Junior football dream

Chapter 15 Bootcamp
Zhou Xing was the first to reach the national team's training base in Kunming.When he came, those bigwigs of the Chinese generation hadn't come yet.Zhou Xing was not in a hurry, he just got familiar with the environment in the base. Accompanied by the staff, he visited the entire base and got familiar with all the sports facilities.

After watching all this, Zhou Xing had to say a word. "Thumbs up!"

Really, the equipment here is the best in the world.The turf, the training facilities, the staff, all of them are fantastic.In Brazil, he has never seen any club with such a good field and training equipment.

Strength, speed, as long as he can think of sports equipment, he can find it here, and it is still very advanced.What I have to say is the medical measures here.

Acupuncture, massage, these traditional Chinese medical arts have been well developed here.Every time Zhou Xing is very tired from training, there is always a masseuse to help him massage to relieve his fatigue.Due to playing football very early, there were naturally some minor injuries.Under the superb medical skills of the doctors here, a few small acupuncture points made his old pains disappear without a trace.

In the base, there are also the world's most advanced physical training instructors.Dr. Hanke was hired by the Football Association from France at a high price to help these national team members train their muscles and arrange their nutritious meals.

"Oh, you don't look strong enough, it will affect your football career. Let's make you stronger, like a leopard, and see what happens."

When the French saw Zhou Xing for the first time, he said jokingly.

However, he did.A reasonable and rich nutritional meal list was sent to the canteen of the base.From now on, Zhou Xing can eat nutritious and rich meals, without suffering from those painful nutritious meals arranged for him in Brazil.In terms of strength and muscle training, France is also very good.

Whether it is upper limbs or lower limbs, or a certain muscle in the body, France always has a way to train it and make it stronger.

After three days, the Frenchman gave Zhou Xing a detailed form, reminding him how to train in order to store sufficient physical energy.These scientific and effective training methods have indeed increased Zhou Xing's physical reserves.

"Oh, this is so advanced."

It was the first time for Zhou Xing to receive such comprehensive guidance, and he was very excited.For Hank, he was so grateful that he didn't know what to say.

Every time he sees Hank, he always says: "Thank you, thank you, Mr. Hank." He respects each other very much.

Seeing Zhou Xing's appearance, Hanke was also very happy.In the base, it was the first time that he was valued so much.In normal times, some of the words he said were not taken seriously by the players whether they liked it or not.And the young man in front of him obviously trusted him very much.Therefore, he also did his best to help this young man.

Even, in terms of sneakers, the base also has research.Just after arriving at the base, Zhou Xing was given a careful physical examination.Of course, it also includes his feet.Finally, they also made a foot model, saying it was for research.

A few days later, the staff in the base delivered a pair of the latest football shoes.Wearing the new sneakers, Zhou Xing feels very comfortable and fit.Only later did he know that it had been scientifically calculated and researched, and it was specially made for him to wear.

In the texture of the shoe, the friction, the curvature of the sole and the sole of the foot.All of these have the most accurate calculations.These are the most scientific.The Football Association has never been short of money. Regarding football, they have invested a lot of energy and money.

It's just that the input is not directly proportional to the recovery.

After staying in the training base for several days, Zhou Xing only saw the national team coaching staff and these players.It's just that they are obviously not very friendly to Zhou Xing, an outsider.

Zhu Guang is the head coach of this year's national team. He is not bad, but he is a bit stricter. He is usually serious and has a tight face.

In the national team, all the players seem to be divided into factions.For a long time, there has been a distinction between southern players and northern players.With Dalian on one side and Shanghai on the other, the two teams are in dire straits.

And because of preparing for the Olympic Games, many young players were summoned in the team.As for the young players, they can't talk to nature, which is another new contradiction.

Zhou Xing didn't want to, and was unwilling to participate in it.For this outstanding player who is only 16 years old, everyone in the team is trying to please him, and several forces are also trying to win him over, hoping that he can join their camp and increase their weight.

Zhou Xing was not confused. Looking at the national team that looked like a mess, he decided to stay out of it.On the training ground, he tries to get along with anyone, no matter the gang or whatever.In private, he also rejected the requests of the bosses to go out and have a happy time, and concentrate on practicing in the club.

After a few days, seeing his attitude, no one said anything.

However, on the training ground, Zhou Xing was the hardest one.Whether it's sprinting, passing, shooting, defending or something.As long as it is required by the coach, he always does it over and over again, always doing his best.This also infected some players.Under his influence, many players trained more seriously than usual.

In the team, there are some training games every day.In the training match, Zhou Xing also let these guys who are not good at home understand what the international level is.

During a team training, he shook off the five defending players in one breath, lobbed a shot in front of the defense general Li Wei, and scored a wonderful goal, which was recognized by the team his strength.Every time, the group with him is always easier to score goals.

Cooperating with the domestic players of the Football Association, Zhou Xing also has some troubles.At first, no one in his passing team could catch it, and even if he caught it, he couldn't stop the ball, which made him very depressed.Finally, in order to accommodate these guys, Zhou Xing always makes eight points.On the passing route, he also tried to distribute the ball in front of them instead of their running route.Because, the Football Association guys are like wooden stakes, they can't run at all.

These days, Zhou Xing also understands why many people don't want to join the Chinese national team.In terms of level, they are not as good as a second-rate club player in Brazil.In the Corinthians Club, Zhou Xing is very simple, and he can find many people with a higher level than these guys in front of him.

But, of course, these words cannot be said.All this made him very depressed.He could only hold back all the words in his heart and not speak them out.

Here, he keeps a distance from everyone.On the surface they are intimate, but in fact, Zhou Xing knows that he can't blend in with them at all.

In this way, Zhou Xing's expression and positive attitude during training are also greatly reduced.Many times, he doubted his decision.

"I did it right?"

As a player, he clearly understands that football is a collective project, and he cannot do it alone.Now, if the level of this national team goes out, it can only be the fate of being slaughtered.

Thinking of this, he decided to talk to the national team coach.

"Coach Zhu, I don't think I'm suitable here yet. Maybe I'm more suitable in the youth team." Facing Zhu Guang, Zhou Xing bluntly expressed his thoughts.

"Well, you are right. It doesn't matter, you have to be in the youth team, you also have to be in the national team, no training will miss you. Now you are only 16 years old, and there is still a lot of room for development in the future. I hope that the future national team can revolve around you and truly grow up." Zhu Guang said to Zhou Xing seriously.

"Really. Only now, I really don't have much confidence."

Thinking of the state and level of those guys, Zhou Xing's brain is getting bigger.Isn't it a shame to play football with these people.

"Do you know your current position? You are a national treasure and the hope of Chinese football. Do you know how the State Sports General Administration positions you? Yao Ming in basketball and Shevchenko in China are hopes, do you know? In your There are too many hopes on your body. Originally, I didn't want to tell you this, for fear of increasing your burden. Now, I want to tell you that the burden on you is very heavy, very big."

Having said that, Zhu Guang picked up a cigarette and lit it.In the smoke, his face was very blurred.

"For difficulties, you can only bear and overcome. This is your destiny. There is no way, this is your responsibility." Looking at the 16-year-old boy in front of him, Zhu Guang couldn't bear it.

At such an age, he has to bear the mess of Chinese football for decades, and he has to stand up to a big banner.Can his shoulders that are not broad enough bear it?

"I, I can only do my best." Zhou Xing sighed and never said anything about quitting the national team.But for the future, he is really not sure.

※※※

Two weeks later, the national team's training camp ended and the national team was disbanded.As for Zhou Xing, when the Chinese Football Association made a brief press conference to explain his feelings about returning to China and training with Kunming and the national team, Zhou Xing only summed it up with one idiom: "I have mixed feelings."

The mixed feeling of all kinds of tastes made him unable to describe this trip back to China in words.There is excitement, there is disappointment, there is expectation, and there is loss.

However, all this is a thing of the past.Now, he's going back to Brazil.At this time, all the giants in Europe have opened their doors, and a new round of player procurement has started among the giants.

As for Zhou Xing, he also had to consider his goal for that stop.Which club to choose is a difficult problem.
