Section 15 Noble pursuits

'Welcome to the Star Coaching System!' ’

With the voice, Zhao Yaning felt that he had lost his mind for a short time, and when he came back to his senses, he was already in a huge stadium.

Looking at the stadium simulated by sunglasses, Zhao Yaning was a little amazed, this is the Parc des Princes Stadium at all, but the stadium looks brand new, and no one in the stands on all sides has turned on all the lighting equipment, which makes Zhao Yaning feel unreal.

"Can I train here?" Zhao Yaning was a little incredulous, "Is it really useful?" ”

"Of course, in the simulation training ground, your various states are completely simulated in the real you, and you can gain experience - of course, I mean the power technique, if you want to further master this technique, and even achieve the natural power state that you can achieve without thinking, you need to train in reality, after all, the virtual environment cannot train the natural reaction of your muscles."

With that familiar annoying voice, Anelka walked to the training ground, "I'm your first coach, if you have other coaches in the future, they will sit in the coach's seat over there one by one, and you can just call him whoever you want to learn." ”

"If there are no other problems, let's start training." Anelka gave him an inquiring look.

"Training here doesn't cost me my life or anything, does it? Or is it the damage to the soul or something? ”

"The virtual training ground is a brain trainer that connects to your brain and consumes only your brain capacity – but given the development of the brain domain, it doesn't make a difference. And in reality your body is sleeping, you don't have to worry about safety. ”

"You're not Anelka, he can't understand that."

"Of course, I am a virtual person simulated by the system, although I have the ability of the player and the personality of the player, but at the same time, I am also responsible for the task of promoting products - we are a profit-oriented company, not a public welfare company."

Zhao Yaning shook his head helplessly, they would definitely not be able to make any money on this deal.

"You don't have to worry about the rest of the problem with using the training system, while training here, your body goes dormant and it doesn't have any effect. Your activity here is controlled by your brain, but because our technology is developing unused brain domains, you don't have to worry about sleep quality. At the same time, here you can always let the system rid you of the fatigue of your body - it was originally charged, but you are a free customer - and the training here will make you more successful. ”

"Isn't it much better here than outside?"

"As I said, you can't make your technique successful here as part of the body's reaction, which means that no matter how well you train your technique here, it can't compete with the real-life players who practice their skills as pure conditioning. At the same time, there is no physical training capacity here, and if you want to do physical training, you have to be outside. ”

"And one more question, this is the Parc des Princes, why the Parc des Princes? Not somewhere else? ”

"Because you haven't gotten permission yet." Anelka replied happily, "You can use the Parc des Princes because the system has verified that you have a contractual relationship with Paris Saint-Germain, which is the most monumental stadium of Paris Saint-Germain, so you use it in the star system. ”

"So if I moved somewhere else, will it be something else?" Zhao Yaning asked with interest.

"Yes. It's just going to be the team you have a contract with, or what your national team is at home, and of course because this game is a collectible game, and basically every stadium is a commemorative version. In other words, if you go to Real Madrid's home stadium, it will only be the Bernabeu, Barcelona will be the home stadium, it will only be the Camp Nou, Manchester United stadium will only be Old Trafford......"

"The Arsenal Stadium will only be Highbury...... I understand. ”

"No, Arsenal's commemorative stadium is the Emirates Stadium."

Will Arsenal have a new stadium? This surprised Zhao Yaning.

"Okay, now to answer my question, how can I control my speed?"

"The biggest problem you need to solve right now is that you can't control the speed of every dimension well," Anelka in the sunglasses answered all the questions, but his attitude was just as bad, "You still need to ask such a simple question." Charge at full speed with the ball, and when you get tired, your natural speed will drop down. After running a few more times, you will naturally know what the speed of each dimension looks like, and then you can control it. ”

"I just have to keep speeding up?"

"It's more important to feel the state of power in each dimension with your heart. How long you will be able to comprehend it has to do with your understanding. ”

"Isn't there an easier way?"

"You can consider paying for it, and then the system will adjust your speed limit so that you can adapt to your ability little by little."

It's paid again.

Zhao Yaning ran away without saying a word.

"If you're tired, you can call me, and I'll notify the system to recover your strength."

"I still have a question that I don't understand." Zhao Yaning thought about it, "Excuse me, you can answer all my questions, and you are connected to the system's resource library, so I can solve all the problems directly with you as a teacher?" ”

"The system limits my abilities, I only have Anelka's abilities, and I won't do anything outside of Anelka's abilities. If you want to learn, pay for the ability. ”

Zhao Yaning scolded and ran in circles.

"You're making a pretty fast progress." Anelka looked at Zhao Yaning, a little surprised, "You know how to suppress the speed so quickly, and then change direction to accelerate, you are not completely talentless." ”

If you run hard all night, every time your stamina drops, it will automatically help you get back to full, and you'll quickly master speed skills.

But it's true that as the system says, although he knows when to accelerate and when to slow down, he still has to think to complete the action, unlike those who can be extremely skillful like those skilled movements.

He also needs to be trained in reality.

"Can you teach me how to work on my style now?" Zhao Yaning asked.

This problem cannot be solved by the sunglasses system, although the sunglasses system is willing to solve every technical difficulty and physical fitness trouble for him, but what is the technical style, the sunglasses system cannot give an answer.

It's just a football system after all.

"I can't teach it." Anelka immediately answered, "You have to find the answer yourself." You work on the techniques according to your own physical fitness, according to your actual abilities, and at the same time pay attention to the different techniques required in different positions, and you have mastered them all, and then you have formed your own style. ”

"But you can always help me."

"Can't do it. The person who knows you best is always yourself, and only you can help yourself in this matter. Of course, some good coaches can give you advice, but no matter how good a coach is, they are just suggestions, not for you. This is also the most important difference between why a star is a star, and an ordinary player can only be an ordinary player. ”

"When you say a good coach, do you mean Arthur Wenger's kind?"

Zhao Yaning's question made Anelka stunned for a moment, and then nodded, "Of course, he is a good coach." ”

"Then why did you leave Arsenal?" Zhao Yaning asked casually.

"Ask less about things that don't concern you." Anelka frowned.

"But it did cost you a lot, your reputation, your status in football, and your place in the national team......"

"Who cares about those?" Anelka let out a low roar, "That's all. My loved ones need my help, I can make money, improve their lives, compare to their lives, what's the use of those honors or something? ”

"But are you really willing? You used to be the hope of the French strikers, but now? ”

Zhao Yaning still clearly remembers that in 98, as a French striker, Givash wasted many opportunities for the French team. The French team that year, no matter how you look at it, makes people feel that the front line is the biggest problem.

When Anelka became famous at Arsenal, including Zhao Yaning, they thought he would be the hope of the French national team in the future. But because of his stupid transfer and failed performance at Real Madrid, his reputation is getting worse and worse, and today, he has completely lost the fame of the past.

And I'm afraid there won't be any in the future.

By '01, almost every player who left Real Madrid had seen an irreversible decline. The curse of Real Madrid has always been a topic of conversation among Europeans, and Anelka is also a player who was sold by Real Madrid, no matter how you look at it, he can't reverse this curse, I'm afraid it will only sink here.

While he was sinking, France had their best time, with Thierry Henry and Trezeguet now in their respective leagues, while Cisse is now making a name for himself, with Nicolas Anelka, once seen as France's hope, now the fourth and even fifth choice in France's forward line.

In such a situation, Zhao Yaning didn't believe that he would not care at all.

"Listen, the national team game, it's just boring. There's no guarantee that you'll be able to play very well. And what does the honor of the national team say? You're from China, and you're never going to win the World Cup in your life, so does that mean you're a bad player? ”

Anelka's words made Zhao Yaning blush, "Who said we can't win the World Cup?" This '02 World Cup, we have a good chance of reaching the finals......"

Anelka's ridicule made him unable to continue, and he himself knew that his words were ridiculous.

But when others despise China, he can't help but want to refute it. Although this contempt is harmless at all, it is not unreasonable.

"Come on, listen, kid. Remember, the honor of the club, the honor of the national team, and even any personal honor, personal reputation, these are all fake. You don't really feel like playing in France, if you've been to England, you know that no matter how good you play, you're not as popular as the local players, and if you've been to Spain, you know that there's more to be in a white skin than anything else. You can't reverse other people's prejudices through football, no matter how much honor you take, no matter how big a role you play, in the eyes of some people, it is not worth mentioning. There is always only one thing that really deserves attention in this world, your loved ones. Only they are real, they won't leave you when you're at a low point, they won't try to exploit you, they won't kick you away when you're useless. Don't listen to the propaganda of those teams, what honor is paramount, victory is above, everything is worth for the team - football is just a game, not noble at all. There is only one truly noble pursuit: to earn money for your loved ones. ”

"You're too extreme."

"Am I too extreme? It's you who are too naΓ―ve. Anelka patted him, "It's time to grow up, kid." When you come to play in Europe, you should be looking for money, and everything else, that's all. ”

I'll never grow up like you.

Zhao Yaning clenched his fists.

But that night was the first time he had lost sleep since he arrived in Paris.

Is what I'm after really meaningful?

He himself was a little dazed.
