Chapter 006: Love House and Wu
Aachen is located in the Federal Republic of Germany in North Rhine. The state of West**, very close to the German border, is probably less than a centimeter away from Belgium on the map.
At the same time, Aachen is also quite close to the Netherlands.
Proximity often means easy communication, and in fact, Aachen is also considered the "most cosmopolitan city" in Germany, with many locals living in Germany, working in the Netherlands and playing in Belgium.
Aachen is also a well-known spa resort, an important railway junction, and economically dominated by the food industry, with Zhuo Cunzhi's father running a restaurant and his mother working in a candy store.
Of course, when it comes to regions in Germany, it should be said that anywhere in Europe, football has to be talked about.
Football is not just a sport, it's a belief!
The famous Scottish football coach Shankly once said: "I am deeply disappointed that some people equate football with life and death." I dare assure you that football is far beyond life and death. ”
There are many people who misinterpret the meaning of this sentence now, but the meaning of this sentence by coach Shankly is probably that his own football is higher than his own life, and it has nothing to do with others.
From this sentence, it can be seen that football has a place in the hearts of Europeans.
There are also people who regard football as a modern war, and winning the World Cup is a favorable means to prove the strongest in the world!
Of course, it is not all unity within a country, especially two football clubs in the same region, it is even more likely to become mortal enemies.
After all, football clubs are also a business, and if you want to not lose money, you need the support of fans, and the existence of two football clubs in a region can often fight for fans.
This is also the origin of the football derby.
In the city of Aachen, football is also indispensable.
Alemannia Aachen, founded on December 16, 1900 by 18 high school students, was promoted to the Bundesliga in the 1967-1968 season and finished second in the league the following season, behind Bayern!
It's a pity that after another year, Aachen only got one away game in the whole season and returned to the Bundesliga.
Historically, Aachen has reached the final of the German Cup twice in 1953 and 1965, but unfortunately failed to win the championship.
In the 100 years since it was founded, it has not won a championship, and if you are not a fan of Aachen, you generally don't know about Aachen.
Neutral fans pay attention to, in addition to their own natal clubs, often only those championship teams, because all players pursue and are sought after by all fans, often only the champion!
There is no such thing as glory in the world of football!
Aachen has never been truly glorified.
In reality, however, Aachen is already a very well-developed football club.
Aachen is now in the Bundesliga, there are no more than 20 teams in the Bundesliga, and the same is true for the Bundesliga teams, that is, in Germany, a big football country, there will be no more than 40 clubs better than Aachen.
This may seem like a bad ranking, but at least for Zhuo Cunzhi, it's already a goal worth mentioning.
In Jonas's eyes, however, it was an unrealistic goal, at least for now......
"Zhuo, don't be nervous later." Getting out of the car, Jonas instructed as he led the way.
"I see." Zhuo Cunzhi looked at Jonas's trembling legs delicately.
"Believe in yourself, Zhuo, if you behave well, you can stay here, you can, you can." Jonas was giving himself an air.
Zhuo Cunzhi nodded, the expression on his face was very subtle.
Jonas, who had been staring at his thighs, didn't notice, and he still had words in his mouth, not knowing what he was saying.
Jonas walked and walked, and suddenly found that he couldn't walk, and when he looked back, it was Zhuo Cunzhi pulling him.
"Zhuo, what's the matter?"
Zhuo Cunzhi pointed ahead.
Jonas looked at it and it turned out that he had arrived at his destination.
"Is it here so soon?" Jonas's face was full of surprise, and Zhuo Cunzhi only glanced at him subtly.
Jonas noticed Zhuo Cunzhi's expression, his face turned red on the spot, and he was about to say something, when he suddenly heard a voice containing surprise.
"Hui, is that you, Hui, aren't you going back to the national team?"
The two turned around when they heard the sound and saw an old man trotting over.
I saw that he had a traditional German beard, and his ends were curled up in two circles. (Note)
Zhuo Cunzhi was a little confused, he didn't know the old man in front of him.
On the other side, the old man who walked in slowly also slowed down, and after taking a closer look, he asked tentatively, "Are you Hui?" ”
Without waiting for Zhuo Cunzhi to answer, the old man himself shook his head, "No, Hui is not a hairstyle like yours." ”
Zhuo Cunzhi was a little speechless when he heard this, and he only felt that the old man was a little old and dizzy.
After all, seeing him so close, he must have a good relationship with the "Hui" in his mouth.
However, even so, it is necessary to rely on the hairstyle to recognize people......
The first time you see several people of different skin colors, you will indeed feel that several people look similar, but after a long time, you can still tell them by looking at them more.
At least, if Zhuo Cunzhi looks at the Germans now, there will basically be no misidentification.
Zhuo Cunzhi here was a little embarrassed because of being mistaken, but the old man didn't care.
"Who are you, friends with Hui? He's not here now. ”
"No, no, we...... He was a player who came for a tryout. ”
Halfway through speaking, Jonas pushed Zhuo Cunzhi out.
Zhuo Cunzhi nodded, "Are you the doorman here?" ”
"I'm Rudy, the housekeeper here, and you're here for a tryout? Hope you can be as good as Hui! ”
As the old man Rudy spoke, he enthusiastically pulled Zhuo Cunzhi and walked towards the gate of Aachen.
"Aachen is a great place, if you can stay here, you will love it, just like our Hui!"
Zhuo Cunzhi nodded, but he was a little curious in his heart.
The old man in front of him has always been an old member of this football club, and the "Hui" in his mouth should be a player here.
Germans are proud, especially when it comes to football.
Without a good enough performance, it is simply impossible to convince and even love the Germans.
Not to mention that like now, Aiwu and Wudi treat him, a yellow-skinned stranger, even if this old man is amiable, he will not make such a move easily.
It's a great place to be.
Zhuo Cunzhi sighed in his heart.
To be so loved by the fans, as a player there is nothing else to ask for.
Zhuo Cunzhi looked at Aachen's team emblem, and secretly made up his mind in his heart-
I will definitely stay here!
