Chapter 80 - Farewell and departure

Gao Zheng didn’t stay at home for long.

He has received emails and cell phone messages sent to him by the club, informing him that he has been selected for the first team of the new season’s training list, asking him to return to Borgiasco’s Mugnani training on July 5th Base, to participate in pre-season training for the first team.

This means that he is one step closer to becoming a real professional player.

Since it was already June 12th when the reserve team finished the finals last season, the time left for him was actually not long.

Plus he stayed with the old man for another week.

So he stayed at home for ten days and was ready to set off for Italy.

During this period, he and his dad watched a ball game, the qualifying match for the final stage of the 2012 London Olympics Asian Qualifiers. The Chinese Olympic team played against the Omani Olympic team in Shanghai.

The Chinese Olympic team lost to the Oman Olympic team 0:1 in this game and lost their first chance in the first game of the two rounds.

The second game returned to Oman’s home court. With the characteristics of West Asian football, the Chinese Olympic team will have almost no chance.

Gao Zheng’s father sighed at the result: “Ah… if you are not injured, you should be there now.” He pointed to the stadium on the TV.

He doesn’t care about obscenity.

In fact, Gao Zheng not only missed the Olympic Games, but also missed the 2010 Asian Youth Championships held in Zibo, Shandong. During that Asian Youth Championship, the Chinese U119 youth team performed well in the group stage. Won the first place in the group, but was eliminated in the quarter-finals, missed the top four, and lost the qualification to participate in the 2011 World Youth Championship.

In 2010, Gao Zheng was in a state of decadence. Because of the conclusion of the Milan laboratory, he left the AC Milan youth training camp, came to the old man to seek refuge, and disappeared into the vast sea.

Going back to the previous year’s 2009 Asian Youth Qualifiers, Gao Zheng had just recovered from the serious injury. He was in poor physical condition and poor competitive condition. He also suffered several frequent injuries. .

This led to his failure to be selected for the then U19 National Youth Team.

In fact, if it weren’t for the serious injury in 2008, Gao Zheng’s life trajectory should be completely different from now.

When he first entered the AC Milan youth training camp in 2005, there were media reports that he had attracted the attention of the Football Association since then. In 2006, he was recruited into the national youth team to participate in a friendly match, but at that time the coach of the national youth team did not highly evaluate Gao Zheng. Although he was trained in AC Milan, he and his teammates on the field did not cooperate. Rising up, he is more involved in singles fighting alone, plus his high, but not strong, do not have an advantage in physical confrontation, so he only played a few games in the national junior team, he was not being Enrolled.

Who would have thought that Gao Zheng’s U16 broke out in AC Milan in 2007, which not only helped AC Milan win the national championship of this age, but also elected himself the best player.

But unfortunately, because the Chinese team did not get the qualification for the next year’s World Youth Championship in the Asian Games last year, Gao Zheng, who performed well in AC Milan, lost an opportunity to prove himself on the world stage.

He can only participate in a few friendly matches with the U17 national youth team, and his performance is much better than that of that year.

If he maintains this momentum and is not injured, he should logically join the U19 National Youth Team to participate in the 2010 Zibo Asian Youth Championship. With his national youth team, he should be able to win the top four of that tournament and qualify for the World Youth Championship. The performance of the National Youth Team with Gao Zheng in the World Youth Championship is also very exciting. In addition to Gao Zheng, this national youth team led by Song Maozhen also has domestic talented youngsters Wu Lei, Zhang Xizhe, Yang Yi, Hu Letian, etc. The strength is actually not bad…

But it was a pity that the serious injury in 2008 turned all this into a bubble destined to impossible.

Gao Zheng said nothing.

In fact, after he left AC Milan, Director Feng, who was in charge of the Youth Department of the Chinese Football Association, called Gao Zheng’s family and asked Gao Zheng about the situation.

The initial reply was “Unclear”. After all, Gao Zheng didn’t go home at that time.

Later, Gao Zheng’s father directly said that Gao Zheng suffered serious injuries that might lead to retirement. His mother hoped that Gao Zheng would be able to go home to take the university exam.

Director Feng over there heard a long sigh and felt sorry for the news. Later, he also said that if Gao Zheng wants to enter the university, he can find him with any difficulties, and he can help him within his ability.

But Gao Zheng’s father declined politely.

Of course, that Director Feng also left the Chinese Football Association after the anti-gambling anti-crime storm in football started and no longer took charge of any work related to the Football Association. From the point of view that he hasn’t entered yet, he is indeed innocent in the drug trafficking and anti-smuggling operations that have caused many FA executives to fall deep inside the FA.

In the past, Director Feng had been in contact with Gao Zheng. After he left the Football Association, coupled with the great changes in the Football Association’s personnel, the Chinese Football Association had long been disconnected from Gao Zheng.

So although Gao Zheng has been playing in the Sampdoria reserve team for half a season now, the Chinese Football Association has no knowledge of Gao Zheng’s situation there.

Otherwise, maybe he can still appear in today’s TV?

If so, has the fate of the Chinese Olympic team changed as a result?

These problems are now unknown.

※※※

Before Gao Zheng left, the Chinese Olympic team went to play the second round away game. They were able to kill Oman once and qualify for the final stage of the Asian qualifiers.

However, the Iranian black whistle Mohanxin Doji suffered a partial penalty and the Olympic team lost to Oman 1:3, completely missed the London Olympics.

Under the news of this game, in addition to the anger of the fans on the black whistle and the foreign game of the West Asian football, a few people mentioned the name of Gao Zheng: If Gao Zheng is still there and is not injured, is this scene not Will it happen?

But this is destined to be only the good dreams of the fans, it is absolutely impossible to achieve.

Gao Zheng himself knew nothing about these sporadic voices.

After a few days of rest at home, he packed his luggage again and was ready to leave again.

Leaving home this time made Gao Zheng’s parents feel a little different from the past.

They used to think that their children were not the material for professional football, but their son proved with practical actions that he could gain a foothold in European football.

There is no feeling of being beaten as a parent.

They just hope that the child can stand out, but also have a trace of worry.

Mom repeatedly told me not to get hurt, just hide on the court.

When Daddy asked directly, “Your left foot…”

Gao Zheng moved his left ankle: “Having played in the Sampdoria reserve team for half a season and never had any problems, I think maybe it is all right.”

“Still pay attention…”

“I know.” Gao Zheng shook the phone in his hand. “Anyway, you all have this. If you have anything, just contact me on WeChat.”

After returning home, he also bought the same smartphone for his parents.

Daddy said that it was too wasteful and unnecessary, but the day he got the new phone, he went downstairs and turned around. Was he shining out of his pocket during the hello and chat with the neighbors in the neighborhood? The iPhone looks at the time, and then everyone screams in envy.

Don’t mention how cool it is to be a dad.

My mother complained to her son about her husband’s stinky appearance, and she did the same thing when she went shopping for food…

Seeing his parents doing the same thing but complaining about the other person’s smell, Gao Zheng laughed.

Although he is currently signing a professional contract with Sampdoria, he is the lowest contract, and the salary is not high, so there is no way to directly change the house for his parents.

Nevertheless, in the eyes of his parents, his son is already a big money maker.

※※※

Saying goodbye to his parents, Gao Zheng returned to the city where the old man and Zhao Ju were located, where he would fly directly to Milan, Italy.

He arrived a day in advance, visited the old man again, and at the same time looked at his smartphone for any problems.

I had a meal with Zhao Ju again.

The next day, Zhao Ju drove his Iraqi “god car” to Gao Zheng to the airport.

“Buy a new car for you, old Zhao. Since you want to pull the goods, you have to use a good car…” Gao Zheng told Zhao Bureau on the way to the airport.

But Zhao Ju very firmly rejected Gao Zheng’s good intentions: “No, brother Zheng. I’m very embarrassed to buy a mobile phone for me. Although the car is broken, it can still be driven, and the cost of keeping the car is also very low. .. I will change the car myself when I make money.”

Seeing his friend so determined, Gao Zheng no longer persuaded, but only smiled.

Old Zhao has become sensitive since his legs and feet were unfavorable, and his kindness to others will always be understood as “alms”, and he will subconsciously refuse help from others.

He could accept the phone sent by Gao Zheng, or Gao Zheng came up with a reason he could not refuse.

When Lao Zhao’s tattered Wuling glory just stopped at the international departure entrance of the airport terminal, it immediately attracted everyone’s attention.

A Volkswagen Sagitar taxi honked its horn hardly behind their car’s side, which seemed to be dissatisfied that the Wuling Rongguang had robbed his optimistic parking space.

A traffic policeman responsible for maintaining order also came up.

Zhao Ju quickly jumped out of the driver’s seat, first waved an apology to the taxi behind the horn, and then rushed to the traffic police to say respectfully: “Comrade police, I will give it to you, leave immediately, leave now…”

“Give it away?” The traffic policeman was puzzled and saw a handsome guy in the co-pilot grin at him.

“Sorry, I took the luggage and left.”

That handsome face made the traffic police a little dizzy-this broken car and handsome face was too uncomfortable, making him wonder if he had an illusion.

Zhao Ju jumped out of the car, opened the tailgate, and brought the suitcase and backpack down to Gao Zheng.

“It’s safe all the way, when we send… WeChat.” He stopped for a while, intending to talk about text messages, but fortunately he quickly responded that it was not WeChat.

“Okay. You take care of yourself and have time to go and see the old man for me.”

“Relax, that’s my coach too.”

Zhao Ju reached out and planned to shake Gao Zheng, but Gao Zheng opened his arms and hugged him.

“I’m gone, old Zhao, take care of yourself.”

After talking about Gao Zheng carrying a backpack, he pulled up his suitcase and turned his head toward the terminal entrance without turning back.

Zhao Ju stood at the same place and watched Gao Zheng’s back disappear in the brightly lit terminal entrance.

The taxi did not rush him.

Because including the driver, both people in the car watched a daze in front of them.

A broken car, a handsome guy, a hug.

The female passenger sitting in the back seat looked at this scene and murmured: “Great boy, unfortunately it’s a GAY…”

PS, yesterday’s game between England and Sweden was unstoppable, and it was easy for England to win.

But the game between Croatia and Russia can be described as tragic-although the two teams are not very dirty, but they are very cruel, many players are injured, they are exhausted, the lead in overtime is equalized, and the penalty is finally The decisive battle… This game did not score many goals, but after entering overtime, it was very fierce and beautiful.

The final penalty shootout Croatia was more stable than Russia.

I am very happy that Croatia has reached the semifinals. After all, Croatia has Modric I like. I still hope they can go further…

There will be no competition for the next three days, everyone can continue to have a good rest.

And the World Cup is getting closer and closer.

A little bit reluctant…
