Chapter 68 Corinthians, Brazil
Chang Sheng and Avril finally parted ways at the first international airport.
Because Avril left first, Chang Sheng went to see her off first.
Before going through the security check, Avril Lavigne said to him: "With you, I am very happy throughout the holiday. I will go to your uncle, and I know where you are now. I hope you will not think I am annoying."
"I welcome you at any time, Avril. But to be honest, I think you may be very busy in the future, and you won't have the opportunity to come to Spain to find me." Chang Sheng said to her.
"Why?"
"Because you're going to be a big star, Avril. You'll be flying around all day, giving concerts, and you'll be surrounded by eight burly men as your bodyguards at all times. You think you can still be alone Do people run into fights in a bar in Madrid, Spain?"
Avril laughed.
After laughing, she said: "I will become a big star, but I will not lose my personal freedom, uncle. Anyway, I will come to you. If I am busy, I will come to you when I am not busy. I am so sorry, I don't have a mobile phone, but I left your number, and when I buy a mobile phone, I will call you."
"Beware of jet lag and don't call me when I'm asleep."
Avril slammed her fist into the palm of her hand. "You reminded me, Uncle, what a good idea!"
"Hey!"
Seeing Chang Sheng stare at her, Avril laughed and leaned back, until finally she squatted down covering her stomach.
"Hey, isn't that funny?"
A strangely dressed foreign girl laughed so happily that many people in the hall heard her laughter, and they were looking towards her. But Chang Sheng is used to it.
These days, taking Avril Lavigne out and about, the two of them are always the most eye-catching ones.
Avril still had a smile on her face. Squatting on the ground and looking up at Chang Sheng: "I will call you in the middle of the night and tell you to get up and pee. Uncle!"
Chang Sheng rolled his eyes.
Avril stood up again, and then she looked up at Chang Sheng.
"You gave me this backpack, so you are not allowed to ask me to get it back.
" she said seriously.
Chang Sheng nodded: "Of course, if I said I would give it to you, then I would give it to you. But don't you think it's too big?"
"Bigger can hold more things!"
Seeing that Avril's petite figure was completely out of proportion to her huge backpack, Chang Sheng still grinned.
The call to board passengers on a flight from Beijing to Toronto blared again.
So Chang Sheng said: "Let's go, I won't be able to catch the plane in a while, idiot."
Avril Lavigne opened her arms: "Can I give you a hug, uncle?"
Chang Sheng hesitated for a moment, then leaned forward and hugged Avril in his arms.
"Goodbye, Avril."
"Goodbye, uncle!"

After Avril waved goodbye to Chang Sheng, she walked into the security check entrance without looking back, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Chang Sheng watched her leave, then turned and walked in another direction.
When he turned around, he didn't see it. Among the crowd behind the security checkpoint, a girl with strange hair color was standing quietly against the flow of people, looking at his back.
Tourists and passengers kept passing by her, because of the crowds, they couldn't avoid her completely, they could only look at the girl blocking the way here with disgust.
Someone kept knocking her on the shoulder.
She also seemed to have never heard of it, just watched until the figure completely disappeared in the crowd and could not be found anywhere.
Then she turned and left gracefully. This time, I really didn't look back, and walked all the way to the end of the passage.

Chang Sheng really didn't expect that he would meet Avril Lavigne and spend a two-week vacation together.
It's almost like the delusions of some ardent Avril Lavigne fan.
But it really happened to him.
He wasn't a fan of Avril Lavigne in his previous life...
This fate is too amazing.
But because of this reason, he is very interested in Avril now, and he thinks he will pay more attention to her in the future. And find her song to listen to.
Because she is such an interesting girl!

Chang Sheng boarded the plane two hours later than Avril Lavigne.
His flight was bound for Sao Paulo, Brazil.
That is his final destination.
The team he is going to is famous - Corinthians.
Corinthians, nicknamed "Torpedo Boat", is a strong team in Sao Paulo and a traditional giant in Brazil. In Brazil, they are the team with the second largest number of fans, second only to giants Flamengo.
Corinthians, Sao Paulo, Palmeiras, and Santos are also known as the "Four Giants of Sao Paulo".
As of 2000, they have won 23 São Paulo state championships, three Brazilian football national championships, and one Brazilian Cup championship.
So many champions are enough to show their glory.
As a domestic powerhouse in Brazil, there are many stars in the Corinthians team. There was the goalkeeper Dida (da) who was good at penalty kicks who reached his peak in Milan in the future, there was also Freddy Rincon (freddy_n), the main midfielder of the Colombian national team, and Wan Wan, the main midfielder of the Brazilian national team at that time. Peta (vampeta), Brazil international, notoriously short-tempered striker Edín (edín).
But Chang Sheng is not here to seduce these people.
Some of these people he despised, and some would definitely not come to a small team like Getafe.
His goal is an unknown young man named Marcos Antonio Senna da Silva.
If you think this name is too long to remember, you can call him "Senna" alone.

Brazil's football level is universally recognized. In the 1994 and 1998 World Cups, they reached the finals and won a championship and a runner-up.
Many outstanding Brazilian players are active in European leagues and have become Brazil's huge overseas army. Almost every Brazilian national team is supported by these people.
Many people tend to ignore Brazil's own domestic league.
Some people even doubt whether there is a unified professional league in Brazil.
In fact, Brazilian football was professionalized very early. It became professionalized in 1933. Brazil, however, has long lacked an agreed national competition.
Brazil has too many football teams... As a football kingdom, every Brazilian can play football. So it is normal that there are many football teams. But too much will inevitably lead to chaos and difficult management.
Before 1971, in Brazil, each state had been playing by itself, doing its own thing.
Take São Paulo State as an example. The league size of São Paulo State has surpassed the future Chinese Super League, which is now A. But there are 20 teams in the State League One, among which strong teams such as Lin-Santos, Sao Paulo, Corinthians, Palmeiras, International Team... In addition to the League One, Sao Paulo's a2 and There are also twenty teams in the a3 league, and forty-four teams in the fourth level league. There are as many as 88 teams participating in the Sao Paulo under-twenty youth team competition.
Just one state league is huge. It can be seen how developed Brazilian football is.
But not every state can develop its own league. Some states do not have their own state leagues. Because the place is small and economically underdeveloped.
It was not until 1971 that the first national competition was established by the Brazilian Football Association.
However, there were too many teams at that time, and the organization and management of the event was very chaotic-at most, more than one hundred teams participated. Later, Havelange organized the national teams together and adopted the NBA-style pyramid competition system, divided into preseason and playoffs.
It will not be until 2004 that the Brazilian Football Association will abolish this competition system. In line with international standards, a double round-robin points system for home and away games will be adopted. Only then will there be official Brazilian League One and Brazilian Second League.
In 1999, because of a scandal, the Brazilian Football Association was involved in a lawsuit and was ruled not to hold the Brazilian domestic league temporarily. Therefore, thirteen of the most famous clubs in Brazil joined forces to launch a new event, which was named "Havelange Cup".
In 2000, there were 116 teams participating in the Havelange Cup, and 16 teams could enter the final playoffs.
Corinthians is now participating in the "Havelange Cup".
The domestic game in Brazil is not the same as the European game. It's not New Year's Eve. The "Havelange Cup" starts in April, and Chang Sheng can go there just in time to watch the Corinthians' game.
But he didn't know if Cena would have a chance to play.
Even many fans may not know these things.
But because Chang Sheng likes to play FM, he is also very interested in those small leagues. It's just been researched.

After Chang Sheng flew to Sao Paulo, he took a short break and went straight to the Corinthians Club.
In his memory, before 2001, the main midfielder of the Spanish national team played here.
I hope history will not be biased.
Historically, Senna was going to make his debut in the Rio Branco team, and he never played an official game. A year later, he transferred to the American SP team and only played four games. Another year later, he came to the powerful team Corinthians, but he did not gain a firm foothold in this team. He only played 16 games in two seasons, failed to score a goal, and was sold to Juventus Team Tudor. He also failed to prove himself in the Juventus team. He played twelve times and only scored one goal. This goal was the first goal of his career.
Then in 2002 he moved to the San Caetano team in the same state of Sao Paulo. Fourteen appearances and one goal.
Then, towards the end of 2002, he decided to play in Europe, moving from San Caetano to Villarreal. He then made his mark at Villarreal.
That's a long time later story.
What Changsheng has to do now is to change this history.
In his 433 meat grinder, the tasks of the three defensive midfielders are heavy and important.
At present, there are only three midfielders that he can use. As long as anyone is injured, this formation and the tactics attached to it will be finished.
So he must find more midfielders to fill the lack of team strength.
Senna is an excellent midfielder. Although Chang Sheng has no idea of his current strength, Chang Sheng knows how successful he will be in the future. This is a player with potential, although the 24-year-old Senna is "too old" for the definition of "Mavericks".
But Chang Sheng, I believe that even if Senna's gold changes places and changes the trajectory of fate, it will still shine.
Instead of making Villarreal cheaper two years later, it is better to keep it for your own use.
