Chapter 2: The Return to America (Part II)
On the night of the league title, AtlΓ©tico Madrid held a big celebration.
All the players and coaches of Atletico Madrid paraded through the streets of Madrid in an open bus, surrounded by countless Atletico Madrid fans.
They followed the team through the streets of the city, and finally at Poseidon Square, the players and fans celebrated wildly, singing and dancing.
After the parade was over, it was almost midnight.
However, the team still did not announce its disbandment, and the excited players had a simple meeting arranged by the club, and the participants were all team staff. Everyone forgets their duties for a while, everyone forgets their identity, and it will be summed up in one word from beginning to end - drink!
The club's top management drank high, the coaches also drank high, the players also drank high, and even Qin Shou, who has rarely touched alcoholic beverages, made a rare exception because of excitement and excitement.
Anyway, he didn't know how he got back to his residence, only that when he woke up, he was already lying in the bedroom of his residence.
In the following days, Qin Shou handled some of his personal affairs in Spain, participated in some sports talk shows or something. Because of the early exit on several other fronts, the task of Atletico Madrid this season has come to an end, and the team has also announced its disbandment.
Because this is the year of the European Championship, Atletico Madrid has a number of current internationals from various European countries, so after the team was disbanded, the national team players quickly left Madrid and went to the meeting place of their respective national teams.
Qin Shou has not received an invitation from the Chinese national team so far, so naturally he can't talk about any national team competition tasks. His original plan was to return to China directly after the season, but a call from his agent Anderson forced him to change his schedule.
Today, he is one of the hottest players in all of Europe. As his fame grew, so did his business and advertising endorsements, and he had to stay in Madrid for the time being, taking care of his personal affairs while waiting for Anderson's arrival.
In the time of waiting. Qin Shou also took the time to fly to London, England, for the purpose of meeting his little girlfriend. However, with Chris and Julia's supervision anytime and anywhere, Qin Shou and Jennifer are naturally not too affectionate. After staying in London for two days, Qin Shou returned to Madrid.
Three days later, Anderson finally rushed back to Madrid from Africa, and after taking Qin Shou to attend several business events in Spain, the two boarded a plane to the United States.
Back in New Jersey, Qin Shou didn't notify anyone, the purpose was to surprise his friends. It was only because Qin Shou suddenly appeared in the Violet Bar. Papastto and the others looked sluggish and incredulous.
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"If I wasn't welcome, I thought I could wait until the evening to come back. Hah, what do you think of this proposal? β
Looking at the three of them who were stunned, Qin Shou deliberately said with a straight face, but the joy of seeing his friend still made him unable to hold back his expression, and a bright smile soon appeared on his face.
"Old Carl, you're drinking in the morning again? It's not a good habit, and it's said that you started correcting it ten years ago. Now it seems that the effect is not great! β
"Hey. Jona, the little girl seems to have become a lot prettier. Is it because of someone's nourishment? Ha ha! β
"Papasto, why are you stunned? When you see the boss coming, why don't you hurry over and say hello! It's only been less than a year, how do you feel like you're being stupid again? β
Look at the familiar scene, the familiar bar. With familiar decorations and familiar faces, the smile on Qin Shou's face became brighter and brighter.
"I'm back, guys!"
Qin Shou shouted excitedly, and hugged the nearest old Carl first.
Old Carl was still a little stunned. was made unstable by Qin Shou's sudden attack, and the wine glass fell to the ground with a "pop~", becoming a pile of glass slag.
"Qin? Qin! Old Carl finally came to his senses, "Damn bastard! When you came back, you caused me to break a wine glass, and it's all money...... Ah, my money ......"
"Old bastard, you're still as stingy as ever!"
Qin Shou laughed, but hugged harder.
Old Carl's feigned anger couldn't be pretended, and he was also in a very happy mood and hugged Qin Shou hard.
After letting go, Qin Shou turned his head to look at Qiao Na again.
"Hey, pretty Jona, come on, let the senior hug one!"
Qin Shou opened his arms with a smile and wanted to hug him, but Qiao Na smiled "giggle~" and turned sideways to dodge.
"Senior, you can't be like that guy, you can't do anything but talk about it. Hmph, I'm sure Papastto and you are good friends now, it's all like that......" Joanna smiled and grimaced, "Lewd...... Trifling! β
"......" Qin Shou was speechless, so he had to touch his nose in embarrassment.
At this time, Papasto had already rushed over with a cheer and hugged Qin Shou hard.
"Boss, it's really you, you're really back!" Papasto held Qin Shou and kept jumping, and his hands kept patting Qin Shou's back.
"Ahem...... Damn it...... You bastard......" Qin Shou was so photographed that he almost didn't roll his eyes, "Don't you just want to hug your little girlfriend, don't think I don't know, you're taking the opportunity to take revenge." Boy, you wait for me. β
Papasto, who was debunked for careful thinking, was not annoyed, and cheekily continued: "Where, I really miss you. Boss, I want to kill you. β
As he spoke, there was another series of slams.
"......" Qin Shou was slapped again and coughed, rolled his eyes, and said speechlessly, "You want me to die!" You damn bastard! β
β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦β¦
"By the way, Qin, why did you come back suddenly? Is it all over in Europe? Why don't you go back to your country to see? β
After the fight, Old Carl and Papastto sat down with Qin Shou to chat, while Jona went to pour water for a few people.
To be honest, Qin Shou's sudden appearance really startled these people. After all, Qin Shou is now playing for a European team, and even if the season is over, he should return to China instead of coming to the United States. His studies here have been suspended, and he doesn't have to travel all the way back to take his year-end exams.
"I miss you, so why don't you come back and see?" Qin Shou responded with a smile.
However, seeing the disbelieving expressions of old Carl and Papasto, he coughed lightly twice and asked Papastto in a puzzled tone.
"You really don't know?"
Papasto was confused, thought about it, and seemed to really don't know anything, so he nodded suspiciously.
Qin Shou knew that it seemed that John did not tell Papastto that he was going back to the United States to participate in business activities.
This time, Qin Shou came to the United States again for two reasons. One is that the New York Red Bulls and the Stevenson University varsity team will have a strategic cooperation, and this varsity team will be used as a sub-base of the Red Bull Club, which is equivalent to the reserve team, commonly known as the academy. Stevenson's varsity team will have the power to recruit promising soccer talent on behalf of the Red Bull Club, while the New York Red Bulls will often bring their youth team to train and play here.
After all, Stevenson's football stadium is very professional, and all the hardware facilities are no worse than professional stadiums. The New York Red Bulls are also very happy to be able to give their reserve squad access to a stadium and facilities that are only available to first-team players.
Of course, Qin Shou also accounted for a large part of this.
After all, Qin Shou used to be a student at Stevenson University and a member of the school team, and the New York Red Bulls are also Qin Shou's "parent team" for his debut.
Qin Shou accepted the invitation of Stevenson University and the New York Red Bull Club as an invited guest to participate in the official inauguration ceremony of the New York Red Bull Youth Training Camp.
And deciding to accept this invitation, Qin Shou and Anderson both have their own considerations. Qin Shou was invited to take up a position in this sub-base, and the Red Bull and Stevenson University teams both said that if there is an opportunity in the future, Qin Shou can recommend young Chinese players to train here, which can be regarded as some cooperation with Chinese football.
And Anderson's consideration is very simple, Qin Shou walked out of this city, his base camp is here, and now Qin Shou has become the champion player of the top European league, so he naturally wants to take advantage of this shareholder wind to promote his fame even more. Football in the United States is not very strong, but its business is extremely developed, and if it can develop its commercial value here, then for Qin Shou, in terms of value alone, it will be a big cut.
The second reason is because Anderson helped Qin Shou take an advertising endorsement contract, which is a world-famous "Nike" sports company. Some of the details have not yet been negotiated, and they need to be interviewed in person by Qin Shou.
Originally, the "Nike" company wanted to send the head of the European region to negotiate with Qin Shou, but they thought of coming to the United States to be a guest at Stevenson University, so Qin Shou and Anderson simply came to Nike's headquarters.
If the negotiation goes well, being able to cooperate with an international sporting goods company like Nike, Qin Shou's reputation and worth will be greatly improved in a short period of time.
When Qin Shou told the two of them the purpose of his trip back to the United States, both Carl Sr. and Papasto were extremely excited.
Although there are not many things, the time spent is not short, at least in the next week, it is impossible for Qin Shou to leave the United States.
This allows them to get together a little longer.
"Ha, tonight, I'm going to ask all my varsity teammates to come to Violet, everyone hasn't seen you for a long time, let's have a drink tonight!"
Papasto cheered.
