87. Football fans
There are many football fields in Happiness City, but when it comes to professional football venues, there is only one in Happiness Football School.
Shuttling through the main road of Xingfu City, you can see that the street lamps on both sides of the road are hung with football-related colored flags.
The ubiquitous football element also illustrates the common hobby of ordinary people now.
This is not the unique style of Xingfu City, but the whole of China, and this style of painting is popular now.
All this is thanks to the excellent results achieved by the Chinese national football team in the Football World Cup.
In 2022, the Chinese men's football team reached the World Cup, and for the first time in history, they came out of the group stage.
In 2026, the Chinese men's football team will be younger, and the youth storm will sweep the entire summer, making a breakthrough again and reaching the semifinals.
In June 2030, the whole of China will be completely boiling, because in the World Cup, the men's football team reached the final, but unfortunately it was almost able to win the Hercules Cup.
It is said that football is the most popular sport in the world, and it is true that men, women and children of all ages are cheering and cheering because of the achievements of the men's football team.
Old fans, after experiencing happiness in recent years, can't help but look back with emotion.
The support of the year without regrets, the wait year after year.
has experienced repeated setbacks and sinking in the sand, the careful calculation of winning a draw again and again to qualify, and the heart-rending feeling of shouting for a refund in front of the camera after watching the game on the spot......
In the last decade, all the waiting has finally come to fruition.
Full of a sense of accomplishment, it affects the heart and life of every fan.
Every football fan influences the men, women and children around him.
The football industry has flourished over the years, with TV broadcast revenue, ticket revenue, title revenue, merchandise sales revenue and so on, all of which have set records again and again.
The Chinese Super Football League is striding towards the world's first league.
Xu Xin and his brother have loved football since they were children, and it has to be said that they are deeply influenced by the football environment.
But he never expected that Wu Chuchu, a beautiful girl, actually likes to play football.
Carrying a big bag of apples, as soon as he got out of the taxi, he saw Wu Chuchu standing at the gate of the Happy Football School.
"Here!" Wu Chuchu waved his hand at Xu Xin.
Xu Xin walked quickly and saw Wu Chuchu wearing a bright red football uniform, football boots on the soles of his feet, and red and white striped socks wrapped around his entire slender calf.
It looks like she's a professional football fan.
This completely subverted Xu Xin's impression of Wu Chuchu all along.
In my impression, she always wears well-fitting professional attire, with high heels on the soles of her feet, and is serious and meticulous in her work.
"How long have you been waiting?" Xu Xin asked.
Wu Chuchu's facial features were three-dimensional, and his blue eyes seemed to be born with a hint of cold temperament, "It didn't take long." ”
As she spoke, she handed a delicate paper bag to Xu Xin, "I know that you just came out of the headquarters of the Fulin Group, so I specially bought you a jersey and sneakers." ”
In her other hand, she carried a net bag, which contained a soccer ball style used in this year's Football World Cup.
"You're thinking too well."
Xu Xin was very surprised and took the jersey and sneakers, "How do you know what number I wear?" ”
"I look at the figure very accurately." When Wu Chuchu said this, he was a little proud.
"Let's go, let's go in." Xu Xin said, took out his mobile phone, and prepared to call Lao Xu.
Lao Xu is the principal of Happy Football School and also the coach.
Xu Xin had trained under Lao Xu for several years.
The gate is closed, and the security room is guarded by security guards, so ordinary people can't enter.
Before the phone was called, Wu Chuchu had already greeted the security guard: "Open the door." ”
The security guard didn't ask, and directly opened the electronic door.
"You know the security guard?" Xu Xin was surprised.
"I don't know him, but he certainly knows me." Wu Chuchu once again showed a smug little expression.
When he walked in, Xu Xin nodded to the security guard, and said curiously as he walked: "Can you brush your face if you look beautiful?" ”
Wu Chuchu turned his head, his blue eyes full of smiles, "Some time ago, when I was still working in the Fu Phosphorus Group, I was preparing to acquire this football school, but before the implementation began, I left. ”
"Oh-" Xu Xin suddenly said.
As early as more than two months ago, he heard from his brother that the Happy Football School was in financial difficulties.
"I've been here many times, and the staff here basically know me."
Wu Chuchu said, stretching out his hand and pointing to the big bag of apples that Xu Xin was holding in his hand, "What is the habit of playing football with apples?" ”
"For Lao Xu."
Xu Xin said, turned towards a small office building, found the principal's office familiarly, and when he went in, he saw that Lao Xu was not there, so he put the apple on the table.
On the football field, the grass is green, and the soles of the feet are soft when you step on it.
The football pitch had just been watered and the humidity was perfect.
Except for Xu Xin and Wu Chuchu, they were empty.
Xu Xin has changed into his jersey and sneakers, which are the same style as the clothes worn by Wu Chuchu.
He was surprised and asked, "The others haven't arrived yet?" ”
"Just the two of us."
Wu Chuchu is stretching, and it can be seen that she is a girl who exercises regularly.
"Huh?"
"I don't know who to play with, I haven't played for a long time, so I'm looking for you to come and play and have fun."
Wu Chuchu was juggling the ball while talking, and the football was like an elf on her toes, jumping lively, but very obedient.
Xu Xin was stunned and muttered, "Fake, right? ”
Click, a pair of gloves fell in front of Xu Xin, Wu Chuchu stepped on the football and looked over, "You guard the goal, I'll shoot." ”
Xu Xin skillfully put on gloves and stepped on the goal line.
"Come!" He hooked his finger at Wu Chuchu outside the forbidden area.
He secretly swore in his heart, at such a long distance, if you score a goal, I will lose!
This kind of thing is all flowery work, and it is useless.
Have the ability to penetrate his ten fingers!
Xu Xin, who has been trained as a professional goalkeeper for several years, still has this confidence.
Wu Chuchu glanced at the goal and began to run.
Bang!
It has to be said that her shooting action is very professional, and her body strength is from top to bottom, and it all converges in the arch of her right foot.
The soccer ball crossed an arc, not fast, but a little erratic.
The key is to go straight to the corner of the goal!
Burst!
At the moment when the football was about to enter the net, Xu Xin took a step across, jumped up, and took off the flying football with his palm.
Under the inertia of his body, he lay on the ground horizontally, and all his movements were done in one go, which was very stretched.
Wu Chuchu felt that this ball hit a perfect arc and was a must-score.
is smug outside the forbidden area, giving Xu Xin a little color to see.
As a result, it did not enter.
She was surprised by Xu Xin's pounce action, "This ball can be saved!" ”
"Come again!"
Xu Xin got up from the ground and kicked the football back to Wu Chuchu, who was a little stunned outside the penalty area.
Bang!
The ball flew again, this time not a high ball, but a bocce ball, still not fast, but at a tricky angle.
Xu Xin's movements were very fast, and he pounced sideways.
This time I couldn't catch the ball, but my fingertips touched the ball and lifted it out of bounds.
He got up from the grass with some blades of grass on his body.
A girl can make him do everything in his power to make a save, for the first time.
Girls don't have an advantage in their own strength, and it is very rare to be able to shoot to this extent.
With the increase in the number of shots and the acceleration of the frequency, Wu Chuchu's body gradually tired, the ball speed gradually decreased, and the accuracy was not as good as before.
When she got to the back, she was getting more and more annoyed and angry, her blue eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and she wanted to cry.
