Fame with a ball

Lin Zhigao declined Arsenal's kindness, except for Van Persie, Wenger and Lin Zhigao, no one knew about it.

Warnock may not have imagined that he is currently the main player who is struggling to make the core of the strategy, and was once poached by the giants. If he knew the bait thrown by Arsenal, Lin Zhigao would also refuse it. I don’t know what he would do. Wouldn't that be comforting?This will probably become a mystery too.

And Lin Zhigao didn't know that when Arsenal's head coach Arsene Wenger heard the message from Van Persie, his evaluation of Lin Zhigao did not drop but rose, thinking that he is a player with affection, righteousness and gratitude.

Players who would rather give up part of their future to repay the team's kindness are actually very rare in the European leagues, and more of them are acting with their agents for their own fame and fortune, in order to jump to a higher giant , Try every means to get rid of the players of the club contract.Even among those young players who Wenger has cultivated to become famous, there are many such people.

Wenger's desire to buy Lin Zhigao became stronger.However, since Lin Zhigao himself expressed his reluctance to transfer this season, Wenger decided to wait until next summer's transfer period before making an offer to Queens Park Rangers. Take a look at Lin Zhigao's performance, whether he is a shooting star or has the potential to become a star.

……

The No.16 round of the Premier League, Queens Park Rangers had a good record in the previous rounds of the league. With three rounds and three victories to accumulate 9 points, plus the team's original ranking, they will beat Tottenham at once. Tottenham pulled down the second place and ranked third in the standings.

And Lin Zhigao scored [-] goals in [-] rounds of the league, successfully surpassing Van Persie's [-] goals, temporarily sitting at the top of the scorer list.

Lin Zhigao overtook Van Persie and became the top scorer in the first half of the season, which made the club's top management, including the head coach Warnock, laugh from ear to ear, and also made many British media who were not optimistic about Lin Zhigao fall through their glasses.Most of them used this matter as news in the new issue of newspapers. Among them, the British "Daily Telegraph" used "The Premier League's top scorer: the first Chinese" as the headline, and wrote in the news: "The new round The league has updated the Premier League standings and scorer list. Queens Park Rangers, the biggest dark horse of the season, not only defeated Tottenham and won the second place in the list, but also contributed the biggest surprise of the season to the league: a player from For China's striker, Lin."

"Lin was born in the Premier League. In the first game, he scored two goals for the team to equalize the score. Since then, he has scored in almost every game and staged two hat-tricks. From the third round, Lin He represented the team for the first time, and now he has ranked first in the scorer list in nearly [-] games. Before him, no Asian can perform so well in the forward position. This performance has made many sportsmen Can't help shouting, is this another super shooter born out of nowhere? Given that Lin comes from China, which is known as a football desert, many people were not optimistic about his performance before, but after half a season, his performance has left most of the players behind. People are surprised that maybe in the not-too-distant future, the Premier League's Golden Boot will be awarded to a Chinese for the first time in history."

Not only "Daily Telegraph", "Mirror", "Observer", "Times", "Sun" have done a lot of reports on Lin Zhigao, the media industry in the UK is second to none in Europe, their Star-making skills are beyond the reach of other countries. Previous reports have neglected Lin Zhigao, on the one hand because he is an Asian, on the other hand, many senior sports reporters do not believe that there is a Chinese who can play in the Premier League. Sitting in the top scorer position, but now, Lin Zhigao has done it.So the belated media seemed to be discussing it, and immediately took Lin Zhigao as the headline. This flattered the 18-year-old Chinese boy, and also made the Chinese media who have been paying attention to the UK feel ecstatic.

On December 12st, the 21-11 season of the Premier League has reached the 12th round, which is also the last round before Christmas. After this round, each team will have a holiday ranging from 17 to 4 days. Queen's Park The Rangers were lucky. Their last game before the festival was on the 7nd, and then on the 22th, which happened to have a week of gaps.

However, whether it is the 22nd or the 28th, Queens Park Rangers' opponents are not so easy to deal with. On the 22nd, Queens Park Rangers will challenge Liverpool away, and on the 28th they will play against Manchester City at home.

Fighting against two strong teams, even Warnock felt that the team was lucky enough to win one of the games. It would be expected if both games were tied or lost.

The club's training did not slacken at all. Every time Lin Zhigao returned to the apartment, it was the first day of the festival.Today he had just entered the house with his front foot, but a visitor was ushered in with his back foot.

Sun Dawei.

Lin Zhigao contacted Sun Dawei usually by phone, and the number of meetings was very few. This time, Sun Dawei came to visit without prior notice, which made Lin Zhigao feel astonished and even more curious about the other party's intentions.

Sun Dawei first put a thick stack of newspapers in front of Lin Zhigao, and asked him, "Have you read all these newspapers?"

After Lin Zhigao picked up those newspapers, he realized that they were all domestic sports news, and without exception, the protagonist of each newspaper was himself.Some are copied from the British media, and some are the press releases published by the newspapers themselves. What is strange is that most of the news information is unheard of by Lin Zhigao.

"Except for you, I have no contact with the domestic media at all, and I don't know any of the news in the newspapers you mentioned."

Sun Dawei was taken aback, "Then you don't know that the reporter interviewed the Football Association for you?"

Lin Zhigao was even more surprised: "Is there such a thing?"

Seeing Sun Dawei's surprised expression, Lin Zhigao patted his head in embarrassment: "I haven't bought a computer yet, I can't go to domestic websites, and there are no domestic newspapers in Europe. It's strange that I can know my own news."

"Then your family didn't mention this to you?"

Lin Zhigao spread his hands helplessly: "My parents are usually not interested in football. If it weren't for me, I'm afraid they haven't watched a complete football match until now."

Sun Dawei was helpless, "Then let me tell you briefly. A few days ago, you received a special treatment labor certificate issued by the Football Association. I wrote news about why you chose the most difficult way to get a labor permit when you obviously had a better way, and then the fact that you have not yet joined the national team was picked up by the media again, but this time it is different from the past. The difference is that most of the media believe that you are the best and most promising professional player who has studied abroad so far, so they started to build momentum, using the pressure of public opinion to put pressure on the Football Association, and want them to recruit you into the national team. "

"Just yesterday, some reporters even interviewed officials within the Football Association, wanting to know whether the national team has the idea of ​​recruiting you, but the Football Association officials said that there is no such plan yet, and they even said a lot of you are too young. The performance is unstable. The national team has no excuses such as not needing to recruit you in recent competitions, so I rejected this proposal from the media. Then some reporters refused to accept it, and the two sides started a war of words. Now it is a mess in the country. , I didn’t expect that you didn’t know about this.”

"... Hearing what you said, I wish I didn't know about it. But, you came here to tell me this?"

Sun Dawei shook his head: "I mainly want to ask you whether you will return to your home country after tomorrow's game? If you go back to your home country, you must be mentally prepared. You may be chased by the media and ask a lot of questions. Maybe you won't be able to resist."

"I will definitely go back to China. I haven't seen my parents for more than half a year."

"Really?" Sun Dawei's eyes lit up: "Then can I make an appointment for an exclusive interview with you?"

Lin Zhigao rolled his eyes, "Brother, I only have a week's vacation even including the round-trip plane!"

"Hey, we won't take you too long, as long as half a day, no, two hours. Besides, we can send the film crew to your house directly, and leave after filming the show, how about it?"

Lin Zhigao thought about it, then nodded, "Okay then."

Having achieved the main goal, Sun Dawei seemed very excited.Obviously, getting Lin Zhigao's special interview after returning to China will benefit "Sports Weekly" and greatly improve Sun Dawei's status in the newspaper.

Lin Zhigao suddenly remembered one thing. He felt that Sun Dawei, as a reporter, had a wide range of contacts, and he should know more about this aspect than himself.

"Do you know any football agents who are more reliable?"

Sun Dawei was surprised: "You want to find an agent? No, it should be said, you don't have an agent yet?"

"Well, Robin suggested to me that it would be better for me to have an agent, who can help me take care of a lot of things. Originally, I wanted my dad to be my agent, but he didn't want to come to Europe and felt that he didn't understand There is no way to help me with these football matters, so I refused. So I can only find it myself, but I am not familiar with the place in Europe, and I don’t know a few people at all. Those agents who came to my door I dare not ask for it, so I want to see if there are any acquaintances of yours who are engaged in this profession."

The focus of Sun Dawei's attention was obviously on another matter: "Robin? Robin van Persie?" He said excitedly, "British media reported that the two of you are good friends. Is that true? I am his Fans, can you get me an autograph? It would be even better if there is a photo!"

"I said, can you pay attention to what I said?" Seeing Sun Dawei's expectant eyes, Lin Zhigao said helplessly: "Okay, next time I see Robin, I will help you get a piece of him." signature."

Sun Dawei blushed a little with excitement. He coughed to make his expression more serious. After thinking hard for a while, he slowly said: "If you want to say that those football agents with extensive connections and wrists, I don't know any of them. I know it. But if you want to find that kind of character and integrity, I will sincerely plan for you, and I really have such a candidate in my hand."

"You really have? Who?"

Sun Dawei thought while saying: "His name is Jiang Shupeng, he is my college classmate. So we graduated together. I went to "Sports Weekly" and he went to CCTV. But later he seemed to offend the powerful in the station, so he was fired." Except, I don’t know why, but I’m sure it’s definitely not his fault. He’s also more interested in football, and then he got an agent’s license by himself. He is a good player, and now he is the main force of the Chinese Super League team, but those few players are nothing. After he became famous, he was kicked out, and his relatives were replaced as agents. The commission is already paid, you scumbags, this group of people who are ungrateful for profit!"

Speaking of righteous indignation, Sun Dawei couldn't help but swear.

"and after?"

"The last time I saw him was at the class reunion three years ago. At that time, he hadn't been betrayed by those bastards, and he was living a prosperous life. After this happened, all the old classmates who knew him Said that he was heartbroken and didn't plan to hang out in China anymore. He didn't participate in the next few class reunions. Some said he went abroad to study, some said he came to Europe as an agent, and some said he Just go to sea to do business, in short, you can say anything.”

Young people love legendary characters most, and Lin Zhigao is no exception. A tragic hero like Jiang Shupeng immediately aroused his curiosity. "Are all the players he brought out still playing?"

"Hey, two of them have entered the national team." Sun Dawei said "bah", "The more shameless people are, the better off they are these days."

"What about Jiang Shupeng? Can you still contact him now?"

Sun Dawei looked at Lin Zhigao hesitantly: "Do you really want to find an agent, or are you just talking?"

"Of course it's true, why should I lie to you?"

"You don't need to discuss this matter with your parents again?"

I don't know if it's because wandering abroad makes people independent, but now Lin Zhigao always has special ideas about his own affairs.He smiled and said, "Do you think I can't make up my own mind? Or do you think I'm the kind of obedient kid who can't do without my parents?"

Sun Dawei choked for a moment, thought about it, and compared the reality, he felt that Lin Zhigao really couldn't be put together with the little emperors and princesses in China who didn't grow up. Comparing Lin Zhigao, the 18-year-old himself is simply a waste.

As the saying goes, beauty comes from comparison, and gaps come from comparison. Almost immediately, Sun Dawei felt that he could take this matter as a serious matter.

"After I go back, I will immediately look through the classmate records, and try to get you his contact information tomorrow."

"Then thank you in advance."

Sun Dawei stood up and said goodbye, "You're welcome, you've also brought us a lot of income for our newspaper in the past few months, so it's a mutual help."

Lin Zhigao sent him out.

The moment Sun Dawei stepped out of Lin Zhigao's room, he suddenly asked seriously: "If I find Jiang Shupeng, are you really willing to hire him as an agent?"

Lin Zhigao raised his eyebrows slightly: "You have to sign a contract with you now to believe me?"

"No..." Sun Dawei shook his head, with a complicated expression on his face: "You don't need to investigate his character? I mean, since you don't want to choose those Europeans as managers, it must be because you are afraid of being wrong. Why did you agree so easily when I told you about him? Are you not afraid that I am cheating you? "

Lin Zhigao smiled. He leaned against the door frame and shook his finger: "First of all, I must meet Jiang Shupeng before signing a contract with him. Although I can't say that I can see through the essence at a glance. , but I think I can tell that a person is really insincere to others. And... I trust the person you recommend. "

At that moment, Sun Dawei was so touched that he wanted to cry... How long has it been since he heard the words "I believe in you"?The complexity of the society and the intrigues of the newspaper environment almost made him forget that there is such a thing as trust in this world.

For a few seconds, Sun Dawei suddenly recalled many simple but beautiful things that he had long forgotten.

He patted his chest, tried to smile heartily, and then promised Lin Zhigao: "Don't worry, it's all on me."

The boy gave him a brighter smile back.

The author has something to say: spoiler, in case children’s shoes have different opinions about the recruitment: the setting of this article is that the recruitment of the national team will be put on hold for a while because of Lin Zhigao’s arrogance, and then wait for Lin Zhigao to start There is a turning point in the glory, probably the Chinese team will abuse neighboring countries to break into the World Cup... But it will soon wake up from the dream. --Maybe there is another fallout with the Football Association, but these plots are still brewing, and there may be another change when the code is reached.

Also, the protagonist's personality doesn't quite match the script.
