Chapter 44 Talking With Football

The address of the "Elite" football club in Shanghai is easy to find. After getting out of the subway, take a taxi and you will be there in a while.

According to the information obtained through telephone communication in the past few days, Shi Hao first went to the club to report, and after verifying his identity information, the club staff led him to the hotel.

The staff of the club did not appear to be very enthusiastic. For them, this draft just means an increase in workload.As for which teenager can realize his dream because of this, it is not within their consideration.

The hotel is a three-star hotel not far from the club's office, and its name is "Huadu".He could tell from the name that the grade was not high. Of course, after entering, Shi Hao found that although the hotel was a bit old, it had everything that should be there, and the lobby was clean and bright.

The staff went through the check-in procedures for Shi Hao, told Shi Hao to go to the hotel conference room for a meeting at 8:[-] p.m., and left Shi Hao alone.

Coincidentally, Shi Hao's room number is 1010. No. 10 is the homonym of Shi Hao's name, so this number has special meaning for him.

Now the room number is double 10, does it mean that this room is his blessed place, from here he will go to Italy and the center of the world stage?Thinking of this, Shi Hao became a little excited.

Carrying his luggage, he took the elevator to the 10th floor and found his room without much effort.

After opening the door and pushing it in, he froze for a moment.

"Damn it, why are you a bastard?"

"Hehe," Zhang Yong smiled, "The 'genius' is here too. Why do you live in the same room with me, a mortal, you are so awesome, you want someone to give you a single room."

"Geniuses can't get special treatment." Shi Hao opened the suitcase, took out towels and toiletries, put them in the bathroom, and then stuffed the entire suitcase into the cabinet, "When did you arrive?"

"A little earlier than you." Zhang Yong sat on the bed, switching TV channels boringly.

"How many people came from Shonan?"

"Don't you even read the notice on the website? It's just the two of us." Zhang Yong looked indifferent.

"Hey, Shonan football has really fallen." Shi Hao sighed.

Neither of them spoke after that.Since the days of the Hunan Army Club, they have been enemies. It is a strange thing to meet without arguing, and it is too embarrassing for them to speak kindly.

Shi Hao took out his mobile phone and spent the afternoon looking for a football novel on Qidian Chinese Online.When it was dinner time, there was a knock on the door.When I opened the door, it was the staff of the club who told them to go to the hotel lobby for dinner.

Shi Hao didn't eat anything on the high-speed train at noon.He was growing up, and he was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back. Hearing this, he rushed out quickly, but bumped into a black shadow.

"Oops!" Shi Hao staggered, took two steps back to stabilize his body, but the opponent did not move at all.

Shi Hao looked up, and saw a tall and strong boy with dark skin, at least a head taller than Shi Hao, and his arms were thicker than Shi Hao's legs.

"What are you looking at, you walk without eyes!" Seeing Shi Hao looking over, the man shouted.

Shi Hao was a little annoyed, but it was indeed him who bumped into someone first, so he couldn't do anything right now.

Zhang Yong crossed his hands in front of his chest, and stood behind Shi Hao to watch the excitement. At this moment, he said: "He is a genius of the national name U17. It is normal that ordinary people like you cannot be seen in his eyes."

"Guozihao?" The dark boy was stunned for a moment, "Where are you from?"

"From southern Hunan." Zhang Yong said.

The dark boy's eyes showed contempt: "Hehe, from Shonan? You can also play football? Damn, wouldn't it be more profitable to sell fakes in business?"

Zhang Yong also became angry, and rushed forward, glaring at the dark boy: "Keep your fucking mouth clean! You don't have to participate in this draft, I will send you to the hospital directly!" His size and this The dark boy was almost the same, but he was not afraid at all.

The staff came to stop the conflict at the right time: "Don't quarrel, this kind of draft opportunity is rare, it would be a pity to miss it because of the fight."

The two looked at each other fiercely, each hummed and did not speak again.

Shi Hao sneered and asked, "What's your name?"

"He Chang. Why, don't you accept it?" the dark boy said.

"Don't talk nonsense, let's talk with football on the field." Shi Hao finished this sentence coolly, and walked behind the staff.

Zhang Yong and He Chang stayed where they were, staring at each other for a long time, but neither of them planned to make a move.

I went to the hotel lobby to have a not-so-pleasant meal, and the staff reminded everyone to remember to go to the meeting room at 8 o'clock for a meeting, so they left early.

Shi Hao took the opportunity to observe his teammates and opponents for the next few days.

The more than 40 teenagers are basically divided according to the region. People in the same place sit in a group and chat, and the topics are nothing more than football, games and girls.

There are only two people from Shonan Province, but it is not the least. There are several provinces with no one.

There are obviously more football teenagers in Shanghai, the capital, Liaoning, Guangdong and other places. More than half of the 44 players are from these four places. There are also a lot of teenagers in other places such as Shandong and Zhejiang.

It can also be seen from this that the development of football levels in various provinces and cities is uneven.In provinces such as southern Shonan, it is impossible that there are no football geniuses, but that they lack the soil for the growth of geniuses.There is not even a professional football club, how can we talk about the development of football?

Zhang Yong's temperament is a bit extreme and withdrawn, so he didn't go to chat with football teenagers from other areas, and went back to the guest room early.Shi Hao also has no intention of communicating with other people, he hopes to use football to speak.He walked around the hotel casually, then went to the meeting room to wait in advance, and read novels on his mobile phone to pass the time.

The meeting room is very grandly decorated, with banners, balloons, projectors, everything you need, and a small plate of fruit is placed on each seat.The camera has also been set up, and there are staff coming in and out to debug the equipment.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, other teenagers also came to the meeting room one after another.Shi Hao noticed that Zhang Yong had also walked in, so he beckoned.Zhang Yong obviously hesitated for a moment, but he didn't come over, instead he found a place to sit alone.

Shi Hao shrugged, feeling bored, and buried himself in playing with his phone.

After the 44 teenagers arrived, people sat on the rostrum, and the camera started to record.

First, a manager of the "elite" club spoke, and then the roster was read out and the teams were divided.

Shi Hao listened attentively and learned that he would wear Inter Milan's away jersey in 3 days and play in the first half of the game.Coincidentally, Zhang Yong and He Chang were on the same team, and they also played in the first half, and they would be Shi Hao's direct opponent.

Next, the organizer introduced the team leaders and coaches for the next few days to the teenagers.The team leader is from the "elite" club, and the coach is from the Inter Milan youth academy.

Starting tomorrow, the 44 teenagers will be divided into two teams and will conduct two-day tactical training on the two venues provided by the "elite" club.

On the third day, they will set foot on the Hongkou Stadium in the Magic City for the final contest, choose the best from the best, and determine which 3 lucky ones will have the opportunity to go to the Facchetti Sports Center.

After the meeting, Shi Hao and Zhang Yong went back to the room separately, but they still didn't speak.

Shi Hao was playing with his mobile phone, chatting with Liu Xiyu and Tan Wanjun respectively, when Jun Yingzhi's penguin portrait suddenly flickered.

"Sibby, are you still playing football?"

Shi Hao's hands were fast, and he quickly replied: "Nonsense, if I don't play football this day, it will be a loss for the Chinese team."

"Fart's loss, even if you enter the national team, you are still Lao Tzu's substitute."

"You are so stupid, we are in different positions."

"Stop talking, I'm tired from training and I'm going to bed. By the way, I won't be going to Inter Milan."

Shi Hao hurriedly sent a message: "Then will you transfer this year?"

"Wait for the news."

"Look at your size, don't pretend to be aggressive in front of me, tell me quickly, where did you transfer to?" After Shi Hao sent this message, Jun Yingzhi didn't reply, probably because he was offline.

That bastard... Shi Hao was in a daze.He noticed that Jun Yingzhi used the words "I will not go to Inter Milan", which means that it is very likely that Inter Milan really extended an invitation to him, but he refused out of some considerations.

I really have to speed up, otherwise I will be left far behind by that bastard.
