Chapter 245: Are You Chinese?
When the teenagers started training the next day, they were still talking about yesterday evening's game.
Every football teenager has a heroic dream, dreaming of becoming a big hero like Gao Zheng who makes tens of thousands of people worship.
In the past, this was just a dream, but Gao Zheng showed their dream for them.
Let them have a clear goal to strive for and a clear and visible reference.
In the past, there were always people who said that "yellow people are not suitable for football" and "Chinese are not united, so the results of collective sports are not good, but the table tennis and badminton that fight alone have better results"......
But now Gao Zheng slapped the person who said this.
Who said that Chinese can't play well? Who said that the Chinese are scattered?
The teenagers were excited, and they couldn't wait to become someone like Gao Zheng tomorrow.
Lin Yuan met the Asian teenager who was competing with him that day on the training ground.
The young man stared at him, opened his mouth and asked in Chinese that Lin Yuan could understand, "Why can Gao Zheng call your name?" ”
Lin Yuan was surprised: "Aren't you Japanese?" ”
The Asian teenager was furious: "You're Japanese, your whole family is Japanese!" ”
"You're not Korean either?"
"You're the stick! Your whole family is a stick! I'm Chinese! ”
Lin Yuan was even more strange: "You are Chinese, why are you in a group with so many Spaniards?" ”
Dong Jin only remembered that his nationality was Spanish at this time, so he said a little depressedly: "Uh...... My mom is Chinese......."
Lin Yuan suddenly realized: "You are not Chinese......"
"I am!" Dong Jin glared.
Lin Yuan shook his head: "No, you're not." I'm Chinese. ”
"Am I any different from you?" Dong Jin stared at Lin Yuan and asked.
Lin Yuan couldn't say it for a while, but he suddenly thought of something, so he puffed up his chest and said, "I am a citizen of the People's Republic of China!" What about you? ”
"What?" Dong Jin was dumbfounded. His nationality is Spanish...... So he sobbed, "I am...... Chinese ......"
"Then you are not Chinese." Lin Yuan insisted on his own point of view.
"I am! My mother said that as long as you identify with Chinese culture, you are all Chinese! Dong Jin retorted.
Lin Yuan smiled: "Then if we all play for the national team in the future, which country do you represent?" ”
Dong Jin was dumbfounded and couldn't answer.
Yes, he said he was Chinese, but China didn't recognize it...... If he does have a chance to join the national team in the future, he is a Spanish citizen and should join the Spanish national team. Since they are all players of the Spanish national team, what is the point of saying that they are Chinese?
Seeing that Dong Jin was stunned and speechless, Lin Yuan smiled: "When the time comes, we'll see you on the court, I will defeat you!" ”
After saying that, he ignored Dong Jin and went straight to the training ground.
Dong Jin turned to stare at his back, and for the first time had huge doubts about his identity.
At home, his mother and grandfather always said that he was Chinese, taught him to speak Chinese, learned Tang poetry and Song lyrics, and although he went to school with Spanish children and played football together, he always felt that he was a Chinese and different from them.
As a result, when I met a real Chinese today, I realized that I was not the same as these Chinese......
So are you Spanish or Chinese?

After the training, Dong Jin went home to see his mother, she was still busy greeting guests in the front hall, even if she saw her son, she just smiled at him and said, "Ah Jin is back." ”
Then I went to deliver the food with the plate.
Ah Gong was naturally busy in the kitchen at this time.
When her mother returned, Dong Jin took her hand: "Mom, am I Chinese?" ”
"Why not, of course it is!" The mother looked at her son strangely, wondering why he asked.
"What if I play out and want to join the Spanish national team?"
The mother didn't expect her son to ask such a question, but he didn't have time to think about why his son asked like this, so she touched her son's head and replied in the simplest way: "It doesn't matter what nationality you are, you just need to think that you are Chinese...... Go and do your homework, don't delay your studies! ”
After saying that, she hurried away again, busy greeting the new guests.
Dong Jin didn't get a satisfactory answer from his mother, he frowned and dragged his schoolbag upstairs.
He then climbed out of the attic on his hands and feet, and sat cross-legged on the small square platform where he usually "listened" to the game. He propped his chin in his hand and fell into deep thought.
He didn't understand why his mother would say that he was Chinese since he was not a Chinese national.
I feel like I'm Chinese, but those kids who really come from China don't seem to recognize themselves as "Chinese......
And that person is right, if one day, he really joins the Spanish national team and meets the Chinese team on the field, how should he deal with himself? Isn't he Chinese? Why did it become the opponent of the Chinese team?

Dong Jin thought about it all night and didn't understand this question, he wanted to ask Gao Zheng, as his idol, he felt that Gao Zheng would definitely be able to help him solve his doubts.
However, he didn't have to go to Mahada Onda to train today, but he still took the bus to the Atletico Madrid training base after class, where he waited for Gao Zheng outside.
There have been a lot of fans gathered here, and Dong Jin is very inconspicuous among them, like one of them.
When the training session was over, the players drove away.
At this time, the fans will go up to stop their favorite player, ask him for an autograph, take a group photo, and it would be even better if they could still have a few words.
At this time, you can see who is the favorite in the Atletico Madrid team.
That, of course, is Gao Zheng.
When Gao Zheng's car came out, he was blocked by a group of fans, and he rolled down the window while sitting in the co-pilot to meet the fans' request for autographs and photos.
He is very skilled in signing all kinds of things handed to each fan, and every time he signs a name, he looks up at the camera or mobile phone in the fan's hand and smiles, and completes the photo with the selfie fan.
When Dong Jin squeezed in front of him, he neither sent anything asking for an autograph, nor did he ask for a group photo.
This made Gao Zheng, who was used to this rhythm, not very adaptable, and after he saw who was coming, he smiled: "Yo, why are you here?" ”
Dong Jin frowned and said, "I have a problem......
"What's the problem?"
So Dong Jin told Gao Zheng about his troubles, and Gao Zheng was happy when he heard it: "What should I do...... You're thinking too much now, aren't you? ”
Dong Jin came to Gao Zheng to solve his doubts, but he didn't expect Gao Zheng to laugh when he heard his words, he was a little confused: "Where do you think too much......"
"You're just getting into the echelon, aren't you? Before the start of my career, I was thinking about the national team one by one, isn't this thinking too much? Wait until you can play in the professional league first......" Gao Zheng waved his hand, very unimpressed. "You guys, you're still 108,000 miles away from the national team! Just kick the ball right now, the rest is none of your business. Isn't it okay to Chinese and play well......"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone squeezed up behind Dong Jin again, handed Gao Zheng a postcard, asked Gao Zheng to sign it, and someone squeezed over with a camera to take a photo with Gao Zheng.
As for Dong Jin, he was squeezed out.
Dong Jin, who was standing outside the crowd, scratched his head and recalled what Gao Zheng said in his mind.
Gao Zheng seems to be right...... Isn't the most important thing now to gain a foothold in the echelon and get ahead?
Whether you are Chinese or not, it doesn't seem to matter if others admit your identity or not......
After thinking about this, Dong Jin realized that what he should do now is to defeat that kid named Lin Yuan, which is the top priority!
