Wang Ai nodded in agreement, and the two let go. Wang Ai noticed that Director Nie didn't seem to be very interested, but he couldn't help it, so he asked from behind: "Can I take a photo with you if I want to?"
Nie Weiping turned around and stood firm: "Okay."
Wang Ai stretched out his hand and greeted his teammates: "Come all!"
Everyone ran over cheering, and Nie Weiping finally smiled a little. This group photo could not end in an instant. After the big group group photo, there was another small group group photo. After taking the group photo with Nie Weiping, everyone took a group photo with the leaders again. This went back and forth.
More than twenty minutes.
The commendation meeting was relatively simple. Wang Ai didn't care much about the content of the rewards. He had received everything he should and could get, so while Yan Shiduo read out the content of the rewards on the stage, he secretly asked Director Liu: "Director Nie seems to
Not very interested? Or maybe he doesn’t like me very much?”
Director Liu gave Wang Ai a meaningful smile without explaining.
Monk Wang Aizhang was confused and went up to the stage to receive a bonus of 100,000 US dollars. His teammates ranged from 50,000 to 80,000. Anyway, it was about the same. Unlike other sports teams that sometimes have bonuses.
Conflicts arose over the issue. Football has become professional. As long as athletes do not accept advertisements as a national team, the Football Association will neither take a commission nor care. The absolute core Wang Ai is also a rich man and a philanthropist. He does not care how much he gives.
If you give less, three-quarters of the problem will disappear, so everyone is quite peaceful and relaxed.
After the money was distributed, it was time to eat and drink. At this time, Wang Ai gradually understood what Director Liu's smile meant. Seeing Nie instructing him to put down half a bottle of white wine, loosen his collar, wave his fan and start chatting, Wang Airuo realized: This is
Not enough.
After returning from the toast at the old leader's table, Director Nie waved: "Come here."
Wang Aidian ran over and waved Feng Xiaoting, who was joining in the fun, to get out and sit aside: "Shall I fill it up for you?"
"No, if you drink any more you will become confused. I just want to hear what you have to say."
Wang Ai looked up and down at the chess master, whose face was red and his forehead was sweating...
"What do you think I'm doing? Where am I? You only know that my nickname is Chess Saint, but do you know that I have another nickname?" Director Nie pointed his fan at Wang Ai. When Wang Ai shook his head, he
The fan snapped away: "Jiu Xian'er!"
Wang Ai smiled happily and nodded: "Nacheng, what do you want to ask me?"
"What's going on with your style of play?" Director Nie became serious: "I calculated your strength before you went. Hey, let me tell you, I often watch your games, especially your professional leagues, so
Let me tell you, I have seen at least one-fifth of it. So I have an estimate of your strength. Although I also want to see you get the trophy back, I think you are still a little behind."
Without waiting for Wang Ai to say anything, Director Nie kept talking: "For this reason, I went to a psychiatrist and asked them if my opinion was negatively affected by your poor performance in the past. I have seen dozens of them.
I have been playing football for 20 years now, and I have been in contact with many coaches, and my experience is slowly showing. I really didn’t expect you guys to really be able to do it. Tell me, there must be something I don’t know about you.
Something, something deep.”
"Well..." Wang Ai collected his thoughts and his expression became serious. Just as he was about to speak, Director Nie clapped his hands with his fan and said, "Are you still very talented?"
Wang Ai laughed loudly: "Did you just deceive me?"
"Boy!" Nie Weiping hit Wang Ai on the head with a fan and said proudly: "This is called a soldier who never tires of deceit. Okay, come on, tell me about it. I, a heart-wrenching person like me, can't understand."
Wang Ai chuckled and said: "Actually, your judgment is right. Your judgment is similar to our internal judgment. We also think that we have a chance to win the championship, but it is always a little short. You must know that we play football, and our career life and
The game of Go has been very poor, and it has been like this for more than ten years. I am 24 this year, and after losing the Confederations Cup last year, I came back and calculated again. The World Cup only comes once every four years. If I really lose, I will be like Bai Guanghai or Sun Jihai next time.
They will definitely retire, and many of my teammates will also retire. Isn’t this no fun? So this is South Africa’s chance.”
"Are you anxious?"
"Isn't that right?" Wang Ai nodded: "I'll just think about it after this. You have to fight for it no matter what, right? We are competing with the strong European teams, in terms of body, technology, consciousness, etc., I can only say that we can keep up.
But we definitely don’t surpass them. But we also have one basic quality that they are inferior to. That is, the main body of our national team has not changed in ten years. It has always been us, so the tacit understanding between each other is very high. After all,
Think of it as more of a leveling."
Seeing that Director Nie understood and nodded, Wang Aicai continued: "It was only one year from last year to this year, and we are all adults. It is already unlikely that there will be any further improvement in technology. But we are still
If we want to win this championship, we have to think of other ways. My body can't improve, but my mind is still good, so we figured out a set of techniques and tactics."
"Is this what you heard?" Nie directed his fan to close and concentrate.
"Well... to put it simply, our new tactics were developed intermittently. After studying our military's military thinking, drawing nutrients from it, and combining it with the development trend of contemporary football tactics and our own situation. Anyway, everyone
The coaches and players were involved, and it was really created by all the members of our 10-member national team. After returning from South Africa, I have a deeper understanding of this tactic, and now it can be said that it has three levels."
"Which three?"
"The first is the ideological level, which is also the guiding spirit. We have emphasized the word 'confrontation'. It includes physical confrontation, technical confrontation, will confrontation, tactical confrontation, and cooperative confrontation. This ranges from individual players to several players to the entire team.
From the head coach to the coach, everything is included. To put it simply, we must not only play to our strengths, but also curb the opponent's strengths, and at the same time never make the opponent comfortable."
Director Nie pondered for a moment: "Are you looking at Harvey?"
Wang Ai opened his eyes: "You are really an expert. Yes, I see Xavi as the focus and core of the two games against Spain. The all-round confrontation between the two of us is centered on the two of us.
The midfield confrontation, as well as the higher-level tactical confrontation. When I pinch Xavi, Spain's advantages cannot be used, which makes the Spanish team unhappy. Director Gao also makes Del Bosque unhappy by regulating the tactical rhythm.
Anyway, that’s all you need to understand, it’s about taking the initiative on the battlefield and mobilizing the opponent. I remember that this is also emphasized in Go, right?”
Coach Nie nodded deeply, and then said: "This is an improvement. I have never heard of someone who understands football so well before."
"The second level is formation and tactics. Letting me play in the midfield is the difficulty of this tactical innovation. We have been arguing for more than half a year."
"It's really unexpected that you play as a midfielder. I never expected it. You are so brave."
Wang Ai chuckled: "The leader is tolerant, and everyone has no selfish intentions. Besides, this was forced by the Spanish team. Without Spain and the tick-tock style of play, we might not have been able to make this determination. Spain is a roadblock.
We tried our best in the second game of last year's Confederations Cup, but later in the review we found that no matter how we manipulated it, the winning rate did not exceed 20%, so we must make up our minds."
"Tiktak? Tiktak, right?" Director Nie pushed up his glasses: "I think you also have some interest in this style of play, and I also see that there seems to be total attack and total defense?"
Wang Ai nodded: "Both are a little bit. When we were young, we were physically worse than our foreign opponents, so we emphasized footwork, passing and catching, and more to play with less. This has the shadow of these two systems. But relying on this alone is not enough.
, so I was transferred to the midfield to form a dual-core with Chen Tao, which appeared to be a stable 442 formation that was relatively balanced on both offense and defense. In fact, Chen Tao and I took over from all directions and used our individual and cooperative confrontation capabilities to stand firm in the midfield.
, revitalize the whole team.”
Seeing that Director Nie was starting to think, Wang Ai smiled: "Dong Fangzhuo calls our formation the Tai Chi Bagua formation. In the middle, Chen Tao and I are the yin and yang fish, and the eight people outside are the Qian Kan Gen Zhen Xun Li Kun Dui. With the two of us as the
The skeleton is made up of all four sides. It can not only avoid the shortcomings of our Chinese players' poor positional sense, but also take advantage of Chen Tao and I's personal skills, especially our high tacit understanding. You know, Chen Tao and I have been together since we were 12 or 3 years old.
Playing football until 23,4, from the National Youth, National Youth, National Olympics to the national team, is unique in the World Cup, not even Spain's Xavi and Iniesta can do it, although they are a youth
We were in the training camp, but we didn’t experience so many competitions as a kid.”
"Well...according to my observation, your midfield ability is better than Xavi's, and Chen Tao's ability is lower than Iniesta's. The two of you together are almost equal to their combination, but this tacit understanding..." At this point
, Director Nie suddenly became interested, pushed the plate in front of him aside, took some dried fruits and put them on the table: "Two centre-backs, two forwards, two full-backs, two full-backs, your positions are relatively fixed, you two
It's spinning in the middle, right? It's a bit like an engine. Your combination is the heart. It's not responsible for directly conquering cities and territories, but it's responsible for providing power."
Wang Ai nodded: "At the same time, he is also responsible for occupying the midfielder with the center circle as the core, as well as providing support, cover, and contact. Of course, the outside is also responsible for supporting and supporting us."
Director Nie pondered: "What about the third level?"
"That's the person." Wang Aishun pointed to the center of a pile of dried fruits on the table: "The key is that the two midfielders have comprehensive abilities. In this way, whether they are attacking or defending, they can firmly control the central area, a place that extends in all directions.
At least you can maintain a stalemate. This can be regarded as a battleground for military strategists, and it can also be regarded as a traffic artery. In addition to not having high requirements for headers, your foot skills, mental vision, and body must be good. At least half of them must be very good. As for the body
Generally speaking, the most important thing here is endurance. Only with enough endurance can you always bear the core responsibility of high-speed operation and persevere. At the same time, you must have explosive power, otherwise your opponent will directly collide with you and you will not be able to withstand it."
Director Nie looked up when he heard this and saw Wang Ai's eyes were calm and focused. The teammates around Wang Ai who also came to listen to the chat also had the same expression, and suddenly smiled: "It's amazing."
"What?" Wang Ai wondered: "Why did you say such a thing?"
Director Nie smiled and shook his head, and Wang Ai asked: "I'm just annoyed by you adults being like this. You always say half the words and leave the other half behind, which makes people anxious."
Director Nie laughed and laughed: "Are you not an adult anymore? Okay, let me tell you, the third point you just mentioned, most people will think you are bragging and belittling your teammates, but I see that what you said is justified,
Especially them..."
Director Nie swept a circle of people with his fan: "Especially them, of course. This just proves what you just said, no one is selfish. I think a team of more than 20 people can be so united without being selfish.
, it’s amazing. With such a team, no wonder you made history, 1+1>2.”
After hearing Director Nie's praise, everyone laughed, and Director Nie also said: "Hehe to you all, your unity is real. The two of you look the same after a long time. You two have been together for a long time, laugh."
The voices are all the same, and they all have the smell of a bad boy."
Zhao Xuri interjected: "You don't know that he has forced us to attend classes since we were children. You said that if we had good brains, we would go to college? People outside know that we have played football together for more than ten years. Who knew that we also went to college together?
More than ten years of lessons? Well, sometimes I would wake up when I dreamed about him asking questions. Anyway, he is responsible for all the good things in the national team, and he will definitely not be able to escape any bad things in the national team."
Everyone had a good time, joked for a while and then discussed tactical issues. From Zhang Zhaozhong's insistence on Wang Ai playing midfield to winning the World Cup, everyone's views on laymen have also changed. Like Director Nie, if you want to ask him for football skills, then
It's crazy, but if you want to discuss macro-level things like strategy and tactics with him, he is the rock from the mountain.
Of course, if a layman does not get involved in the details, such as the iliopsoas muscle, it will be wrong.
"Your formation is a bit similar to our Go game. The kick-off point is a center point, then four corner flags, two gates, two intersections of the center line and the side lines, one in the middle, and eight outside. This is similar to our Go game.
It’s the same. But in Go we generally emphasize the golden horns, silver edges and grass belly, and use the sidelines to seize the ground, but you guys..." Director Nie frowned.
"We also have this." Chen Tao explained: "It is also easier for us to control the ball in the corners."
Director Nie raised his head and hummed, not knowing what to think. It took him a few minutes to come back to his senses: "What did you just say your name was?"
The teammates were stunned for a moment, and Dong Fangzhuo raised his hand: "I was joking, Tai Chi Bagua array."
"This is the formation, what about the tactics?"
Everyone shook their heads, and Zhou Haibin explained: "It is still being enriched and improved, and I have never thought of naming it."
Director Nie suddenly sighed softly: "Your strategy of focusing on the general trend, attaching importance to the whole, and seizing the center reminds me of a person. His name is Wu Qingyuan..."
Speaking of this, Director Nie suddenly got rid of his melancholy and looked at the national players who had just won the World Cup: "You have very similar ideas, and you all want to fight for Tianyuan, so why not call it Tianyuan tactics."
