Chu Zhongtian completely ignored the preparation of the restaurant. Xu Xiaodi helped him find a master who was proficient in making Chinese snacks and snacks, as well as various folk artists in China.

Merry helped him find a lawyer in the United States. If he wanted to open a restaurant in the United States, legal matters were indispensable.

After having a few long talks with his father on the phone, Chu Zuosheng also felt that it was meaningless to continue to be a small civil servant. First of all, the family does not lack the little money he earns. He is just a small clerk, he is low-key and does not like to do things like using power for personal gain, so his income is not high, and he is not even as good as his head teacher's wife.

Now my son is doing business again, and investing millions of dollars in it is not a small amount of money. If it is handed over to outsiders, he, the father, is really worried. He refused to be a Chu Zhongtian agent because the agent could get only 5% of the money, not much. It's different now. If something goes wrong, the money will be lost. It's not that he doesn't believe in Xu Xiaodi and Meili, but now his son's agent team is taking advantage of this opportunity to expand. Meili and Xu Xiao

Di is also the candidates determined by Chu Zhongtian himself. What about the people recruited after that? Chu Zhongtian obviously cannot be released in person. He does not have the energy or the need to do that. So as his son's father, Chu Zuosheng felt that he should check on him. At least he had done business before and was not unfamiliar with business matters. Moreover, he had experienced more things and had richer life experiences. He also had his own set of things in terms of people. In short, he would help his son a lot when doing these things.

Chu Zhongtian also thought so, but his father used to tell him that he wanted to enjoy a peaceful life, so he was not embarrassed to say it. Now that his father took the initiative to ask, he naturally nodded and agreed.

In this way, Chu Zuosheng went to complete the procedures for suspending wages and staying at work - he still left a way out for himself.

So in the restaurant that will be established in the future, Chu Zhongtian participated in the name of his father. Literally speaking, this restaurant has nothing to do with him. It is his father's property. If it is done well, he will be considered a "rich second generation".

Chu Zhongtian gave all these things to his father and others, while he focused on recovering in order to welcome the upcoming new season.

My mother knew nothing about doing business, but she cooked very well, so Chu Zhongtian left her daily life in France.

In mid-July, Chu Zhongtian's right arm was removed from the stitches. After the hospital check, he told Chu Zhongtian that he had recovered very well and had recovered and that he could start rehabilitation training.

This is not just good news for Chu Zhongtian, but also good news for Metz Club.

In previous training, Fernandez has been asking Pjanic to play the main player and strive to shape his core position. However, everyone is used to Chu Zhongtian's playing style and is still a little uncomfortable with Pjanic's style, so the progress is not very smooth.

Now that Chu Zhongtian is coming back, the team will continue to adhere to Chu Zhongtian's style.

Chu Zhongtian participated in the team's training for the first time after he recovered from his arm. He did not practice with the whole team, but continued to stay in the gym or in a corner of the court, and carried out physical recovery training under the leadership of a physical coach, while also losing weight. In nearly three months, due to lack of exercise, his weight has increased. Fernandez's first task for Chu Zhongtian was to lose weight and restore physical fitness.

Technical and tactics are not very important, because Chu Zhongtian and this team have a very high tacit understanding and can play directly without training. He just needs to adjust his condition.

※※※When Chu Zhongtian began to resume training, the Asian Cup far away in Southeast Asia also kicked off.

Although the Chinese national team, which lacked Chu Zhongtian, was not highly expected by the Chinese people before going out, at least they thought it was natural to qualify in the group. The Chinese team was assigned to Group C, and the opponents in the same group were Malaysia, Iran and Uzbekistan. Chinese media and fans all believed that the qualifying situation in this group was very simple, that is, the two strong teams of China and Iran qualify, Uzbekistan and Malaysia were obviously "deadly playing supporting roles".

On the day Chu Zhongtian went to the hospital to remove the stitches, the Chinese team welcomed their first opponent in this Asian Cup.

In the end, the Chinese team beat Malaysia, the weakest in the group, with a score of 5:1. The domestic media were filled with joy and believed that the team was about to qualify.

On July 15th, in the second round of the group stage, the team tied 2:2 with the strongest team in the group, Iran, which was the strongest team in the group, which was also a good result. Considering that Iran is one of the favorites to win the championship, he can still get one point in a match against such a team, and he can qualify as long as he tied the team.

Chinese media have already started the game after the yy group stage.

Chu Zhongtian didn't watch these two games, because France did not broadcast the Asian Cup, so he could only understand the event information through the domestic network. Judging from the results of the first two group matches, Chu Zhongtian also felt that qualifying in the group was not a problem for the national team. So after training, he said: "I think qualifying in the group should be the lowest goal, right? Now the national team has scored four points, and as long as they don't lose in the last round, they can qualify. Uzbekistan should not be strong..."

The last round of group matches was July 18th. Chu Zhongtian still did not watch the game, but he soon received a call from a familiar reporter. The reporter first told Chu Zhongtian a bad news on the phone, and then wanted to hear his opinion.

"I remember you said three days ago that the Chinese team can qualify as long as they tie, Chu Zhongtian?"

"Yes, I said it."

"Well, I'm sorry to tell you that they didn't draw, they lost to Uzbekistan. 0:3.

When he heard this result, Chu Zhongtian was a little surprised. He was not surprised by the result and the score, but was surprised that he was not surprised at all. Although he did not expect the failure of the Chinese team, he was not unfamiliar with this result - how many times did the Chinese team suffer from "a goal to qualify"?

"The national team was eliminated, I want to hear your opinion..."

"I have no opinion. I haven't watched the game, and I don't know how the team lost... But, I'm sorry..."

"Then do you think if you can participate if you are not injured, will the result be better? There is a saying in China that if you can participate in the Asian Cup, at least there will be no problem in qualifying in the national team."

Chu Zhongtian shook his head: "Suppose, if it doesn't make sense, I might be better or not, and maybe it's worse. If the result is already out, I can't answer this question."

"But from the competition, we obviously don't have a clear idea..."

"That's the head coach's responsibility, not the player's. Even if I go, it will be useless."

Later, this sentence was exaggerated by the media: "Chu Zhongtian should be fully responsible for accusing Zhu Suishin!"

Or even more terrifying: "Chu Zhongtian fired a cannon at Zhu Suishen!"

This was the consequence of Chu Zhongtian's imprudent moment. This incident made him criticized by his father, thinking that he had left a tribute to the media. Fortunately, Zhu Suishun was soon dismissed because of the failure of the Asian Cup. Naturally, no one came to bother Chu Zhongtian's words, and everyone was always willing to beat the dogs. Chu Zhongtian's accusations against Zhu Suishun had long been submerged in the vast ocean where the whole people were salivating.

However, Xu Xiaodi later said to Chu Zhongtian: "Now it seems that it's time for you to be injured in the League Cup final. If you are not injured, enter that national team and participate in that Asian Cup, you may be criticized by fans and media, and your reputation will be stinking. Now, the national team has lost to Kuala Lumpur, and the whole team and Zhu Suishin have been scolded by Chinese fans as pig heads, and only you survived. Not only that, people in China now regard you as the savior of Chinese football. They all think that as long as you have you, any problem can be solved."

Chu Zhongtian could only laugh and cry when he heard this. If he was really a savior, he would not be able to save Chinese football. Unless he was given ten players of the same level as Metz, he would still have some confidence to lead the team to the knockout stage.

After the national team was eliminated, Chinese media kept coming to interview Chu Zhongtian, wanting to hear his opinion. Then ask him if he had participated in it, would the result be better than now?

Chu Zhongtian used the excuse of "football has no ifs and no assumptions" to refuse to answer such stupid questions.

The story of the national team ended this summer. The failure of the national team has nothing to do with Chu Zhongtian and has nothing to do with Chu Zhongtian - because everyone always feels that if Chu Zhongtian is available, the team will not fail. Zhu Suishin was dismissed when he returned to China because his grades were too poor. The Chinese Football Association has started a new round of coach selection work. They are looking for head coaches who can listen to them all the world, and at the same time they must have some fame so that they can cope with the doubts of the media and ordinary fans.

Another cycle of reincarnation about Chinese football has begun. From officials to players, everyone will benefit from this cycle, except for football itself.

※※※Just as Chu Zhongtian actively recovered his physical fitness and lost weight, the team was also making personnel adjustments.

Ribery left, and another person was ready to leave. He was the team's first captain, but he had been unable to play as the main defender Stefan Bobiconi Metz club has reached a transfer agreement with the Turkish Premier League team Manisaspor. Bobiconi will leave the team for a transfer fee of 5 million euros and play in the Turkish Premier League.

On July 21st, Chu Zhongtian came to the training base as usual. In the locker room, he and everyone held a small farewell ceremony for Bobiconi who was traveling farewell. Everyone sent their blessings, hoping that the team's captain could have a bright future in Turkey.

Although he won the League Cup at Metz, he prefers the main identity as a champion than a championship trophy that he got on the bench. In Metz, he can only play as a substitute and cannot be the main player, so he is eager to leave. Just like Leka at the time.

In fact, Fernandez doesn't want to let him go because he is a very outstanding substitute. But unfortunately, Bobby Coney himself is not willing to stay in the team as a substitute. In another season, his contract with Metz will expire. If he wants to leave, Metz will not get a single euro. As a last resort, he has to resell him this summer.

Bobby Coni is also a player trained by Mets himself. In addition to being young, he was loaned to receive training in the 2001-02 season, he has been playing football for Mets for seven seasons. He also has a high status in the minds of fans. Although he is not as prestige as a captain and looks more like a good old man, he has a good reputation in the locker room. Now that he is leaving, everyone is still reluctant to leave.

After hugging and saying goodbye to everyone, Bobby Coni picked up his own thing and said goodbye to everyone: "Goodbye guys, maybe I will come back one day, but you shouldn't be on the team at that time, right? Good luck to you and good luck to Messe."

This is the cruelty of professional football, no one can avoid it.

Seeing Bobby Coni's departure, Chu Zhongtian thought of himself. In another season, he will leave Mess. Will he say goodbye to everyone like the captain, or will he disappear before everyone's eyes like Ribery without even saying hello?

※※※This summer, Fernandez did not buy people like last year. He did not make much adjustments in other places except to supplement the defense line. Goalkeeper Winby is already 35 years old. He said that he will leave the team after playing this season. He himself knew that he would not be able to play as the main player in the team. It would be better to wait until the contract expires and go to a team that can give him the main player for free.

Fernandez bought Pierre_ebede, a Cameroon goalkeeper who was once selected for the national team, from Greece's panathinaikos.

Bobby Coni left, and there was one substitute in the central defender position. So the 32-year-old veteran Pape_diop, who once played in the French Ligue 2, joined the free transfer.

People in other positions are basically promoted from the youth team. Metz has the number one youth training camp in France. Their youth team can produce many talented players every year. Fernandez chooses promising people to stay in the first team, and the others are either sold or rented out for training.

At the end of July, the team's left-handed forward Fabio Felicio was favored by the Spanish team Espanyol. Felicio also hoped to leave Mess. He has been here for a season but has not adapted to France's life and is not the absolute main player in the team. Most of the time, the starting lineup of the left-handed forward is Obraniac. At the end of the season, Matthew Valbuena also had the momentum to come from behind. Therefore, Felicio decided to leave Mess and find another high. Spain and Portugal have a similar living habits. It is better to play football in Spain than play in France, and can also alleviate his thought pain.

In the end, the clubs of both sides reached an agreement, and Felicio transferred to Espanyol for 2 million euros. A season ago, Metz brought him from Lelia and spent 140,000 euros. A season later, he won the League Cup championship with Metz, and his value increased by more than ten times, up to two million. Metz did a good job in this deal.

After Felicio left, he made a free place for Matthew Valbuena, and he will compete with Oblaniac for the starting position in the new season.

In the right forward position, after Ribery left, there was only Obetan, and he also needed to be supplemented. Fernandez had two ideas, one was to let Pjanic play the left forward. However, from the pre-season warm-up match and training, it can be seen that the effect was not very good, and Pjanic was not used to playing on the wing. Another way is to naturally replenish fresh blood from the transfer market.

In the end, Metz bought a local player Geoffrey_doumeneng from Valenciennes for 3 million euros.

Ibisevic, who scored 17 goals for the team on all fronts last season, was tempted by Germany.

Wolfsburg hopes to introduce the tall Bosnia and Herzegovina shooter, who offers 5 million euros.

However, Fernandez did not agree, claiming that Ibisevic is not a seller.

With Ribery gone, Fernandez had high hopes for Ibissevic, hoping that his performance in the new season would be higher. Last season, Ribery was Mess' main scoring point, and the forwards seemed to be a foil. They attracted the attention of the opponent's defenders, pulled the defense line for Ribery, and created space for Ribery. From now on, the forwards will restore their true colors.

More than one Ibissevic is listed as a non-sale product, and Menez. Menez has also received invitations from many teams this summer, especially foreign teams. Among them are giant teams such as Inter Milan, Roma, Manchester United and Liverpool. However, after talking to Fernandez, Menez told the media that he would continue to stay in Messe.

"Both my coach and I think it's not the time for me to go out. I'll continue to get exercise in Metz."

※※ On August 4, the 2007-2008 Ligue 1 kicked off. Strasbourg played against Marseille at home at the show, and the two sides tied with 0:0. At five o'clock the next afternoon, Metz also ushered in their first game of the new season, challenging Le Mans away.

In this game, Chu Zhongtian did not go out with the team. From the arm stitch removal in mid-July to the present, Chu Zhongtian has been doing physical training to restore physical fitness and lose weight. His physical condition has not yet recovered to a substitute who can participate in the game. So he stayed in Metz in this game.

This game was Pjanic's first time representing Metz in the professional league. Because Chu Zhongtian was not around, he was put on the starting list by Fernandez. So this game became his first professional league starter.

Pjanic, who was only seventeen years old and two months old, served as the team's midfielder in the game. Messe's midfielder changed to a diamond position. In the past, when Chu Zhongtian could not play, Messe would occasionally play in such a formation. Menez was the front midfielder responsible for organizing the offense.

Pjanic's first Ligue 1 game ended in failure. Mess, who lacked Chu Zhongtian, was not very adaptable to letting a seventeen-year-old boy lead them, and Pjanic was not very adaptable to the pace of Ligue 1.

In the end, they lost 0-1 to Le Mans away. They started this season without Ribery with a defeat.
