Madrid is a cosmopolitan city.

Zhen Shaolong came to Madrid with a feeling of 'country people entering the city', not how backward Newcastle is, mainly because of the population of the urban area, the airport all the way to the hotel, block by block, the streets are full of people, and some places are very congested, which reminds him of Newcastle United's championship celebration - Newcastle is the kind of special time to get stuck in traffic.

The gap between Newcastle and Madrid is still quite large.

Newcastle United is considered one of England's 'core eight cities', but in fact, the total population does not exceed 500,000, and the bustling downtown business district is only a few James Park sizes, and the population density of other areas is not high.

Madrid is different.

As the capital city of Spain, Madrid has a permanent population of 6 million, and the urban area is very large, and congestion in important neighborhoods is frequent.

Of course.

This level of congestion and hometown ...... Ahem...... Six million doesn't sound like much.

A new environment creates a new mood.

Zhen Shaolong came to Madrid in secret, and the hotel was stuffy until the end of dinner, and the time was almost past eight o'clock in the evening, and he was still very shy and was dragged out for a walk.

"Zhen, let's go shopping!"

"It's my first time in Madrid. You definitely want to get out and about, don't you? "Rena's abrasive appearance is really lethal.

Zhen Shaolong still agreed.

He put on a shirt, trousers and leather shoes, and changed his outfit like a different person, and Rena couldn't hide the brilliance in her eyes, "It's like a different person!" ”

"Is it okay?"

"So handsome! Really, it's much more glamorous than sportswear. ”

"Thanks, I'm not used to wearing it like this."

Zhen Shaolong felt a little awkward, he wore sportswear most of the time, except for some special occasions, such as attending the FIFA awards ceremony, or going to some important business events, it was the first time to go out in a shirt and trousers.

That's fine.

"No one should think it's me ......" Zhen Shaolong hesitated, but still put on a boxer hat and a mask, and after covering his face, his security was greatly increased.

The two went out together.

Bodyguards must also be indispensable, he is accompanied by three bodyguards, one interpreter, one is the personal Jenny, and the other two and the interpreter are sent by the Real Madrid club.

It's still early for nightlife at eight p.m., but the night market is already open.

Zhen Shaolong and Rena and others went to the night market to eat some local specialties, and also browsed the Spanish characteristics of things, the crowding wave is a new feeling, he is even interested, go to the stall in extremely skimming Spanish, and bargain with the stall owner, and finally save two euros to buy a headband.

"For you!"

Zhen Shaolong tied the beautiful headband on Rena's head, Rena suddenly turned red and was very moved, and her eyes were rippling, she thought that maybe she should be more open today.

Zhen Shaolong didn't know that there was such a benefit, but he was very complacent about his bargaining ability, "I knew that he was selling expensive!" ”

"No matter where you go, you must be able to bargain ......"

"Just like me!"

Zhen Shaolong nodded at Rena.

Rena burst out laughing, turned her head and called for the translator, pointing to something above her head and saying a few words.

Kaliani nodded in agreement, and he quickly bought back a copy of the same model.

"How much?"

"3 euros." Kalyani replied very sincerely.

Zhen Shaolong took the headband, compared it to the one on Rena's head, and found that it was really exactly the same, thinking about the '5 euros' he cut out, he suddenly felt that the night market was boring.

Isn't this a pit for consumers!

The night market is not long.

Zhen Shaolong and Rena walked around, and soon came to the end, and then simply turned around and went to the nearby Manzanares River, the Manzanares River runs through the city of Madrid, the riverside is very exquisite, and it is good to stroll on the riverside path in May and June, and feel the freshness of the breeze.

Especially......

No one recognizes themselves!

Even if Newcastle can only be regarded as a small city, Zhen Shaolong does not dare to go to the park and the river at night, the enthusiastic fans will take away all the good mood, and he will definitely be surrounded by a large group of fans.

"It's a nice city."

Zhen Shaolong looked into the distance along the river, "If you retire and don't play football in the future, it's also good to live a retirement life here." ”

"You want to retire in your thirties?"

"Yes. I don't play football anymore, I don't know what to do anymore, I have to retire when it's time to retire. I'm sure I'll be making enough money by then, anyway. ”

"That's right."

Rena thought about it carefully, and was really a little envious, and immediately thought of herself, and looked over a little shyly, "Will there be me then?" ”

"What?"

"I said, I'll be there for you when you retire, right?" Rena plucked up her courage and asked.

Zhen Shaolong found that the atmosphere was a little weird, and immediately said, "Then I want to ask you, not me, anyway, I won't drive you away." ”

“……”

That's what Rena wants, but when she says something different, why does it sound so awkward?

She pursed her lips and did not speak.

Two sturdy young men walked over laughing, and they turned their heads to look at Rena by the way, and beautiful women always attracted attention.

They didn't care about Zhen Shaolong.

In the process of looking at the beautiful woman on the side of the road, who cares about the foil next to him? But after only a slight glance, one of the short-haired young men stopped, his face stiffened in place, and he pointed at Zhen Shaolong and shouted, "You are Zhen, right?" ”

"You-are-Zhen!"

"Zhen! Examine! The short-haired young man rushed over very excitedly, and was blocked in place by Jenny with one hand, how could he not pull forward further, he didn't care at all, but said excitedly, "You must be Zhen!" I'm sure of it! ”

"Zhen! You're in Madrid! My God! ”

"You're going to join Real Madrid, right?"

"Real Madrid has Zhen! Real Madrid has Zhen! ”

When the short-haired young man shouted, his companion also reacted, stood next to him and asked a few sure questions, his mood was much calmer, and he took out his mobile phone and said far away, "Can you take a group photo?" ”

Zhen Shaolong nodded helplessly in agreement.

In the process of taking a group photo of the two, other passers-by nearby heard the shouts of the short-haired young man and rushed over quickly, and in a short time, a large group of people gathered.

Zhen Shaolong met the request for a group photo, and when he raised his head again, he saw a group of people, he immediately reacted and shouted, "Go back to the hotel!" We went back! ”

"Good!"

The three bodyguards immediately pushed away the crowd, allowing Zhen Shaolong to leave successfully.

They left without a hitch.

One is that there are not many people around, and the other is that the accompanying lineup is more gorgeous, except for himself who is the focus of onlookers, others, including Rena, who looks soft and weak, are all characters in the upper section of karate, and there is no other drag to go faster.

When a few people returned to the hotel, they happened to see Alice standing at the front desk.

Zhen Shaolong said hello to Alice, and several people entered the hotel to talk about things, Alice came to Madrid in advance, and has been staying at the Madrid club, communicating with the club personnel in terms of signing contracts and arrangements.

Now things are pretty much done.

The Real Madrid club's arrangements were meticulous, including helping Zhen Shaolong find a suitable place to live and buy, as well as allocating a separate training dormitory, a separate locker room, and even a separate bathroom.

This was made by someone who applied for an assistant coach at Real Madrid.

His name was Cavro.

Cavro won the treble with Newcastle United, but in the Newcastle United team, even Keegan is not very concerned, and he is an assistant coach who is not paid attention to at all, and he is not very famous.

Cavro is well aware of his strengths, "I've been with Zhen Shaolong for two years and have been in charge of his training, so I know him very well. ”

Cavro then met Florentino.

Florentino still recognizes Cavro's ability, and can serve as the first assistant coach of Newcastle United for a long time, and the level of training and understanding of football things must be fine, but this level of resume is still slightly worse if you want to be an assistant coach of Real Madrid.

But......

Cavro convinced Florentino with one sentence, "I know Zhen very well, I know what he likes, I know his training habits, and I know some things in life, such as he has a separate bathroom." ”

“……”

Florentino couldn't figure it out, there were still players who would ask for a 'separate bathroom', but he felt that it was not bad to give Cavro a chance, the other party did know Zhen Shaolong very well, and his ability was barely able to be an assistant coach.

So Cavro got a job offer.

Alice didn't know about Cavro's arrival, but she was still satisfied with Real Madrid's meticulous arrangements, "They are all ready, what you have to do is go to the club tomorrow morning, and then attend the medical examination, the signing, and the press conference. ”

"Don't worry, I'll always be by your side."

Alice's last sentence was very sincere, which made Zhen Shaolong's heart tremble.

He's noticed something has been wrong lately.

Alice, Claudio and Rena, as if they were competing with each other, said all kinds of metaphorical meanings, and one by one became much more active.

"That's healthy competition, right?"

"Whether it is a club or a family, there should be healthy competition, competition is the driving force of human development!"

Zhen Shaolong sighed.

The news of Zhen Shaolong's appearance in Madrid that day has been reported by major media, and the photo of the 'handsome guy' showing off with Zhen Shaolong is the most real ironclad evidence of the disclosed news.

The photo is a little blurry.

Zhen Shaolong was wearing a shirt, trousers, a mask and a hat, but the analysis of his body, eyes, hair, etc., was basically Zhen Shaolong himself.

This news is not ordinary.

Although the outside world has affirmed that Zhen Shaolong will join Real Madrid, after all, it is all kinds of 'gossip', even the content of "As" newspaper does not disclose the specific situation, but only says the club's 'inside information'.

Now Zhen Shaolong's coming to Madrid is the biggest evidence.

What the?

Atletico Madrid, you say?

"I'm sorry, I'm not looking down on Atletico Madrid, but they're so poor......"

A Real Madrid celebrity commented on the news.

Many other celebrities of Real Madrid, as well as people related to Real Madrid, have also joined the discussion of 'Zhen Shaolong's transfer to Real Madrid', their big topic is the inside news of the transfer, and the other topic is to analyze the impact of Zhen Shaolong's joining on Real Madrid.

No doubt.

Very positive!

Many people are optimistic about this, "Zhen Shaolong can greatly improve the forward efficiency of Real Madrid!" ”

"He's the most efficient striker in the world and Real Madrid won't have to worry about scoring goals next season!"

"Real Madrid will re-press Barcelona!"

"Even if he only plays half as efficiently as Newcastle, he will beat everyone else to become the La Liga Golden Boot, and he will help Real Madrid win more games!"

Among the many reviews, analyses, and reports, the gray sky in the distance of Madrid ushered in the morning sun.

A new day is coming.

Zhen Shaolong was dressed as a business elite, stood in front of the Real Madrid Club, and walked in under the warm welcome of the manager.

He knows.

It's a new beginning!
