001 Qin Xiong
Jiangcheng is a small city. Because the city has river water that supplies resources throughout the province, the city's development plan is strictly restricted. Everyone here knows that even if the province spends money to maintain Jiangcheng every year, Jiangcheng is not allowed to be industrialized, and excessive commercialization is strictly prohibited.
Urban greening is the top priority, and environmental protection is also the top priority. Therefore, the scenery here is picturesque and the mild climate environment has made Jiangcheng a famous retirement city in China, rather than a place where young people are willing to gain a stunning future. The pace of life here is so slow that young people are indifferent.
The sunset was setting, on the other side of the riverside, on the slope of the river embankment, a young man bent his knees and sat on the slope of the green grass. He placed his painting book on his thigh, and his right hand used a pencil to quickly outline the sunset scene in front of him on the painting book.
The green space below the slope is a shared football field. At this time, two teams are playing entertainment games, watching the clothes of both sides. They are famous "Manchester United" and "Real Madrid". One red and the other white are obviously the two mainstream colors of European football.
Of course, it is impossible for England's Red Devils to come to the small city of Jiangcheng, especially two months ago, the number one star affiliated with Manchester United and even the most eye-catching superstar on this planet, Beckham broke with his mentor Ferguson due to the flying boot gate, and finally turned to Real Madrid, where superstars gathered. The Spanish white giant Real Madrid Galaxy battleship officially set sail!
Jiang Cheng cannot afford these two teams.
It was obviously the local teenager who loved two world-class giants and chose to wear the jerseys of the Red Devils and the Galaxy Battleship.
The young man sitting on the slope was doing a simple sketch. The lower half of the picture outlined the nearby court, the two teams playing football, and the long distance were continuous towering green mountains. The upper half of the picture looked normal. The sunset glow and soft light made people feel refreshed. If the picture just ended here, then this sketch could be regarded as a masterpiece.
However, above the clouds, the young man was depicting a scene that did not exist in front of him: a hideous blue dragon!
The green dragon overlooks the world, as hideous as a demon, as if symbolizing bad luck and disaster, and is eyeing the world!
The young man's right hand holding the pen became faster and faster. The pencil tip was constantly increasing the dark black color on Qinglong's body. His eyes were full of persistence, as if he was full of devils.
A shout brought him back to reality.
"Brother, please help me!"
The young man looked up and saw a dirty football under the slope. The players on the court in the distance were looking at him and waved, hoping that he could help kick the ball to them so that they would not run out to pick up the ball and waste their energy.
The young man who came to his senses put the painting and pencil in his casual bag and stood up. At this time, the teenagers who were playing football in the distance noticed that this stranger who had been sitting on the slope for a long time, had a slender figure and looked from a distance, which made many men envious.
The young man dressed in sportswear walked down the slope, gently stepped on the football with his right foot in his sneakers, and looked at the goal on the left side of the court from afar. It was about 100 meters away. The young man kicked the football forward with his right foot, then stepped forward with his left leg, supporting his body with his left foot, and pulling his right leg backward, like a full moon arch, a picture that brightened the eyes of a teenager in the distance appeared in front of him.
It’s too standard or too smooth and natural. The stranger’s playing football posture is particularly pleasing to the eye.
Bang!
The young man kicked the football on the inside of his right foot, and the inner instep exerted force. When the football flew into the air, it rotated violently, and a curve that seemed to cut through the sky suddenly appeared.
The teenagers on the court opened their eyes wide and looked up at the sky collectively, capturing the trajectory of the football.
那个弧度,令他们吃惊!
香蕉球!
可是,这是要踢去哪里呢?
When the football flies in the sky, it sometimes presents a beautiful and unpredictable picture.
The football kicked by this strange young man fell rapidly after passing a large arc in the sky and flew straight into the goal on the left side of the court!
The goalkeeper standing in front of the goal was not responding. At the first moment, he had a premonition that the ball was flying towards him, but the arc of the football was too large, and the acceleration after the fall caught him off guard. The angle of the football flew into the goal was not tricky, just around him, but he was affected by his panic and almost staggered to the ground.
Except for this goalkeeper, everyone else was stunned!
You know, the strange young man was diagonally facing the goal. The angle of the goal was compressed and reduced, and it was still a distance of nearly a hundred meters!
When they were shocked and looked for the figure of the young man, they found that on the side of the road above the slope, the young man walked away with his shoulder bag and his hands in his pocket.
The teenager who reacted immediately shouted: "Hey, are you Qin Xiong?"
The young man who was gradually moving away on the sidewalk did not look back or respond.
"It must be him! It must be him! No one in Jiangcheng can do such a cool thing with football except him!"
“看身材,可能真是他!”
"My God! He has been sitting there just now, always sitting there! He should really take a photo with him, the prince of Chinese football!"
On the court, the distracted teenagers gathered together to discuss and talked in great interest.
In 2002, the Chinese team returned from a crushing defeat in the South Korea-Japan World Cup. The Korean team, which was fighting locally, advanced to the semi-finals of four historic progress, and the Japanese team also entered the semi-finals of 16. The team representing Asia performed well. Although the achievements of the South Korean team were extremely controversial, in comparison, the Chinese team could not raise their heads in front of South Korea and Japan no matter what.
At the end of 2002, a U18 China-Korea confrontation was held in Busan. It was a friendly match that Chinese private companies convened players and the Korean Football Association. In this game, the U18 Chinese team defeated the U18 South Korea team 3:1.
In the first half of 2003, the same U18 Chinese team rushed to Tokyo, Japan, and a private company contacted the Japanese Football Association and finalized a U18 friendly match. In that game, the U18 Chinese team defeated the U18 Japanese team 4:0.
In these two games, the player who served as the captain of the U18 Chinese team was Qin Xiong, who was only 17 years old!
Although the popularity and influence of these two games are not high, under the attention of many interested people, especially those who love football in Jiangcheng, know that it was a friendly match for the Down Group to contact. Most of the players representing China, Qin Xiong, from the Youth Football House of Jiangcheng, is a native of Jiangcheng. After two exciting victories, Qin Xiong, who served as the captain and played the role of leader, was praised by Jiangcheng fans as the prince of Chinese football!
They are waiting for Qin Xiong's next development, should they take off in China or choose to study abroad? Now, he is the prince. When he grows up, will he become the emperor of Chinese football?
Especially the teenagers who love football, while admiring Qin Xiong, are eagerly looking forward to the arrival of the day when he ascends the throne!
The young man who left the river bank by the river walked towards the north of the city. Half an hour later, the end of the road beneath his feet was the end of his way home: Jiangcheng Youth Football Home.
This is the industry of the Down Group, with a history of nearly 20 years. At first, the outside world only thought it was an orphanage. It was officially listed as a youth football training base ten years ago. It covers a small area, like a slightly larger middle school, with dormitories, restaurants, gyms, medical rooms, four football fields, etc. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.
The young man started jogging towards his destination. When he ran into the gate, he smiled with the guard. The guard watched the young man leave with a kind smile, sighing in his heart: It's so good to be young!
The young man ran to the dormitory, and his residence was different from other teenagers. More than 90% of the teenagers here lived in collective dormitory buildings, while he was in an independent apartment.
On the building of his apartment, living opposite him was a foreigner named Kyle Freddy, a gentlemanly British man who was just 40 years old this year. He knew the young man for eleven years and took care of him for eleven years as his guardian.
At this time, Freddy was standing on the balcony on the third floor reading a book. When he saw the young man jogging from the road next to the restaurant in the distance, he immediately put down the book and placed it on a camera supported by a tripod next to him. The place where the lens was aimed at was the relatively open road downstairs. He pressed the video key and then shouted to the young man from a high place: "Qin, run, run, run! Quick, hurry, hurry!"
The young man who was jogging took off his shoulder bag and threw it on the ground, and then his running speed suddenly accelerated. If outsiders noticed, the place where he started to accelerate was exactly the edge of the small flower bed in front of the building, and the road leading to the bottom of the apartment building was exactly 30 meters long!
The running young man was fast and his eyes were firm, just like a cheetah galloping across the grassland!
As if a gust of wind passed by, the young man passed the flower bed and came to the front of the building, then slowed down, and then trotted back slowly to pick up his shoulder bag and headed towards the apartment building.
Freddy on the balcony upstairs walked to watch the recorded scene with a smile, repeatedly determining the speed of the young man's 30-meter sprint.
When he confirmed that the youth sprinted a little faster than before, yes, it was only 0.09 seconds to improve, but he still showed obvious joy.
I often hear the description of the speed of football players as how fast it is 100 meters. In fact, this is one-sided, because on the football field, the sprint at critical moments is usually 20 meters-30 meters!
What really determines success or failure at the critical moment is speed only the basis, explosive power and acceleration are more critical!
Freddy walked back into the room, took out a notebook on the bookshelf of his study, turned to the latest page, and recorded the date and the precise time of the youth's 30-meter sprint.
On the bookshelf filled with notebooks, ordinary people may not be able to imagine that this is Freddy's accumulated work over ten years. The content of each notebook is all about recording or analyzing the growth and football-related data of that young man.
After putting down the notebook, Freddy walked out of the house and happened to see the young man opening his door with a shoulder bag. Freddy smiled and said hello: "Hi, Qin Xiong, where did you go today? Are there any romantic encounters?"
His Chinese is so slick!
However, Qin Xiong seemed in a bad mood. He did not answer and went straight into his room after opening the door.
Chapter completed!
