After playing the match with the French team, the national team's European training is over, and the team will be disbanded after returning to Beijing. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 But Chu Zhongtian asked the coaching staff for leave, because he was going to go directly to the United States from France, and his agent Merry called him and told him that he had negotiated an image endorsement contract with the American magazine and asked him to sign a contract.

Zhu Suishen was a little reluctant, but he had no reason to stay with Chu Zhongtian, because the team's mission was over, even if he followed the team back, it would be disbanded on the spot, and the meeting that should have been held in France had already been completed. He could only let Chu Zhongtian leave.

So Chu Zhongtian, under the envy of many people, left the team and took a plane from Paris to New York, USA.

After Chu Zhongtian left, someone in the national team complained: "It doesn't feel like he is playing in the national team, but like he came to the national team for vacation......"

"It looks like he's the biggest star of the team...... Coming and going. ”

"People are ......," someone muttered.

A group of people were speechless when they thought of Chu Zhongtian's experience before and after the match against the French team.

Some of them realized that Chu Zhongtian had actually gone beyond the category of Chinese football. While some of them were still struggling to see if they could go abroad to play football, Chu Zhongtian had already stepped into the world...... Chu Zhongtian didn't know what his teammates on the national team thought of him, and he didn't care about that. After arriving in New York, under Merry's arrangement, Chu Zhongtian met with the person in charge of the magazine, and after the two sides signed a contract, Chu Zhongtian took some photos for the magazine that needed to be used in print advertising. Then he flew directly to Los Angeles, and there was an internationally renowned men's underwear brand that wanted to sign a contract with Chu Zhongtian, and he went to meet this time.

Chu Zhongtian found that he still had a bit of a business talent - unlike other players, he left all non-football matters to his agent, he was very interested in business operations, and wanted to get involved in many things.

The negotiations with this men's underwear brand went smoothly, and the two sides decided to sign a three-year contract, and Chu Zhongtian could earn 700,000 euros a year.

After looking at the advertising photos taken by Chu Zhongtian for them, the company was very satisfied - judging from the appearance, Chu Zhongtian's place was indeed very large. In fact, when they published these advertisements, there was even a debate about the fact that the media suspected that an Oriental could have such a spectacular thing through a computer...... Chu Zhongtian smiled at this and said nothing.

That's for another time.

After talking to this men's underwear, Chu Zhongtian went to meet Emily. He originally wanted to invite Emily's mother, but Emily told Chu Zhongtian that her mother couldn't come because of something. In fact, Miranda was still angry about Chu Zhongtian being able to win the favor of his daughter, and she didn't want to see him.

This is exactly what Chu Zhongtian intended - he wanted to enjoy the two-person world with Emily alone.

Emily told Chu that she had also benefited from her romance with him — a casual clothing brand in China approached her and wanted to talk to her about signing an endorsement contract.

This summer, it seems that the young couple is destined to make a fortune.

But for them, whose careers are still on the rise, all this is just the beginning.

Chu Zhongtian, who returned from the United States, went directly to Beijing, where he filmed a TV commercial for Haier Group. He only returned to his home in Chengdu last night.

After flying around the earth, he finally returned home, but it was not a few days before he set out again.

The World Cup has already started in such a busy day for him. His good friend Franck Franck Ribery has finally made the 23-man squad for France's World Cup, and his more energetic performance has managed to squeeze out Giuli who won the Champions League with Barcelona this season.

While Chu Zhongtian was happy for Ribery, he was also a little envious of him. Being able to participate in the World Cup is the dream of countless professional players, but they can only sit in front of the TV and watch the game.

He remembered what Ribery had said to himself half-jokingly: "If only you were French, we will be selected for the national team together and continue to work together!" ”

It's a pity that he's not interested in changing his nationality.

He heard from Mr. Merry that he was about to negotiate a new contract with the Metz club, and because he had made it clear that he wanted to stay, it was easier for the two sides to negotiate. The situation is different for Franck Franck Ribery, who has never said on any occasion that he would definitely stay in Metz next season, and his excellent performances last season have also attracted the attention of many teams, including foreign giants.

Eighteen goals and fifteen assists. That's what Ribery said last season. Last season, Metz scored only 51 goals in total, and Ribery was involved in 64 per cent of those goals alone, and Metz was able to perform so well last season because of his performance. At the end of the season, Franck Franck Ribery was voted Ligue 1 Player of the Season.

Therefore, since before the start of the World Cup, there have been no transfer rumors about Ribery, one moment that Lyon wants to buy him, and the other that Manchester United have offered him 13.5 million euros. Bayern Munich also got involved, with Germany's "football emperor" Beckenbauer claiming that Frank. Franck Franck Ribery is the player Bayern Munich need.

Before the start of the World Cup, Metz club president Molinari talked about several important players in the team in an interview, and he promised Metz fans that he would keep Chu Zhongtian, but for Ribery, his words were ambiguous: "Of course we want to keep him, but it depends on his personal wishes......" Later, he talked about Ribery's offer, and it seems that he does not intend to keep Ribery, but looking at the price he put for Ribery, it does not look like he really wants to sell Ribery: "...... I've heard about Manchester United's offer, and I'm going to say a player like Frank is worth at least 40 million! ”

This is completely a lion's mouth, although Ribery performed well last season, but his value is definitely not as scary as 40 million. As a result, many people think that Molinari is a way to scare away clubs that are interested in Ribery.

The England team also called in a young player Theo Walcott, which caused a lot of hype in the media in England and even the world, believing that a rising star in English football is rising.

In comparison, Ribery's international career has been much more low-key.

However, everyone calmly analyzed it and found that Walcott's World Cup journey was likely to be a tragedy, and Ribery wanted to play for France in the World Cup.

The argument in favor of these people is that in the last two months of last season, the head coach of the French national team, Domenech, went to watch Metz play in those two months, especially the two French Cup matches, one against Lyon and one against Paris Saint-Germain Ribery. In fact, he has long been impressed by the charm of this winger who is as fast as the wind and has high morale.

In France, Ribery has become the new favorite of French fans because of his outstanding performance and never-give-up fighting spirit. Many people were not surprised that he was selected for the national team. French fans trust him even more than Thierry Henry and Zinedine Zidane.

Franck Ribery's name appeared in France's starting line-up for their opening game against Switzerland on 12 June. For Chu Zhongtian, he was not surprised at all.

Thanks to him, Ribery also has a group of fans in China, and they are happy that Ribery can start.

This World Cup is destined to be an unforgettable tournament for Ribery.

He started all three games in the group stage, did not miss a single game, and the playing time is gradually increasing.

Two chances were wasted against Togo, but he continued to start against Spain and scored his first World Cup goal past Spanish goalkeeper Iker Casillas.

Seeing that Ribery had scored, Chu Zhongtian clenched his fists in front of the TV and cheered for him. It's just that after the cheers are over, there is only endless envy and jealousy left...... This kind of high-level arena, he really wants to step on it...... Later, when Chu Zhongtian's favorite Brazil and France met, he was immediately full of contradictions. Do you support the Brazilian team that you have always loved, or do you support the French team that has its own idol Zidane and friend Franck Ribery? He wants Brazil to win the title, but he doesn't want Zidane's last tournament to end there.

He had to calmly analyze the current situation and then admit that the advantage of the French team was a little bigger than that of the Brazilian team...... Although the Brazilian team is very eye-catching as the defending champions, and there are five superstars known as the "magic phalanx", Ronaldinho, Kaka, Robinho and Adriano, but as a whole, this Brazilian team has never been formed. On the contrary, the heart of the French team is Zinedine Zidane, and even Thierry Henry and Patrick Vieira can't take it, and at Euro 2004 they thought they could succeed Zidane as the new French core, but in the end they found it too stupid. In addition to Zinedine Zidane, Thierry Henry and Patrick Vieira have focused on supporting the king of France, and there are also newcomers like Franck Franck Ribery. Although the whole team is a little older, for a major tournament like the World Cup, it is more experience-oriented, so it is not too much of a problem.

With such an analysis, the Brazilian team is more than lucky...... Facts also prove Chu Zhongtian's analysis. Brazil lost 1-0 to France, with Zidane setting up Thierry Henry's only goal of the game from a free-kick. That conceded goal made Chu Zhongtian scold more than once, because Robert. Carlos actually crouched down to tie his shoes in such an important free-kick defence, resulting in Henry being completely unmarked and easily cushioning the ball into the empty net.

He really wondered if the Brazilian team was also gambling...... It's a weird throw.

The Brazilian team was eliminated, and Chu Zhongtian's expectations for the World Cup suddenly decreased. But he still has to watch, he has to watch Zidane's game. Zidane's game is really one game less, and it is also a good opportunity for him to learn. He wants to see how a player like Zidane can dominate the whole team in the game.

He found that Zidane's advice to himself was really right, in a game like the World Cup, it is impossible for no one to come up to the core of the team to press closely, and if you face this kind of pressing by one person or even several people, as a core player with the ball, what should you do?

Every time you pass the football out for the first time? It's not necessarily a good idea, and your teammates may not always be able to run to the next receiving position in time, and they may not always be able to pass the ball at the right time. And if the opponent also uses such a defense against his teammates, wouldn't it be easy to break the ball and counterattack?

There is only one solution - to use the skills of the feet to control the football from being snatched, this is only the first step, but also to use the superior skills to get rid of the enemy and create the right time and space for yourself.

Zidane's technique is very good, it is probably not an exaggeration to say that he is the first person in today's football, look at how comfortable he is playing against the Brazilian team known for his foot skills, as if he is strolling in the court, a Marseille turn shook off two Brazilian players, so anxious that the players of the Brazilian team can only stand in place with open hands and yell, I don't know whether they are complaining that their teammates are too lax in defense, or angry that they were thrown away so easily.

Chu Zhongtian, who saw this scene, was deeply impressed.

It's really a person outside of people, and there is a sky outside of the sky. Don't think that because you have performed well in Metz, you are already invincible, there are more and more powerful opponents in the world outside Ligue 1.

But don't worry too much, next season Metz will participate in the League Cup, although in terms of level and influence, it is not as good as the Champions League, but there Chu Zhongtian can still meet many strong opponents in other leagues, those opponents are different from the French League opponents who have lost their freshness, all of them are strange and unknown. They will bring Chu Zhongtian a new vision and impact.

※※※Chu Zhongtian was brought in China on June 23, then said goodbye to his parents and flew back to France. The team's pre-season training camp has begun. Although the World Cup is still going on, there are not many internationals in Metz, so the impact is not deep. Fernandes will also be hoping to take advantage of the opportunity to get ahead of other league rivals in their pre-season build-up.

The first thing Chu Zhongtian did when he returned to Metz was to re-sign a new contract with Mace.

The contract is four years, and after two years of service, they have the right to jump to other teams in the non-French league, and the club cannot use the means of wanton price increase to prevent Chu Zhongtian's transfer and departure. These conditions are no different from the previous contract, and the changes in the new contract are mainly in terms of bonuses and salaries. The weekly salary is 30,000 euros, the goal will be increased to 2,000 euros, and the assist award will be increased to 800 euros.

When Chu Zhongtian signed the contract, the Metz club held a press conference to announce that Chu Zhongtian had successfully renewed his contract and would remain in Metz next season. The fans who had been waiting outside the club let out a cheer of victory - regardless of Ribery, they had at least left a vital player for the team.

After the signing was completed, Chu Zhongtian came out to meet the fans, he held up his Metz jersey, thanked the fans, and won the loud cheers of the fans.

After that, Chu Zhongtian met his head coach Jean. Fernandez.

As soon as they met, Fernandez did not congratulate Chu Zhongtian on staying in Mace, but stared at his body carefully, and then he also motioned for Chu Zhongtian to turn around a few times. The more I look at it, the tighter my brow becomes.

Then he said to Chu Zhongtian: "You have gained a little fat, Chu." ”

Chu Zhongtian hadn't weighed himself, and he didn't know if he had really gained weight. But he knew in his heart that he had not exercised physically in the past month and a half.

"Is being famous and losing your way? Or is love overwhelming you, Chu? ”

It's not a nice thing to say, but the person who said it was Jean. Fernandez is tantamount to Chu Zhongtian's reinvention benefactor in football, so Chu Zhongtian does not dare to have any dissatisfaction.

"I know I can't say anything about your private life, everyone has his way of life. But don't forget, you are a professional footballer, who gave you the life you have now, not me, but football. Football is your profession and I want you to be more dedicated to it. ”

Chu Zhongtian, who had been in full swing all summer, lowered his head and quietly accepted the head coach's criticism. At first he was quite surprised, he didn't expect the manager to see him for the first time to criticize, but now he is calm.

"Your first task in pre-season training is to lose weight, give me back your previous weight."

Chu Zhongtian nodded honestly: "Yes, sir." ”

"Now let's talk about one more thing...... Clear. Do you feel like your technology is already in shape? ”

Chu Zhongtian raised his head and looked at his head coach, to be honest, he had this idea because he felt that his improvement this season was not as obvious as before. He thought that his technical characteristics had been completely finalized, and the next step was to continue to accumulate experience and improve his awareness.

"Uh...... That's right, I have this thought, sir. ”

"But you're not even twenty-three years old, how can a player have a fixed skill at this age?" Fernandez shook his head. "You have to keep improving, especially in the heat of the game. Also, the final win against Paris Saint-Germain made us overlook a lot of things, and now that the excitement has passed, it's time to go back and look at your problems. In the first half of the final against PSG, you were pressed by PSG and you didn't do anything, and I don't want to see that happen again in the new season. Do you know what the solution is? ”

Chu Zhongtian thought of Zidane's advice to himself: "Improve personal skills? ”

Fernandez nodded. It looks like this kid hasn't gotten carried away yet.

"Yes, I want you to continue to improve your foot technique in the new season. To be honest, your technique is still a bit rough in my opinion. Rough technique doesn't guarantee you can keep the ball with precision, and as the heart of Metz's midfield, you'll be faced with more difficult defence in the new season, with plenty of stronger opponents than Ligue 1 in the UEFA Cup. If you don't improve, you won't go further. ”

Chu Zhongtian nodded again and again when he heard this.

"So the second task is to try to improve my skills. It's a relatively long job, Chu. If you want to be bigger, you have to work hard to do that. ”

"I see, sir."

Fernandez snorted, then smiled, and then stretched out his hand to Chu Zhongtian: "Okay, welcome back, Chu!" ”
