The whole area is well equipped with highway lines, and the roundabouts and flat arcs of viaducts span the entire city. Head east on the Inner Ring Road, exit the exit and turn back onto the main road to the west to reach the heart of Boa Vista.

Philippe Govia turned off the car's navigation system, then pressed the accelerator and continued along City Road 10. It wasn't until the milky white building of the "Silpa Press, Broadcasting and Publication Administration" came into view that the speed of the car gradually slowed down.

As he passed the Silpa building, Govia suddenly pulled over to the side of the road.

"Hey, would you like to visit the team first?" Govia asked the boys behind him. Then he rolled down the window, pointed to the right, and said, "Enter this road and you will go directly to the training ground." ”

Everyone else was stunned and didn't speak, only Chen Jinwu responded: "Mr. Govia, we have to go back to the dormitory to clean up first, can we come back tomorrow?" ”

Then Xiao Pan also said: "Yes, they have been on the plane for dozens of hours, so let's send them back to rest first." ”

"No problem." Govia restarted the car, turned his head and boasted to Chen Jinwu: "Son, your Portuguese is not bad!" ”

Chen Jinwu smiled and said thank you.

The dormitory is a very simple two-storey small brick building, no different from domestic buildings, except for the red roof tiles with European flavor. There are several protruding arches on the sides, which are very abruptly pestled out of the window, and only the very tip leads to the extension of the roof. Chen Jianhao stood in front of him for a long time, and couldn't think of any practical significance of this thing except for decoration.

Flashy is what Chen Jianhao hates the most. Especially when he walked into the house and saw that there were still four huge pillars standing in the already very limited space, he immediately drooped his face. What made him even more unbearable was that it was almost noon, the sun was shining, and the house was as dark as the eve of a storm.

However, after all, this is something that can be solved by turning on the lights, and Chen Jianhao doesn't care too much. When he stepped up the stairs to take a look on the second floor, he was greeted by two double beds. Further inside, it was empty, with only two more tables.

Chen Jianhao's heart fell to the bottom all of a sudden, this is no different from a middle school dormitory!

Actually, others don't feel so good either. Everyone came here with great expectations, but they didn't expect the dormitory to be such a humble place. Xiao Pan, as an accompanying coach, also takes care of the duties of a guardian, so the bedroom is arranged separately on the first floor. He moved his luggage into the bedroom, stood there for a few seconds, then shook his head and walked out, complaining to Govia, "Are you looking for this place?" ”

"Uh...... I'm sorry, Pan. "The money from the partners is too small, and they require that the accommodation be close to the club and the school, no more than 20 minutes walk – to be honest, it's lucky to find it." ”

"It's not your fault, I'm just asking." Xiao Pan sat down on the sofa in the center of the hall, and then asked, "Is there a chef arranged?" ”

"The club will take care of your three meals, the canteen is open from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., and you can get a work permit from the team tomorrow." Govia took out a bunch of keys from his pocket and threw them to Xiao Pan, and continued: "It's very close to the club, about a five-minute walk." The school is not far from here, it is just in the opposite direction. ”

“OK。” Xiao Pan looked everywhere and said, "It sounds a little troublesome, but I don't have to choose, right?" ”

"If you're not feeling well, just let me know, and I'll tell the manager back." As he walked out, Govia said, "Okay, you guys get busy first, I need to go to the club." Come to my house for dinner in the evening and pick you up around 8 o'clock. ”

"Okay." Xiao Pan got up and said, "Thank you so much today, and I bother you to come over in person." ”

"You're welcome, my friend." Govia smiled and said, "Actually, there are not a few people left in the team, who will come if I don't come?" ”

"Oh? What's going on here? ”

"I'll tell you the truth, there's only two people left on the coaching staff right now. One was an assistant coach, and I asked him to train with the first team. The other is in charge of the youth team and can't leave. Govia smiled wryly and said, "I can't let the manager do it himself." ”

Xiao Pan was surprised: "How can this be, what about the scouts?" ”

"Alas, don't mention it. There are only three scouts, and all of them are out of town...... Okay, let's talk about the rest of the night, I really have to go. ”

After saying goodbye in a hurry, Xiao Pan sat alone on the sofa and fell into deep thought. When he went to Europe ten years ago, Boavista was still a championship contender. Although he knew that the match-fixing incident had a great impact on the team, if he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, he would never have imagined that the former powerhouse would have fallen to such a point in just a few years.

Chen Jianhao and his entourage were packing up their beds on the second floor.

In fact, there is nothing to clean up, and the club has sent someone to repaint the walls here, and they have also roughly cleaned it. In addition to being relatively simple, other aspects are quite passable.

Although it was the first time they met, the boys quickly got together because of their common hatred for Wong Tai Sin - as the saying goes, "the enemy of the enemy is the friend". Especially Wu Tianchang -- he was the one who echoed Francis to ridicule the flight attendant before boarding the plane, and also instigated Francis to ask the flight attendant for a phone -- he was the one who talked the most among the four, and he kept talking non-stop after going upstairs. In comparison, Fang Jizhou was a little shy, although he would gossip with Wu Tianchang in private, but once there were a few strangers around, his conversation box would be closed reflexively. However, when everyone talked about something funny, he couldn't help but laugh along and occasionally add a few words.

As for the most boring one, it is naturally Chen Jianhao. He chose the position of Chen Jinwu's upper bunk, cleaned up a little, and then lay down on it to rest, and didn't make much noise from beginning to end. It's rare to speak, and it's just to pick up Chen Jinwu's stubble.

It wasn't until Wu Tianchang climbed the bunk above Jizhou and began to ridicule the other party's encounter with the flight attendant that Chen Jianhao suddenly stretched out his head and asked, "It turns out that you were the one who quarreled with Wong Tai Sin on the plane?" ”

"It's me." The two beds were connected together, and Fang Jizhou immediately leaned over and said indignantly: "I can't get used to that kind of person!" ”

Chen Jinwu was folding the quilt under the bunch, and said casually: "Didn't people say their names on the plane, and you didn't find out until now?" ”

"Less nonsense, it's okay, who will remember a stranger's name?" After sending Chen Jinwu away, Chen Jianhao asked Fang Jizhou again: "I remember that Wong Tai Sin said that you stayed in Luneng?" ”

"Well, it's been four years, but I've been in the academy. What about you? ”

Wu Tianchang saw that the two were chatting, so he leaned over and interjected: "Hey, I am also in Luneng Youth Training, and I am a teammate with him." ”

"Oh." Chen Jianhao responded perfunctorily, then looked at Fang Jizhou and said, "I play football in Liaoning." The amateur team is coming, and I guess you don't know about it. ”

Chen Jinwu's voice came from below: "Me too, I'm in Hubei." ”

Fang Jizhou touched his head and said, "I'm really sorry for the two, I don't know much about the amateur team. ”

Chen Jianhao said: "It's nothing, I haven't known a few people for two years. ”

Wu Tianchang leaned closer and said: "By the way, I read the news that this year's amateur league champion is a Liaoning team, could it be you?" ”

Before Chen Jianhao could speak, Chen Jinwu took the lead and said: "That's right, and his opponent is me." ”

After a pause, Chen Jinwu continued: "What do you think if I tell you that this guy scored more than 70 goals in the divisional competition, and the finals also washed us 7:1 in blood? ”

Wu Tianchang and Fang Jizhou's eyes widened, and they couldn't help but say "ah" in unison.

Chen Jianhao didn't react, just said calmly: "Let's talk about something else, what is there to say about the amateur league." ”

After hesitating for a while, Wu Tianchang asked timidly, "Impossible, right?" How did so many goals go in? ”

"It's hard to find footage of amateur football on the Internet, so at first I didn't believe in evil, thinking they were playing match-fixing...... It wasn't until I actually faced him that I realized that this guy was even more powerful than I thought. ”

Chen Jianhao smiled: "Forget it, when I make a little famous in Portugal, it's not too late for you to praise me." ”

Fang Jizhou suddenly sighed and said, "Alas, I didn't expect to meet a strong opponent just after I came. ”

"Gotcha! You both play as a striker, and you'll have a good show to watch in the future! After speaking, Wu Tianchang gloated and laughed.

Chen Jinwu was a little puzzled and asked, "Why, can't the two forwards go on together?" ”

Chen Jianhao said disapprerovingly: "The entire front line is Chinese? Are you sure foreigners would do that? ”

"Uh......" Fang Jizhou looked at him and said, "It looks like we're really going to have to compete." ”

Chen Jianhao just said lightly: "Your opponent is not me, let's try to stay in the team first." You've just arrived here, and you haven't even scratched the eight characters. ”

With that, the atmosphere fell into a long silence.

At the end of the day, everyone here is a rookie. All their hopes for the future may end up being wishful thinking. Everyone wants to be in control of their destiny, but in reality, no matter how hard you try, success will only come to a small number of people. For most people, dreams are always missed by mistake, and you often don't know what went wrong.

Wu Tianchang stretched his head down and asked, "Chen Jinwu, what position are you playing?" ”

"Just tell me to be a god." Chen Jinwu smiled and said, "I also play as a striker. But it's mostly wingers. ”

"How are they all forwards!" Fang Jizhou picked up the pillow and covered his face.

Wu Tianchang laughed and said, "Fortunately, I play as a defender, so I'm better than you." ”

Chen Jinwu said: "I don't care. I've played in all but centre-back. As long as I can win, I'm willing to play in any position. ”

"The coach should like a player like you, but if your position changes constantly, you won't be able to play to your strengths." Wu Tianchang paused and said, "If it goes on like this for a long time...... It could end up mediocre, right? ”

"Mediocrity? Don't underestimate him. Chen Jianhao glanced at him and said, "Maybe his defense is better than your defender." ”

"You're looking down on me, aren't you? No matter how I say it, I also came out of Luneng's regular youth training. ”

Hearing that Wu Tianchang's tone changed slightly, Chen Jinwu hurriedly said: "He just talks casually, don't listen to him." ”

Chen Jianhao was aroused, and said in a provocative tone: "Or, let's find a ball to practice?" ”

Fang Jizhou had already quieted down, but seeing this situation, he hurriedly glared at Wu Tianchang and said, "What are you doing?" Why do you like to cause trouble everywhere? ”

"Don't do that!" Chen Jinwu also stood up and said righteously: "Anyway, everyone has come all the way here, and it can be regarded as a bit of fate. ”

Wu Tianchang was a little embarrassed, and said curtly: "Don't mind, I just don't know how to speak...... If you are not careful, you will offend people. ”

Chen Jianhao shrugged at Chen Jinwu and said, "Anyway, this is none of my business, what do you like." ”

Chen Jinwu smiled and said, "In the future, we will be friends, and we have to take care of each other." And if we are not familiar with life, we must unite and look outward in unison. ”
