Chapter 63 Ambition is not small
A few days after Zhou Yi decided to stay in Dortmund, he received a call from He Ying. On the phone, He Ying apologized to Zhou Yi, and told him that he finally chose to stay in Barcelona, and worked hard in the first team to compete with the long-standing players for the opportunity to play.
He came to ask Zhou Yi for forgiveness. After all, Zhou Yi gave him an idea at the beginning, but he didn't listen.
Hearing his reason, Zhou Yi smiled: "What, I'm just an idea, but you are the one who makes the idea in the end, so you don't have to care about my thoughts, He Ying. Just do what you think. If you want to stay in the first team, stay with peace of mind. And I think your agent is right. When facing difficulties, it's not okay to just escape. You must face difficulties and don't be afraid, just do it! You are not much worse than them."
"Uh, Zhou Yi, do you really think so?" He Ying was not sure, because Zhou Yi had firmly supported him leaving Barcelona before.
"Of course, although I suggest you leave Barcelona, it doesn't mean you have no chance at all in Barcelona. As long as you work hard and a little luck, nothing is impossible. In fact, the most important thing is whether you can seize the opportunity. As long as you can seize the opportunity, you can succeed." Zhou Yi told He Ying in detail.
After hearing Zhou Yi's words, He Ying's heart finally put down.
In fact, after making a choice, he was always uneasy and felt that he had no face to face Zhou Yi. So he finally called Zhou Yi, hoping to explain the situation to him clearly.
Zhou Yi also joked with He Ying, saying that if he met in the Champions League, he would agree in advance that whoever wins and treats him.
"Then I'll treat you to a Barcelona dinner!" He Ying felt much more relaxed when he heard the sound.
"Hey, whoever loses or wins is not necessarily the case!" Zhou Yi was dissatisfied. "Don't think Dortmund will definitely lose to Barcelona!"

The next day, in Chinese media, news came that He Ying was sure to stay in the first team in Barcelona, and the official Barcelona club was also very satisfied with He Ying's decision.
In an interview, head coach Bilanova said that he paid attention to He Ying's performance at the London Olympics, praising He Ying as a calm and comprehensive striker in front of the goal. He is also very optimistic about He Ying's performance in Barcelona's first team.
Faced with this news, Chinese media and fans were ecstatic because they hoped that more and more Chinese players could gain a foothold in European strong teams. Zhou Yi, Sun Pan and Yang Muge all stood firm. Although Guo Nu had gained a foothold, Siena really had nothing to do with European strong teams.
Only one He Ying is left.
Originally, when I went to Lamacia, I received much attention and was highly anticipated. Unexpectedly, when Lamacia did not make a debut, many people were disappointed at this time. Fortunately, Zhou Yi emerged, otherwise people would really doubt whether the Chinese are suitable for playing football. He Ying was also a leader among her peers in China. The national youth team and the main player of the national youth team are considered the star of hope for Chinese football. Lamacia gathered talented young people from all over the world, including Japan and South Korea, among which Japan and South Korea have outstanding talented players. Now, after He Ying entered as a representative of China, she did not even have a shot. Compared with Japan and South Korea, this really hurts the self-esteem of the fans...
When He Ying was loaned to Valladol, the fans were desperate and felt that He Ying might fall into depravity.
Unexpectedly, He Ying was reborn in Nirvana and performed very well in the Spanish Second Division.
In fact, before the end of last season last season, Chinese media and fans hoped that He Ying could be transferred to the first team by Barcelona through his outstanding performance at Valladolid, which was a dream for everyone.
So now everyone is very happy to see He Ying really stayed in the first team in Barcelona.
This is the first player to play football in a wealthy family in the true sense.
Although Dortmund is also a member of G14, in everyone's mind, Dortmund is not a wealthy family. There is only one wealthy family in German football, that is, Bayern Munich. But even Bayern Munich and Barcelona are not as good as that.
So He Ying is equivalent to filling a gap.
Having just won the Olympic championship, He Ying successfully stayed in Barcelona's first team again. This summer is really a happy thing for Chinese fans.

A few days later, before the start of the Bundesliga, Zhou Yi and Yang Muge had a meal together.
During the meal, they talked about He Ying.
"The media reports that He Ying stayed in Barcelona, and everyone was very happy." Yang Muge said.
Zhou Yi shook his head: "Actually, I don't really think about He Ying... He called me to explain the situation, but I can't say anything, so I can only encourage him."
"Is it really that bad? Actually, it's just a possibility? He may fail or succeed in Barcelona." Yang Muge still hopes that his friends can develop smoothly.
"Of course, anything is possible, but there is also a probability problem. The probability of his success in the Barcelona first team is too low. Think about it, he didn't participate in the pre-season training camp this season, and played in London. If he had played in the first team for two or three seasons, the impact of missing the pre-season training camp was not too great. But he had never trained and played with the stars in the first team at all. He didn't understand them, and they didn't understand him either. Then he went to the first team. He faced a completely unfamiliar environment and didn't even have an adaptation period, so he had to immediately invest in the most intense competition. It's really hard for me to look forward to him..."
After listening to Zhou Yi's analysis, Yang Muge was also worried about the prospects of Heying.
"This is not the end. He was a long time behind others when he started. While he was training hard, his teammates could not lie down and let him catch up, right? Let's not talk about Messi. He Ying's competitor is not him. Let's talk about the other people, Pedro, Villa, Sanchez... Which of these people has no higher picks than him? I think his direct competitor is Troy, and even this opponent is not simple. He played in Barcelona last season and performed well."
"Actually, I think Teluo's development trajectory can be used as a reference for He Ying... In the first game of the first team, he scored two goals and one assist and became the protagonist. He made a debut in La Liga not long ago, and he scored a goal in his debut, and he almost scored twice. This start is fantastic enough, right? Last season, he finally played fourteen times, three times, and eleven substitutes, and scored three goals. For a newcomer, this is actually very good, but I think if the new season is not unexpected, Teluo will still have many substitutes, and it is unlikely to get a stable chance of playing. Because Barcelona's attacking lineup is relatively fixed, this kind of giant lineup will not be easily changed, and frequent rotations are absolutely impossible. Even if He Ying can achieve the performance of a special starting point, he is just the second special team in Barcelona... Is it meaningful to play a substitute in Barcelona?"
Speaking of this, Zhou Yi spread his hands out.
"Uh... Zhou Yi..." After hearing Zhou Yi's long speech, Yang Muge's expression was already a little dull.
"What's wrong?"
"Why are you so clear about Barcelona's substitute?"
"I usually like to study and pay attention to other teams when I'm fine. Do you know I was a fan before? As a fan, I naturally wouldn't let go of any football consultation, ha!" Zhou Yi said.
He didn't make excuses, not to cover up his virtual system, because what he said this time was the truth. This is the habit he developed as a fan.
In the past, in school, everyone, as fans, would pay attention to the situation of each round of major European leagues and the performance of those players. If any newcomers emerge, they would definitely discuss it with their partners. In addition, the online society can also find enough like-minded fans on the Internet to discuss it in the forum.
So this is a habit for Zhou Yi.
After he became a professional player, he also brought this habit to his career because he found that it was of great benefit to him.
As the core of a team's midfielder, if he wants to lead the team to win, he must know himself and his opponent, and understand his opponent, so that he can have a basic understanding when encountering him and know what to do.
"I understand why you are so powerful..." Yang Muge sighed. "It's really awesome."
Zhou Yi made a fuss, changed the subject, and continued to talk about He Ying.
"With He Ying's strength, he should play the main force, not a substitute for a wealthy family. Everyone says that a wealthy family is good, but a wealthy family is not good at everything. He is indeed a Barcelona fan. This kind of fan mentality will restrict his development. When he needs to make a choice, he will be affected too much by his feelings and make incorrect choices..."
"What about you, Zhou Yi."
"Um?"
"Isn't it also emotional to choose to stay in Dortmund? With your ability and fame, it is normal and wiser to go to Barcelona and Real Madrid with your ability and fame?" Yang Muge asked.
"I'm not emotional, Lao Yang." Zhou Yi shook his head. "I will definitely leave here in the future, but not now."
"Why not now? Do you have any goals here? You have won the league championship and the German Cup championship, and what else have you not won?"
"Champions League." Zhou Yi said.
Yang Muge opened his mouth wide and made no sound.
"If I go to a team like Barcelona and Real Madrid now and win the Champions League, people will take it for granted, right? No one will think that it is because of me, right? After all, teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid are strong, and they have the ability to win the championship, and it is the same if I have or not. But if I win the Champions League in Dortmund, I think no one can ignore my importance. So I will only consider leaving if I win the Champions League here.”
Yang Muge's mouth was not closed, his eyes were straight, and Zhou Yi did not respond after he finished speaking.
So Zhou Yi shook his hand in front of him: "Hey, come back to his senses, Lao Yang."
Yang Muge blinked his eyes and was considered to have come back to his senses.
"Why did you react?" Zhou Yi asked.
"No...I didn't expect your ambition to be so great, Zhou Yi..."
Zhou Yi smiled: "This scares you, Lao Yang? Then I want to say that I want to lead the Chinese team to the World Cup championship. What will you react?"
"Stop kidding, Zhou Yi..." Yang Muge waved his hands repeatedly.
"I'm not kidding, Lao Yang." Unexpectedly, Zhou Yi's expression was very serious. "I am twenty-one years old this year. Even if I retire at the age of 36, I still have fifteen years of my career. In the time when I can still maintain my form, I should be able to play three World Cups. 2014 Brazil, 2018 Russia, 2022 Qatar, when I arrived at the Qatar World Cup, I was already thirty-one. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be the last World Cup in my good form. I have three opportunities and I will do my best."
This time, Yang Muge was not scared by Zhou Yi's ambition and the grand prospects he portrayed. At first, he was indeed scared, but as Zhou Yi told him, his expression gradually recovered.
"Hey, you didn't seem to be scared." After Zhou Yi said that, he saw Yang Muge's calm expression, and was a little surprised.
"Well, Zhou Yi, because I will do my best to help you." Yang Muge said.
This answer made Zhou Yi stunned.
"What's wrong?"
"No, I suddenly felt that you were so numb..." Zhou Yi hugged his arms with both hands and made a cold look.
"Damn!" Yang Muge didn't expect Zhou Yi to say that.
Zhou Yi laughed when he saw Yang Muge's reaction.
Only then did Yang Muge realize that Zhou Yi was teasing him, so he also laughed.
Amid the laughter, both of them understood that they were serious about that matter. (To be continued.)
