As Christmas approaches, the Royal Stadium is already filled with a strong Christmas atmosphere, and merchants have also made strange moves to attract tourists. Countless local residents and foreign tourists gather here every day.

As early as three months ago, Chinatown and its partners began to make suggestions to take advantage of the Christmas opportunity to build the Royal Stadium into the most attractive festival focus in the southern suburbs of Madrid and even the entire Madrid region.

Everything is moving forward in an orderly manner. The closer we are to Christmas, the stronger the festive atmosphere, and it seems that even the air is filled with a festive smell, allowing anyone to feel the festive atmosphere before Christmas.

But all this seemed to be blocked from the walls of the Chinatown Training Center.

After the 16th round of La Liga, the rare winter break was ushered in. The team began to take their holidays. The players either took their families out for vacation, or went home to visit relatives and friends, or simply stayed at home and enjoyed this rare lazy...

But some people choose to come to the training center and practice on their own.

Perhaps because of the new arrival, the three Chinese players on the team who just came from Beijing were not very comfortable with the Christmas atmosphere. After the team was on holiday, they continued to come to the training base to practice more.

Since Beijing Chinatown will add foreign language classes a year before players go abroad, requiring players to be proficient in English and Spanish. In addition, they have come to Madrid many times to participate in competitions and training camps, and are not unfamiliar with the environment. In addition, the club specially arranged them to board in Chinese homes in the surrounding Chinatown, so there is no problem of adapting to life.

They are of the same age and have smooth communication. In addition, they have played in the past, and they have become close friends with players such as Mbappe, Dembele, Asensio and Sebalos, especially Yang Xin, who is born and raised and has the same origin.

On the training ground, Gao Ren and Yang Xin are not mentally burdened. Zhao Jun has performed well recently, scoring goals in the King's Cup and making frequent appearances in the first team. He has made great progress. The three of them seem to be here to practice more, but in fact they are more like they are having nothing to do.

On the contrary, Wang Lei was practicing free kicks alone, with one kick after another, with success and failure.

Gao Han happened to hold a meeting with merchants at the Royal Stadium to discuss Christmas promotions. He didn't know anything about business operations, and he hid out like a big head. He happened to see this scene and knew it in his heart.

Among these people, he is most optimistic about Wang Lei and Gao Ren, but unexpectedly, Wang Lei, who performed brilliantly in China, encountered setbacks in his first season after landing in Spain, and his progress was not as smooth as Zhao Jun. If there was no pressure, how could it be possible?

Wang Lei is a person with a high heart. He didn't say anything on the surface, but he must be frustrated in his heart.

Gao Han thought for a while, turned around and walked downstairs.

When they entered the training ground, Gao Ren and Zhao Jun didn't know where they played, and Wang Lei was left alone in practicing.

"What? I'm in a bad mood?" Gao Han asked with a funny look.

After all, he is a boy who is only seventeen years old. Even though Wang Lei looks mature, in fact, the four words "bad mood" are written on his face, which makes people see at a glance.

Wang Lei was startled and turned his head. When he saw that it was Gao Han, he immediately became nervous, "Gao...Mr. Gao Han..."

"Don't be nervous, our club has no rule that players are not allowed to practice more during the holidays. Just turn around and clean up the venue." Gao Han laughed.

"Well, I understand." Wang Lei nodded seriously.

Gao Han knew what was going on. There were three stones in Wang Lei's name. His mind was indeed very strong, but he was more delicate. This was undoubtedly a very good advantage for a midfielder control player. However, he often needed others to guide him, so as not to get stuck and unable to get out of it.

"Are you very dissatisfied with your recent performance?" Gao Han asked with a smile again.

"Yes." Wang Lei nodded and replied.

"I've watched every game you have recently, including the Copa del Rey and away games against Dynamo Zagreb..."

When Wang Lei heard this, he suddenly raised his head and stared at Gao Han with his eyes tightly, eager to know what Gao Han said about him.

Everyone knows that Gao Han is like a god, but he has never missed any player he likes.

So far, only one Falcao has not developed as expected, but he is mainly due to injuries.

"I think you acted very well." Gao Han did not laugh, but said seriously.

"Very good?" Wang Lei couldn't believe it. He thought Gao Han said so to encourage him?

"The data and performance on the court are just one of the reasons I evaluate a player, but not all, especially for a midfielder."

"But I..." Wang Lei still didn't believe it.

"In a few games, you exposed a lot of problems, and I believe you know it."

Wang Lei nodded heavily, he did know.

"But I think it's normal for you to expose these problems at your age, just a few months after coming to the team. Not every type of player can integrate into the team quickly. For example, Zhao Jun, he can be so active because there are players like Marginhos and Umtiti helping him."

"Of course, having excellent teammates on the sidelines will be a good thing for Zhao Jun, but if he doesn't realize this and is lost in the sound of praise around him, it will be terrible."

I don’t know how many young rookies are lost in the praises of the media and fans every year. Gao Han doesn’t want Zhao Jun to be the next one.

Chinatown will also provide corresponding strategies for this, protecting players and helping them adjust their mentality.

"Your characteristics and position on the court are different from Zhao Jun, which determines that you cannot ask for help on the court. You are the back-up midfielder, the core of the team's organization, and your existence is to help your teammates. The task is to schedule and sort out the midfielder, organize and plan the offense, and use long passes and short passes to transfer the ball."

"From an individual perspective, you must be aware of the characteristics and habits of each teammate. On the court, the moment the ball is passed, all the information about your teammates will appear clearly in your mind."

"Does he like to catch the ball under his feet? Is he good at catching the ball that runs in an open space? Does he like to catch the ball with his left foot or right foot? How fast is he sprinting, how much does the ball need to be passed to him in advance? What is his step point and pace distance? What is he going to do? How can he pass it to make it more comfortable to make it easier for the next move?"

"These are some very subtle details that no one pays attention to, but it is precisely such details that influence the success and failure of a pass, and the gains and losses of an attack. Your duty is to do your best to make every teammate receive the ball in the most comfortable situation. It's that simple."

Is it simple?

Well, it's very simple.

But it is precisely this simplest thing, and it is extremely difficult to do it well.

This is not only a test of the player's passing skills, but also a test of the player's ability to predict the game situation, player movement and spatial changes.

"If you stand in the general situation of the game, you should formulate your passing strategy based on the characteristics of your surrounding teammates and the style of the game between the enemy and us. If you have room for sprint, you should pass directly and pass long. If you pass more space, you should pass in a short pass and penetrate the foot."

"Some teammates have good defense and high return defense rate, so you can get more offensive freedom. However, some teammates basically don't return defense and even like to plug in. Then you have to be careful and always pay attention to providing protection and support for him."

"There is also the rhythm of the game and the direction of the attack..."

"In short, your position is like a head coach on the court. You have to look at the game from the perspective of the overall situation, analyze the opponent in a slim manner, and then gradually build the team's offense and defense. This requires you to observe more, think more, and accumulate more."

Wang Lei nodded uncontrollably. After hearing Gao Han's words, he really felt enlightened.

What is a master?

Gao Han is a master.

After a simple statement, he deeply pointed out the difficulties Wang Lei is currently facing and clearly pointed out the direction of development he will work hard for the next step, which made Wang Lei, who was confused, gain confidence again.

"I understand, Mr. Gao Han, thank you for your suggestions." Wang Lei said in admiration.

Gao Han smiled slightly and patted Wang Lei on the shoulder hard, "You must believe that my eyes never misjudged people, but not being self-deprecating does not mean that you are blindly arrogant. You have talent and potential in this area, but how to transform potential into strength requires your hard work and hard work."

"Football is very cruel. Geniuses like Messi have a more diligent and hardworking side than everyone. Cristiano Ronaldo is the most diligent and hardworking player I have ever seen. Behind the dazzling starlight, I don't know how many rookies with more talent than them are unfortunately eliminated."

When Gao Han said this earnestly, he pointed at Wang Lei and warned seriously: "I don't want you guys to take this path too, do you understand?"

Wang Lei kept nodding when he heard this. He knew that Gao Han had high hopes for them, and he also knew how much effort and energy Gao Han and Chinatown had put into them. Coupled with this statement today, he was really moved and decided to work hard no matter what, and never let Gao Han down.

More importantly, he really likes to play football.

After untiing his heart, Gao Han was free and had nothing to do. As soon as he thought of going back to the conference room and facing those troubled things, he felt like a big head, so it would be better to stay in the training ground and give Wang Lei's free throws and passes.

The skill of free kicks is purely practice, and the key is to practice.

Although Gao Han can't play football and his footwork is not good, he has never eaten pork and has seen pig run. There are countless free kick masters who have played under him, as well as masters like Pirlo and Cristiano Ronaldo. It's not too easy to guide Wang Lei to take the free kick.

Gao Ren, Yang Xin and Zhao Jun came back from somewhere. When he saw Gao Han pointing his hand in hand, he was willing to miss this god-given opportunity and immediately chased Gao Han for advice. Gao Han was also in a good mood, saying everything he knew and said everything, patiently guiding the four boys to solve the problems they are currently facing.

When the time was almost over, the meeting in the office building was about to end. Gao Han left the training ground with the expression of the four boys still unfulfilled.

But as soon as he left, Yang Xin behind suddenly remembered something and quickly chased out of the training ground.
