"Your question is too strange, can't I have both?" Chen Mo smiled and shrugged: "Besides, don't you yourself also focus on studying every day and never date a boy? Then do you think studying More attractive than boys?”
"Hey, hey, hey, you're not allowed to answer questions with questions!" Keli put her hands on her hips and wrinkled her little nose. The next moment she laughed again: "But my question is a bit stupid. Which superstar is not accompanied by beautiful women? Women and Football doesn't seem to be in conflict. Let me put it another way, why do you like playing football so much? Is it to make money?"
"Can you please stop asking such pointed questions?"
"Say it quickly!"
"..."
Keli leaned close to her little head, and the pleasant smell of soap poured into her nose. Chen Mo hesitated and turned the sausage in his hand: "Of course I want to make money. Who would hate money? But how to put it, the most important thing is that I like it play soccer."
"Then why do you like playing football? I heard from Leon and Antonella that you were very quiet when you were a child and didn't like strenuous exercise at all."
Keli held her chin like a curious baby, Chen Mo smiled and shrugged: "How should I put it, a very strange opportunity. As Xiaomei said, I was very introverted when I was a child and had few friends, except for him and Antonella, my brother and sister. I basically had no friends outside of two years ago, but I was quite happy at that time. I read comics every day, practiced ball with him, and lived in my own little world. My dream was to become a cartoonist in the future. But then my father and I I moved to Long Country. The school there prohibited students from reading comic books. The teacher confiscated my comic books and even tore them up in public at the parent-teacher meeting and said I was a rat.
Later, many of my classmates’ parents thought I was a bad boy and asked them not to play with me. I was so angry that I skipped class, but I had nothing to do without class, and I didn’t have money to play video games. So I happened to meet some guys playing football, and they invited me because they were short of someone. Gradually, I got to know many friends through football. We all play together every day and have fun together. From then on, I discovered that I fell in love with football. "
"It feels like you prefer the atmosphere of being with friends than football."
Keli was thoughtful, and Chen Mo nodded: "There is a saying in Longguo called [No brothers, no football]. For me, the charm of football itself does not lie in how many goals are scored, but what extends from this sport." Get happiness from it.”
"Such as friendship, such as honor, such as other people's recognition?"
"Hahaha, of course these are indispensable."
"That's right, but your dad didn't take care of you when he saw you absent from class?"
Keli blinked her big bright eyes and sipped the juice. Chen Mo shook his head. His eyes seemed to have thought of something interesting. He smiled and said, "I didn't care much. He even had a quarrel with my class teacher. I remember he went to school that day. I drank some liquor before. In the teacher's office, the head teacher said that I would be a social worm if I didn't study, but he slapped the table and said that only by doing what you really like can you succeed, and only by doing what you like can life be meaningful. , which made the head teacher tremble with anger..."
"Hahaha, your dad has such a personality!"
Keli laughed so hard that she covered her stomach and huddled up on the sofa. Chen Mo grinned and said, "Everyone has his own personality after drinking. After he woke up, he still carried gifts to the teacher's house and apologized... But After that, I joined the school football team, and the head teacher didn’t care about me much.”
"I really envy you for having an open-minded father. By the way, do you think your father is right?"
"Ah? Which sentence?"
Chen Mo was stunned. Keli, who was lying on her side on the sofa, still had a smile on her lips, but her eyes were a little erratic: "Only by doing something you really like can you change your destiny."
"Well, am I not a living example? If my mind were to engage in fields related to mathematics, I would probably be hungry for the rest of my life, but relying on football, I can already support myself now."
"Is that so...I understand!"
Keli suddenly sat up, and Chen Mo was startled: "What do you understand?"
"I decided to become a computer software engineer!"
"..."
Chen Mo was confused, but Keli smiled and said: "You should have heard about my situation. My father is a drug addict. In order to get the savings from my mother, they both fell off the bridge and stayed at a relative's house. Hey, hey, don't use it. Look at me like that, I don’t want to hear you say comforting words, and I don’t need anyone to comfort me. I said, just listen quietly!”
"Uh... ok."
Chen Mo handed over the grilled hot dog, and Keli put her fair and slender calves on the sofa, biting the hot dog and looking at the night sky: "To be honest, my life now is not happy. To be precise, it is very depressing. If it weren't for the government Because of the subsidy and annual scholarship, Uncle Jim kicked me out of the house a long time ago. This feeling of being abandoned at any time and being dependent on others is... in short, the situation is very bad!
I have been forcing myself to study hard in order to get a scholarship, but in fact I have no interest in the subjects taught by my current teacher. It’s painful to learn, and I have to learn. Without a scholarship, I will be kicked out. But even so, I feel that as the textbook knowledge becomes more and more profound, it becomes more and more difficult to get scholarships. You don’t know what I said some time ago How hard it was, worried about not getting the scholarship, and couldn't sleep all night. In the final analysis, I don’t like these subjects myself, and no matter how hard I try, I can’t compare to those who like and are talented. So as long as I am still on this track, I will one day be left behind! "
Chen Mo raised his eyebrows: "So, you want to do what you like?"
"Otherwise? I don't want to be kicked around like a ball by those relatives like before, like a stray dog!"
"Oh, I know this feeling. When my father and I first returned to the Dragon Kingdom, we were short of money, and those relatives stayed away from us."
Chen Mo nodded, "But, who is that computer software engineer?"
"It's just writing code! The game consoles you play, as well as webmail and website software are all written through code. Let me tell you, I secretly bought books to study..."
Speaking of computer software engineer Keli, she became energetic and enthusiastically started to educate Chen Mo about science.
A few smokes floated into the night sky, and the two of them leaned on the sofa, eating barbecue and chatting, completely ignoring the noisy people around them, and the New Year's Eve bell was quietly approaching.
.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
The management of Barcelona gathered at the Grand Hotel Salvador Palace on Via Skorc Street.
This year is the first year that Joan Gaspart was elected as the chairman of Barcelona. Although the team's performance is very poor, everyone from the club's senior management to the youth training camp coaches are here. People in the box exchange cups and cups, and the atmosphere is Very lively.
Smelling the strong smell of tobacco and alcohol in the air, old Coach Zach, who had few good teeth left, chewed on barbecue steak and touched the arm of the middle-aged white man next to him.
"Joseph, I heard that you are going to take the second-tier team to Madrid to participate in the Mercedes-Benz Champions League next month?"
Joseph turned around, nodded and smiled: "Well, many second-line team players will not have games this month. I am going to take them to practice and maybe win bonuses. What's wrong?"
"Has the candidate been decided?"
"Not yet."
"That's it." Zach swallowed the roast meat and rubbed his wrinkled palms with a napkin: "How about bringing Chen Mo, Leon and Pique Xiaofa?"
"What?"
Joseph was stunned for a moment, his features tangled together, and he said in confusion: "This Mercedes-Benz Champions Cup is a competition for the U19 age group. You want me to take four U13 kids?"
Coach Zach smiled and said: "Real Madrid and Bayern also brought a few 16-year-old guys, Bastian Schweinsteiger and Juanfran, oh by the way, Bayern also has a little guy named Lahm. I’ve just turned seventeen.”
"That's over 16 years old. Chen Mo and the others are less than 14 years old. They can't play at this level."
Joseph sternly refused, and Zach smiled and said: "Take it and give it a try. Anyway, you don't have anyone you can use now. Xavi can't go. Iniesta was also mentioned by Ferrer to prepare for the first team. Now he is U19 Those little guys there can't compete with Bayern and Real Madrid, and you don't want to lose to them."
"Can..."
When the pain point was mentioned, Joseph looked a little hesitant. Zach smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm not just letting a few little guys see the world. The main thing is... Now U15, even the league below U16 is completely unable to adapt. They are gone."
