Godfather Of Champions

When Wang Huasheng sent the manuscript to the domestic news agency, he divided an interview into two parts.

One is very brief, about the news that Nottingham Forest is really interesting to Sun Jihai, and the other reorganizes the conversation between Dun En and them as an exclusive interview, of course, adding some of Wang Huasheng's own materials. Said to introduce to Chinese readers this British head coach who knows China very well.

Tang Jing saw him concoct this exclusive interview over there, but said nothing.

She had heard of something like this: a Chinese reporter went to Spain to take a photo with a star, and came back to compile an exclusive interview, and then sent it back to China with this photo, and it was published successfully.

In comparison, Uncle Wang's behavior is quite convergent.

No one knows what kind of repercussions this report will have in China, but Wang Huasheng can be sure that this time the sales of newspapers will definitely increase greatly. A British coach who has a lot of connections with China, this time has a relationship with Chinese players, no matter how you look at it, it is a gimmick worth continuing to follow up with the hype.

He bet this time. Just like when Li Xiang followed Milu right, he immediately became the most valuable journalist, and his influence and money came in.

Regardless of the fact that Tang En was going to make waves in China because of that fictitious "interview", he sent away two Chinese reporters the next day, he almost forgot about it.

Pierce replied, but this time his answer made Dunn difficult-Pierce agreed to loan Richards to the Forest team.

The trouble for Dunn was that after a few days of careful consideration, he didn't want Richards anymore.

The forest team’s defense is generally young: 18-year-old Pique, 26-year-old Zimbanda, 26-year-old Matthew Epson, 20-year-old Layton Barnes, 22-year-old Pepe...

If there is a younger Richards, Dunn feels that it will be a little bad for the back line that needs experience and stability the most.

So there was silence on the phone for a while, Dunn still wanted Pierce to suggest that the Forest team is very interested in Sun Jihai and hoped that Manchester City could seriously consider the transfer of Sun Jihai.

"This makes me very embarrassed..."

Hearing Pierce's words, Dunn was overjoyed, he knew it was a drama. At the very least, Pierce did not refuse, which means that he also considered Sun Jihai's departure. He decided that he was very hot for the iron: "Lending Richards on loan to us is to train him and accumulate experience. To keep him in Manchester City and give him the main position is to train him and accumulate experience. The result is the same, I think you It might be more beneficial for Richards to stay with him."

"Tony, this is not like your speaking style."

Dunn laughed: "I have considered it seriously. I think Sun Jihai is more suitable for the Forest team. Help, Pierce. You also know that according to Richards's growth rate, he will be able to complete it in the next two or three years. Replacing Sun Jihai, the position of Sun Jihai in Manchester City will become quite embarrassing by then. And the Forest team just needs him now, you can use Richards to play the main force, give him trust, that kid will definitely give you a generous return. Maybe The best young player of the new season is him!"

"The future is not clear."

"This is a good thing for a win-win situation, Pierce... Don't worry, the Forest team won't let Manchester City suffer on the transfer fee."

There was a long silence on the other end of the phone, until Dunn thought that Pierce was no longer there. Finally, the Manchester City coach said: "Well, the specific transfer fee will be faxed to you. If you can accept the price, you can talk to Sun's agent..."

"Ha! Thank you so much, Pierce!"

"If you really want to thank you, lead the team to play well in the UEFA Champions League! The Forest has only participated in the Champions League three times and won two championship trophies. I don’t want to see 2:7 again when I go back after so many years. Lost to a game like Bayern Munich..."

Dunn knew that Pierce was talking about the 95-96 season. Nottingham Forest returned to Europe after a lapse of eleven years and broke into the UEFA Cup quarterfinals. In the end, he was humiliated by the Bundesliga overlord Bayern Munich 7-2. Perhaps in the eyes of others, Nottingham Forest, which has returned to the European arena after so many years, has performed well enough, but in the minds of those Forest team players, they lost so badly and have no strength to fight back. Bayern, the Bundesliga king, is still a shame in their lives.

As soon as Brian Clough left, the soul of Nottingham Forest was gone.

"Relax, Pierce. Nottingham Forest is a stone in the toilet."

"What do you mean?" Stuart didn't quite understand this Chinese allegorical saying.

"Smelly and hard. If those continental European teams think the Forest is good for bullying, they have to be careful of their teeth."

Pierce froze for a moment, and then he laughed.

"What a smelly stone!"

The next day, the Manchester City Club sent a fax to the Nottingham Forest Club, indicating the price that the Manchester City team can accept on the issue of Sun Jihai’s transfer fee-£4 million.

The Manchester City team bought Sun Jihai from Dalian Shide for two million pounds, setting the highest value for a Chinese player to transfer to a foreign club. But now, it is clear that as long as Tony Dunn nodded, Sun Jihai will once again create the highest record of Chinese players' worth.

Dunn scolded Stuart Pierce for being black, and nodded and agreed to the price.

For 4 million pounds, Nottingham Forest officially buys Manchester City’s right back and Sun Jihai in the backcourt.

The official confirmation of this matter caused a sensation in China. Those Chinese media knew as well as Dunn what this value means. No Chinese player has ever been able to achieve such a high value, and this number has allowed Sun Jihai to rank among the mainstream players in the Premier League.

Before, the Chinese always had such an idea that Chinese players were always marginalized. Even if it is Sun Jihai, when Manchester City can be the main force, the Chinese have no sense of security towards him. If the domestic media publicizes Chinese players' prowess overseas, many people will immediately exaggerate and deceive themselves...

When the news was just announced on the Chinese Internet, many netizens responded with questions. Of course, these questions will eventually lead to a result ---regional quarrels and abuse. The characteristics of the world are not only Chinese. Just as the northerners in Britain think that southerners are fools, southerners think that northerners are hillbillies and uncivilized monkeys.

Later, many big portals and newspapers published the news one after another, and there were screenshots of the official websites of the clubs of both sides. This was regarded as the disappearance of doubts from Chinese netizens and fans.

It is indeed possible for Sun Jihai to join a team that wants to participate in the European Champions Cup!

Substitute or main force? After an issue was debated on the domestic Internet, a new round of debate began.

Tang En didn’t care about this. If nothing happened, he would also go to the domestic website to repost, but he never read netizens’ comments...

Will Sun Jihai accept the invitation of the Forest Team?

This seems to be a very simple question, and it is a little artificial. A team that can only play in the domestic league or a team that can participate in the European Champions Cup, which one to choose? Isn't this obvious?

But Sun Jihai hesitated.

He likes Manchester City and life in Manchester. He stayed here for five years and has a very deep relationship with the fans here. Perhaps in today's football, there are fewer and fewer people who believe in the feelings of players for a team and fans, because in the face of money, there is no trust in the commitment system. But Sun Jihai is such a person.

Chinese traditional thinking is deeply rooted. There is an old saying: Golden kennels and silver kennels are not as good as their own dog kennels. This is almost the same when applied to the club.

What if Nottingham Forest can participate in the European Champions Cup? Sun Jihai likes Manchester City. He bought a house in Manchester, where his wife and children live. This is his home. The Chinese emphasize their families.

In addition, he has another reason for hesitation-he doesn't know the attitude of coach Dunn towards him. Many domestic media have analyzed that the Forest team just wants to buy a substitute player. Why does Dunn emphasize Sun Jihai's "all-around"? Don't you just want to find a substitute for Zimbanda, Leighton Barnes...and others? If you transfer to the Forest team but are not taken seriously, and abandon the Manchester City fans, then you feel like an out-and-out fool.

Dunn decided to call Sun Jihai himself and give him a reassurance.

When the call was connected, Sun Jihai habitually greeted him in English, and Tang En came up to him and gave him a fluent Chinese sentence, which suppressed him!

"Stop English, I can understand Chinese when speaking." He also learned a little Dongbei accent.

After Sun Jihai understood who was calling him, it was hard not to laugh. "Your Northeast dialect is not quite standard, Mr. Tang En." He also joked.

"Hey, I will ask you to learn slowly in the future, not afraid of substandard learning. Know why I call you?"

Sun Jihai nodded: "Yeah."

"Why are you hesitating? Worried that you will not have a position in the forest team? Do you believe what the Chinese media say? Four million to buy a substitute that occasionally plays?! I'm crazy to me!"

Dunn is clear about that. Some domestic media analyzed for a long time that Nottingham Forest bought Sun Jihai just to increase the thickness of the bench. The analysis is well organized and has the effect of confusing readers.

But Dunn just wanted to curse after reading the whole article. As he said to Sun Jihai: 4 million pounds to buy a substitute, the forest team is not burning money like that.

"Forest is fighting on multiple lines this season. There is no difference between the main substitutes in the team. Whoever is in good condition, who is good, I will start whoever is in good condition. If the physical fitness is not good, I will take a rest if the condition is not good. Those media have come out ABCDEFG."

Sun Jihai's hands were shaking while holding the phone, he was suffocating a smile, but in the end he didn't hold it.

"Mr. Dunn, you should be the most humorous head coach I have ever seen."

"Actually, I'm very easy to get along with." Tang En walked along, "You know when you come."

Sun Jihai was silent for a while.

"Sun." To tell the truth, it was a bit awkward for Tang En to call Sun Jihai that way. He really wanted to call - "Jihai", but he felt that it was too contrived when he first met. "What is the purpose of being a professional player? Make money? There will always be a day when you retire? There will always be times when you can't make any more money, right? When you decide to wash your hands and quit, you should always leave yourself something different, right? I said To be honest, you are the same with Manchester City, and you will continue to do this now and then. Manchester City is a team with no ambitions, but I do, Nottingham Forest does. I believe you can see from the transfer market in the past two years. Yes. I bought you from Manchester City, one is not to spend four million to buy a substitute, sitting on the bench as a spectator; second, not to open up some Asian market, Chinese market. I just like your ability, very good for the team Help. I say so, what are you still hesitating?"

There was another silence. Dunn didn't say anything anymore. He had said everything that should be said, so what else could he say? If Sun Jihai still doesn't come, he will be fine. Secretly complained a few words, and then cheeky went to ask Pierce to rent Richards again.

But he didn't believe that Sun Jihai could still refuse the invitation from him. No matter from which aspect, a transfer to Nottingham Forest is harmless for players like Sun Jihai. The treatment is higher than that of Manchester City. Honor, the Forest team has the ambition and goal to fight for honor. Fame, four million high-profile joining the UEFA Champions League participating teams won more than just an increase in value.

Tang En quietly waited for Sun Jihai to reply to him. Soon, he got the answer he wanted.

"I did it, Mr. Dunn. I came to the forest."

※※※

Sun Jihai was dealt with by Dunn in this way. The agent had no problem for a long time. The only obstacle to the transfer was the player's personal wishes. Everything is ready now. The Forest Team and Sun Jihai’s agent quickly negotiated a personal contract and completed the contract as quickly as possible.

One day later, Sun Jihai and his agent appeared at the Nottingham Forest City Stadium, holding a red Forest team jersey to meet with fans, the media and the Nottingham Chinese Students League. Standing beside Dunn and Evan Daggerty, he smiled shyly.

When he entered the stadium from the press conference, he looked up and saw the banners unfolded by the fans in the stands: "Chinese Sun, welcome to the forest!"

Dunn also noticed this banner. The banner was not made by the Chinese Students League. The people holding this banner are pure British fans. Dunn can easily find John the Fat and Bill the Thin. It must be their idea.

When the camera flashes in the reporters' hands were frequently turned on, Tang En turned his head and said to Sun Jihai, who was staring at the banner, "Look, only when there is sunlight can the forest undergo photosynthesis. With photosynthesis, the forest can be more lush."

Maybe Sun Jihai doesn’t know what kind of brilliant achievements he will have in his career after coming to the Forest, but one thing is certain, here will be very different from Manchester City, his career is a little bit different. thing.

Hearing Dun En's words, Sun Jihai smiled as bright as the sun.

Remarks: Regarding a friend's reaction to seeing Chinese football, I feel nauseous, and seeing everything related to Chinese football feel sick. I must solemnly apologize here.

As a Chinese man who came to the UK from China, Dunn, wanting to make his career have nothing to do with China is basically impossible, whether it is Yang Yan in the early stage, or a British coach who “speaks fluent Chinese. "Or the current Chinese player Sun Jihai's transfer to the Forest team, this is an inevitable result.

Perhaps in terms of Chinese football and all the food related to Chinese football, I am different from these friends. Of course I also scolded the Chinese Football Association, the Chinese men's football team, which was unsuccessful. But I don't think that Chinese football is useless. Chinese football fans also belong to the category of Chinese football. Are Chinese football fans also rubbish? In the same way, Sun Jihai, as a Chinese player who has been in foreign countries for a long time, has not actually been contaminated with too many bad habits of Chinese football, but has the unique qualities of Chinese people. From an objective point of view, I think he is very in line with Dunn's requirements and the requirements of the Forest team. From the perspective of the box office of the novel, I think it is also very pleasing to include a Chinese player who has a good reputation among Chinese fans in the novel.

In Dunn's future coaching career, he will have more contacts with China. Of course, I know how to master this degree and how to make everyone enjoy it. I will definitely not do things that go against everyone's aesthetics. For example, let Dunn become the head coach of the Chinese national team, then save Chinese football and get the World Cup. This kind of thing is absolutely impossible in this book.

Thank you again for your support!

In addition, the debate about Anelka can also be stopped. Thanks to friends who recommended Torres, Irving, Villa, Vieri and other players. I know you like these stars, but the Forest team can't afford the wages required by those superstars, nor can they afford transfer fees totaling more than 80 million pounds. So, if you feel uncomfortable, go and scold Alan for not making money!
