After sending away 14 over-age players who shed tears to say goodbye, Lao Gao looked at the 11 big cats and kittens left in the room and was speechless for a long time. There was exactly one football team left with no substitutions, and there was no goalkeeper.
How to do it?
Lao Gao went back to report to the leader with a heavy heart. Fortunately, the leader had given up hope for this Asian Junior Championship. The National Junior Team, which had actually been established in 1998, had gone through three major training camps and two head coaches.
, the team that had been working together for two years suddenly disintegrated due to overage, which made it impossible for anyone to play.
Lao Gao started busy flying around the country to select players. There was no hope for the players in 1984. There was no one left. He could only choose players from 1985, 1986 or even 1987 or 1988. There are indeed 1.4 billion people in China, and there must be some among them.
There are countless football geniuses, but too few who actually play football.
In mid-July, Lao Gao rushed back to BJ to report the selection situation to the Football Sports Management Center. A large number of young and cute newcomers poured into the Olympic Sports Center noisily. Fortunately, the absolute main players Chen Tao, Zhou Haibin, and Zhao Xuri were still there.
, which made Lao Gao reluctantly breathe a sigh of relief.
Of course, Wang Ai didn't take the bone age test at all. He was too young, so there was no need to go crazy and change his age to 87. Do you still plan to participate in two consecutive National Youth Games? Besides, Wang Ai's age is determined by the Education of the People's Republic of China.
Qualification certification conducted by the Ministry of Education. At the time of the college entrance examination, people from the Ministry of Education focused on one thing to investigate, and the other was age!
During the summer vacation of 2000, Wang Ai's family held a dialogue with the theme of "Future and Destiny". Their children, who were thirteen or fourteen years old, were in school, and the minors were under the supervision of the school. Wang Ai was a good person. He graduated from college at the age of thirteen.
Okay, I’ve come to the end of my thoughts, how can I deal with this? I can still lick my face and discuss with Renmin University: What, you can help me take care of my children for another two years?
Renmin University is not a nursery!
According to Northeastern dialect, Wang Ai is called a "half-grown boy" at this age. He can feed me even if I am poor. Of course, Wang Ai must not be poor... But children of this age are the most tossing. They have just entered adolescence and are lively and active, not to mention...
Wang Ai, a good athlete, has nothing to do but stay at home every day, just go to the house and lift the tiles, but there is also Xu Qinglian, these two little people who like each other have nothing to do together...
Oh my god! The couple don’t dare to think about it anymore.
Wang Bin and Ai Xiaoqing decided to ask Wang Ai what he thought because he was too young to go to work and no one wanted to go to school. He would cause trouble at home.
"I'm going to Germany to study abroad." Wang Ai gave the answer calmly.
"Where do you want to go?" Wang Bin asked after being silent for a long time.
"The University of Tübingen, the strongest philosophy department in Germany is located there." Wang Ai opened the map and pointed it to Wang Bin.
"Why did you become obsessed with philosophy?" Ai Xiaoqing asked puzzledly.
The couple had never gone to college, so they secretly glanced at the textbooks Wang Ai brought back for fun. But it was obvious that the couple did not have the potential to study philosophy and were deeply hurt by the college courses.
, especially when they were looking through the "idle books" Wang Ai mentioned, they actually had to ask Li Lin, who had graduated from elementary school, for advice...
Soon after the family finished talking, Lao Gao organized the national youth team to go to Germany for training. Wang Bin and Ai Xiaoqing also specially adjusted their working hours to go along with them. However, when they arrived at the place, they separated and the family of three went to Tubingen.
University admission procedures. Although there must be some qualifying examinations for German universities to recruit Chinese students, this is not a problem for Wang Ai. On the one hand, Wang Ai and Huang Xin have been alumni for two years, and they often consciously study German and can already read, write, and listen fluently.
Said, on the other hand, the Philosophy Department of Renmin University of China has an excellent reputation. Finally, Wang Ai is not short of money...
The Department of Philosophy at the University of Tübingen arranged for Wang Ai a professor named Klaus Schwarz to be Wang Ai's master's tutor. Schwarz, who is in his fifties, has black hair, is slightly fat, and has a kind demeanor. He is a professor from Tübingen.
A senior professor of philosophy at the university and a well-known philosopher in Europe. Professor Klaus Schwarz’s research direction is classical philosophy. After hearing that Wang Ai has a master’s degree in Chinese classical philosophy from the Department of Philosophy, Renmin University of China, Schwarz was very interested.
I was so happy that I specially invited Wang Ai to walk and talk on campus.
In the quiet St. George's Church, the two of them sat casually on a bench and chatted about classical Chinese philosophy. Schwartz's Chinese was not bad. The two of them spoke in German most of the time. They only knew some difficult vocabulary.
Communicate in Chinese, such as "Tao", "Zhuang Zhou dreamed of butterflies", "A white horse is not a horse", etc. We chatted from the afternoon until the first day of the lantern festival, from Chinese classical philosophy to European classical philosophy and ancient Greek philosophy.
After three hours of chatting, Professor Schwartz was very satisfied and suggested that Wang Ai pursue a master's degree and a Ph.D., and promised to report his suggestions to the school. Finally, Wang Ai gave him the German version of his master's thesis at Renmin University of China.
Professor Schwartz, as a special gift, also serves as a testimony to Wang Ai’s academic level.
Wang Ai likes this ancient, quiet and picturesque campus very much. The University of Tübingen, which has a history of more than 500 years, is the center of Tübingen. The population of students and teachers accounts for one-third of the city. It is worthy of its name.
college town.
After completing the admission procedures, Wang Ai was going to Mannheim to join the national junior team. With Schlappner's help, the national junior team found a good stadium in Germany and contacted the Mannheim Youth Team and
The Aachen youth team was the opponent in the training match. Wang Bin and Ai Xiaoqing were busy with official duties, leaving behind Sun Yi who accompanied them, and they took a flight back to China.
Unlike Li Lin, who is slightly thinner, Sun Yi is a big guy. His height of 1.9 meters stands out even among Germans.
When the two arrived at Mannheim, the match between the National Junior Team and the Mannheim Youth Team had already finished, and it was 10:1. Wang Ai was surprised that the Mannheim Youth Team was so weak. It turned out that the Mannheim Youth Team was
It is in the state-level league of Baden-Württemberg, which is the fourth level of German football. It is equivalent to the Chinese Super League A, Chinese B, and Chinese C under the Chinese Super League, even in Germany.
A purely amateur league. Although Mannheim Football Club is a large and comprehensive club, the level of football youth training is poor, so the youth team can only hang out in the fourth-level league.
On August 20, a group of national juniors, led by Gao Hongbo and Schlapner, who took time to watch the game, crossed the Rhine River, landed in Ludwigshafen, rented a bus, and drove along the interstate
The road travels from Rhineland to North Rhineland until it approaches the Dutch border before reaching the famous hot spring city of Aachen.
After a day's rest, the National Youth Team played a game against the Aachen Youth Team. Wang Ai did not play as usual and sat next to Lao Gao to watch the game. On his right was the fat Schlapner. Since Wang Ai spoke good German, he acted as
With the help of a temporary translator, Lao Gao didn't talk much, so Wang Ai and Shrapna chatted most of the time.
The performance of the national junior team was not as expected by Wang Ai, and the cooperation was very poor. It was obvious that the old players such as Zhou Haibin, Zhao Xuri, Chen Tao and the new players could not play together. There were two completely different systems.
They work together. The latecomers are trying hard to follow the original backbone's playing methods and cooperation patterns. They perform well when they encounter the weak Mannheim youth, but they expose a lot of problems when they encounter the relatively strong Aachen youth.
The final result was not bad, 3:1, and the national junior team won. Although this kind of win is meaningless, it at least proved that the basic quality of the new national junior team was good.
On August 25, more than 20 days of training in Germany ended, and the national youth team was preparing to return to China, and the expedition to Vietnam was imminent!
