Football: When you are at Manchester United, you must score goals

Mendez is not in England now, Mark went with Lin Lingqi, and there was an interpreter with them...Mark can't speak Chinese.

The car is parked in a hotel that is not expensive.

Lin Lingqi tidied up her clothes, got out of the car, entered the elevator, and walked into a room in the hotel.

It should be the presidential suite. There is a reception room in the room. There are three people sitting at the coffee table. They are all middle-aged men, wearing well-fitting suits, with a rich figure and a calm temperament.

It looks similar to most officials.

"[-] is here, please come in quickly. I am Lin Hexiong from the National Team Management Department of the Chinese Football Association. You can call me Lao Lin or Brother Lin." Wait a minute, this is Director Liang of the Propaganda Division of the General Administration of Sports' Propaganda Department."

Lin Lingqi and Director Liang shook hands, and looked at the other man who was sitting in the main seat, who should have the highest status.

Lin Hexiong introduced, "This is Director Zhang, Director of the General Office of the China Propaganda Department, and he is the leader of our visit to England this time."

"Hello, Director Zhang." Lin Lingqi went over to shake hands.

These three are not simple from the perspective of the department, and they are all very high-ranking. The office director of the ministry-level unit should be a department-level leader. Lin Lingqi originally thought that at most a bureau-level leader came to see him.

The highest-level government leader Lin Lingqi has ever met at such a young age is a street secretary. He came to inspect on Arbor Day and had a word with him. The secretary said that the trees he planted are very distinctive... Lin Lingqi has several All the saplings were planted crookedly.

Director Zhang had a smile on his face. After shaking hands, he stretched out his old and steady hand to pat Lin Lingqi's shoulder, and nodded slightly, "Okay, young and promising, young and promising."

Lin Hexiong didn't introduce what position he was in, but he should be the lowest rank among the three. After calling Lin Lingqi to sit down, he consciously picked up the kettle to make tea.

A few people didn't get straight to the point and talk about business. Lin Hexiong was the person who guided the atmosphere, and asked him how his life in England was, whether he was tired from training, whether he was used to it, and so on. up.

After chatting for a long time, Lin Lingqi felt that Lin Hexiong's laughter was getting tired. Director Zhang glanced at Director Liang. Director Liang coughed and said slowly, "Xiao Lin, Director Zhang We and the General Administration and the Football Association came to England specially. First of all, we wanted to meet you and express our condolences. Your success on the green field has made the stagnant water of Huaguo football flow, and you have made an indelible contribution to Huaguo football. contribution."

Lin Lingqi smiled and listened quietly, noncommittal, this was a polite remark, he could tell.

Want to say whether he has contributed?Of course there is. Now many fans who love football regard him as the hope of Huaguo football. At least his contribution is to make those old fans who are about to give up have hope in their hearts again.

But an indelible contribution?hehe.

Director Liang continued, "You also know another thing. The leaders of the Central Propaganda Department want to make a movie about football, so as to stimulate the national football trend and add bricks to the foundation of Chinese football."

The foundation of Chinese football? ...it's fucking rotten.

It's so rotten that it needs to be destroyed, it's so rotten that no one can save it!

An inspirational football movie may be able to arouse enthusiasm for 3 minutes, but it will not cure the root cause.

"Leader, if you need me, I will definitely cooperate with you!" Lin Lingqi said with firm eyes.

A fool wouldn't agree. He wouldn't suffer a loss if he made a movie, but would benefit a lot.

"But leader, as you all know, I'm still in the middle of the season, and I may not be able to spare time to go to Huaguo to shoot a movie recently... If I run at both ends, it will affect my state." Lin Lingqi wondered.

"Your game is the most important thing, and nothing can affect your career." Director Zhang, who has been sitting on the chair with a godlike expression, said suddenly, "But isn't there the World Cup in late November? There will be nearly a month. Should be enough to finish your part."

When Mendes told him the day before yesterday that Huaguo officials asked him to make a movie, Lin Lingqi was very happy... Who wouldn't want to be the protagonist of a movie?But after checking the team's schedule, I knew it was not very realistic.

Because he has no time.

Manchester United has four games in November, and the last one is an away game against Fulham on November 11. After this game, the players going to the World Cup will pack their bags and go to the national team to report.

For players like Lin Lingqi who have not played in the World Cup, the club will most likely give them a one-week holiday before returning to England for training. There will be two friendly matches in early December, and an official match at the end of the month.

If Lin Lingqi wants to ask for leave, it should be fine for about half a month, but if he is not in the team for a month, Ten Hag will definitely not agree.

After all, he is a young player. If Rogo does not participate in the preseason, the team will be put on the bench when he comes back. He is not injured or sick. If he does not participate in the friendly match, Ten Hag may just let him go back to the youth training team and reflect on it.

Lin Lingqi briefly explained the situation, "Leader, the situation is like this. The club has regulations that players who do not participate in the World Cup must train with the team. I can only ask for half a month, up to 20 days of vacation."

Director Zhang pondered for a while, nodded and said, "Half a month should be enough, and it's okay to let them come to England for reshoots... By the way, do you have any experience in acting?"

Lin Lingqi shook his head. When he was in elementary school, he performed on stage in a drama, playing the role of the wolf in Little Red Riding Hood... If that is considered acting, then the actor is too cheap.

Director Zhang said with a smile, "Then I'll send a teacher over. During the preparation stage of this movie, you should also practice your acting skills...Of course, you must not delay your training. You should relax yourself and learn to play. Young It’s always right to learn more things. However, we pay for the teacher’s teaching fees, and you have to arrange food and lodging, after all, you are a coward.”

"Thank you, Director Zhang!" Lin Lingqi agreed with a smile, but he was a little strange in his heart. Director Zhang took good care of him in both words and deeds, but he can be sure that this is the first time he has met this person, which makes people feel that it is not easy. Director Zhang.

When he was chatting with Lin Lingqi, Director Liang and Lin Hexiong didn't dare to interrupt at all, which meant that his level was higher than the other two, and it was still much higher.

To put it bluntly, in the eyes of those big shots, Lin Lingqi is just a football player, not on the same level as those powerful people.

So they treated Lin Ling like this, whether it was asking him to play the leading role in the movie, or they were accommodating him in all aspects, which was a bit too good.

There are very few goodwills in this world that don't ask for anything in return, which makes Lin Lingqi vigilant, but he can't find any unfavorable factors for him.

I have to ask an old fox like Mendes for advice when I go back.

After chatting for a while, Director Zhang stood up and said, "Director Liang and I went for a walk. Minister Lin and Xionglin have something to talk to you about."

"Xiao Lin, Xiao Lin, the minister is too annoying for me." Lin Hexiong got up quickly and smiled flatteringly.

After sending the two of them out of the room, Mark and the translator were sent out by the way, and Lin Lingqi sat back on the chair.

Lin Hexiong is from the National Team Management Department of the Chinese Football Association, so it's easy to guess what to talk to him about.
