Vol 2 Chapter 50: Calls from China

According to the league schedule of the German Football Association, the Bundesliga team now has a winter break of nearly two months, and the second half of the league will not start again until February 1 next year. For the players, it is already possible to enjoy the holiday, but Sloemka still cares about the UEFA Champions League draw. Only when this major event is settled, he can safely enjoy the Christmas and New Year holidays.
On December 19th, UEFA conducted a draw for the UEFA Champions League this season at Nyon, Switzerland.
The two main rules of the draw are circumvention of the same group of qualifying teams and circumvention of the same league teams. The teams of the top 16 teams are not divided by strength, but the head coaches of each team will have their own tendencies according to their strength.
Slomka does not want the team to meet Manchester United, Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Arsenal, Juventus and Inter Milan prematurely at this stage.
Half of the opponents have to evade, it is difficult to meet his wishes...
But Sloemka was not overwhelmed by the short-lived victory at the league level. He knew that his team could meet teams like Panathinaikos, Villarreal and Lyon. The hope to advance to the quarterfinals will greatly increase.
As a result, Schalke's opponent was drawn to the Portuguese Super League powerhouse Porto. Slomka is basically satisfied with this result. He can enjoy the Christmas holiday with a more relaxed mood.
At the same time, Zhou Tiancheng and Chu Yunling have tasted the beach on the island of Corsica, France, enjoying the rich wines here.
Zhou Tiancheng has always had a plan in mind: take advantage of each season's vacation to enjoy all the famous scenic spots in Europe.
Zhou Tiancheng feels that there is time to go in Germany, so he chose the neighboring country, the romantic capital of France, as the first stop of his "tour around Europe".
Zhou Tiancheng originally planned to go to Paris, but this hotel is not easy to book. Zhou Tiancheng and Chu Yunling discussed the plan to go to Corsica. It’s not as well-known as Paris, but it’s actually not bad at all.
Of course Corsica is by no means unknown and is also one of the most popular tourist destinations, especially for many history or military enthusiasts-a world-renowned figure in French history was born here: Napoleon Bonaparte.
When I came here, I naturally had to go to Napoleon's former residence. Zhou Tiancheng still respected this little man who had influenced the history of the world. In his view, football can be called a war in a peaceful age, and the two actually have something in common; calling for genius requires a natural leader, or even a hero!
Looking at the former residence of Napoleon, Zhou Tiancheng realized from the explanation of the instructor what he could use for himself in the green field.
...
On Christmas Eve, the lights are bright, and even in the small town of Ajaccio on Corsica, shops and taverns have become lively. Chinese people who have been abroad for a long time actually feel especially traditional festivals like the Spring Festival in China. Although the two were not very interested in this kind of Christmas, Zhou Tiancheng still took a whim and took a photo of Chu Yunling with his face and posted it to the group of "waiting for the bubbling of salted fish". Suddenly caused two online single dogs to vomit.
Dapeng spread his wings (Chen Pengfei): Too brutal! It’s nice to have money, so let’s just go to France. It’s like we can only squat in a rental house and slowly torture in various groups.
Tao Sheng is still the same (Ming Tao): First of all, there must be a beautiful woman who is willing to be your girlfriend... Brother, despise you, show love, die fast!
Zhou Tiancheng smiled and went offline.
After Christmas, it is not far from the New Year's Day in 2009, and New Year's Eve is the same in all parts of the world. On the beach of Corsica, the two men acquiesced to the beach for the New Year wishes.
Zhou Tiancheng recalled his past year. Like last year, he felt dreamy. This year's feeling is even stronger.
Last year, it was only him who personally completed the status change of a professional player. This year is different. He is no longer a small role without a name. He has gained popularity in the five major leagues. Things that he once dare not think about, now Zhou Tiancheng feels that It's not difficult, he can do better.
"Acheng, what did you wish for?" Chu Yunling asked curiously.
Zhou Tiancheng turned his eyes and did not answer directly. He asked, "Xiaoling, we two have known each other for three years?"
Chu Yunling nodded and smiled, remembering the time she had just met.
Zhou Tiancheng sighed: "Three years... Hey, Xiaoling, don't you think our relationship is progressing a little bit slow."
"Huh, that's not to blame you for being busy all the time." Chu Yunling replied.
"Uh..." Zhou Tiancheng didn't know what to say. After three seconds, he continued: "Well, I'm wrong, but Xiaoling, don't you think we... are a little slow in the process?"
Chu Yunling froze.
Zhou Tiancheng hit the iron while it was hot, and then said: "It's been three years, as far as our relationship and relationship are concerned, it seems that the deepest step has not yet been taken. Look at this good day today. Let's think about it later in the evening. then……"
"Nasty! Necrosis." Chu Yunling blushed suddenly, Zhou Tiancheng hinted so clearly, how could she not understand.
"A man is not bad, a woman is not in love, let's talk about it, all dating that is not for marriage is just a hooligan. Since I told you that, you should understand me, and I believe you in this life."
Although Chu Yunling was very happy in her heart, she struggled a bit and refused firmly: "No, wait until you propose to me."
"Ah? I knew I should prepare it. But what theory do you have? Why do you have to ask for marriage to get that?"
"My mother said, the man who thought with his lower body before proposing was unreliable."
My mom!
That sweat in Zhou Tiancheng's heart! Dear future mother-in-law, this stick has to kill many male compatriots under the world~EbookFREE.me~ He can't help but feel that Chu Yunling knows his principled man is absolutely great luck!
...
Just after the New Year's Day in China, the two of them have almost played enough. Chu Yunling's vacation is not a few days left. Zhou Tiancheng decided to go back to Germany to take a rest.
The flight that I took just walked out of the airport, Zhou Tiancheng restarted, and just after a while the phone rang.
Zhou Tiancheng picked it up and saw it was actually a number from China, but he was very unfamiliar with this number
After hesitating for a while, Zhou Tiancheng still picked it up, maybe which domestic media would contact him for an interview.
Zhou Tiancheng deliberately did not speak first after being connected, and the voice opposite rang a second later: "Hello, is it Zhou Tiancheng?"
"I am, who are you?" Zhou Tiancheng heard the voice of the middle-aged man opposite, which further confirmed his guess.
"Hello Zhou Tiancheng, this is Gao Hongbo." The other end of the phone answered directly.
