Chapter 882: Neapolitan Reunion

The tickets they bought were for Argentina, so the second game was held five days later at the São Paulo Stadium in Naples.

After the opening game, the original opening game began, Qin Zhengguo also said to the Italian girl he just met that he would go to drink together after Argentina won, but he didn't expect Argentina to lose in the opening game.

After losing, everyone's mood was not very good, naturally they lost interest in the drinking agreed before, and they broke up after leaving the stadium to say hello, and on the way back, Qin Zhengguo was still chattering with Song Yuanchao about why did he lose this ball? He also kept cursing that the referee on the spot had a problem with the decision, and if it wasn't for the referee, Argentina would definitely have won the game.

After resting for the night, Song Yuanchao left Milan and rushed to Naples the next day. Italy is not a big country, and the transportation from Milan to Naples is also very convenient, departing in the morning and arriving in Naples at noon, staying in a set hotel.

In the other group games that followed, Song Yuanchao and Qin Zhengguo were not interested in going to the scene, they could watch the TV broadcast in the hotel, or go to the Italian football bar and watch TV with some fans drinking beer and watching TV.

Not to mention, such an atmosphere is not bad, Song Yuanchao and Qin Zhengguo found a football bar near the hotel, mixed with local fans to drink and watch football games, the Italian character is more lazy, and in many ways is somewhat close to the Chinese.

Someone once commented on the character of the Italians, saying that the Italians are Chinese in Europe, in fact, this is really not wrong, because the Italian personality is indeed similar to the Chinese, but more enthusiastic and romantic, with a long period of contact, Song Yuanchao and Qin Zhengguo also learned a few words of Italian, using English and stammering Italian plus analogies, actually met a few Italian fans and friends in the football bar.

On this day, they came to the bar together, today is the match between Costa Rica and Scotland, and Song Yuanchao and Qin Zhengguo are not very interested in this game, but since they came to Italy and experienced the World Cup, they can't miss it.

"Hey! Qin, who do you think will win today? As soon as they entered the bar, an old Italian man who had just met them greeted them, and then asked Qin Zhengguo.

"Scotland, I'm more optimistic about Scotland." Qin Zhengguo didn't want to answer.

"Why not Costa Rica? Don't you think Costa Rica may be the dark horse this time? The old Italian man asked curiously.

"It's simple." Qin Zhengguo sat down next to the old man and said seriously: "Because Scotland's whisky is good, I will change its taste, and we are in the bar now." Hi! Old George, bring me a glass of Scotch whisky, the kind with a double! ”

As soon as these words came out, the old Italian man was stunned for a moment, then slapped the bar and leaned forward and backwards with a smile, and even a few other Italians on the side were all happy, giggling and laughing Qin Zhengguo is right, it is enough for Scotland to have whiskey, and if you like whiskey, you naturally support Scotland, as for Costa Rica, what is there? Can't you go fishing?

Qin Zhengguo was originally a self-cooked, and he had a good mix with a few local fans in the past two days. After the wine came up, he drank the wine and boasted that Song Yuanchao was not as thick-skinned as him, but he just sat aside and interjected from time to time, drinking his beer most of the time.

An hour later, the game began, and everyone focused on this game, because this was a game that didn't matter to Qin Zhengguo, including the Italians, so everyone's enthusiasm was not so high, and they discussed while watching the game, and commented a few words from time to time.

In the previous life, Song Yuanchao watched this game, and the game was very boring and boring, and the final score was 1:0, and Costa Rica won.

After watching it for more than ten minutes, Song Yuanchao was a little bored, drank some of the remaining beer in the cup, got up and said something in Qin Zhengguo's ear, then said hello to the other fans, and left the bar.

Walking out of the bar, the cool breeze outside was blowing, much fresher than the turbid air in the bar, Song Yuanchao looked around, and took a walk in a random direction, he planned to walk around the neighborhood, and then go back to the bar and go back to the hotel with Qin Zhengguo when the time was almost up.

Naples is the largest city in southern Italy, bordering the Mediterranean Sea and is famous for its scenic spots. Naples is also famous for its history, culture, art and gastronomy and is listed as one of the World Heritage Sites.

Song Yuanchao's hotel is not far from the coastline, south of the seaside promenade, west of the avenue is the museum and university town, and then past is the city hall.

Every summer, Naples is visited by many tourists, and this year it is even more crowded because of the World Cup. Everywhere you can see tourists walking the streets, and nearly half of them are fans.

Song Yuanchao walked a little way and came to the vicinity of the museum, where there was an open-air plaza where many fans gathered to talk loudly, and some fans organized street performances on their own.

Many fans are ordinary people, the income is not high and there is no savings, to Italy to participate in this World Cup event, travel expenses and expenses are a problem, so these fans will take the opportunity to do some performances on the street, to attract tourists to earn some expenses, the square outside the museum is like this, Song Yuanchao listened to the music and walked over, came to the small orchestra composed of several young people, and watched their performance with great interest.

These young people look like they are in their twenties, four men and one woman, dressed very ordinarily, singing rock and roll, Song Yuanchao can't understand what to sing, but the rhythm is good, the surrounding crowd of onlookers swayed their bodies to the music, and after the song was over, everyone applauded warmly.

Then, when a man started singing the second song, Song Yuanchao immediately heard what they were going to sing in this song, because this song was the theme song of this World Cup "Italian Summer", although the man's singing voice was not as good as Giorgio. Morodel is charismatic, and the girl he sings with is not Gina either. Nanini is so passionate, but the two of them have a good singing voice, coupled with the warm atmosphere around them, this "Italian Summer" has a different style in their interpretation.

Following the beat, Song Yuanchao hummed softly with everyone, indulging in a joyful atmosphere. Soon, the song ended, and everyone applauded enthusiastically, and at the same time, several people took out their change and threw it into the guitar case in front of the band as an encouragement and praise for their performance.

Song Yuanchao touched his pocket, he didn't bring a wallet when he came out. In fact, after coming to Italy, Song Chaoyuan and Qin Zhengguo never brought their wallets when they went out, Italian thieves are famous in Europe, plus the reason for the World Cup, Italy has gathered thieves from all over Europe, if you are not careful, maybe your belongings will be taken away.

Not to mention the wallet, Song Yuanchao didn't even bring a watch, and on the first day he arrived, he saw a tourist in the crowd having his watch taken away directly from his wrist. The thieves in Europe were very powerful, and Song Yuanchao had to guard against them.

Whenever you come out, you will have some change and small bills on you at most, and this money will not be much, even if it is taken away by thieves, you will not lose much. Song Chaoyuan reached out and took out two banknotes from the pocket of his jeans, and was about to step forward to throw the money into the other party's guitar case, when he was suddenly stunned, because an Asian man threw a few banknotes into it first, and when he saw him, Song Yuanchao was surprised and delighted.

"Brother Yong!" Song Yuanchao hurriedly shouted, and Daniel Zhang, who was bending down to get up and preparing to leave, was stunned, and then turned his head to look around, with doubts in his expression, as if he was determining whether it was an illusion or a reality just now.

"Brother Yong!" Song Chaoyuan quickly stepped forward, separated the crowd in front and shouted again, this time Daniel Zhang heard clearly, followed the voice towards Song Yuanchao, when he saw Song Yuanchao walking towards him, with a smile, Daniel Zhang was stunned, and instantly showed an incredible expression.

"Aid to Korea? Why are you here? Daniel Zhang's surprised expression instantly turned into surprise, strode forward, and the two hugged warmly.

"I'm here to see the game, why are you here?" Song Yuanchao did not expect to meet Daniel Zhang in Italy, the world is so big, it is a miracle to meet here.

"I'm also here to watch the game, which is a coincidence! I can actually meet you here! Daniel Zhang patted Song Yuanchao's back enthusiastically, and the unexpected encounter made him particularly happy.

Since Daniel Zhang went abroad, they have lost contact in recent years, and Song Yuanchao does not know much about Daniel Zhang's specific situation, only knowing that he first went to Xiangjiang, and then arranged to go to South America, and after arriving in South America, he learned that Daniel Zhang was safe, and he never interacted again.

This is also something that cannot be helped, and now it is not as developed as the information of later generations, and communication is also very convenient. Now it is not easy to contact friends on the other side of the ocean, and Song Yuanchao only knows that Daniel Zhang went to Bolivia, and the specific address in Bolivia is not clear, let alone contact information.

And Daniel Zhang did not take the initiative to contact his domestic friends again after he went out, and even the little brother who helped him take care of his business on Maiyang Road did not know Daniel Zhang's specific contact information. As a result, Song Yuanchao lost contact with Daniel Zhang, and it has been more than six years since he went to Bolivia in 1984.

The two hugged for a while before parting. Daniel Zhang smiled and asked Song Yuanchao how long he had been here, and Song Yuanchao told Daniel Zhang that he had arrived in Milan the day before the opening ceremony of the World Cup, and that he would arrive in Naples the next day after watching the opening ceremony. Let's go to the next game after the joint game.

Daniel Zhang laughed, he told Song Yuanchao that his itinerary was similar, and he also went to the scene to watch the opening ceremony, but there were too many people at the opening ceremony, and he and Song Yuanchao did not find each other, so they missed it.

I didn't expect to meet again in Naples, it seems that God has arranged it a long time ago, otherwise how could it be so coincidental?
