Reborn on Top of Football

"First of all, I would like to thank our president. He has made great efforts for me to join, including persevering to persuade me and him. Before that, he and I, and of course Messi, the three of us had already competed. For almost ten years, it started when I was at Chelsea, then I was in Milan, Munich, and Manchester. We were each other's biggest rivals and imaginary enemies. We would even sleep thinking about how to beat each other. In the most fiercely competitive places Sometimes, we get angry when we mention each other's names because we put too much pressure on each other. So when this situation suddenly requires us to fight side by side, we are both psychologically uncomfortable."

Wang Ai picked up the cup and took a sip of tea: "Just like a colleague of yours who has been in fierce competition with you, and then one day the editor-in-chief said that there is a news that requires the two of you to cooperate. You must be very awkward and worried that the other party will I caused trouble for myself and delayed the work assigned by the editor-in-chief, and so did the two of us."

"What did Mr. Florentino do?"

"A lot. He has experience and knows how to coordinate relationships and get along with big-name players, and how to build trust and close teammate relationships from scratch."

"You mean the Galactic Fleet? Raul and Beckham's era?"

"Yes, this is Real Madrid's fine tradition. Of course other giants will also do it, but Real Madrid is undoubtedly the best at it."

"But it seems like it took him a long time? Like you said, almost seven or eight years? There was news that he invited you during your last two transfers, but your response was very vague. Can you say now? ? Did he invite you? Why didn't you come then? Does this mean his work is not that good? "

"He did invite." Wang Ai nodded affirmatively: "But the opportunity is not mature, because from my point of view, Real Madrid and other clubs that invited me are actually about the same attractiveness to me, or even biased. Low. Other clubs don’t involve too complicated teammate relationships. This is what worries me the most. You know, a team cannot achieve results if it cannot be united.”

Martin asked: "Are you implying that Ronaldo is difficult to get along with?"

Wang Ai smiled: "Do you think I'm easy to get along with, Martin? No! Do you see what my teammates and former teammates say about me? They basically talk about my skills and interesting things in my training, but they are very Talk less about my life, do you understand? The greater your reputation, the stronger the binding force from society, the more and more things you cannot do, and you will inevitably appear more and more unsociable. In this world It doesn’t matter what your nature is in the process,”

Martin shook his head: "I don't understand."

Wang Ai tilted his head: "Surrounded by the demands of sponsors and fans, and determined by their preferences, there are too many things that cannot be done. This will not only make myself uncomfortable, but also make the club and teammates uncomfortable. And what if two such players want to come together? What if their principles conflict? This is the area where Mr. Florentino works hard, he tries his best to reconcile our conflicts of principles and finally make us compromise with each other. , successfully integrated into a team.”

"Your conflict? Can you give an example? Does it mean unlimited fire rights?"

"First of all, I want to explain that unlimited fire power is just an adjective, and it is not really unlimited. It is based on everyone's full trust in your offensive power. Your shooting success rate is the highest, so everyone starts from the team. From the perspective of overall interests, you will be given more free shooting opportunities, and you must also come up with more goals in exchange for more shooting opportunities." Wang Ai gestured: "It's like talking about the fans' expectations of us, Fans watch our games, buy our jerseys, and buy the products we endorse. Subconsciously, they hope that we will continue to excite him. If our performance cannot meet his expectations, he will punish us with money. The team The same goes for the 'unlimited fire rights' granted, we must perform as expected by the authorizer."

"So, is there any conflict between the two of you with unlimited fire rights? This was what the press was talking about after the news came out that you were joining Real Madrid, and it was also what Mellingers were most worried about."

"What's the result?" Wang Ai said with a smile: "Three consecutive championships, right? The two of us actually shared unlimited fire rights, instead of two at the same time. You can tell from the data. In the past three years, we have My goal statistics have declined compared to when we were in the same team. It should be said that my decline has not been much, but his decline has been obvious."

"So..." Martin said hesitantly, "So he made the sacrifice?"

Wang Ai nodded affirmatively: "That's true."

"Wow!" Martin was exaggeratedly shocked: "This is inconsistent with everyone's impression."

Wang Ai shrugged: "Just because he is proud and arrogant does not mean that he is unwilling to sacrifice for the team. These are two problems."

"Okay, so besides unlimited firepower, what else does Mr. Chairman do?"

"With his continuous persuasion and attention, we kept imagining the feeling of being teammates in our minds, from the awkwardness at the beginning to the yearning at the end. As a result, everyone has seen that the two of us accounted for one-third of the team's goals. Second, we cooperated closely with each other, and we created the best period in the history of Real Madrid. In the past three years, have you heard that we had conflicts? Have you seen us insulting each other in the newspapers? Even our fans They’ve all become friendly.”

"Is this why you praised him today? Because you get along well?" Martin suddenly asked sharply.

"No." Wang Ai immediately replied: "I will not lie for him. Anyone who removes personal love and hate will come to the same conclusion as me."

"So, you support his opinion?"

"What?" Wang Ai asked with a smile.

"Of course he thinks he is the best this year? He missed the UEFA awards ceremony for this reason. Do you think so too?"

"I think both the candidate players and the selection team have the right to express their opinions. I support the expression of opinions and have no opinion on the opinions themselves."

"Don't you think you are the best this year? Real Madrid won three consecutive championships and you were the first in goals? You also won the Golden Boot in the World Cup? And it only took 5 games?"

"Everyone thinks they are the best, but some people are willing to say it and some are not."

"So do you think Modric should win the award?"

"His performance is very good. I can completely accept the award." Wang Ai said with a smile: "I am used to retaining the right to express opinions and accepting the selection results."

"Who did you vote for as captain of the Chinese team?"

Wang Ai paused when he heard the sound, tilted his head and exhaled, then looked back at Martin: "C Ronaldo."
