Liu Zhongtao, 17 years old, from Meizhou, China, is a professional football player who plays as a right-back. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

When Liu Zhongtao was 16 years old, his football talent was noticed by a Chinese league club, that is, the local team Meizhou Hakka, and he signed to become a professional player.

Liu Zhongtao likes football, and naturally admires Wang Shuai, the first person in domestic football. He knows Wang Shuai's deeds very well, and at the age of 19, he entered Youzhou Institute of Technology, which was still in Huayi at the time, and won the Huayi championship that year and was promoted to Huajia.

In the second year, he was loaned to Youzhou Trust, won the half-way top scorer of the Chinese Super League, and after returning to Youzhou Institute of Technology in the second half of the year, he helped the team rush directly from the eleventh place to the second place, and the Institute of Technology was promoted again.

In the following two years, Wang Shuai continued his unstoppable momentum, leading the team to win the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League for consecutive years, and won the FA Cup once.

After coming to England, Wang Shuai ushered in a second spring for Aston Villa, which had been weak for many years. He won the Championship and League Cup in his first year, and the Premier League, FA Cup and Europa League in the second year, winning the third crown of the season. And when Wang Shuai won these honors, he had already begun to become the head coach of the team.

Liu Zhongtao is self-aware, he knows that he will never be able to achieve Wang Shuai's achievements, but he also has a dream, that is, to become a hero of a team like Wang Shuai.

So when he came to Meizhou Hakka and found that he really had a good football talent, Liu Zhongtao felt that the opportunity to realize his dream had come.

It's a pity that although the club also values him, the strength of Meizhou Hakka is really not very good, and this year it only achieved the fourteenth place in the Chinese League. Although it is still far from the relegation circle, it is still far from the league championship and even the promotion qualification zone.

The cruel reality was like a basin of cold water poured on Liu Zhongtao's head, which also made him sober up a lot. He found that compared to Wang Shuai, he himself was at best a small soldier who relied on his personal ability to charge into battle, while Wang Shuai was a general who could lead the entire army to victory.

So, Liu Zhongtao calmed down, he knew that even if he had good talent, with his current strength, it would be tantamount to a fool's dream to lead a team to turn the tide.

It was also at this time that a great piece of good news came to Liu Zhongtao's head.

Idol Wang Shuai, who wanted to recruit a number of young players to train in the UK, was chosen.

But just as the so-called blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, just when Liu Zhongtao was looking forward to living abroad, the Meizhou Hakka Club, which he had always regarded as the bole of his life, refused Wang Shuai's request.

The sky fell.

This was Liu Zhongtao's only feeling at that time.

In Liu Zhongtao's view, if he can go to the UK to train with Wang Shuai, this will inevitably become the biggest turning point in his football career.

And now, everything is out of play.

But it was at this time that he received a phone call, and the other party was his idol Wang Shuai.

Liu Zhongtao clearly remembered that Wang Shuai only said three sentences.

The first sentence: Is it Liu Zhongtao?

Sentence 2: Do you want to come to Aston Villa?

Sentence 3: Welcome to Vera.

As for Liu Zhongtao himself, he only said two words throughout the whole process. The first word is "yes" and the second word is "think". Afterwards, Liu Zhongtao felt that these were the two most correct words he said in his life.

Not long after the phone hung up, Liu Zhongtao received a message that the payment was made by Aston Villa Football Club, and the general content of the message was to let him directly terminate the contract with Meizhou Hakka, and Villa Club would help him pay liquidated damages.

The next thing was much simpler, under the "obscenity" of Wang Shuai and the Vera club, Meizhou Hakka had to release people, and Liu Zhongtao also got on a plane to England a few days later.

……

After coming to Vera, Liu Zhongtao was not excited for two days before he realized that something was wrong.

Of the nine Chinese players who came together, his strength was the worst.

And then he also heard rumors: Wang Shuai originally wanted to recruit players from Youzhou Institute of Technology, but the players from the Institute of Technology couldn't leave school, so Wang Shuai found another "head".

Although everyone didn't say it explicitly, Liu Zhongtao knew that this "additive" was himself.

Then thinking about it, Liu Zhongtao also understood that this rumor is not necessarily unreasonable, after all, he is only from a Chinese league team, how can he be compared to these "heavenly pride" from the Chinese Super League.

But Liu Zhongtao didn't retreat, anyway, he had already come, whether it was "adding a head" or not, he had no reason to go back, because it was Wang Shuai who told him personally: Vera welcomes you.

As a result, Liu Zhongtao gradually became a "madman", and he understood the principle that stupid birds fly first.

When I first arrived at Villa, several young players had a good relationship. Regardless of whether the above rumor came from them or not, they are all seventeen or eighteen-year-old children, and how much gap can they have between them. So in normal times, they often call Liu Zhongtao to hang out with them.

It's just that Liu Zhongtao always has only one answer to their invitation: to practice.

Gradually, the friends didn't greet Liu Zhongtao when they went out to play, and Liu Zhongtao completely became a "lonely person".

But he doesn't care, in Liu Zhongtao's heart, only improving his strength is the most important thing, so as not to live up to Wang Shuai's "welcome" to him.

……

At the end of August, in the office of the head coach of Villa.

"Wang, this is this month's youth team training report." Hooks, the head coach of the youth team, handed over a report to Wang Shuai.

For the youth team, Wang Shuai only cares about the nine Chinese players now, and as he turned the report to the last page, Wang Shuai was stunned.

Then Wang Shuai immediately entered the system and checked the player information of the youth team, and then he asked quietly: "This Liu Zhongtao, growing up fast?" ”

"Well, that's right. However, he trains almost twice as much as the others, and he has been working on several other players while they are resting. ”

"That's ...... Let's go, let's see! ”

Wang Shuai said and took the lead out of the office.

……

Villa have five fixtures in August, with three league games in addition to the Community Shield and UEFA Super Cup. Villa have won all three league games, including a 2-1 win over Manchester United.

And now after seeing Liu Zhongtao's strength soar, Wang Shuai is even more happy. As a result, on the training ground of the Villa youth team, Wang Shuai, who rarely came over, appeared.

Liu Zhongtao was practicing, he didn't notice that Wang Shuai was coming, and he didn't notice that there was only one person left on the training ground. Of course, maybe it's not that he didn't notice, but that he was used to practicing alone.

"He practices like this every day?" Wang Shuai turned to Hooks and asked.

"There is a half-day off on Sunday, and every day the rest of the time." Hooks replied truthfully.

Hearing Hooks' answer, Wang Shuai took out his mobile phone and dialed a call to go out.

"Brother Jane, I'm Wang Shuai...... This season's talent clause, give it to Liu Zhongtao, the young player I pulled into the youth team. ”
