Forty-seven Dissolution of the national primary school football team
"This is the place where the national youth team trains. Weifang! I'm here again!" Liao Chen jumped out of the train that had just stopped in a steady state. Then his father sent him to participate in the training and selection.
"You play well, but I didn't expect you to be able to enter the national team." Liao Chen's father smiled so much that his eyes disappeared. He really didn't expect his son to play in the national team. Thinking about it, he and Liao Chen's mother strongly opposed Liao Chen's playing football. Fortunately, Liao Chen's grandparents insisted that Liao Chen continued to play football. "If you have to listen to the coach in the team, you can be selected as a national team. You have to study hard and strive to enter the final list."
"It's certainly no problem. I can say that I am the best defender in China's U15 now." Liao Chen raised his chest and raised his head to say confidently, "I want to become the best defender in the world."
"Stop bragging, you can't be humble. Humility makes people progress, pride makes people retreat. A proud will lead to defeat. Do you understand all these? Also, you have to have a good relationship with other teammates. It doesn't matter if you point fingers at others in Jiangcheng, this is the national name. It can't be like in Jiangcheng." Liao Chen's father gave earnest instructions.
"I understand, I'll just talk in front of you. Besides, I'm not pointing fingers, I'm organizing defense." Liao Chen reached out to take his suitcase from his father, but was stopped by his father.
"The box is big, I'll get it. Just follow me." After saying that, he led Liao Chen to the train station exit with the crowd.
On the training ground, about seventy or eighty people gathered together to chat. Liao Chen stood alone in a place and looked around bored. In the past two days, he also met several players from Jiangcheng in the hotel where he was temporarily staying. Strangely, these players were unwilling to have more contact with Liao Chen, and only a few people occasionally greeted him. Liao Chen was also wondering that these people were from the same place as him and often met on the field. Now, it was better, it seemed like they didn't know each other. He could chat with players from other places in the team, but he couldn't talk to several people from Jiangcheng. When they met, others either turned their heads and pretended not to see them, or nodded and greeted them and walked away in a hurry.
There was a Xinjiang child standing alone in another corner of the training ground. It was Harrick Hekmaiti from Xinjiang Ethnic Primary School. He was also bored and looked left and right to see if there were any familiar faces. He just arrived this morning and the last player to arrive. Now everyone is gathered together to group. This training camp is divided into three groups, led by three coaches. The head coach led the coach team to overview the overall situation and judge all the young players.
Nearly half of the people will be eliminated in the first stage of the training camp. The remaining young players will be divided into two groups for the second stage of the training camp. The second stage of the training camp will determine the list of the final participation of the Asian Shao Cup. The third stage of the training camp will be held to make the final sprint for the Asian Shao Cup.
A coach called the player's name on the sidelines, and the one who called him stood behind the coach. First there was a group of 24 people, followed by the second group.
Liao Chen waited for a long time but didn't hear his name. He didn't have his name until the list of the second group was finished reading. All the players from Jiangcheng had already read the name, and they all entered the second group.
"What the hell? I, the best guard, actually want to go to the third group?" Liao Chen was a little stunned. Sure enough, the first name of the third group was Liao Chen, and Liao Chen had no choice but to walk behind the coaches of the third group.
"Liao Chen? Is it Liao Chen from Moral Education Primary School?" Harrick Hekmaiti's eyes lit up and he hurriedly looked behind the three teams of coaches. He couldn't help but feel happy when he saw it. Although he and Liao Chen had only had a few days of contact, it was not as good as his relationship with Colin. But at least he was a friend who could speak.
"Harrick. Well~, Hekmaiti!" The three teams of coaches paused, and he was still unable to read the names of Xinjiang people.
"What?" Liao Chen immediately glared at the crowd and looked for it. He was very impressed by Harrick Hekmaiti.
Sure enough, a young man from Xinjiang walked out of the crowd and walked straight towards Liao Chen. When Liao Chen saw him, he opened his mouth and was happy. "It's really you, Harrick!"
"Yunjing, this is the training team! It's not your local team, you can just relax!" Before Harrick Hekmaiti could speak, the three teams of coaches glared at them. The two immediately did not dare to speak, and could only express their excitement with their eyes.
After the three groups are allocated, the three groups have the largest number of people. Everyone knows that the three groups are just roles who accompany the prince to study. Ninety-nine percent are unlikely to enter the final list. They are just whetstones to sharpen those young players in the first group. Some people in the second group have the chance, but the chance is not great. Generally, they are preventing injuries in one group, and some people can take it. On the other hand, they give some pressure to one group of players and don’t let them be too relaxed.
At this time, Liao Chen didn't care about the groups he was divided into. It was the most exciting thing that could meet Harrick here. The two of them dared not speak and stood together until the group ended.
After the grouping, there was no training, but a dormitory room was assigned. This training camp was closed. The young players had to live in the dormitory provided by Weifang Sports Center. The dormitory conditions were good, and there were two people in one room. Hot water was provided for 24 hours. In addition, the canteen of the Sports Center provides three meals.
Liao Chen directly pulled Harrick and Hekmaiti to find the management staff assigned to the dormitory and asked to live in the same room as Harrick. When the man saw that these two were players in three groups, he didn't bother them and handed them two room cards directly. The rest of the time was to deal with his own business. The team asked to return to the sports center before dinner, go to the cafeteria to have a meal together, and hold a mobilization meeting.
Liao Chen and Harrik did not delay, and made an appointment to go to the hotel they were temporarily staying to get their luggage, and said goodbye to their father. He asked his father to go back first and stop wasting money here.
After everything was done, it was already dinner time. Liao Chen and Harrick put down their luggage and rushed to the cafeteria. The dishes in the cafeteria were not rich, but they were well-nutritional, which was most suitable for young players of this age. Liao Chen and Harrick brought the plate and cooked some chicken, some vegetables and a bowl of rice. They found a corner to sit down and chat.
"Why has the Eagle Cup been postponed this time?" Chang Cheng asked Huang Jing strangely, "School is about to start but the game is finished."
"Because the two participating teams abroad can only come to participate in the competition during this period." Huang Jing replied while flipping through the list of new players who have registered for the new semester.
"Those two teams are so proud of their face, and they still change the schedule for them?"
"Barcelona and Manchester United." Huang Jing didn't raise his head.
"Okay, I didn't ask." Chang Cheng said with a wry smile. Chang Cheng suddenly thought of something and asked quickly: "Which teams are participating in this competition?"
"In addition to Barcelona and Manchester United U13, there are also Dortmund and Frankfurt in Germany and Inter Milan in Italy."
"What about domestic? Are there ethnic primary schools in Xinjiang coming?"
"They? No. I didn't come this time." Huang Jing raised his head and looked at Chang Cheng and said, "I heard from the people from the organizing committee that they invited Minzu Primary School, but their team was disbanded, and Bilali also retreated."
"What?! Bi Lali retreated? The team was disbanded?" Chang Cheng stared at Huang Jing in surprise, "What's going on? Bi Lali retreated? How could he retreat?"
"I don't know very well about the specifics, I only know that he retreated because he was sick."
"Where are those little players?"
"Some of them continue to study, some go home to do things, and some are signed by a team called Jinbo, who is called Jinbo."
"Oh, those were signed?"
"How could I know? I only know that No. 8 Harrick was signed away. Don't you have Bi Lali's contact information?" Huang Jing asked suddenly.
"Yes, but unfortunately, only his school's landline and address. When I contacted him some time ago, the landline number turned into an empty number and the letter was returned. I don't know how they were." Chang Cheng remembered the direct final between Minzu Primary School and German Primary School, as well as the showdown between Harrick Hekmaiti and Colin.
"Which team are you in now?" Liao Chen stuffed a large piece of chicken into his mouth and asked vaguely.
"Me? I'm at Shandong Luneng Football School now." Harrick Hekmaiti's expression was a little dim and he lowered his head to bite the next cucumber.
"Okay, Shandong Luneng is pretty good. You will definitely be able to join the professional team in the future." Liao Chen said while consuming, "Where is that Ronaldo, Xinjiang, with you?"
"He's gone home and doesn't play football anymore."
"Why?" Liao Chen stopped the chopsticks in his hand and raised his head and asked, "He kicked it very well."
"I don't know what's going on. After we graduated from elementary school, a team named Jinbo wanted to sign us all. Two people didn't continue playing. They were laborers at home and could not come out. The others were signed. At that time, we were very happy and had the opportunity to play professional football."
"Then why did you get to Luneng?" Liao Chen put down his chopsticks and listened carefully to Harrick Hekmaiti's story.
"That Jinbo is actually a fake guy. They signed us all and directly recommended them to other teams in batches. As long as one person is favored by the other party, they can make a lot of money. If no one likes, they will go home."
"Only you are attracted by Luneng, and everyone else has gone back?"
"Yes."
Liao Chen raised his eyebrows: "There are several people in your team who played well, but they are not attracted to it?"
"No. I'm the only one."
"Then you're okay in Luneng." Liao Chen asked again.
"Luneng is pretty good. As long as you have enough strength, you won't have to worry about not being able to play in the game. I am now the core of the midfielder of Luneng U15, and I am still the deputy captain." When it comes to Luneng, Harrick Hekmaiti seemed to open the gates of conversation and became versatile.
They talked about the outstanding players of their respective teams, about the exciting moments of certain games, about their respective coaches, and about Colin who was abroad.
"It seems we are one step behind. Colin is now playing at U17 in Germany. I also want to go abroad and I want to become the best defender in the world." When it comes to Colin, Liao Chen's eyes shining.
