Green Dragon

Chapter 383 Captain Xiaolong
Long Shute is definitely the busiest person in the Bayern team.

On July 7, he arrived in the capital with the team, and after only a two-hour rest, he was picked up by CCTV to record a personal interview. He talked with Zhang Bin and Liu Jianhong about the differences between Chinese football and European football, and looked forward to the future with optimism. The upcoming Olympic Games and the World Cup two years later have brought full hopes to the audience.

On the 19th, he joined Lahm, Schweinsteiger, Müller, Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery in an interactive program organized by World Football. As a cooperation project between CCTV and Bayern, he certainly could not refuse. So they spent three happy and relaxing hours with hundreds of meters of fans.

At noon on the 20th, Long Shute led his team to defeat BJ Guoan 8-0, ending their first stop in China with a big victory.

In the evening of that day, they boarded a plane, crossed more than half of the country from the North China Plain, and arrived in Guangzhou.

On the 21st, he and his teammates attended a business event held by the Volkswagen Group to build momentum for the upcoming Volkswagen South China manufacturing base.

They managed to find time to train for two hours in the afternoon, half an hour of which was spent signing autographs for the fans.

Bayern players are basically enthusiastic and cheerful. Headed by captain Lahm and Xiaozhu, they will try their best to meet the requirements of the fans. What's more, they also have the Chinese teammate Long Shute, who is Mr. Golden Ball. Tedu impatiently signed more than 200 signatures in a row. No matter how reluctant the others are, they dare not walk away in front of them, right?
On the 22nd, Bayern held a friendly match with last season's Chinese Super League champion Guangzhou Evergrande.

The disastrous defeat of Guoan is just around the corner, and Evergrande doesn't want to suffer a similar defeat. Of course, the head coach Lippi will do his best and vow to justify the name of the Chinese Super League.

Affected by the fatigue of the boat, many of Bayern's main players were replaced after only half of the game. Even Robben and Ram were the same. Only Long Shute played the whole game.

In a total of 10 minutes, he once again demonstrated his unfathomable physical fitness. The 8000-meter running distance in the half-court directly dragged down Zheng Zhisheng, the Evergrande captain and teammate of the national team who was in charge of marking him!

You know, Zheng Zhi is also a hero who has experienced in British football!
Evergrande, which has just entered the knockout round of the AFC Champions League, is in a period of bursting with self-confidence. The Guangzhou team, which is invincible in the Chinese Super League and the AFC Champions League, played a defensive counterattack in the second half of the warm-up match. Even so, the head coach Lippi still has nothing. Odds.

Not only the odds of winning, he is even worried... Will his team repeat the mistakes of Guoan?
-
When the final whistle sounded, Lippi finally had nothing to worry about, and his team lost 1-8 to the European champions.

The only thing that can comfort him is... Relying on the free kick of Brazilian midfielder Konca, they scored a goal, but they didn't swallow eight bullets like Guoan.

Evergrande, which is advancing in the league and the AFC Champions League, suffered a blow to the head. Perhaps this is not a bad thing.

The players can calm down, recover their sobriety from the so-called Chinese Kaiser myth, and then start a new journey more pragmatically and harder.

Long Shute is not a really disrespectful guy, but he showed his full strength in these two warm-up matches.

He used the facts to tell the strongest team in the Chinese Super League how far away they are from him...

On July 7, Bayern will also play an Audi Cup match with Wolfsburg in Shanghai, but the fans of the Pearl of the Orient will not be able to see their Chinese captain up close.

Because as early as three days ago, Long Shute flew back to Europe and came to England, which was isolated overseas.

The London 2012 Olympic Games... are about to begin.
-
"Thank God, you finally reported to me in good health!"

In the Hilton Hotel in London, Olympic head coach Li Bing finally let go of the big stone in his heart.

This is a matter of course: no one in his team can come, even he can leave, but the captain of the team is absolutely indispensable.

"Long team, you are too mean to be in Guangzhou, and you have played our team too badly, right? But...hehehe, fortunately I am not here..."

Evergrande defender Zhang Linpeng, who came to London early because of the Olympic call-up, missed the club's previous warm-up match with Bayern. He said this half complaining and half grateful.

"No way," Long Shute smiled and found a reason, "I don't have time to train with everyone, so I can only use the opportunity of the warm-up match to maintain my form."

The players of the National Olympic team are basically around 90 years old, and the age difference between Long Shute and Long Shute is only a few months. It is also much easier to deal with everyone's relationship.

In order to welcome Long Shute's arrival, Li Bing, the head coach, specially booked a table outside, but apart from Long Shute, no other player attended.

In this box, there are all bigwigs in China's sports industry, and Li Bing can only sit in the seat closest to the door.

Seeing Long Shute come in, these people all stood up from the sofa in the rest area.

"Hey, come on, Captain Xiaolong, come on, let me introduce you. This is Director Liu of our Sports Bureau. This may be the first time you have met. In this Olympic Games, Director Liu is in charge personally. Our football program is also under Director Liu. Thanks to the care of the leaders, the historic breakthrough was achieved." The Secretary-General of the Football Association and Director Wei of the Football Management Center took the initiative to speak with a smile on his face, but he did not forget to praise the merits of the leaders by the way.

"Captain Xiaolong, I've known you for a long time. You are the pride of Chinese sports." Director Liu stretched out his right hand with a smile, looking like an amiable neighbor uncle.

"Director Liu, it's a pleasure to meet you."

After all, there is blood that has been passed down from generation to generation in China for 5000 years. Long Shute is not naive enough to think that he just shook hands with the other party enthusiastically but not humbly because of the honor of the Champions League champion and the Golden Globe Award. , and then casually said a few polite words - of course, in terms of age, it is understandable for the other party to act like an elder talking to a junior.

Also seated at the same seat were Cai Pingpang, the deputy director and chairman of the Football Association, Yu Hongchen, the vice chairman and the first team leader of the Olympic team, and Li Xiaoguang, a veteran of the National Olympic team and team leader.

Everyone sat down at the table according to their identities and seniority, and Long Shute was "flattered" to sit beside Director Liu.

According to the usual practice, after drinking three glasses, Long Shute toasted several leaders respectively, and then removed the wine glasses in front of him.

Although in the Chinese wine market culture, this is not very polite, but considering Long Shute's current reputation, the generous leaders will not turn their faces on the spot.

"Xiaolong, your age is not much different from the sons of some of our old guys, so I will call you that," Liu Yueniao patted Long Shute's shoulder when the wine was hot, with a very friendly look. He looked like, "The people here are all our own people. Tell us something from your heart. In this Olympic Games, with our strength...can we qualify for the group stage?"

Regarding the issue of leadership, Long Shute is not surprised, because there is no other complicated relationship between them, and the only intersection is the Olympic Games.

"It's not my goal to get out of the group, Director Liu." Under such circumstances, Long Shute didn't dare to use his usual flamboyance, but answered the leader's question cautiously, "I have evaluated each team. Most of the strength of the team is between equals, and the difference is not as obvious as that of the adult team. At our level, if there are no accidents, there is no problem in qualifying. If it goes well, we may be able to get a medal .”

What is the evaluation of strength, what is the relationship between brothers, these leaders who only care about big things have no time to study these, but they all choose to believe in Long Shute's analysis.

Cai Pingpang smiled and said:
"Since ancient times, heroes have been born in youth, and young people have ambitions. If you can bring the team to the top three, after the Olympics, we will celebrate your achievements!"

"By the way, let's not talk about the results, there is one more thing." Liu Yueniao waved his hand, "The main flag bearer of the Chinese delegation has not been finalized yet, Xiaolong, as the leader of Chinese sports, this task is very important. Can't you refuse?"

Long Shute smiled slightly, refilled the wine glass he had taken down, and bumped into the bureaucrats at the table one by one:

"Thank you Director Liu and all the leaders for your kindness, then I will do my part."
