Early the next morning, Liu Yang and his two roommates Wang Hao and Zhang Ming came back with a pair of panda eyes, and they were so emotional that they seemed to have just been beaten up on the street, and they began to scold the Chinese team for being stupid, the head coach was stupid, and Zheng Zhi was stupid, and they didn't even qualify for the group.

Liu Yang's eyes were full of anger and grievances that only early Chinese fans had, and he said repeatedly like Xianglin's sister-in-law: "Brother Huan, Zheng Zhi's penalty is scored, and we will qualify." That's one less goal. ”

"Bullshit penalty! I want to be a bitch again, and I want to build an archway! It's nothing, the key is to be a bitch, but the archway didn't stand up, and only a few years later did I know that I was still wearing a cuckold. Li Huan replied calmly.

"Brother Huan, what do you mean?" Liu Yang and the other three people were inexplicable by Li Huan's words, they didn't know that this game was actually a match-fixing, and they didn't know that the elimination of the Chinese team was actually the result of their own insiders' gambling.

"It's not interesting, don't come to disgust me, it will affect my mood for the day."

Saying that, Li Huan put on a suit and left the apartment to try his luck in the development zone, but the employment situation in the second half of 04 was very grim, and Li Huan ran for a day except for being hired by a group of insurance and MLM sellers without examination, and no company was interested in him as a Chinese college student. Because the Chinese major is almost the same as no major, of course, if it were not for the Chinese major that relied almost entirely on rote memorization, he, who had only taken cultural classes in football schools before the crossing, would not have been able to get a graduation certificate at all, even if the exam was loose like an open book, and he had done a lot of cheat sheets.

In the next two days, Li Huan ran to work every day but always found nothing, just when Li Huan was thinking about whether to beg on the street or to rob the road, Ren Feng called him, "Li Huan, where is it, come to the Celestial Stadium right now, I told my uncle about you, he said, as long as your ball skills are good and you can save face for the Sharks, you will be arranged into his company, the company is so big, it doesn't matter if there is a shortage of people, where there is no one to be placed." I can brag about your skills like a master, don't let me expose it, try to show your speed, and compare with those middle-aged uncles with big bellies, you are the flying Powell. ”

When Ren Feng called, it was Saturday noon, Li Huan and the roommates in the 201 dormitory were in full swing to fight the landlord, Li Huan won the money for the meal these two days from them, after answering the phone, Li Huan handed over the cards to Liu Yang, who was watching the game on the sidelines, and collected half of the money he won, and kept half, and said: "I have something to go out, Liu Yang, you come to play, this money is for you." ”

The other three were not happy, Wang Hao said: "Don't play with the stinky card basket." ”

Zhang Ming said: "Brother Huan, you are too unkind, you said that it would be fun until the evening." ”

"What's more urgent than fighting the landlord?" Liu Yangdao.

"Big deal." Li Huan picked up the suit from the closet and put it down, changing into white sportswear and travel shoes. There are also two Manchester United jerseys in the closet, one for each length, and a pair of Falcon 5 generations of broken spiked leather feet and football socks that have never been worn, sportswear and travel shoes are Li Ning's, genuine goods, but the Falcon 5 generation is a copycat version of more than 100 yuan, these clothes were bought by the original Li Huan, Li Huan stuffed all his brains into his backpack, waved to the four people who continued to fight the landlord and left the apartment.

There were a lot of trips to the city on Saturday, and the buses and ferries were overloaded, and it took Li Huan a third more than usual to arrive at the Celestial Stadium next to the open-air bath.

The Celestial Stadium was built before the liberation, by the mountains and the sea, standing on the court, you can hear the sound of the sea breeze blowing the waves, it is the most frequent court for the amateur team in the island city, the fee here is also cheap, the big field of 11 people is 800 yuan an hour, the small field of 7 people is 400 yuan, the amateur major league team is lower because it is a year, and the big field is only 500 yuan, but Li Huan just heard that he has not come here to play football.

As soon as he got off the bus, Li Huan saw Ren Feng standing at the door of the football field, Ren Feng was looking around in a short blue jersey, he was taller than Li Huan, and thin, like a telephone pole, he could be seen at a glance. At this time, Ren Feng also saw Li Huan, and he complained while greeting him: "Why did you kid come so late, my uncle and they have already started playing with the Sea Knights." ”

"Squeeze the car."

"Why don't you fight?"

"You reimburse me."

"Damn, forgot, I should have driven my uncle's car to pick you up."

"Forget it, don't be an afterthought, let's go."

Li Huan and Ren Feng walked side by side to the celestial football stadium, this year is the year of the competition, the European Cup and the Athens Olympics have just passed, the national football team failed to qualify and did not suppress the enthusiasm of the fans to kick the ball, the two big fields and two small fields in the celestial football stadium are running around and shouting to kick the ball, and even the tennis court is crowded with people. There were still a lot of spectators standing around the stadium, but most of them were the girlfriends, friends, wives and children of the kickers, as well as a few amateur players waiting to play. After the 02 South Korean World Cup, the darkness and rout of Chinese football have not been fully exposed, China's football atmosphere is still very hot, and the island city is one of China's football cities. Basically, there is no free time from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m.

"That big game is my uncle's Sharks and Sea Cavaliers playing." Ren Feng pointed to the north side of the course.

Li Huan looked in the direction of Ren Feng's fingers, two groups of people were kicking heartily, and there was actually a referee and linesman who were dressed very formally, one of them was wearing the same blue jersey as Ren Feng, and the other was wearing a red team uniform, the age of the side of the blue jersey was older than that of the side of the red jersey, and the average age was estimated to be over thirty years old. However, what surprised Li Huan was that although the two teams were amateur teams, the technology was very rough in the eyes of his insiders, but their offense was not a rush up, and the defense was not just staring at the ball and not staring at people, it seemed that there was some style of a professional team, the blue team had a twenty-year-old player wearing a No. 10 jersey The technical movements are concise and practical, not at all flashy like ordinary amateur players, the strength is far above his teammates, and after watching for a few minutes, the two attacks that the blue team threatens are launched from him. Li Huan, who didn't pay attention to it at all, couldn't help but be a little curious, he looked at the jersey on Ren Feng's body, and said, "Crazy, are you also from the Sharks team?" ”

Ren Feng said: "I'm very busy with business, I'm a substitute, and I come to play occasionally, if it weren't for the great loss of people this year, I wouldn't have come to play at all." ”

"Who's that number 10?"

"Lu Tao, the core of the Sharks, originally played in the second division of the Seahorses, but later retired due to injury, and now runs his own sporting goods business. It turns out that everyone thought that he would join other teams to play in the city league starting next year? didn't expect him to leave, he was afraid that the team would disperse if he wanted to leave. ”

"No wonder, it turned out to be a professional game." Li Huan sat down next to Ren Feng to watch the match between the shark and the sea knight.

"Don't underestimate our amateur league, there are a lot of players who have played professional games in the major leagues, most of them are retired from various sports schools or professional teams, if the city league can really start, there will be more well-known retired professional players to participate. Although you are fast, football is not a 100-meter race, and they may not be able to take a fancy to you. Ren Feng said proudly, his hometown is Football City, and he is proud of it.

Li Huan smiled slightly, did not deny it, looked at the team emblem embroidered with a shark on Ren Feng's chest, and said: "It is indeed very formal, and it is about to catch up with the amateur league in Europe." By the way, I forgot to ask you, what is your uncle's company called? ”

"Wanfang, Wanfang advertising, the city TV station has done advertising, have you heard of it?"

"Ahh Li Huan couldn't help touching his nose, his heart wouldn't be so coincidental, if he entered the company, wouldn't he become a colleague with the glasses woman.
