Fox in the Penalty Area

There is more than one football field in the Olympic Park where the entire Olympic Village is located. Teams participating in the national competition can apply to the organizing committee for time to use the field for training.

Then the organizing committee will negotiate with the park management, and finally give the field to the applying team.

On the morning of the second day after the first round, the right to use one of the courts belonged to Dongchuan Middle School.

When Dongchuan Middle School was training on this field, some people with cameras came to the sidelines one after another.

They are all journalists.

"Wow! After winning a game, the treatment is different. There are even reporters watching our training." Hu Lai exclaimed.

"I think you're thinking too much, Hu Lai." Mao Xiao said, "They should just come to see Luo Kai."

During the middle interval of the training, when everyone was resting, Mao Xiao's words were confirmed—Luo Kai, led by the head coach Li Ziqiang, came to the sidelines and was interviewed by the reporters.

Although they had been interviewed by reporters after yesterday's game, now the reporters have new questions.

"Tch!" Hu Lai snorted uncomfortably after seeing this scene. "It feels like we are all his foils."

He thought of the reports about him in the media: Luo Kai's teammates.

He felt that he needed to practice more celebrations. He tried to use Ronaldo's celebrations twice before, but he failed because he didn't stand firmly when he landed.

He wants to successfully perform this celebration in the national competition, so that everyone will remember him.

The only pity is that only the number is printed on the high school game jersey, not the player's name. Otherwise, after this set of celebrations, TV viewers can not only see his number, but also remember his name.

Thinking of this, he stood up from the turf.

"Hey, Hu Lai, what are you doing?" Mao Xiao was a little nervous, thinking that Hu Lai was going to rub the camera again. At that time, there was only one media, Goal, and the embarrassment was only embarrassing in front of one media, and the impact was still limited. Now that there are so many media, including the official media, if you go up and shame yourself like this, then the joke will be big...

"Extra practice." Hu Lai said without looking back.

"Additional practice? We just finished practicing... What do you want to practice more?" Mao Xiao asked suspiciously.

"A celebration."

After speaking, Hu Lai ran out, jumped high, turned 180 degrees in the air, swung his hands crossed from his chest, and then landed... After landing, he couldn't maintain his balance. He took a few steps back and fell on his back on the turf of the training ground.

But he quickly got up from the ground, without even patting his buttocks, and continued to repeat this set of movements.

This time he rushed out not so fast, and the height of the jump was not so high, but he stopped when he landed.

But obviously, he was not satisfied with the effect. Everyone saw that Hu Lai shook his head and continued to practice his celebration.

The teammates just watched Hu Lai retry this celebration over and over again, and it could be seen that Hu Lai was not trying to pretend to be a monster in front of the reporters to attract attention this time, but was taking this matter seriously.

"Why is he so obsessed with this celebration... Is there any explanation for this celebration?"

"do not know……"

"Wow, Hu Lai is sure that he will definitely score in the next game?"

"I think he thinks that he will definitely play..."

"Doesn't that mean Luo Kai can't score?"

Someone turned their attention to Luo Kai who was being interviewed. He was surrounded by reporters, and he really looked like a professional star.

※※※

Because there are too many media reporters who want to interview Luo Kai, they need to queue up, and even if they queue up, some reporters are queued after the training.

Sun Yonggang was the reporter who was scheduled to interview Luo Kai after training.

Seeing Luo Kai being interviewed by the reporters, everyone scrambling to put the microphones towards him and point the camera at him, Sun Yonggang thought of Chen Xingyi.

There is no sense of disobedience in replacing Luo Kai with Chen Xingyi.

Because Chen Xingyi in the national competition last year also enjoyed such treatment.

After scoring twice in the first game and helping Shuguang High School, which entered the national competition for the first time, eliminate the defending champion Chongwen Middle School, he quickly became the target of the media.

The official of the national competition also promoted him as a key star.

Of course, this is also related to Chen Xingyi's good appearance.

Otherwise, even if they are ugly, they may not get such media resources even if they can score goals.

Looking at the appearance alone, Luo Kai's appearance is even better...

Sun Yonggang saw that Luo Kai was very calm when facing the interview on the official website of the National Competition, and he felt a lot more balanced.

This child should be like this all the time, and his expression doesn't seem to change very much at ordinary times. That's fine, otherwise it's hard to imagine what it's like for such a handsome guy to lose his composure while laughing... Didn't those celebrities and idols also get caught by fans or passers-by who failed to manage their facial expressions?

Sun Yonggang smiled, turned his gaze to other places, and then he saw the figure doing strange movements on the other side of the court.

He was very familiar with this figure, it was the young man who kept getting into the camera while interviewing Luo Kai.

It has a slightly strange name, it seems to be called "Hu Lai", um, it really lives up to its name.

Sun Yonggang couldn't help laughing when he remembered what happened back then.

This naughty boy also scored a goal in the national competition.

So what is he doing now?

Do you want to practice more?

This set of moves looks familiar... Isn't this the set of celebration moves he made after scoring a goal against Xizi Middle School?

Thinking of this, Sun Yonggang waved to the photographer who was partnering with him: "Xiao Li, come on, let's take a picture of him."

He pointed to Hu Lai who was jumping up and down again and again on the court.

※※※

Hu Lai tried to slow down when he was sprinting, and also lowered his height when he jumped up. Although he could guarantee that he would not fall to the ground, he always felt that this set of movements did not have a sense of strength, and he did not have the kind of domineering arrogance when he was careful. Not good looking. So he speeded up again, following Ronaldo's template in his mind, and performed this set of movements again.

As a result, he fell on all fours without any suspense.

Tsk, this movement looks simple, but it's not easy to do... It requires strong waist strength and legs support, so as to fight against inertia.

Just as Hu Lai was summing up the experience and lessons in his heart, a face came up.

"Excuse me, student Hu Lai, what are you doing?"

He was taken aback for a moment, and then recognized the other party: "Ah, it's the uncle who came to our school to interview..."

Sun Yonggang smiled and said, "My surname is Sun, you can call me Brother Sun."

"Oh, yes, Brother Sun."

"I see you jumping up and down over and over here, what are you doing?" Sun Yonggang asked.

Hu Lai got up from the ground and said to Sun Yonggang, "I'm practicing the celebration."

"Practice... the celebration?" Sun Yonggang really guessed it right.

"Well, I have never done this set of celebrations successfully. I want to practice it seriously, so that in the game, I may be able to complete it successfully after I score a goal? Actually, this set of celebrations is very handsome. , Brother Sun. Just jump up, turn around in the air, stand firmly when it lands, and wave your hands back to reveal the number on the back——Brother Sun, don’t you think that last blow was very explosive?”

Sun Yonggang thought for a while, then shook his head: "I'm sorry, judging from your demonstration actions..."

Hu Lai was a little depressed: "That's because I didn't do it well. When I do it, look again, it will definitely explode!"

Hu Lai is very confident about this, because this celebratory action has been imitated and sought after by countless people in that world, and the effect is naturally nothing to say.

Sun Yonggang didn't dwell on the topic of the celebration, but shifted to Hu Lai's goal in the national competition: "Student Hu Lai, don't you feel lucky to score a goal in the national competition for the first time? "

Hu Lai stared back and asked, "Why do you feel lucky? Isn't this a manifestation of my strength?"

Sun Yonggang thought that the ball was not Luo Kai attracting all the defensive players, you can easily catch the ball and shoot in an empty space where there are no defensive players? What strength can this ball reflect?

However, he didn't destroy a boy's self-esteem, but changed his words with a smile: "Yes, it's strength. So what's your vision for Hu Lai next?"

"I want to be a professional player!" Hu Lai clenched his fists and said with his head raised.

"..." Sun Yonggang almost failed to control his expression. Originally, he just wanted to ask Hu Lai what goals he had for his next performance in this year's National Competition.

Who wants to ask you about your career plan!

Wait... career planning? You just scored a goal in the national competition, and you want to participate in professional competitions? Yes, that's right, starting from this national competition, there will be scouts from professional football clubs coming to watch the games, paying attention to those teenagers who have shown outstanding talents...

But there are very few people who can really be selected to play professional teams. Such a "privilege" only belongs to players like Chen Xingyi. Team phase.

What did you kid say that you want to play professional football... Aren't you afraid that the wind will flash your tongue?

※※※

When Sun Yonggang was having a conversation with Hu Lai, the photographer kept shooting in circles.

This scene was under pressure from the other Dongchuan Middle School players, and they immediately understood why Hu Lai had to practice some celebration at this time - this kid simply wanted to attract the attention of the media reporters!

And let him succeed again!

"Damn, insidious! Cunning!"

"Stop complaining, let you pretend to be monsters on the court like Hu Lai, can you have no psychological burden?"

"Well... I really can't do it..."

Everyone talked a lot, and the rest time between training sessions was over.

Li Ziqiang blew the whistle again to let everyone return to the training ground.

The media reporters surrounding Luo Kai walked back to the sidelines.

Sun Yonggang, who was interviewing Hu Lai on the other side, also left with the photographer.

After walking out of the training ground, the photographer asked strangely, "Brother Sun, aren't we here to interview Luo Kai? Why did you go to interview that kid?"

"Anyway, it's idle. I think it's interesting for him to practice the celebrations alone. I've seen many people who practiced extra for themselves, but this is the first time I've seen someone who practiced extra celebrations. Since it’s interesting, let’s record it. When the time comes to add Luo Kai as an easter egg after the interview video, it will be more interesting... You don’t know how boring Luo Kai is in the interview .”

"Then the part where he says he wants to play professional football should also be included?"

"This..." Sun Yonggang hesitated for a moment, logically speaking, adding this sentence may make the video full of dramatic conflict and topicality. A player who was just lucky enough to score a goal in a national competition shouted that he was going to play professional football.

But in the end he shook his head: "No need. The focus of our report is Luo Kai. Don't let other topics dilute this focus."

※※※

As soon as the Dongchuan Middle School football team's training ended, Sun Yonggang rushed onto the field with a cameraman, stopped Luo Kai, and started interviewing him.

He thought of what Hu Lai said to him, inspired him, and asked first: "Student Luo Kai, after you shine in the national competition, do you have any plans for your future? I'm not talking about the future of the national competition. I mean the farther future..."

Luo Kai's answer was very firm: "I want to play professional football."

Hu Lai, who was not far away, heard these words and cast a concerned look at Luo Kai.

Sun Yonggang laughed when he heard the words:

That's right, that's the answer he wanted! Under the new policy of this national competition, there is such a star player who directly expresses his yearning for professional football, which is also of great benefit to the promotion of the linkage between the national competition and professional football.

In this regard, Luo Kai cooperated more than Chen Xingyi.

Chen Xingyi has been avoiding topics related to professional football until now, so that some people are guessing whether he does not want to play professional football...

If this is the case, it would be a pity...

Yes, everyone felt that it would be a pity if a talented player like Chen Xingyi could not enter professional football!

※※※

"I heard it, you actually copied my answer!" After returning to the dormitory, Hu Lai pointed at Luo Kai and said.

"What did I copy you for?" Luo Kai was at a loss.

"The reporter asked me about my future plans, and I said I want to play professional football!"

"I didn't hear your answer!" Luo Kai felt that Hu Lai was simply crazy... Then he suddenly reacted, looked at Hu Lai and asked, "You said you want to play professional football?"

"Yes, what's the matter?"

Rocky smiled.

Hu Lai said angrily, "Don't look down on people!"

"Why do you want to play professional football?" Luo Kai asked.

"Then why do you want to play professional football?" Hu Lai didn't bother to answer such a question, and simply retaliated against him in the same way. In fact, he doesn't care why Xin Luo Kai plays professional football, so he doesn't want to tell Luo Kai the reason, and there is no way to tell Luo Kai his reason-he can't say that he is cheating, and it is a waste of not playing professional football. right?

Who would have thought that Luo Kai would answer his question frankly: "Because of Li Qingqing."

"..."

Hu Lai was speechless, he knew that Luo Kai had a crush on Li Qingqing, but he didn't expect Luo Kai to say it so directly!

"So you went to play professional football because of Li Qingqing, and you want to play professional football?" Hu Lai still couldn't believe it.

Luo Kai nodded.

"Damn, big brother, can you be a little more serious!"

"I'm serious about Li Qingqing." When he said this, Luo Kai was still staring at Hu Lai.

He saw the other party rolled his eyes and muttered, "Crazy..."

"What about you? Why do you want to play professional football?" Luo Kai asked again.

"I like football, I want to play professional football!" Hu Lai also answered very confidently.

"If you like football, you have to play professional football. Everyone can play professional football." Luo Kai said with some disdain.

"You asked me why I want to play professional football, not if I can. Whether I can play professional football is none of your business!"

Luo Kai was stunned for a moment, thinking that what Hu Lai said was right, why worry about it?

So a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he ended the conversation with Hu Lai.

Hu Lai didn't bother to pay attention to him, and the room became quiet again.
