Chapter 74: Everything you need for having fun

As a sports reporter, Zhong Dajun was also a member of the "Searching for Hero_Chen" group. He even joined a QQ group, where people exchanged information collected from different sources every day. This group, which brought together the power of netizens from all over the country, only knew that Chen Yingxiong was Chinese and joined the Zenit Saint Petersburg youth team at the end of July 2006. After more than two weeks, he was transferred to the first team, and after more than two weeks, he started in the first team.

That was all.

In fact, it was not their fault that they were incompetent, but the fault of the Russian media for not knowing more about Chen Yingxiong's background.

Previously, some St. Petersburg media excitedly went to the Czech Republic to find Petzera, wanting to hear him talk about how he discovered Chen Yingxiong.

As a result, the old Czech man looked confused and knew nothing about the person mentioned by the reporter.

Then the clue was broken - no one expected that the person who made the decision to sign Chen Yingxiong was assistant coach Vladimir Borovikia, not head coach Petzela.

Zhong Dajun posted the clues and information he got from the QQ group on the Shuxi Metropolitan Daily where he worked, and the sports section made a special feature called "Looking for Hero_Chen." He persuaded the editor-in-chief to do this.

He knew very well what it would mean if such an amazing player really emerged in today's Chinese football. Whoever could find this legendary "Hero_Chen" first would have the upper hand.

Shuxi Metropolis Daily was the second most influential newspaper in Chengdu. It was strongly suppressed by its arch-rival, Jinguan Express, and its sales had never been able to match that of the other.

If the topic of "Looking for Hero_Chen" could be successful, the sales volume might even be able to suppress Jinguan Kuaibao. This was a good opportunity to turn things around!

It was with this in mind that the editor finally approved this feature, hoping that it would have a positive effect on the sales of the newspaper.

But the information he had was still too little. It was especially lacking some gimmicky elements and details. What was the point of just listing that Chen Yingxiong scored ten goals in eleven rounds of the Russian Premier League? How many people could understand that this number was awesome? No, readers needed stories! Detailed and dramatic stories! Without these, who would read? Why was social news attractive? Wasn't it because it was weird and interesting?

Therefore, the response to this special issue was mediocre.

Zhong Dajun naturally also suffered tremendous pressure.

He had already searched all the clues he could find on the Internet, but what about in reality? The newspaper couldn't afford to let him fly to Russia, and besides, the Russian league had already ended, so he wouldn't be able to find anyone there.

What should he do now?

He didn't know either.

He decided to find a place to relax, as he couldn't work if he was under too much pressure.

…

Chen Yingxiong's life after returning to China was very dull, after all, he wasn't well-known in China. No one knew that he was the air tyrant who frightened the defenders in the Russian League, so no media or any organization came to disturb him, and he could enjoy this kind of vacation with peace of mind.

He spent the first two days at home with his parents. Yesenin, as the agent, was introduced to his parents and Dracula stayed in his house temporarily.

Two days later, Chen Yingxiong was eager to play again. He planned to go out for some fun. Dracula had never been to Sichuan, so he had to take him to some scenic spots. So the two of them went to Dujiangyan, Qingcheng Mountain, Emei Mountain, and Leshan. But there was nothing to see because it was winter, the dry season, the grass and trees were withered, and the colors were monotonous and gray. Therefore, these scenic spots near the mountains and rivers did not look as beautiful as the legends said.

Chen Yingxiong thought it was boring to play like this. If he hadn't thought that Dracula was a foreigner and had never seen anything like it, he would never have gone to those places.

Where did he like to go?

Of course, it was the entertainment venues in Chengdu!

Bar! Nightclub! KTV!

On the fifteenth night in Chengdu, Chen Yingxiong took Dracula to the bar.

He hadn't been to a bar in Chengdu for a long time, ever since he was fired from the team. He stayed in his small room all day, addicted to World of Warcraft, and almost cut off all social activities. He also stopped communicating with his old friends.

During that time, he really felt "abandoned by everyone."

Now when Chen Yingxiong stood at the door of the Heat Bar again, he thought of his own poverty. At that time, he never dared to think that he would be able to earn 40,000 euros a week. This was a place he and the group of people in the youth team often came to. The consumption was not too high, and it was a place that the youth team players at that time could afford to play. And the most important thing was that you could often meet beautiful women.

Because he was so familiar with the place, he brought Dracula straight here.

If he hadn't beaten that son of a bitch, but continued to play in the club's youth team and then successfully promoted to the first team, what would he be like? Being a grandson in the first team? Just one thing Chen Yingxiong knew very well, he would never make as much money as he does now.

In this case, maybe he should thank the guy who had stabbed him in the first place, because if it weren't for him, how would he have had the opportunity to go to Russia?

"Is this bar special?" Dracula looked up at the neon sign above the bar's door. It was very ordinary and simple, just a sign that can be seen everywhere.

Chen Yingxiong lowered his head and shook his head. "No, I just thought of something. Let's go in…"

Just as they were about to go in, they suddenly heard a laugh from behind them. "Look who this is? Hey… isn't this Chen Yingxiong?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Chen Yingxiong turned around and saw a white BMW 520 parked right beside him.

A man leaned out from the passenger seat of the car and smiled at Chen Yingxiong, but this smile didn't look like the kind of friendly smile of meeting an old friend. This man was none other than the unlucky guy who had tried to sabotage Chen Yingxiong during training but failed, and ended up being beaten into the hospital by Chen Yingxiong - Meng Ran.

"Hey, long time no see, Yingxiong. Where have you been lately? I heard it's hard to find a job nowadays..." He looked Chen Yingxiong up and down, with an expression of sudden enlightenment.

Then he got out of the car, and the other people in the car also got out one after another. There were two women and one man sitting in the back seat. A man got out of the driver's seat.

Chen Yingxiong knew all the three men present, except the one who got off the driver's seat. They were his former teammates in the youth team. Judging from their boastful expressions, they must have been promoted to the first team. Given the current situation of Chinese professional football, being promoted to the first team was indeed something worth boasting about. But unfortunately, Chen Yingxiong no longer cared about this.

Meng Ran walked up to Chen Yingxiong with a playful smile, and then said respectfully to the man who got out of the driver's seat. "Hey, Brother Wang, this is the Chen Yingxiong I told you about before. We were on the same team before." He turned to Hero. "Are you the valet?"

Of course, he knew that Chen Yingxiong was fired from the team. What else could a semi-professional athlete who was fired from the club do? They couldn't do anything except play football. Meng Ran knew this very well. So looking at Chen Yingxiong at the door of the bar now, he thought he was the parking attendant.

Then he boasted to Chen Yingxiong. "Wang Yongjun, from the national team! We all call him Brother Wang, he is generous and magnanimous, and he is the absolute core of the first-line team! If you want Brother Wang's autograph, come to me, haha!"

Chen Yingxiong curled his lips and said nothing. He had never seen this person when he was in the youth team, but he had heard of him. Meng Ran was right. The person was selected for the national team several times, but… he was an absolute marginal figure in the national team who could not play in the games. He was the king of the club, but he was said to be like a grandson in front of Sun Jihai and others.

Wang Yongjun was quite pleased with Meng Ran's flattery and nodded arrogantly.

He frowned when he found that Chen Yingxiong showed no respect or admiration. But why would he argue with someone who had already been fired? He handed the car keys to Chen Yingxiong. "Please help me park." He said it as a matter of course, condescendingly and arrogantly.

Meng Ran stepped forward and patted Chen Yingxiong on the shoulder affectionately. "I know it's hard to find a job nowadays, work hard! Haha!"

The skinny teammate who was on the youth team with Chen Yingxiong laughed out loud. They still remembered the scene when Chen Yingxiong was kicked out of the youth team with his tail between his legs.

The two women who were dressed up in glamorous clothes and heavy makeup, whose pungent perfume could be smelled from a long distance away, were laughing so hard that their bodies shook violently, they were causing a small amount of winter spirit with their makeup as they shook.

Dracula, who was standing nearby, could see that these guys were not Chen Yingxiong's good friends, but just happened to meet him and came to humiliate Chen Yingxiong. He was a little worried, not for Chen Yingxiong, but for these guys in front of him. What if Chen Yingxiong got angry?

Who would have thought that in the face of such humiliation and ridicule, Chen Yingxiong took the car keys without changing his expression, without any intention of resisting. This made Dracula very strange.

Seeing Chen Yingxiong taking the car keys, Meng Ran's smug smile became even more pronounced. He then stretched out his arm to hug the seductive woman with heavy makeup beside him, made a gesture of invitation, and invited Wang Yongjun to go into the bar.

Just as he turned around to greet that teammate, he saw Chen Yingxiong take the key but did not walk towards the BMW. Instead, he walked straight to the side of the road, and then… bent down and grabbed the stone isolation piles with both hands!

"Hero!" Dracula was shocked. He had already guessed what this guy was going to do!

But Chen Yingxiong did not give him the chance to stop himself. He clenched his teeth, contracted his arm muscles suddenly, exerted strength on his legs and waist, and with a muffled groan, he picked up the stone pile!

Whether it was Meng Ran, his teammates, or Wang Yongjun, none of the three made any moves in the face of such a strange and shocking scene. Their minds were completely blank - this was too much beyond their understanding. They stared in amazement as Chen Yingxiong walked towards the beautiful BMW car step by step with the stone in his arms, and then the two female companions beside him began to scream uncontrollably.

Amid their screams, Chen Yingxiong threw the stone stake towards the hood of the BMW.

"Bang!!"

With a loud bang, under the impact of the stone pile, the BMW sank forward, its rear end jumped up, and its hood was completely deformed. It looked like it had suffered a collision with another car. The BMW's alarm began to sound non-stop.

The sharp and piercing alarms and the panicked cries of the women intertwined together and immediately attracted the attention of countless people around.

Chen Yingxiong clapped his hands, turned around and walked to the three former teammates, and handed the key to Wang Yongjun. "I'm not the parking guy, thank you."

Wang Yongjun watched helplessly as his beloved car turned into a pile of scrap metal in front of him, and he hadn't reacted yet. But Meng Ran, who was beside him, was anxious to protect his master, clenched his fists and was ready to teach the bastard in front of him a lesson!

"Hey, how many months do you want to stay in the hospital this time, Meng Ran?" Chen Yingxiong sneered when he saw him clench his fists. Facing his former teammates in the domestic club, Chen Yingxiong now felt particularly superior. Standing at 1.92 meters tall, he looked down at these people as if he were looking down at ants under his feet.

Meng Ran suddenly remembered that he had been beaten by the furious Chen Yingxiong and had to stay in the hospital for a month.

"Chen Goubi! Don't go too far! There are three of us!" Meng Ran didn't dare to take action, but his thin teammate next to him spoke up.

"Chen the Bear" was the nickname his teammates gave him privately. They never dared to call him that in front of Chen Yingxiong because it would anger him. But now it was different.

After hearing this, Chen Yingxiong turned around and stared at the person who was speaking. "Get out of the way, you idiot! I can beat ten people like you with one hand."

When the people around saw that there was something interesting to watch, they quickly gathered around. The Chinese people's love of voyeurism was fully demonstrated.

A BMW car parked on the roadside was smashed, and a group of handsome men and beautiful women were about to fight. If such a thing was not worth watching, then what else was worth watching!

Zhong Dajun was among the crowd of onlookers.
