002 Half Dead

After using his hands to cover Situ Yunbing, who had his eyes closed, felt the strong light dissipate, he lowered his arms and slowly opened his eyes, and his face was stunned.
He rented a living room that he had been renting for 10 years, as if he had just moved in, with old furniture, outdated electrical appliances, and even the New Year's windows on the windows.
He looked down at the tablet in his hand, and a passage was displayed on the screen.
"Please go to Monaco Club to take up the job, and the team management function will be turned on after the job."
Situ Yunbing felt like he was bolt from the blue!
Go to Monaco Club?
Is this still a game?
He hasn't even been to travel abroad several times, so he is going abroad?
At this time, he noticed that there were several certificates placed on the coffee table.
He picked it up and looked carefully.
Passport, French visa, Monaco work visa, Monaco club invitation letter.
Situ Yunbing was a little light. Is he really going to Monaco?
He immediately went to get the phone in his pocket. When he looked down, he realized that he was wearing a pair of jeans and a shirt. He felt that his body had become much lighter, and he was surprised to take out his phone.
How did his Android phone become Nokia?
This is the cell phone he used when he graduated from college.
He looked at the date on the phone screen, September 2, 2008.
boom!
Situ Yunbing's mind was blank. After a brief loss of consciousness, he ran into the bathroom and looked at himself with handsome facial features in the mirror with short hair. He looked incredible!
He went back ten years ago!
It turns out that the opening time choice was to go back to 2008, including himself!
Situ Yunbing roared excitedly!
Young, so cool!
After returning to the living room, he called according to the phone on the invitation letter of the Monaco Club.
He found that his English, which he had basically forgotten in 2018, seemed to be back!
Thinking about it, not long after he graduated from university, the CET-6 English certificate he obtained with his ability is still useful.
After he confirmed with the Monaco Club that he had coached the team in the past, Situ Yunbing jumped happily in the living room.
But he was stunned again in an instant!
How should he go to Monaco?
He ran into the bedroom and took out his bank card, trotted all the way away from home and went to the bank to check the balance.
At this time, he had only officially joined the company for less than half a year, and his salary was only about 2,000 yuan. He didn't know how much money he had.
After seeing his bank card balance on the bank ATM machine, Situ Yunbing breathed a sigh of relief.
The balance on the card is more than 6,000.
He remembered that after work, he saved money until the end of the year and bought a computer in January 2009!
Now the money on the card is saved to buy a computer.
If the time is delayed for three months, he might have only one new computer and is penniless.
Situ Yunbing took a bus to the airline ticketing site and asked about the ticket to Monaco. He was told that he could not go directly to Monaco because Monaco was too small and had no airport at all. He had to go to France first and then take a bus to Monaco.
Situ Yunbing didn't care about so much. After buying a plane ticket to France, Situ Yunbing found that he could not even buy the return ticket for the remaining money.
Situ Yunbing left a small amount of money to use it in China before going abroad, and the rest were exchanged for euros.
Bring two sets of changing clothes, take a bus to the airport, and fly to France.
Situ Yunbing, whose parents died since childhood, had no other relatives at home, was both nervous and expectant.
......
The Principality of Monaco is located in southwestern Europe, bordering the Mediterranean Sea in the south, and bordering France on the other three sides. The entire territory is in France and is known as China. It is a beautiful small country built on cliffs on the Mediterranean Sea.
This small principality with only 1.9 square kilometers is the second-to-last country in the world and the country with the largest population density in the world.
It can be said that you can't finish traveling to China in your lifetime, but you can finish traveling to Monaco in one day.
The scenery here is beautiful, with abundant sunshine and gentle waves. The waves hit the shore. The beaches that were washed by the waves were as clean as snow and the blue Mediterranean Sea were shining together. There is more than 300 days of sufficient sunshine a year. It was once a place that attracted countless British poets to chant for her, or a villa of the European royal family. It seemed that it could only be a place where princes, princesses, crown princesses and princesses live happily.
Today, Monaco has the world casino Monte Carlo and the picturesque bay, and is a world-renowned tourist destination.
In addition to the casino and F1 events, Monaco football has been supported by the Monaco royal family in the past half century!
The Monaco Club and the Louis II Stadium are located just south of Monaco.
There have been famous players such as Petit, Henry, Trezeguet, and Wenger has had a seven-year itch with Louis II Stadium. Eleven years ago, Tigana also led the team to glory, a Ligue 1 champion, twice reaching the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup and the European Champions League. After Tigana, the former Monaco legendary star Puel took over the coaching point and led the team to the French Ligue 1 throne in the millennium.
In the "Post-Marseille Era" in the mid-to-late 1990s, Monaco and Nantes were teams that won two league titles before the arrival of the seven-champion champion era of Lyon. Unfortunately, the team fell into an economic crisis since then. Even though Deschamps led the team to incredibly pass the UEFA Champions League and repeatedly accomplished miracles, they eventually lost in the contest with Porto led by Mourinho. The runner-up who lost the final failed to reverse the fate of Monaco in the next four years, and also determined the fate of Deschamps and Mourinho for ten years.
From a competitive perspective, Monaco's 2003/04 season was undoubtedly successful, but from an economic perspective, that season was extremely bad.
The then-Chairman Swara paid a huge bonus for their top stars, but he quickly left the company, the fiscal deficit further widened, Deschamps also left the club five months after the Champions League final, and he had a stumble with new chairman Pastor and the board of directors!
From 2004 to 2008, Pastor replaced 6 coaches. Monaco's league record has stabilized at the mid-level in the past three years, 10, 9, and 12, not far from the team's 15th worst ranking in the Ligue 1.
At this time, Monaco's state is most appropriate to describe it in four words: half dead.
Pastor resigned in the summer of 2008. Even though the new chairman Debondan had deep friendship with Prince Albert, who directly managed the Monaco club in the Monaco royal family, he also had real talents and practical work. After taking office, the Chicago financier, who was invited by Prince Albert to take office, made resolute reforms. At the beginning of his tenure, he fired the team's sports manager, former goalkeeper Etori, and general manager Keller. The former is one of the symbols of Monaco and has served the club for more than 30 years!
He also cut 40% of the players' salaries. At the same time, in order to open up the international market, the American prodigy Edu was loaned to the transfer market, and the South Korean player Park Joo-yong was introduced. Debangdan managed the Monaco club entirely in the way of managing the company.
Monaco started the new season with a bad start. Except for the 1-0 victory over Paris Saint-Germain in the first game, it seemed to bring about the miracle of "reform". It then drew 2 and lost 1 in three games, drew Nantes, draws Caen, and lost to Grenoble.
Monaco was quickly defeated to its original form!
Mediocre Brazilian coach Gomez was fired by Debondan!
During the FIFA match day in September, the club entered a temporary rest phase, while Monaco was waiting for the arrival of the new coach!
On September 5, Debangdan was working in the club, but received a call from the secretary, and a policeman wanted to see him at the door.
Debangdan, in a suit and ties, came to the club gate in confusion and saw two policemen wearing shabby Asian young man dressed in a shabby look and looked haggard.
Situ Yunbing never thought that he had just gotten off the bus in Monaco, and was stopped by the police before he could feel the sunny beach and the magnificence in the city!
In Monaco, even if the rich second generation is unkempt, it will arouse the police's suspicion and interrogation. Who makes the rich here everywhere?
Even though he took out his passport, visa, and invitation letter from the Monaco club, the police still didn't believe him and drove the police to the club to verify responsibly.
Debondan took Situ Yunbing's passport and the invitation letter sent by the club, and nodded to the two policemen with a wonderful expression.
After confirming Situ Yunbing's identity, the two policemen let go of Situ Yunbing.
Unexpectedly, Situ Yunbing let go, and then his feet became soft. Fortunately, Debangdan stepped forward and helped him, otherwise Situ Yunbing would have fallen head-on to the ground.
Situ Yunbing, who was haggard, squeezed out a smile to Debangdan and said, "Thank you, can you give me some food? I haven't eaten anything after getting off the plane."
In places like Monaco, the cheap jeans and shirts of Situ Yunbing are really not very different from beggars.
Debangdan asked in confusion: "Why don't you eat?"
Situ Yunbing wanted to cry without tears.
"My wallet was stolen on the bus! Who knew that French thieves were so rampant! My 180 euros were gone!"
