"Zhuo Yang, congratulations. Congratulations to the Chinese team." As soon as we met, Mourinho first expressed his congratulations.

Zhuo Yang held his stretched hand: "Thank you, Jose."

He let Zhuo Yang go into the sofa and sit down. Mourinho picked up the coffee pot on the coffee table, then straightened the cups prepared in advance, rushed into the coffee, and pushed them in front of Zhuo Yang with his fingers.

Zhuo Yang nodded: "Thank you." But he did not go to drink immediately, but sat back and leaned on the back of the sofa.

Mourinho's character and attitude towards the matter can be seen from his office in Valdebebas Sports City as the meeting place for Zhuo Yang.

Sports City is a place that comes almost every day. The office can call in and sit in at any time. If it is another head coach, it is not enough to be so serious. It also calls to make an appointment in advance, and it feels like everything is going on.

Uncle Zha’s office in Madiburg was his dormitory. Zhuo Yang and the others pushed the door open and didn’t knock at all.

An Pang's office is not inhabited, but Zhuo Yang is also visiting each other, but he often has cigar smoke that makes him unable to open his eyes.

Guardiola's office is more regular, but Zhuo Yang has gone there too much. One is that he is really familiar with it, and the other is that he has this privilege.

Only Mourinho's office, which is the first time Zhuo Yang has come to Real Madrid in more than a year. And as far as he knows, there are very few Real Madrid players who have been here. Unless Mourinho invites him, no one will come over and get in for a trap.

porcelain.

The office is very open, with only the working area exceeding 80 square meters. After the office is electronic, the bookshelf and information cabinet are basically no longer used, and are replaced by LCD display wall hangings with several large screens.

The desk is very large, and it looks more like a dining table. It can be easily arranged side by side with four chairs on one side. There are two laptops on it, one with a light and the other with a lid, other glasses, stopwatches, whistles, and some text pens

What's the matter, the desktop looks messy.

"Is it very familiar? It should be called...the worker at Rockefeller Center, yes, it's this name." Seeing Zhuo Yang staring at the photo on the wall, Mourinho explained.

The photo is the only decoration on the office wall, which is the very famous photo of a row of workers sitting on a high beam having lunch and smoking and resting on a newspaper. Photographer Charles C. Ebbets

In 1932, some people also said that this photo was repaired, but the actual situation was not as dangerous and exaggerated as the picture.

"I'm very brave. Anyway, I don't dare to eat hamburgers at such a high place, and I don't dare to eat anything." After saying that, Zhuo Yang withdrew his gaze and stopped looking at the photos. No matter how artistic life is, this photo is at least

There is a very serious suspicion of posing.

"Haha, life is not easy, and many people have to survive with difficulty." Mourinho smiled: "Zhuo Yang, you should find it difficult to understand the living conditions of the people at the bottom. They are very far away from you."

Zhuo Yang shrugged, not wanting to explain anything to Mourinho.

Too many people only see Zhuo Yang's football and piano. When he sees his most glamorous now, he will automatically think about Zhuo Yang's birth. Then he will show off his life insights seriously. If Zhuo Yang explains it every time

It's not enough to be tired.

Fortunately, Mourinho didn't have such a thing, and he didn't have the bad virtues of those who have lived on their seniority.

Zhuo Yang's father Zhuo Tongtong once said: In fact, no one is qualified to tell others about the principles of life, because they have only lived for a lifetime, so how can they talk about experience? It takes more than a dozen times to make scrambled eggs with tomatoes and then dare to forcefully talk about experience 2.

How can you guide others casually in a mere life?

"Every international competition day, you have to fly back and forth for more than ten hours, isn't it very hard?"

"Fortunately, I've been used to it for so many years." If you want to greet me, I will accompany you.

"China is too far away, and China is too big," Mourinho said. "I don't know how much the area is, but I feel that Spain and Portugal should be as big as that, or even bigger."

Zhuo Yang was also used to this: "It's bigger, about the same size as two Europes. Well... it doesn't include Russia." He made a special statement that in fact, Europe in the minds of Europeans does not include Russia.

Mourinho was slightly shocked, then smiled embarrassedly.

Mourinho is still a person who has been to China. He still has no practical concept of China's "bigness". You can imagine those ordinary European people who have never been to China. Zhuo Yang has met too many Western Yelangs and Muri in recent years.

Neo is reliable.

In fact, it is not all caused by ignorance. People who have lived in small countries for generations can find it difficult to specifically feel the vastness of the vastness. The same is true for the Chinese, and they subconsciously do not realize how small European countries are.

As two of Spain's most well-known cities, Madrid and Barcelona, ​​Chinese people who have just come here will subconsciously think: Wow, it must be far away.

Because it is very far from Beijing to Shanghai and Guangzhou.

In fact, driving from Madrid to Barcelona in one morning is much more convenient than traveling within most Chinese provinces.

For most Europeans, China's "big" is just a noun, not a concept.

Every time Zhuo Yang said to others that "China has almost two European big ones", he would involuntarily associate: If China could also have twice the number of professional football clubs in Europe, it would really be like table tennis.

, beat the whole world as you wish.

But the reality is that except for those small countries, China cannot compare with any European country in terms of number of professional clubs. This may be the real reason why Chinese football cannot fully develop.

"Frank has done a good job in China. I think he must be very happy now." Mourinho said that the head coach of the Chinese team, his old opponent Frank Rijcard.

"Yes, he is very outstanding and is very respected by the people in China. We Chinese call him a handsome man and an outstanding marshal."

The grudge between Mourinho and Barcelona actually originated from the Rijkaard era. In the 2005-06 season, Mourinho's Chelsea was eliminated by Barcelona in the Champions League round of 16. The two teams were in the group match again in the 2006-07 season next year.

Fight to the death.

Thinking of the two ambitious but failed seasons one after another, Mourinho remembered that the Champions League championships of those two seasons were taken away by Zhuo Yang.

"Zhuo Yang, you are amazing. If I remember correctly, you already have four Champions Leagues, right?"

“Yes, four.”

"No one among the active players should be more than you."

"No, Old Sier, Clarence Sidorf, he has five."

"Siddorf? Did he not retire?"

"No, he went to Brazil, Botafogo player and coach."

"Oh--. Real Madrid's Hento has six, you are only... 27 years old, and you should be able to surpass him."

"There are six of Martini," Zhuo Yang added. However, on this point, Zhuo Yang and Mourinho had no objection. He thought it was only a matter of time before he surpassed Martini and Hento.
