Reborn on Top of Football

Vol 8 Chapter 34: Change Dragon (4)

On the evening of September 3, the cheers of the Chengdu Sports Center were louder and louder.

A few days ago, he participated in the World Championships in BJ and won two gold medals, broke the Asian record, was the first to run in 9.7 seconds, and beat Bolt face to face Wang Ailai... This is the news that has caused a sensation in CD City for a week.

Although Tang Yaodong, the head coach of the national team, made it clear before the game that Wang Ai may not play due to physical fatigue, the fans in Chengdu still sold out the tickets. , Didn't make a fuss?

This is true love!

Finally, in the 27th minute of the second half, with the Chinese team leading 2:0 and controlling the whole game, Wang Ai replaced the excellent Yu Dabao. The moment he got up, there was an uproar in the stands, and the loud noise startled Wang Ai.

And his frightened action made the fans laugh endlessly.

After playing, Wang Ai played steadily for more than ten minutes, gradually integrated into the mixed lineup of old and new, and hit a shot from 40 meters away from the goal in a counterattack, which can be regarded as a response to the enthusiasm of young and old in Chengdu.

In the interview at the hotel after the game, Wang Ai thanked the fans in Chengdu repeatedly, and even took out the gift he received yesterday: a box of hot pot ingredients!

"I don't think it's cheap, because I don't need fans to send me expensive gifts to improve my life. On the contrary, I value this kind of local characteristics and something that can give me a deep memory. I may not have the opportunity to go to the streets of Chengdu to taste authentic Chengdu taste, but with these, whether I am in BJ or Madrid, my soul will always be in Chengdu...at least when eating hot pot, it must be."

After this interview was aired, needless to say, the reactions of CD citizens, the search volume of Wang Ai from Chengdu IP increased by a hundred times. At the same time, Zhao Xuri, who was leading the rookies to replay the game, interrupted the normal communication and pointed to the TV: "So, why are some players and others are stars? Why do some people only earn dead wages and others Just earn a lot of advertising money? Look at what our boss, the most successful football star in the world, does?"

"You have to learn to please the fans, so that they can buy your jerseys, you can have market value, and advertisers come to you. But at the same time, you can't please the fans cheaply, so that the fans will think you are not a thing, not worthy of respect , still won’t buy your jersey.”

"Some people may think, I'm enough to rely on a dead salary, why should I bother?" Zhao Xuri raised two fingers: "One, you are a professional player, you make a living in commercial events, you do it for yourself 1. It is natural, instinctive, and professional for your club to expand its fan base. Second, you are a national team player, so you should win the favor of ordinary people for the national team and for football. This is your job Part of that is your work ethic as a footballer."

"So..." Zhao Xuri became serious: "Don't think that it's dereliction of duty for him to be the captain and not do any work. The interview he just did is work; so don't think that I am two years older than him and call him the boss. I am shameless. Because what I can do, he can do, and what he can do, I can't do."

Chen Tao, who had been sitting silently in the corner of the meeting room, suddenly said, "He didn't have any luck. Everyone wanted to replace him but no one could."

Speaking of this, Chen Tao suddenly got up and left the meeting room in a daze. Zhao Xuri blinked and looked around the anxious newcomers and said with a smile: "Captain Chen is like this. By your side, and he is open, this is your luck, you can learn from him, even if you don’t understand, follow him first, I guarantee that you will gain more than you will lose.”

Wang Ai was not clear about Zhao Xuri's team building speech, and Zhao Xuri didn't tell him that Tang Zhen, who was listening to the whole process, had a big heart. But Wang Ai's personal feeling is that the newcomers respect him more, and more people take the initiative to talk to him and ask questions. Wang Ai is still wondering: Is it a goal? Or, what about the two packs of hot pot base?

However, this change still gave Wang Ai some small gains. Yu Dabao took the initiative to communicate with him about the experience and lessons of studying abroad.

It was in September 2006, when 18-year-old Yu Dabao and Yang Xu went to Portugal to receive trial training with Benfica, and then officially joined in early 2007. However, his development in the following three years was not satisfactory. He not only scored amazing performances in many hat-tricks, but also had many moments when he was in poor condition and could not find his sight. Finally, at the age of 22, he ended his overseas career and returned to China secretly.

When he said this, Wang Ai went through it in his mind. In 2006, it was the time when he changed from a super substitute of Super Deportivo to Chelsea, the new giants' rotation main force. That year's World Cup China team stopped in the quarter-finals, but his performance was as bright as the sun and the moon. He was hailed as the leader of the next generation, and at the age of 18, he became the youngest captain in the history of the national team.

Three years later, when Yu Dabao returned to China, he and the 85 National Youth Generation were finally studying ink Tai Chi Bagua Formation, aiming at the South African World Cup champion.

In the past three years, Wang Ai not only won the Golden Boot of the five major leagues for the first time, won the World Cup Golden Boot, but also won the Golden Globe Award and the World Footballer. In contrast, I didn't notice the tortuous experience of Yu Dabao, who was a junior in the 88 countries. Maybe people have heard about him, but at that time Wang Ai was pushing Tubingen youths to study abroad in the "preparatory class", and he didn't care about others at all.

When Yu Dabao looked up at Wang Ai, Wang Ai didn't notice this "star of hope" who was also the Asian junior champion.

Yu Dabao is quite open-minded: "Without you rushing forward, I don't think I can go to the World Cup, let alone win the championship with my ability. I just got here. Benfica called me a lot because of this." , I didn’t agree, haha.”

Wang Ai looked at Yu Dabao and laughed, and then drove Tang Zhen, who was in the same room with him, out to give Yu Dabao a place. Because Tang Zhen always has his own thoughts, Wang Ai’s words have a very short period of decay on him. He probably forgets half of what he said on the spot, and forgets half of it the next day. After a week, he can remember what Wang Ai said. Can't remember anything else.

Wang Ai is also helpless, and of course he is not willing to force it. It is even a good thing for Tang Zhen to have his own ideas, and he is not stupid. But in this way, it would be meaningless for him to be in the same room with Wang Ai to "listen to teachings". Wang Ai had wanted to drive him away a long time ago, but he was afraid that everyone would have an idea, so this time it was done, and it was justified.

Lao Tzu wants to discuss with Yu Dabao the issue of studying abroad!

Wang Ai has been worried that after the start of Jinyuan football, the newcomers are willing to stay at home, and it is rare that there is one who is willing to face it.
