247 The Spirit of the Leader [3600 Monthly Pass]
That night, Yang Yang did not let Zheng Zhi stay in the hotel, but lived directly at his house.
Odkelk is closer to the airport, and tomorrow's flights are more convenient.
As early as in China, Zheng Zhi had already learned from the media that Yang Yang had the habit of practicing more every day, so the next morning, he also accompanied Yang Yang to get up early, dressed safely, and went out with him.
Yang Yang has long been familiar with running around the ball, which is almost an instinct.
As the best player in China, Zheng Zhi's basic skills and skills are also quite good. At first, he could barely keep up with Yang Yang's speed, but soon, as the football became slippery, he had to slow down.
Especially later, with the physical energy consumption brought by rapid running, his technical movements began to deform, and he couldn't get faster. However, Yang Yang has always been very stable.
Seeing that the ball seemed to turn into one of Yang Yang's feet, Zheng Zhi was impressed in his heart.
This is the gap!
"It seems that I can only work harder to be able to follow you." Zheng Zhi shook his head and said.
He is already twenty-four years old and has played professional football for so many years, but now he feels not as good as an 18-year-old rookie. As the number one person in Chinese football, he deeply feels the huge gap between domestic football and European football.
"After going back, are you sure to convince the club to release people?" Yang Yang slowed down and accommodated Zheng Zhi.
"No problem. They promised me before and let me go abroad."
"That's good, as long as the club does not set up obstacles," Yang Yang said with peace of mind.
Zheng Zhi shook his head, "I have to go to the Football Association to go back, but I believe they won't make things difficult for them. After all, from the Asian Cup to the present, the outstanding performance of the national team is inseparable from the outstanding performance of the international players who have been studying abroad, especially you."
Speaking of this, Zheng Zhi couldn't help but look at the young teammate next to him again.
At the age of eighteen, he has become the goal of hard work by countless professional players in China.
He is now the leading star of Ajax in the Eredivisie League.
Perhaps it is not vivid enough to say so.
Currently, among the Asian players, the strongest Japanese and Korean players are all playing for Eindhoven and Feyenoord in the Eredivisie, but whether it is Park Ji-sung, Lee Yong-pyo, or Shin-ji Ono, they can only serve as role players at most.
But Yang Yang is different. He is a popular star in Ajax now, and he is only eighteen years old.
The winner of the Champions League final and the winner of the European Golden Boy Award, these two honors have already guaranteed the lower limit of Yang Yang's career. As long as he continues to work hard, his future achievements will definitely be the highest peak in Asian history.
In contrast, whether it is Mainz, the Bundesliga, where Zheng Zhi is about to play for, the Celtics of the Serie A, the Serie A Regina, whom Shunsuke Nakamura plays for, or Manchester City in the Premier League, they are not as good as the three traditional Eredivisie giants, Ajax, Eindhoven and Feyenoord.
Although Regina, Mainz and Manchester City are both teams in the four major leagues, they are all in the middle and lower reaches. Not to mention the Champions League, they can't even play in the UEFA Cup. In contrast, the three major Eredivisie clubs basically have the Champions League every year.
Just like Ajax, who ended in the group stage this year's Champions League, but his performance is still highly recognized. He can continue to participate in the League Cup after being eliminated. This makes them not the four major leagues, but their influence is higher than teams such as Manchester City and Mainz.
The agent Guydo Albes outlined an advanced picture for Zheng Zhi.
With Yang Yang's current status and popularity in Ajax, he will be able to practice well. The next step is to be the four major European leagues, and he must be working towards the main players.

After running three laps, Zheng Zhi was already exhausted, but Yang Yang's face was as normal.
When I got home, I happened to meet Winston Bogard with breakfast.
Last night, Bogard prepared a copy for Zheng Zhi.
Zheng Zhi is very uncomfortable with this breakfast that is balanced with nutrition but is really unfavorable.
When he was in the national team before, Zheng Zhi had already noticed that Yang Yang paid great attention to his eating habits, but now looking at it, he has to say that Yang Yang during the national team has exceeded the standard.
"Do you eat like this every day now?" Zheng Zhi asked.
Yang Yang nodded, "Yes, I hope to perform better in the second half."
Zheng Zhi smiled bitterly in shock.
Such a modest diet is absolutely unimaginable in China. Even in Hertha Berlin and Mainz, where he had tried, he had never seen her before. It can only be said that Yang Yang made up his mind this time.
"They say that the human body is like an upside-down stalactite. Through scientific training, temperate diet and self-disciplined daily life, small drops of water can be continuously refined from this stalactite."
"And our state is like putting a bowl under the tip of the stone. It can catch the drops of small water drops. How many drops of water can be taken? Whether it can fill this bowl depends on whether we can endure loneliness and work hard in the previous refining stage."
Zheng Zhi was very impressed by his hearing.
Of course, this principle is not difficult to understand, but whether it can be done is another matter.
Yang Yang is only eighteen years old, but he already understands these principles and can implement them. This is the most rare thing.
…………
…………
After arriving at DeTok Most, Yang Yang specially accompanied Zheng Zhi to visit.
Ajax is a traditional European giant, and the facilities of the training base are very complete, especially the indoor football stadium and analysis center that has recently cooperated with Adidas. Although it is still under construction, it is already ahead of other European teams.
Zheng Zhi had tried out with Mainz in Hertha Berlin before, but he was still very amazing when he entered the training base in Ajax.
He has also conducted strength training in China, but neither the equipment facilities in the gym nor the professionalism of physical fitness coaches are as good as Ajax, which also makes Zheng Zhi further feel the gap between home and abroad.
Equipment and equipment can quickly catch up with hardware as long as you have money, but the professionalism of physical fitness coaches cannot be caught up overnight, especially after seeing Bogard's guidance to Yang Yang, Zheng Zhi was even more impressed.
What he admired the most was Yang Yang's determination.
Being able to spend a holiday for everyone in the team, I resolutely paid for the money to hire Bogard as my personal coach and insisted on practicing hard every day, which shows that Yang Yang is indeed very determined.
It is difficult for such a player to fail.
Yang Yang also took the opportunity to ask Bogard to give Zheng Zhi a few tips, but since Zheng Zhi was a newcomer and was not familiar with him, Bogard did not provide in-depth guidance, but only corrected some wrong details.
But just this alone is enough to benefit Zheng Zhi a lot.
Sometimes, a word from a professional is enough to make people enlightened.

…………
In the evening of that day, Yang Yang personally sent Zheng Zhi to Amsterdam International Airport.
When the two separated, Yang Yang specifically reminded him to notify him as soon as possible after the trip, and Zheng Zhi agreed.
In the following days, Yang Yang still lived a self-disciplined and boring training life.
Every day is very regular, and it can even be said that there is no change.
But it was in this almost self-abuse training that he could feel his body constantly gathering strength.
It was a wonderful feeling that could not be described in words. He really felt that the water in the bowl placed under the stalactite was gathering more and more, which made his hard practice more and more motivated.
On Christmas Day, Winston Bogard had two days off, and Yang Yang was taken to Almere by his uncle Shen Ming.
Cousin Shen Yuzhu and Wei Zheng were neither there, and Shen Ming and his wife stayed alone in Almele. If Yang Yang hadn't come to visit them from time to time, their life would have been boring.
During the conversation, uncle Shen Ming revealed that when Shen Yuzhu and Wei Zheng's career stabilized and got married, they planned to sell the Chinese restaurant and return to China to retire.
"It's good to retire, uncle, the Chinese restaurant is too tiring." Yang Yang also strongly agreed.
He believed that his uncle had made money in the Netherlands over the years, and it would be enough to go back to China to invest in some small business.
The next day on Christmas, Van Gaal drove to Almele to pick up Yang Yang and invited him to his house for dinner.
This guy is in a good mood recently.
Alkmall performed well in the first half of the season. Although he had a crushing defeat to Eindhoven, he made a comeback in the last round and won the half-time championship. Van Gaal made an indelible contribution.
This also made everyone feel that Van Gaal's sword was not old again.
If Van Gaal was the most eye-catching coach in the first half of the Eredivisie, then Yang Yang was the most eye-catching rookie.
At the age of 18, he was the main player in his first season, with eleven goals and eight assists. How impressive this report card is, there is no need to say much. What is even more unbelievable is that he missed four rounds because of participating in the national team competition.
If Yang Yang made rapid progress after frequent substitutes in the second half of last season, then Yang Yang's progress this season was like a Rockets, which was incredibly fast.
"You Chinese have a saying: If you accumulate strength and make progress, your basic skills are getting stronger and stronger, and your stopping is getting better and better. All kinds of shortcomings have been basically made up. The only thing that is slightly insufficient should be your scoring ability."
"Score?" Opamel Truss shook his head and smiled, "Louis, he is now at the top of the scorer list."
"The data is meaningless." Van Gaal shook his head, "You have to look at Yang Yang's shots. He is among the top ten players in the scorer list, or even the top fifteen. He has the least number of shots and scored more goals because he is very efficient and he will not be able to take off his feet if he is not a good opportunity. This is what he needs to improve."
"Why is this happening?" Truss asked.
"Two reasons are: one is the club's tactical problem and the other is Yang Yang's own problem."
Yang Yang nodded, "Isn't this good?"
"It depends on the situation. If you continue to play a role similar to Van der Mede, then this is a very rare advantage." Van Gaal said this and deliberately paused for a moment and looked at Yang Yang's eyes.
"But if you really want to take over the banners of Ibrahimovic and Van der Fate, you have to make yourself more aggressive and more courageous."
Yang Yang was convinced and nodded silently.
Chapter completed!
