Chapter 1161 Gao Hongbo's Gratitude
The warm-up match between the Chinese team and New Zealand was held at the Zhuankou Sports Center in Wuhan.

Only 2 minutes into the game, the Chinese team took the lead, and the goal was... Rongguang!
In the corner kick, Deng Zhuoxiang's corner kick was headed into the goal by Rong Guang.

Among a large group of tall New Zealand defenders, Rong Guang still grabbed the point accurately, and his height after jumping was not inferior to those New Zealand defenders at all.

This ball fully embodies his super bouncing ability and header ability.

Rongguang's goal ignited the enthusiasm of fans in Wuhan Zhuankou Sports Center.

The stadium that can accommodate 6 people is almost full, and now these fans wearing red jerseys all jumped up from their seats in the stands, and then raised their arms and shouted.

The momentum made the visiting New Zealand team mistakenly think that this is not a warm-up match, but a World Cup qualifier...

※※※

After Rongguang scored a goal, he didn't show his face much in the offense, but hid himself in the whole team, and began to use his running position and passing more to help the team sort out the offense, so that the overall operation of the Chinese team became smoother.

It's all the same as in the Asian Cup.

Although the number of Rongguang's shots has decreased, the atmosphere of the stadium has not weakened at all.

Under the leadership of Rong Guang, every time the Chinese team plays a wonderful cooperation, no matter whether it is successful or not, it will attract cheers from the fans in the stands.

Before they just saw the Chinese team play this way in the Asian Cup in front of the TV.

This time they saw the cooperation of the Chinese team at the scene, only to realize that it was so exciting and shocking...

So the fans were very excited, and they were still playing the Mexican wave in the stands.

It was impossible for Chinese fans to watch the Chinese team's games in such a leisurely and unrestrained way before. They would only shout "Football Association idiots!" and "Chinese team idiots!" in the stands.

And now, since Milutinovic introduced the concept of "happy football" to China, except for the one that entered the World Cup in 2001, Chinese football has once again made people feel "happy"...

※※※

New Zealand faced the Chinese team, which controlled the ball, and relied on their physical advantages to fight. However, the Chinese players who played against Uzbekistan and Australia in the Asian Cup have accumulated experience in facing this style of football.

In the second half, Gao Lin scored the second goal for the Chinese team.

Then New Zealand used a corner kick to get back a goal.

However, before the end of the game, Hao Min, who came off the bench for the Chinese team, rewritten the score to 3:1.

The Chinese team easily won the warm-up match.

Rong Guang played the whole game and contributed a goal.

Although there were no assists, his shadow actually appeared in the other two goals of the Chinese team.

Just like Manchester City scored Manchester United's second goal, Rong Guang himself did not assist, but helped the team score.

※※※

After the game against New Zealand, Deborah's negotiations also achieved results.

The two sides reached an agreement on some cooperation related to Chinese football.

Rong Guang will provide his Gordo training camp to help the Chinese Football Association train young players. The young players selected by the Chinese Football Association will stay in the training camp and train for free.

Secondly, Rongguang also promised to use his connections and influence in European football to help young Chinese players enter European clubs.In addition, at least one European training camp will be provided for Chinese national teams at all levels in the Gordo training camp every year, and at least two warm-up games will be arranged for each training camp.

Deborah reported all these things to Rong Guang on the phone.

Then she said to Rong Guang: "I think we should set up a company in the sports industry, Rong. Otherwise, it will be inconvenient to operate these things."

Rong Guang has always listened to Deborah's advice on business matters, and he has no objection: "Do it if you think it's necessary, I have no objection."

"Well, we will go directly to Wuhan to sign the contract tomorrow. Besides..." Deborah said. "The boss of Wanda Group is always a fan. He asked me to ask you for a Chinese team jersey signed by you. Is that okay?"

Wanda Group is the company that decided to stay in the Chinese Football Association temporarily.

This company has a deep relationship with football. In the early days of Chinese professional football, they sponsored Dalian football.At that time, the Dalian Wanda team was the overlord of China's A-A, and almost no one could shake their position.Wanda Group has also spread its popularity all over the country by sponsoring football.

Later, due to the harsh environment of Chinese football and the emergence of all kinds of match-fixing and black whistle, Wanda Group’s enthusiasm for football was quickly cooled, and finally they withdrew from Chinese football completely.

Now it seems that they have smelled something, and they have returned to Chinese football again, and they are generous when they make a move. They sponsor the Chinese Football Association for [-] million yuan in three years, from youth football to refereeing... comprehensively help the Chinese Football Association.

If it weren't for Rongguang, I'm afraid they would have changed the head coach of the national team as well.

"Signed jersey? No problem, I will give it to him when signing the contract." Rong Guang agreed immediately. Signed jerseys are not a rare thing for him, and he can have them whenever he wants.

※※※

The next day, Deborah flew to Wuhan together with the person in charge of Wanda Group and their boss, and stayed in the hotel where the Chinese team stayed, so the signing ceremony was very convenient.

Directly in the executive lounge of the hotel, the two parties signed the contract.

After signing the contract, Rongguang gave the China team jersey signed by himself to Mr. Wang, the boss of Wanda Group.

※※※

On the morning before the game, Rong Guang trained in the hotel gym earlier than all his teammates as usual. After training, his clothes were soaked in sweat and he came to the restaurant to prepare for breakfast.

Because it was still too early, there were not many people in the restaurant.

But as soon as Rong Guang entered the restaurant, he saw Gao Hongbo.

Gao Hongbo also saw Rongguang at this time, and he waved to Rongguang: "There is a place here."

Rong Guang walked towards him directly.

"When did you come back, Gao Zhi?" Rong Guang sat down and asked.

"I arrived in Wuhan in the middle of the night yesterday." Gao Hongbo replied with a smile.

"Flying back to Wuhan from Costa Rica is not short...why do you have to make such a fuss?" Rong Guang asked.

"No way, the task assigned by the General Administration of Sports. We helped build that stadium..." Gao Hongbo said. "By the way, this time I went to Costa Rica, the team I took was mainly the national youth team. The under-19 youth team, you were also selected for this level of team back then, and participated in the Dutch World Youth Championship."

Rong Guang nodded.

"But it's a pity that this national youth team did not get a ticket for this year's Columbia World Youth Championship. So this team basically has no major competition tasks. Their next goal is to qualify for the London Olympics."

Gao Hongbo began to introduce the situation of this national youth team to Rongguang.

Although Rong Guang didn't quite understand why Gao Hongbo introduced the National Youth Team to him, he still listened patiently. Anyway, as a player who represented this team in the World Youth Championship, the National Youth Team still has something to do with him.

"Actually, going to Costa Rica this time is a task assigned by the superiors, but if I don't want to go, I don't have to go. After all, the World Cup qualifiers are more important. But I finally agreed to make a trip. Do you know why?" Gao Hongbo got to the point.

Rong Guang shook his head.

"Well, because there is one person in this team that I care a little bit about." Gao Hongbo said. "Wu Lei, a player born in November 1991. He is only 19 years old this year. He has great potential. He can play both forward and offensive midfielder. He is fast and has a good breakthrough ability. He is now in Shanghai East Asia. I selected him into the national team in the East Asia semi-finals at the beginning of last year. But at that time he was still very young, and I only gave him the opportunity to come off the bench in the last game against Hong Kong. See you again this year, he has made great progress..."

After Gao Hongbo introduced the National Youth Team, he introduced this young player named Wu Lei to Rong Guang.

Rong Guang listened quietly.

"He is now playing in the Chinese League One, which is the first level of the Chinese Super League. I am very optimistic about his potential and future achievements, but if he continues to stay in China, his growth prospects will have to be compromised. I hope he can go out early and go to a high-level European place to receive training. Gao Lin went abroad to play football after participating in the World Youth Championship. Now his progress is very obvious, so I hope Wu Lei can also be like Gao Lin."

Speaking of this, Gao Hongbo looked at Rongguang.

Rong Guang understood: "You want me to help him?"

"Yes. I think you have a lot of contacts in Europe. Gao Lin went abroad to play football through your agent..."

"I have no problem here. I also like that the more players we play in Europe, the better. But it still depends on the player's intentions. In addition, whether the club he plays for is willing to let him go is also a problem..."

Rong Guang is not making excuses, what he said is the truth.

When Gao Lin transferred from Shanghai Shenhua to Werder Bremen, it was because the country was unwilling to let people go, and because Gao Lin was going to participate in the National Games, the transfer almost died.

In the end, thanks to Deborah's efforts, the two sides reached an agreement, and Werder Bremen accepted the proposal to let Gao Lin transfer during the winter break. This allowed Gao Lin to stay abroad as he wished, and also achieved a new future for Gao Lin's career.

So if Wu Lei's club is unwilling to let him go, then no matter how hard Rongguang works, it will be useless.

"As for the player, I asked him if he would like to play abroad, and he has no objection. I haven't asked the club's opinion, but I will contact the Shanghai East Asia Club after this warm-up match." Gao Hongbo said.

"That's fine. If you want to ask, just contact me directly. I can do it at any time." Rong Guang agreed immediately, and he was most happy to do things like helping others.

Seeing that Rong Guang agreed, Gao Hongbo nodded: "Thank you!"

"Hey, what's there to thank you for?" Rong Guang waved his hand.

"No, I still have to thank you." Gao Hongbo said seriously.

Rong Guang shrugged.

He thought that Gao Hongbo thanked Wu Lei for this matter, but in fact Gao Hongbo's "thank you" had other meanings.

If Rongguang hadn't spoken up for him at the beginning, he might not be able to sit as the head coach of the national team for long.

So of course I want to thank Rong Guang.

It's just that Gao Hongbo's pride and self-esteem as the head coach made it difficult for him to directly thank Rong Guang for helping him stay in the job, so he made such a big detour...
