It was still the press conference hall at the Bernabeu, but the atmosphere was completely different from that of more than a month ago.
Not only were there more than a hundred media reporters from all over the world who were stationed in Madrid, but there were also many representatives from the local Real Madrid fan club, all of whom were sitting in the press conference hall.
People from Real Madrid TV were in the distance, setting up a camera and aiming it at the main podium, preparing to broadcast the press conference live globally. This was also Gao Shen's special request.
It is impossible for him to devote most of his energy to dealing with these trivial matters, so he would not have to work as a head coach.
He wants to solve these problems and strive for a relaxed public opinion environment for himself and the team.
The media reporters at the scene also felt Real Madrid's battle, and they all had some doubts and even speculations.
Some people are even excited. Is Gao Shen irritated?
It's good to be irritated!
Think about what Mourinho did after he was angered?
If Gao Shen is angered, it will be big news and will be hyped for at least a month.
It's better to say a few wrong words and do a few wrong things, then you will be a lucky star in the media field, okay?
Even when some of them were whispering below, they were expecting Gao Shen to storm in angrily later and ask for his crimes. Then they would use some words and things to stimulate him, and then completely piss him off.
.
Just when the group of media reporters below reached a "consensus", Gao Shen entered the venue accompanied by Butragueno, the head of the public relations department.
Surprisingly, he had a friendly smile on his face, two bottles of water in his hand, and water in his right hand as he greeted the media reporters and fans at the scene. He didn't look angry at all.
Pretending, you must be pretending!
This guy is famous for being able to fake it!
Give him a try later to show off his power!
Under the tacit gaze of the media reporters, Gao Shen pulled out the chair in the center of the main podium and sat down.
"Actually, I have always wanted to find an opportunity to chat with everyone. The last press conference was too formal and not my style." Gao Shen said with a smile.
Everyone in the audience, even the journalists with evil intentions, couldn't help laughing.
The whole world knows that Gao Shen is famous for being a talker.
It is said that he can sit on the stage and chat with reporters for several hours without any duplication of content. He can also make the uncrowned kings in the audience listen with gusto and enjoy themselves.
Of course, this is a legend and none of them have ever seen it.
Could it be said that this is really going to happen today?
Reporters, you look at me and I look at you, and you don’t even know what Gao Shen is doing.
The representatives of Real Madrid fans at the scene were very happy. They were eager to have close contact with Gao Shen and hear what he had to say.
Gao Shen unscrewed a bottle of water and took a small sip, giving people the feeling that he was really going to have a protracted battle.
"Where to start? Well, let's start when I took over the team."
After finishing speaking, Gao Shen briefly and comprehensively introduced what happened in the more than a month since he took over the team. Generally speaking, some reporters accompanying the team have reported on it, but he will also reveal some unknown details.
For example, before the last press conference, it turned out that Gao Shen had chatted with almost all Real Madrid players, and the chats were quite good.
Also, the training intensity after he took over the team was very intense. In two weeks, he almost exhausted all the players.
Especially when he mentioned that the physical fitness freak Cristiano Ronaldo "scolded" Pintus for persisting during the long-distance run after training, everyone laughed and found it interesting, but from the advanced "jokes", they were able to
Feel the intensity of that training.
In the end, Gao Shen was very satisfied with the team's performance in the more than a month since he took over.
"If the full score is ten points, I think I would personally give the team eight points."
Everyone's understanding is that Gao Shen is very satisfied with the results of Real Madrid's training camp.
Why eight points?
Gao Shen explained that the main reason was that two players participated in the Olympics and did not return until the team returned from the United States. As a result, many of the team's tactical ideas have not yet been confirmed.
Another point is because I am afraid that the team will be too proud.
Of course, the last sentence was a joke.
Gao Shen said that the coaching staff spent a month making very detailed preparations before the training camp. As soon as the La Liga schedule came out, they were preparing for the season plan.
"The players are working hard, but some of the working methods of my assistants and I are different from all previous coaches. It will take them some time to adapt."
"It's the same training around piles, but we will change some conditions during training, increase training intensity and pressure, and players will need to adapt again. This is a normal thing."
"My training is to hope that everyone can maintain a high degree of concentration and maintain 100% concentration in training, and then continue this concentration into the game."
"I'm very happy that all the players showed a positive side, which is very rare."
Gao Shen also spoke very openly and honestly about the recent warm-up match, and he once again explained his views on the warm-up match.
"I feel that I failed very much in this matter, and I even seriously hindered the team."
"Whether it's in Italy or England, they all know that I never pay attention to warm-up matches, so they never pay attention to my warm-up match results. In one sentence, my warm-up match results are lower than
The level team is still bad.”
"A reporter told me before that they teased me privately by saying that I have never won a warm-up match and never lost a formal match."
Gao Shen laughed, "This is a bit exaggerated, because I actually won the warm-up match and lost the official match, but I think this sentence can actually sum up my views and attitude towards the warm-up match very well."
"But I was negligent before and didn't say hello to my Spanish media friends in advance, so maybe everyone didn't know this. As a result, everyone was full of expectations for my warm-up matches. I hope that we can reach the Champions League final in every game.
That kind of all-out energy, here, I solemnly apologize to my media friends for letting you down!"
As soon as Gao Shen finished speaking, the audience fell silent.
Slap in the face!
If he had spoken directly to the media, he would still have something to say, but now that he is apologizing, it has embarrassed the media.
Because doesn’t this mean they are ignorant?
From Serie A to the Premier League, the warm-up matches have been terrible for six years. Don’t you all know?
If you knew it, then why do you still report it like this?
Many representatives of Real Madrid fans at the scene applauded, and they had long disliked the media reporters.
In fact, in addition to several more authoritative media such as Marca, AS, El Pais, and ABC, many others participated, including Catalan media.
Of course, the media in Catalonia are basically eager for Real Madrid to be finished quickly, especially Gao Shen.
"Here, actually, I have a few sincere words that I want to say to our Real Madrid fans at the scene, as well as all the Real Madrid fans who may see this video now and in the future."
Gao Shen paused for a moment, took another sip of water, and then looked directly at the camera.
"I know that everyone is full of expectations for me and Real Madrid in the new season. On behalf of the coaching staff and the players, I would like to express my sincere gratitude, but sometimes, I still hope that everyone can relax their mentality."
"Today's professional football is very fast-paced and the media information is very developed, which makes it easy for our fans to have huge psychological changes due to some small fluctuations."
"When we win a game, we feel like we are invincible; when we lose a game, we feel like we are useless and the world is ending. If some news comes out today, yesterday's perception will be reversed, and tomorrow the news will reverse it again.
Today’s conclusion…”
"Many times, we don't even check whether the news is accurate. As long as it is a rumor, as long as it is a slightly louder rumor, we will believe it and change our position."
"Many of our fans and friends will feel that this is because they are well-informed, their reactions are very sharp, and they can follow up on the team's news in a timely manner and draw their own conclusions."
"But I want to say that this is actually a very fragile and unconfident expression."
Gao Shen said these words in a very calm tone without any criticism.
"This is reflected in the usual situation. In the last game, one of our players performed very well, and they thought he was a genius. In the next game, his performance was sluggish, and he immediately turned around and thought the player was useless."
"When we are going well, we feel that we can conquer European football and even the world. But when we encounter difficulties, we worry about gains and losses and feel that there is no chance or hope for anything."
"I won't say that my assistants, I, and my players will not make any mistakes. This is impossible, because no one is omniscient and omnipotent and will make mistakes, but I never feel that once or even in a game
That mistake was the reason for the failure of the entire league, the entire season."
"Even in the end, if you lose the Champions League final, is that a failure?"
"I want to tell our Real Madrid fans that in my impression, you have always been the most knowledgeable fans in the world. This is what I am most proud and proud of as the head coach of Real Madrid. I also very much welcome everyone to continue to pay attention.
Supervise and even criticize the team."
"But I sincerely hope that we can look at the long season with a more stable and confident mentality, and say goodbye to the fragile, unconfident mentality of the weak."
"Because we are Real Madrid and we are the most successful team in the world!"
"In the past more than 100 years of history, we will also encounter setbacks, difficulties, and failures, but we will never lose confidence. We will always have a unique belief."
"We are the best team!"
"I know we haven't won a championship in several years, but you can wait until the end of the season and look back at our season."
"I can guarantee that we will win the championship this season!"
"I like pressure and challenges. I believe our team has the strength and confidence to fight for the championship. Whether it is La Liga or the Champions League, it is our goal, and we will use practical actions to strive for it."
"Finally, I set up a Flag here."
"If I can't win La Liga or the Champions League, I'll be dismissed!"
All the media reporters and fans in the audience were in an uproar.
Even Butragueño, who was sitting next to Gao Shen, was shocked and looked at Gao Shen in disbelief.
