Fritz Abel was watching with a poster. It was Chu Zhongtian, the core player of his favorite team. He felt that he was not a fanatical star chaser, but recently he found that he quickly fell in love with Hoffenheim's No. 8, and this No. 8 tended to surpass Salihovic in his heart. Since he came, his favorite Salihovic has become a supporting role. Although Salihovic also scored free kicks in two consecutive rounds, and has scored three goals since the beginning of the league, it gives people the feeling... On the court, he is at most the second male lead, and the first male lead is the person in front of him.

This poster was specially issued by Hoffenheim to promote "China Day". It contains the specific time of "China Day" and what specific activities there are. Everyone is welcome to participate. Of course, the highlight is the competition. You can enjoy a 30% discount by buying tickets with this poster. This is a big temptation for Abel.

His only regret is that he likes Hoffenheim for more than a season, but he has never watched any of Hoffenheim's games on site. Last season, Hoffenheim came to Munich to challenge Munich in 1860. At that time, he had no money to buy tickets and could only watch TV broadcasts at home.

The situation is the same as before. He has no money, and his mother will never allow him to run to Hoffenheim alone just to watch a game.

Although he couldn't go to the scene by himself, it was necessary to take this poster home and stick it on the wall. It was covered with posters of the stars he liked. Now Chu Zhongtian will join in and tie in with stars such as Salihovic, Chrisman, Beckenbauer, Gad Muller, Summer...

Although Hoffenheim eventually lost the league on Saturday, after watching the whole game, Abel was not depressed at all. He even saw some hope in that game, and some Hoffenheim could challenge stronger hopes.

So he was very happy. He had been very happy for several days in a row, and he turned a deaf ear to the sarcasm and teasing of the outside world.

In fact, this is also a way for him to escape himself. When he immerses himself in the football world, he will be much slower to react to the outside world. However, this method is only effective if the team he likes performs well. Once Hoffenheim loses, he has to bear those malicious ridicule. He can not read newspapers and magazines, nor read criticisms about Hoffenheim in these media, but he cannot go to school and face those classmates who are used to having fun with him.

※※※Chinese media also paid great attention to this "China Japanese" game. CCTV also specially arranged a filming crew to follow Chu Zhongtian two days ago from "China Japanese" to record his training life around the "China Japanese". In addition, they will also send Duan Bin to Hoffenheim's home court Carl-Benz Stadium to comment on the game on the spot, and Yang Chen will return to his hometown as a commentator and explain the game between Hoffenheim and Frankfurt with Duan Bin.

In fact, Chu Zhongtian didn't want CCTV to send a crew to film his life at first. Because Emily finally saw herself from the United States, it was rare that she had a world of two with her. She originally wanted to live together, but now she has to face a few large light bulbs. Can he be willing?

He initially wanted to refuse, but Emily stopped him from doing this and agreed to it on his behalf. Her reason was that Chu Zhongtian had encountered huge resistance in commercial developers due to his transfer to Hoffenheim. If he still refused the media publicity, the subsequent work would be even more difficult. This is an opportunity to promote himself and let himself appear in front of the public again. Why should he refuse? As for the two-person world... "We are all public figures, Chu. Can't we still use the camera lens as air? We should do whatever we should do. Besides, when we really want to go to bed, they can't still shoot there, right?"

Although he admits that what Emily said makes sense, Chu Zhongtian is not a child star like Emily who has been on the camera since he was a child. If he really needs a camera lens next to him, he can't use that thing with those people as air.

So when facing the tracking and shooting, he was always a little awkward. The photographer of the crew had to keep reminding Chu Zhongtian not to always look at the camera... In addition to filming Chu Zhongtian's training life, the crew also interviewed Chu Zhongtian himself and the people around him to introduce a comprehensive Chu Zhongtian to the Chinese people - his life in Germany, did he make friends in the new club? What is his relationship with the head coach? How do Hoffenheim fans view him.

These are things that cannot be seen in the game, and are also what Chinese fans are eager to know.

In fact, this kind of shooting happened ten years ago. When Li Jinyu went to play football in French Nancy, CCTV's "Football Night" program broadcast a short film about him living in France. At that time, he made his own lunch - cooking spaghetti - while chatting with CCTV reporters who filmed, telling the hardships of living alone here. Yang Chen also had such treatment. At that time, there were not many Chinese players who could go abroad, and everyone was very curious about the life of Chinese players after they went abroad.

Nowadays, there are more players studying abroad and the information on the Internet is developed, so it is easier to understand someone’s information. However, such short films are still very popular, but because the image of Chinese football has plummeted, the media have no interest.

Chu Zhongtian is an exception. He is like a lotus in the dirty Chinese football environment. He has excellent football skills, worth 30 million yuan, and is the most expensive player in Asia. He also has a Hollywood movie star girlfriend. He also has many industries under his name, but he does not have the airs of big stars. Fans sign and take photos and other requirements will be met one by one, and he will never show an impatient expression. In addition, he is also keen on charity, with a charity fund, donating money and materials in the 512 Wenchuan earthquake, donating schools, and appearing in the disaster area many times in the disaster area to comfort the victims, and donating charity money... Such a person should not be a football player. Because no Chinese player can compare with even anything he does.

Chu Zhongtian has such a high popularity in China, so when he unexpectedly announced his joining Hoffenheim, it is not difficult to understand why there were so many disappointments, opposition and even anger in China - everyone has high hopes for him, and everyone puts all their hopes on his shoulders, and no one wants to see Chu Zhongtian "degenerate". The so-called people go to high places and water flows to low places. How can a person who carries so much hope go to low places like water?

This is what the so-called deep love and deep responsiveness mean.

Until now, many people hope that Hoffenheim will be relegated this season, so Chu Zhongtian will be able to get out of the sea of ​​suffering. But looking at Hoffenheim's performance in these six rounds of leagues, it is still difficult for them to relegate...※※ This day is Friday, with the last training class before the game. Generally speaking, the last training class before the home game, Rangnick will not be arranged at the training base in Hoffenheim, but at the home court of Mannheim, Karl-Benz Stadium.

After home training, the team returned to the hotel to prepare for the next day's game.

Early that morning, in front of a group of CCTV's "light bulbs", Chu Zhongtian kissed Emily goodbye at the door. He would not go home after training today, and Emily would go to watch the game himself the next day, and Chu Zhongtian was ready for her.

Then Chu Zhongtian and the crew members went downstairs and they would take Chu Zhongtian's car to the Karl-Benz Stadium in Mannheim. Because they had not found a suitable house, Chu Zhongtian is still renting a house. A three-bedroom house is 100 square meters. For a star with an annual salary of more than 3 million euros, this house is simply too shabby, but Chu Zhongtian is very used to living there. Of course, he is still looking for a house. Once he finds a suitable one, he will buy it. It can be considered that he will settle down here.

Chu Zhongtian drove his Audi A6 along the expressway to Mannheim. It was 40 kilometers from Sinsheim to Mannheim. If you walk the expressway, you will arrive in more than half an hour. The co-pilot was sitting in the back seats, the photographer, the lighting engineer and the reporter were sitting in the back seats.

The sky in front of the expressway is gloomy, with the edges of the clouds pressing down very low, almost rubbing against the tall trees. From this perspective, it feels like "dark clouds are over the city".

"It's going to rain." Chu Zhongtian said.

"Ah..." The reporter sitting behind was a little disappointed. He didn't like shooting in the rain, and it was so wet that it made people feel uncomfortable.

"Are we going directly to Mannheim?" After the reporter was disappointed, he saw a street sign passing by the roadside with "Hoffenheim" written on it. The arrow below pointed to a fork in the road. Chu Zhongtian had no intention of turning in at all. He flew straight across the intersection and drove towards the sign marked "Mannheim, go straight".

"Well, Rangnik and I have taken leave because we want to take you to film, and I have to go directly to Munich after the game, so I drove to Mannheim by myself. They took a bus from Hoffenheim to Mannheim." Chu Zhongtian explained.

"Go to Munich?" The reporter found it strange.

"Oh, go see a friend..." Chu Zhongtian did not directly say who it was, but the reporter had guessed that the "friend" must be Ribery. If you want to say that Chu Zhongtian has any friends in Germany, except Ibisevic, it is Ribery.

Although Ribery is having an unhappy relationship with Mets' fans now, this has not affected the friendship between him and Chu Zhongtian.

The reporter was a little excited. But Chu Zhongtian poured cold water on him next: "But he doesn't want the media to disturb him."

"Uh..." The reporter who was told through his worries was a little embarrassed. He really wanted Chu Zhongtian to have a relationship and allowed them to shoot it - he photographed both Chu Zhongtian and world-class star Ribery, and this time he was back with a full load.

After adding fuel to the car halfway, Chu Zhongtian drove straight to the Karl-Benz Stadium in Mannheim.

After parked the car in the parking lot for professional players, Chu Zhongtian took the crew to the inside of the stadium. Then Chu Zhongtian would go to the locker room to change clothes, and the crew had to contact the press officer of the Hoffenheim Club and he would take them to shoot.

The training officially starts at 10:00 a.m., and the set time is 9:30. Those who are late will be fined. All fines are put into the team's small vault and are used in the team's collective activities. Rangnick has high requirements for discipline, and he will be fined 100 euros if he is late for one minute. So far, Chu Zhongtian has not been fined, and the person who has been fined the most is Eduardo. The Brazilian was once again half an hour late. Although he said it was because of traffic jams on the road, he still had to obediently put 3,000 euros into the small vault.

It was only 8:45 when Chu Zhongtian arrived at the Carl-Benz Stadium. If he hadn't been wearing this crew, he would have driven the car faster, and he would have basically arrived at the training ground one hour in advance.

As soon as he walked out of the parking lot, Chu Zhongtian met Carl Enke, the head of the club specializing in handling the fan club.

"Good morning, Chu!" Carl Enke was very happy after seeing Chu Zhongtian, and waved to say hello from a distance.

Chu Zhongtian also returned the gift: "Hello, Carl."

Enke looked behind him, then laughed: "You are the first one today, why didn't you come with them?"

"They took the bus, and I drove here by myself."

"Okay, you will be the first player to sign this jersey." Enke handed the jersey up.

Chu Zhongtian ended up signing his name on the jersey and pen.

The CCTV reporter next to him was unclear, but he didn't ask. He waited until Chu Zhongtian finished signing and explained to them: "This is an event in 'China Day'. Carl is collecting the signatures of all Hoffenheim players. Then this jersey signed by everyone will be auctioned online after the game. The funds raised will be used to fund the reconstruction of the earthquake-stricken area in Sichuan."

He has not stated that the money was transferred directly to his charitable fund account.

CCTV reporter suddenly realized and gave a thumbs up. "Thank you, German friends."

After saying goodbye to Enke, Chu Zhongtian went to the locker room to change clothes, and the crew saw the club's press officer Markus_sieger, who will take them to do some shooting.

After the team started training, they also gained the right to enter the players' locker room for filming, although only in just ten minutes.

The home team locker room is a penalty area for the media. If it weren't for the club's "China Day", CCTV's crew would not have taken a step. You should know that so far, Hoffenheim's home team locker room has not been made public to the German media.

※※※When Chu Zhongtian changed his clothes in the locker room, his teammates also arrived.

CCTV's film crew captured the scene of Hoffenheim players falling from the bus outside. It was about nine o'clock.

At 9:45, all the players came to the training ground, and the crew also moved their positions to the sidelines, and they could shoot and train throughout the whole process. This is a privilege they can enjoy, because after fifteen minutes, other media will have to leave the training ground, and only they can stay and continue shooting.

The training before the game was very simple. After warming up, the set piece training was conducted, and then there was a group match. During the set piece training, the crew, led by press officer Siegel, entered the home team's locker room, where the person waiting to introduce them was Duran, who was responsible for managing the jerseys and sneakers.

Duran and another staff member Franz are placing the jerseys and sneakers of tomorrow's players in a fixed position. From this arrangement, Chinese reporters have learned about the roster of tomorrow's game in advance.

Chu Zhongtian's actions were at the door.

"Because he is the captain," Duran introduced, "he has to be the first to go out."

Then Duran opened Chu Zhongtian's wardrobe: "This is Chu's amulet."

CCTV reporter noticed a Wimbledon Athletics logo posted on the cabinet. There was a note below, which read in Chinese: "I was a crazy player!"

"This may be one of his secrets to success..." CCTV reporter murmured, and then he reminded the cameraman. "Give it a close-up, for a long time."

Duran introduced next to him: "Chu is a very popular young man. He has been in the team for only three months and has been in harmony with everyone. To be honest, I was quite surprised. I thought you Chinese are all very shy and shy, but he didn't."

CCTV reporter told Dulan: "This may be related to his wandering alone for seven years."

"Seven years?" Duran was a little surprised. "He is only twenty-four years old this year?"

"On December 1st, he went to study in the UK alone at the age of 18."

Before Chu Zhongtian became famous, no one knew about him. After he became famous, his old stories were revealed by the media. Although he did not start playing football immediately during his study in the UK, he was indeed a day of wandering outside.

"It's really not easy... I'm asking why he is more mature than his average peers..." Duran sighed.

※※※After shooting the locker room, the crew returned to the training ground, and the team was in the group stage.

From the group stage, CCTV reporters can clearly see that Chu Zhongtian is the core of the main team.

Football will always be passed to him, and he will be responsible for the offense. When defending, he appears in key positions many times in key positions to resolve the opponent's threatening attack.

"It seems that Chu Zhongtian is in good condition!" the reporter said excitedly.

Chu Zhongtian's good condition means that he will perform well tomorrow's game. Chinese audiences obviously hope to see Chu Zhongtian perform well, and he doesn't want to take a photo after finally taking a photo. In the end, he even failed.

At 11:35, the training ended. Assistant coach Caidler gathered all the players to summarize the training and ordered the players to do the final jog. Chu Zhongtian was called by Rangnick, and the two of them chatted together for a few words, and Chu Zhongtian returned to the team.

After the jog is over, today's training class will end here.

Just as the players were walking towards the lounge one after another, Chu Zhongtian, Ibisevic and Salihovic walked to the other side of the training ground and spoke to the digital cameras in the hands of the three fans.

"We are from Mannheim." The three fans introduced themselves first. "That's right, we have a friend who is going to get married in a week, and he is your fans like us. We want to give him a surprise. We hope you can say some blessings to her in German and your native language, and hope you can help us."

There is no way to refuse such a request.

Chu Zhongtian did not expect that their fans would have so soon in Mannheim. It seems that Hoffenheim's influence is gradually expanding, and it is no longer limited to Hoffenheim and Sinsheim, but also has fans in Mannheim next to him. If this continues, there will definitely be more and more fans who come to watch the game at home every home game.

"I wish you..." Chu Zhongtian just spoke but forgot to ask the names of the groom and the bride. He turned his head and asked the three fans: "What are your friends' names?"

"Luka Meyer, the bride is Mia Reina."

Chu Zhongtian coughed twice, smiled at the camera again and said, "I heard that the tenth day is Luka and Mia's wedding. I wish them a happy wedding." Then he clenched his fists and said in Chinese, "Grow old together, and have a noble son soon. Congratulations!"

Salihovic and Ibisevic also blessed the couple who had never met before in their own native language.

The three fans thanked them for their help after the filming: "Thank you, this will definitely be the best wedding gift for Luca!"

"It's so lucky for him to have you three friends." Ibisevic said from the side.

Everyone laughed.

CCTV reporters saw this scene in the distance. Although he didn't know what they were talking about, he also knew that Chu Zhongtian must have a good relationship with the fans here.

"Before the season, some people were worried that Chu Zhongtian would not be able to adapt to German football, and they would not be happy in Hoffenheim's 'country team'. Now it seems that these are our concerns, but not Chu Zhongtian's. He has lived a good life here. Although it has not been long, Chu Zhongtian has won the love of local fans with his performance..."

※※※The training is over and the shooting is over. Chu Zhongtian will follow his teammates to the hotel for rest. The crew will return to their hotel, sort out the materials for today's shooting, and then prepare for tomorrow's game shooting.

Chu Zhongtian waved in the parking lot and the film crew from the motherland: "See you tomorrow at the stadium."

Then he boarded the bus, and the two blue and white buses slowly drove out of the court and headed towards the hotel where they were staying.

When the bus disappeared into the camera, the reporter signaled to finish work.

He looked up at the gloomy sky. In the morning, Chu Zhongtian said it was going to rain, but it was noon that the rain had not yet fallen.

I don’t know if it will be in the afternoon. If it doesn’t take it in the afternoon, what will be in the evening? If it doesn’t take it in the evening, what will be in the tomorrow?

Will tomorrow be a rainy battle?
Chapter completed!
