In his speech, Tito spared no words of praise to praise Chang Sheng. He said a lot, but in his heart he called him a hypocrite.
But after he finished speaking, everyone still gave him a warm round of applause.
This applause is not for him, but for Chang Sheng.
If they could, they'd give Lotito the middle finger.
But that would make people think that they have a problem with Chang Sheng.
So they could only pretend to smile and applaud.
Amid applause, Lotito announced that the installation ceremony of the Victory Statue had officially begun.
But a minute passed without any movement.
There was no roar of construction machinery, and no statues were seen.
Everyone started to feel strange.
Two minutes later, there was still no movement.
Everyone looked around, looking for the statue.
Even the guests who were invited to the installation ceremony were surprised and looked at each other.
In the end, everyone threw their wooden pipes at Lotito.
I saw Lotito still standing with a smile on his face, not feeling that this was actually embarrassing at all.
The reporters who were invited were thinking faster. They had already begun to wonder if there was any conspiracy here.
Because judging from the expressions of Lotito and Chang Sheng, Chang Sheng was also surprised.
It's just that he didn't go back and forth to find his statue like the others, but stood quietly next to Lotito.
But everyone saw the confused look on his face.
So could this be a conspiracy by Lotito? He used the excuse that there was some kind of statue placement ceremony, but in fact there was no such thing!
He asked Chang Sheng to come here and summoned so many people. Was he just trying to embarrass Chang Sheng?
But...it doesn't make sense. Is the relationship between Lotito and Chang Sheng so bad that they want to deliberately embarrass each other?
Is Lotito's mind still normal? What good will this do to him? Yes, he can humiliate Chang Sheng as much as he wants, but who will dare to be a coach under him in the future? Chang Sheng has such outstanding achievements, in
If a head coach with outstanding reputation among the fans can be humiliated by him, what does it matter to others?
In addition, he used this method to humiliate Chang Sheng and also humiliate the Lazio fans who were already very dissatisfied with him. He was declaring war on the Lazio fans!
What good will this do to him?
Lotito is a businessman. A businessman pursues maximizing profits. Whatever he does, he must first consider whether it is of any benefit to him. He will definitely not do anything that is not beneficial.
So what can he gain by humiliating Chang Sheng in front of 100,000 people?
The media can't figure it out.
It seems that this conspiracy theory can only be their wild guess.
Originally, when it was said that the statue was going to be installed, the square became quiet, and everyone was waiting for the statue of Chang Sheng to appear - before, Lazio Club had not disclosed any information about the statue of Chang Sheng, whether it was material or size.
The most important shape of the statue was not mentioned, and naturally it was not revealed.
So everyone is very curious to see what the statue of Chang Sheng will look like.
As a result, after waiting for more than two minutes, I still didn't see the shadow of the statue.
Whispering sounds began to appear in the square. The sound soon swept the entire place and became louder and louder.
It seems that everyone's patience is running out.
Fans organized by the "Overthrow Lotito's Tyranny Network" raised their banners again, and the chants of "Lotito get out" became louder.
But at this moment, a sudden roar came, covering up their shouts!
The sound came from above everyone's head, and everyone couldn't help but look up in the direction of the sound.
At first there was nothing in the sky, the sun was shining brightly, and there were no abnormalities in the blue sky and white clouds.
But soon they discovered that the roar was getting louder and louder, and the roar sounded like the sound of some kind of propeller rotating at high speed.
At this moment, a behemoth slowly appeared behind the tall outer wall of Wanda Stadium - a heavy-duty helicopter rose from behind the outer wall and appeared in front of everyone's eyes, frightening these people into stunned silence!
A helicopter came to place the statue?
What does this mean?
The helicopter continued to fly, and everyone saw that the steel rope held under the helicopter was rising again. The thing pulled by the steel rope finally came out - a statue covered with red silk and its base was at the end of the steel rope.
!
There was a sound of inhalation at the scene - the statue was hoisted and installed by helicopter... This kind of thing has never happened to other teams, right?
Lotito is such a generous person!
If it weren't for the fact that the relationship between the two of them had broken down, this scene would be really touching enough to bring tears to the eyes, right?
The camera responsible for the live broadcast immediately cut the lens to Chang Sheng and pushed a close-up shot to see Chang Sheng's expression.
Chang Sheng looked back at the sky, with a surprised expression on his side face - he was also frightened.
※※※
Next, with the assistance of ground commanders, the helicopter slowly adjusted its attitude, direction and height at low altitude, and then placed the statue on the prepared foundation bit by bit.
During the whole process, the helicopter's propeller rotated at high speed and the air flow caused everyone's hair to be scattered and their clothes to fly.
Some people even covered their eyes with their hands to avoid being blinded by the gray.
During the installation process, except for a moment when the helicopter came out, it was very quiet at other times!
After the helicopter placed the statue, it slowly flew away, and the roar gradually faded away.
Everyone's hair was completely messed up.
Ground workers are doing the final installation work.
There was still some time before the actual arrangements were made, so Lotito invited Chang Sheng to come on stage to say a few words.
Chang Sheng didn't refuse and took the microphone from Lotito's hand.
When he got the microphone, there was a huge cheer, and the fans who were targeting Lotito stopped booing, singing, and making noise.
The cheers lasted for a minute before ending.
Chang Sheng took the microphone and started talking.
"I am very happy that so many people can come to participate in this ceremony. You are the eternal treasure of my 17 years of coaching at Lazio, far better than those championship trophies."
Just after he said something, he was interrupted by cheers again.
Chang Sheng stopped again and waited for them.
It will be shorter this time.
"We have a saying in China, 'There is no such thing as a banquet that never ends.' It means that no matter how exciting and lively a banquet is, no matter how happy everyone is, it will always end. This is a natural law, I think.
Sometimes, we are no match for time."
Someone started shouting below: "Don't leave, Chang! Don't leave!"
Chang Sheng pretended not to hear and continued: "But fortunately, I have been with you and Lazio for the past seventeen years. I am very happy that I chose Lazio instead of anything else."
Premier League teams…”
Thunderous applause.
After the applause subsided, Chang Sheng continued: "For this, I think I must thank Mr. Lotito, the president of Lazio Club, and the most successful and greatest president in history!"
Chang Sheng said this and turned around and bowed to Lotito.
Lotito's expression was one of surprise, not just as simple as an accident, but a flattered one.
He didn't expect that Chang Sheng would give him such a big face in front of 100,000 people when people outside were scolding him at this time.
"The most successful and greatest president in the history of Lazio Club", such a title sounds... really good!
Chang Sheng's approach also surprised others. They all thought that even though Chang Sheng had nothing to do with Lotito on the surface, he must hate Lotito very much in his heart - he has such deep feelings for Lazio, and Lotito
Tito didn't let him stay, wouldn't he hate it?
And with his always-victorious temper, how could he possibly give Lotito a good look?
Unexpectedly, Chang Sheng would give Lotito such a high evaluation in public!
Is he not crazy?
Didn't you suffer any pressure or coercion?
※※※
Chang Sheng ignored those surprised looks and continued: "Although I always have to say goodbye, at this time, I only want to keep those beautiful memories. Just like this statue!"
Chang Sheng ended his very brief speech.
At this time, the installation work of the statue was completely completed.
Workers removed the fence.
Chang Sheng and Lotito walked to the statue and held up a red rope.
This is the most exciting time.
The statue of Chang Sheng will meet the majority of fans, so what does this statue look like?
This is the first question in most people's minds.
Chang Sheng and Lotito, who were holding the rope, followed the base of the statue so they could see each other.
Suddenly they looked at each other and smiled in tacit understanding, and then pulled the rope in their hands at the same time.
The red silk covering it fell down.
The true form of the statue appeared in front of everyone.
When everyone saw this statue, tears suddenly overflowed from their eyes!
At this time, they no longer care about the relationship between Lotito and Chang Sheng, nor do they care about hypocrisy or not.
They were simply moved by this statue.
None of them expected that Lotito would choose such a winning image in the end!
Some people even had a huge question in their minds when they saw this statue showing its true form - Do Lotito and Chang Sheng really have a grudge?
If so why would Lotito do this?
This is really confusing...
One hundred thousand Lazio fans all cheered and clapped their hands desperately.
Even the fans who wanted Lotito to get out were clapping, cheering and whistling for this scene.
If you want to give an image to Chang Sheng outside the Wanda Stadium, there is no more appropriate action than this!
On the two-meter-high marble base is a bronze statue that is one-to-one in size with a real person.
Chang Sheng, who was made of bronze, stood on the same spot, raising his right hand high, and the top right hand was clenched into a fist!
Seeing this statue, people seemed to be transported back to the first Roma derby played by Lazio under the winning leadership. This is how he stood in the center circle and provoked more than 60,000 Roma fans in the audience!
From that moment on, the entire Lazio fans accepted such an arrogant head coach from the bottom of their hearts and believed that he was the person they had been waiting for!
