Florentino crossed his fingers and nodded subconsciously with his two thumbs. He half raised his head and looked at the furnishings in the dining room with a trace of memories: "Yes..."
Then he quickly came back to his senses, looked at Wang Ai and shook his head with a smile on his face: "I have never been able to fall in love with someone so quickly. I regret a little why I didn't treat you to dinner earlier."
Wang Ai chuckled: "If it hadn't been for the big win just now, I might not have performed so well."
"Hahahaha." Florentino finally stopped pretending, laughed out loud, and extended his hand to invite the two of them to dinner.
The banquet was coming to an end full of fun, accompanied by exquisite food, and Florentino got down to business again: "Wang, you have scored 19 goals for Real Madrid, right?"
Compared with last season and previous seasons, your goals are significantly lower and your assists are significantly increased. Can you tell me the reason? You can say it with confidence."
Wang Ai pondered for a while: "My integration needs a process."
Florentino didn't expect Wang Ai's answer to be so short. After analyzing it in his mind, he couldn't help but said: "Actually, as a super giant, you can assert your rights, even in Real Madrid."
Wang Ai smiled brightly and said: "Yes, I know I can, but unless the team urgently needs me to save it, I am more accustomed to using a smooth curve to strengthen the collective and realize myself."
"But in this case, your interests will be eroded."
"Just have to be patient for a while."
Florentino's eyes were pointed directly at the calm Wang Ai behind his spectacles, and he nodded after a moment: "Many sponsors blame us for your decline in performance after coming to Real Madrid. I have conveyed the request to the coaching staff.
I hope you can adapt to your request to play more games as soon as possible. Like you said, strengthen the collective and realize yourself."
Wang Ai nodded: "I assure you, they were not instigated by me. In fact, they came to see me first."
"So you only had three goals and two assists today?" Florentino asked immediately.
"Yes." Wang Ai nodded and smiled.
"You and Rafael worked together at Inter Milan?"
"Yes." Wang Ai answered briefly, with a hint of curiosity in his eyes.
After Florentino couldn't help but say "What do you think of him?" Wang Ai's eyes showed a smile, but he just shook his head: "It's your job to evaluate the coach, not mine.
"
"But if you don't express your opinion, maybe the club will ignore his positioning of you as a substitute, or even keep you on the bench for a long time."
Wang Ai said seriously: "I believe that my abilities and performance are better than what I said. If the coach cannot fully use me, then I can only believe that it is based on prejudice, not the interests of the team. If such behavior is not obtained
If the club corrects it, then I will be convinced that the club is also based on prejudice or some factors other than football. I will not be nostalgic for such a club."
"Then let me put it another way, what kind of coach do you think is suitable for Real Madrid?"
Wang Ai looked at Florentino and couldn't help but smile: "Real Madrid's staffing is too powerful and luxurious. As long as the coach fully stimulates everyone's abilities, he can solve 99% of the opponents on this planet."
Florentino squinted his eyes and thought for a while: "Is this why you lack private contact with all your teammates, but you cooperate closely on the court?"
Wang Ai also thought for a while: "I have heard some rumors in the Real Madrid locker room... Not everyone needs me to be a friend, but everyone needs me to be a strong teammate."
Florentino pondered for a while before smiling: "Personally, I don't care much whether you are a starter or a substitute. Your greatest value is the 'coach's savior'. It seems that you have a very keen reading and analysis of the game."
Ability, coupled with your offensive versatility and explosive power, will enable you to have a few games with special contributions in each club every season. For example, the sixth round, seventh round, eleventh round, tenth round of this season
In the second round, if it weren't for you, the game would have been tied or lost, but you gained points beyond the team's limits. This is a very special, very important, surprising and unforgettable performance."
Wang Ai spread his hands: "I'm just trying my best."
Florentino shook his head and said patiently: "This is very fascinating. I have discussed it with... some people, including some people who fought for you this past summer. We all value this. Oh, of course you
The commercial value of the team is also very important, but all the stars are nothing more than more and less, and it is not as special as this kind of rescue. You are not only an indispensable part of the team's tactics, but also provide additional tactical compensation. This may be
The reason why you have won more than 50 top professional championships."
Before Wang Ai could say anything, Florentino sighed: "More than 50, no one has done it. You came to Real Madrid and turned Real Madrid into Real Madrid +1."
Wang Ai heard the sound and shook his head again: "I'm just trying my best."
This time, Florentino looked at Wang Ai for a while before nodding slightly and chatting.
Before leaving the house, Florentino patted Wang Ai on the arm: "I can't express my satisfaction with you any more. I really want to give you a salary increase if possible."
Wang Ai laughed loudly and said: "As long as it is not a consensus that salary equals status, it will be fine. Of course, I will fight for what I deserve and what is in line with my performance on the court."
Florentino suddenly instructed the secretary waiting outside: "Come, take a photo of me and Wang, I want to take it back as a souvenir."
The two parties went out and arrived at the parking lot. Before Florentino got in the car, he suddenly stopped and turned around, approached Wang Ai and stretched out his hand: "Real Madrid will definitely treat him well."
"Thank you, Mr. Chairman." Wang Ai held Florentino's hand and lowered his head slightly with a bright smile.
After getting on his own Iveco, Wang Ai first asked the guards how they had eaten for dinner, but they replied: What time was it? They had already eaten. Wang Ai just laughed and then thought carefully about today's "interview", although he was not sure
Florentino was planning to do something to him, but he was definitely ruling out something.
"What to rule out?" After hearing Wang Ai's words at home, Xiaomei was a little confused. Her Spanish was stumbling, and she was half-guessing what she was hearing.
"Isn't it because my performance has been getting better and better in recent games, so he is worried."
"Worry?"
"Worried about me becoming a problem child." Wang Ai said with a smile: "This phenomenon is not uncommon among players, let alone someone in my position. He wanted to see for himself whether I was as worry-free as the rumors say. After all, I really became a problem.
Children, whether they openly criticize coaches, teammates or clubs, form cliques, complain about low wages, or are arrogant, let alone instigating sponsors, any one of them is enough to give them a headache."
