Midfielder Ruler

Tang Zheng was able to obtain the so-called most rigorous German driver's license in the world in such a short period of time. In addition to his excellent learning ability, the driving instructor Thomas Wolff also contributed a lot. As a fan, he helped Tang Zheng a lot.

So after Tang Zheng got his driver's license, he specially invited him to a meal as a thank you.

At this time, it was only one day before Dortmund resumed training in the second half of the 2009-2010 Bundesliga season.

Most of Dortmund's first team members returned to their residence in Dortmund, Tang Zheng saw Hummels and Schmelzer at the riverside.

From the analysis of their expressions, it is obvious that they have not recovered from the state of vacation.

Although the Germans are known for their rigor and staidness, many young people today have changed. Hummels and Schmelzer are particularly obvious. They returned from tourist attractions with unfinished faces and thoughts. Beaches and beauties.

When they learned that Tang Zheng had obtained his driver's license, they were very surprised.

"My God, you got your driver's license?"

The German driver's license is for life, so the difficulty of obtaining it can be said to be the most difficult in the world. Hummels, who was still in Munich at the time, took the test for half a year.

Schmelzer was slightly better, but also took the test for five months.

Compared with Tang Zheng's time before and after adding up to less than a month, it really pales in comparison.

Get the ax out of class!

"Of course! I don't even look at who I am." Tang Zheng naturally raised his head, leaving a chin.

After that, he looked curiously at the car fan Hummels again: "Any car introductions?"

"Do you want to buy a car?"

"Of course!" Tang Zheng patted his chest and said, "If you have your driver's license and don't buy a car, what are you using it for?"

"That's true."

Immediately, Tang Zheng and Schmelzer took Hummels' Audi to Düsseldorf, the capital of North Rhine Westphalia, 80 kilometers away from Dortmund.

As the capital of North Rhine Westphalia, all walks of life are top-notch.

Except football.

As for why I came to Dusseldorf, it was because there happened to be a large auto show here at the beginning of the year.

Tang Zheng didn't know what car to buy, and Hummels and Schmelzer didn't have any good suggestions, so they had to come to the auto show to choose.

Cars and off-road vehicles were directly ignored by Tang Zheng, he preferred the feeling of a sports car.

So he fell in love with the dynamic Lamborghini llrd5604pyder at a glance.

The power of the car is very sufficient, the maximum power can reach 562 horsepower, it only takes 34 seconds from 0kh to 100kh, and the top speed can reach 320kh.

"That's it!"

In terms of color selection, Tang Zheng preferred Dortmund's main color yellow, then snapped his fingers at the staff, and directly handed over the bank card in his hand.

"It's decided?"

Hummels and Schmelzer looked at the cheerful Tang Zheng and said in unison.

This is 27.25 million euros!

"Well! It's decided."

Tang Zheng glanced at them depressedly, why did he feel that it was the two of them who paid the money?

"What a rich man!"

Tang Zheng smiled. In fact, it really has nothing to do with being rich or not. During the Christmas period, he earned nearly two million euros. Nike and Huawei paid after tax. The annual salary for the 2009 and 2010 seasons was only used to buy a house. There are more than one million euros left, which adds up to more than three million euros.

Only 27.23 million euros, not much.

Of course, Tang Zheng didn't dare to speak his mind, otherwise Hummels and Schmelzer would look at him like aliens.

They are also the main force, so why is there such a big gap?

Tang Zheng didn't drive this yellow Lamborghini Gallardo 560 back to Dortmund. He paid more than 200,000 euros for the car, but he could only drive Hummels' small Audi back slowly. The car was owned by Hummels. And Schmelzer took turns driving back to Dortmund.

It looks like tears!

the car I bought,

The first time I didn't drive it by myself!

Fortunately, after returning to the lakeside, Tang Zheng finally got back the ownership of the car.

In the evening, he took a selfie with his mobile phone and sent it to Weibo: the belated European Golden Boy Award and South American Footballer of the Year gift.

Although this time period is close to the early morning in China, there are also many night owls, so many fans who follow Tang Zheng's meagerness began to check Weibo.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and meagerness is also a place of right and wrong.

Originally, Tang Zheng just wanted to express his excitement, just like ordinary people in China buy a house, buy a car and set off firecrackers to entertain relatives and friends, to share with fans.

However, some unbalanced fans thought that Tang Zheng was showing off his wealth in a different direction, and he got carried away with complacency just after winning the European Golden Boy Award and South American Footballer of the Year.

There are also some pessimistic villains who say that Tang Zheng is going to be over, and Dortmund is also going to be over.

Of course, this is only a small part, most of the fans congratulated Tang Zheng.

They just signed a contract with Nike and won the European Golden Boy Award and South American Footballer of the Year. Why buy a car to celebrate?

Which foreign star does not have a sports car?

Those villains are like rats at the festival, and they quickly become everyone shouting and beating.

But Tang Zheng didn't know this, he quit after posting on Weibo, and went back home to continue enriching himself.

January 9, 2010, which is the first day of training before the start of the second half of the 2009-2010 Bundesliga season.

The Dortmund players who drove to the parking lot of the Stobelari Training Center one after another were surprised. Who bought the latest Lamborghini Gallardo 5064pyder?

And it's the brightest yellow.

who?

Even the head coach Klopp is guessing which player has bought a new sports car.

In the previous news reports, he paid attention to this car. The bare car starts at 220,000 euros, which means that this car costs at least 250,000 euros.

tut tut

Especially now that the annual salary of many players in the team is only about one million euros, more than 200,000 euros seems a bit extravagant.

Could it be Kyle?

This possibility was immediately denied by Klopp.

Although Kyle holds the club's highest salary, he is not the kind of player who likes to show off.

Could it be Tang Zheng?

That's a big possibility, young man.

But it was also denied by Klopp, because in his mind Tang Zheng was a very stable young man, and he probably wouldn't spend such a large sum of money to buy a supercar.

Besides, he doesn't seem to have a driver's license yet.

However, when he knew the result, like most of the team members, he was obviously stunned for a moment.

Except, of course, for Hummels and Schmelzer.

It stands to reason that for a player like Tang Zheng who plays football steadily, he should choose a high-performance off-road vehicle to suit his style.

It's no wonder that Klopp didn't guess right.

Immediately, the team entered the first resume training after the winter break.

The holiday is not long, that is, 20 days, but the figures of many players have been deformed, especially those from South America.

The local players are not bad, especially the vice-captain Kyle, whose physical indicators are almost the same as those in the first half of the league.

What surprised Klopp the most was Tang Zheng, who was flying around from the sky during this winter break.

From Germany to the United States, from the United States to China, from China to Uruguay, and finally back to Dortmund.

It felt like there was no extra time, but it just so happened that Tang Zheng's physical condition was the best among all the team members.

So only he and the vice-captain Kyle in the team don't need to follow the physical coach Oliver Bartlett for hard recovery training.

Originally, according to the goal at the beginning of the season, Dortmund coached by Klopp only won the top four, but now they are only three points away from Werder Bremen, who is third in the league, so he has greater ambitions for the team's results.

Now that we are only three points away from third place, why not take a step forward?

The biggest reason for human progress is because of great ambition!

The third place in the league can qualify for the UEFA Champions League next season, which means that they have the opportunity to play in the UEFA Champions League!

When was the last time Dortmund played in the Champions League?

It was the 2003-2004 season seven years ago, but at that time Dortmund was facing a severe economic crisis and was on the verge of bankruptcy, which resulted in the failure to break through the qualifying rounds.

Strictly speaking, Dortmund's participation in the Champions League dates back to the 2002-2003 season.

Klopp is a very passionate head coach, but also a very emotional head coach. He is easy to get emotional, just like the Dortmund he is coaching now. He just regards himself as a native Dortmund. Standing at the top of the Bundesliga again, he is very strict with those players who are overweight and not in physical condition.

Tang Zheng and Kyle looked at their suffering teammates and thought with lingering fear: "Fortunately, I am very self-disciplined this winter."

Time passes day by day, but the transfer market this winter seems to be in a bad mood. Even Real Madrid, Barcelona, ​​Manchester City and other teams that are quite crazy in the two summer transfer windows have no voice. The same is true for the Bundesliga. The team is very low-key.

No one thought that this winter, renting would become the main theme.

In the past few years, there has not been a single transfer of tens of millions of euros. So far, the highest transfer fee is still Wolfsburg who spent 5 million euros to introduce Revell from Gremio in Brazil.

Klopp would like to introduce some players to Zorc, but he has no choice but to spend more than 20 million euros in transfer fees this summer, and is now cash-strapped.

But what makes Klopp more satisfied is that the team's minor injuries have basically recovered, and they can barely survive the second half of the season, but it is not easy to compete for the top three.

The performances of several forwards in the team this season were not satisfactory. If Tang Zheng hadn't performed well in many games, he probably wouldn't have ranked fourth in the league.

At 5:30 p.m. local time on the 17th in Germany, Dortmund ushered in the first game of the second half of the 2009-2010 Bundesliga season. They challenged Cologne away.

In this game, Dortmund's offensive line performed well. Barrios and Landelof scored goals respectively, but the defense line was not worrying, and they also conceded two goals. In the end, they drew with the home team Cologne 2:2.

To be continued.
