless heat wave.

Lutai Football School, about 30 people are gathered on a good piece of turf, everyone is gathered together, it can be said that it is three layers inside and three layers outside. At this time, if you are far away, you will not notice anything, but when you get closer, you will notice that there is something strange, these people's attention is concentrated in one place, to be precise, a person lying on the ground attracts their attention. What's going on? Turn the clock back a little, and just a few minutes ago, there was a little "little accident" here.

This is a very important intra-team match of the youth football team of Lutai Football School, because there are rumors that the first-team coach is going to choose the players, so everyone is extra hard during the game.

An active elf on the pitch is as dazzling as ever, with deft feet, sharp breaks, and precise passing...... His performance can be said to be very good, and he will be a "perfect addition" to the first team that lacks major generals for various reasons, and his perfect performance has seen the people on the field nod again and again.

There is already news in the team that he will definitely enter the first team this time, after all, the strength has been clearly placed there, with his talent he should have played on a bigger stage a long time ago, at his age there is already a football school big brother into the national team to play for the country, this is a few years ago.

It's really time for this young man to break into the first team, maybe for a player from a working family who is too bloated in the first team squad to be needed for the time being? ……

Fate is so weird, this teenager is destined to miss the first team again this time. Now he is lying unconscious on this green field, he is injured, very serious.

The green grass should exude the rare fragrance and scorching smell of summer at this time, but for a seriously injured and unconscious person, the world is so far away, everything is nothing......

The shrill whistle sounded, and the sparse people quickly approached the scene of the incident like sharks smelling blood, and the tall and straight poplars on the side of the court were clapping desperately as if they were laughing at what had just happened. What is lacking in this modern environment surrounded by greenery is an ambulance that does not know when it will arrive, and the ambulance of the football school, which is so far away from the city, is blocked on the only road leading to it - National Highway 206.

At this time, there was a group of parents who came all the way to look at their children at the gate of the solemn football school, but fortunately they did not see such a bloody scene - if their son was seriously injured in football, how much should parents regret and blame themselves? Why do you want to send your own children to suffer this sin? You can't let your child play football anymore, and learning is the right way!

A year later, in the middle of summer, the national team won the gold medal table at the Olympics, which sounded like very exciting news. But life is extremely gloomy for Ni Tu, who has reached the age of 18. At the age of 8, he left his hometown in Chang'an and came to Yuandu, nearly 10 years of time and sweat, all squandered on the youth training field of Lutai Football School, and he was about to rely on his performance to get the call of the first team, on behalf of his parent team Lutai team, and continue to dominate China's top field, but just when the dream was about to come true, a team match rewrote everything.

The young man who had been fiercely suppressed on the bench by himself finally extinguished the last shred of his own sanity in the confrontation, and when Ni Tu took him with a beautiful Marseille slalom dribble, and was about to continue to advance with the ball, there was a piercing pain in his leg, and then he passed out. After Ni Tu passed him, the young man quickly turned around with an unbelievable reaction speed, and kicked his feet towards Ni Tu from the side like an off-string arrow......

A shrill whistle creaked, and Ni Tu's right calf was broken.

The scene was chaotic that day, and the team doctor's first-aid kit was missing because he had a little drink while eating out or for some reason. I couldn't count on it, and the ambulance that had been waiting for a long time arrived here because it was stuck in traffic for more than two hours, and after everyone carried the injured to the car, the ambulance didn't know how long it took to get to the hospital......

The Lutai Football School is quite strict, and the result after learning about the situation is that the young man who caused the accident was directly persuaded to retire by the Lutai team, but it was difficult to recover from the water, and the incident had already happened irreparably, and the injured Ni Tu was in the hospital for nearly a year. During Ni Tu's recuperation, the club leaders came to see him several times, and said some words of encouragement such as recuperating from injuries and standing up strongly, although the good words were not very useful, but the incidental refund of the tuition fees for the last 3 years more or less showed the team's care, of course, the treatment costs must be all-inclusive for the wealthy Lutai team.

During that time, he had nightmares every day, and after the injury was healed, he became particularly afraid of physical contact when he returned to the team for training and playing, Ni Tu was originally a thin child, and now when he plays football, even the slightest contact will make him feel extremely uncomfortable, and he can't play the characteristics that he should have, and it is difficult to play football with peace of mind, Ni Tu's performance is naturally plummeting, and in the end, he left the club under the hints of the football school and the strict requirements of his family. Soccer schools are sometimes not the temples and ivory towers that many people think of, but at some point they are monsters that eat people's dreams.

Dropping out of school was Ni Tu's own choice as a "coward", and he had already "given up" when he was just injured. During his year in the hospital bed, he picked up a pen and began to study, and thankfully he seemed to be very talented in this area. Usually the football school has been arranging courses to study, and his grades are very good. The football school was very humane at this time, and he was admitted to Luzhong University of Science and Technology, a university that established the industrialized town of Qidu, majoring in civil engineering, which is also very consistent with his name.

Standing at the gate of the university surrounded by green trees, the dazzling sun is hanging high overhead, the vehicles on the road in front of the door come and go, and groups of people walk by, and the laughter and laughter all penetrate into the ears of Li Nitu.

At this time, Ni Tu is 1.72 meters tall, and there is a bronze square face buried under the short hair inch, a light blue shirt on his upper body, a pair of jeans on his legs, and two duffel bags that make him feel a little thin and slightly bulky like an overloaded car.

A wave of heat hit him, woke him up from his distraction, calmed down, and then walked into the campus with his bag.

When he lost his mind, he felt as if he had a dream, which was a very long dream, and one dream was 10 years.

……

On the banks of the Tejo River in Lisbon in the early morning, the breeze brings the smell of the sea, the sun climbs over the walls of the residents' houses, and the hustle and bustle of the streets.

A yellow-skinned young man in sportswear jogged along the road for exercise, with a height of 1.80 meters and a handsome and sunny appearance, people liked it very much at first glance. The young man's name is Wu Xiaomu, when he was 7 years old, because his parents were sent to Portugal by the company, he also followed, and it has been 10 years now.

Having shown great talent for football since childhood, he has been in a state of happiness lately. It's not that he's in love or anything, this handsome young man has already soaked in several girls at a young age, and there are foreign girls and yellow-skinned people who have no motherland. In the face of a group of fan girls, this kind of thing seems to have lost his interest. Now his so-called happiness is that he was promoted from the Lisbon youth team to the first team of Sporting Lisbon, originally because of nationality reasons made him difficult to sign a contract to play football, his mother strongly supported Xiaomu to change his nationality (this seems to be what many people have been pursuing in reality), the enlightened father did not give in to this matter for some reason, and resolutely disagreed with his son's change of nationality. But now that everything is easy in the face of potential and strength, the club has high hopes for him, and the man who is seen as the new Cristiano Ronaldo will not be expected by everyone? The new season is about to begin, and he is also very much looking forward to it, vowing to be the brightest of the stars.

The year 2008 is worth remembering for the vast majority of Chinese people, from the bitter cold of the Chinese New Year to the Tubo incident, from the Sichuan earthquake to the world events that have passed more than 100 years - the Olympic Games were held for the first time in China, a mysterious eastern country in the eyes of Westerners. This year, we have experienced too much, there are bitterness, there is grief, there is joy, it seems that everyone's attention has been attracted by the above "big events", no one realizes that the little-known little people are walking on the big stage of history, time flies, maybe the long history of Chinese sports will leave a lot of stories that leave a lot of color.

A story about football began.
