"Sister Yumeng, although I want to be a peerless superstar, in fact, I don't particularly like playing football, let alone become a professional player and play football every day." Peng Zhan said.
Lin Yumeng was stunned: "If you don't become a professional player, how can you become a superstar?"
"I want to play again in critical life-and-death battles. I don't want to play in ordinary games that are insignificant." Peng Zhan said.
"What kind of game do you think is a life and death battle?" Lin Yumeng asked.
"For example, in the World Cup qualifiers, when the Dragon Country team is on the verge of elimination and it's a life-and-death battle that determines whether they can qualify, I will go out to turn the tide. Only in the competition can I become famous and become a superstar." Peng Zhan said.
"But, if you don't usually train with your teammates, how will your teammates know that you are special? What can you do to make the head coach completely believe in your strength and arrange for you to play in a life-and-death battle?" Lin Yumeng said.
"My strength has been proven in those videos you posted on Douyin, hasn't it?" Peng Zhan said.
"In the World Cup qualifiers, we are facing professional players who have experienced hundreds of battles. There are many experts, and the intensity of the confrontation is not comparable to that of campus friendly games." Lin Yumeng said.
"Then you first make an appointment for me to meet and talk with the head coach. I think he will agree to my request." Peng Zhan said.
"Okay, then I will agree to meet him and you can chat face to face. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You must seize it. How many people want to join the national team but can't," Lin Yumeng said.
"Okay, I will convince the head coach to agree to my request. If I become a superstar in the future, you will be my agent." Peng Zhan said with a smile.
"We'll wait until you can become a superstar. Your request is too much. I'm not sure whether the head coach will agree to it!"
"I just can't understand why you don't want to become a professional player since the head coach has taken the initiative to find you," Lin Yumeng said.
"Because as a professional player, you have to play football every day and train with your teammates. It's not fun!"
"No matter how good you play football, it's just to entertain the public. There are many more important things to do in life than playing football," Peng Zhan said.
"What else do you have to do now that is more important than playing football?" Lin Yumeng asked.
"I am Chu Qingyao's bodyguard now. I just signed a contract with her yesterday. I will be her bodyguard until she graduates from college. A person must have a beginning and an end, and cannot change when things change." Peng Zhan said.
"Well, you are right, I respect your choice. After all, you were able to attract the attention of the national team head coach because you were Chu Qingyao's bodyguard, and you had the opportunity to play yesterday's game in school. You must know how to be a good person. Be grateful and never forget your roots." Lin Yumeng said.
"Yes. In fact, it is also a big benefit for me not to participate in those irrelevant competitions." Peng Zhan said.
"What are the benefits?" Lin Yumeng asked.
"The advantage is that I can hide my strength. When the crucial match comes, I can catch my opponent off guard and deliver a fatal blow."
"If I often play games, I will be too sharp, which will definitely attract the attention of my opponents. If they guard me in a targeted way, it will not be so easy for me to perform," Peng Zhan said.
"What you said seems to make sense. Then you will talk to the head coach and let you be included in the national team's roster, but you will not play in ordinary games. You will only play when the national team is in crisis. Let’s see if he can agree.” Lin Yumeng said.
"Okay, when I become famous in the national team and some stupid and wealthy club offers me a high price to play football, it won't be too late for me to become a professional player," Peng Zhan said.
At this time, Shangguan Piaoxue, who had been listening to the conversation between Peng Zhan and Lin Yumeng, suddenly said: "Peng Zhan, when I heard you said you wanted to hide your strength, I suddenly had a bold idea."
"What's a bold idea? I'd like to hear the details. Sister Piaoxue, please tell me." Peng Zhan said.
"As far as I know, in any major competition, there will be many people around the world betting on football, and if you usually hide your strength, the bookmakers will definitely not be optimistic about the Dragon Country team. They will give higher odds for the Dragon Country team to win. Wait until If you play in a key game, we will place a heavy bet on the Dragon Country team to win. If you let the Dragon Country team win, we will win money and kill two birds with one stone." Shangguan Piaoxue said.
