Chapter 222 The future of Bucks Steel Horns teammates! Honami: Oh no!
By the time Gu Ran repaired the Cayenne's front hood and returned home, it was already past 8 p.m.
Gu Ran ate something casually, and then used the liquid nitrogen freezing capsule and sauna therapy to relieve the fatigue of the day.
With 76 physical points and 73 physical points, Gu Ran's recovery speed is very fast.
Coupled with Gregory's professional fascia knife technique and the ice and fire physical therapy equipment at home, Gu Ran recovered much faster than other professional players.
Next, we have to wait for Honami.
Although Honami did not agree explicitly, Gu Ran believed that Honami would definitely come tonight.
Gu Ran tidied up the room, dimmed the lights, and set the atmosphere in advance.
At this time, the cell phone rang.
Gu Ran quickly picked up the phone - it was actually the call from Rusty Stripe.
Gu Ran felt slightly disappointed.
Gu Ran was half lying on the sofa, answered the phone, and asked lazily: "Hello? Rusty Strip, what's going on?"
On the other end of the phone, Xi Zhuiao's extremely excited voice came: "Hey Gu! Good evening! The wonderful nightlife has begun again! We didn't have enough fun last night! Come out and club with us! Everyone is here,
Just waiting for you!"
Damn it...
These guys are really crazy! They sleep during the day and go clubbing at night. They are so unruly!
Not like me...
Gu Ran said in a deep voice: "Xibiao, you will all become professional players soon. It's better not to go to bars that are smoky and lively."
The two 9-point beauties in the bar last night almost made Gu Ran lose his self-discipline.
And the pole dancing performance is unsightly just thinking about it.
If you go to bars too often, you will become addicted without realizing it.
The rusty strip on the other end of the phone immediately said: "I know, I know, isn't this a celebration? Besides, last night you just stayed for a while and then went out to fight. In the end, we didn't succeed. We were all helping you clean up the mess."
Gu Ran smiled and said, "Brother enough."
"Of course!" Xi Tiao chuckled, and then asked: "By the way, who was the beautiful young woman you rescued last night?"
Gu Ran cleared his throat and said seriously: "Don't ask questions that shouldn't be asked."
There's no way I'm telling you she's my temporary fucking teammate.
Gu Ran quickly changed the subject, "Those gangsters didn't cause trouble again, did they?"
"They dare! Even if they had 100 courages, they wouldn't dare!" Xiutiao said: "Gu, you've beaten them hard enough. Their group of cowards won't even dare to retaliate, and I'm afraid they won't dare in the next three years.
Appeared in Bar Street again."
Gu Ran nodded, "That's good."
This can be regarded as eliminating harm for the people.
Rusty Strip sighed and said: "We didn't have enough fun last night. The girls all dispersed after you left, and no one caught anything."
Gu Ran smiled and said: "That's great. You didn't have a girl in the first place, and now everyone doesn't have a girl. You should be happy."
The rusty bar on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned for a moment, "...Yes! Haha! Gu, when you say that, I'm really happy! Wait... don't interrupt! Let's get down to business first! You tonight
You must come! Otherwise, none of our brothers will be able to do anything!"
Damn it, are you saying that seriously?
Gu Ran asked in confusion: "What's going on?"
Xitiao chuckled and said, "I promised everyone that I will keep it a secret until you come."
Gu Ran said: "I'm thinking about whether to introduce you to a girl."
Rusty Strip immediately said: "Good brother! Although they asked me to keep it a secret, there are no secrets between the two of us! So I must tell you this good news in advance."
...This is the way to go.
Gu Ran chuckled.
I heard Xiutiao say solemnly: "The good news is that we, the main players, have all been invited by professional clubs!"
"Oh?" Gu Ran's eyes lit up!
This is indeed good news!
Although this news has nothing to do with Gu Ran on the surface, Gu Ran has always been concerned about the future of his bad friends!
The Bucks Steel Horns are his starting team, and every main player of the Bucks Steel Horns is closely related to his youth after rebirth!
Gu Ran especially hopes that these "second-rate people" can make strides forward on the right track!
I have to say that although the English Football Association is a drag, it is still 100 times better than the Chinese Football Association! Especially in providing professional opportunities for young players!
At least the Football Association is doing something.
The Chinese Football Association is completely disgusting.
Gu Ran quickly asked: "Tell me, which clubs have you gone to?"
"Informer" Rusty Strip said in an extremely excited tone: "Basically, everyone goes to English second division clubs. Watergate and Bread received invitations from three clubs, and the two of them discussed going to Wycombe Wanderers together.
Club."
Wycombe Wanderers is a strong team in League Two, ranking in the top three in the standings.
With Minato and Bread's strength, they should just be reserve team players.
However, as long as they can play out after the one-year Football Association contract expires, they can get a formal contract with Wycombe Wanderers.
This must be a big test for them.
Minato and Bread will definitely be able to adapt quickly if they train and cooperate together.
Gu Ran was very happy for the two of them to be together.
Rusty Strip continued: "Ximei and Hualuo have also been invited by the Stockport Club. Currently, there is only one club that has invited them, so the pair may be forced to get together."
Stockport Club is the bottom team in English League Two, but it can still be regarded as a professional club.
Moreover, after Xi Mei and Hua Luo go to Stockport, they will definitely get relatively more playing opportunities.
This is also a good experience.
"The sissy has been invited to the Burghley Club and the glider has been invited to the Shrewsbury Club."
These two clubs both have the word "Burley" in their names, but one is second in English League Two and the other is fourth in English League Two. The confrontation in the future will definitely be fierce.
Sissy and Glider may have to change from teammates to rivals.
When two people compete together, the scene must be very beautiful.
Gu Ran decided to go there and watch the two of them play when there was a chance.
Rusty Strip continued: "The Painter received an invitation from Macclesfield FC, the Blind Man received an invitation from Stevenage FC, and the Tyrannosaurus Rex received an invitation from Torquay United."
These three clubs are all in the middle of League Two. Even if they only train in the reserve team for one year, they are still good.
Gu Ran asked: "Rustiao, what about you?"
I heard Xitiao smile quite proudly and said: "Well, hehe, I have received invitations from five clubs. I haven't made a complete decision yet. Alas, I am a bit picky, hahaha."
Damn it, you are so cool, you have the same style as I did back then.
Gu Ran smiled and said: "Ha, that's good. Although you don't have a woman who wants you, you do have a professional club that wants you."
Xi Tiao said: "Gu, you're worried! Didn't you just say you would introduce me to a girl? Where's the girl? What's her name? How does she look? In fact, she's just average looking. I don't care. Really, she's a girl. That’s it!”
Gu Ran automatically ignored Xi Tiao's topic about "girls" and continued to ask: "Which five clubs invited you? Tell me and I will give you some advice."
Rusty Strip said: "There is one club that can be ruled out directly - Northampton Club."
Gu Ran said with a smile: "Nonsense, you dare to go to the club of your rival in the same city? Are you afraid that the fans of Southampton High School will scold you to death?"
Rusty Strip chuckled, "Of course I won't go - there are three other English second division clubs, one is Gillingham, one is Accrington, and one is Bradford. The first two can only give me The treatment of the reserve team, and only 30% of the salary is borne, and the remaining 70% is borne by the Football Association for one year."
For the sake of outstanding talents, the upper limit of the salary that the Football Association can bear is 100%, but the term is only one year.
Therefore, generally speaking, the lower the proportion of wages borne by the club, the more it indicates that the club is still in the conservative trial training stage. Players need to perform well enough within one year to be renewed by the club.
This kind of contract is also not insured. After the one-year Football Association protection period expires, the contract may be automatically terminated because he cannot play in the first team.
This kind of thing happens everywhere in the British professional league. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge.
The British football environment does not allow for bad performances, especially for young players. The competition is very cruel and the elimination rate is very high.
Gu Ran asked: "What about Bradford Club? How are they treated?"
Rusty Strip said: "Bradford Club is willing to bear 50% of my salary and promises to give me the opportunity to play as a substitute player in the first team."
Gu Ran analyzed: "This is not bad. The first two clubs are considered mid-range teams in League Two, and they have to consider the season ranking. Bradford is in the lower reaches of League Two, and the requirements for season ranking are not high. You can indeed Get more opportunities to play. The only thing that is a little uncomfortable is that Bradford Club was formerly a rugby club. They attach far less importance to football than the rugby team. They train in the same training base as the rugby team. , the training facilities allocated to the football team are small and poor, and when there are major events, the football team has to give way to the rugby team, which is very detrimental to your future training."
Xi Biao on the other end of the phone couldn't help but gasp, "Gu, you know so much! I'm also hesitant among these clubs. Which one do you think I should choose?"
Gu Ran thought for a while, "Didn't you say that five clubs sent invitations? I only mentioned four, and there is one more?"
Xitiao smiled and said: "There is another club, a League One club..."
Damn it!
Gu Ran said in surprise: "Okay, Rusty Stripe! You kid is not good at picking up girls, but you didn't expect that you are quite lucky in playing football! A League One club actually invited you! You actually hid it and didn't tell me first? Tell me quickly. , which one is it?”
Xi Tiao hurriedly said: "Gu, I am different from you. The English League One club that invited me is not their first team, but their U18 youth team."
Gu Ran asked: "Which one?"
Rusty Stripe said: "——Swindon."
Gu Ran immediately said: "Oh!"
Swindon was also the founding club of the Southern League. Its glorious record in history was only winning the League Cup once, and it is currently the bottom team in League One.
According to Gu Ran's memory, after next season, Swindon will be relegated to League Two due to their poor record. However, the next season, Swindon will make a strong comeback and return to League One as the number one in League Two. .
As an old football club, Swindon has good infrastructure and a very strong football atmosphere.
Training with the U18 youth team in Swindon can make up for the lack of professionalism of the rusty bar and allow the rusty bar to develop more comprehensively.
As long as Rusty sticks to it seriously, he can become the main force of Swindon's defense in at most two years.
Especially when Swindon Town falls into League Two next season and many of the main players leave the team to find other jobs, there will be more opportunities for rust.
Gu Ran thought quickly and immediately said: "Rustiao, do you believe me?"
Xiutiao said matter-of-factly: "Of course I believe it...but if you still tell me that as long as you play football well, you can have many girlfriends, I won't believe it."
Gu Ran said: "Believe me, just listen to me and go to the Swindon U18 youth team and stay there for at least two years."
Xi Tiao said in surprise: "But... the U18 youth team has almost no chance to play official games, and the salary is less than half that of the English second reserve team!"
Gu Ran said: "Don't worry, it will happen. Just trust me and concentrate on training."
Xi Tiao thought for a while, then said: "Okay! I believe you! Gu! I listen to you, I will go to Swindon U18!"
Gu Ran smiled with satisfaction and said: "Come on, Rusty Strip, maybe one day in the future, we will fight side by side."
Xi Tiao laughed loudly, "Impossible! Gu, you are the target of a wealthy family. Everyone knows that you stay in League One to make up for the shortcomings of professional training. I bet you will definitely leave after a year. The gap between us in English League One is already huge. A year later, the gap between us will only be a hundred times bigger. Let alone fighting side by side, there will be no chance for us to even compete against each other."
Gu Ran's heart moved and he smiled, "That's not necessarily the case."
He had an immature idea in his mind, but it was too early to express it now——
Xi Tiao didn't care at all, he just thought Gu Ran was comforting him, so he smiled and said: "Okay, I've told you all the good news, can you come to the bar to drink with us tonight?"
Gu Ran said: "Isn't it just to tell me the good news that you asked me to go to the bar? Now that I know your good news, there is no need to go to the bar. Xitiao, you don't want your brothers to know that you have already Did you tell me all this news in advance?"
Xi Tiao said: "...What about my sister? You promised to find me a girl!"
Gu Ran said: "I promised you, but I didn't say when I would help you find it."
Xi Tiao said angrily: "You will find it for me when I become a father?"
Gu Ran smiled and said: "That's okay."
"Fake you! Gu! Fake you!" Xiuziao laughed angrily, "How can I be a father without a girl? No! Gu, you must find a girl for me! Right now! I depend on you! You
If you don’t find me a girl, I will call and harass you every day! Especially when you are sleeping!”
Damn it! Is this really a big deal?
Gu Ran thought for a while and said: "Rust... If it doesn't work, just spend some money."
"..." Xi Biao on the other end of the phone was so angry that he wanted to throw the phone down, "What the hell kind of suggestion is this? Am I that kind of person? Am I... that kind of rich person?"
Gu Ran said: "It's simple. Things that can be done with money don't count. I'll transfer the money to you - that's it."
Xi Tiao said quickly: "Gu! This is not about money! I, I, I... I mean, I don't want women, I want to fall in love!"
Gu Ran sighed, "I'm not God - Goodbye, Rusty Stripe, forget me."
Rusty Strip scolded: "Fake, look out! The bar is so fun and there are so many girls, why don't you like coming?"
Gu Ran said seriously: "Xibiao, I have to train tomorrow. I am training with the Southampton U18 youth team. In a few days, I will have a match with the Liverpool youth team with the Southampton U18 youth team.
.”
"So that's it..." Xiutiao said in admiration: "Gu, you are really too self-disciplined. I, Xiutiao, have never obeyed anyone in my life, so I will obey you! I can't even learn your self-discipline.
Come on! I'm just curious, how do you manage to be self-disciplined and have so many girlfriends at the same time?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door of Dune Villa was pushed open, and then Honami's nervous and melodious voice came to the living room, "Gu Ranjun... Gu Ranjun, are you there?"
"Here you are!" Gu Ran responded excitedly before he could hang up the phone.
Come, come! She is indeed here!
Hahaha!
Who the hell goes to a bar when this happens every day?
Gu Ran held the phone in his hand, jumped off the sofa with a sudden jerk, and ran towards the foyer with bare feet.
Xiutiao asked in shock on the other end of the phone: "Wait! What's going on? Who's talking? Didn't you say you still have to train tomorrow?"
"That's right, so I have to hurry up tonight... and hang up!"
"Hey, hey? Fake, take care of yourself, Fake, Fake, Fake—"
Without waiting for Xi Tiao to finish speaking, Gu Ran hung up the phone and ran up to Honami.
At this time, Honami was standing at the door cautiously, with a embarrassed face. She wanted to step in, but she was afraid that she would not be able to control herself after walking in.
She wore a close-fitting black dress tonight, the hem of which covered her slender calves and fluttered lightly in the warm sea breeze.
Her body proportions are excellent. Although she is not as tall as European and American girls, her temperament makes up for her lack of height, and she looks petite and feminine.
Most European and American girls have big frames, while Oriental girls basically have small frames.
It is difficult for a big frame to show true femininity, but a small frame, even if it is a little fleshy, is even more feminine.
At this point, the difference is more obvious at that time.
Honami wears a beautiful pearl necklace on her elegant neck, which complements her white jade-like skin.
Although her actual age is over 40 years old and she is also the mother of a child, her mature temperament makes her appearance look even more unique.
She wore very decent makeup on her face, which did not look coquettish, but also broke through the boundaries of ordinary mother's makeup, giving her a different kind of boldness and unrestrainedness than usual.
Obviously, she had been preparing for this makeup for a long time, and it was specially prepared for Gu Ran.
Gu Ran could imagine Suzuki Honami's nervous and expectant mood when applying this makeup.
In fact, as a natural ageless beauty, she can always look dazzling even without makeup.
Her short and medium hair is spread over her shoulders, giving her a retro but pure and feminine look.
Her eyes were a little cramped, especially when she saw Gu Ran rushing out, her eyes had nowhere to hide.
——The temperament of a middle-aged girl is really awesome.
Gu Ran felt like his mouth was about to drool, "Honami, you look so beautiful tonight."
A simple compliment made Honami feel like a deer.
Honami felt that the words "we can't do that" that she had thought about on the way were instantly crushed by Gu Ran's compliment.
For a moment, Honami even experienced the shy feeling of girlhood again.
Oops, Oops...
I had planned to come to have a showdown with Gu Ranjun today. I had planned to tell Gu Ranjun righteously that they should never meet in private in the future, but in the end...
I'm going to fall in! What to do!?
"Um……"
Honami lowered her head and picked her fingers nervously, "Gu Ranjun, please don't misunderstand me... I came here simply to say thank you."
Gu Ran smiled and said: "Don't worry, I won't misunderstand. It's windy outside. Come in and chat."
"I, I, I won't go in and cause trouble to Gu Ranjun, right?" Honami said, not wanting to go in and cause trouble, but she had no intention of leaving.
Are you waiting for me to take action?
Gu Ran grabbed Honami's waist and hips and said, "Tian, I must add."
"Don't..." Honami bit her lip and walked into the Dune Villa without her control of her legs.
