, The fastest update of the latest chapters of Fox in the restricted zone!
"...The recent high-profile Hu Lai staying abroad finally settled after some twists and turns. Unexpectedly, the previously rumored King of Madrid and Catalonia are not Hu Lai's final destination... According to the latest news, The Premier League team Leeds City Club officially announced that they have reached an agreement with the Anton Flash Star Club to officially introduce Anton Flash Star’s main striker Hu Lai...Neither party has announced the specific transfer fee, but according to media estimates, the final transfer fee should be It is about 12 million pounds, close to 14 million euros..."
"...The Flash Star Club agreed to pay the transfer fee in two installments for Leeds City, but at the same time added a second transfer fee sharing clause. It is reported that if Leeds City wants to sell Hulai in the future, then according to the contract, Flash Star will be able to split the transfer fee. Twenty percent of the transfer fee..."
When Xie Lan saw this news on TV, her son had already left home a day ago and returned to Jincheng.
She knew that her son returned to the club for the purpose of the transfer. During that time, he had been running between Jincheng and Dongchuan.
She herself knew the final result earlier than the news-because the day before her son left home with large and small bags of luggage, she was already preparing to take a flight from Jincheng.
"I heard that taking a plane from Jincheng to Leeds, the Canadian transit will be almost 20 hours..." Xie Lan sighed to the TV news. "It won't be easy to come back later."
Hu Lixin comforted her next to her: "Isn't it the same as before? He was in Jincheng, 35 minutes on the high-speed train, and didn't see him come back normally? Didn't he come home after a season?"
"Why is it the same?" Xie Lan glared at him and asked, "He used to be in Jincheng, where he could be reached within 35 minutes by high-speed train. I always felt that when I wanted to see him, I could go there with a ticket. Look at him and will go home again at night. After he goes to Leeds, how can I go and see him?"
Hu Lixin mumbled: "Then I will walk to see him before I see you..."
"What are you talking about?" Xie Lan asked back.
"Nothing, nothing..." Hu Lixin waved his hand quickly.
Xie Lan did not continue to question Hu Lixin, but sighed again: "Moreover, he went there alone. He was not familiar with the place of life. I don't know if he is used to eating there... It's not that the British food is terrible. Is it still cold in Leeds? Isn’t it accustomed to being with those new teammates... Besides, we have an eight-hour time difference with that side, right? If the game is played at night over there, then it’s not our side. Is it in the middle of the night?"
Hu Lixin listened to his wife's worries and did not speak.
Now he doesn't know how to comfort his wife.
Because those worries are all justified.
Especially the last point.
Although most of the Premier League matches are in the afternoon, it is still friendly to Chinese TV audiences, at least better than La Liga.
However, in order to cater to the needs of television broadcasts, the current Premier League has long changed the tradition of only putting all games on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Some games will be arranged in the evening local time. It was the local prime time in the UK, and it was unfriendly to the Chinese fans, because it would be the early hours of the second day in Beijing time.
For example, time periods such as 1:30 and 3:30.
Looks particularly uncomfortable-stay up all night, can't stand it. Set the alarm clock and get up again in the middle of the night to watch the ball. I can’t get up...
In the past, the couple only needed to watch their son's game through live TV broadcast during prime time in the afternoon or evening. This is also one of the important reasons why Xie Lan does not feel how far away his son is from her in terms of psychological distance.
After all, you can see your son at the best time every week.
But with Hulai's transfer to Leeds, the time and space distance will double the psychological distance.
But is there any way to solve this problem?
No solution.
I can only slowly adapt myself to the days that are thousands of miles apart and even the time is not right.
When the news of Hulai’s successful transfer to the Premier League team Leeds was officially confirmed, although Chinese fans on the Internet regretted that Hulai did not become the Madrid King or Catalonia, most of them were still wishing Hulai. , I am happy for him to take the step of studying abroad. And because he is not going to a giant team, he is also more likely to get a chance to play. Fans can’t wait to start looking forward to Hulay’s performance in the Premier League...
Some fans turned up the photo of Tony Clark, the head coach of Leeds City Club, and found that he was exactly the same as one of the two foreign fans interviewed by CCTV before the Olympic team played in Argentina. Needless to say, that is the head coach of Leeds City. It turns out that he actually went to the Olympic venue to watch the Olympic team in order to observe Hu Lai. This made netizens exclaimed, "Unexpectedly, the fate of both parties was buried at that time."
The celebration on the Internet continued. At the same time, in an elevator apartment in Dongchuan Town next to Jincheng, a middle-aged couple was saddened by it.

"...Since Qin Lin ended his overseas career in Germany in 2011 and returned to the Super League, there has never been a male football player in Chinese football who can go abroad and go to Europe to prove himself... And now Hulay’s move to Leeds is seen by everyone. A great breakthrough for Chinese football... It is reported that the reason why Hu Lai was able to obtain the Premier League labor license was due to his outstanding performance during the Olympic Games, especially the hat trick against the Argentine Olympic team... The Leeds City Club Athletic Director Nevin Bauer believes that Hulai has extremely high talent, and the English Football Association has passed the special genius clause of the Leeds City Club for Hulai’s application..."
"Special genius..." Qin Qi put down his phone, recalling the news he had just seen online.
Then he turned to look at his father: "Dad, do you say that Hu Lai's achievements will surpass you?"
"What nonsense..." Wang Yuan groaned, wondering if her son has recently entered puberty, so rebellious, it is like crazy testing on the verge of death every day.
But to Wang Yuan's a little surprise, her husband did not show his son the authority of the father, but nodded: "Sure? If the young people are not as good as me now, what a shit... "
Wang Yuan coughed and reminded her husband not to speak bad language in front of the children.
Qin Lin also realized this, and he used a cough to cover up his embarrassment.
Qin Qi didn't care about his parents' previous signal, he turned his head and looked in the direction of the single-family villa outside the window.
The season is over long ago, and the tenants there have temporarily left, returning home, and vacationing.
They will come back until the start of the new season training in January next year, so there will be lively again... right?
Qin Qi was not sure, because he thought that neither Hu Lai nor Chen Xingyi would return here.
There are only four people left in such a big house. Will they continue to live here?
The teenager realized that it was definitely not just someone leaving, but life was also profoundly changed.
"Dad, will I...can't play with them anymore?" Qin Qi asked without looking back.
Behind him, his father didn't answer him, maybe even he didn't know the answer to this question.
"If everyone can still be like this season..." Qin Qi sighed.
His mother comforted him: "Where is there a banquet that lasts in the world?"
Qin Qi did not accept his mother's comfort, he was still looking in that direction in a daze.

Luo Kai sits in the coach's office of the Dongchuan Middle School football team. On his side wall are two jerseys, one is the jersey of the Chinese Olympic team winning the U23 Asian Cup, and the other is the Chinese Olympic team participating in the Olympics. Jersey.
Both jerseys have his signature on them.
Of course there is also Hu Lai's signature.
"It seems that you already know the latest news..." Li Ziqiang said to Luo Kai, who was covered in low air pressure. "I thought you wouldn't come today."
Three days ago, Luo Kai made an appointment with him to see him, but after such a thing happened today, based on Li Ziqiang's understanding of the relationship between Luo Kai and Hu Lai, he thought that Luo Kai would not come, because I'm afraid he is not in the mood to go out.
He didn't even think he saw this young man in his office.
"I promised the coach will come to see you." Luo Kai forced a smile, but it was uglier than crying.
"It's not practical." Li Ziqiang waved his hand.
Luo Kai did not speak, and there was a moment of silence in the office.
This is completely different from the situation where Hu Lai was present. If Hu Lai was here, Li Ziqiang would like to seal his mouth with tape.
But now facing the silent Luo Kai, Li Ziqiang also felt a little uncomfortable.
These two people can become rivals... it doesn't seem surprising at all.
But leaving Luo Kai to be so depressed seems to be no way...
Thinking of this, Li Ziqiang was still the first to break the silence: "Do you now feel that'when you are born, how bright is born?"
Luo Kai raised his head to look at the coach, his mouth opened slightly, but he did not answer.
But his silence has given the answer.
Li Ziqiang shook his head: "Actually, I think it's fortunate that you met Hu Lai. Without him, you are just an ordinary professional player, and you might not even take the career path... Did you have any pursuits in football in the first place? "
"Yes, I..." Luo Kai defended himself.
Li Ziqiang waved his hand and interrupted him: "Why didn't you go to Jiaxiang in high school? Or simply go to the echelon of a professional team? Hu Lai's initial virtues, you know, except for a little talent, nothing works. But I give He has completed all the training content he arranged. I can see that he cherishes the opportunity to play football. Your starting point is countless times higher than him, and your conditions are much better than him, but that At that time, you were far less pure in football than him."
Luo Kai was stunned by the coach's ruthless words.
"So if you didn't meet Hu Lai. You might also choose to take the career path, but your achievements will be far worse than you are now. Football may be just a simple money-making job for you... You have Maybe it hasn't been the main player in the team yet." Li Ziqiang continued unceremoniously.
"But now you are competing with Hu Lai, and at the same time you are competing with yourself. This is what you have achieved today. So I think it is a good thing for you to play abroad if you really want to beat him. , Then keep working hard and make yourself better. It’s okay for you to treat Hu Lai as your opponent, but don’t treat him as your demon."
Just then, the school bell rang outside.
Li Ziqiang asked Luo Kai in a trance: "Would you like to practice with my players?"
Luo Kai quickly got up: "Okay!"
"Go change your shoes, there should be your code in the equipment room."
Luo Kai turned and went out.
Li Ziqiang stared at the two jerseys on the wall in a daze.
In fact, he has only recently realized this statement of inner demon.
That kid...
Become the demon of many people.

Lin Zhiyuan took out his mobile phone and sent a WeChat message to his agent Qiu Xinrong: "Uncle Qiu, the new contract must include a clause for staying abroad-that is, if there are European clubs interested in me in the future, the South China Tigers can't stop it!"
"Your kid is not lightly stimulated by Hu Lai...Do you know how difficult it is to negotiate?"
"I don't care! Uncle Qiu, you are so awesome, you can definitely talk about it. I will go to Europe 100% in the future!"
"All right, I will do my best..."
"Don't do your best, Uncle Qiu. You can definitely do it! Come on! Goddamn!"
"roll roll roll!"

After becoming the agent of Champion Legend Brokerage Company, Yong Jun has left his family in the capital and went to Hu Lai.
For this reason, Zhang Qinghuan’s mother, Ren Changmei, specially invited Yong Jun’s wife Zeng Qian to be a guest at home. On the one hand, she communicated with each other daily, and on the other hand, she was afraid that Zeng Qian would feel alone.
At the dinner table, Zeng Qian suddenly asked this question: "Qinghuan, do you have any plans to go abroad?"
Zhang Qinghuan nodded first, and then shook his head: "Yes, yes, but not now. It is also a future thing to leave. Now Shining Xing has just lost Hu Lai and Chen Xingyi, I want to leave again and it will be completely finished... …"
Zeng Qian smiled and said, "As long as you have this idea, let your Uncle Yong pay attention to it for you."
"Well, Uncle Yong told me."
"At that time, let your mother go out with you! When you leave, your mother will be in the capital alone..."
Zhang Qinghuan looked at his mother when she heard Aunt Zeng said this. Aunt Zeng is right. If there is anything that makes him hesitate to play abroad, it is his mother.
Ren Changmei waved his hand: "I won't go to a foreign country with him. I have a good life in China. Why do I go to a place where the language doesn't understand? Is it locked at home all the time? That can't be mad? Besides, he goes to Jincheng Playing football, don't I have a good time in the capital alone?"
Zeng Qian made a joke to her girlfriend: "What if Qinghuan, this kid goes out and finds several foreign wives for you?"
"Aunt Zeng, I'm not like that..." Zhang Qinghuan waved his hand quickly.
Ren Changmei pouted her lips: "Then count him as winning glory for the country!"
"mom!"
The women all laughed.

"Stars, are you okay?"
"Huh?" Chen Xingyi, who was playing games on his mobile phone, looked up at his father with a confused expression. "What can I do?"
"Hu Lai can go to Europe, don't be beaten..."
Chen Xingyi rolled his eyes to his father: "Dad, your son is not the prudent Luo Kai."
"Oh, I thought you couldn't wait to go to Europe..."
"Of course I want to go to Europe, but not now. Dillon is also a good coach. I think I can learn a lot under him. Then I will go to Europe, and I will have to adapt relatively well."
Seeing that his son has such a clear plan for his future, Chen Hantang nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, I can rest assured with you."
"What do you think of your son, Dad..." Chen Xingyi was helpless. "I'm not a little boy who doesn't understand anything!"
"Hehe, that's good, that's good..." Chen Hantang laughed at the sight and quickly got up and left.
Chen Xingyi looked down at his mobile phone again. The game showed a "failure" screen. His teammates were scolding him on the channel: "Hang up the dog, report it!"
"Damn!" Chen Xingyi turned to find his father, the man had already slipped out of his room.

"... It is reported that as soon as the winter transfer window opens, Hu Lai will set off for the UK to report to the Leeds City Club and train with his new teammates. We sincerely wish him an early integration into the team, familiarity with the new environment and new life..."
Zhou Zijing swiped down the phone screen and saw a photo of Hu Lai wearing a Leeds City jersey-this photo was taken by the domestic media using a computer P. In fact, Hu Lai has not really worn this jersey yet. But everyone obviously couldn't wait, so they changed such a picture with a retouching software.
P's life is vivid, as if Hu Lai really has played on behalf of Leeds City.
Zhou Zijing looked down, and Hu Lai in the photo seemed to be looking at him too, and the smile on his face seemed to mock him no matter how-I went to the Premier League, you have the ability to challenge me in the Premier League!
"Damn!" Zhou Zijing threw the phone on the bed irritably, with the screen facing down, so that he would not see Hu Lai triumphantly.
Then he lay down on the bed, pressing the mattress springs to groan.
He followed with a sigh.
From high school to professional football, he pursued it all the way, and finally pursued it further and further...
Before everyone was in the country anyhow, all in the Super League, he can also play against Hu Lai to achieve the goal of defeating him.
It's better now, Hu Lai ran to Europe, how could he chase after him?
Thousands of miles away!
Europe……
Is Europe so easy to go to? !
The more and more angry Zhou Zijing roared on the bed, he slammed his hands down and made a muffled noise on the mattress.

"Melly, it's great that Hu didn't come to the Madrid King!" Ramon Cantero said to Melly on his mobile phone.
"Yeah, that's great," Melly replied.
"To be honest, when the news that the Madrid Kings were interested in him, I was nervous, for fear that the Madrid Kings really signed the kid...Fortunately, fortunately, I didn't let the kid be your teammate." Cantero was very happy, and he could see his joy only in the text.
Melly: "Hmm, it's not a good teammate."
Not teammates, so that we will have the opportunity to be opponents in the future, Hu Lai.
The only regret is that Hu Lai has not been able to join Catalonia. In that case, the two people may not be able to meet in La Liga.
And now, the ghost knows how long he will stay in that Premier League relegation team...
I hope I don't just sink into it.
Before I beat you, don't you disappear!

Although the team has not yet assembled and the players are still on vacation, the club’s managers and coaches have long been involved in preparing for the new season.
Zhao Kangming took his list of signings for the new season to Dong Wen.
After Hu Lai and Chen Xingyi are gone, Shining Star must strengthen the offensive lineup, for which he made a list. Domestic players also have foreign aid on this list, hoping to make up for the loss of Hu Lai and Chen Xingyi's departure.
Pushing the door open, he saw Dong Wen sitting in the boss chair, looking at the mobile phone in his hand intently.
Noisy sounds came from the phone speakers.
"What are you doing, Old Dong?" Zhao Kangming asked curiously.
"Didn't Hu Lai go to Leeds today? I watched the live broadcast to see him off on my mobile phone."
"It's all live broadcast? It's not enough? Such a high standard?" Zhao Kangming was surprised.
Hu Lai must be on various news when he goes abroad to play football, but the news belongs to the news. If it is a live broadcast, the treatment is completely different.
It was only when Zhao Kangming got in to find out that it was a live webcast...
But he was still taken aback by the number of fans and reporters in the picture: "So many people?"
"That's not it, there are so many people!" Dong Wen said, and then sighed: "Actually, I should send him off, to show the support and attention given to him by Flash Star Club..."
"Hu Lai specifically said hello to us, not let us go to send it." Zhao Kangming said.
"Hey, I didn't expect that he would be afraid to say goodbye... What are you doing?" Dong Wen saw Zhao Kangming take out his mobile phone.
"Say goodbye to him. People can't go to the scene, the blessings must be delivered." said Zhao Kangming, who was typing.
Dong Wen quickly said to Zhao Kangming: "I cut it out here and it won't be a live broadcast... You can also bring me a message, Old Zhao. Just say I wish him a safe journey, and if you are unhappy outside, please come back at any time Xing will always be his home, the door is open for him..."
"There are so many words to say you type by yourself!"
Dong Wen looked at the live broadcast on his mobile phone and hesitated.
At the same time, an excited voice came from the phone: "Okay! Now we can see that Hu Lai's car has been parked outside the international departure entrance on the departure floor..."
※※※
"Wow!" As soon as Hu Lai, Song Jiajia and Yong Jun got off the bus, they were stunned by the flashlights of the reporters waiting outside the terminal. "So exaggerated?"
In front of him were dozens of reporters holding long guns and short cannons, carrying cameras, and waiting for him outside the security gate entering the terminal building.
In addition, there are more fans holding banners, posters and various lights and slogans. Seeing him get off the car is a burst of cheers and screams.
A large number of police officers were responsible for maintaining order at the scene and imposed temporary traffic control on the departure floor of the T1 terminal of Dongsheng International Airport.
"It's not an exaggeration at all, Hu Lai. You are now the'Hope of the Village'!" Yong Jun laughed beside him.
"Ahhh, I suddenly felt so stressed...Should I put up a POSE and say,'I won't come back if I don't mix well"?" Hu Lai turned to look at the camera lens next to him and asked "Isn’t this a placement advertisement? I really didn’t sign this clothing brand..."
The photographer who is loyal to his work did not respond to Hu Lai's words. After all, he is just a photographer with no emotions. His job is to faithfully record Hu Lai's journey from Jincheng to Leeds.
After joking, Hu Lai took out his phone from his pocket, and the small red dot on the WeChat icon indicated that there were dozens of unread messages.
First, someone in the sticky friends group sent a message @他.
Wang Guangwei: "I'm sorry I can't go to the airport to see you off, Hu Lai, I have to cheer over there!"
Xia Xiaoyu: "Come on, Brother Hu! Win glory for the country!"
Zhang Qinghuan: "Good luck, Hu Lai."
Chen Xingyi: "I don't know what to say, anyway, come on!"
Morikawa Junpei: "Hu Sang, I will definitely go to Europe, please wait for me!"
In addition to the messages in the friends group, there are messages sent by other people, and the content is similar. They are all cheering for him and wishing him good luck.
There are his teammates in the flashing stars, as well as in the national team and the Olympic team.
There is the coach of the club coach Zhao, and the coach of the national team Shi Wuyin and others.
Even... his teammates and classmates in Dongchuan Middle School.
In the messages of these people, he saw a small red dot on Li Qingqing's head and clicked in:
"Welcome to Europe, Hulay."
Seeing this sentence, he smiled slightly.
The crowd at the scene chanted: "Come on, Hu Lai!"
"Hu Lai has a safe journey!"
"Hu Lai wish you luck!"
...
Hu Lai raised his hand in cheers and waved to them: "Thank you, thank you everyone!"
Under the nervous gaze of the police, Hu Lai did not stay at the scene, but quickly turned around and walked into the terminal with Song Jiajia and Yong Jun until he disappeared from everyone's sight.
Chen Jianyu retracted his gaze and looked down at the scene just taken by his phone.
In the foreground are the reporters and fans on the inner and outer floors, holding cameras, banners and posters to see Hu Lai off. The middle shot is the back view of three people walking in with their suitcases and bags on their backs. Hu Lai is in the middle. The bustling crowd at the entrance gate of the terminal is a distant view.
In Chen Jianyu's eyes, the young man facing the bluestone wall alone in the abandoned wasteland overlaps with Hu Lai's background.
There is a shallow white line on the stone wall, slantingly outlines a goal, that is the gate to Xintiandi.
So the boy went to the world from here.
Chen Jianyu uploaded this photo to his social network authentication account and added a sentence to it:
From Qingping's slight end, it transforms into madness to become Taiyu.

Many things that I thought of before,
But I don’t know how to express it,
Only the wind sang in the ear.
The packing is ready,
The road is also shown in front of us,
It's hard to meet again today.
The dream is on the road,
Vaguely shiny, fascinating,
May you find it eventually.
But there are also scorching heat and winter in the distance,
Windy and rainy night, muddy road,
I hope you will be fine.
May Wandering bring you enough wisdom,
Firm courage,
It won't wear away your dreams.
May you be more smooth and less tortuous along the way,
More joy, less sorrow.
If the sweetness of dreams becomes,
The suffering in reality,
Then you have to bear it bravely...
