Rebirth 1994: Football Situation

Chapter 482 Dream and Reality

"What did you say? Inter Milan wants to buy Chu Ran? What are you kidding?"

After answering the phone, Pei Wei was in a pretty good mood, and even made a few jokes about Jiang Hao who called, but Jiang Hao almost jumped up with a word: "Inter Milan sent us a A letter... I hope to introduce our goalkeeper Chu Ran."

Pei Wei's reaction was within Jiang Hao's expectations. In fact, when he found out about the news, his reaction was not much better than Pei Wei's. After hearing Pei Wei's words, he couldn't help but sigh: "Boss... Am I kidding about this? I don't want to get fired from you...but it's true and the letter has been faxed to Europe by the club and it's in my arms."

"Okay. I'm staying at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in London... Are you not far away? Let's meet and talk."

In less than half an hour, Jiang Hao arrived - the speed surprised Pei Wei, and he found out after asking that Jiang Hao, who was in Italy, flew directly to London as soon as he received a fax from the domestic club ——Because he knew that Pei Wei was here, he only called Pei Wei after he got off the plane, so naturally he came very quickly.

Before he could say hello to Jiang Hao, Pei Wei directly took the fax from Jiang Hao and read it, while Jiang Hao ordered a cup of coffee and began to drink it.

After reading the entire fax, Pei Wei's face calmed down a bit, he put the fax on the table, and then said to Jiang Hao: "It turns out that Chu Ran's performance in that business game caught the attention of the people from Inter Milan." It’s no wonder that he suddenly made such a request, he really played very well in that game... What do you think about this matter?”

Jiang Hao looked at his boss with a smile: "Boss, my opinion is not important, what matters is your opinion... If you really want me to tell you my way, then my opinion will definitely be the same as yours. Different."

"Then tell me your opinion. I'm not the kind of person who can't tolerate different opinions." Pei Wei laughed: "Although I am the one who makes the final decision, as the transfer manager of Yunjiatianyu, you Your opinion is very important to me.”

"Then I'll say it." Jiang Hao took out a cigarette and put it on: "Boss, I know you only smoke red pandas, so I won't let you... My opinion, I agree with Inter Milan's transfer request."

"Reason." Pei Wei said lightly.

"There are three reasons." Jiang Hao spit out a big smoke ring, and quickly continued: "First, we are partners with Inter Milan, and we have offended them once on the issue of Adriano's transfer. As long as this request is not too excessive, we'd better not refuse, otherwise it will affect the relationship between our two clubs. Over the past few years, Inter Milan has helped us a lot, including some of the training equipment provided by them. Second, if this transfer can be successful, it will also be of great benefit to Yunjiatianyu. Serie A has been the best league in the world for the past ten years, although La Liga and the Premier League are now in the limelight. Very strong, but Serie A still has its unique status in China or in continental Europe. Inter Milan is one of the traditional top three in Italy. Although it has not won the championship in the past ten years, since Ronaldo came to Inter Milan Afterwards, the number of Chinese fans who supported them increased a lot. It is even more meaningful to have players transfer to Inter Milan than Sun Chenghai, Adriano to Arsenal and Nie Fei to Rome! Third, from a technical perspective Look, it is also very helpful for the stability of the team, now we have two young and good goalkeepers, no matter who is put on the bench, it is not fair, and now being able to transfer Chu Ran out just solves it for us It's a difficult problem...so I think it's absolutely advisable to agree to this transfer request."

"You make a lot of sense." Pei Wei nodded: "But..."

"But you don't just think about it from the club." Jiang Hao took his words, Pei Wei was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "How did you know I would say that?"

"Finding out what the boss thinks is a must-do course for subordinates." Jiang Hao shrugged his shoulders: "I have been working under you for not one or two years, if I still don't know some of your thoughts, then it is really a waste of time. "

"Then tell me what I think... If you're right, I'll treat you to a glass of red wine." Pei Wei put his hands behind his head as a pillow, and said with great interest.

"The three reasons I just mentioned are all beneficial to the club...but this matter may not be beneficial to Chu Ran himself." Jiang Hao said calmly: "First, he has already entered the club in Yunjia Tianyu. In the first team, even the main team, but going to Inter Milan, it is impossible to become the main team, and even the first team will not have the opportunity to enter, at most they can play in the reserve team... Isn't it true that a giant like Inter Milan? It is possible to use the precious playing spots to train rookies, unless the rookie is a rare super genius, and although Chu Ran has outstanding ability and is young and mature, Italy is rich in the best goalkeepers in the world. Chu Ran can go to Inter Milan at most. Playing in the reserve team as a young player-this obviously cannot be compared with staying in Yunjia Tianyu. Second, the main goalkeeper of Inter Milan is Toldo who played as well as God in the 2000 European Championship. He is also Italy's No. 29 national goalkeeper. Judging from the position of goalkeeper, he is only [-] years old this year and he will have at least four or five years of peak time. It is difficult for Chu Ran to compete with him. It is estimated that the best situation is Being loaned to other teams, the worst is that he may spend a considerable period of time on the bench. Without the training of the game, he will probably never make any progress... In short, going to Inter Milan , It may not be a good thing for Chu Ran, he will lose his main position and rich income, and he may even lose precious opportunities to practice in games, which can be regarded as a hundred harms and no benefit."

Pei Wei nodded. Jiang Hao's words were in his heart. For Chinese players, especially now that the domestic league has developed to a relatively mature level, it may not be a good thing to go abroad blindly. Moreover, with the current overall level of Chinese players, it will be a very difficult test for future development if they want to reach the top in one step and enter the giants. Are you happier than playing the main player in Team B?

What's more, the place Chu Ran is going to is Inter Milan-Pei Wei clearly knows that Toldo will occupy the position of Inter Milan's main goalkeeper for at least four to five years, until Mancini takes office. It will be replaced by Brazilian goalkeeper Cesar, and Cesar's performance is exceptionally good. It can be said that Chu Ran basically has no chance to play the main force in Inter Milan-Inter Milan wants to buy Chu Ran just because they are young. It’s just the habit of casting the net among the players—Inter Milan’s youth department has always been very good. They have hundreds of football schools around the world, and they provide many outstanding young players every year. However, these young players can There are very few players who play the main force in Inter Milan.

With Inter Milan's reserves in the goalkeeper position, it is really difficult for Chu Ran, who has inherent physical conditions that cannot make up for shortcomings, to compete.

"But boss, I think we should listen to Chu Ran's own opinion on this matter..." Jiang Hao chose his words cautiously: "I know you are doing it for Chu Ran's own good, but is this matter true? Should he make his own decision?"

"What you said is also reasonable, so how about you tell Chu Ran about this, and then the club will issue a ticket for him to come here to find me... I think he should be able to think it through when he has time on the road, after all His way needs to be controlled by himself." Pei Wei nodded.

**************************************
"I want to go to Inter Milan!"

When Chu Ran appeared in front of Pei Wei, this usually proud and dishonest young man said to the boss in front of him in an unprecedented tone of affirmation.

Pei Wei looked at Chu Ran's expression carefully, and he was sure that Chu Ran did not make this decision for the sake of some so-called fame - because going to Inter Milan would at least cause great financial losses for Chu Ran, Last year, Chu Ran’s salary was 50 RMB. As he becomes the main force, this salary will definitely increase. With bonuses and other things, his annual income of millions is not a problem, and the invitation letter from Inter Milan clearly states it. , is to invite Chu Ran to join the team as a young player, which means that his income is the same as that of ordinary reserve team young players. It is impossible to earn more in Yunjia Tianyu!
"Tell me your reason." Pei Wei pondered for a while, and finally spoke.

"I know that for me personally, leaving Yunjiatianyu to join the Inter Milan youth team means that I will give up the domestic future and the economic benefits that are already on track and choose an unknown and dangerous path, but I still want to Try it! I have always thought that I am the best goalkeeper, and I want to develop in Italy, which can train the best goalkeepers, even if I have to bear serious consequences for this!" Chu Ran said firmly: "But this The choice does not mean that I have no feelings for Yunjiatianyu! In fact, if Yunjiatianyu only has me as a reliable goalkeeper, I will definitely not leave! But now, my departure is actually good for the club. Chen Wei's performance is worthy of the position of the main force!"

Pei Wei opened his mouth, but suddenly found that he had nothing to say. In the end, he only said one sentence: "Have you considered it clearly? Which one do you choose between dreams and reality? Choose dreams, and you may lose everything. Choose Reality, no matter how bad it is, it won’t be so bad.”

"I've thought about it." Chu Ran said affirmatively, "I choose my dream."

PS: To be honest, from my personal point of view, Chu Ran’s choice is very unrealistic... But I think, with Chu Ran’s character in the book, he will still make such a choice. Let me ask you a question, if You are Chu Ran, what would you choose?Is it possible to lose all the ideals, or is it the reality that no matter how bad it is, it will not go anywhere?

This kind of choice is actually a choice that is often encountered in life. If it were me, I would choose reality, because my character is really unwilling to take risks. Even if I am poor, as long as I am stable, it is enough.
