After the victory over Finland, the Spanish national team left Helsinki the next day.

Because there are only five teams in Group I, after playing a World Preliminary Tournament, the Spanish national team has a bye.

So, they contacted another team that also had a bye to play a warm-up game.

On September 10, the Spanish national team arrived in Geneva to face the South American side Chile.

Because of the early qualification for the group stage, Spain is now mainly focusing on training.

Bosque made a big adjustment to the starting list in this game, and many of the main players, including Lin Quan, sat on the bench.

Chile is doing its best and wants to learn from the world champion.

In the game, Vargas, who won the Chilean Footballer of the Year and played for Valencia, took the lead in helping the team break through the door of Spain.

Today's starting goalkeeper of Spain is Barcelona's goalkeeper Valdés, and Valdés cannot be blamed for this goal, the opponent's speed is too fast, and after passing the defender, he suddenly got up and hit the goalkeeper by surprise.

"This kid can, this footwork, this is good!"

On the bench, several of Spain's main players saw this goal, and their eyes lit up one by one.

There is an inexplicable sense of familiarity in the way the opponent scores points.

The more I look at it, the more I look like someone from my own team.

"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm not as fast as him! ”

Lin Quan saw that his teammates were all looking at him, and couldn't help but smile and said.

"If you have his speed, then you are not directly invincible?"

Casillas tried to think in his mind about facing Lin Quan, who was in front of the goal, and couldn't help but shudder.

It's scary just to think about!

The rest of his team-mates nodded their heads, and for the winger, the faster the speed, the greater the threat.

For teams that like to play on both wings, there are hard requirements for the speed of the wingers, and slow players can't play this set.

However, Lin Quan's dribbling is powerful enough, it doesn't matter if he wants speed or not, anyway, he has a hundred means to get past the opponent's defender.

But if his speed can really increase, then he will become even more terrifying on top of his existing foundation!

……

Spain, who were behind the score, were not in a hurry, and the young players on the field were still a little nervous, but under the comfort of the old players, their tension quickly calmed down.

In the 37th minute, Pedro sent a clever pass and Soldado scored in one fell swoop to help his team equalize.

But Vargas was in great form today, and seven minutes later, in almost the same position, he used his pace and breakthrough again to break through the Spanish defence and change the scoreline again.

2:1, Chile temporarily led by one goal.

At half-time, the young players who came on in the first half were all nervous.

There seemed to be a fear that the manager would blame them for their poor performance.

Prior to this friendly match, Spain had extended their unbeaten record in all competitions for almost 20 years.

If you only count the main event, the last time we lost was the first defeat to Switzerland in the group stage of the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.

It's been more than three years since that game so far.

The strength of the Spanish dynasty is evident.

It is precisely because of this that, as a member of the Bullfighting Army, they do not want to and dare not discredit the honor of the team.

If the Matadors' unbeaten run were to be ended because of their poor performances, they would surely be blamed by the fans and their conscience would be upset.

"Don't have too much psychological pressure, this is just a friendly game, you all played so tightly in the first half, you didn't let go at all, and if you go on like this, it will only get worse and worse!"

Bosque was clearly not happy with the performance of his players in the first half, and he knew that the quality of the group was not weak.

The reason why they didn't have an effect, but were suppressed by their opponents, is mainly because they can't let go of their mentality.

An undefeated record is both an honor and a shackle.

With this shackle, the players themselves can't help but want to defend it.

In this way, it is easy for them to go on the field with their burdens, and when they get to the field, they have too many worries and can't let go of their hands and feet, so it is naturally easy to fall into passivity.

"The coach is right, it's just a friendly game, everyone is free to play, if it really doesn't work, just leave 30 minutes for our main players.

As long as we don't fall behind by three goals, we are sure of an equaliser! ”

Seeing that the players did not have much reaction to Bosque's remarks, Xavi and other veteran players stood up and said with a smile.

As the world's first, you naturally have the confidence to be the world's first.

The offensive firepower of the Spanish national team may not have been so exaggerated before, but now, after Lin Quan joined, the team's offensive firepower has been upgraded in all aspects.

Therefore, they have every confidence to say such things!

The young players were still a little apprehensive in their hearts, but at this time, they were all relieved to hear the big brothers of the team say this.

Yes, there are veteran players, what are you afraid of?

As soon as I thought of this, the psychological baggage of the players was completely let go.

At the start of the second half, these young players performed much better than in the first half, and all kinds of Spanish combinations were played one after another.

This relieved Bosque, who was still hanging with a heart.

The atmosphere in the dressing room still needs to be filled with veteran players like Xavi and Casillas.

In the 65th minute of the second half, after 20 minutes of attack, Spain finally equalized.

It was Isco who scored the goal.

After the equaliser, the young players on the field hugged each other excitedly.

With not many main players in charge, they relied on their own efforts to suppress the South American powerhouses and stubbornly equalized after falling behind twice.

It's not easy!

Bosque also felt that it was too difficult for them, so he replaced eight players in one go, replacing all the young players on the field.

The main players take over the game in turn.

Although Bosque said that he didn't care about the myth of undefeated, his body was very sincere.

With less than 30 minutes left in the game, he made a full substitution, and to say that he didn't want to win the game would be an insult to someone's IQ.

The coach of the Chilean team twitched slightly after seeing this substitution from Spain.

Although it is a friendly match, there is no limit to the number of substitutions.

But don't your players need to warm up?

Aren't we afraid that we will take advantage of the fact that your players are not familiar with the rhythm of the game on the field and catch you off guard?

Spain is really not afraid!

Once these key players were on the pitch, they quickly took charge of the game.

The Chilean team tried to make a sneak attack, but it ended up hitting the iron plate.

The Spanish team not only restrained their attack, but also quickly pushed back.

The intensity of the game brought by the arrival of the main team was completely different from the feeling when facing a group of substitutes before.

The remaining 25 minutes of the second half almost turned into a half-time offensive and defensive drill for the Spaniards.

They raced around the Chilean goal for more than 20 minutes and finally won the game with a score of 4:2.

The substitutes off the field saw the main team pressing the opponent to the ground on the field and blasting the hammer, and it only took more than 20 minutes to pour 2 balls into the opponent, and they all admired the five-body throw.

The big brothers in the team really didn't brag!

Even if they don't equalise, they can easily win against the opponent after changing to the main team.

After a friendly match against Chile, Bosque announced the dissolution of the team.

The players went their separate ways and returned to their respective teams.

The next national team game is not until a month away, but with the group stage ahead of schedule, Bosque may not be able to call up so many key players to Eastern Europe.

So, they may not see each other for months or even half a year.

……

Back in Manchester, Perret approached the door.

"You mentioned investment before, and I've done some research here to see if there are any projects you're interested in."

Pere said and handed over a copy of the investment project he had sorted out to Lin Quan.

Lin Quan took it and browsed curiously.

It can be seen that Pere still has his heart.

The information he compiled is very comprehensive and detailed, and there are many types of investments.

Including real estate, futures, stocks, etc.

"After the financial crisis of '08, real estate in Europe has fallen to the bottom, and in the past few years, it has been in the recovery phase, and house prices are rising all over Europe.

Moreover, Middle Eastern conglomerates have made a big deal of money and bought a lot of land in Europe, further driving up the price of real estate.

I have calculated that according to the investment income in the past five years, the investment exchange rate in real estate can reach about 10%, which is a very good return! ”

Lin Quan remembered what happened when he bought a house in Munich before, and according to the Germans, Middle Eastern consortiums did cooperate with them very frequently.

Oil tycoons have made a lot of dollars in the past few years when oil prices are high, and there is nowhere to spend the money, which is the world's bottom real estate.

However, Lin Quan knows that with the outbreak of the Wudong problem next year, Europe's economy will collapse.

At that time, this investment boom will quickly subside, and now entering the market is very likely to become a high-level receiver.

So he rejected the project.

"In the case of real estate, the risk is too high, and our principal is small, so don't get involved!"

£100 million may seem like a lot, but it's not enough in the face of high house prices.

Hearing Lin Quan's words, Pere roughly figured out the other party's concerns.

He belongs to the kind of risk-averse and prudent investment people, and likes the kind of investment products with low risk.

So, he spoke:

"The wineries in France are good, the demand for wine in the international market is increasing, the market prospects are very good, and the price is not high, do you want to consider it?"

Investing in wineries is something that many of Spain's internationals are doing.

"You can put a little money into it, how much does a medium-sized winery cost?"

"Probably a few million euros, right?"

"Okay, vote for me, the kind that you want to bring the vineyard!"

Making money is secondary, having his own winery is his main purpose.

"And what are you going to invest the rest of the money in?"

Only then did one percent of the assets be disposed of, and more than half of them were not spent.

"The rest of the money was split into two cents and half was used to buy shares in the company.

The other half, I intend to handle it myself. ”

There are some things that Lin Quan doesn't plan to tell Perre, not that he intends to guard against the other party, but mainly because he is afraid of trouble.

To let Perret know is to let Pep Guardiola know.

Guardiola is more verbose, and Lin Quan doesn't like to listen to him drive a hair dryer.

"Okay, I'll deal with it!"

Pere glanced at the name of the company that Lin Quan was going to invest in and nodded slightly.

This is an American Internet company, and investing in Internet companies is a trend in this era.

Although he doesn't know much about the Internet, this kind of investment is a good investment in Europe, and the U.S. stock market has been rising in recent years.

As long as the company doesn't die violently, then such an investment basically can't be lost.

Thinking of this, Pere himself couldn't help but feel a little tempted.

He plans to do some research when he goes back and see what the future holds for the company.

If the market gives a high evaluation and the prospects are very good, then he also plans to invest a little money with Lin Quan.

……

After Pere left, Lin Quan turned on his computer and searched the Internet for the latest price of Bitcoin.

The current price of bitcoin is $112 a piece, and if this price is placed in ten years, it will be the price of cabbage.

But at this time, the price is very high, 12 times more expensive than last year.

Many experts claim that the price of bitcoin is inflated, the volume is extremely low, and it is a deception of the drum.

After a casual search, the major media on the Internet basically have a negative attitude towards this thing, and there are almost no people who say good things about him.

This is understandable, Lin Quan himself also feels that this thing is unreliable.

However, the memories of the time-traveler told him that in 2013, there was no higher return on investment than this thing.

Although its price has increased more than ten times in the past year, it already looks very inflated.

However, this is not the end of Bitcoin madness.

This virtual currency will skyrocket hundreds of times in a few years, and if he buys it at the current price and sells it in 2017, he will get nearly 200 times the return.

If you are a little more greedy and wait until the high point of 2021-2022 to sell, you can even get five or six hundred times the profit.

Of course, he has the same attitude as the mainstream crowd, and he also thinks that this thing is suspected of beating drums and passing flowers.

So I don't plan to hold it for a long time, but I'm just going to make a profit and run.

However, the memories brought by the time-traveler may not be reliable, and considering the existence of the butterfly effect, Lin Quan is not sure if this space-time bitcoin is also as crazy as the original plane.

Therefore, he only dared to invest half of the funds in this project, and the other part of the funds was used to make some more stable investments.

At this time, the stocks of some Internet companies are still relatively low, and they can also get a lot of income if they take it for seven or eight years, and when the price rises tenfold, they can also get a lot of profits.
