Midfielder Ruler

The headlines of the European mainstream media revolved around the suspected unhappiness between Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo at the ifema exhibition center in Madrid, and Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo also came to the Valdebebas training base in their own proud cars. .

Since today is the first day of training for the new season, the new head coach Ancelotti is also known as a good person in the industry, so the time is later than other teams.

Even so, Tang Zheng drove the newly purchased red limited edition Ferrari LaFerrari from the hotel to the training base of Valdebebas in the northeast of Madrid.

Because it was the first time to come to Baldbebas training base, the guard didn't know Tang Zheng's new car, so he was stopped.

But soon, when the doorman saw that the player in the car was Real Madrid's biggest investment in Tang Zheng this summer, he immediately let it go.

Of course, before that, he had 'thick skin' and took advantage of his position to ask Tang Zheng for an autograph.

Tang Zheng would never refuse the fans' requests, so the guard had a very good impression of him.

Most of the time, the convenience for others is the convenience for oneself, so the old guard patiently told Tang Zheng where the parking lot of the first team was and how to get there.

Tang Zheng had a good memory, he followed the guard's instructions and drove to the designated parking lot for the first team in less than two minutes.

In the parking lot, Tang Zheng saw the clear scene of Jinghe River.

Why is the Jinghe distinct?

Audi is the official Tier 1 partner of Real Madrid. Chairman Florentino, in order to have a long-term cooperation with each other, advocated that the parking of players should be standardized. Audi series cars are parked in front of the eye-catching huge Audi logo, and non-Audi series cars are parked on the other side , thus forming a huge visual advertising effect.

It is worth mentioning that apart from sponsoring Real Madrid in cash, Audi will also send a luxury car to the first-team players every year. The model is chosen by the Real Madrid players themselves. Tang Zheng has just joined, and the related work has not been completed yet.

However, the ownership of the vehicle provided by Audi does not belong to the player, it still belongs to Audi, but the player can change it at will every year, and the right to use it is one year.

The previous reminder from the doorman not only informed the first team of the parking lot location, but also told the places to pay attention to when parking, so Tang Zheng's car was parked on the other side of the huge Audi advertising logo.

Pull on the handbrake with your right hand, and then press the button to close the hood.

Tang Zheng got out of the car, put his right hand on the upper edge of the door, and suddenly there was the sound of a sports car exploding.

Not long after, a beautiful and elegant red Ferrari 599 GTO parked 30 centimeters to the right of Tang Zheng's LaFerrari, only half a fingernail away from Tang Zheng's unclosed car door.

Tang Zheng looked down at the owner in the car and frowned.

Because... it was Cristiano Ronaldo who parked.

At this time it was still early, the parking lot was sufficient, and Cristiano Ronaldo's car chose to park next to Tang Zheng, the distance control was very subtle, so Tang Zheng understood it as a demonstration.

But Tang Zheng didn't pay too much attention to Cristiano Ronaldo, he closed the car door, ignored Cristiano Ronaldo's provocative gaze, then turned and walked towards the locker room of the first team.

"damn it!"

Cristiano Ronaldo patted the steering wheel dissatisfied.

Tang Zheng originally thought that the second teammate who came to the locker room would be Cristiano Ronaldo, but the teammate he didn't expect was Isco.

Tang Zheng had a very good impression of Isco, and they had dinner together last night, and they had a very happy conversation.

So when he saw Isco, he stood up with a smile, stretched out his clenched right hand, Isco looked around,

Seeing that there was no one else, he grinned, stretched out his right fist as well, touched Tang Zheng lightly, and said with a smile: "Just now I saw Cristiano Ronaldo's 599gto parked next to your new car, I was worried that you would be embarrassed, So run over here."

Only then did Tang Zheng give such an expression, no wonder Isco was the second to come to the locker room.

As for why Ronaldo didn't show up in the locker room of the first team, Tang Zheng didn't think too much about it. He changed his training shirt on his own, and then waited for Isco to change his equipment before going to the first team training ground together.

When Tang Zheng and Isco walked to the first team training ground, Cristiano Ronaldo had finished jogging and was training with the ball.

Tang Zheng was very surprised by this, Cristiano Ronaldo didn't even go to the locker room, so why did he change his equipment?

Are there other locker rooms?

Or did they go to the wrong locker room?

These two questions kept circling in Tang Zheng's and Isco's minds, until team vice-president Ramos came to the training ground and hugged Tang Zheng very warmly.

I learned from Ramos that the locker room is rarely used by everyone, because Real Madrid’s various facilities are among the top in the world. There is a player’s living building next to the office building of the Valdebebas training base, where top-notch equipment is provided for basketball. Team and football team use.

There are all kinds of facilities inside, such as small cinema, gym, swimming pool, game room, etc...

The place Tang Zheng and Isco are most interested in is the player bedroom that Ramos mentioned, that is, the player living building, where only first-team players and club officials of the football team and basketball team can enter, a total of 57 rooms.

Half belong to the soccer team and half belong to the basketball team.

Each room is equipped with a fingerprint recognition system and has a bathroom, king-size bed and balcony.

According to vice-captain Ramos, after the team gathers later, special staff will lead Tang Zheng and Isco to the living building, choose their bedroom, and then record their fingerprints.

During this period, apart from Cristiano Ronaldo and Khedira, the first-team players who came to the stadium would take the initiative to hug Tang Zheng and exchange some pleasantries.

The past 2012-2013 UEFA Champions League final was unforgettable for Real Madrid players.

Goalkeeper Iker Casillas even joked: "If I had a gun in my hand, I would shoot you without hesitation."

Tang Zheng now masters Spanish, English, German, and even a little bit of Polish, so there is no language barrier between him and his teammates.

Coupled with Tang Zheng's good communication skills, the first meeting with his new teammates was very pleasant.

Cristiano Ronaldo did not take the initiative to communicate with Tang Zheng because of Tang Zheng's 'arrogance' and lack of face, while Khedira's friend Ozil was sold to Premier League Arsenal because of Tang Zheng's arrival.

Not long after, the team's new coach Ancelotti led his four-person coaching team to the first-team training ground.

Among the four, Tang Zheng only knew one of them, and that was former world superstar Zidan Zidane.

Although Ancelotti had previously spoken to the first-team players one by one, this was the first time they met each other, so he communicated with each player very cordially.

It is not unreasonable for Ancelotti to be called a good old man by industry insiders and the media. He handles the relationship with players quite well, which is obviously different from his predecessor Mourinho, so everyone has a very good impression of him.

Coach Ancelotti has initially established communication with the players, but new players and old players have not yet.

And this also highlights Ancelotti's high EQ.

Generally, new coaches may ignore this point, but Ancelotti will not, especially the heavy introduction to Tang Zheng, who performed most dazzlingly in the past 2012-2013 season.

Everyone welcomed Tang Zheng's arrival, but it seemed not to Cristiano Ronaldo and Khedira.

Ancelotti, who stood at the front of the queue, had a panoramic view of this scene and shook his head inwardly. It seemed that what he was worried about...had come.

Cristiano Ronaldo joined Real Madrid in 2009 with a historical record of 96 million euros. Four years later, Tang Zheng joined Real Madrid with a transfer fee of more than 100 million euros. It is a kind of 'disrespect' to Cristiano Ronaldo .

Especially in recent years, Cristiano Ronaldo has gradually become Real Madrid's number one star. He doesn't like someone who is more popular than himself, especially this team.

Tang Zheng's playing style was tough and his personality seemed easy-going, but in fact he gave Ancelotti the feeling of a raptor crossing the river.

In addition, Tang Zheng came to Real Madrid with the status of the Triple Crown, and he was young, so he naturally had a domineering aura.

Thinking of this, Ancelotti's head hurt again.

Zidane, who has just become Ancelotti's assistant, also discovered the problem. In the past, he was influenced by Ronaldo and had always admired Tang Zheng's talent. He can become an assistant coach from the chairman's advisor. Joining Tang Zheng is very important. relation.

He knew that if Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo's problems were not dealt with properly, Real Madrid's results in the 2013-2014 season would not be much better.

There are many grievances among giants, especially for top giants like Real Madrid, it is even more severe.

On the first day of the training camp of the new season, Ancelotti did not arrange too much training content for the team, but only formulated simple recovery training, and then physical fitness coach Giovanni Mauri took the players to the medical department for physical training. Various functional tests.

With the development of modern football, training requires science.

What surprised the new medical director of Real Madrid, Jesús Olmer, was that Tang Zheng's physical condition was the same as that of Cristiano Ronaldo, and he was listed as the most disciplined player in the team.

Of course, it was just an accident.

Many people say that Cristiano Ronaldo is a talented player. In fact, few people know that his talent is not so good. He can grow into one of the top players in the world because he has worked harder than others.

Tang Zheng's great success in Dortmund in the past was directly related to his self-discipline and hard work.

As for the other players, the stats made Jesús Olmer shake his head.

Compared with the data left at the end of last season, the difference is not a star.

Next, Real Madrid's medical team and fitness coach Giovanni Mauri began to formulate corresponding training plans for the players' physical conditions.

And taking advantage of the free time, Tang Zheng, Isco, Iljaramendi, Carvajal, and Casemiro, led by the staff, walked to the living building connected to the office building, selected rooms and recorded fingerprints.

There are 57 rooms in total, and half of them belong to the basketball team. In fact, there are not many to choose from. The room Tang Zheng chose was the '108' left by Kaka.

Isco chose the '110' room left by Ozil, Carvajal chose the '105' room left by Essien, while Illararamendi and Casemiro seemed not confident enough, they chose relatively outside s room.

Regarding this, Tang Zheng shook his head.

It is not difficult to see from the choices of Illjaramendi and Casemiro that they are not very optimistic about integrating into the atmosphere of Real Madrid.

Like Isco and Carvajal who are full of confidence, they choose the room on the back, which symbolizes that they have a huge enterprising spirit.

※※※

In the Valdebebas office building, that is, the three-storey house connected to the living building, Ancelotti and his two assistants, Paul Clement and Zidan Zidane, sit in the coach's office.

Ancelotti knocked on the table with his right hand, then looked at Clemente and Zidane respectively, and said meaningfully: "Did you find anything special in the first training session of the whole team today?"

Clement lowered his head and thought for a while, then shook his head, expressing that he had nothing special to discover.

So Ancelotti and Clemente looked at Zidane at the same time, and Zidane looked serious: "I do have a small discovery."

Having said that, Zidane smiled and looked at Ancelotti: "Carlo, I think you should have found out, too?"

Ancelotti smiled mysteriously and said, "Tell me about your discovery first."

Zidane said: "I believe that many people have paid attention to the newspaper this morning, or they may have learned something from the Internet. There is something wrong with Don and Cristiano Ronaldo, but I don't know if this is wrong. It comes from the competition in the arena. Or the 'contradictions' outside the arena, if it is a problem at the competitive level, it will be easier to solve, after all, the two are in different positions and will not form a direct competitive relationship, the 'contradictions' outside the arena will be a bit troublesome."

Ancelotti nodded lightly, then shook his head: "No matter where the situation is wrong, we need to do the next work."

Zidane and Clemente nodded at the same time, expressing their approval of Ancelotti's statement, and then looked at Ancelotti respectively, meaning how to divide the work next.

"Let's do this." Ancelotti thought for a while, then turned to look at Zidane: "Zidan, you and Don seem to have a good relationship, he will leave it to you, and Cristiano Ronaldo will leave it to me."

"Okay! No problem."

Zidane nodded,

"Then what am I doing?"

Clement pointed to his face.

"You?" Ancelotti stood up from the sofa: "Responsible for specifying the next training plan for the players."

After that, he turned his head to look at Zidane again: "It's not too late, let's go now."

Not long after, Zidane walked towards the living building along the office building.

After the staff helped Tang Zheng record the fingerprints, he walked to another room, and he also helped other players record the fingerprint system.

Tang Zheng was wandering around the room with nothing to do, when there was a knock on the door suddenly, he turned his head and saw that it was Zidane, so he quickly walked up to him, and at the same time smiled and stretched out his right hand: "Hey~ It's been a long time not see."

"Didn't you see this at the training ground?" Zidane blinked at Tang Zheng.

Tang Zheng rolled his eyes: "I mean last time."

"2009-2010 UEFA Champions League final?"

"That's right."

"Your girlfriend is beautiful."

"thanks."

After a few shabby words, Zidane went straight to the point: "Actually, I came to you this time to talk to you about something."

"Is there something to talk to me about?" Tang Zheng suddenly thought of something: "Is it about the team?"

"right!"
