I just wanted to play football, but I became a Hollywood god

Chapter 180 The arrogant challenge from the champion of the Japanese national competition!Gu Ran: What's your mother's last name?
The next morning.

Contented, Greg Deckard left the luxury yacht of the old Royce and returned to London in his Rolls-Royce.

Spending the night on a boat, shaking so much...

Greg subconsciously supported his old waist, and there was an aftertaste smile on the corner of his mouth.

After the driver started the car, Greg took out his mobile phone slowly and dialed the number of Manchester United coach Ferguson.

"Hi, good morning! Alex, I didn't bother you, did I?"

Ferguson's steady voice came from the other end of the phone: "Good morning, Greg. I'm at the Carrington training base now, and I have a youth team game to watch later—what's the matter? Is there anything?"

Greg smiled: "There is indeed one thing. I was invited to watch a high school tournament yesterday, and I found a very good seed. I think he is very suitable for Manchester United."

"Oh? Really? The probability of a good seed in the high school competition is not high!" Ferguson suddenly became interested, "However, if a big man like you can say that he is a good seed, then he must be very good."

Greg introduced: "He is a Chinese named Gu Ran. He currently serves as a left back, but I believe his position is not just a left back."

"Chinese?" Ferguson was very surprised. "Manchester United once had a Chinese player named Dong Fangzhuo. I have a very good impression of Dong, but it's a pity..."

Greg said: "Listen Alex, this Gu is different from Dong, he is better than Dong! He has Gareth Bale's speed on the wing, and Frank Lampard's organization and ability. What's more, he has a full moon machete that looks like David Beckham! What's more, his ball quotient is too high, he can deal with any complicated situation , and quickly took control of the overall situation! He is a natural ruler of the greenery!"

Ferguson on the other end of the phone paused for a while, "Greg, are you kidding me?"

Greg laughed: "No, Alex, that kid is such a treasure! Otherwise, why would I call you in person? The only regret is... this kid has been signed by Southampton Club, Southampton The Manchester United club is applying for a labor certification for him, so if Manchester United wants to get him, they need to wait for the winter window of this year. My suggestion is that you send a scout to watch his performance, as long as he plays in League One Yes, Manchester United should do whatever it takes to buy him."

Ferguson immediately said: "Thank you for your suggestion, Greg. If this kid is really like what you said, then Manchester United will definitely go all out to sign him and train him well."

"Okay, that's it, bye, Alex."

"Have a nice day, Greg."

In the Manchester United coach's office, Ferguson put down the phone and said suspiciously to himself: "A Chinese who has the characteristics of Bale, Lampard, and Beckham at the same time? And he is still playing in the amateur league? How is this possible? If this is the case, it should have been discovered long ago? Greg must be drunk, right?"

Ferguson thought for a while, then picked up the phone again and called Ed Woodward, Manchester United's sporting director——

To be honest, Ferguson doesn't like Ed Woodward at all. Ed Woodward was airborne from the Manchester United boss Glazer family, and he is full of businessman's breath.

Although I don't like it in my heart, the club really needs to discuss with this "San Dezi" about buying people.

After the call was connected, Ferguson said politely, "Hi, Ed."

"Hi, Alex!" On the other end of the phone, Woodward's voice was a little excited. "I'm glad you called me. Is there anything I can do for you?"

"Yes, there is indeed such a small thing..."

Ferguson omitted Greg's "exaggerated" description, telling Woodward only that there was a Chinese kid to watch out for at the High School Nationals.

Woodward laughed immediately after hearing this: "Why not? China is a market with huge potential. If we can sign a Chinese player, even if he doesn't perform so well, we can also take the opportunity to open sales in China." Market. Alex, that’s great, I agree! Let’s send a scout familiar with China to follow him!”

Ferguson nodded and said, "Then call back our chief scout in Asia, Jim Lawler. He once discovered Dong Fangzhuo. I believe he can communicate well with that Gu Ran."

Woodward said: "Okay, then it's settled, just leave this kind of trivial matter to me to arrange!"

Ferguson said, "Okay, goodbye."

Woodward said quickly: "Goodbye, I wish you a good day."

After Ferguson hung up the phone, he didn't think about it any more, and continued to check the game data of a player named "Paul Pogba" in the Manchester United youth team...

12 o'clock noon.

Gu Ran woke up from the messy big bed, his stomach growling with hunger.

Seeing the messy scene all over the floor, and Annie sleeping beside her, Gu Ran couldn't help grinning happily.

Gu Ran gently pulled his hand out of Annie's arms, got off the bed and stretched happily.

After improving your physique and physical fitness, your body will be younger and recover faster.

At the same time, the demand has also increased.

If it goes on like this... What will we do when Annie is gone?
Gu Ran sighed faintly, turned around and walked into the bathroom to take a shower, and then came to a set of liquid nitrogen freezing space capsule and sauna steam room for physical therapy to recover.

When he walked out of the bathroom, he regained his vigor again.

Although today is a holiday, there are still many things to do.

First of all... eat!
Gu Ran was too lazy to make a big meal, so he randomly found two pieces of steak and fried them on the iron plate, then made himself a bucket of instant noodles, added two poached eggs and two pieces of broccoli, and heated them up again for a while. Big bowl of milk.

The school team has no information about the finals today—another group of matches in the semi-finals will be held this afternoon, so they will have to wait until tomorrow morning at the earliest to know who their opponents will be in the finals.

In short, no matter who it is, it's over!

After eating, Gu Ran returned to his bedroom and began to draw the ending of "Batman 3: The Dark Knight Rises".

After more than three hours of hand-painting, Gu Ran finally finished the final ending.

Gu Ran stood up and faced the sea outside the window, stretched his waist, thinking about how to complete today's 10 pick-up progress.

It is definitely not possible to go to the Glop Gym, especially during this time period - Gu Ran has a deep understanding of the fanaticism of the local fans.

Instead, you can drive to the Southampton club to see the training of the youth team, so that you can't pick up professional football training bubbles, and you can adapt yourself to transition to professional training as soon as possible.

Well, it's decided!

lights~
At this moment, a system prompt sounded in Gu Ran's mind.

Annie wakes up!

It must be that he woke up and found that he was not around, and then he had negative emotions again.

The production of big stars of Annie's level is really stable. A big fluctuation in mood is just a bubble of talent...

Gu Ran picked up the ending of the hand-painted script, went downstairs unhurriedly, opened the door and walked into Annie's room.

"Gu! Don't leave me..."

As soon as Annie saw Gu Ran walking in, she immediately threw herself into Gu Ran's arms coquettishly.

Gu Ran smiled and rubbed Annie's hair, "I'm going to draw the ending for you, aren't you in a hurry to see it?"

Annie suddenly became happy, "Wow! Gu! You are awesome! Give it to me, I want to see it now!"

"Okay, okay." Gu Ran then handed over the hand-painted ending of "Batman 3: The Dark Knight Rises" to Annie, and gathered his thoughts along the way to collect the talent point bubble that Annie dropped.

——This talent point is temporarily stored in advance.

Gu Ran asked dotingly: "Are you hungry? I'll cook for you."

"Well, thank you!" Annie watched the ending with relish without raising her head.

Gu Ran smiled helplessly, then turned around and went to the kitchen to order Annie a bowl of her favorite "Scottish Braised Noodles".

After the noodles were ready, Annie just finished reading the end of the hand-drawn script.

Annie was wearing black silk pajamas, with bare feet, and ran into the kitchen with a full face of excitement.

That swinging look immediately made Gu Ran's young body a little difficult to control.

Annie jumped into Gu Ran's arms, wrapped her hands tightly around Gu Ran's neck, and praised eagerly: "Gu! You are so good! You should really be a screenwriter! Be a director! Your ending is too good. Wonderful! The character design of Catwoman is so good, so special, and so individual! I like it so much!"

Gu Ran explained with a smile: "The role of Catwoman is an anti-hero. Anti-hero means that it is not an ordinary stereotyped hero image, but a character with flesh and blood, good and evil, and strong personal charm—in the future, you will play the role of a cat." When playing the role of a woman, you must show your most charming side."

Annie said coquettishly: "I won't know."

Gu Ran smirked and said, "It's okay, I'll talk to you tonight, and you'll know how to act."

Annie said with a blushing face, "I hate it...I want noodles!"

Gu Ran said, "Then get off of me first."

Annie said coquettishly, "No, I want you to carry me to the restaurant~"

"Okay, okay." Gu Ran grabbed Annie's small waist with one hand, and walked to the restaurant with the hot noodles in the other.

Annie took a deep breath happily, "Ah~ it's so delicious! I dare say that the most delicious noodles in the world are those made by you, Gu Ran!"

Gu Ran: ...

No problem!
Gu Ran smiled, "Hurry up and eat, we have to communicate at night."

Annie was really hungry, so she held the bowl and ate it in big mouthfuls. In the end, she even licked every drop of the tomato soup in the bowl.

Such a scene can't help but remind Gu Ran of a scene from last night...

After Annie finished eating, Gu Ran said, "Annie, you can rest at home by yourself. I have something to go to the club's training base, and I won't be back until dinner."

Annie asked pitifully: "Can't you take me with you?"

Gu Ran smiled and said, "You've been exposed, aren't you afraid of causing more trouble when you go out now?"

Annie pouted, "Okay, I just want to ask my assistant for a poster of the White Queen, and I have to read your hand-drawn script from the beginning again. Go get busy, I will obediently wait for you to come back. "

Gu Ran said with satisfaction: "Well, I'll make something delicious for you when I come back tonight."

"okay!"

After bidding farewell to Annie, Gu Ran drove away from the villa.

Annie cleaned up the battlefield last night...

After everything was packed, Annie sat on the sofa, took out her mobile phone, and prepared to call the female assistant.

It wasn't until she took out her mobile phone that Annie suddenly remembered that someone called yesterday, and they called more than once, but the battle was so intense that she couldn't answer it at all, so she turned off the phone directly.

Annie quickly turned on the phone to check - there were more than 30 messages in the voicemail!

Moreover, they were all calls from the great director Christopher Nolan!
Annie panicked for a moment, and when she was thinking about how to respond, Nolan called again.

Annie quickly connected and said cautiously, "Hello?"

On the other end of the phone, Nolan said in a hoarse and trembling voice: "Thank God! Annie! You finally answered my call! You don't know how I got here for nearly twenty hours! I haven't closed my eyes yet, I I even worried that something might happen to you! So what were you doing last night? Why did you shut down your phone!"

Annie blushed, "Last night I was... well, I was too tired and fell asleep. I'm so sorry, Mr. Nolan."

Nolan said eagerly: "It's okay! You don't need to apologize to me! Actually, I don't really care what you did last night. What I care about is this hand-drawn script! I have to know if it really happened to me. Quantum entanglement!"

Annie asked in astonishment: "What is...quantum entanglement?"

Nolan said: "Quantum entanglement is... You can't understand it even if you explain it. Anyway, tell me quickly, does that Gu Ran really exist?"

Annie smiled and said, "Of course!"

Nolan on the other end of the phone breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, it seems that I'm not crazy yet! Annie, this script is so good, it makes me think it was drawn by my future self. Anyway, I really want to know everything about playwright Gu Ran, I really want to meet him! Talk to him face to face!"

Annie immediately said: "Mr. Nolan, I'm glad you like that script. As for Gu Ran...he's not by my side right now, so I'm not sure if he wants to meet you. I'll have to wait until he comes back at night."

Nolan said: "It's okay! Where are you now? England? I'll take the nearest flight to England now, so as long as he agrees to meet, we can meet tomorrow morning."

"Uh...that's fine." Annie could only agree.

Nolan asked eagerly again: "By the way, do you have the ending of the hand-drawn script? Can you pass it to me for a look?"

Annie smiled and said, "Yes, he just finished drawing today, and I'll scan it for you right away."

Nolan said excitedly: "That's great! Anne! Thank you very much! Then I'll hang up first, and I'll go find my assistant to buy me a plane ticket. Please pass on the ending as soon as possible."

"Okay okay."

Annie just hung up the phone when the phone rang again.

This time, it was her female assistant calling.

As soon as the call was connected, the female assistant yelled eagerly: "Annie! Why did you turn off the phone! I called you all morning! If I still can't get through, I will go to the Dune Villa to get you!"

Annie quickly smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I was...too tired last night. Why are you looking for me in such a hurry?"

The female assistant said anxiously: "Annie, the fact that you went to Cardiff to watch the football yesterday has been exposed by tabloid reporters! Now is the Internet age, and news spreads very fast! Now many entertainment reporters have come to Cardiff to guard you! "

Annie smiled and said, "Then let them squat there and guard."

"You can still laugh? Do you know that your agent and company already knew about this scandal last night! Your agent Rachel is going crazy! She can't get through to you, she is flying to The Southampton plane is on! She'll be there tonight!"

"Isn't it?" Annie was a little dumbfounded.

Her agent, Rachel Furness, is a rather strict middle-aged woman who absolutely does not allow her to have any scandals.

Rachel's arrival meant that Annie was really, really leaving.

This will be much faster than she imagined.

Annie thought for a while, and then said: "Do me a favor, try to delay her tonight, and tomorrow morning, I will naturally meet her and invite her to dinner."

"But Annie! I'm just an assistant, how can I hold back your manager?"

"It's time to test whether you are a qualified assistant." Annie has also learned PUA, "You can take her to the Ritz Hotel, buy her a drink, or put some sleeping pills in her wine. Last night!"

The female assistant on the other end of the phone was a little shocked, "Annie...you have changed so much."

Annie smiled and said, "This is the real me."

The female assistant paused, "...Well, I'm glad to see you regain yourself. I will do my best, but tomorrow, you must show up!"

Annie smiled and said, "Don't worry, oh yes, forget it tonight, and remember to bring me a poster of the White Queen tomorrow."

"……OK."

After hanging up the phone, Annie sighed faintly.

... Tonight may be the last night with Gu Ran.

So, today, try to impress Gu Ran the most.

Annie found out the maid's outfit, and began to wash and dress up seriously.

the other side.

Gu Ran drove to the Staplewood training base.

The security personnel at the gate had already recognized Gu Ran's car, and immediately opened the door for Gu Ran to let go.

Gu Ran smoothly parked the car in the first row of parking spaces, and then walked along the path into the training ground of the U18 youth training team.

At this time, in the U18 training ground, young players are competing on the field.

Just as Gu Ran walked to the sidelines, his gaze was slightly fixed——

He saw that among the young players on the field, there was an oriental player with the same black hair as himself!
This young player looks like he is seventeen or eighteen years old, and he dribbles the ball very fast.

What the fuck?

Who is this?
Gu Ran tried his best to search the memories of his previous life, but he didn't have the impression of Asian players playing in Southampton U18...

Probably for a trial run?
Trial training is a very normal thing. Before the start of the season, there will be many young players trial training. Generally speaking, the trial training period is about ten days and half a month. If the trial training is successful, they will be retained. If they fail to pass the training, will leave.

Gu Ran had never met this Oriental before, so there is a high probability that this person came to participate in the pre-season trial training.

The young Eastern player on the field saw Gu Ran looking at him, and immediately glanced at Gu Ran with a haughty look, and then accelerated his efforts to fight and fight on the field, as if he wanted to show off his strength to Gu Ran. .

The moment the two of them made eye contact, Gu Ran could probably be sure in his heart:

This guy is not one of his own, it's probably a small life...something with a pretty good life.

There is one thing to say, the basic skills of Japanese players are still very solid. After all, the Japanese Football Association imitated the British Football Association and followed the selection path of the national competition, so their football talents have been in a blowout state for the past 20 years.

However, this still did not prevent Gu Ran from hating them.

There is no need for a reason, it is just disgusting from the bottom of my heart.

At this moment, Gu Ran heard a very charming Japanese cheering voice from the sidelines not far away: "がんばる! Yuichi!"

Gu Ran was attracted by the melodious and melodious voice, and couldn't help but look sideways——

I saw, about 30 to 30 meters away from him, stood a mature woman who looked to be in her early [-]s and had almost perfect profile.

This mature woman is wearing an expensive beige dress, just standing there, showing elegance and intellectual temperament.

She is not tall, and she only looks about 165 in high heels. She looks particularly petite in the green field full of strong men.

Her body is plump, but she is not fat at all, but the kind of beauty that is mature enough.

She was wearing a sun hat and big sunglasses, which almost covered most of her jade-like face.

But Gu Ran can still feel the soft and mature charm like the white moonlight.

Gu Ran couldn't help but move slightly:
This sister... looks familiar!

It's like... a big star.

Gu Ran has a special sixth sense for creatures like "stars", and he believes that he will not be wrong in his judgment.

However, Gu Ran couldn't remember who she was for a while.

The woman also saw Gu Ran's gaze, and then smiled and nodded politely to Gu Ran—exactly like a Japanese housewife.

She is well maintained, not only has girlish facial skin, but also has a mature charm to the bone.

Gu Ran was stunned for a moment, then nodded calmly in response, and then turned his gaze back to the court.

The confrontation on the training ground became more and more intense.

The player named "Xiongichi" is really eye-catching. His shots are very powerful and his movements are exaggerated. He looks a bit like a tiger in "Captain Football".

Gu Ran stood on the sidelines and watched for a while, and successfully picked up 9 white training bubbles in the air, and at the same time automatically exchanged for a new talent point.

Today's pick-up task is considered done.

At this time, the training match of U18 players also came to an end.

"Yuichi, are you thirsty? Drink some water!" The mature woman ran up to greet him with small steps.

However, Xiongyi directly blocked the woman, walked straight in front of Gu Ran with a cold and arrogant face, and said in blunt English: "You, a Chinese, are the hopeful star of the Southampton club, right?"

Gu Ran frowned, folded his arms on his chest, and said coldly: "That's right."

"Remember my name, my name is Kawai Yuichi!"

Kawai Yuichi raised his head proudly, and said contemptuously: "I am the player and the top scorer of this year's Japan National Championship team! I came here for two weeks of trial training! I heard that you are very strong, but a Chinese, How strong can it be? I am not convinced! I want to challenge you!"

Yuichi Kawai?

There is no such number of future stars...

Still challenging Lao Tzu?So secondary?
You, a player who came to tryouts, want to step on my father to reach the sky?

Yuichi...Look at your crazy name!
Gu Ran frowned coldly, "There are many people who are not convinced by me, who are you? I need to prove it to you? I'm too lazy to talk to you, so why don't you just hide, don't make me sick."

"What did you say!" Yuichi Kawai had never been insulted like this before, and immediately clenched his fists, as if wanting to fight.

The mature woman ran over quickly, stood in front of Yuichi Kawai, and kept nodding and bowing to Gu Ran to apologize, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! Yuichi! You can't fight here! Apologize!"

Kawai Yuichi gritted his teeth and shouted: "Go away! This is a matter between us men!"

Gu Ran said coldly: "Look at you, you are not as polite as your sister."

Kawai Yuichi was even more ashamed and angry: "This is my mother!"

shit...

Mother? ? ?

no?Such a young mother?
Gu Ran was stunned.

But the mature woman nodded awkwardly and helplessly, confirming Yuichi Kawai's words.

It's really his mother!

According to Kawai Yuichi's age, as a mother, he must be at least 40, right?

But it looks like he is only in his early 30s!
Gee!

I have to say that we oriental women have a long flowering period, and the more mature they are, the more charming they are.

Japanese superstars around 40 years old...

Gu Ran couldn't help but asked Kawai Yuichi, "What's your mother's name?"
