Football in Argentina is about pure technology. The pursuit of control of the scene, the pursuit of offensive pleasure, this is also the reason why many people like Argentine football.

But this is also an important reason for the gradual decline of Argentine football. In today's soccer game, the physical advantage of the athlete is irreparable by the technique, and the Argentine movement is flexible.

No matter how skillful the cooperation is, six or seven players in the front court with a few feet may not be able to withstand a hard burst of body weight acceleration or a heavy artillery.

So the Argentine football process is very exciting, but the result is always disappointing. Walking around the city of Rosario, football fields can be seen everywhere in the city, and the boys playing on the street basically carry a small football at their feet, this football culture cultivated from a young age has ensured the longevity of Argentine football.

And on the side of an open football field, Lin Mu stopped. A group of teenagers about 10 years old on the court are practicing, today they are practicing against each other, Lin Mu noticed that a short teenager on the field is particularly prominent, his footwork is skillful, and he can always break through the opponent's defense again and again, in contrast, the other teenagers on the field have become his foil.

"He's playing great, isn't he?" An old man who was leaning against the railing on the side of the court with Lin Mu to watch the game never took his eyes off the court when he spoke, so that Lin Mu was not sure whether he was talking to himself or himself.

The official language in Argentina is Spanish, but the old man speaks English fluently.

"That kid is still younger than the other kids on the field, and it's really rare for him to have such a performance at his age!" Lin Mu also imitated the old man's appearance, looking at the court when he spoke, if the old man was just talking to himself, then he would not be too embarrassed.

"You see he's a little short. But he's not young, in fact, he's the oldest of the kids, he's 15 years old today! The old man turned his head, only to realize that it was a dark-haired, yellow-skinned Asian who answered him.

He has the impression that football in Asia is developing very slowly, and few Asians who visit Argentina are interested in football.

"15 years old? I thought he was actually a little younger! "Well, the boy's height looks like it's about 1.4 meters, which is among his peers.

Such a height is indeed easy to cause misunderstanding by others.

"It's a shame that if he could have been a little taller, it wouldn't have been a problem to play in the professional league

"The little guy was praised by Newell's Old Boys when he was 7 years old, but at the age of 10 he was diagnosed with a developmental hormone deficiency. And this will hinder the growth of his bones, which is the main reason why he can't grow tall! The old man said with regret.

"Do you know this kid?". Lin Mu asked curiously.

"I'm their neighbour and I often come here to watch him play when I have free time." The old man nodded.

"Developmental hormone deficiencies should be curable, right?" Only out of sympathy, Lin Mu asked casually.

"Of course, but it would require a lot of money, but his family's financial conditions are limited, and it is difficult to support the full cost of treatment!" The old man sighed softly.

"If only he could be seen by the professional team, his skills are completely fine! As long as he enters the professional team, his medical expenses can be solved! ”

"What's the child's name?

"Leo Messi!" Leo Messi? Lin Mu's eyes widened, although he had hidden such a thought in his mind just now, he was still extremely shocked to be told that the short boy on the field was the brightest star on the football field in the future.

"Is he famous?" The old man looked at Lin Mu's unusually expression, and asked suspiciously. Although he wanted to tell the old man that the little boy he was optimistic about would become the pride of all Argentines, Lin Mu kept telling himself in his heart that Messi was still just a child.

His reaction just now had already aroused the old man's suspicions, so he could only find an excuse to prevaricate this matter.

"Because I have a very good friend in the United States, also named Leo Messi, and the two have exactly the same name." It is not surprising that Chinese names appear with the same name and surname.

But the English name is due to the special way it is constructed. It is rare to encounter the exact same name and letters, so the old man also believed Lin Mu's statement.

"Is his home nearby?" After learning that this teenager was the future football star Messi, Lin Mu's mind came alive.

A bold idea popped up out of nowhere. In his memory, Messi was favored by Barcelona's football world this year, only 15 years old and 1.4 meters tall, only Messi went to Barcelona to try.

Without hesitation, the Catalans registered him with the club and arranged for him to be treated at the medical department.

But since he met the talented player before Barcelona, is there anything he can do to make such a chance encounter even more interesting?

"What are you asking about this?" The old man's doubts that had just been pressed back on his face returned, and from the beginning, he felt that Lin Mu was a little strange.

"You're a scout for a football club?" The old man then thought of a possibility.

"It's a pity that my job doesn't have much to do with football, but I think this teenager named Messi is very good and maybe I can help him".

Lin Mu shrugged, he is not a scout, but he is an out-and-out scout, and discovering stars on the football field is actually the same as discovering movie stars.

For Lin Mu, who is good at investment, Messi's potential stock is the most valuable for investment at this time.

Giving charcoal in the snow is far more able to gain the trust of the other party than icing on the cake.

"Are you sure you can help that child?" The old man still has some doubts, giving help to others for no reason, this kind of thing is not in everyone, it can happen in the guide, is it really that he met such a enthusiastic person today?

"If I can get to know him and his parents. I need to talk to them before I can find out if I can provide him with the necessary help! Lin Mu suddenly found that he wanted to

It's really not easy to be a good person for no reason.

"Messi, come to Grandpa Jim!" While the two were talking, the confrontation on the court had ended, and the teenagers began to make some passes and catches and offensive and defensive contacts on the court in twos and threes.

At this time, the practice was relatively relaxed, and the old man shouted at the court, and Little Messi ran obediently towards the side of the court where the two were located.

"Grandpa Jim, what's wrong?" Although after the tense and fierce confrontation just now, Messi Jr. did not look like his other teammates were physically exhausted, and it seemed that the physical exertion just now was just a piece of cake for him.

At this time, Messi did not speak English, so he was talking to the old man named Jim next to Lin Mu in Spanish.

"Messi, this gentleman next to me thinks you play very well, so he wants to get to know you and your parents".

Jim said, pointing to the woods.

"Is he a scout for a club? Little Messi couldn't wait to ask.

"I don't think so, but he's interested in you. He said it can help heal the disease in you." Jim explained.

"Are you telling the truth?" Lin Mu is not a scout for the football club, which makes little Messi feel very disappointed, but when he heard that Lin Mu can help him heal his physical illness, Little Messi's eyes lit up again.

Although he couldn't understand the conversation between the two, Lin Mu still guessed the content of their conversation from the change in the expression on Messi's face.

"This is" Jim was about to introduce the woods to little Messi, but he suddenly realized. I don't seem to know the name of the forest tree yet.

"My name is fine, you can call me Lin Mu!" Lin Mu saw Jim's embarrassment. Before he could ask.

Lin Mu first introduced himself.

"This is Mr. Lin" Jim smiled at Lin Mu slightly apologetically, and then prepared to reintroduce little Messi, but his words were generally stuck again.

The previous time was because he didn't know the name of Lin Mu, but this time it was because he knew Lin Mu's name that he couldn't help but think of someone.

Jim glanced at Lin Mu very seriously, and then gently covered his mouth that was growing wide because of surprise,

"My God, you're the chairman of Paramount Pictures." Lin Mu didn't wear sunglasses when he came out today, and in his opinion, his appearance in Argentina should not attract too much attention, but he didn't expect that he was so famous in Argentina.

Although his identity was recognized, he did not put on a show,

"You can call me by my name!"

"Lin Sheng, it's an honor to meet you here, are you visiting Argentina? Jim was excited, but forgot about business.

"Argentina is really beautiful, but the art of football in Argentina is even more intoxicating, can Mr. Jim introduce me to the little star standing in front of us now? Jim should be a fan of Lin Mu's attention. Because after recognizing Lin Mu, he put Little Messi aside, and Lin Mu on the side had to remind him very kindly.

"Messi, this is Mr. Lin, the chairman of Paramount, Hollywood's largest film company!" Jim then introduced the woods to little Messi.

He doesn't know as much about Lin Mu as little Messi, but he knows that Paramount Hollywood has a very powerful film company, and many of the movies he has seen are shot by this company.

He knows that a team club usually has a president. That's the most effective guy on the team.

In Messi's understanding, the coach of the team is a unique figure in the team, but even the coach has to listen to the chairman.

Although Paramount was not a football club, the chairman at that time was supposed to be a very powerful position.

"Hello, Mr. Leo Messi". Lin Mu kindly stretched out his right hand to Messi.

"Hello, sir!" Under Jim's turn, Messi knew that it was Lin Mu greeting him, and the two shook hands.

Lin Mu's friendly attitude made Messi very excited.

"Sir, would you like to help me heal?" Jim relayed his words into English to Lin Mu, who then asked him a question: "Do you tell me your goal of playing?" ”

"I want to lift the trophy for Argentina in the World Cup like Maradona". Messi puffed up his chest and replied very seriously.

"This is the dream of all Argentine teenagers of Messi's age!" Jim added deliberately.

"Very well, if it doesn't delay your training. I want to go and meet your parents now." Lin Mu nodded, he knew that for many Argentine teenagers with the same dream, that kind of goal was an unattainable dream, but he knew that Messi might really be able to do it in the future.

The training was not over, Messi asked the coach for a leave, and due to the language barrier, Jim was also invited to accompany him, and of course he was personally willing to act as an interpreter for Lin Mu.

Messi's mother happened to be out at this time, so it was his father who received Lin Mu at Messi's house.

"As a father, I know best that Messi's illness stems from malnutrition. Argentina is rich in the best beef in the world and has the best milk in the world, but that doesn't belong to us. Messi grew up eating potatoes and carrots, and went to play football after drinking those soups without oil foam, but he is more sensible than anyone else! Messi's father, Jorge, recalled that when Messi, who was only 10 years old, suffered from growth hormone deficiency and Confucianism, he couldn't hide his sadness.

"I remember, and will never forget, the day I got my diagnosis. It was very cold, we were on the street at the time, and Messi didn't have any expression, he was extraordinarily calm. I know he knows better than anyone that there is no ability at home for him to treat Messi has been the best player on Newell's old buddies junior team by the age of 10. He was still only 1.2 meters, according to the doctor's examination. He was born with dwarfism and had stopped growing by the age of 9. Messi's dwarfism is not incurable, but growth hormone injections cost $2 a month, and Newell's old buddy on the parent team was unwilling to pay for a child with an uncertain future.

"The Argentine football club is not suitable for your son's upbringing, he should go to Europe, to play in the Europa League, which represents the highest level of commercial football, so that he can show his value!" Lin Mu suggested.

"In fact, we now hope most to get a sum of money and then cure Messi's illness!" After Messi got sick, the family saved money to supplement Messi's nutrition, and what Jorge hopes most now is to restore Messi's health.
