Chapter 337 The Rise of the Chinese Team! Nanlou Athletic VS Real Madrid!
"Oh my god!"
Wang Yuchen's backpack fell to the ground with a plop. Looking at the court in front of him, his jaw almost dropped to the ground!
"Bai Ran! Is this the court you found?"
Bai Ran raised his eyebrows and said, "Yes, if you don't mind, this will be your home court in the future."
"My God... this is too luxurious!"
"This stand!?"
"The quality of the grass?"
"This is definitely at the level of world competitions!"
"Where did you find this kind of court? Isn't there a team using it?"
Bai Ran smiled mysteriously, "Don't worry about it."
Zhang Hefeng was also shocked and patted Bai Ran on the shoulder, "It must have cost a lot of money, brother."
Bai Ran waved his hand, "No money, this is my friend's."
Zhang Hefeng smiled brightly. How could it be that he didn't spend money? This must be a court that Bai Ran spent a lot of money to get.
This kind of competition-level grass must have been maintained for many years to be so good.
And it looks brand new.
How can this kind of court be free?
Teams from all over the world want it but it's too late.
Think about the level of grass field that I played on in China before, it was just terrible...
There are few professional grass fields in China, and it's a sky-high price to have a field for them to use.
"That's great, I owe you another huge favor."
Bai Ran also hugged Zhang Hefeng.
"Isn't it too formal to say that?"
"Nothing else, we can start training."
"You should also find the feeling you used to have."
"Luo Yun, bring the ball over!"
Luo Yun is another starting winger of Nanlou Spirit. Zhang Hefeng plays on the left, while Luo Yun plays on the right.
Back then, the two of them were known as the Fengyun combination.
On the court, the super trident formed by Luo Yun, Zhang Hefeng and Wang Yuchen defeated countless opponents.
And Luo Yun also served as the team's internal affairs manager, and he was responsible for all trivial matters.
Luo Yun is also the most careful person in Nanlou Spirit.
Therefore, his footwork is almost the best in the team. He observes the situation on the field in detail, and his footwork is also perfect.
Zhang Hefeng's characteristics are very obvious. Just like his name, Hefeng Hefeng, his speed is as fast as the wind.
At this time, Luo Yun was carrying a bag of footballs and walked to the court. When he stepped on the green grass, Luo Yun poured out a whole bag of footballs, and the players found the feeling they had before.
"Come on, I will train you."
Bai Ran took the lead and became the coach.
After all, he had received about a year of professional football training and was also a very capable general under Zidane, so in this regard, he could still copy Zidane and learn a three-point shot.
With the football level in China, if the coach can learn Zidane's three-pointer, it will be enough to look down on the national team level...
"Warm up first, run circles, then form groups of two, attack and defend, and practice basic skills in the afternoon."
"The movements must be standard!"
On the court, the energetic young people let go of their hands and feet to train, while Bai Ran walked through the crowd with his hands behind his back, feeling quite like a famous coach!
"Hefeng, pay attention to the strength of the pass!"
"Yuchen, you have the same old problem again! How many times have I told you! Look up at your teammates!"
"Ajian, Ajian! What are you doing?"
"He slowed down and passed you with the ball, you retreated at this time!"
"Have you forgotten how to play football?"
Bai Ran instructed the players' movements, and everything was going on in an orderly manner.
It's true that Bai Ran's instructions were really good.
Zhang Hefeng was also very happy that the spirit of Nanlou could be reunited and could actually get on the right track. It was also their luck to meet such a noble person as Bai Ran.
A day of training ended in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Hefeng decided to treat everyone to a good meal!
It just so happened that these guys finally went abroad, and in North America, they were ready to have a proper Western meal with everyone.
Moreover, they also wanted to thank Bai Ran for giving them this opportunity and giving them such great support.
At the dinner table, everyone used tea instead of wine to express respect and gratitude to Bai Ran.
Seeing the former brothers smiling, Bai Ran was also happy from the bottom of his heart.
From the beginning, Zhang Hefeng and I went to find players one by one, and the players who went their separate ways had their own lives and were unwilling to come.
And now, the dark willows and flowers are bright, and finally they have seen the flowers in full bloom.
All this is hard-won.
At the same time, Bai Ran also realized one thing.
Once the bow is shot, there is no turning back!
This friendly match is definitely not the end of the Nanlou spirit.
They must develop, and have better development.
"By the way, Bai Ran, you said you were going to play against Real Madrid, so why did you bring us to North America?"
"Did Real Madrid come to North America specifically to play with us?"
Bai Ran shook his head and looked at Zhang Hefeng.
"No, your venue is in North America. We will go to Madrid and play at the Bernabeu in two days."
The players sighed--
"Oh my god!"
"Bai Ran, is this true?!"
"I'm grateful to God that I can go to the Bernabeu to watch football in this life, but I can actually play at the Bernabeu?"
"I feel like I'm in a dream now!"
Bai Ran chuckled and patted Wang Yuchen on the head.
"You boy, your dream has come true!"
"Just don't be so scared that your legs will become weak when the time comes."
"This competition can raise a lot of money for you."
When Zhang Hefeng heard this, he immediately became interested.
"It seems so. If the friendly match is against a famous brand like Real Madrid, the tickets and broadcast rights can be sold for a lot of money..."
"Approximately how many can there be?"
Bai Ran paused for a moment, then said while eating: "Well... it must be around a million?"
"What the hell? Millions!??"
Everyone was shocked!
Where have they seen millions?
For these children from poor families, it is a huge sum of money to have a family of 30,000 to 50,000 yuan. To them, this is an astronomical figure!
Zhang Hefeng said: "So many!?"
Chen Zhijian: "Are all the millions given to us?"
"This is too scary. It will be enough for us brothers to live for a lifetime!"
Zuo Jiajun, as a senior manager of the company, resolutely resigned from his job as CEO and went directly to play football, regardless of the opposition of his family.
He still knows something.
"I'm afraid it's more than that."
"If I guessed correctly, one million is in euros, right?"
Bai Ran nodded: "Of course."
Bai Ran, who has been in Spain all year round, has become accustomed to using euros as a unit.
This time, everyone's CPU was burned out.
Millions of euros…
In other words, why don't you have seven or eight million?
Now... I'm really rich!
Bai Ran said: "Zhang Hefeng, you can keep this money until the time comes and make plans for the future of the team."
"After returning to China, I will have money in my hands and a stronger waist."
Zhang Hefeng waved his hands quickly: "Bai Ran, I absolutely can't ask for this money."
"You helped me so much, helped me get all the players back, and reorganized the team. It's too late for me to thank you, so how can you ask for so much money?"
"You should keep the money!"
Bai Ran chuckled.
"Hefeng, are you still polite to me?"
"What's more, do you know what this little money means to you?"
"It means you can establish a formal professional club."
"You can also develop your own golf course, open up many interpersonal relationships, and solve many problems that can be solved with money."
“All the previous difficulties have vanished.”
"However, if this money is given to me, do you know what it means to me?"
Zhang Hefeng shook his head, and the other players were also confused.
Bai Ran said calmly: "It's not even a month's salary."
…
Everyone looked at Bai Ran with wide eyes.
The world of rich people... I don't understand.
He is worthy of being Real Madrid's top star, and one month's salary in his hand is enough to run and establish a club.
How scary!
"So, you don't have to be polite to me. Take this money and invest it in the construction of the club."
"After all, you are just starting out and you need a lot of things."
"The building, the base, the field."
"Everything costs money."
"Everyone's club is followed by corporate investment, and you don't have any corporate partners, so you can only rely on yourself."
"I'm afraid this money is not enough as a start-up capital."
"Use it first."
Zhang Hefeng was very excited. For a team that came out of a school, these things were simply the ultimate luxury!
"Bai Ran, we do need this money, but I think we can calculate it this way, this is your investment."
"From now on, you will be the shareholder of our team, accounting for 100% of the shares."
At this time, Zuo Jiajun smiled. As an executive of the company, he also understood what was going on.
"Then you might as well sort out the levels now."
"Team - Nanlou Spirit"
"Captain: Zhang Hefeng"
"Coach: Bai Ran"
"Chairman: Bai Ran"
"Assistant coach: Bai Ran"
"Physiotherapist: Bai Ran"
"Scout: Bai Ran"
"Top management: Bai Ran!"
"Hahahahaha..."
This sentence made everyone burst into laughter.
But it does make sense. Bai Ran really became the backbone of a team by himself.
No one can disagree with this.
Bai Ran said, "I can accept everything else, but the team can't be called Nanlou Spirit."
"We have a new beginning and a new look."
"Farewell to the past, we have gone through thousands of sails and set sail again."
"In the future, our team will be more professional and will eventually break out of Asia and go global."
"How about we change the name to South Tower Athletics?"
"South Tower Athletics..."
Zhang Hefeng thought about it and decided that he should really change his name!
Nanlou Spirit, the name sounds like an amateur team!
It's better to have someone who can step onto the professional stage and sound majestic and domineering!
"good!"
"The South Building Competition is great!"
"Come on, let's go one by one! For the South Tower Competition!"
"cheers!"
More than a dozen people picked up their teacups and drank them all.
Laughter and joy echoed among them.
Nanlou Spirit was renamed Nanlou Athletic at this moment, and Bai Ran's dream was half completed.
Time soon came to the time agreed by Zidane.
Bai Ran had already communicated with the players of Nanlou Athletic and brought them to Madrid, Spain.
Here, every player felt the strong football atmosphere.
This century-level battle is about to begin.
Real Madrid's players are also eager to try and look forward to the arrival of this friendly match.
There is no doubt that the players of Nanlou Athletic are more excited than them.
Entering the locker room of the Bernabeu, their expressions are full of nervousness.
From childhood to adulthood, this is the football sanctuary they have dreamed of, and it is also a stadium that only the absolute top powerhouses are worthy of entering.
And today, they actually set foot there!
Bai Ran has also returned to the team and met with his teammates.
Bai Ran will definitely not show mercy at that time.
The media at the scene had never been so enthusiastic as today. Everyone hurriedly carried their cameras into the stadium.
Bai Ran notified Alice early in the morning to invite as many media as possible, preferably Asian media.
This would increase the popularity of Nanlou Athletics. Once it was broadcast on TV or the Internet, the name of Nanlou Athletics would definitely be known around the world.
This night was starry.
The crowded Bernabeu was already full.
Before the game started, all the major media rushed to report on the grand occasion of this game!
"Real Madrid VS Nanlou Athletics! The rise of Chinese football!"
"Friendly match! Real Madrid Invitational, Chinese football players, the classic competition of the Dream Team!"
There were even many posters with pictures of Cristiano Ronaldo and Zhang Hefeng facing each other with their arms crossed!
"Unheard of? A Chinese football team is going to the Bernabéu to play a key battle with Real Madrid!"
"Can this team that no one has heard of appear at the Bernabéu and give a performance that will shock everyone?"
"Let's wait and see!"
The Real Madrid team and Nanlou Athletic are already waiting in the locker room.
The commentator also started his daily work today.
"Hello, everyone!"
"The next game will be interesting!"
"Real Madrid had a 14-day break at the beginning of the season. During this period, Real Madrid arranged a friendly match between Real Madrid and Nanlou Athletic from China!"
"Next, let me send you the starting lineups of both teams!"
"As you can see, the goalkeeper of Real Madrid is still Navas, and the four defenders are Carvajal, Danilo, Varane and Ramos."
"In the midfield, Bai Ran is still in the starting lineup, Modric is absent, and Casemiro's injury still cannot support him to play this friendly match."
"So the other two midfielders are Toni Kroos and James Rodriguez."
"On the forward line, C Ronaldo leads, center Morata, and on the right side is Bale."
It can be seen that Real Madrid's lineup is still luxurious.
"On the other hand, the Nanlou Athletic team has a lineup that we have never seen before."
"They also adopted the 433 formation, and it seems that all the names in the team are Chinese!"
"The starting goalkeeper is Zuo Jiajun, who is only 18 years old and comes from China!"
"In terms of defense, the double central defenders are Chen Zhijian and his partner Xie Ting. Both central defenders are over 1.85 meters tall, which is amazing!"
"The two sidebacks are Liu Chen and Guo Yirui."
"In the midfield, their lineup is a single defensive midfielder and two attacking midfielders. Wang Xu will start as the defensive midfielder, and Zheng Haoran and Yang Yi will be the attacking midfielders."
"Three forwards, captain Zhang Hefeng will play on the left, Wang Yuchen, who is over 1.9 meters tall, will play in the middle, and Luo Yun will play on the right."
"Okay, with the referee's whistle, the game officially begins!"
This eye-catching battle has begun!
In China, no matter men, women, young or old, upon hearing the news, everyone turned on the TV to watch the game!
This is the first time that a Chinese team has set foot in the Bernabeu and played such a high-level game!
"Honey, look!"
"Is this a Chinese team playing against Real Madrid?"
"You must have seen it wrong, how could it be possible."
"No, it seems to be true! It's called Nanlou Athletic!"
"Ah?"
In front of the TV, many viewers tried to wipe their eyes, unable to believe what they saw!
It turned out to be an Asian face, playing against Real Madrid!
This is a historic scene!
The Chinese Football Association was also watching this game, and they all frowned and looked thoughtful.
"What's going on? What kind of team is this? Why were they invited to play against Real Madrid?"
"Go check, where are they from!"
"Also, contact the person in charge of their team immediately and tell him that I want to see him!"
This game seems to have caused a big sensation!
On the court, the situation of the game was also very tense.
The game had just started, and Real Madrid, as the host, took the lead in kicking off.
Morata passed the ball to Bai Ran in the midfield, and Zheng Haoran came to defend.
Bai Ran used his erratic body to easily turn around and pass Zheng Haoran!
Zheng Haoran was slightly stunned. Bai Ran's movements were so chic and elegant. This midfielder was so strong!
Bai Ran and himself were players in the same position. What Bai Ran could do, I would definitely not be able to do.
After Bai Ran turned around, he immediately saw his teammates running on the wing and passed the ball to Ronaldo.
After Ronaldo got the ball, he faced the young Chinese player Liu Chen and ate him alive!
With a big foot, he dribbled the ball several meters away!
The next step was a physical and speed battle between Ronaldo and Liu Chen!
But how could Liu Chen beat Ronaldo?
Ronaldo still did not lose his balance under the pull!
He rushed into the penalty area. One second before he stepped into the penalty area, Chen Zhijian flew over to block him. At this moment, Ronaldo kicked and shot directly!
For weak teams, long shots are sometimes the best way to score!
Because their goalkeepers are not good enough!
Whether it was the fans in front of the TV or the fans watching the live broadcast online, they all slapped their foreheads.
It's over, a goal was going to be scored in the first minute!
These two teams are not at the same level at all!
The Chinese football team went to play against Real Madrid, isn't this asking for trouble!
