Lao Gao looked at Wang Ai's astonished expression and rubbed his teeth: "The situation in this national junior qualifying competition is very dangerous. We are in a group with North Korea, just like we were in a group with South Korea in the Millennium. One group is
One qualified. North Korea is very strong this year, but our strength is average. If we are eliminated in the qualifiers, this national junior team will have to be disbanded. So the coach leading the team asked you through me, if you are willing to go.
Do me a favor."
"But I still want to play in the World Cup."
"Just one day!" Lao Gao raised a finger: "You can fly to North Korea in the morning of the 24th, play a game in the evening, and then come back directly without delaying your warm-up match in Macau and Portugal on the 25th."
"Then you can carry it over when you use it together, and throw it aside when you're done using it?" Wang Ai said unhappily.
"Aren't you busy playing in the World Cup?"
"Then can I play? I don't know who is in this national youth team. I have never participated in their training and warm-up. If they are just handed over to me, what use can I be?"
"You don't know yet?" Gao Hongbo said in surprise: "Yu Yang, Wang Yongpo, Gao Lin, and Zeng Cheng are all here. All the players in our team who were born after 1986 were selected for this national junior team. They have been formed for more than half a year.
. Moreover, your name was put in before the Asian Junior Championships, so the critical moments are reserved for you to save the match."
"Ah? I was also selected to be a national junior this time? Why didn't anyone tell me?" Wang Ai said in surprise, and then pouted: "Then in the end, isn't it better to use people to go forward and not to use people to go behind? Besides, choose me.
Do you agree?"
"Hiss, are you still up to it?" Lao Gao was unhappy: "You should thank me! I don't recruit you for training in normal times. That's because they want you to play in the professional league and are afraid of delaying your future. Why don't you appreciate it? The country
I need you, what other conditions do you want?"
Wang Ai scratched his face. In the year since Lao Gao became the leader, he not only gained weight, but his eloquence also improved.
Lao Gao was still chattering there: "You said you were fat and you were breathless. Why didn't you make any conditions when I recruited you to join the team? Now you are the world junior champion and a member of the national team. You don't look down on the national junior team anymore, right?
?”
"Who said there are no conditions?" Wang Ai rolled his eyes: "Why don't you show your hand to me?"
"Hey, let me tell you, when you go to North Korea, you can't tell Director Liu to let him play a game. He is over 40 and not as young as me."
"Are you still young?" Wang Ai curled his lips: "Now when you go out to play football, I will kick you to death. Do you believe it or not?"
Lao Gao's family knows his own affairs, and even at 180 pounds, he can't play with Wang Ai: "Don't talk nonsense, just tell me whether you want to go or not."
"I said, senior brother-in-law, you've already stepped aside, why are you still meddling in other people's affairs? What's the point of not having fun leading a national junior team? The honorary title I co-authored with you is: 'Forever National Junior Coach'!"
"People have found me, how can I just say nothing and just ignore them? What's wrong with us all leading the youth team to help each other? Besides, the national youth team is also the national team, so how can I not use it?"
"Ha! After all, you asked me to do you a favor." Wang Ai muttered: "Can the national team agree? You just said that the national team has strict discipline."
"Others can't tell, but you have no problem!" Lao Gao said with certainty: "You have done countless extraordinary things. Besides, you are just a new substitute for the national team, so don't take yourself too seriously.
Okay? Do you really think that the calendar will never turn over without you? Anyway, as long as you nod, I will do other things."
"I won't nod!"
Without saying a word, Gao Hongbo grabbed Wang Ai's head and pressed it forcefully: "Okay, you nodded."
The master and the apprentice settled the matter just by joking. Wang Ai did not refuse to serve for the 86th National Youth League this time, but the news was too sudden and Wang Ai had no preparation. What's more, even if Lao Gao is unreasonable and arrogant,
They confused the matter, but both of them knew in their hearts that the 86 National Youth League really used Wang Ai as a substitute. If he had good grades and a successful career, Wang Ai could be quietly removed if he was included in the list.
Anyway, the outside world doesn’t pay much attention to the matter of the young master, and no one knows who is on the list. If they really want to go on smoothly in the end, then the honors and bonuses will not be Wang Ai’s share! It’s just that people
He also kept an eye out, fearing that something might happen, so he saved such a hand. From this point of view, Wang Ai has to thank the North Korean team.
From Wang Ai's perspective, what this junior national team did was not very authentic. Not only did they not want to give honors to Wang Ai, but they also had the intention of not wanting to give honors to Lao Gao. Obviously, if Wang Ai had joined the team early,
In the end, when I achieved good results, everyone would say that it was because of Gao Hongbo.
It’s hard for Lao Gao to bear such humiliation and bear such heavy burden in order to return.
Thinking of this, Wang Ai suddenly realized that Lao Gao was taking the blame for himself? If he hadn't acted recklessly in the National Youth League, Lao Gao would not have been sent to Shanghai to be the vice chairman of the local football association.
Yes! You have to jump into the hole you dug with your eyes closed.
I don’t know how Lao Gao told the Football Association or who he told it to. Anyway, before Wang Ai returned to the hotel at noon, Ma Mingyu came over to tell him: The Football Association has specially approved three days of leave, three days on the 23rd, 24th and 25th!
There are a lot of things going on with the national football team these days, and there are basically no training arrangements. Wang Ai and Yang Chen practice together, and use their rest time to think about their doctoral thesis. Turn to the 21st, the national football team’s physical examination, that is
I don’t know what the purpose of drawing a tube of blood is. On the 22nd, the national football team held a press conference in Shanghai for the World Cup. In addition to repeating the list of the national team that caused an uproar, they also announced the list of delegation members. Ma Mingyu also seemed to be there.
I read a letter to fans across the country, and I don’t know who wrote it. Anyway, it can’t be Ma Mingyu. Apart from playing football, he also knows how to kill legends. He also bought a lot of transcendental discount cards from Wang Ai.
You said that you, a person with an annual salary of millions, are only short of three cents?
On the 23rd, Wang Ai took all the procedures that Lao Gao had handled, took off from Shanghai with Sun Yi, and landed in Pyongyang two hours later. As soon as he turned on his mobile phone, Zeng Cheng's call came in.
"Boss, help!"
"Did you know I was coming?"
"Hehe, we have been looking forward to this day for a long time."
"Huh?" Wang Ai thought for a while: "Did you tell me that I was selected as a national junior?"
"That's right!" Zeng Cheng said confidently: "We have told Director Liu a long time ago. If Director Liu hadn't said that you are at a critical moment in the professional competition, we would have asked you to come."
A warm current surged in Wang Ai's heart. He hadn't seen each other for more than a year. The brothers still thought of him and couldn't forget him when good things happened. So he said with emotion: "Then I have to thank the brothers. If nothing else, today
I'll treat you tonight! Um...huh? By the way, do you miss my skills or my treat?"
"Hahaha, everything is there!" A burst of laughter broke out on the phone, and then the loud voices of Wang Yongpo, Gao Lin and others rang out.
