Chapter 140 Fans Day Activities
The next morning, Zhang Yuan received a text message from Hoffman just after he came back from exercising. He asked Zhang Yuan if the team practiced today.
Hoffman promised his son yesterday that he would go to the training base to watch the training after class today. Who knew that when he got home, he remembered that he didn't know if he would train tomorrow, so he had to ask Zhang Yuan today.
Originally, this kind of vacation is not fixed, sometimes rest and sometimes not. For example, when the record is poor, some coaches punish players for not taking vacation, and everyone has no choice but to train obediently.
Hoffman told the story, and said with a smile, let’s go tomorrow. Zhang Yuan had an idea, and he had nothing else to do today, so he just invited the Hoffman family to dinner. It has been troublesome for Huo Fuman to travel for so long. Fuman, we have also become friends, and the frequency of meeting is still quite high, but we have never got together. Today is just the time to fulfill his son's wish, and he can also have a meal to express his gratitude.
Hoffman was overjoyed. Unexpectedly, Zhang Yuan really regarded himself as a friend and offered to get together today.
Anyway, it was Zhang Yuan that his son wanted to see, and it didn't matter if it was training or not. Hoffman readily agreed, and said that he and his son would come to pick up Zhang Yuan when the time came.
After breakfast, Zhang Yuan still went to the training base for extra practice in the morning. He had just recovered, and he thought that playing football was like studying. He had to make up for the lack of so much training.
After five o'clock in the afternoon, Hoffman drove his own taxi and brought his son to pick up Zhang Yuan and Mai Xuewen. Hoffman's son was very excited to see Zhang Yuan. One is that Hoffman is a taxi driver after all, and sometimes he doesn’t go to the field to watch the game.
"You are Zhang Yuan? You are Zhang Yuan!" The little boy asked excitedly after getting out of the car, and the fat Hoffman stood beside him.
"I'm Zhang Yuan! Hello, sir, what's your name!" Zhang Yuan said with a smile while observing the kid.
Hoffman's son looked about eight or nine years old at most, with blond hair and a few freckles on his fair face, but he was not as fat as his father, but rather thin.
"My name is Joseph Hoffman! Hello, Mr. Zhang Yuan!" The little boy extended his small hand to shake Zhang Yuan's hand in a serious manner.
"Haha, nice to meet you! Mr. Hoffman!" Zhang Yuan was really amused by the kid, and quickly stretched out his hand to hold his hand together.
After talking to the little guy, Zhang Yuan and Mai Xuewen hugged Hoffman and greeted each other. When they got into the car, the little guy returned to his childlike self and said to his father: "I can talk to Zhang Yuan Sit together?"
It seems that he doesn't miss the time with his idol at all.
"Of course no problem, I'll sit with you!" Zhang Yuan sat in the back row, and Mai Xuewen took the co-pilot seat.
The little boy climbed to the back row and sat down. Hoffman smiled and waited for everyone to start the car and go to the city.
It was still early for dinner, and it was rare for him to get close to Hoffman's son, so Zhang Yuan proposed to go to the playground to have fun before going to dinner. This opinion was immediately echoed by Joseph.
Hoffman was not happy at first considering that his son would have to go to school tomorrow, but since Zhang Yuan came out today and his son liked him so much, he just went, it didn't matter for one night.
So a car of people ran to the playground. Mai Xuewen was like a child in essence. He liked the playground, but Hoffman had no interest. The three of them had a great time playing in it. Joseph quickly adapted to the playground. The feeling of being together with idols is not restrained at all.
This crazy play actually lasted for a full two hours, and it was already eight o'clock in the evening when the activities here ended.
The four had a steak dinner at an Italian restaurant, announcing the end of tonight's activities. Hoffman got Zhang Yuan's consent to send his son home first, and then send Zhang Yuan and Mai Xuewen home.
The little guy was really tired from playing today, and fell into a deep sleep in the car. The surprise prepared by Zhang Yuan was useless. After getting out of the car, Zhang Yuan handed the bag he brought when he came out at night to Hoffman and said: " I originally planned to give Joseph a surprise when I was parting, but who knew that this guy fell asleep! Inside is a signed football and a signed jersey for Joseph! If he wants other players in the team, I will definitely help He got it! Haha"
"Thank you so much, Zhang Yuan! Thank you!" Hoffman said gratefully.
Surprisingly, it was an old man who came out to pick up the child. The old man was obviously a fan of Schalke 04. He recognized Zhang Yuan. He hugged his grandson and greeted Zhang Yuan. Zhang Yuan also greeted the old man politely. Everyone knows that this must be Hoffman's elder.
Re-boarding the car, Hoffman took the initiative to talk about his son. It turned out that Hoffman was alone with his son. As for his wife who died in a car accident a few years ago, Hoffman usually had to work, so he had to take care of his son. He left it to his parents. Usually, he still doesn't take good care of his son. After all, he has to earn money.
Zhang Yuan still sympathized with Hoffman, he was really busy, and Mai Xuewen suggested why Hoffman should not find another woman.
"Forget it, I'm worried about being bad for Joseph!" Hoffman shook his head.
Zhang Yuan is really strange. Are foreigners also afraid of the stepmother abusing their children? !
This is the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale that Zhang Yuan forgot he had read, Cinderella, Snow White, who was not abused by his stepmother?Although it is a fairy tale, it generally reflects that foreign countries are similar to China, and they are all afraid of the stepmother abusing their children.
Back home, Zhang Yuan touched his phone to read text messages. He had been eating, drinking and having fun just now and didn’t care about the ringing of his phone. Now he saw the message from the club’s press officer. Tomorrow is the fans’ day. There will be no training. Please come to the normal training time Club collection.
What is "Fans Day"?The second monk Zhang Yuanzhang couldn't figure it out, so he asked Mai Xuewen, and Mai Xuewen didn't know.
The next day when we gathered at the training base, Zhang Yuan asked Neuer. Neuer came out of the Schalke 04 youth training and has been playing football for Schalke 04. Of course he knew what the fan day activities were. He patiently explained to Zhang Yuan As the name suggests, the Fans Day event is naturally to meet the fans and do activities together. The main purpose is to shorten the distance with the fans and increase the influence of the club in the region.
However, this kind of festival is arranged in advance. Some clubs hold it every month, some hold it every six months, and some hold it once a year. The time should be arranged in advance. It is the first time that the players are notified like this .
The thinking of Schalke 04 executives is that now has reached the critical moment of the sprint, and the club has been in turmoil for the first half month. Now take this opportunity to have close contact with the fans, feel the enthusiasm of the fans, and stimulate the enthusiasm of the players. Fighting spirit, work hard for the next sprint.
To be honest, this suggestion was put forward by Buskens. He felt that it is necessary to further stimulate the fighting spirit of the players. The rest of the games are crucial, and the players should meet the challenge with more high-spirited fighting spirit.
All the first-team players have to go to the fan day activities today, except for those who are injured, such as Rakitic, who did not come today.
After all the team members arrived, Buskens got on the bus and said to everyone: "Guys, today will be an interesting experience, I hope you like it!"
Zhang Yuan, Roberto Ozawa, and Schneider, who were transferred during the winter break, are the first time to participate in Schalke 04's fan day activities. As for whether they have participated in similar activities before, whether Zhang Yuan It is clear that he has not participated in such activities in Rimini and Inter Milan anyway.
In fact, Rimini and Inter Milan had similar activities in the past, but some of them were missed by Zhang Yuan, and some clubs only selected some players who were loved by the fans to participate. I said it, so it's normal for him to be unclear.
The place where the Schalke 04 players are going today is a coal mining company. The historical origin of Schalke 04 is closely related to the miners, so it is normal to choose a coal mining company. Although the coal mining in the Ruhr area is no longer as good as it used to be At its peak, after all, the coal that was mined and mined is gone, but there are still coal mining companies in this area, at least not yet. At the time of its heyday, there were more than 140 coal mines, but now there are only a few left. Zhang Yuan’s experience in the Ruhr area is not at all like domestic industrial areas where the air is not good first. The air quality here is still good. This is due to the transformation of the Ruhr area in North Rhine-Westphalia. The slogan "a blue sky above your head" has become a reality. In the past, the sun was covered by thick smoke and the ground was covered with cinders, but now the sky is blue and surrounded by greenery.
