In fact, Chang Sheng didn't take Gorka's matter too seriously.
This can be seen from his attitude towards Gorka.
When Ji Leng's son went to the youth training camp for training, Chang Sheng personally took him there, which shows how much he values Ji Ming.
As for Gorka, he just told him to go to the relevant club departments to go through the procedures, sign the contract, and then go to Stramaccioni to report.
He doesn't care.
The only concern was: "Tell them I let you in."
It doesn't matter to him whether Gorka succeeds or not.
If it succeeds, it will just be like having one more coach.
If you don't succeed, then go back to where you came from. From now on, each side will go towards the sky, and no one will owe anyone.
And Chang Sheng feels that the probability of failure is very high.
Although Gorka experienced some setbacks, it made others mature a lot.
But he still felt that this might be Gorka pretending to find a job. Please forgive him for his doubts about Gorka, because he has a deep prejudice against Gorka in his heart.
He always believed that Gorka's character would make it difficult to achieve great success.
Such people may be hot for three minutes, but will return to their old ways soon.
This is what is meant by the saying that it is easy to change a country but hard to change its nature, but it is hard for a dog to change its nature.
He had no hope for Gorka.

On August 6, the entire Lazio team set off for Shanghai, China.
They will train there for a week, during which they will play one game each against the Shanghai local team and the Hong Kong team.
The game against Hong Kong United will be played in Hong Kong. After the game against Hong Kong, they will go to Seoul.
This is the second time that Lazio, coached by Chang Sheng, has come to China, and it is also the third time that Lazio has led the team to play in China.
In his ten-year coaching career, this frequency is considered high.
Despite this, the response from the Chinese market has been very good.
Especially after Chang Sheng just led the team to win the second triple crown in his career.
Chang Sheng has become the best head coach in world football. No one.
Whether he wants it or not, admits it or not, he is the pride of China and the pride of Chinese football.
Many fans no longer care about Chinese players killing everyone in Europe. They think they are still satisfied with watching regular wins.
Changsheng's own commercial value has now reached its peak.
Especially in China.
Various companies seek him out for endorsements.
Chang Sheng earns tens of millions of RMB every year from advertising revenue alone. This is more than the salary he earned at Lazio.
This time Lazio came to play in the Asian Tour, Chang Sheng also had some personal business activities.
He has to sign endorsement contracts with many companies and represent them in advertisements.
In addition to local companies in China, there are also some big international brands that also value Chang Sheng's influence and reputation in the Chinese market and ask him to be an endorsement, specifically targeting the Chinese market. Some local companies in China value his influence in Europe.
and fame, asked him to endorse, and planned to enter the European market.
He endorses a powerful real estate company and can earn 10 million yuan every year.
In addition, he was also directly given a villa in a high-end residential area in Shanghai.
In addition, the Weibo of a well-known national portal website also invited Changsheng to settle in. It costs RMB 5 million per year.
In addition, there are other endorsements from banks, endorsements from insurance companies, endorsements from an international brand of health care products in China, endorsements from formal suit brands, endorsements from watches, endorsements from cars, mobile phone ads...
Chang Sheng has a series of endorsement contracts.
This made him earn a lot of money.
Chinese companies lined up to send him money.
Changsheng adheres to the principle that the more the better, the more money, the better. As long as it is a reputable big brand, we will not reject it.
Here again his advantages as a time traveler can be reflected.
He knows which brands will publish some negative news with greater influence in the future, which will also cause damage to his own image. No matter how much money is offered to such brands, Changsheng will not accept it.
Soon everyone will be able to see advertisements for brand products endorsed by Changsheng in every corner of the city.
The products he endorses can be found in every corner of life, almost pervasive.
On outdoor billboards in busy commercial areas, on advertising walls in large shopping malls, in the advertising pages of fashion magazines, in prime time TV ads, on billboards at bus stops. On the Internet...
His presence is everywhere.
In the family area where Chang Sheng's family originally lived, you can even see Chang Sheng's advertising posters.
Everyone talks about Chang Sheng’s story of success. It’s almost like a legend.
Other than envy, it can only make people jealous.
For today's Chang Sheng, he no longer needs to rack his brains to make money. In order to use the money to play in the securities market, he even had to advance his salary for one year at the club.
Now, to him, money is nothing more than money. It is just numbers.
Chang Sheng will give a large part of this income to Kate Gracie to invest in the U.S. securities market and futures market, while the other part will be invested in his own investment company by investing in various promising projects.
And earn high returns.
Because of Kate Gracie’s professional knowledge, coupled with the winning crossing advantage, and the vision of other professionals.
Chang Sheng’s current money is like a snowball, growing more and more.
Chang Sheng has never specifically calculated how much money he has.
He only knew in general terms that with his current extravagant lifestyle, he would not be able to spend it all in two lifetimes.
Now that he is getting a maximum salary at Lazio, he really doesn't take the four million a year salary seriously.
For him, getting the maximum salary is more of a respect for him from the club, which shows that he is the most important person in the team. No one can do without him, because he is unique, so they have prepared it for him.
Such a unique salary standard.
No other player's salary is as high as his.
There is no one like him.
In his contract with the club, there is a special agreement, that is, his salary must be the highest in the team.
Nowadays, the job of winning is no longer for money.
It’s about constantly challenging and surpassing ourselves.

After a long flight, the entire Lazio team landed at Shanghai Pudong International Airport.
There, they received a grand welcome.
Of course, in terms of scale, it is naturally not comparable to the battles that took place when Real Madrid visited China in 2003... That visit to China by Real Madrid was a commercial event that can be recorded in history.
Lazio still couldn't compete with Real Madrid at that time.
With seven superstars, Real Madrid is at its peak commercially.
If Lazio hadn't had a consistent winner, even if they were the Triple Crown champions, they might not be as popular in China as Liverpool.
The place where Lazio trains in Shanghai is actually on Chongming Island, far away from downtown Shanghai. There is a football base there, which was invested and built by Xu Genbao, a former figure in Chinese football.
The choice of where to go was also the result of consultation and cooperation among multiple parties.
Because this is also related to a cooperation between Lazio Club and Shanghai East Asia Club.
Chang Sheng is also very satisfied with training in this quiet place.
When the team arrived at Chongming Island, Chang Sheng met Xu Genbao, the "island owner" who came to welcome the team.
The old coach still wears a pair of color-changing glasses, which is almost exactly the same as when he was coaching Shanghai Shenhua.
The two men completed a historic handshake in the presence of the media.
This may be a handshake between the most famous head coach in China before and the most famous head coach in China now.
Then the two sides entered the training base and held a meeting in the conference room.
This meeting was mainly to show the cooperation between the two parties to the media.
Because according to their previous discussions, Shanghai East Asia will become the satellite club of Lazio Club in China.
There are various cooperations between the two parties, including exchanging coaches and regularly organizing coaches to work and study in their respective clubs. Lazio coaches come to East Asia to guide the work of East Asian coaches, while East Asian coaches come to Lazio to learn from Europe.
Advanced football concepts and training methods.
In addition to exchanging coaches, Shanghai East Asia players will also regularly go to Lazio for study. This kind of study is not registered, which means that the players cannot represent Lazio in the game, but they can study in the Lazio club for a period of three months to a season.
Waiting training.
In fact, it is a trial. If Lazio takes a fancy to the East Asian players in the trial, they can submit a transfer application to the East Asian club. Then the two parties will follow the formal transfer procedures to transfer the players. The East Asian club also has the right to refuse...
However, this won't happen.
Xu Genbao said it. If his players can be valued by high-level European clubs, it would be his honor. It means that his work is fruitful and he will not stop it.
Lazio is obviously a high-level club in Europe.
After the talks, representatives of both clubs held a cooperation signing ceremony in the presence of Chinese and Italian media.
After the signing ceremony, Lotito told reporters on behalf of the Lazio club: "We are very happy to be able to help the development and progress of Chinese football in this way."
Chang Sheng did not go up to speak. He smiled and applauded from the audience.
In fact, the driving force behind this incident is Chang Sheng.
As a time traveler and a capable time traveler, he still has to contribute to the football of his motherland.
Although he cannot directly coach the Chinese national team, he can definitely help Chinese football through other channels.
Who said that only coaching the national team can be considered helpful?
Cultivating Gao Hongbo and cooperating with Chinese clubs with ideas is the way to win.
Xu Genbao stayed in seclusion on Chongming Island for ten years just to cultivate stars for Chinese football. Chang Sheng believed that he was a real person who did practical things.
Much better than the kind of local tycoon who spent money to get the Chinese Football Association to hire a big Spanish scammer.
So Chang Sheng is willing to cooperate with Xu Genbao.
In fact, the cooperative club was also formulated by Chang Sheng himself.
Otherwise, there are so many football clubs in Shanghai, and Shanghai Shenhua is much more famous and has a greater history than Shanghai East Asia, so why not choose Shenhua?
Changsheng hopes to improve the level of Chinese football through cooperation with Xu Genbao's Shanghai East Asia, not the overall level, even if it is only a partial level, it is meaningful.
Even if it can help East Asia develop a few more national players and a few Chinese stars who can compete in high-level European football competitions, Chang Sheng will feel that his rebirth has not been in vain for ten years.
Some things always have to be done by someone, let’s start with this cooperation. (To be continued...)
