The coaching career started as a college team coach

"...Now the team captain Edwards and the on-field captain Coady held the trophy together. But they didn't lift it up."

"They directly pulled the head coach Wei Le onto the stage! Wei Le stood in the middle holding the trophy, with Coady and Edwards on the left and right."

"It seems they are ready! So let us welcome the 2016-2017 season, the champion team of the English Championship League - Wolverhampton Wanderers - Wolves with warm applause!!!"

In the video, the trophy was held high by three people, golden ribbons rose from behind, and flames and fireworks rose around the Molineux Stadium.

The pale yellow smoke with the pungent smell of burning floated on the football field. This is the home of Wolves, and this is the home of the English Championship champion!

"After winning the championship ahead of schedule, Wolves made a wide range of adjustments to the lineup. The starting lineup for the last three games was basically all substitutes, and many young players from the youth team also got the opportunity to play and experience the game."

"But the results were still good. They first won a 1-0 victory over Huddersfield Town, then were tied 1-1 by Derby County, and in the last game, they defeated Preston 2-0."

"In the end, their points were fixed at 110 points. With the highest points in the past five years, they entered the Premier League as the champions of the English Championship."

"It can be said that everything started in the summer of 2015 when the new head coach of Wolves, Wei Le, took office. The young head coach who won the trust of the Chinese board of directors changed everything."

"The growing attendance at Molineux Stadium witnessed the growth of Wolves."

"Just like Wei Le said after the game in which he won the championship ahead of schedule That way - 'Please get used to the feeling of winning the championship, because Wolves will not stop'!"

"A few years ago, the championship miracle created by Leicester City is still vivid. Now, the Premier League is no longer an old antique belonging to the BIG6. More dynamic lower-level league teams are fighting for this highest stage in England."

"Leicester City tells us that nothing is impossible. And this year's Wolves tell us that youth is full of infinite vitality!"

"After all, the Premier League and the Championship are not the same concept. There are also many experiences of newly promoted teams being beaten in the Premier League that tell us that not everyone can stay in the Premier League."

"Maybe Wolves will also worry about how to stay in the Premier League next year, but Coach Wei may not think about these annoying problems for the time being, because now is the time to celebrate..."

Wei Le paused the video playing on the computer.

He raised the cup and took a sip of the green tea in the cup (not an advertisement, but Cuiquan Hefeng tea is really delicious. During the final exam period, the author just had a cup of tea in the morning to continue the day, hehe), raised his hand to pick up the medal from the table, and stroked the engraved pattern on it.

If it weren't for this medal and this video, I would probably think that the experience of the past few days was an unreal dream when I woke up.

Today is May 10th, and the season is over.

But there is still more than a month before the transfer window opens on July 1st. Wolves have no intercontinental competition arrangements, so the players have already returned to their respective homes.

The coaching staff is also making a final summary, and they can take a vacation until June and regroup.

When the plane landed on the runway of the Capital Airport, Wei Le felt the vibration of the main wheels of the plane touching the ground, and then realized that he was going home now.

After leaving his motherland for nearly two years, Wei Le finally returned home.

As he thought, no one knew about his return to China, and of course there were no large numbers of fans coming to the airport to greet him. So he walked to the arrival floor of Terminal T3 with ease, and opened the door of a taxi in the taxi hall filled with a somewhat unpleasant smell of gasoline.

Taxi drivers in Beijing have always been talkative, especially those waiting for work at the airport. Generally speaking, their eloquence skill points should be maxed out.

Wei Le happened to be not a social phobic, so he chatted with the driver. As they chatted, they somehow talked about football.

"Chinese football is still not doing well." The driver sighed, "The Beijing team is still in the same state, and the national team is still in the same state."

Wei Le just shook his head and sighed, saying nothing. He was developing abroad and didn't know much about China. The news he got was from Han Yang and Cai Huiqiang in Shanghai, so he couldn't comment.

"You said you were working in football abroad?" The driver looked at Wei Le sideways, a little surprised, "Chinese people working in football abroad, it's quite difficult, isn't it? "

"It's okay, as long as you get used to it." Wei Le chuckled.

"Hey, can I ask what kind of work you do?" The driver was getting more and more confused, and took advantage of the red light to carefully look at Wei Le's face, "Hiss, hey..."

"You are not... Wei Le?" The driver asked tentatively.

Wei Le scratched his head and smiled. He wanted to answer "Who is Wei Le", but then he thought that it was useless to hide it from the other party. So he admitted it generously.

"Yes, I am Wei Le."

"Fuck! ! ! ! ”

The taxi moved forward steadily in the crowded traffic on the airport highway, but the driver was very excited. Since he became a taxi driver, he has basically met all kinds of customers, but he has never picked up a celebrity.

This time, not only is it a celebrity, but it is also a rising star of Chinese football coach, Wei Le!

"Well, well, well..." The driver didn't know what to say for a moment, "Then don't pay when you get off the car, just think of it as me treating you to a ride."

Wei Le smiled and rejected the other party's kindness, "No. Thank you for your kindness, but you still have to pay."

"No, really no." The driver shook his head.

"I understand that you may not know what you have brought to Chinese fans, so it is difficult for you to understand my feelings." The driver looked at the gradually crowded traffic ahead and complained, "Damn, the evening rush hour has begun."

"I really like football. I played football when I was a child. I was almost asked by the original Beijing Tenglong team, but I went to school later. ”

“I don’t have any hobbies in my life, and I don’t dare to have any hobbies that cost money. I’m destined to be poor.” The driver grinned at Wei Le, “You have to understand that my wife doesn’t let me spend more money.”

“But the only thing is football, no one can stop it.”

“The teams I support this year have performed mediocrely, and it has been like this for the past few years. The Beijing Tenglong team is still the same. The Chinese national team has changed coaches one by one, and there is no hope of revival. It is still the same old guys. ”

“This year, the Chinese Super League said that it would invest in introducing high-level players, but I think it’s nonsense. It will not be glorious for a few years.”

“I have watched football for decades, and we have not done anything practical in this regard. If everyone is floating in the air, illusory, then the unattainable goal of the World Cup is impossible from the beginning.”

“Then one of my football friends told me that the coach of our country has become the head coach of the English Championship!”

“I said you are talking nonsense. I don’t even know what level our coach is?”

“Guess what happened? "The driver turned his head and asked Wei Le with a smile. Wei Le shook his head to indicate that he didn't know. The driver laughed, "I really envy that old man. He went directly to England, to your Wolverhampton, to watch your game!"

"Ah!" Wei Le was shocked.

"He just wanted to verify the level of this Chinese head coach. If he was really awesome, he wanted to see what high-level football was like."

"Then he came back, was silent on the phone with me for three minutes, and said two words to me."

"What words?" Wei Le asked at the right time.

The driver grinned and gave a thumbs up - "Awesome."
