It’s not that the media always hyped Chu Zhongtian and Mourinho. Who made them really destined to be together? When at Chelsea, the two were nominal "masters and apprentices". At Hoffenheim, the two had just played in the Champions League last season, and the result was that both sides won once. At Meacha Stadium, Chu Zhongtian, as the core of Hoffenheim, scored a goal, but was restricted by Mourinho's tactics almost the entire game. If not, Hoffenheim would not have lost so neatly.

Back at the Rhine-Neca Stadium, Hoffenheim adjusted his tactics, and Mourinho did not expect it at all. This god-like man also had a day when the plan failed. Chu Zhongtian played his best form in history that day, and Hoffenheim also showed off his might and defeated Inter Milan 3:1 at home. You should know that in the Champions League last season, the only teams that could win two goals against Inter Milan were the only teams that could score three goals against Inter Milan, and the only teams that could score three goals against Inter Milan were Hoffenheim.

If it weren't for the final loss to Inter Milan in the penalty shootout, it would be hard to say who will win the final Champions League title.

After experiencing the grudges of last season, fate of this season drew them together again. In the same two rounds at home and away, Chu Zhongtian led Hoffenheim to continue to confront Mourinho. However, this time their opponent team changed from Inter Milan to Real Madrid.

There is no need to introduce the glory of the past of Real Madrid. There are probably not many fans in the world who don’t know the name of this club. In this football world, nothing can surpass Real Madrid. It no longer represents football. This name means a lot. The Bernabeu is not only a stadium, but also a stage. Countless people dream of being able to praise this stage, and some people hope to become the protagonist of the stage.

Chu Zhongtian is also unavoidable. He hopes to become the protagonist of this stage and conquer the Bernabeu Stadium.

He knew Real Madrid was a giant, but he was never afraid. He had always had no shortage of opportunities to face the giant and challenge the giant Goliath. When he was still playing amateur football at Wimbledon, he challenged the then giant Chelsea in the FA Cup, and he scored two goals in a row to help the team eliminate Chelsea. He transferred to Metz. In France, Lyon was the giant he had to face. As a result, they eliminated Lyon in the French Cup and finally won the French Cup. When they transferred to Hoffenheim, the newly promoted team, they were called David the shepherd boy by the German media, and Bayern Munich was the giant Goliath in their eyes. After two seasons, they won more than less against Bayern Munich, and were even "Bayern nemesis".

So Chu Zhongtian has rich experience in challenging the giant Goliath. He is not afraid of any strong team, even a team like Real Madrid. On the contrary, he is very excited that he can fight with such a strong team.

When they learned the lottery results, some people on the team felt very frustrated. They originally wanted to do a big game in the Champions League this season, but they didn't expect to encounter such a strong group as soon as they got started. There were so many strong teams in the group. It was already very difficult to break through, so how could they dare to think about a big game?

Chu Zhongtian was very excited. He publicly stated in an interview with reporters that he liked the lottery result very much.

"Anyway, we must meet strong teams in the Champions League. Last season we only met Manchester United and Inter Milan. We are very lucky this season, but there are Real Madrid and AC Milan in the group stage. I like to play against strong teams, and I like the feeling of defeating strong teams."

Chu Zhongtian actually said that his teammates listened to it. He wanted to convey this idea to his teammates-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When he arrived in Madrid, Chu Zhongtian's attitude was still the same and he was full of expectations for the game at the Bernabeu. Rangnick was much more calm and low-key. He praised Real Madrid for his compliments, although he only scored four points in two rounds in the recent Real Madrid league, and his record of one win and one draw was not outstanding. He praised Real Madrid's past glory, and he also praised Real Madrid's new coach Mourinho, who believed that Mourinho was a very, very excellent head coach. His coaching Real Madrid will surely bring earth-shaking changes to Real Madrid.

And the reporters also want to hear how Mourinho evaluates this opponent he once lost.

At the press conference before the game, Mourinho was asked by a German reporter: "Mr. Mourinho, what do you think of the Hoffenheim team? We all know that your Inter Milan lost 1:3 at the Rhine-Neca Stadium last season."

Mourinho pretended not to hear clearly and asked the reporter to repeat it again. Then when he was halfway through, Mourinho interrupted him and signaled himself to understand: "Oh, Hoffenheim is a powerful team. A team that can enter the Champions League for two consecutive seasons in the Bundesliga. I have only heard of Bayern Munich before." Knowing that it was a German reporter, he quietly sarcastically sarcastically the low level of German football.

"What do you think of Chu in their team?" The German reporter refused to give in.

"Well, he is very outstanding." What surprised the reporters was that Mourinho no longer named all Hoffenheim players like before the first match between the two sides last year, but he did not mention Chu Zhongtian to express his disdain for Chu Zhongtian. His strategy was successful.

But this time, he changed his previous behavior and nodded and praised Chu Zhongtian for coming.

You must know that when he lost to Hoffenheim 1:3 in the 120-minute away game and allowed Chu Zhongtian to score two goals for his team, he never praised Chu Zhongtian's performance, even a word.

What's wrong with him today?

Is it another conspiracy?

Taking advantage of the moment when the reporters were stunned, Mourinho stood up and announced that the pre-match press conference ended. Thank you everyone, and bowed and stepped down.

※※※ "Hey, that guy Chu Mourinho actually praised you!" Ibisevic said to Chu Zhongtian that he was watching TV. In this match against Real Madrid, he and Chu Zhongtian were in the same room.

Chu Zhongtian is calling Xu Xiaodi. Regarding the acquisition of Sichuan Football Team, Xu Xiaodi needs to inform Chu Zhongtian of the latest progress at any time.

Hearing Ibisevic speak, he glanced at the TV screen, where the video of Mourinho attending the pre-match press conference was being played. The subtitles at the bottom of the screen were called like this - "Jose: Chu is excellent."

He did not respond to Ibisek immediately, but turned to continue listening to Xu Xiaodi's report. Ibisek, who lived in the same room as him, was used to it. Not only him, but other Hoffenheim, who lived in the same room with Chu Zhongtian when he went out to play away games, were used to Chu Zhongtian never going anywhere, and kept calling with his wireless laptop. Everyone knew that he was not only a player, but also the chairman of a listed group, and he was very busy. He went back to China to play games, and seemed to be even busier. However, no one knew what he was busy with.

In the past, there was a player in China who was both a player and a boss. His name was "Hao Haidong". Chinese media and fans called him "Hao Dong" at that time. Now Chu Zhongtian has also been upgraded, and some media have begun to call him "Dong Chu"... After acquiring Sichuan Football Team, people from the Provincial Football Association did not expect that Chu Zhongtian's first request was not financial support, policy tilt, or preferential prices on the land, but the name of the club.

They did not expect Chu Zhongtian to insist on the name "Sichuan Quanxing".

They can't do anything about this, so they have to go to Quanxing Group to discuss it. After all, they are using someone else's name. Although this name actually has nothing to do with Quanxing anymore.

Their concern is that in China, the reputation of football is very bad, and the shady stories about football are exploded one after another. Quanxing Group will worry that Sichuan Football Team will use this name to reduce Quanxing Group's image in the minds of consumers. Once there is any negative news in the club, the people who don't know the truth will connect these negative news with Quanxing Group, thereby smearing Quanxing Group.

Their concerns were correct and reasonable. When Quanxing Group heard that Chu Zhongtian planned to accept Sichuan Football's request to use their names, he refused, saying that their names could not be used.

Chu Zhongtian said, OK, we won’t acquire Sichuan Football Club.

For so many years, Xinchuan Football Team could not even sell the title rights, and the main sponsor could not be found. Finally, a God of Wealth was invited. Why were the people from the Football Association willing to let it go? They quickly persuaded Xu Xiaodi, who represented Chu Zhongtian, hoping that Chu Zhongtian would think carefully. It is not necessary to use the name Sichuan Quanxing. It is also good to change to another name, such as Sichuan Zhongtian, which sounds very nice. They understand Chu Zhongtian's meaning is to commemorate the Sichuan Football Team that once made countless people willing to give everything, but the name is just a code name.

It is still Sichuan Football Club, and the name is the same... Chu Zhongtian insists on using the name Sichuan Quanxing. For him, the four words "Sichuan Quanxing" have long been no longer the same code name, which means his most ignorant ideal and purest feelings in his childhood. After changing his name, he himself has no enthusiasm for investment. He doesn't seem to feel the name "Sichuan Zhongtian", even if it was named after him... In the end, Gong Jianmin mediated, and Chu Zhongtian expressed his willingness to pay for the team's permanent naming rights, which would be fine.

After considering it for a few days, Sichuan Quanxing Group finally launched the position of chairman of the group. Yang Zhaoji, who was the former chairman of Sichuan Quanxing Club, who only served as the party secretary of the group, filed a bill - he sold the name "Sichuan Quanxing" to Chu Zhongtian for a symbolic price of one yuan, and stipulated that this name can only be used in football clubs and does not need to be used in any field.

What prompted Yang Zhaoji to make this decision was that Xu Xiaodi went to meet Yang Zhaoji and told Yang Zhaoji that Chu Zhongtian told him in a hotel cafe. Mr. Yang was moved by the spirit of Chu Zhongtian's willingness to invest in Chinese football, Sichuan football, and doing some practical things. He decided to allow Xinchuan Football to use the name of "Quanxing" at an ultra-low price of one yuan.

Because of this incident, Chu Zhongtian and Yang Zhaoji became friends. Yang Zhaoji praised Chu Zhongtian's attitude towards football. When he was not old, he also liked football and Sichuan football. He had some money, so he had the idea of ​​starting a professional football club. After eight years of persistence, he had seen all the ups and downs. He finally lowered his ideals in the face of the dark reality and chose to withdraw. Now another young man took his gun and embarked on the path of revitalizing Sichuan football. He was powerless to continue his career in football, but he would not sarcastically sarcastic to such people. The only thing he could do was to support him as much as he could.

Chu Zhongtian thanked Mr. Yang for his strong support and understanding. After knowing this, he called to thank him and said that he would definitely invite Mr. Yang to a meal if he had the opportunity to go back to Chengdu next time. Yang Zhaoji laughed and said, "Old, you are not good at health. If you can go to social events, don't go. I don't want you to treat me to a meal. You can give me a Chinese team jersey signed by you!"

Today, Xu Xiaodi called to tell him that his name had been completed. Once Sichuan Football Team was acquired, Sichuan Football Team will be officially renamed "Sichuan Quanxing Football Club". The main colors of the home jersey and club are bright yellow, and the design and production of the team logo are in progress.

Since the name is confirmed, Chu Zhongtian can start the specific acquisition action. Pujiang training base is not necessary. As long as you get the name, Sichuan Football Club will have it.

Chu Zhongtian explained to Xu Xiaodi what specific aspects to pay attention to in her next work, especially after talking to Xu Ming about the Pujiang Training Base, he hung up the phone.

Only then did he turn to Ibisevic and say, "Have he praised me?"

Ibisevic nodded: "Yes, he said you are excellent. Think about what he thought of you before we played against him for the first time last season? It seems you have conquered him, Chu!"

Chu Zhongtian shrugged: "That's not necessarily. Who knows if he wants to take this opportunity to make me relax my guard? Besides..." He laughed, "Of course I'm very outstanding!"

"Hey!" Ibisevic grimaced at Chu Zhongtian, "You are so polite!"

※※For Chu Zhongtian, this is his first visit to the Bernabeu. Although there were rumors before the season that Real Madrid was very interested in Chu Zhongtian, it was indeed just a rumor. Mourinho's more emotionally interested person was Khdira, who played for Stuttgart at the time.

However, for some people in Hoffenheim, the Bernabeu stadium can mean something else.

Before the game, Spanish media contemptuously called Hoffenheim the "Real Madrid second team" because they bought several people from Real Madrid.

Van Nystruei, who joined the team last season, had three very pleasant seasons at Real Madrid. When he left Real Madrid, he was different from those who left Real Madrid. He was grateful to Real Madrid, and Real Madrid also sent blessings to Fanny's departure.

This time he revisited his old place, he should also receive applause from the fans in the stands.

Metzelder's trip to Real Madrid was like a dream that looked beautiful. When he first joined Real Madrid from Dortmund, he wanted to take his career to a new level. However, frequent injuries left him almost without any presence in the past few years at Real Madrid. Most of the time fans couldn't remember that there was such a German in the team's defense line. He was a bit like Woodgate, the English central defender who joined Real Madrid from Newcastle with a halo. Real Madrid had been trapped by injuries. Before the contract expired, he was sold by Real Madrid to Hoffenheim, who continued to strengthen the thickness of the bench on the back line, so he returned to his motherland.

What does Real Madrid mean to him? Does he have a slight sense of belonging to this team? No one knows. Anyway, Chu Zhongtian didn't see Metzeld in the team, how did he mention his years in Real Madrid? Although he has a good relationship with Real Madrid players Fanny Struid and Gago, it was just a personal friendship.

When he returned to the Bernabeu, he was still on the bench this time. I wonder what he would feel when he watched his former teammates fight against today's teammates? Has he ever been attached to this stadium, and has he regretted his transfer to Real Madrid?

Gago only came to Hoffenheim from Real Madrid this season. He only returned from injury before this game. Rangnick still brought him to the Bernabeu. In the three and a half seasons here, from the main player to the substitute, in order to get the chance to play, he, who was once called "Redondo II", sacrificed his aura and ran desperately on the field, using rough tackles and fouls, doing the work of a blue-collar engineer. He grindled away the aura and received muscles, but he still couldn't play the main player in Real Madrid.

In order to find a better development prospect, he chose to transfer to Hoffenheim.

So far, it is not known whether his choice is correct, because he only had time to play for the German Cup for the team at halftime and was injured. I know that he has recovered recently and has not played other games on behalf of the team. This time he will sit on the bench and I don't know if he has a chance to play.

These three former Real Madrid players revisited their hometowns, which is also the focus of media attention.

At the airport, Van Nistrui was warmly welcomed by the Spanish media. There were even Real Madrid fans wearing Real Madrid jerseys to welcome Van Nistrui. They held up signs to welcome Van Nistrui home and waved posters of Van Nistrui. Among the three, Van Nistrui was the most popular and had the best reputation. It was natural that he was treated like this.

In this game, Rangnick will also arrange for Van Nystrue to start. He will partner with Ibisevic, who has been in good shape since the start of this season, and fight with his former teammates.
Chapter completed!
