Yi Zhe appeared in public for the first time as a Wolfsburg player.
The size of this press conference is not large. The club's press hall, which can accommodate hundreds of media, only has one row of seats. There are only a dozen media reporters. And when you glance over, you can see many Chinese reporters.
face.
Yi Zhe closed his eyes and took a deep breath, telling himself repeatedly to calm down. People here don't know their abilities, and those who don't know are not guilty.
Manager Alofs came up to comfort him: "Relax, Yi. Doesn't this scene disappoint you?"
"Honestly, a little."
"This is normal. I guess your dream must be to stand in a big stadium like Camp Nou and enjoy the cheers of thousands of people." Alofs laughed and said: "But if you prove yourself here, there will be no scenes like that for you.
Difference."
"I understand, sir, I am a professional player."
His rapid calming down made manager Alofs very satisfied: "Yi, you are a very professional player, and you will be very good in the future."
In front of a few cameras, Yi Zhe officially signed the contract and showed off his No. 8 jersey for the new season with manager Alofs.
As a loaned player, being able to have a special joining press conference, the club naturally wants to give the media an opportunity to learn more about Yi Zhe.
After all, he is different and special.
However, the script was probably different from the one imagined by the club, and not many Wolfsburg local media came. Even though Yi Zhe is known as Barcelona's genius - in Germany, La Masia is not synonymous with great talent.
But the Chinese reporters present are different. Some even came from China after receiving special instructions. For Chinese football, which failed to compete in the World Cup three times in a row after the 2002 World Cup, it is hard to have a top player like Yizhe from the five major leagues.
The player of the team is the only one who can create positive news. Moreover, he is a genius recognized by domestic football. The reporters stared at Yi Zhe, as if he was covered with question marks.
"Yizhe, what prompted you to choose to rent Wolfsburg? We all remember that you once said that your dream is to enjoy the cheers at Camp Nou."
This person is not really caring about him, but is here to compete for breaking news. The professional quality of this reporter is really commendable - quite professional!
But Yi Zhe just smiled softly: "The past is past, you never know which will come first, tomorrow or the accident, isn't it?"
The reporters were stunned for a moment. Looking at Yi Zhe's smile, they felt that it was quite strange. Is this still the same Yi Zhe who once threatened to conquer La Masia?
"Going back to the previous question, what made you choose to join Wolfsburg?"
"This is a great team."
"You only have a one-year loan period with the club. If the club wants you to transfer permanently, what choice will you make then?"
"I don't know, just like I can't predict which will come first, tomorrow or the accident?"
"Choosing the No. 6 jersey, does it have any special meaning for you?"
"I want to be Wolfsburg's Xavi."
"Do you want to compete with De Bruyne and take his place?"
"We must rely on the team to win, but being the strongest version of ourselves is also the basic quality of professional players."
…
The entire press conference was very short, and the club did not give much time. After all, it was just for the new players to meet the media and announce it to the world. But Yi Zhe's answer was perfect.
"Yi, your performance is really surprising. I am definitely looking forward to your new season at Wolfsburg." Manager Alofs also expressed great satisfaction.
"You have already said it, sir." Yi Zhe said with a smile: "But I hope there will be no misunderstanding. Do you think I will compete with that Kevin De Bruyne for the locker room position?"
Alofs spread his hands: "That's none of my business. But Wolfsburg encourages competition. Maybe you can really be the leader of the locker room."
Yi Zhe was taken to the training ground and officially met with his teammates and coaching staff.
This was the first time he saw the first-team head coach Dieter Heijing. His appearance was exactly the same as the one simulated in the system: the old-fashioned Chinese character face, the fluffy black hair, and the eyes that were not too wide.
Revealing the keenness to examine everything.
"Easy?" he asked.
This kind of gaze makes Yi Zhe feel uncomfortable. Are you going to show off your power when we meet? Don't ask me to come if you don't want to see me!
But on the surface, he had to try to be restrained. After all, he was the head coach: "Yes, sir, I won't let you down."
Fortunately, Coach Heijin shook hands sincerely, and then led Yi Zhe to the locker room: "You are lucky, kid. The team just returned from vacation yesterday, and you can see everyone today."
"Is it so fast? The World Cup has only been over for half a month."
Yi Zhe was very surprised. He remembered that there must be a one-month holiday after the end of the season. This is a mandatory rule of FIFA. Even if it is a World Cup year, it must be postponed after the World Cup.
"We are an ambitious team!" Coach Heijing patted his chest.
Yi Zhe complained in his mind: I’m afraid there aren’t many international players at all, right?
The first team has an exclusive training ground and locker room. Soon Yi Zhe was taken to the door, opened the door and walked in with Coach Heijin.
The first thing Yi Zhe saw was the light green locker, and there were about two dozen people sitting in it chatting...the new teammates.
"Let me introduce, this is our new member for the new season, Yi from Barcelona's La Masia youth academy."
Yi Zhe introduced himself humbly, and when he mentioned that he was from China, he deliberately observed the expressions on everyone's faces.
Sure enough, everyone was surprised, and even several players stood up.
This result was not surprising to Yi Zhe. He had encountered this kind of surprised and unabashedly suspicious look when he first joined La Masia.
"Ha! Welcome to our new member of Wolfsburg! From La Masia, you must not be a weakling! I am Diego Benario, the team captain, you can call me Diego!"
Yi Zhe also smiled and stretched out his hand: "You have the same name as Maradona? Then you must be the God of Wolfsburg, haha!"
He has already learned about the captain in the system, the team's number one goalkeeper, the main goalkeeper of the Swiss national team, and his ability is quite strong.
But many people didn't take the initiative to come over and say hello. Some people smiled and asked: "Man, what position do you play?"
"Midfielder, attacking midfielder." Yi Zhe answered truthfully.
Soon there was a commotion in the locker room, and many people's eyes gathered in one place.
"Ha! Are you actually competing with Kevin for position?"
"I started to sympathize with him. It was really not the right decision for him to come to Wolfsburg."
"Chinese people... can also be considered good at playing football?"
"Hey! Robin, this may be really different. After all, I'm from La Masia, but to compete with Kevin... he doesn't seem very smart."
"I bet one euro that Bas (Dost) and Andre (Schürrle) will boycott this guy! Haha, unless they don't want to score goals in the future!"
What's more, he looked directly at Kevin De Bruyne and shouted: "Kevin, your competitor is here!"
Kevin De Bruyne shrugged: "I do need a qualified substitute, so I won't mind it and hope our new guy can do the job."
"Hey! Kevin, based on your performance last season, do you want him to sit on the bench for a season?"
"Don't say that, maybe she's a cheerleader!"
Yi Zhe looked at the expressions on the faces of these new teammates and instinctively felt a little unhappy.
He is new here and can only communicate in English because he doesn't know German for the time being, but he is not stupid.
It seems that Kevin De Bruyne is quite well-established! Everyone doesn’t like his appearance... This chapter has been completed!
