Wang Ai, who is exhausted physically and mentally, originally planned to return to China to join the national team. Assistant coach Chen Jinjiang has already made two phone calls, asking Wang Ai to return to China as soon as possible to fulfill his obligations as a national team member and cooperate with the Football Association and the coaching staff in various activities.
business activities.
But when she arrived at the airport, Constance pulled out her notebook and muttered: "A few days ago, coach Gao Hongbo, who was in the Netherlands, called to ask if you could participate in the World Youth Championship. At that time, you said that you would go after the negotiation. Now, you said again
If you want to return to China, which side are you going to?"
Wang Ai was stunned, and then he remembered Lao Gao's call from the Netherlands on the night he qualified in Shenyang. He was so busy these days that he actually forgot about it. Poor Lao Gao was still waiting for him in the Netherlands.
As a result, on June 11, Wang Ai simply forgot about the first match between the Chinese youth team and the second-ranked Turkish team in Europe and participated in Depor's Copa del Rey final!
"Why hasn't he urged me these past few days?" Wang Aichong shook his head at Zhao Dan and signaled not to board the plane yet, but to make a phone call later, as he might have to change his booking.
"Do I dare to push you?" Lao Gao replied angrily on the phone: "You are already the main player of the European Championship team, the golden boot of the European Club Championship, the main player of the national team, and the hero of qualifying. I
How dare a small youth team head coach compete with the national team for talent?"
"The resentment is overwhelming!" Wang Ai laughed at Lao Gao on the phone: "Then what do you think we should do? I'm at Heathrow Airport now. Do you think I should go back to Beijing directly as originally planned, or should I go to the Netherlands?"
Lao Gao: "...what's your dad's phone number..."
"What are you doing, looking for parents? How old am I? Do you plan to hold a parent-teacher meeting?" Wang Ai yelled while holding the phone.
Lao Gao laughed on the other end of the phone for a long time, and then said slightly tiredly: "Stop making trouble, come quickly, didn't you say you want to grow up with your friends? 84 Guo Shao, 86 Guo Shao,
Many of your children are here, waiting to call you boss."
Wang Ai sighed: "When did you take office? When did Director Yin leave?"
"Last month, Director Shen and I completed the handover in Tübingen and joined the team directly. After working with Director Yin for half a month, all relationships were straightened out." When Lao Gao said this, he paused.
Dun: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't come. After all, this is a national youth team composed of a mixture of two world junior championship teams. But the results of the 86 National Youth Team that you and Mai coached last time were so good, it puts so much pressure on me.
It's huge. I remember you and I talked about it during the Olympic Games last year. The 85 National Youth Team is the team for the Beijing Olympics. It's a big deal. It can't be overstated. You led the team to third place in Athens, and a few years later in
Beijing, you have to come again for the third time. But if you don’t come, everyone is a little flustered. This group of team members has been in China in the past few years. To be honest, the progress has slowed down a lot, and I don’t have much confidence. I know you
I just played a game in Shenyang and then went to Spain to play a game, which is quite tiring. I don’t expect you to play now, but whether you come or not is two different things.”
Speaking of this, Lao Gao sighed: "I just had no experience at the beginning, so I made you the boss in the junior college. As promised, you showed your initiative and helped me deal with a lot of troubles. To put it bluntly, your prestige
Second only to me, if you don't come, my management team will be missing a whip. If I can't hit the first shot when I take office, no one will listen to my words in the future."
"Isn't that right?" Wang Ai said doubtfully: "The young master of 86 was coached by Liu, so it's normal not to listen to you, but the young master of 84 was brought out by you, how dare he disobey you? Chen Tao or Zhao Xuri? Which one of them has the right
This courage? Oh, no! I remember they said good things about you many times in the group...Are you so exaggerated?"
Lao Gao, who finally had a hard time playing with his feelings, was quickly exposed by Wang Ai, and said angrily: "Stop talking nonsense and come here quickly!"
Wang Aiba pouted, looked down at the hung up phone, raised his head and bared his teeth at Zhao Dan: "Come on, I won't go to Beijing now, I'll go to the Netherlands."
Zhao Dan went to refund the ticket and buy a new one as expected. Wang Ai called Chen Jingang again to ask for leave. Over there, Director Chen also smiled bitterly. Many sponsors named Wang Ai to attend the event. How could this be done? Originally
It was agreed that Wang Ai would come back after participating in the King's Cup. From his point of view, it doesn't matter whether he goes to the Youth Championship or not. For a guy with a transfer fee of 300 million yuan, why should you play in the Youth Championship? It's not a shame.
?
But he also knew that he couldn't convince Wang Ai. Wang Ai had never participated in the business activities of the national team before, which had become his unique practice. The reasons were still clear: he was either studying for graduate school or competing in other national competitions.
It's hard to object to it up or down.
Finally, Chen Jingang reported to Nan Yong and discussed with Wang Ai. The national team's business activities have been on and off throughout the summer, and the World Youth Championship will be from June 10 to early July, so Wang Ai will be absent from the national team.
One-third of the team's business activities. Therefore, Chen Jinjiang proposed that Wang Ai, while in the Netherlands, receive the national team's business itinerary plan and record a video according to the plan to fulfill the obligations of the national team member.
Wang Ai thought about it and nodded in agreement. The national team attends various business activities. Generally speaking, businesses give money and things, and the players usually take the things themselves. But in terms of money, the national team has to keep one-third of the money.
Funds above two and above should be turned over to the Football Association. Otherwise, how can the Football Association carry out youth football? How can it open a coaching training class?
When the children we finally raised become adults, they are still not allowed to repay the family and take care of the next generation?
It is for this reason that Wang Ai reluctantly agreed to complete this obligation during training and competitions in the Netherlands.
After making an agreement with the national team, Wang Ai and others waited at the airport for less than half an hour before taking a short-distance flight directly to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, that is, the Netherlands.
At Utrecht Airport, Wang Ai got off the small plane and got the suitcase that was to be dragged back to Beijing. It was full of gifts for family and close friends. But he had no choice but to bring it to the Netherlands.
Since I decided to join the National Youth Team at the last minute, I purchased a lot of gifts in London to give to my teammates.
Even if these current teammates are basically playing in the Chinese Super League, they are basically not short of money.
Therefore, most of the gifts Wang Ai purchases now are souvenirs, and some are gifts related to teammates who usually express their favorite La Liga stars in the QQ group. For example, Zhou Haibin said once a year ago that he likes Zidane. This time
Come, Wang Ai brought a signed photo of Zidane.
Of course, the teammates also know the depth and cannot care about the souvenirs of players with whom Wang Ai has a normal relationship. They are mainly concentrated in the Deportivo La Coruna team, which makes it much easier.
Outside the airport, an acquaintance was waiting for Wang Ai with a smile on his face.
