Grass roots glory

Chapter 43 First things first: Prove yourself

Today everyone just got to know each other briefly. Zhou Tiancheng thought that these veterans in the Schalke youth training camp were all high-sighted characters. In fact, he was a little worried that if they all looked down on him as an amateur player, How will he gain a foothold in the team in the future, but it turns out that he is thinking too much.

Although everyone's first reaction was a bit strange, everyone's attitude was quite friendly. At least Zhou Tiancheng didn't show any arrogance when he shook hands with them.He immediately felt a little more relaxed. It should not be as difficult as he imagined to integrate into this team.

During this process, Zhou Tiancheng discovered that there are quite a few masters hidden in this echelon.In addition to captain Hewedes, goalkeeper Ralf Fairman is already training with the first team.Zhou Tiancheng couldn't help clicking his tongue. In the previous warm-up match, Fellman's goal was shot through twice by Jiang Hao. In fact, he might not have shown his true strength at that time.

What made Zhou Tiancheng even more surprised was that when he shook hands with the rough, black and tough No. 32 guard in the team, the other party's eyes gave him an inexplicable feeling.It's not the kind of politeness of other teammates, but sincere recognition of his strength.

This made Zhou Tiancheng feel strange.He naturally has an impression of this big black guy. In the last warm-up match, he and Hewedes were the central defender partners.At that time, Zhou Tiancheng felt that his figure was too sturdy, like a black bear, a circle bigger than the tall and strong Hewedes.Zhou Tiancheng has always been very confident in his physical fitness, but compared with him, he also feels ashamed, he is almost like a telephone pole.

However, the reaction of this big black man is really a bit strange.

"Zhou Tiancheng? Well, I remember your name. In fact, I still have a good impression of you Chinese players... Oh sorry, let me introduce myself first, my name is Joel Matip, hehe, don't look at me In this team, let me tell you, I was born in 1991 and I am only 16 years old this year."

Zhou Tiancheng was taken aback, Matip's age really surprised him a lot.

This body, 16 years old?
I am afraid that most people at the age of 26 will believe it?
However, Zhou Tiancheng is not surprised that he can skip a level. With his physical fitness, he can crush most U19 players without any pressure.

Instead, he went on to say: "Your impression of Chinese players is... quite special. At least among the people I met in Germany for the first time, this is one of the few positive comments."

Matip suddenly laughed: "Two years ago in the World Youth Championship in the Netherlands, my brother played against your national youth team on behalf of the German team. I was there at the time, watched his game, and saw your performance. My first I once saw that the Chinese can play such beautiful football. You just lost in physical fitness."

Zhou Tiancheng smiled politely. He also watched the World Youth Championship two years ago.Although it was the make-up period of the summer vacation of the second year of high school, he still secretly stayed up late to pay attention to the performance of the National Youth Team.He was also very excited at the time.Since the top ten game in 2001, it was the most pleasing national team he had seen.

……

The meeting of new teammates was just an episode, the team's training continued, and Zhou Tiancheng left the training camp first.In a place only a few minutes away on foot, I found a hotel to stay temporarily.

Before renting a house, I can only make do with it for the time being.But this matter can't be delayed, the spare money in his hand can't bear such a toss, within a week, Zhou Tiancheng must find a long-term foothold.

Zhou Tiancheng had just settled down in the hotel, and suddenly thought that this would be the completion of the system's ultimate task. Wasn't the system very active the previous few times?I don't know what kind of mission rewards will be given this time.

"Host Zhou Tiancheng, you have completed the final mission of the system, and the mission mode has been terminated. In view of the fact that the host is about to start his career, the system specially released the final mission reward spree to help the author get a higher starting point, directly obtaining the top defender in the system archives Part of the ability bonus, the system will perform this operation when you sleep at night."

Fabionesta's voice literally stunned Zhou Tiancheng on the spot. After a while, he carefully confirmed: "It means to directly imbue me with the abilities of some top stars? Since this can be done, why doesn't the system directly grant My top ability?"

Fabionesta replied: "This is a special reward from the system for you to embark on the career path. Please don't imagine that you can reach the sky in one step. The success of any star is inseparable from the continuous and unremitting efforts of the individual. And it is not to put these All the abilities of the stars are given to you, and the system will give you appropriate bonuses based on the abilities of the host and the intensity of the game to ensure that you reach an excellent level on this stage, but if you want to achieve the top, the host needs to work hard."

Zhou Tiancheng was so numb to the system's faults of picking and picking, that he couldn't speak.And Fabionesta then announced an important change in the system: "The mission mode has been closed. Special notice to host Zhou Tiancheng that the system will open the opponent simulation mode from now on. In this mode, you will be able to observe the next For all the data of your opposing players in a game, the system will highlight the opponent's advantages and disadvantages, so that the host can understand in time. This function will start from today, and will not stop until the host retires and hangs up his boots."

Zhou Tiancheng showed two points of joy, and felt that this was a bit interesting. Knowing yourself and the enemy will win you all battles, and you will be able to grasp the situation of the opposing players in advance, which means you are already invincible.

At the same time, Zhou Tiancheng sincerely lamented the pissing nature of the system, which makes people tasteless and wasteful. Every routine is always played so deeply, is it really good?

……

The next day, when Zhou Tiancheng woke up early in the morning, he summoned the system to display the current ability value. He really wanted to know how much ability the system had instilled in him that night.

As soon as the system was turned on, Zhou Tianjian opened his mouth wide, and all his ability values ​​suddenly rose above 75, and the screen was full of green in front of the ability value numbers!

Short Passes: 79
Long passes: 79
Shots: 78
Bounce: 78
Physical fitness: 79
Response: 79
Speed: 75
Acceleration: 76
Position sense: 78
Set ball accuracy: 77
Corner Accuracy: 75
Headers: 77
At this time, Zhou Tiancheng still thanked the system from the bottom of his heart for treating him well after all, even the accuracy of corner kicks that he didn't need at all had been greatly improved.

After breakfast at the hotel, Zhou Tiancheng arrived at the training camp on time.He first went to choose his jersey number for the youth team in the future, and Zhou Tiancheng chose a large size, 50.

Zhou Tiancheng still has a soft spot for the number "5". After all, this number brought him his first national championship since he played football. Unfortunately, the left back of the team has already worn the number 5, so he retreated. Next, choose number 50.

On the way to the training ground to meet everyone, Zhou Tiancheng saw Jiang Hao who came to try out.Because he was just a trial training, he didn't need to prepare in advance, and he came one day later than Zhou Tiancheng.

Zhou Tiancheng just glanced at it from a distance, secretly cheering for Jiang Hao in his heart.

Although Elgort admired Zhou Tiancheng's positive attitude, it was the first time he officially participated in team training, so Elgort still told him a few words: "Zhou, although I know in my heart that you have strength, But you saw everyone's first reaction yesterday, don't blame everyone, because you are the first Chinese in our Schalke youth training camp, and Chinese football... ahem! So the first thing you have to do It is to prove to everyone that your performance in the warm-up match that day was not due to your good form, but your own strength. Only when everyone truly recognizes you can you perform freely on the field, understand?"
