What's going on between you and Zhang Qinghuan? "

In the away hotel room, Qin Lin asked his roommate Hu Lai.

He had been watching from the side during the previous training, and it could be seen that Zhang Qinghuan seemed to be at odds with Hu Lai. But he couldn't figure it out, these two people should have had no intersection before.

"Hey, it's actually not a big deal..." Hu Lai explained. "To put it simply, I acted bravely and helped a girl who was heartbroken by a scumbag."

Qin Lin:? ? ?

Qin Lin, who was stunned for a few seconds, frowned and said, "Speak human!"

"Uh, follow orders!" Then Hu Lai told him how he and Wang Guangwei went to Senwei Road for dinner on Thursday night, and met Zhang Qinghuan who was also eating there, and was scared away by a woman who came to him. Qin Lin listened.

After listening, Qin Lin frowned and asked, "No, what's your business if someone picks up a girl and overturns the car? Why do you have to get involved?"

Hu Lai pouted: "I don't like him."

"Why?" Qin Lin was even more surprised, "Are you jealous of other women?"

Hu Lai shook his head quickly: "No, no!"

Then he repeated the reasons he had told Wang Guangwei in front of Mr. Qin Lin.

"...Obviously so talented, the football road is going smoothly, and the future is limitless, but he doesn't know how to cherish it, and spends all his time and energy on women... Seeing such a person, I want to tease him Come on, let him suffer a little."

Hearing what Hu Lai said, Qin Lin sighed, and then said nothing.

Seeing this, Hu Lai was a little apprehensive—couldn't the big boss disapprove of my actions? Think I'm nosy, think I'm small-minded?

So he rolled his eyes and quickly lowered his head and said, "Brother Lin, I was wrong! You are right, no matter what happens to Zhang Qinghuan, it has nothing to do with me, I shouldn't meddle in other people's business..."

Hu Lai, who was in a panic and wanted to restore his image in front of Qin Lin, heard a chuckle.

"A little advice, Hu Lai. You must not rush to apologize in front of your girlfriend like this, otherwise your girlfriend will think that you have done something wrong, and the nature will be serious."

Hu Lai looked up and saw Qin Lin looking at him with a smile,

He shook his head quickly: "No, no, Brother Lin. I don't even have a girlfriend, and I can't do anything that I want to do!"

Qin Lin laughed loudly, then stared at Hu Lai with a smile, staring at him confused: "Brother Lin?"

When Hu Lai called the other party softly, he found that Qin Lin's eyes had obviously refocused and regained his spirit.

He shook his head: "What you said is wrong... No, I was wrong. If someone... No, if I could meddle like you, Zhang Qinghuan might not be what she is today... ..."

Hu Lai:? ? ?

This time it was his turn to have a lot of question marks.

Seeing Hu Lai's bewildered expression, Qin Lin smiled and said, "Did you know that Zhang Qinghuan is called the 'Francis of China'?"

Holly nodded.

"Then do you know that after his debut, he was first called 'Qin Lin's successor' by the media?"

Holly shook his head.

"It's normal not to know, because he soon got the nickname of 'Francis of China'. Obviously, Louis Francis is more famous than Qin Lin." Speaking of this, Qin Lin smiled, and then he gave Hu Lai told the story of himself and Zhang Qinghuan.

"At the beginning, I was quite upset when I heard the media said that someone was my successor, because I was only 33 years old at that time, and I was not old yet. Why did you rush to find a successor for me? After a while, the South China Tigers and Tenglong met in the Chinese Super League. At that time, Zhang Qinghuan, who was only 18 years old, was the main force of Tenglong and started the game. He was the midfielder and I was the midfielder. Not specifically in defense, but I did guard him in that game..."

Qin Lin still remembers the look in Zhang Qinghuan's eyes when he faced him on the court, which reminded him of a phrase:

Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

At that time, Zhang Qinghuan really exuded an unstoppable aura all over his body, and his gestures were full of confidence.

Facing Qin Lin's close defense, he can use his heels to pass through people and make big brother go round and round.

It also caused the home fans in the Gongti stands to scream and cheer.

Qin Lin had no choice but to take advantage of his physical strength, knock him down from the side and rear, and received a yellow card amidst overwhelming boos.

But Zhang Qinghuan, who was stopped by his foul, didn't seem to be angry, but sat on the ground and smiled at him.

It's also about spreading hands, and Qin Lin is very clear that the meaning of spreading hands is completely different from what he said to Hu Lai on the training ground yesterday.

"...At that time Zhang Qinghuan was very confident, but not arrogant. Now Zhang Qinghuan is very proud, but no longer confident." Qin Lin said to Hu Lai.

Hu Lai thought about his two words.

"We lost this match called 'Dragon Tiger Fight' by the media in the away game. Zhang Qinghuan was elected the player of the game after the game, and he deserved it. He ran tirelessly in the game and kept on playing on the court Look for loopholes in our defense and assist his teammates with imaginative passes. If there are no loopholes, then he will dribble and break through, disrupt our defense, and create loopholes by himself... Such a performance is certainly worthy of the best in the game Driven by him, the whole Gongti is like a pot of boiling water. I have observed that our teammates are obviously not breathing well after hearing the shouts of Tamron fans during the game... and this is all Zhang Qinghuan caused it alone."

Listening to Qin Lin's description, Hu Lai imagined that scene in his mind. Although he doesn't like the current Zhang Qinghuan, he has to admit that the Zhang Qinghuan described by Qin Lin is really handsome...

"It was after this game that people no longer called him my successor, but called him 'Francis of China'."

Hu Lai came to a sudden—I dare to love that he earned his nickname from you, big brother...

"After that game, I felt that it would be good to let this kid be my successor. Of course, I don't plan to retire, but I do have the idea of ​​treating him as my successor and cultivating it. But we are not in the same club. Usually, we don’t meet at all. Only in the national team... Not long after, he was selected for the first time in the national team’s training list. When the room was allocated, I lived in the same room with him, and I proposed it on my own initiative.

"We talked a lot, and I had a good relationship with him during that time. Although we were independent at the club, we all had one goal in the national team - to win glory for the country. I really thought at the time, After he matured quickly, I partnered with him in the midfield, I controlled the rhythm at the back, and he organized the attack in front, the Chinese team may not be able to participate in the World Cup at the end of this year..."

The 2022 World Cup will still be held in Qatar in this time and space, and it will still be held in December at the end of the year.

But the World Cup qualifiers are all over.

In the qualifiers without Qin Lin, the Chinese team stumbled into the final top 12, but failed to get the right to qualify.

Hearing what Qin Lin said now, Hu Lai thought to himself that at that time the boss probably never thought of giving up participating in this World Cup qualifier. As a result, he didn't even participate in the top 40 this time, and withdrew from the national team after the Asian Cup in early 2019.

If Zhang Qinghuan hadn't become what he is now, and everything had gone according to the boss's plan, would the Chinese team with him and Zhang Qinghuan really be able to appear in the World Cup in Qatar at the end of the year?

But there are no ifs in real life. Zhang Qinghuan failed to grow into what everyone expected. Qin Lin also left sadly after the Asian Cup. The Chinese national team once again missed the World Cup finals.

As a Chinese fan, Hu Lai felt dejected by this reality.

"...But you also know what happened later." Seeing that Hu Lai seemed a little depressed, Qin Lin laughed. "Zhang Qinghuan has set many records in the national team. For example, he is the youngest player in the history of the men's national team, the youngest player to score goals, and the player with the most caps for the national team before the age of twenty - many twenty Before the age of 20, the players were still in the national youth team or the national Olympic team. He already had a record of eight senior national team appearances. But after the age of 20, he has not been selected for the national team once, because he was expelled from the national team because of drunk driving .In fact, even if he does not drink and drive, with his performance and state, the national team will not want him..."

Now, Zhang Qinghuan, who will be 23 years old in January next year, still has an appearance record of eight for the national team.

Twenty-three years old is the deadline for a player to participate in the Olympics, and players under this age are still considered young people. For example, the Chinese Super League has a "U23" policy, which stipulates that each team must register three players under the age of 23 in the 18-man roster, and one of them must start. Players under the age of 23 must play no less than 60 minutes.

It is to develop young players.

It is not a special case of Chinese football that players under the age of 23 can still be regarded as young players, but it is the same across the world.

The reason why Zhao Kangming still couldn't let go of Zhang Qinghuan and rented him from the capital Tenglong was because Zhang Qinghuan was not yet twenty-three at that time, and in his eyes he was still a malleable talent.

And as he grows older, if Zhang Qinghuan can't make any changes, his future may be finalized.

Many people will no longer look at him with the eyes of young players, no longer believe that he may change in the future, and will not tolerate his mistakes. After all, no one will give him special treatment after he is no longer young.

People will no longer label Zhang Qinghuan as a "star of tomorrow" or "genius".

After the first match in the league, Zhang Qinghuan and Qin Lin also played against each other four times in the league. In all five matches, in terms of team performance, Qin Lin won three times, Zhang Qinghuan won twice, and the remaining time was tied. But in terms of individual duels, Zhang Qinghuan only won that one time, and Qin Lin won the remaining four times.

As an opponent who had a direct conversation on the field, Qin Lin really watched Zhang Qinghuan gradually transform from a genius who was full of aura and freely swaying on the court to a walking dead who was sleepwalking in a daze.

"I also thought about it before, should I persuade him as a person who has experienced it. But then I thought about what other people's way and people go by themselves, what's the matter with me? What qualifications and position do I have to ask others to follow my ideas? Life? Otherwise, why didn't I restrain my teammates in the South China Tigers first?" Qin Lin shook his head and said. "Now I feel that I made a mistake back then. I shouldn't care what others say. I should pull Zhang Qinghuan out of the quagmire. I don't care what he thinks. His path was wrong, and the wrong path cannot be followed."

Seeing Qin Lin blaming himself, Hu Lai wanted to comfort him, but he didn't know what to say. Could it be that you didn't do anything wrong back then, boss?

In fact, Hu Lai also felt that since Qin Lin had a good relationship with Zhang Qinghuan and was a senior, why couldn't he persuade him? Let’s not talk about persuasion. Did you use such words? How do you know it’s useless if you don’t persuade? At that time, Zhang Qinghuan was not in deep trouble, maybe he came back after persuading him?

Just like when the boss was young.

After being taken by the "Second Brother" to play in nightclubs for three days, I couldn't even think about leaving. In such a situation, I was given a blow by the "Second Brother", wouldn't I suddenly wake up?

Seeing that Hu Lai was silent, Qin Lin suddenly said: "Hu Lai, don't go on the wrong path. You are talented and have an out-of-the-ordinary personality. Sometimes I am really worried that you will not be able to withstand the temptation... and you It was also my request to live in a room before the game."

"Huh?" Hu Lai was a little surprised.

"I want to keep an eye on you so that you don't learn from it. I failed to keep an eye on Zhang Qinghuan at the beginning, and I don't want to make the same mistake again."

Hu Lai raised his head and looked at Qin Lin, who was so old that he could almost be his father, and found that the other party's expression was quite serious, not like he was joking.

So he also said solemnly: "Don't worry, Brother Lin, I finally got the chance to play football, and I will never be so stupid as Zhang Qinghuan. For Zhang Qinghuan, some things come too easily. That's why I don't know how to cherish. And what he doesn't know to cherish is hard-won for me. I paid so much to come here not to mess around."

Hearing what Hu Lai said, Qin Lin nodded with a smile: "Go to sleep, tomorrow's game will not be easy."
