It was the first time that Hulay met the national team coach Marcel Wilson on the side of the training court.
The old German man brought an interpreter to exchange greetings with Hu Lai, and at the same time, he planned to explain the situation to him.
But to his surprise, Hu Lai greeted him in very fluent German as soon as he came up.
He widened his eyes: "You can speak German? No... You are a German who is proficient in German... but there is no record of living in Germany on your data."
Hu Lai used the excuse he had prepared for a long time: "I took the time to teach myself, Mr. Wilson."
After using the Common Language Skills Book, he expected that he would suddenly speak a foreign language and this matter would be known to many people. He didn't intend to hide it and couldn't hide it. If others ask, he will answer and study by himself.
As for why he was able to learn so many languages by himself... it's just that he is talented in language.
Besides, he doesn't show all the languages he knows in one breath, so it won't be too scary when he speaks a language by himself.
Sure enough, even though Wilson was a little suspicious, he felt that Hu Lai's ability to learn by himself was really great, but he did not dwell on the issue of language.
For football players, mastering multiple languages is certainly a bonus, but it is not something that needs to be particularly concerned.
On the contrary, he was very happy: "That's great. I'm also worried that my meaning will not be conveyed to you well."
When he said this, the translator next to him was a little embarrassed, but he didn't say anything.
Wilson did not care about the translation attitude, but continued to say to Hu Lai: "First of all, I want to congratulate you on entering the national team, Hu. Then I have to be honest with you. Next we will face the top twelve. How important this game is to the team, I believe you must know better than me. So I’m sorry, although you have entered the national team, it does not mean that you will definitely get a chance to play. Do you understand what I said? We don’t have time to familiarize you with the team through many warm-up games, so..."
When he said this, he did not go on, but looked at Hu Lai.
Although I had already guessed that it would be such a result, before Hu Lai came to the national team, he did have longing for it, thinking "what if" and "maybe" in his heart.
But now there are no such "what if" and "maybe".
He sighed regretfully in his heart, but still smiled strongly on his face: "I understand, Mr. Wilson. For me, being able to enter the national team is a rare learning opportunity."
Wilson was very satisfied with his attitude. He nodded and smiled again on his face: "Of course it is best if you can understand. But you should not think that the game has nothing to do with you. I hope you always do well. I am ready to be replaced at any time."
"Don't worry, Mr. Wilson. I will come when I call, and when I come, I can fight." Hu Lai once again gave Wilson a satisfactory answer.
"Very well, boy, go to train now."
When Hu Lai ran to the training ground to warm up with his teammates, Zhang Qinghuan came up and asked him secretly, "Why did Wilson look for you?"
"Tell me not to have too many unrealistic fantasies. I came here to learn." Hu Lai extracted the central idea and said to Zhang Qinghuan.
After listening to Zhang Qinghuan, he sighed. Intellectually, he thought the coach was right, but emotionally he stood on Hu Lai's side and felt sorry for Hu Lai.
"Forget it, don't think about it, train with peace of mind. Come on, Brother Saihuan, the top twelve." Hu Lai looked away and swayed his head, as if throwing those unrealistic fantasies out of his mind.

Wilson is really not just talking.
In the first twelve match of the Chinese team on September 5, Hu Lai has been sitting on the bench. Although he followed his teammates out to warm up several times, he was not substituted until the end of the game.
In this game, the Chinese team defeated the UAE 1-0 at home and made a good start to the top twelve matches.
Although the process was not very smooth, but fortunately, I won in the end.
Because of winning the game, neither the media nor the fans are very concerned about Hu Lai’s absence. The focus of discussion is on the victory itself.
Before the top twelve games, when everyone analyzed the competition, they all believed that if the Chinese team wants to get the right to participate in the World Cup, then some games must be won.
Including the home game and the UAE.
After all, the strength of the UAE is not strong, and it is incomparable with South Korea, Saudi Arabia, and Australia. In addition, the Chinese team is at home again. If you can't win such a game, then don't talk about qualifying for the World Cup. No show!
After getting the three points that everyone considered deserved, the Chinese team took a short break and flew to the far Middle East the next day to challenge their second opponent, Saudi Arabia, in the top 12 tournament.
Although Saudi Arabia failed to qualify for the last World Cup, it is a veteran team after all. It has participated in the World Cup many times. For the Chinese team, it is still a giant.
In the plan of the Chinese team, it is considered a victory to draw Saudi Arabia away.
For this purpose, the Chinese team focuses on defense in lineup configuration and tactical selection.
Hu Lai naturally sat on the bench again for ninety minutes, with no performance other than warming up several times.
He and other bench players and teammates witnessed the defeat of the Chinese team at the closest distance and in the best position of the audience.
0:2, the Chinese team was beaten away without fighting back.
Wilson's defensive tactics did not work, Saudi Arabia used two long shots from outside the penalty area to score.
The Chinese team failed to get one point as planned, and ranked third in the group with three points after two rounds of the top 12 matches.
South Korea topped the list with two wins, two wins and six points. Saudi Arabia ranked second in the group with one win and one tie. Australia ranked fourth in two games. Qatar ranked fifth with one point under China. All negative scores are the bottom of the ranking.
This is the situation of this group after two rounds of the top twelve matches.

Xie Lan, who guarded the two games until the last second without seeing his son playing, was very dissatisfied with the head coach Wilson of the Chinese team: "In the end, I was two goals behind. Anyway, I lost. Why didn’t I give it to us? Son’s chance to play? Even if it’s time, let him go up and feel the atmosphere of the game...otherwise the national team won’t be lost?"
Hu Lixin, who was next to him, glanced at his wife. He knew that his wife was picking faults. From a rational point of view, they did not have to give Hu Lai a chance to play.
But he did not refute his wife's angry words.
Because he actually kind of expects his son to represent the Chinese national team in the top twelve matches.
In fact, it stands to reason that Hu Lai did not have played on behalf of the Chinese team. In the East Asian Cup last year, although the participating team was the Olympic team, they were all national teams in name. So Hu Lai has actually played three national teams. Records, and five national teams have scored.
But for most people, they would not think that this is really a national team game and a national team goal. In their view, Hu Lai has not played or scored on behalf of the Chinese national team.
Hu Lixin also has this view. He is still waiting for his son's first national team appearance.

Because of the away game to Saudi Arabia, some "disharmonious" voices finally emerged after the game.
"Hu Lai was allowed to sit on the bench for two consecutive games. Why did he get him in? Do you show it to us? What a fool!"
Such questions appeared on the Chinese network after the game.
But soon someone came out to refute this remark, thinking that Hu Lai, as a newcomer to the national team, shouldn't play without being familiar with the team.
"It's not that you have to play when you enter the national team. There are more than 20 people in a national team, and at most 14 people in a game, are the rest of the people come for nothing? This is a bad idea. Don't make it like'all the world is your mother'. You are trying to trick Hu Lai!"
This argument is still very marketable, and it has been echoed by many people immediately.
This is also because although the away game was lost, it was lost to Saudi Arabia after all. It’s not easy to play Saudi Arabia away. The goal is to try to keep a tie. It’s normal to lose the game in the end. It has little to do with Hu Lai not playing.
All in all, everyone is mentally prepared for losing this game. In addition, despite the loss to Saudi Arabia, the current Chinese team still has three points, ranking third in the group. The results are not bad, so neither As for making the fans so angry that they lose their minds, they just bite it out for whatever reason.
If China loses to the UAE at home in the first game, the "disharmonious" voice after the game may not be so stark.
Hu Lai also explained in an interview with reporters after the game that he communicated with the coach Wilson when he first entered the team. He understands and supports the coach’s approach. What he cares about is not whether he can play. This kind of problem is the team's performance.
The away loss to Saudi Arabia is regrettable, but he is still looking forward to the next national team game day when he will continue to be selected for the national team.
This time, Hu Lai did not open his mouth during the interview, creating a big news, bombarding the national team coach or something... It also made many people breathe a sigh of relief.

"I really ran to be the spectator for two games, and I don't know if we should be happy or regret it..." Chen Mo said with emotion to Zhao Kangming.
I am happy to think that Hu Lai did not consume his energy in the national team game, let alone injured because of the game. When he went to the national team, he was a healthy and healthy person, and when he returned to the club from the national team, he was also a healthy and healthy person.
For the coaches of the club team, this is the greatest good news.
Nothing happens is a good thing.
But Hu Lai failed to represent the national team in the game, failed to show his ability on the real national team stage~EbookFREE.me~ and made everyone who cares about him and support him regret.
Not to mention that the Chinese team lost the last game.
Everyone can't help but wonder, if Hu Lai can play, can he do something?
"I'm not happy nor regret." Zhao Kangming said. "Don't think about the national team, Lao Chen. In the next 20 days, we will have five games, four of which will be in the league. If these four leagues are not grasped, our goal of participating in the AFC next season will be useless. That's it."
Chen Mo said: "I've seen the schedule. The next opponents are not easy to deal with. Lingnan Nanhai is going to fight for relegation. Dashun Golden Arrow is holding back his energy to find us for revenge. There is still an AFC Champions League in between. The quarter-finals...or else we just abandon the AFC Champions League and let the young players and substitutes do it, and the main players stay at home?"
Zhao Kangming shook his head: "You can't do this, the meaning of giving up is too obvious, and it will make players have bad ideas. How to play and how to play in the AFC."
"Are you not afraid to toss the team back and forth?"
"We have just gone through a one-month offseason. If such a week of double matches can be exhausted, we will not participate in the AFC next season." Zhao Kangming laughed.
"But after the AFC Champions League, the next one is the Golden Arrow..."
"Old Chen, you have to trust Hu Lai..."
"Why do I believe him? Wang Xianke has already gotten out of Golden Arrow!"
"Ah..." Zhao Kangming patted his forehead, then defended. "It's okay, I still believe those young people. The Golden Arrows who changed coaches are still those people. Since they can lose to us three times, they can lose the fourth time. And this time is our home court."
