Chapter 1081: Encountering Someone You Haven't Seen for Many Years
And when Leonardo lost the UEFA Super Cup, Glory had already returned to Manchester as a plane, and Sneijder did not share the plane with him, but went to report to the national team.
The next two weeks are the international break, and the Premier League will not resume until September 11.
Glory's original plan was to continue his training at the much quieter Carrington training base, as he had done at this time.
Every previous international match day has been like this, and he doesn't know how many of those days he has had.
A national team break day meant going back and forth for his teammates, flying around for dozens of minutes.
And he can stay in the club and start his own small stove.
But this time when he returned to Manchester, he met someone who was somewhat unexpected.
This person is not a stranger.
On the contrary, Glory is familiar.
But Rongguang himself didn't expect to see her again, especially at a time like this place.
As he was customary to train at the Carrington training base early in the morning, he met a man outside the gate.
"If it's exactly what I thought, you'll always be sooner than the standard time, glory."
A female voice appears outside the car window.
Glory was surprised to see the face he had once known, but had forgotten a little.
"Sister Mo?"
"I'm glad you can call me that, Glory."
Molly took off her sunglasses and smiled and looked up at Glory slightly.
Rongguang saw that Molly was a little excited, he called the door of the cab and prepared to go out, but after thinking about it, it was not good to put the car across the gate of the training base. So he beckoned to Molly: "Get in the car, Sister Mo!" ”
"Get in the car?" Molly was a little surprised, she didn't expect Glory to be so enthusiastic.
"yes, we can't stand here and talk, get in the car, let's go in and talk." Glory gestured to the Carrington training base.
Molly also knows Rongguang's character very well, so she didn't shirk at this time, got into the car with a smile, sat in the co-pilot, and drove into the training base with Rongguang.
The doorman at the training base saw Glory bring in a strange woman, but he didn't ask a question and let Glory and Molly in.
With the glory of the status within the team...... No, not only the team, but also the status of the club, what happened to him bringing someone into the training base? It's so normal!
※※※
After Rong Guang and Molly stopped the car, they did not go to the locker room, but walked directly to the training ground side by side.
They were chatting as they walked around.
At first, Glory was asking, and Molly was answering.
Rongguang asked Molly what she had been doing in the past few years since she left, and what she had been busy with.
Molly laughed, "I didn't do anything, I just wrote a book." ”
"Books?" Glory's eyes widened, going from being a sports reporter to an author, and Glory couldn't imagine what Molly would do.
"Well, I wrote a book that exposes the shady scenes of Chinese football. Because there is some trouble in the investigation and evidence collection, it has to be ...... Incognito, it's not good to show your head. Therefore did not reach out to you, Glory. But I have watched your game, as long as I have time, I will watch the live broadcast, and if I can't watch the live broadcast, I will also take the time to watch your game highlights on the Internet, you are really getting better and better, glory! ”
Molly was very happy when she talked about the glorious expression, and her tone immediately became completely different from when she told her about her own experience.
Rongguang doesn't know what happened to Molly in the process of writing the book, but she needs to be incognito and can't show her face casually, which shows that the situation is really dangerous.
It's just that these dangers, all of which are gently carried away by Molly with a smile and a few simple words, seem to be completely unmentionable.
Rongguang saw that Molly didn't mention it, so he didn't ask.
The past has passed, and since Sister Mo is now standing in front of him with a good look, it means that the ending is good.
"Sister Mo, what are you doing in the UK? Are you going to be my journalist again? I can give you all the interviews......"
Glory's excited words were interrupted by Molly, and she waved her hand: "I'm here now for something I want to ask you, Glory." ”
"Ask me something? You ask, Sister Mo, I can answer you if you want to know anything! Glory was really happy to see Molly, and even forgot the skills that Debora had taught him in the past to face reporters, and this promise was changed......
"Rongguang, you remember when you played football in Werder Bremen, there was an interview, there were several media together, I was there, I asked you a question. Do you remember what that question was? Molly didn't ask directly, but asked Glory another question.
Rong Guang was stunned for a moment, then frowned and thought carefully, no matter what, he couldn't remember this matter.
He played for Werder Bremen for two seasons, the first of which was in 2003-2004, and he has been at least six years ago, and in those six years, he has experienced countless interviews, group interviews, and interviews, and Molly alone has interviewed him I don't know how many times. How could he possibly remember a question from an interview six years ago?
He shook his head: "I don't remember, Sister Mo." ”
"Hmm...... It's normal not to remember, it's too early after all, and you certainly didn't have any idea about it at the time. I asked you at the beginning, there are many fans in China who care about your cousin. A lot of fans want you to be part of the national team and ask you what you think about this expectation from the fans. ”
Molly stopped, turning her head to look at the glory.
Glory was stunned.
It's not that he remembered the past because of this, he still doesn't remember if Sister Mo really asked such a question.
What stunned him was the "national team".
Over the past few years, he has gone from nothing to the concept of the national team, and now he has his own set of understandings.
He's no longer the rookie he used to be who doesn't understand what the national team is.
He is also well aware of what the Chinese national team means to Chinese fans.
He once wore the jersey of the Chinese team in 2005, but it was not the national team, but the national youth team. He led the national youth team to win the best ranking of Chinese football in international competitions - the World Youth Championship.
After that, he announced that he would not participate in the Beijing Olympics because of a falling out with the Football Association, and then he was banned by the Chinese Football Association.
The national team has completely closed the door to him.
Over the years, he has been in the European football arena, winning the championship softly, and the voices of domestic fans and media calling for him to join the national team have never disappeared. But he just hasn't received a call from the national team.
Because he has not represented the Chinese team in the competition for a long time, the Brazilian side even had the idea of recruiting him......
The Chinese Football Association seems to be blind to Rongguang's achievements in Europe.
It stands to reason that Rong Guang is already the first Chinese player in world football, even if the term "Chinese player" is put aside, at his peak, he is already the first person in world football.
But the Chinese Football Association just doesn't say anything and doesn't recruit people.
The Football Association did not recruit him, but Rongguang was happy to be at ease, but he did not take the initiative to go to the Football Association, lowered his profile and asked to join the national team to play for the country.
The Football Association doesn't want him, so he doesn't serve those uncles.
So until now, the number of appearances of Rongguang in the senior national team has always been zero!
Such an excellent player can't play for his motherland, and the Chinese Football Association is really weird.
Because of this, they have been scolded by the Chinese media, and even ridiculed by foreign media.
But the Football Association was unmoved, they are government agencies, which are directly managed by the General Administration of Sports, and all the leaders in it are quite powerful, and the ridicule, abuse, and appeals of the media and fans cannot move them at all. Only the will of the superior can make them feel the pressure.
So as long as the top doesn't speak, the Football Association can continue to turn a blind eye to glory like air.
"What I want to ask now is, Glory, what do you think of this expectation now?" Molly looked at Glory and asked word by word.
"Uh...... I don't know, eh......" Glory scratched his head.
Molly couldn't help but look down and laugh when she saw Glory's appearance.
Seeing that Sister Mo suddenly laughed, Rong Guang was a little unclear, so he asked, "What's wrong, Sister Mo?" ”
"It's nothing, but it suddenly remembered that it was almost exactly the same as your original answer." Molly brushed away the hair that had fallen from behind her ears because she was looking down, and then looked up at Glory, still smiling but looking much more serious.
"So Rongguang, I'll ask you seriously now - do you still want to wear the jersey of the Chinese team now?"
Glory was completely stunned, he didn't expect Molly to ask such a question.
Then a past incident came to his mind, so that he didn't know how to answer Molly, and after staying for a long time, he could only say, "This...... I can't answer you right now, Sister Mo. I've got to think about ......"
Molly nodded: "I know, of course you should think about it." I'm not in a hurry, I'll stay in Manchester for the next few days, and if you've thought about it, you can call me at any time, even if it's three o'clock in the middle of the night. ”

"Rong's state today is a little strange...... The ...... of the training center is absent" On the sidelines of the training ground, Manchester City's assistant coach Mauricio Pellegrino looked at the glorious figure and frowned at Benitez next to him.
Benitez nodded: "Yes, preoccupied. ”
"It's rare to see this kind of situation. Do you want to ask him why? ”
Benitez shook his head: "No need, anyway, this is the league offseason, and it doesn't matter if he is not in good shape." And...... To be honest, I was relieved to see him like this. ”
"Relieved?"
"Yes, Mauricio. Don't you think this kind of Rong Cai is a real person? In the past, he was too much like a machine...... In order to surpass Arsenal's record, he did everything he could, and he did his best to tighten that string. But in fact, I was worried that it would break, after all, it was fifty, not five or ten. It's good that he's wandering at this time, and it's a kind of self-regulation. Let him go, and we'll do nothing. ”
After saying that, Benitez turned his attention to the other Manchester City players and no longer looked at glory.
