From the Country Team To the Rich

Chapter 17 Greatness comes from...trying!

Duran Bob is out for the season due to injury, which is extremely worrying for Hoffenheim fans.

Captains are no ordinary players.

Especially Duran Bob, he has more important significance for Hoffenheim.

Many fans left messages on the official website, asking about Duran Bob's injury, which forced Hoffenheim to issue a detailed statement about Duran Bob's injury.

Although the facts are cruel, both the club and the fans always need to face all this.

On September 21, Hoffenheim challenged Nierdorf away.

Both teams are internal teams of Baden-Württemberg, so there is not much interference from public opinion.

But this game is extremely important for Hoffenheim.

Because, they will welcome the game under the leadership of a new captain.

At 17:00, the player channel.

Gray was at the head of the team in his Hoffenheim jersey, with the yellow captain's armband on his arm.

Standing here, his inner feeling is quite delicate.

Putting it into the tunnel, he could see some scenes in the stadium. Today's wind is very strong, and there will be a sound of 'woooooooo' when it blows through the tunnel.

Gray straightened his body, trying to imitate Duran Bob's appearance.

In previous games, Duran Bob was always at the forefront, and the players could see his back when they looked up.

And every time they see this back, the team members will feel at ease.

Gray didn't know if he could achieve this effect, but at least he needed to try.

The captain's armband on his arm felt extremely heavy for some reason.

At this moment, he realized what Duran Bob's words meant.

‘When I first wore the armband, even I felt that fear, it was like carrying a mountain. '

'Later I understood that this armband not only brings you honor,

At the same time, it will give you a lot of pressure! '

‘Victory, honor, defeat, blame! All these need you to carry for the team, because you are the captain! '

'Grey, you asked me what makes greatness! '

'Now I'll tell you the answer, greatness comes from... trying again and again! '

'Go, my friend, face it all, and you will achieve greatness! '

The referee moved forward first, Gray took a deep breath, and slowly followed.

Get out of the player tunnel.

The sky is overcast, and the wind is howling.

This is the call before the storm!

But it doesn't matter... Suffering will only make you stronger!

…

After the rain, Zhang Xian stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows with his hands behind his back, looking at the sky.

The dark clouds gradually dispersed, revealing the fiery red sunset...

There are still signs of the storm on the streets, but it's all so beautiful now.

This battle report was quietly read on the desk behind him.

German Southern Regional League, fifth round, Nierdorf 1:2 Hoffenheim!

…

Inside a manor in New York, USA.

A bearded man in a black robe with red spots sits barefoot on the grass surrounded by several large dogs.

Alpha Tim threw the piece of meat in his hand aside, and the surrounding large dogs ran over frantically, looting it.

While he was leisurely admiring this scene, a man in a suit walked into the manor and came straight to his side.

Seeing the man in the suit, Alpha Tim stood up slowly with his arms propped up, and said, "Go in and talk!"

Walking into the house, Alpha Tim was sitting on the sofa, and the man in the suit was standing opposite him, making a report.

"The inspection results came out. Ligue 1 Saint Brittany welcomes us very much, but they have some arrears, but these are not problems for us. The investment evaluation is B+."

Alpha Thiem smiled and said, "The Ligue 1 giants only have a B+ rating, you guys are really strict!"

"Because the value of Ligue 1 is not high, even though they are the five major leagues, their competitiveness is too weak." The man in the suit said.

Alpha Tim nodded; "Continue!"

"The next one is Tottenham United in the Premier League. This is a club invested by European businessmen. It has a good prospect in the Premier League. Under the irrigation of capital, it also has the prospect of growing into a giant. For details, you can refer to last season Stanford, the champion of the Premier League, has an investment rating of B!"

Alpha Tim thought for a while, then waved his hand and said, "That European businessman is willing to let go?"

"He didn't want to, that's why they got a B rating." The man in the suit said.

The man in the suit kept reporting that more than a dozen European football clubs were included in the scope of investigation.

Finally, the man in the suit said slowly:

"Hoffenheim, a German fourth-tier league team based in the southern state of Baden-Württemberg, is a country team."

"Three years ago, they were still a seventh-level amateur team. They entered the Southern German Regional League with three consecutive jumps. With their hot scene atmosphere and the excitement of victory, they continued to absorb the surrounding areas. Now they have successfully won the Xining League. Sheim's fan market, ready to enter the Rhine-Neckar county."

"In the evaluation of the statistics department, there are some differences, and the overall evaluation is between C-F!"

"There was a feeling that they couldn't make it, that it was just a country team, and that it got an F for that."

"However, some people think that the internal situation of Baden-Württemberg is special, and the rise of Hoffenheim is likely to copy the characteristics of Bayern. , pushing him into the realm of the rich."

"In fact, the fan market in Rhine-Neckar County is indeed enough to meet the requirements of a wealthy club!"

"But the problem is that Munich 1900 is in the city and Hoffenheim is in the country!"

"No one can judge whether he can really succeed!"

"To sum up, the club most suitable for our investment is still Ligue 1's Saint-Bretagne!"

After Alpha Tim heard about it, he showed an expression of great interest, and said, "Get ready for the plane, let's go to Europe, I still want to confirm some things myself."

"Now?" the man in the suit asked.

"Now!" Alpha Tim said.

…

Germany, Hoffenheim.

After entering the competition period, Zhang Xian became more relaxed.

Recently, various resources of Hoffenheim have been saturated.

The basic construction has also been completed, and the further step is to build the stadium, but this is still a distant goal.

For Hoffenheim, the most important thing for them now is to make a name for themselves and quickly upgrade.

In the office, after sorting out the documents in his hand, Zhang Xian stretched his waist.

After getting up and moving around, he decided to go out for a walk.

Walking out of the office building, along the asphalt road laid by the training base, to Hoffenheim Village, Zhang Xian went straight to Lawrence's bar through the main road.

Lawrence, as usual, dozed off at the bar.

Outside of game days, the old guy has no passion at all.

Boom! !

Zhang Xian tapped the bar table to wake up Lawrence.

"A glass of dark beer!"

Lawrence was a little annoyed at being interrupted, but when he saw Zhang Xian, he couldn't help smiling and said, "Come right away!"

After a while, he came over with two dark beers.

Looking at the two glasses of dark beer on the table, Zhang Xian said, "I remember only one!"

"This is mine!" Lawrence picked up the stout and drank it.

Zhang Xian smiled, and also pursed his lips on his own.

After drinking a glass of cool beer, Lawrence made a break and asked, "You haven't been here for a long time."

In the past, Zhang Xian would patronize his small bar from time to time.
