Negotiations with Arsenal have officially come to an end.

Qin Xiong reached an agreement with Arsenal, confirming that he will sign his name on a three-year contract.

But the transfer needs to go through a process.

Arsenal need to submit an application to the FA for this transfer, and use the special talent clause to apply for a labor certificate for Qin Xiong. Just go through the process of a hearing.

April 6st morning.

Qin Xiong returned to Wardle Street.

He came back to pack his luggage, and he and Freddie booked a flight back to China this morning.

The next time I return to Europe, I will go to London, England.

The reporters who had been laying ambushes on Wardell Street after the Champions League final hadn't seen Qin Xiong for a long time, and they all left a few days ago. They were going to prepare for the news report of the European Cup.

In the apartment on Wardle Street, after Qin Xiong packed his simple luggage, he took out three envelopes and put them on the table, with three names written on the envelopes.

Rutmanson, Pist, DeKuizer.

The envelope contained cash.

In it are the meal expenses, rent, and laundry expenses of the phone bill during his stay here.

After he started scoring goals for Ajax, he lived a cost-free life here, accommodation, meals, laundry, all fees are free.

The three old men fulfilled their bet last year, but it was just a good-natured joke.

When Qin Xiong left, he still put the expenses in an envelope and gave them to them.

He knew that if he offered them face to face, he would definitely be rejected.

The three old men must say that they are very trustworthy people, and if they lose the bet, they lose. How can they break the contract?

Freddie bought a new big box, which contains more things than when he arrived, including Qin Xiong's sneakers and clothes, as well as some souvenirs he won in Ajax, photo albums, personal awards, etc. of.

Qin Xiong went downstairs with a big shoulder bag on his back.

The three old men and Sylvia's siblings were waiting for him outside the apartment building.

Georgia rushed over and buried her head in Qin Xiong's arms.She wrapped her arms around his waist, as if reluctant to let him go.

Qin Xiong bowed his head and smiled in his ear and said something.Tell him he's a grown man, to be a strong man!

He took Georgia's hand and walked in front of Sylvia. She was wearing an ordinary dress today. Although she was smiling, her eyes were full of sadness.

Qin Xiong was in a complicated mood, and he couldn't tell what kind of emotion he was in. He was silent for a while and then smiled: "Europe itself is not big. Maybe we will meet again. I am on the island on the other side of the North Sea."

Sylvia couldn't help laughing when she heard this.

This is true, but Britain is not just an "island" enough to shorten the distance between them in the future.

Although she was smiling, her heart was also extremely complicated. She resisted the impulse and said to Qin Xiong: "If you don't like the weather in England, you can come to Amsterdam often to relax. You, take care."

Qin Xiong nodded, and he turned his gaze to the three old men.

Pistor said to him: "Go to Arsenal and don't disgrace Ajax. You are our pride."

"If you come to the Netherlands for vacation, you can still live here. I will keep the house for you."

"And my restaurant. You're welcome back anytime."

Qin Xiong glanced at De Keize's restaurant, which was on a wall inside.It has been plastered with photos of him with the three old men, Freddie, Georgia, Sylvia, and some restaurant staff or fans.

It seems that this has become De Coyze's signature, telling all the guests who come here: Ajax star Qin Xiong is our regular visitor.

Qin Xiong hugged the three old men one after another, telling them to take care of themselves, then waved his hand and took his luggage and walked towards the street.

The three old men also waved their hands to watch Qin Xiong leave, and Dekuize's eyes were a little moist.

They have seen an Ajax player grow and become famous, and now the Ajax "child" is about to spread his wings.They did not accuse Qin Xiong of refusing to renew his contract with Ajax, just as they underestimated the ups and downs of the team.The mentality at this time is to bless Qin Xiong!

There are three cool sports cars parked at the intersection.

De Jong and Heitinga leaned against the car door with their arms crossed, and Sneijder led a young man leaning against the car door to wait for Qin Xiong.

Three teammates came to see him off.

Freddie got into De Jong's car, Qin Xiong walked up to Sneijder, looked at the boy next to Sneijder curiously, Sneijder said casually: "My brother also plays for the Ajax youth team. Ball, you know, I haven’t brought him out before, and today he also wants to come and see you off.”

Qin Xiong took the initiative to say hello to Sneijder's brother. The young man was very enthusiastic and offered to help Qin Xiong carry his luggage, then ran to Heitinga's side and got into Heitinga's car.

The sports car has two seats. Snyder opened the door of the passenger seat, and Qin Xiong got in. He doesn't understand cars, so he can only say it's a good car. After Snyder started the car, Qin Xiong asked: " How did you buy a new car?"

Sneijder put on the sunglasses and said indifferently, "I just renewed my contract with the club, reward myself."

Qin Xiong nodded and stopped talking. He planned to buy a car in the future, but he had to learn how to drive first.

When the three sports cars started slowly and disappeared at the intersection, Sylvia suddenly felt a great pain in her heart. She struggled and ran towards the intersection. A turn at an intersection disappears at the end of sight.

She bit her lower lip, her eyes were moist, and her expression was extremely complicated.

She knew that if Qin Xiong left this time, maybe they would be separated from each other and there would be no chance encounters again.

God will not give two people the opportunity to meet wonderfully in the vast crowd once or twice.

If you are not sure, don't regret it!

She knew that Qin Xiong was going to England to play football for the giants in the top league.

He is already a star, and he will become even more famous in the future!

Sylvia has never been able to confess to Qin Xiong in person, because she is afraid and timid.

It's a strange world.

A rich man will be praised for falling in love with a poor man.

The poor love to let the rich be ridiculed!

Missed it?

Did you just miss it?

Sylvia's tears still couldn't help sliding down from her eyes.

......

Although Sneijder and the others bought a new sports car, they didn't try their best to get up to speed.

Qin Xiong was sitting on the co-pilot seat looking at the receding street scene outside the window, his heart beat faster and faster, it was a strange emotion that made his heart beat faster.

Like fear, loss, shock, regret...

He suddenly said in a deep voice, "Stop!"

Snyder parked the car on the side of the street and saw Qin Xiong push the door to get out of the car. He asked curiously, "Why are you going?"

"Go and solve a problem!"

From the rearview mirror, Qin Xiong started running along the sidewalk.

Ned looked at the sky with his head, it was sunny and sunny today.He murmured: "This fine weather is suitable for seeing off. It is also suitable for talking about love."

When rushing towards Wardell Street, Qin Xiong chose the shortcut of running in an alley. Regardless of the strange eyes of others, his eyes were persistent and firm, but his heart beat faster and faster.

solve a problem.

A question that Van der Vaart whispered in his ear when he and his teammates went to the red-light district.

He is an adult, he has a job and an income.

He should have a woman!

certainly.If Qin Xiong wants women, he will have many.

But now, he was sure that he didn't want to miss the woman who would regret not catching him for the rest of his life!

Sylvia was still standing there, as if all the strength in her body had been emptied, she covered her mouth, not wanting to let her choking turn into bitter crying.

Suddenly, she was hugged from behind, which made her terrified, but in an instant.She heard a familiar voice ringing in her ears.

The arms that hugged her from behind were strong and strong, and even made her feel a slight pain, but she didn't resist at all.

"Sylvia. Please allow me to hug you so presumptuously, please give me a little time. Listen to what I want to tell you.

My name is Qin Xiong, and I am almost useless except for playing football. I don't know what romance is, and I don't know how to please women.

I like you, from the first moment I saw you, everything about you, your beauty, your kindness, your tenderness.Your strength, your persistence.Your will, I like it, it's as if you have gravity, and I can't take my attention away from you.

I want to be with you, not the "maybe" next meeting, but a long-term and stable meeting. As long as I am with you, I will be happy. I don't know what you think.

But I just have such a firm idea, I want to be with you, forever!

I don't know what it's like to be in love, but I hope to fall in love with you and be happy as others say. "

After Qin Xiong finished speaking, he felt as if he had become weak and soft, as if his body had no strength.

After he, a coward, plucked up the courage to say these things in his heart, it seemed as if he was preparing to face a trial of fate.

The gradually weak arms let go of Sylvia's delicate body, but just as he let go, Sylvia suddenly turned around. Qin Xiong saw her soft face covered with tears, and he couldn't help but look up. Wiping away the tears from her face with his hands, he could feel the softness of the skin with his fingertips, which was simply a wonderful touch.

Sylvia also raised her hands, and she held Qin Xiong's face, with more and more tears, she said to Qin Xiong a little excitedly: "Is what you said true?"

Qin Xiong nodded seriously, and kept nodding.

"I'm not the kind of girl who would easily give herself to a man, I believe in you! I also want to fall in love with you, always, forever! Qin Xiong, I, I..."

She was incoherent in the excitement, and finally stood on tiptoe, held Qin Xiong's face and kissed his lips.

Qin Xiong knew that she was different from the many girls he had seen in nightclubs, but the Dutch received sex-education from an early age, which made Sylvia not seem particularly clumsy even if she took the initiative to send her first kiss.

In addition, Qin Xiong has been to the red-light district, so naturally he can't be said to be an absolute fool.

He seemed to be resurrected on the spot with full blood. Sylvia's words made his heart beat faster, but it was so powerful that he almost wanted to roar at the world: I am the king of the world!

Young men and women embraced and kissed passionately on the street, their faces were blushing, but they were obsessed with the pleasure of embracing body fusion and intertwining lips and tongues.

When both of them were out of breath, they retreated slightly at the same time, Sylvia put her arms around his neck and leaned on his shoulder, and whispered in a slightly coquettish tone: "I almost thought I would miss it forever." you."

Qin Xiong said softly with a little remorse: "I'm sorry, it's my fault for making you cry."

Sylvia slowly pushed him away, raised her hand and wiped off the tears on her face with a smile, straightened Qin Xiong's clothes, and said, "Let's go, don't miss the plane."

Qin Xiong bowed his head and kissed her proactively.He kind of fell in love with this feeling.

He said to her: "Okay, I'm leaving. I will call you and come to you when I have time. After you graduate, you must marry me!"

Sylvia couldn't stop smiling, and said, "How can you propose like this? Okay, I won't think about it this time, I promise you!"

Qin Xiong looked at the time.It was indeed a little late. While running towards the alley, he turned his head and shouted at Sylvia: "It's a deal! Don't go back on your word!"

Sylvia covered her mouth again and almost cried, she was so happy.

When Qin Xiong's figure disappeared into the alley, Sylvia rarely jumped up on the spot like a lively girl and waved her arms...

When Qin Xiong returned to Ned's car with a smirk all the time, Ned didn't ask a word, but the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.

When Qin Xiong and Freddy arrived at the airport, the plane was already boarding.

After waving goodbye to Sneijder and the others, Qin Xiong walked a few steps and then walked back quickly. He came to Sneijder and said with a solemn expression, "I seem to owe you a meal."

Ned and the others laughed.He thumped Qin Xiong's shoulder, and said viciously, "I'll make you owe it forever."

Qin Xiong said seriously: "I will keep my promise if I have a chance."

After speaking, he turned his head and walked into the airport departure hall with Freddy.

The two ran to check in and pass the security check.Freddie also fell, but luckily escaped injury.Qin Xiong always had an excited smile on his face.

On the highway outside the airport.

Three sports cars are parked here.

Sneijder, Heitinga, and De Jong stood by the side of the road. They checked the departure time of the plane. Although it was not necessarily accurate, when they saw a plane taking off at the right time, they looked up for a few seconds and sat in. in his sports car.

Ned stared at a necklace with a ring hanging from it before starting the sedan.

The ring has a unique shape.The two sides are printed with the shape of the Eredivisie Champions Award Plate and the Dutch Cup Champions Trophy, while the front is the shape of the Big Ear Cup.Below the big ear cup, it reads: Ajax 2003-2004.

Engraved on the inside of the ring is the word: CHAMPIONS!

This is the championship commemorative ring privately ordered by Ajax players after winning the championship.

The main players of the first team all have them, and of course Qin Xiong also has them.

After gazing at the ring for about 15 seconds, Sneijder put on his sunglasses, started his sports car, and drove off along the highway with a wild smile on his face.

In his mind, he recalled the scenes of Qin Xiong appearing in the Ajax team this season.

From Qin Xiong breaking into the locker room to change jerseys to today, too many stories have indeed happened.

Where will we meet next time?

Will they still be teammates?

Or, when we become opponents, what kind of mood will each other feel?

Sneijder also showed an expression that confused his younger brother while driving the car, because his older brother's smile was so silly!

Qin Xiong, who was sitting in the first-class cabin of the plane, finally breathed a sigh of relief, and helped Freddie check the knee that was knocked when he fell. After confirming that it was only a minor injury, the plane also took off slowly.

Qin Xiong cast his bright eyes out of the window, and he saw Sneijder, Heitinga, and De Jong driving sports cars towards one direction from the highway, the three sports cars became small, and the plane rushed into the sky.

Qin Xiong closed his eyes and smiled.

They are going to the European Cup.

I'm going back to participate in the Asian Cup too.

Our journey has only just begun!

Qin Xiong was also looking forward to the next encounter.

More than nine months ago, Qin Xiong came to Europe from the far east by plane. Today, he returned from Europe to far away China.

Looking at the scene of the sea of ​​clouds outside the window, he said silently: Goodbye, Holland!

Goodbye, Liberty City!

......

In the summer of 2004, Ajax created the supreme glory after the new millennium!

When people's predictions about Ajax were repeated as they were nine years ago, no one expected that after Ajax became the king of the country in 2004 and reached the top of Europe, there would be no day of being the king of the country in the next six years. The European arena is also difficult!

It seems to be a curse that exists on the Eredivisie club!

The more successful the team, the faster the decline!

Because the Eredivisie is the talent training base for the top European leagues, a successful team means that the fruit of cultivation is ripe, and will be divided up by European powerhouses, and the club will be squeezed dry quickly!

03-04 Almost all of the Ajax fantasy youth army left Ajax in the next three to five years!

They are like Qin Xiong who landed in the Premier League giants Arsenal. The unexpected transfer at the same time was that Ibrahimovic and van der Vaart had a direct dialogue in a friendly match, causing van der Vaart to be injured, which led to civil strife. Ibrahimovic was expelled from the club and sold to Juventus. So far It opened the prelude to the collapse of the Ajax youth army. Half of the team's players landed in the giants, and half of the team's players played for the upper and middle reaches of the top league. Almost all of them galloped in the top league.

Although the head coach Koeman did not enter the giants afterwards, he also created the feat of leading the second-tier league team Ajax to win the championship, and then led the second-tier league team to the quarter-finals of the Champions League twice.

......

In 1996, a Brazilian known as an alien won the World Footballer of the Year at the age of 20, which opened the prelude to the golden generation of post-75 players in world football shaking European football.

Summer 2004.

Also from Brazil, Kaka, the Son of God, won the world's first league championship in Serie A.

There is an elf named Ronaldinho dancing in Europe at Camp Nou.

At the Stadium of Light in Lisbon, the 19-year-old Portuguese genius known as Ronaldinho shed painful tears in the final and finished runner-up in the European Cup.

Ajax youth team aspires to the top of Europe in the Champions League!

The back waves of the Yangtze River push the front waves.

In world football, the production of geniuses is obviously lower than that of the post-70s. The post-80s players quietly stepped onto the stage of history and began to push the giant wheel of the green world.

This is an era in which masters are taking their curtain calls. This is an era in which football is becoming more and more utilitarian. World football is advancing through changes, individual heroism is gradually being weakened, and the advantages of team integrity are becoming more and more obvious.

But the light of genius can never be concealed!

In this era, there may no longer be bright pictures of masters gathering, but it highlights the transcendent status of geniuses standing proudly on the clouds overlooking all beings!

The new age scroll is slowly being pushed away...
