Chapter 194: Numbers
The first thing Gotze did after opening his eyes was to turn his head to look at the bed next door, and when he saw that Zhou Yi was still lying on the bed, he was relieved - it seemed that he was not late. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
When I went to bed last night, I was always thinking about getting up early and training with Zhou Yiqi, and I didn't sleep well.
Now he woke up early, although Zhou Yi hadn't gotten up yet, but Ge Ce didn't dare to sleep.
He just opened his eyes and quietly waited for Zhou Yi next to him to get up.
In order not to lose to Zhou Yi, Ge Ce is also very hard.
When he was in the youth team before, Götze didn't have such a strong sense of competition because everyone was a youth team player. And Gotze always believed that he would go to the first team earlier than Zhou Yi.
Unexpectedly, after the end of the season, he was transferred to the first team with Zhou Yi. Subsequently, whether in training or in the warm-up game, Zhou Yi's performance was not far behind. Gotze finally felt the crisis.
The competition came so fast that he had to face it head-on.
You must not lose to Zhou Yi!
When he was in the youth team, Gotze had already seen Zhou Yi's strength and knew that this was a very powerful character. He never underestimated Zhou Yi, otherwise he would not have exchanged jerseys with him in the first place.
But after arriving at the first team, Gotze found that Zhou Yi was stronger than when he was in the youth team, and he had to go all out, otherwise he might be left behind by Zhou Yi.
He didn't want this to happen to him!
Ge Ce, who was opening his eyes and counting the ceiling lattice, suddenly heard the sound of the quilt rubbing on the bed next to him, he turned his head and saw Zhou Yi lifting the quilt and getting up, so he also quickly sat up from the bed, which startled Zhou Yi, turned around and looked at him with wide eyes and some surprise: "You are urgent, you go first." ”
"Who's in a hurry!" Gotze rolled his eyes.
"Then why are you jumping up? I thought you were going to grab the toilet with me......"
"You got up to go to the bathroom?" asked Götze.
"Well, wash up by the way. ”
"What a coincidence, I washed up too. Götze replied.
"Are you really here?" Zhou Yi thought of what Gotze said to him yesterday.
"Of course. Don't underestimate my consciousness!" Gotze looked serious.
"Okay, whatever you want......" Zhou Yi grinned, got out of bed and got up in the bathroom to wash.

When physical trainer Oliver Bartlett was in the gym, he was a little surprised to see Zhou Yi still followed by Gotze.
"This is ......," he asked Zhou Yi as he looked at Gotze.
"Leave him alone, coach, we'll practice ours. Zhou Yi said and began to warm up.
Gotze also warmed up on the side.
Bartlett couldn't figure out what Gotze was going to do, so he had to remind him: "Mario, you don't have to train in advance......"
"It's okay, coach, I did it voluntarily and I want to try to improve myself. Goetze smiled at Bartlett and continued his warm-up.
Seeing that Götze's attitude was very resolute, Bartlet had no choice but to dissuade him, but reminded him: "You just do some simple physical training, don't hurt yourself, Mario." ”
"I see, thank you for your concern, Coach. Götze said as he stretched.
So in this way, while Zhou Yi was training his physical fitness on the treadmill, Götze was also doing his strength training on the corresponding equipment.
And at seven o'clock, when the big army came to the gym to start today's morning exercise, they were surprised to find that this time not only Zhou Yi was already sweating, but Ge Ce next to him also looked like he had been training for a long time!
"Hey, Zhou Yi, Mario, what are you doing?" Grosskloitz exclaimed in surprise with his mouth wide open.
But neither Zhou Yi nor Mario answered him, they just gritted their teeth and insisted.
Seeing this scene, the captain Kyle slapped his hands and shouted at the onlookers: "Guys, are you willing to let the two hairy boys compare you to you?
"Okay!!" everyone responded.
Grosskloitz turned to look at his teammates, who were already warming up.
"Why everyone's aura has changed......" he didn't react.
In this way, every morning, the players of the first team can always see Zhou Yi and Gotze sweating when they come to the gym, and under their stimulation, none of the other first-team players want to be lazy in training, because then they will be considered inferior to the hairy boys of the two youth teams, which is simply too embarrassing!

In August, the Dortmund team ended their training camp in Switzerland and set off to play for Dortmund.
The first round of the Bundesliga season kicks off on 7 August, and the team must return to Dortmund to prepare for the new season and give the players a rest. After a month of high-intensity training, if the players are not allowed to relax, I am afraid that at the beginning of the season, the string that is tight will be broken.
After returning to Dortmund, Zhou Yi was called to the office alone by Klopp.
"I heard Russ say that you personally have a favorite number, which is twenty-three?"
Zhou Yi nodded, not understanding what Klopp was doing when he said this.
"I'm just curious, why is it such a big number, so I want to ask you, of course, if you think this is a matter of personal privacy, it's okay if you don't want to answer. ”
"Ah, this is a ...... nothing" Zhou Yi told Klopp why he chose the twenty-three.
"That means you were the worst person in the audition finals of that reality show, so you want to use this number to remind you of your origin?" Klopp listened to Zhou Yi's narration with great interest.
"Well, yes. Zhou Yi nodded.
"Interesting. Klopmo rubbed his chin, "So, your number in the first team is twenty-three, what do you think?"
Hearing the head coach say this, Zhou Yi was stunned for a moment, and he hadn't reacted yet.
Jurgen Klopp looked at him and smiled: "What kind of expression do you have? Shouldn't ordinary people cheer when they hear such words? Isn't it a joy to be in the first team?"
Zhou Yi pointed at himself in disbelief and said, "I'll stay in ...... First team?"
During this time, he trained with the team and also played some warm-up games. Except for the first warm-up game, where he played 60 minutes for special reasons, the rest of the games were only half-time, or half-time.
In these warm-up games, Zhou Yi also felt that his physical strength was still difficult to cope with a complete game.
Although he has played 90 minutes in the youth team, after so many warm-up games in the first team, he found that the intensity of the first team is completely incomparable to that of the youth team, and being able to barely play 90 minutes in the youth team does not mean that he can also play 90 minutes in the first team.
He only understood why manager Jurgen Klopp would say that his fitness was up to par.
He doesn't have as much confidence as he used to be in the first team, he just trains hard and tries to improve himself first.
Unexpectedly, when he didn't think about it, luck favored him.
When I got back to Dortmund, I heard good news!
"Why, with that look on your face, you don't want to stay in the first team?" Klopp asked rhetorically.
"Ahh
Klopp was amused by Zhou Yi's change of face, and he opened his arms: "Come on, boy." ”
So Zhou Yi pounced and hugged Klopp: "Thank you, coach!"
Klopp patted Zhou Yi the back: "Don't be too happy, boy." Just because you're in the first team doesn't mean you're going to play in the first team, you're still a long way from the game. ”
"I know, coach!" Zhou Yi let go of Klopp and looked at him. "I know, I'll keep trying!"
Zhou Yi happily almost jumped out of Klopp's office, and Klopp couldn't help but shake his head when he saw him like this behind him-this kid ......

Zhou Yi couldn't pull out his phone when he came out of Klopp's office, and he couldn't wait to tell his parents the news.
He called his father directly.
After a few rings, the phone was answered.
"What's the matter with my son, your father and I'm at work......" Zhou Jianliang's voice answering the phone was obviously speaking in a suppressed voice, which made people completely imagine what he looked like now.
"Dad, I'll have good news for you - I'm staying in the first team! I'm in the first team for the new season!" Zhou Yi shouted excitedly.
There was silence on the other side of the phone for about a second, and then Zhou Jianliang's exclamation rang: "Really, son?!"
"Of course! I just came out of the manager's office and he asked me what number I wanted!"
"Great, son!"
Colleagues in the office looked in amazement at Zhou Jianliang, who suddenly stood up from his seat, holding his mobile phone and shouting "Great". At this time, Zhou Jianliang completely forgot that he was still working......
"I'll tell you about it, Dad. I'm going to call my mom now......"
Zhou Yi was about to hang up the phone, but was stopped by his father: "Don't call her, you are an international call, or let me tell her." You're going to keep working hard over there, do you hear that?"
"Hear me, Dad. ”
"That's good, it's my son!"
Zhou Jianliang hung up the phone and waved his fist excitedly: "Wow!!"
At this time, he reacted, and found that everyone around him was looking at him with neurotic eyes.
"Uh, I'm sorry......" Zhou Jianliang hurriedly apologized to everyone and sat down at the same time.
But he quickly got up again, walked briskly out of the workshop, walked out of the office area, and at the same time took out his mobile phone and began to call his wife.
Colleagues looked at his back and couldn't help but discuss: "What's wrong with Lao Zhou?"
"Did you win the lottery ticket you bought?"
"Isn't there a lottery yet?"
"Oh yes......"

When Li Cuiyun was at work, she received a call from her husband, she didn't pick up the phone directly at the workstation like her husband, but got up and walked out of the office, and then answered the phone: "What's the matter?"
"Hey, hey. Zhou Jianliang smiled on the other end of the phone.
"Speak. ”
"Hey, hey, hey. Zhou Jianliang was still laughing.
"Hey, if you don't speak, I'll hang up, people are busy here!" Li Cuiyun said impatiently.
"Don't, don't ......," Zhou Jianliang said, "I'll tell you good news, wife!"
"You won a third prize in the lottery ticket you bought yesterday?"
"It's not a lottery yet! Hey, hey, hey......" Zhou Jianliang said and couldn't help laughing again.
"Did you take the wrong medicine, why do you keep laughing!" Li Cuiyun frowned.
"Ha, I didn't take any medicine. He's been left in the first team!"
Hearing her husband say this, Li Cuiyun was stunned for a moment.
"Do you know what that means? It means that our son is a first-team player! He's going to play in a professional league! This is a real professional player! Not the kind of player who has a professional contract but can only play in the reserve team or the youth team!" Zhou Jianliang excitedly explained to his wife on the phone.
"Look, you're happy......" Li Cuiyun didn't know what to say.
"Of course I'm happy! Our son has succeeded! He's succeeded! My son has succeeded, shouldn't you be happy to be a father?" Zhou Jianliang retorted to his wife, he rarely did this, it seemed that this time he was really excited.
"It's time to go back and fry a few good dishes for you in the evening, so that you can drink, are you satisfied?"
"Wife, you really understand me! I have a wife who understands me, and a son who is promising, what more can a husband ask for in such a life?"
"Ouch, that's sour......"
"Hey, hey, hey. Zhou Jianliang only knew how to laugh.
"Okay, I see, I still have work to do, that's all. ”
"Okay, come on, wife!"
Li Cuiyun shivered and hung up the phone.
She didn't immediately return to the office, but stood in the hallway outside, looked down at her phone in her hand, and laughed.
