Wang Ai was noncommittal about Lao Gao's words. This is the power of the coach. Since Lao Gao made this unconventional decision and it was well-founded, Wang Ai had no reason to object. He is not a good player. What's the matter?
He has to oppose and oppose again and again to gain a sense of presence. If the national team did not need him as a fixed star, a pillar, and a protective umbrella in the early years, he would not even want to be the captain.
He just wants to be the boss!
After leaving the conference room, Wang Ai went to the dormitory building accompanied by Zhao Xuri. A large number of teammates had just finished swimming and came towards them. There was another bustle. Some people blamed Wang Ai for not bringing the trophy to everyone to see what was new. Wang Ai was so embarrassed.
I had no choice but to promise to take everyone home to watch it together when I was free.
In the early years, Wang Ai's home was often visited by teammates. Later, because Wang Ai lived overseas, everyone was pulled by Wang Ai to have their own careers, so they had less private interactions. But this is a new generation after all, thanks to the convenient Internet technology
As a matter of fact, we have quite a lot of contact without seeing each other, so this meeting feels a bit like netizens rushing to see each other.
That's the kind of thing: "I finally got to meet you, kid!"
In addition, there is also some reason for Xu Qinglian. Now the "sister-in-law" has been deified in the national team. In the early years, Zhao Xuri, Zhou Haibin and even Qu Bo Laobai's subconscious reaction to seeing Xu Qinglian had already spread. They were not willing to go, and neither were others.
If you dare to go, there will be fewer people in Wang Ai's house after coming and going.
Of course, there is another layer. A close friend like Zhao Xuri knows that Wang Ai has many women and can understand Wang Ai's upbringing. Of course, it doesn't matter if they are just like each other. Anyway, he wants to hide it for the boss, so there is no need.
Bring the newcomers.
Hearing Wang Ai say this, you can understand that Wang Ai will definitely settle things at home first.
I don’t know who arranged the dormitory allocation. Wang Ai and Wu Lei share a room. This kid has been high-spirited and loyal since he was a child. Since he joined the national team, he has become very popular. Of course, Xu Genbao, Gao Hongbo, and Wang Ai have been in the national team for three generations.
The clear inheritance of the team and the convergence of the three major football powers of Shanghai, BJ and Liaoning respectively represented by the three of them all determined that Wu Lei, recommended by Xu Genbao and approved by Gao Hongbo, was Wang Ai's younger brother and no one dared to bully him.
"Brother Wang...hehe." Wu Lei helped Wang Ai put down his luggage without knowing what to say, just scratching his head and giggling.
"Call me boss!" Wang Ai pointed at Wu Lei's nose: "Why did you call me when you were a kid? Forgot?"
"Boss!" Wu Lei corrected his attitude.
"I heard that you played well in the Shanghai team?" Wang Ai sat down.
"It's okay." Wu Lei still smiled innocently.
Wang Ai looked him up and down and sighed in his heart. Whether it was for loyalty, money or a stable future, it would be difficult for Wu Lei to follow the path of the generation of the 84 national youth. Wang Ai's overseas football channels are difficult for his generation to make full use of.
"I heard that your boy's idol is Ronaldo?"
Wu Lei hesitated for a moment, and then said in a low voice, "It's you."
"Ah? Ah, that's right." Wang Ai patted his head: "Okay, I'll give Ronaldo's signed jersey to someone else."
"No, boss!" Wu Lei, the silly boy, finally broke through and rushed forward to hug Wang Ai's arm.
Seeing how Wu Lei couldn't put it down while holding the Brazilian national team's No. 9 jersey, Wang Ai couldn't help but give him a step: "Just this time, next time you can get whoever you want."
"I..." Wu Lei finally raised his head and blinked his little eyes to understand the underlying meaning of Wang Ai's words, but he only understood the first step: "Don't worry, boss, I will definitely play well."
Wang Ai sighed again in his heart, if Yao Xia had climbed up immediately back then.
"How is the old man's health? I haven't looked at him for a long time." Wang Ai asked about Xu Genbao's current situation.
"Director Xu is in good health. He came to the last training camp, but he didn't look at you..."
"You scolded me, right?" Wang Ai saw Wu Lei nodding and laughed loudly: "The old man is good at everything but has a bad mouth. I don't want to see him, I still miss him."
"I didn't say anything to you. I just said that you wouldn't be a good leader for us newcomers by not participating in the national team training." Wu Lei defended Xu Genbao.
Wang Ai smiled and listened, Mr. Jinbosi's loyalty is not in vain.
The brothers were chatting when the door rang and Zhao Xuri came in: "Boss, do you want to train tonight?"
Wang Ai raised his hand to look at his watch and nodded: "Training, I haven't moved much in the past two days, I need to recover."
"That's just in time. The whole team is going to practice at night. You change your clothes and let's go downstairs."
At around ten o'clock at night, everyone came back from the training ground. Zhou Haibin led the team to lead them upstairs, while Zhao Xuri pulled Wang Ai behind.
"Is it okay to keep people so late?" Wang Ai asked casually.
"What they want." Zhao Xuri said: "Now it is different from before. In the past, quotas were released during training sessions. One was to relieve the pressure on the coaching staff, and the other was to make us less conspicuous. But this trick of going back and forth didn't work anymore.
I don’t know who is so bad, but they say they are temporary workers for the national team, so don’t they have to stay later to look better?”
Wang Ai hummed, then took off his jersey and went shirtless to let the cool night breeze blow.
Zhao Xuri also opened the hem of his jersey, but did not take it off. He just shouted: "But everyone knows who can do it and who can't, and everyone knows who can go and who can't. Gao has guided them to achieve this step. This is the bottom line."
Yes, it is also the utmost benevolence and righteousness."
Wang Ai turned his head and glanced at Zhao Xuri. Seeing that his expression was determined but his eyes were a little complicated, he patted him on the shoulder and said, "You can't stand it anymore, tell me."
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xuri's shoulders immediately collapsed: "Boss, aren't I telling you this? I tell you that it has not annoyed me to death for more than a year. Since I came back from the Confederations Cup last year and I spoke on your behalf,
This thing has never happened. Can you imagine? I haven’t dealt with him for 800 years, and relatives who don’t even know my mother can come to my door, just to help a relative who is beyond his reach, and he said
If you want to join the national team, say that I am the captain and I am the confidant of Director Gao, so I will do what I say!"
Wang Ai laughed heartily and couldn't help but nod: "What you said really works."
"Yes." Zhao Xuri nodded resignedly: "Director Gao, everyone can give me this face no matter what, but what is the result? What is the result? The result is that I am finished. What our team relies on today is to be honest with each other and have no selfish intentions.
What is important is that everyone works together for their ideals, and is distributed according to work and talent. If I break the rules once, the goal can be achieved, but everyone will not trust me again in the future. More importantly, the environment we have relied on along the way has been destroyed.
I destroyed it with my own hands. As much as you can bear it, I can't bear it myself."
"This is just torn trousers wrapped around my legs, toads on my feet, and there are some awesome mountain noises, and I don't know if they are true or false." Speaking of this, Zhao Xuri looked up to the sky and sighed: "Why should I have known this earlier?
If the captain is so hard to do, I won’t do it no matter how much money he is given, let alone if I don’t pay him back!”
