No one expected that what was supposed to be a joyful Christmas dinner would turn into a tirade that often won over one person.
But what Wei Shaohui found strange was that the players of the Chinese national team did not feel impatient or disgusted with what Chang Sheng said.
They were silent and listened.
He was surprised.
Of course, what surprised him even more was that Chang Sheng would say these words at this time.
"The Asian Cup is coming soon. This is not a training session or a warm-up match. I think everyone should know what kind of competition this is. This is the first international competition for your national team. In fact, you should have no pressure.
The media talks about pressure all day long. I don’t know what kind of pressure you can have. Chinese fans, no one will think that you can win the championship. They don’t even expect you to reach the semi-finals. They just hope that you will perform well.
, play well on the field, be mentally tenacious, and then... just qualify from the group."
Chang Sheng talked about the Asian Cup.
"Look, what a simple goal. Just qualifying from the group, just playing well and not always breaking down easily. That's enough. Can't you do it? You all performed well in the warm-up match. But Qian Qian
Don't let others say that you are the king of warm-up matches. That is not a nice title. Now I believe you can do this because you have received the most advanced training here and you have trained very hard. I
It is no exaggeration to say that your current level has surpassed that of domestic players, but unfortunately, you can only train here for less than a month. If you can train here for a longer period of time, you
The level will be even higher.”
Chang Sheng didn't use his training skills on the Chinese national team. It's not that he was selfish. It was that he couldn't use them. The training skills can only be used on his own team. The Chinese national team is not his team, so he can't use it.
.
But even so, Chang Sheng also knows that the players of the Chinese national team have improved after receiving training here.
Because when they first arrived, Chang Sheng scanned them with [Golden Eyes] and knew their data. Now, if he scans them with [Golden Eyes] again, he can find that many players' attribute values have increased to a certain extent.
This is progress, real progress.
"Why? Because you went through our training. It was really hard, but I think you also saw what training at Lazio was like. I'm not exaggerating when I say it was five times harder than the training you have here.
"
Chang Sheng extended a slap in his face.
"There are many people in the outside world, especially those in the media. They like to look for the secret of why Lazio can succeed. They try to find shortcuts and shortcuts. But unfortunately, there are no tips and shortcuts. Have you seen our training? This is
The only way Lazio succeeds is that our training intensity is greater than theirs, our training effect is better than theirs, and our training methods are more scientific than theirs. And you have also received the same training. Therefore, you also have a successful
Base."
The reason why Chang Sheng said this is because the players of the Chinese national team always lack some self-confidence. When playing in warm-up matches or against weak teams, they tend to be proud and underestimate the enemy. But when they play against strong teams or evenly matched opponents, they
It’s easy to lose confidence.
The psychology of Chinese players has always been criticized. This is not an excuse, this is a fact.
Now this group of players are winning frequently, I hope it will give them some confidence.
He thought that if he said these words himself, the credibility might be higher.

Finally, Chang Sheng raised his glass again: "That's all I have to say, boys. Remember every word I say, you have the foundation for success, but you have to work harder for it.
It may be successful. Play well in this Asian Cup, no matter what the result is, perform well in every game, and show what you usually do in training. I think the result will not be too bad."
"I will watch every game of yours and I will cheer you on. Because I am a Chinese and a Chinese fan, and you are the Chinese national team, I put all my hope and happiness on you.
I am not the only one like this. There are hundreds of millions of people like me across China. This is pressure, but it is also motivation, because you are not alone! No matter what, when you encounter difficulties and want to give up, just look down.
Look at your hearts, that is the national flag of our country, and what it represents, I think any Chinese will know it very well, and I hope you know it too. You are the ones who cannot give up easily! You will die in the stadium in Doha
superior!"
"As a professional player, it is such a high honor to be able to represent your country in international competitions. Cherish this opportunity, so that when you retire, when you recall the 2011 Asian Cup, you don't have to
Feel guilty and regretful, and you don’t have to be evasive when asked by your descendants. You can proudly say to your descendants: I fought for the national flag on my chest and gave my best, and I have no regrets!”
"Come! Do it for the sake of no regrets!"
After saying that, Chang Sheng raised his head and drank it all in one gulp.
The players of the Chinese national team looked at each other.
At this time, Gao Hongbo also stood up, also holding a wine glass, and said to his players: "Didn't you hear? No regrets for this Asian Cup, just do it!"
After saying that, he, a shy person, raised his head and drained the wine in his glass.
Wei Shaohui and other members of the coaching staff also stood up and did it.
Following their lead, all the players of the Chinese national team also stood up, raised their glasses, and drank.
When they drank the juice, they felt their throats burn, as if they were drinking soju instead of juice.
Then they felt warm blood rising in their bodies.
In order not to leave any regrets for my career or the career of the national team in this Asian Cup, I will fight hard this time!
Let’s not think about what the final result will be. We work hard one game at a time! One fight is enough to make a profit, two people fight to the death and we make a profit. The more we fight, the more we earn!

After the dinner, Gao Hongbo found Chang Sheng: "Thank you, Lao Chang."
"Hi, what can I say thank you for?" Chang Sheng waved his hand, looking nonchalant.
"You provided us with a venue, guided our training, and connected us with high-level warm-up match opponents...and now you also help me boost my morale and mobilize before the war...and you do this without any compensation...I
I really don’t know what to say anymore.”
Chang Sheng smiled: "Do you still remember the first time we met, Lao Gao? In the restaurant in Formello, I decided to let you come to Lazio to work and study. You asked me why I did this regardless of reward, and how did I do it?
Did you answer?"
Gao Hongbo nodded: "I remember, of course I remember. That was the first time I saw you lose your temper."
Chang Sheng smiled and said with emotion: "Yeah, gaffe... Anyway, I am also Chinese. Although I have been in Europe, I love my motherland. I am still a football coach, so I hope the football in my motherland is good.
Even if it's just a little bit, even if it's just temporary, I hope it gets better. I didn't have the ability to help it before, but now that I have the ability, I should do these things. Let me be more utilitarian, Lao Gao. We
When the country's football is well done and the fans are happy, those of us who rely on football for a living... can live a prosperous life!"
Gao Hongbo was also amused by Chang Sheng's last words. "You are telling the truth. I understand. Although you don't expect anything in return, I personally still want to thank you."
Chang Sheng patted him on the shoulder: "Do a good job in Qatar. Don't be afraid of the host. That game is a rare training opportunity for the Chinese team. Your team will learn how to compete in adversity. This is better than the Asian Cup champions."
Everything is still important. Come on."
Gao Hongbo nodded vigorously.
"Maybe we can't put Chinese football on a correct development path, but I think through the efforts of us people, we can at least bring some happiness to Chinese fans, and that's enough. Chinese fans are so disappointed.
There are so many tears, they should smile."
Chang Sheng squeezed Gao Hongbo's shoulders hard and finally said this.
※ ※ ※
Two days later, Gao Hongbo and his national team bid farewell to Lazio, left Rome, Italy, and flew to Qatar.
They will fight for their country.
Chang Sheng, on the other hand, started his own vacation - the family left Rome and returned to China, where they visited his mother's hometown. After all, the child has grown up and has not been back yet.
This is a trip to visit relatives in China.
The relatives in Chang Sheng's mother's hometown were very enthusiastic, especially Chang Sheng, who was the most famous person in their family and the most promising backer. He also took a beautiful foreign star as his wife.
So relatives from far away came to join in the fun.
In the past few days, Avril Lavigne has really experienced a Chinese-style "Celebrating the New Year".
After staying in their hometown for ten days, the family of five returned to Rome, Italy.
Her parents continue to help Chang Sheng take care of their children in Rome, while Avril Lavigne is about to start preparing for her new song.
In the past two years, she has not given up music in her spare time, and will write some songs and play them.
However, her music style has changed now. After having children, she began to incorporate more tenderness into her original rock style.
Every time she wrote a new song, she would sing it to Chang Sheng, and Chang Sheng thought it sounded pretty good.
This made Avril full of confidence, and she decided to wait until her son was one year old to start working hard for her comeback.
Although their family no longer needs her to make money to support their family.
But music is Avril's hobby, and she won't give it up.
And Chang Sheng has to put in intense work.
He has a great idea, but it is not easy to realize it. It is like a flower that must be watered with sweat before it can bloom.
ps:
Seeing that Chang Sheng has said so much from his heart, can you give me a few monthly passes?
