Heroes of the Restricted Zone

Chapter 57 The Hero's "Special Offer"

Although they were only photographed by the reporters before going to a nightclub, and Chen Yingxiong was covered in bruises, he kept the Eat, Drink and Play Orchestra in the first team instead of being assigned to the reserve team.But soon the Eat, Drink and Play Orchestra still found a time to go out for a gathering.

This time there is a newcomer - Andrei Arshavin.

Since Arshavin was there, everyone didn't go clubbing. Chen Yingxiong took them directly to Ruilongju for dinner.

Ren Tianhua, the owner of Ruilongju, was very happy when he saw Chen Yingxiong. During this period of time, there were more reports about Chen Yingxiong in the media. At first, it was him going to the bar, and later it turned into a report about Chen Yingxiong performing a hat-trick. .Ren Tianhua was hooked watching it.

When he saw the news about Chen Yingxiong clubbing at first, he was still worried that Chen Yingxiong would lose himself in fame and fortune like those Chinese players who are a little famous but don't know what they are.Unexpectedly, he immediately scored a hat-trick in the game, and severely responded to the media's criticism and doubts about him.

Although Ren Tianhua doesn't know much about football, he can tell that Chen Yingxiong is quickly becoming a new hero in this city.Because those Russian college students who work in his shop will talk about Chen Yingxiong from Zenit St. Petersburg in space and time.

Of course, my compatriots are happy to be famous, but Ren Tianhua has a little regret, that is... the last time Chen Yingxiong came, he didn't even take a group photo.

There is a wall in his small shop with many photos of customers and his boss. There are some ordinary tourists and some celebrities.

But his wish was soon fulfilled... because Chen Yingxiong brought his teammates here to eat again.

And this time it brought a big-name star-Andrei Arshavin!

Ren Tianhua took a photo with the five people with a smile on his face, and then ordered the kitchen to prepare two kinds of dishes, one is of course sweet and sour Chinese food for Russians, and the other is authentic Sichuan food for Chen Yingxiong.

Denisov saw that Chen Yingxiong had special treatment, so he quit: "Hey, hero. I am the head of the regiment, right? Why do you have such treatment?"

Chen Yingxiong is tasting Maoxuewang. He feels that although the taste is not as good as the one in his hometown, it is probably considered authentic in St. Petersburg. At least it has a spicy and delicious taste.

He looked at Denisov, then at the other three, and they all stared at him with the same eyes, as if they were eating alone.

He smiled, and a teasing thought flashed through his mind. "Ah, this... I don't think these dishes suit your taste..."

The more he veiled his rejection, the more excited and interested his teammates became.

"No, if you still treat us as friends, we will eat these dishes!"

As Denisov said, he stretched out his fork, put a slice in his mouth, and...

Chen Yingxiong turned red instantly when he saw Denisov!

Russia is Eastern Slavs, fair skinned, so when Denisov blushes it's very, very obvious... like a monkey's butt.

Denisov, who was so hot, grabbed the beaker at hand and drank it in one gulp... Then it was even more tragic, because he poured a large glass of vodka...

Vodka is notoriously strong alcohol.

So Denisov grabbed another cup next to him.

"That's mine..." Anyukov wanted to stop him, but it was too late.He saw that Denisov had thrown his neck back, and the glass was empty.

"...vodka..." he murmured.

Denisov felt his entire throat and mouth burning!It's as if a raging flame can be spewed out of one mouth.

He wanted to speak, but nothing came out.In the end, I held back all my strength and roared: "It's so fucking hot!!"

Chen Yingxiong was already laughing so hard that he lay on the table and slapped it hard.

Denisov drank two full bottles of ice-cold mineral water before he could control the hot feeling. Even so, one of his eyes was red up to the neck, and there were a lot of beads of sweat on his forehead.

It can be seen how embarrassed he was just now.

"I said this dish is definitely not to your taste..." Chen Yingxiong shrugged and spread his hands with an innocent look on his face.

"Damn..." Denisov admitted.

Arshavin, who was next to him, saw Denisov's embarrassed look just now, and asked, "Is it really that scary?"

Chen Yingxiong shook his head: "Just drink some water if you are afraid of spicy food, but don't drink this..." Chen Yingxiong pointed to the vodka in their glasses.

"You are wrong, hero! For Russians, vodka is water!" Anyukov said sternly.

"Water is vodka!" adds Krzakov next to him.

Chen Yingxiong curled his lips. Sichuan people drink like Sichuan food, and I have never seen such an exaggeration before. They are really a group of old men who have never seen the world!
Denisov looked at the colorful dishes in front of Chen Yingxiong with some hesitation: "But... thinking about it now, I think the taste is okay..."

"Really?" Arshavin was obviously also very interested in the "special Chinese food" Chen Yingxiong ate.

"Really!" Denisov nodded vigorously.

"Then let's try it!"

The other three reached out their hands to the dish in front of Chen Yingxiong.

then……

Now in front of Chen Yingxiong, there are four monkey butts!

After having a meal with Arshavin, Chen Yingxiong felt that the relationship between the two of them was closer than before.In the past, when everyone dealt with each other, they were just teammates, but now they can be regarded as "teammates with better relationships".

So it's best to win over feelings at the wine table...

In fact, Chinese and Russians can find a common language when talking about feelings at the wine table.

Of course, the relationship between Chen Yingxiong and Arshavin has not yet reached the point where he can joke casually like he did with Denisov, Anyukov, and Kerzakov.

After the match against Soviet Wings, the league ushered in a truce period. Because the national team recruited players for the match, the league was suspended, and the next round of the league had to wait until October [-]th.

The Youdeni Park training base suddenly became much deserted, because many international players have been transferred to the national team.

Those non-national football players, of course, still train according to the usual plan.It is impossible to say that the non-national footballers will also have a holiday...

So for Chen Yingxiong, except for the slightly deserted locker room, there are no other changes.He just seized this time to train hard and accumulate experience for himself.

It takes [-] experience to upgrade from the fifth level to the sixth level, and now he has only risen by one-third.He used to think that upgrading was quick and easy, and he could jump up a lot after hanging up the phone overnight.But now when he needed more experience to level up, he realized that the experience bar was so slow!

During this period, Advocaat arranged a warm-up match for the first team against... their own youth team.

After Chen Yingxiong left the youth team for a month, he finally saw his teammates in the youth team and head coach Popovich again.

Everyone greeted for a while on the sidelines.

The teammates of the youth team saw that the Chinese kid who had just joined the team not long ago had already become the hottest main striker of the first team, scoring five goals in three rounds of the league, and they were also envious.

Seeing Popovich, Chen Yingxiong naturally bowed again, thanking Popovich for his cultivation.Although we haven't been together for a long time, he feels that Popovich is a head coach who is serious and responsible for treating the players well, and...can get along well with young people, so that he, a new player in the team, doesn't feel any barrier and integrates into the team The speed is very fast.

Popovich was surprised that Chen Yingxiong still had such an attitude when he saw him. He thought that Chen Yingxiong should be as smug as any young man who was proud of himself, but Chen Yingxiong hadn't forgotten him yet.

He was suddenly very happy.

Patting Chen Yingxiong on the shoulder, he said: "No matter when or what happens, don't forget the afternoon you joined Zenit."

He was referring to the afternoon when Chen Yingxiong defeated the Zenit youth team and proved his strength to everyone with practical actions.

Chen Yingxiong nodded: "I see, coach!"

Popovich winked at him: "Do well on the first team!"

In this warm-up match against the youth team, Chen Yingxiong started on behalf of the first team and was replaced after halftime.He once again demonstrated his header power in the game, and his former teammates in the youth team deeply realized that after several rounds of training in the Super League, Chen Yingxiong is better than before in many aspects, isn't that A quantifiable level of power, but purely a feeling—the central defender Krotkoff, who has been competing with Chen Yingxiong since the test before joining the team, clearly feels that Chen Yingxiong is more difficult to deal with than before.He feels that the hero has completely broken away from the level of the youth team and has become a qualified professional player.

In the warm-up match, Chen Yingxiong once again completed a hat-trick, of course they all scored with their heads.

But no matter how many goals are scored in the warm-up match, it is useless. The gold content of the goals in the warm-up match is too low, so the reward experience is much less.

In addition to the upgrade, there is another thing that Chen Yingxiong has been worrying about, and that is... money!

He is very short of money now, and the more than 2 yuan owed by his family has not yet been repaid. Although he is helping to change it, he can only earn [-] yuan a month, excluding the money he needs for his own expenses. , even if the rest of the money is sent to his father, it is just a drop in the bucket.

However, the contract at that time was signed when he first joined the team. At that time, he had nothing, no reputation, and had not proved his strength in the same level of competition. For Russia, he was nothing like an amateur player. the difference.

It's different now, he has scored five goals in three league rounds, and also scored a hat-trick in one game.

He felt that he had the capital to negotiate terms with the club.

You need to be famous as soon as possible, and you need to raise your salary as soon as possible...

First, though, he had to have an agent.
