The Red Devils' revival starts with retaining Mourinho

Amidst the media's praise, Manchester United took a chartered plane to Turin, Italy, to challenge Serie A giants Juventus away. Club chairman Rowley did not leave on the same flight because he had already left alone on a civil aviation flight and had arrived at the Best Western Executive Suites Hotel where he was about to stay.

The hotel's appearance is magnificent. Walking into the lobby, the luxurious decoration and elegant atmosphere make people feel comfortable and relaxed. Rowley walked to the front desk, and the staff checked him in enthusiastically and professionally.

After getting the room card, he took the elevator to his suite. Pushing open the door, the spacious and bright room came into view, with exquisite furniture, soft carpets and huge floor-to-ceiling windows, and outside the window was the beautiful city view of Turin.

Rowley put down his luggage and went to the bathroom to take a shower to wash away the fatigue of the journey. Then, he changed into casual clothes, walked to the window, and overlooked this city full of history and cultural heritage.

At this moment, the phone in the room rang. It was the hotel service staff who informed him that the welcome fruit plate prepared for him had been delivered.

Luo Lie opened the door, took the fruit plate, and thanked the service staff. He sat on the sofa, tasted the fresh fruit, and began to think about the itinerary for the next few days.

Suddenly, he heard a gentle knock on the door. Luo Lie got up and opened the door with some doubts. A strange lady stood outside the door. The lady smiled and introduced herself: "Hello, Mr. Luo, I am the exclusive housekeeper during your stay. My name is Alice. During your stay, I will provide you with thoughtful service to ensure that you have a comfortable and unforgettable experience."

Alice was wearing a well-cut black suit, a white shirt inside, and a light blue scarf tied around her collar, which looked very elegant and capable. Her hair was neatly tied behind her head, revealing a smooth forehead and delicate facial features. A pair of bright eyes revealed sincerity and enthusiasm, and the arc of the corners of her mouth was just right, giving people a kind and professional feeling.

Luo Lie was slightly startled, then smiled politely: "Hello, Ms. Alice, nice to meet you."

Alice turned sideways and made a "please" gesture: "Mr. Luo, I came to confirm with you whether you are satisfied with the layout and facilities of the room. If there is anything that needs improvement, please let me know."

Luo Lie let her into the room and said: "The room is very good, I am very satisfied."

Alice nodded and continued: "In addition, the hotel has prepared a series of special activities and services for you, such as our private chef can customize dinner for you according to your taste, and There are professional masseurs who can relieve your travel fatigue. Are you interested in learning more about it? "

Luo Lie listened with interest, and after thinking for a moment, he said: "I will go out for dinner tonight, well, let's relax with a massage."

Alice smiled and nodded: "Okay, Mr. Luo. The masseur will be in your room in ten minutes."

Ten minutes later, a female masseur with a European and American face walked into the room gently. She had thick brown curly hair like a waterfall, casually draped over her shoulders, and a few strands of hair playfully fell beside her fair cheeks, adding a bit of charm to her. Her blue eyes, like the deep Mediterranean, are like the bright stars in the night sky, bright and moving.

Her nose is straight, like a carefully crafted work of art by a sculptor. Her delicate lips are as pink as rose petals, and the slightly upturned corners of her mouth always have a kind smile, which seems to dispel all the haze. Her skin exudes a healthy wheat-colored luster, as if it has been kissed affectionately by the warm sunshine of Italy, delicate and elastic. She wore a pair of small silver earrings on her ears, which sparkled charmingly under the light, adding a touch of agility to her delicate face.

The female masseuse was tall and well-proportioned, wearing a loose white robe with a light blue ribbon tied around her waist, which just outlined her slender waist and made her more graceful.

Under the soothing music and the masseuse's just right strength, Luo Lie gradually relaxed, and the fatigue of the journey gradually dissipated. The masseuse's hands seemed to have a magical power, and every press and kneading fell precisely on the parts of Luo Lie's muscles that were tense. His movements were smooth and coherent, as if he was playing a silent movement.

Luo Lie closed his eyes and immersed himself in this comfortable atmosphere. He could feel his tense shoulders gradually relax, and his sore waist was greatly relieved. The masseuse's fingers were like a gentle breeze, brushing away his physical and mental fatigue.

As the massage progressed, Luo Lie's breathing became steady and deep, and his mind gradually became free. He no longer thought about the busy affairs and life.Pressure, at this moment, he was completely focused on the feeling of his body.

The music flowed in the room like a gurgling stream, perfectly coordinating with the masseur's movements. Every note seemed to gently soothe his soul, bringing him into a state of extreme relaxation.

When the massage was over, Luo Lie slowly opened his eyes and felt as if he had been reborn. His body was full of vitality and his spirit was particularly excited.

"Thank you, it was a wonderful experience." Luo Lie said to the masseur sincerely. The masseur smiled and nodded, packed up the tools, and left the room quietly.

After the massage, Luo Lie felt refreshed, and he decided to go out for a walk and feel the local customs of Turin.

Luo Lie vaguely remembered some travel guides about Turin that he had read in his previous life, and decided to start his trip to Turin from the Italian National Cinema Museum.

Half an hour later, Luo Lie walked into the Italian National Cinema Museum with a brisk pace. This building is like a palace of art, and its appearance combines modern and classical elements, which is unique and charming. The main body of the building is made of heavy stone, and the surface has mottled traces left by the years, as if telling stories of the past. Tall Roman columns support the magnificent porch, and the relief above the porch is exquisite and delicate, showing the classic scenes and characters in the movie. The archway at the entrance has smooth lines, giving people an elegant beauty.

As soon as he entered the museum, Luo Lie was shocked by the huge screen in the hall. The screen was like an endless dreamland, with classic clips from the history of Italian movies played on it in a loop. The black and white images carry the texture of time, and the colorful pictures are full of modern vitality. The familiar and unfamiliar scenes instantly brought him into the wonderful world of movies.

He walked slowly along the exhibition area, and the first thing that caught his eye was the shooting equipment of early movies. Those old and bulky cameras were like sleeping beasts, and the huge body exuded the vicissitudes of time. The film boxes were neatly arranged on the side, as if filled with countless stories and secrets. Although the lighting equipment is a little old, it still makes people feel the glory when it illuminated the set. Luo Lie gently stroked these equipment, as if he could touch the hardships and explorations at the beginning of the birth of the film, and feel the pioneers' persistent pursuit of dreams.

Then, Luo Lie came to a series of manuscripts and storyboards display areas of famous directors. On those yellowed papers, delicate lines outline vivid pictures, and the carefully conceived layout seems to be the embodiment of the directors' inner world. He carefully looked at each manuscript, as if he could see the figures of the directors working under the lights, and hear their inner passion and thinking. These manuscripts are not only the crystallization of art, but also the confession of the directors' souls.

In the actor exhibition area, Luo Lie's eyes were attracted by the costumes worn by many movie stars. Those gorgeous dresses, simple shirts, and retro suits, each one carries the joys, sorrows, anger and happiness of the characters. Next to the costumes were used props, an old pistol, an exquisite hat, and a cane full of stories. They all played important roles in the movie. Now they lie quietly in the display cabinet, but still exude a unique charm. Luo Lie gazed at these items, as if he could see the wonderful performances of movie stars on the screen and feel the emotional ups and downs of the characters.

Walking to an exhibition area, Luo Lie saw many scenes from classic movies reappear. From the rose petal-covered path in the romantic love movie to the dark and gloomy secret room in the thrilling suspense movie, every scene seemed to pull him into the plot of the movie. He stood on a simulated movie shooting scene, imagining how the director directed passionately, how the actors performed with all their heart, how the lighting engineer cleverly created the atmosphere, and how the sound engineer carefully created a feast of sound. He seemed to have traveled through time and space, and was at the scene of the movie's creation, feeling the fiery creative passion in person.

In a corner, Luo Lie found a small cinema with comfortable and warm seats. Some rare Italian short films were playing on the screen, the pictures were sometimes warm and touching, sometimes thrilling. He sat down and immersed himself in those unique pictures and stories, feeling the unique style and emotion of Italian films. The delicate narrative, profound theme, and moving music flowed through his heart like a spring, giving him a deeper understanding and experience of film art.

After a long time, Luo Lie returned to reality from the world of movies. He found that there was a girl not far away. She was wearing a simple light blue dress with delicate lace on the hem and a light blue ribbon tied around her waist, just right.Outlining her slender waist, giving people a fresh and refined feeling.

She had a light blue knitted cardigan on her shoulders, adding a bit of gentleness to her; the cuffs and neckline of the cardigan had delicate thread designs, which looked very delicate; matched with a pair of off-white flat shoes, with a small crystal decoration on the upper, flickering faintly under the light.

The girl had long black and shiny hair, falling on her slender back like a waterfall; at this moment she sat there quietly, with an elegant posture, and her side face looked particularly soft in the weak light, revealing a mysterious and charming atmosphere. Luo Lie couldn't help being attracted by her, and his eyes drifted towards her from time to time. He had a strong premonition that this was an oriental girl, or even a Chinese girl.

The girl seemed to notice his gaze, turned her head slightly, and their eyes met instantly. Luo Lie's heart was shocked, there was a trace of panic on his face, and he quickly looked away awkwardly.

It's not that Luo Lie is shy. As a playboy, he has always been surrounded by beautiful women. It's just that he knows the girl he met today. Or rather, Luo Lie in his previous life knew Zhang Jingyi, a female star that Luo Lie liked in his previous life. But if Luo Lie remembered correctly, Zhang Jingyi should not have signed a contract with an agency at this time, and was still studying at the Beijing Film Academy. How could she appear in Turin, Italy at this time?

After the movie, the girl still sat there quietly, as if she was recalling the plot in the movie. Luo Lie plucked up his courage and slowly approached her. He coughed lightly, trying to attract the girl's attention, and then smiled and said, "Hello, I noticed you when I was watching the movie just now. This movie is really good, isn't it?" Luo Lie played a trick and said it in Chinese.

The girl smiled slightly, a beautiful arc appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she replied softly, "Hello, I also think this movie is wonderful." Suddenly the girl was stunned again, and then she remembered that she was in Turin, Italy.

"Are you Chinese?" "You are Chinese!" Luo Lie and the girl spoke almost at the same time, with a little surprise in their tone.

The girl smiled brightly, her eyes full of surprise: "I didn't expect to meet compatriots here!"

Luo Lie also smiled and responded: "Yes, this is really a coincidence. Are you coming to Turin for tourism?"

The girl nodded and said: "I guess so. I participated in the exchange student program between my school and the Turin Conservatory of Music. I have always liked Italian culture and art, so I came out to have a look. The city of Turin is really full of charm, like those gorgeous Baroque buildings, every carving shows exquisite craftsmanship and profound historical heritage. There is also the rich coffee culture, and the street cafes are always filled with tempting aromas."

"Indeed, Turin has a unique charm." Luo Lie added He said, "Italian opera is also world-famous. The passionate melody and moving singing seem to penetrate the soul. And their food is also unforgettable."

The girl shared enthusiastically: "I went to many museums and those ancient buildings, and every one of them made me linger. Especially those exhibition halls showing works from the Renaissance, they are really the palace of art."

Luo Lie listened carefully and nodded from time to time to show his agreement: "It seems that you have gained a lot. I came here to participate in a business event and also to experience the style of this city."

The two talked more and more speculatively, from the attractions in Turin to the food in China, from the cultural differences to the changes in their hometown.

The girl said with emotion: "It feels so intimate to be able to chat with you in Chinese in a foreign country."

Luo Lie smiled and said: "I feel the same way, as if the strangeness brought by the distance has been eliminated at once. Let's get to know each other formally. My name is Luo Lie, a Chinese who grew up in the United States and currently works in Manchester, England. Although I grew up and worked hard in the Western world, my heart has never stopped yearning for Eastern culture and pursuing my roots."

"Ah, you are Chinese? Your Chinese is so good, I thought you were a real Beijinger. My name is Zhang Yiyi, from Hunan Province, currently a student, studying at the Beijing Film Academy, very happy to meet you." Her voice is crisp and pleasant, like a yellow warbler out of the valley.
