Chapter 22 Korean?Chinese!
For Chen Tao, the first team means that his son is promising, and for Chen Yingxiong, it means more.
Chen Yingxiong is full of longing for the life of being transferred to the first team.Here he will have the opportunity to participate in the professional league, he will have the opportunity to score goals and celebrate in front of tens of thousands of live audiences and millions of TV audiences...
He will become a well-known star, get more lucrative signing contracts, get a lot of advertising endorsement opportunities, and of course... there will be no shortage of blond beauties who take the initiative to repost, enthusiastically, and then he will half push and half...
Of course, these are his visions, what he needs to do now is... meet his teammates in the first team.
Assistant coach Porter took Chen Yingxiong to the locker room, handed him over to the team captain Vladislav_Radimov (Vladislav_Radimov) and left.
It is the captain's job to introduce the new player to his team-mates.
The internationalization of Zenit's first team is indeed much better than that of the youth team. There are players from all over the world here, they speak different accents, and they have rich experience.
Such as the team captain Radimov.
The former star of hope in Russia, debuted at the Smyrna Football Academy in St. Petersburg, played for CSKA Moscow, Zaragoza, Dynamo Moscow, Levsky Sofia, Wings of the Soviet Samara, and finally Back to Zenit St. Petersburg.
He was a member of the Soviet Union's under-16 and under-21 teams, and later became a member of the Russian under-1996 team. He represented Russia in the [-] European Championship and performed well.He then moved to La Liga side Zaragoza.
However, his performance in Zaragoza was poor, and after a lackluster period, he went to the Bulgarian league.
Although Radimov has been to three countries, he does not speak English.It is a bit troublesome for two people to communicate without an interpreter by their side.
Radimov, who is 1.8 meters tall, had to look up at Chen Yingxiong.
A man with an oriental face, he thought to himself that this must be the teammate of the three Koreans—this new head coach really likes Koreans, and he brought four of them with him just after he took office!
If Chen Yingxiong knew what he was thinking, he would definitely... "You are Korean! Your whole family is Korean!"
As a Chinese who doesn't like Han, it's really normal to have such a reaction...
Radimov asked him in Russian: "Do you speak Russian, young man?"
Chen Yingxiong thought for a long time, and then replied in a very unproficient Russian: "I only know a little bit, I have just started to learn..." Although Yesenin's teaching method is very interesting, Chen Yingxiong also feels that he has made great progress, but there is still a lot to do. Not so fast that he could immediately chat with his teammates in fluent Russian.
Seeing his painful expression in Russian, Radimov knew that this kid hadn't started yet, and he thought it would be better to hand him over to the three Koreans, let them introduce him—although they It was also transferred this summer, but at least they have been here for three weeks...
So he took Chen Yingxiong to the South Korean player Li Hao who was changing clothes, and said to him: "Li, your compatriot, newcomer, please introduce..."
Li Hao was very happy when he heard that another Korean player came to the team.The Korean gang has a growing trend!
He turned his head, but what he saw was an unfamiliar face...
As a player of the South Korean national team, he knows all South Korean countries, but this person is very strange.
He thought to himself that maybe he came from the domestic league. Judging by his appearance, he is quite young, maybe a child...
Since he is his junior, the younger opponent should greet him first—as a rising star in Korea, Li Hao does not believe that a Korean player who plays football does not know him.So there is no need to introduce yourself at all, the other party should bow to him and say hello.
So he looked at Chen Yingxiong and said nothing.
Chen Yingxiong knows how many Korean players there are in Zenit St. Petersburg, but he can't tell who is who. Koreans, regardless of gender, look the same to him...
He thought Captain Radimov was introducing this new teammate to him, waiting for the new teammate to greet him.
And Radimov waited for Li Hao to take over his task...
The three of them stood in a circle like this, you look at me, I look at you.For about half a minute, no one spoke.
Others in the locker room were very curious when they first saw the captain leading a big man in. They kept staring at Chen Yingxiong and the others, but when they came to Li Hao, after Ratimov said a word, three Individuals seem to be frozen, without saying a word, looking at each other.
The locker room suddenly fell silent, and no one knew what happened.The people who were still talking also shut up and turned to look at the three people.
This eerie silence lasted for a long time.
Until Chen Yingxiong broke the silence, he asked in English: "What's wrong?"
Radimov could not understand English, and neither could Li Hao.
Li Hao also felt strange, and in a hurry he asked the captain in Korean: "Who is he?"
Both Radimov and Chen Yingxiong could not understand Korean, and Radimov asked Li Hao in Russian: "Don't you know each other?"
Two other South Korean players, Kim Dong-jin and Hyun Yong-min, also joined together. Unfortunately, neither of them could speak Russian, so they could only ask Li Hao in Korean: "What's going on?"
Li Hao shook his head and frowned: "I don't know..."
The Russian players surrounded Radimov and asked him what happened.
"I don't know, I asked Li to introduce the team to his compatriots..." Radimov pointed to Li Hao, then to Chen Yingxiong.
"Korean again?" exclaimed the team's right back Alexandr_Anyukov.After yelling, he realized that he shouldn't have said that in front of his Korean teammates, so he quickly looked at the three Koreans and found that they didn't notice him, so he was relieved.
"Isn't it? The head coach really likes Korean players...I think if this goes on, we have to change our name to Zenit Seoul, right?" Anyukov is obviously not the only one who thinks there are too many Koreans in the team.
Of course, Radimov must put the unity of the team first. He stopped his subordinates from discussing this, but asked: "Stop arguing, the problem now is... how do we communicate with them?"
"Does he speak English?" asked the team's Norwegian centre-back Erik Hagen (Erik_Hagen).He joined Zenit last season from Norway and speaks English.
Radimov looked at him as if seeing a savior—"Ask him!"
Hagen used to say to Chen Yingxiong, "Hi, hello." He used English.
After the eerie silence, the locker room fell into a burst of noise, and Chen Yingxiong didn't know what happened during the whole process. He could only stand alone in the locker room, at a loss, and his ears were full of unfamiliar languages.
Hearing those people talking, he didn't know what they were talking about, and a sense of estrangement was forming.Chen Yingxiong swears in his heart that he must find Yesenin to learn Russian well when he returns home!
Just then he heard Hagen's English!
That feeling... was as exciting as hearing Chinese while eating at "Ruilongju". He nodded quickly: "Hello. Can you speak English?"
Hagen smiled.It will be easy for this kid to speak English, at least he can communicate...
He patted Chen Yingxiong on the shoulder as a sign of friendship, and then he asked, "Are you Korean?"
"Huh?" Chen Yingxiong froze for a moment.
There was loud laughter in the Zenit dressing room.
Everyone was amused by what had just happened.
Radimov also laughed, and he apologized to Chen Yingxiong through Hagen as an interpreter. "I'm sorry, since there are already three Korean teammates in the team, so when I see an Eastern face, I think it's Korean..."
Li Hao, on the other hand, couldn't laugh or cry - he was not happy when someone confused Chinese with Korean.As a leader of the young generation of Korean football, he looks down on Chinese players. For more than 20 years, the Chinese team has been invincible against South Korea, giving South Korean players full confidence and pride when facing Chinese players.How could the captain confuse himself with the Chinese?Obviously the difference is obvious...
Chen Yingxiong was really angry when he knew that he was regarded as a Korean at first, but he couldn't help but accept Radimov's sincere apology.He didn't know Li Hao's thoughts, but his thoughts were the same as Li Hao's—how could they confuse Chinese with Koreans?Koreans have such small eyes...
After the misunderstanding was resolved, Hagen took Chen Yingxiong to get acquainted with his teammates.
Hagen introduced him one by one.
This is the goalkeeper Kamil_Contofalsky, this is the goalkeeper Vyacheslav_Malafeev, this is the defender Pavel_Mares, about the same size as you The tall one is center back Martin_Skrtel, that person is Aleksandr Anyukov...Of course, no one can miss this person, he is the number one of our team The star, who sent Andrey_Arshavin nicknamed "New Czar" (Andrey_Arshavin)!
In fact, Chen Yingxiong didn't know how powerful Arshavin was, but after seeing Arshavin's appearance, he thought this kid was about his age.I thought it was amazing to be called the "new tsar" at such a young age!
His teammates have welcomed his arrival, whether it is an old player or a new player, it is the same.
Only Li Hao's expression was a little awkward - he thought that Yingxiong Chen was his junior, and he was waiting for Yingxiong Chen to say hello to him, but he didn't expect that he was waiting for the news that the other party was Chinese...
There was nothing embarrassing about Chen Yingxiong, as long as he proved that he was not Korean, but Chinese.
In the end, captain Radimov introduced Chen Yingxiong's background to everyone—"He was transferred from the youth team. I hope everyone can help him a lot!"
Some people are very interested in Chen Yingxiong, while others seem to be absent-minded.
There were many players transferred from the youth team, but unfortunately none of them could stay for long, so they went to the reserve team.Who knows how long this big man can last in the first team?
Perhaps the reserve team is his final destination.
Those who are interested in Chen Yingxiong are because of his size.
He even looks taller than Martin Skrtel, the current two tallest men in the team, and goalkeeper Kamil Kontefalski...
Martin Skrtel, as an interpreter through Hagen, asked Chen Yingxiong: "How tall are you, Chen?"
Chen Yingxiong replied: "1.9 meters two."
"Ah, my team's highest record has been broken." Skrtel sighed after hearing this answer, and then he patted Chen Yingxiong on the shoulder: "Congratulations, now you are the tallest person in Zenit Already!"
This is Chen Yingxiong's first meeting with his teammates in the first team.
