Chapter 19 Invitation from the First Team ()
Chen Yingxiong felt that his life was much smoother all of a sudden. With the "translator" of Ye Saining, his communication with others was much better than before, and he could also understand newspaper articles-later under Ye Saining's translation , He knew the content of that article: reporters were speculating on the origin of Chen Yingxiong. Because there was no name on the shirt, they didn't even know what this person was called.
In front of outsiders, Ye Sening was just a Russian teacher who was a translator and Chen Yingxiong. Chen Yingxiong found that the people in the club were not surprised by his appearance. It seemed that this was not a fake guy, but he was clearly an incarnation of Aurora, and how did he become a translator and Russian teacher, and then applied for the job here. Chen Yingxiong didn't know it at all.
Most of the time, his identity is a Russian teacher, not a translator. After all, he is now a very small translator-Chen Yingxiong only needs to communicate with the club coaches. If he communicates with his teammates in the locker room, translate It is not allowed to enter, after all, there are many things in the dressing room that you don't want outsiders to know. He doesn't need to contact the news media now, and he doesn't need to use translation.
Although after the youth team league, there were obviously more reporters on the sidelines of the youth team training. But Popovich strictly forbids Chen Yingxiong to accept interviews. He doesn't want the media to disturb this promising player. He was worried that if he chased fame and fortune too early, Chen Yingxiong would be lost. His worries are justified. Many young and talented players have lost their way in various praises and quickly fell because of their premature fame. Popovich does not want Chen Yingxiong to become one of them.
Chen Yingxiong's current life consists of training during the day and studying Russian with Ye Sening in the dormitory at night.
I don't know why, he feels that he has made rapid progress in learning Russian. Is it because Russian is easy to learn? Or is it true that Yesening, a Russian teacher, has real talents? But Yesenin's teaching method is really interesting-he will combine newspapers and TV shows to teach Chen Yingxiong Russian. Especially the Russian words in football.
Of course, is it the reason for the abilities? Sometimes, Chen Yingxiong would think so.
Life began to go smoothly, and in football, Chen Yingxiong seemed to usher in good luck.
The second weekend, he was once again selected to participate in the youth league squad. After being selected into the big squad for two consecutive games, Chen Yingxiong can feel that his position in the youth team is becoming more and more important...
Chen Yingxiong knows why he is important because of his excellent header ability and physical fitness, as well as his excellent performance in the first game.
A good start is half the battle. He knows this very well, so in the first game, for a goal that was blown away, he would impulsively argue with the referee and was almost sent off by a red card...
On August 26, the Zenit St. Petersburg youth team continued to sit at home and face their opponents. This time their opponent is the Smenakomsomolsknaamure (Smenakomsomolsknaamure).
In this game, Ed Wocart and assistant coach Porter once again came to the indoor court of Simina Football School to watch the match.
Of course, this time they can no longer attract the attention of the media. Outside the stadium, there were obviously more reporters gathered than in the last game.
They all came to observe the legendary number 33.
Chen Yingxiong still wore the No. 33 jersey in this game, but he still did not start.
In the 65th minute of the second half, he was replaced.
When he was on the court, the photojournalists off the court quickly pressed the shutter of the camera to take pictures of his strong and upright figure.
When Chen Yingxiong played, the score on the court was already 4:0, and Zenit St. Petersburg was leading the opponent by a big score at home.
This result is quite normal. After all, their opponent is a semi-professional football club...
However, Chen Yingxiong didn't show mercy because the opponent had already failed miserably.
Seven minutes after he played, he blasted the gate of Komsomolsk with his best header.
After the goal, Chen Yingxiong raised his arms and shouted.
The photographers off the scene pressed the shutter again, freezing his passionate figure.
Two consecutive games came off the bench and soon scored. Those professional football reporters are keenly aware-maybe a star of hope is rising!
Ed Wocart saw Chen Yingxiong scored a goal next to him, and he became more determined to transfer him to the first team.
And what about Potter? There was nothing to say, Chen Yingxiong's performance blocked all his doubts. In front of such an overwhelming header, he didn't know how to refute it.
Seeing Chen Yingxiong scored the goal with his head, Ye Saining, who was his translator, sat in the stands and smiled with satisfaction. No one noticed the faint colorful light flashing on his face.
The rise of Chen Yingxiong's killing, of course, was unwilling to end the game like this. He had hoped to score twice in the last game, but the referee blew it out. This time he will do it anyway!
When the football was passed to the wing again, he raised his arms high in the middle. With his outstanding height and this arm, he raised it like a giant lighthouse on the coastline, which makes people want to ignore it. Can't do it.
Originally, his teammates were still feeling compassionate and felt that they were already five goals ahead. It was only a semi-professional club.
But if he didn't pass the ball, Chen Yingxiong's arm would not be let down. On the sidelines, those fans who hoped to see Chen Yingxiong score more domineering goals also followed, and kept chanting: "Pass the ball to him! Pass the high ball!"
It made his teammates stop passing the ball, so they had to kick the football to the goal...
Chen Yingxiong jumped up from the ground with a shout, high above the ground, surpassing everyone, and then shook his head to attack the door!
Without any suspense, the football flew into the goal again. And the defenders of the Komsomolsk team even gave up the jump...just like this, looked up below and watched the number 33 push the football in.
Finally scored twice!
Chen Yingxiong took off his jersey excitedly, revealing the strong muscles inside. The eight-pack abdominal muscles are well-defined and very obvious!
This muscle is his biggest asset. He rushed to the group of photographers and did a bodybuilder's movement to highlight his chest muscles and abdominal muscles. To the camera, he brazenly showed off his body.
It caused screams in the stands.
Popovich smiled-this bragging brat!
He knew this was Chen Yingxiong protesting that he would not allow him to be interviewed by reporters...
After the match, Chen Yingxiong became the focus of journalists again-over 1.9 meters tall, as strong as a bear, scored twice, and has a wild personality... These are simply good gimmicks hyped by journalists!
But they were stopped by Popovich again.
"Please give my players some quiet space!"
"Then you should at least tell us his name!" a reporter shouted.
"No comment!"
"I can't comment on this? Is this still a secret?"
While Popovich was still fighting the reporters, Chen Yingxiong was not swept into the dressing room by his teammates this time, but was called into another office by Ed Wocart and Potter alone. Here, he was accompanied by his translator Ye Sening.
Originally Ed Wocart intended to communicate with Chen Yingxiong in English, but he did not know how well Chen Yingxiong's language level was, and there was a translator next to him. He simply said to him in Dutch: "First of all, congratulations on your score in the game. Two wonderful goals, boy."
Ed Wocart stretched out his hand to Chen Yingxiong, his attitude seemed very kind.
Chen Yingxiong's impression of this head coach is pretty good.
"Thank you, Mr. Edvard Carter." Although there was an interpreter, Chen Yingxiong expressed his gratitude in English.
When Ed Wocart heard him speak English, his eyes lit up: "You can speak English?"
Chen Yingxiong nodded: "Not very good, but daily communication is okay."
As a player, English is indeed a very important skill-in case you have the opportunity to play abroad, it will be much more convenient to learn English. So when he was in China, his father enrolled himself in an English class after playing football, so that he could learn English. It seems that from that time on, his father had plans to let his son go abroad to play football...
"Introduce myself, I'm the head coach of Zenit's first team, Dick Advocaat." Since both sides can speak English, there is no need to translate, and Yesenin has become a pure companion.
"Looking forward to the name for a long time, Mr. Edvard Carter." Chen Yingxiong shook his hand vigorously with Edvard Carter.
It is indeed a long-time name... but I have never seen it before. Otherwise, he wouldn't have recognized it before.
"I want to ask you... Would you like to play in the first team?"
Edvard Carter's words were so direct that Chen Yingxiong didn't even react. He was stunned for a moment to realize that the opponent was planning to transfer himself to the first team!
First team!
What does that mean? It means that I have the opportunity to participate in the real professional league-the Russian Super League!
It means that I will be on the stage in a game that has tens of thousands of spectators. It means that there will be TV broadcasts shooting myself from different directions during the game, which means that the TV commentator will spit stars and praise his goal, which means that when the game is played After the end, he will be surrounded by many media, and the coach can no longer stop himself from being interviewed...
Does this still need hesitation and consideration!
He nodded vigorously: "Of course I do! Mr. Ed Wocart!"
Edvard Carter is very satisfied with Chen Yingxiong's answer-if he is rejected by a youth team player, it would be a shame...
He nodded: "Very good. I'll talk to your coach, Mr. Popovich, after everything is settled..." He pointed to the assistant coach Kul Porter beside him. "Mr. Porter will inform you to come to the first team to report."
Porter extended his hand to Hero Chen: "Hello, boy. I'm the team's assistant coach Kur Porter."
You can't tell from the smile on his face that he used to be prejudiced against Chen Yingxiong...
