071 The call of the national team
"If it were me, maybe neither of us would have chosen."
This answer was completely unexpected by Sun Xiang, so Sun Xiang asked Wang Jing the reason.
"Quite simply, this kind of behavior of a collector is very ugly, and I will never choose him; The merchant only paid half of the fee, and then immediately got the painting and did an appraisal, which was obviously a sign of distrust, proving that he still had some concerns in his heart, and he probably felt more comfortable doing so, but I didn't like this kind of practice myself, and he was rude to the seller. β
After Sun Xiang read Wang Jing's answer, he understood why Wang Jing said this.
"Then if you have to choose one, I mean you have to choose a next home."
"Then I guess I'll choose a merchant, after all, the collector's approach is too much for me to accept."
"Eun, I think so too."
"I don't know exactly what happened to you, but I guess it should be similar to this incident, otherwise I wouldn't have suddenly told me such a story."
"Sort of, it's giving me a bit of a headache." Sun Xiang replied.
"Okay, don't have a headache, I'll go over tomorrow afternoon. By the way, my roommate today is the one named He Huan, and she brought back a piece of cake, which seems to have been bought from a bakery near the school, which is super delicious! I'll bring it to you tomorrow! β
"Yes! It's so good, then I have to look forward to it. β
"Then you just look forward to it, don't say it, He Huan told me to take a bath, see you tomorrow!"
"See you tomorrow."
After the chat, Sun Xiang threw his phone aside, and sure enough, chatting with others can really relieve pressure, and now Sun Xiang obviously feels much more comfortable.
At least not so low.

Five days later, the 27th round of the Bundesliga began, and this round of matches can be described as a lot of highlights. Eintracht Frankfurt reunited with Mainz's Rhein-Main derby, Freiburg and Stuttgart's Baden-WΓΌrttemberg derby, Bayer Leverkusen and Cologne's Rhine derby, and the recently concluded "German Cup derby" with Wolfsburg and Schalke 04.
In fact, except for the matches between Eintracht Frankfurt and Mainz, the rest of the derbies are more like one-sided training battles, Freiburg and Cologne are still deep in the relegation circle, and the relegation situation is not optimistic. Although they are all playing at home, the difference in strength makes reporters not optimistic about the possibility of them being upset. So in contrast, they prefer to put more of their experience into the "German Cup derby".
It was the second meeting between the two teams in March, with Wolfsburg beating them 3-1 at home thanks to goals from Heinz, Alexander-Arnold and Sun Xiang, not only taking their first win against the miners in 16 years, but also sending them out of the German Cup.
Perhaps because of the lingering fear of the defeat in the German Cup, the Schalke 04 players will launch a tidal wave against Wolfsburg from the first minute of the game.
Di Santo and Burgstahler hit the crossbar twice, shocking the fans at the scene into a cold sweat.
In the 42nd minute of the game, Di Santo's breakthrough caused Brooks to foul, and the referee decisively awarded a penalty, and Bentaleb took the penalty in one fell swoop, and the miners led 1:0 on the road.
In the second half, Max Meier, who was watching Sun Xiang all over the field, made a mistake in front of the penalty area, and his handling of the ball was a little sluggish for Sun Xiang to easily break off, and the latter entered the penalty area and brought down Meier, and the referee awarded a penalty and showed Meier a yellow card.
Gomez, who returned from injury, took the penalty, but the last step of the support foot was not firmly stepped on, and the ball flew high into the stands, which also made the fans sigh.
It wasn't until the 90th minute of the game that Wolfsburg finally equalized. Gomez, who missed the penalty, returned the ball from the bottom line, and Sun Xiang at the top of the box fired a low shot under the interference of Meier, but Ferman couldn't save it, and the ball drilled into the goal from his armpit.
In the end, the score of 1:1 was maintained to the end, and this was the second consecutive game that Sun Xiang could not help the team win. After the game, some unknown reporters also threw the question to coach Schmidt.
"Are you questioning Sun's strength? Obviously he did a great job. He also scored goals and planned, otherwise the reason why the team didn't win was with him, and I wouldn't allow others to say that about him! He's one of the best players in the Bundesliga and he doesn't deserve that! Then, under the gaze of reporters, he left the scene angrily.
............................................
At the end of this round, Borussia MΓΆnchenbach beat Hoffenheim to 45 points due to Hannover's draw with Borussia Dortmund, but Wolfsburg still maintained fifth place in the league due to the disadvantage of goal difference. Hoffenheim lost away to Borussia MΓΆnchengladbach, leaving them with only one win left to their point gap to Wolfsburg.
If Hoffenheim misses a little in the next seven rounds, he will be caught up by Wolfsburg behind him, and the Champions League place will be out of order.
Looking at Hoffenheim's schedule for the next seven rounds, it will not be difficult to play Cologne at home next, followed by Eintracht Frankfurt and Hamburg, both of which are also mediocre. Wait until the 31st round away to challenge the Bundesliga "new army" RB Leipzig, the 32nd round away to Hannover and the last round at home to the "Hornets".
Wolfsburg's schedule is much easier than Hoffenheim's, and it should not be too difficult to get out of the stadium at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin in the next round. Heading into April, their only challenge is to play Borussia Monchengladbach in 31 rounds, which have recently been gaining momentum under the leadership of Eden Hazard, which is also a direct clash between two Champions League rivals.
This was followed by the penultimate round of the league against RB Leipzig, and Wolfsburg will not face any strong opponents. Therefore, if you want to get a ticket to the Champions League, you must play well in the last four rounds of the league.

Two days after the end of the 27th round of the league, the semi-finals of the German Cup were grouped. Wolfsburg's semi-final opponent is Werder Bremen with Zhang Yuning, and the Bundesliga duo are likely to meet in the German Cup.
But that's all for later, the two people at this moment are doing what a player dreams of doing in Milan, Italy, and playing for their country.
In fact, long before the Schalke game, Wolfsburg received a fax from the Chinese Football Association, hoping to call Sun Xiang up to the national team for two warm-up games in March.
Wolfsburg agreed to release him, but only after Schalke's game.
So, at the first moment of the end of the game. Sun Xiang learned the news.
It is the greatest honor to serve his country, and he himself is always looking forward to this day.
The national team asked the players to assemble and depart in Wuhan before March 19, but due to the peculiarities of Sun Xiang and Zhang Yuning, the club agreed that they would arrive directly in Milan, Italy, by the 20th to join the team.
In the seven days from March 22 to March 29, the national football team will play two friendly matches with Italy and Switzerland. This time period coincided with the start of the Chinese Super League, so some clubs did not release their main players, and Lippi reserved more places for players in the U18-U23 age group. In this campaign, "Silver Fox" Lippi wants to prepare for the World Cup team in 4 years, and Sun Xiang is the most important player in Lippi's future policy.
