Chapter 4 Sharks

Early the next morning, Liu Yang and his two roommates, Wang Hao and Zhang Ming, came back with a pair of panda eyes. They were so emotional that they had just been beaten up in the street, and they began to yell at the Chinese team for being stupid, the head coach for being stupid, and Zheng Zheng. What an idiot, he didn't even make it out of the group.

Liu Yang's eyes were filled with the anger and grievance that only early Chinese fans had. He repeated like Mrs. Xianglin: "Brother Huan, Zheng Zhi scored a penalty kick, and we will qualify. Only one less goal. "

"Bullshit penalty! I want to be a whore again, and I have to set up a memorial archway! It's nothing, the key is that I became a bitch, but the memorial archway was not erected, and I didn't know that I was wearing a cuckold until a few years later." Li Huan remained calm. replied.

"Brother Huan, what does this mean?" Liu Yang and the other three were baffled by Li Huan's words. They didn't know that the game was actually a match-fixing, and they didn't know that the elimination of the Chinese team was actually the result of their own insiders' gambling.

"It's not interesting, don't disgust me, it will affect my mood for a day."

After all, Li Huan put on a suit and left the apartment to go to the development zone to try his luck, but the employment situation in the second half of 04 was very severe. Li Huan ran for a day, except for being hired by a group of insurance and pyramid schemes. I am interested in him, a junior college student in the Chinese Department.Because majoring in Chinese is almost the same as not majoring in Chinese. Of course, if it weren’t for the Chinese major who almost relied on rote memorization, he, who only took cultural courses in football schools before time travel, would not be able to get a diploma at all, even if the exam is loose. It's like opening a book, and I have done a lot of cheat sheets.

For the next two days, Li Huan went to work every day but found nothing. Just when Li Huan was considering begging on the street or robbing the road, Ren Feng called him, "Li Huan, where are you? Come to the Celestial Stadium right now. I told my uncle about you, and he said, as long as you are good at the game and can save face for the Sharks, he will arrange you into his company. The company is so big, it doesn't matter if there are no shortage of people, and there can't be one person anywhere. Ah. I can brag about your skills like a master, don’t let me expose you, try to show your speed, and compare with those middle-aged uncles with big bellies, you are Powell the flying man.”

It was Saturday noon when Ren Feng called. Li Huan and his roommates in dormitory 201 were fighting Landlords in full swing. Liu Yang, who was watching the battle from the sidelines, took half of the money he won and kept the other half, saying: "I have something to go out, Liu Yang, come and play, and the money will be for you."

The other three were not happy, Wang Hao said: "If you beat them to death, you won't play with stinky cards."

Zhang Ming said: "Brother Huan, you are too unkind, you said it was fun till night."

"What's more urgent than fighting the landlord?" Liu Yang said.

"It's a big deal." Li Huan took the suit from the closet and put it down again, and changed into a white sportswear and sneakers.There are also two Manchester United jerseys in the closet, one long and one short, and a pair of Falcon 5 studded leather feet and football socks that have never been worn. It was a counterfeit version of more than 5 yuan. These clothes were bought by the original Li Huan. Li Huan stuffed all his brains into his backpack, waved to the four people who continued to fight the landlord, and left the apartment.

There were a lot of people going to the city on Saturday, and the buses and ferries were overloaded. It took Li Huan one-third longer than usual to arrive at the Celestial Stadium next to the open-air bathing area.

The Celestial Stadium was built before liberation. It is surrounded by mountains and the sea. Standing on the stadium, you can hear the sound of the sea breeze blowing the waves. It is the stadium most often visited by amateur teams in the island city. 11 yuan per hour, 7 yuan for a small game with [-] players, the amateur major league team charges less because of the annual subscription, and the big game is only [-] yuan, but Li Huan just heard that he did not come here to play pass the ball.

After getting off the bus, Li Huan saw Ren Feng standing at the gate of the football field. Ren Feng was looking around in a short blue jersey. He was taller than Li Huan and thin, like a telegraph pole. can be seen.Ren Feng also saw Li Huan at this time, and he greeted him while complaining: "Why did you come so late, my uncle and the others have already started playing with the Sea Knights."

"Squeeze the car."

"Why didn't you call?"

"You reimburse me."

"Fuck, forget, I should drive my uncle's car to pick you up."

"Forget it, don't be an afterthought, let's go."

Li Huan and Ren Feng walked side by side into the Celestial Football Stadium. This year is the year of big competitions. The European Cup and the Athens Olympics have just passed. The national football team failed to qualify and did not restrain the enthusiasm of the fans. There were people running around in the big field and the two small fields, playing football, and even the tennis court was full of people.There are still many spectators standing around the stadium, but most of them are the girlfriends, friends, wives and children of these kickers, and there are a few amateur team members waiting to play. After the World Cup in Korea and Japan in 02, the darkness and defeat of Chinese football has not been fully exposed. The football atmosphere in China is still very hot. Daocheng is one of the football cities in China. On Saturdays and Sundays, players spend money in various stadiums to play football. There are many teams.Basically, there is no free time from [-]:[-] am to [-]:[-] pm.

"That big field is where my uncle's Sharks and Sea Knights are playing." Ren Fengkuang pointed to the stadium to the north.

Li Huan looked in the direction of Ren Fengkuang's finger. Two groups of people were kicking in full swing. There was actually a referee and a lineman who were dressed formally. One of them was wearing the same blue jersey as Ren Fengkuang, and the other group Wearing red team uniforms, the team with the blue jerseys is older than the team with the red jerseys. The average age is estimated to be over 30 years old. Because of their age, their movements appear slow and they run less distance. Under the impact of the red jersey side, there is only defense but no power to fight back.However, what surprised Li Huan was that although the two teams were both amateur teams, and their skills were rough in his eyes as an expert, their offense did not rush forward, and their defense did not just focus on the ball and not on people. On the other hand, there is some professional style. The blue team has a 28-year-old player wearing the No. 10 jersey. His technical movements are concise and practical, and he is not as flashy as ordinary amateur players. In a few minutes, the blue team's two threatening attacks were initiated from him.Li Huan, who didn't take it to heart at all, couldn't help being aroused a little curiosity. He looked at Ren Feng's jersey and said, "Madman, are you also from the Sharks?"

Ren Fengdao: "I am very busy with my business. I am a substitute and come to play once in a while. If it weren't for the huge loss of people this year, I would not come to play at all."

"Who is that number 10?"

"Lu Tao, the core of the Sharks, used to play in the second division of the Haima team, and then retired due to injury. Now he is in the business of sporting goods. Everyone thought he would join another team to play in the city league starting next year? Unexpectedly He didn’t leave, if he did, the team would be disbanded.”

"No wonder, it turned out to be a professional game." Li Huan sat down beside Ren Feng to watch the game between Shark and Sea Knight.

"Don't underestimate our amateur league. There are many players who have played professional games in the major leagues. Most of them are retired from various sports schools or professional teams. If the urban league can really start, there will be more famous players. Retired professional players will participate. Although your speed is fast, football is not a [-]-meter race, and they may not be able to see you." Ren Feng said proudly, his hometown is a football city, and he is also proud of it.

Li Huan smiled slightly, without denying it, looked at the team badge with sharks embroidered on Ren Fengkuang's chest, and said, "It's really regular, and it's almost as good as the European amateur league. By the way, I forgot to ask you, your uncle's company what is it call?"

"Wanfang, Wanfang's advertisement, the city TV station has done advertisements, have you heard of it?"

"Ah!" Li Huan couldn't help touching his nose, thinking that it couldn't be such a coincidence, if he joined the company, wouldn't he become a colleague with that lady with glasses.
