Chapter 235 Mr. Long Where Are You Going?
"Crack crackle crackle..."

At the post-match press conference, Oman coach Hamad, who had previously threatened to "fed China five goals", did not even appear at the press conference. He only dared to send his assistant coach to deal with the ridicule and ridicule of the media.

The Chinese captain, who only played 10 minutes off the bench but undisputedly took the honor of the best player of the game, became the focus of the venue.

It may be an exaggeration to say that it is the focus, because Oman does not have any high-profile local media, and the losers are not in the mood to listen to the winners "boasting".

So this press conference turned into an exclusive interview with Chinese journalists asking the Chinese captain...

"I'm Liu Jiayuan, a reporter from CCTV." The young commentator here played a guest role as a reporter. "The progress of this game is a bit thrilling, but fortunately we won the final victory. Can you tell me about your feelings?"

This is one of the most frequently asked questions, and Captain Long, who has been serving as Ajax's press spokesman in recent years, is of course familiar with it:
"Given the strength gap between the Chinese team and the Oman team, the two rounds of the game should not have been so hard. Although I joined the team for a short time, I can also see that my teammates are working hard. Everyone is very eager to win. But maybe because of too much pressure and too much mental burden, it is difficult for them to display their true strength in the game."

I also want to say that the reason why this game was able to win is because we changed our style of play compared to the first game. We no longer pursue too fine ball control and cooperation, but put more emphasis on physical confrontation. Better use of height advantage, which is the key to our upper hand.

In addition, Team Li, who temporarily directed the game, grasped the timing of the substitution very well. He sent me on the field when the Oman team's physical fitness was at a critical point, and used my personal ability to strengthen their defense. Suddenly, it has received excellent results, ah, I won’t be described as an arrogant person by you if I am so self-proclaimed? "

The Chinese reporters present all laughed.

They'd love to tell the guy on stage:
In this Olympic team, only you are qualified to be arrogant.

But Li Bing was quite at ease in his heart:

Captain Long is very face-saving. He obviously stood up and applied to play on his own initiative, but he still didn’t forget to give me a share of the credit... Fortunately, I saw the situation early and hugged his thigh. A good fruit to eat?
Just listen to this arrogant guy continue to analyze

"If I was replaced in the midfield, I am afraid that there would be no role as a surprise soldier. Instead, a loophole would be formed due to the lack of cooperation between me and other teammates; if the replacement was later, Oman might equalize the game and I would lose my playing. significance."

Then Long Shute changed the subject:
"Director Li's on-the-spot command ability is not inferior to Coach Bu's at all, and he is flexible in mind and knows how to adapt to changes. He has high prestige in teams of all ages. Compared with some foreign coaches, he also understands the mentality of Chinese players better. , if there is an emergency, he can communicate better with the players, so as to convey the tactical changes to the whole team as soon as possible..."

Li Bing quickly put away his smile and put on a modest and cautious look, but his heart burst into laughter even more.

The reporters gradually understood the truth.

This captain... is trying to pick things up?
Isn't what he said at the end just criticizing Blazevic for not being good enough?

Liu Jiayuan wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, and changed the subject:
"The National Olympic Games has now officially entered the top [-] of the Asian qualifiers. Teams from Japan, South Korea, Australia, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Iraq, Uzbekistan, Syria and other teams have also advanced with us. The traditional strong teams in Asia, how confident are you in the face of such a situation?"

"If I remember correctly, based on the current international ranking of the Chinese team, we should be one of the three seeded teams," Long Shute replied with the help of the system's reminder. The two strongest opponents occupy a more powerful position in the group stage. As for confidence? Since you asked me, I can tell you with certainty that the men's football event in the London Olympics has at least one position for the Chinese team."

Those Chinese reporters couldn't believe their ears!

In recent decades, apart from 2008 because of the advantage of the host country, when did the Chinese team enter the main stage of the Olympic Games?

Looking at their expressions, Long Shute laughed:

"More than a month ago, I once said that Ajax could win the Champions League. At that time... the reporters all over Europe seemed to have this expression, but the result? You must know. Well, if there is no problem , then today’s press conference can end.”

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Another reporter quickly raised his hand and stood up:
"Can I ask you a personal question?"

Long Shute glanced at him: "It can only be related to football."

"Uh, well, I originally wanted to ask your girlfriend, if this is the case, forget it..."

The reporter was very knowledgeable, so he sat down obediently.

"Mr. Long, I have one more question, definitely about football."

Another stood up:

"Although the summer transfer window will only open in July, there have been many heavyweight transfers in European football. Can you tell us about your plan?"

"My new contract with Ajax has only been fulfilled for one season. We have just created a series of great results together. Whether it is the coach, the management, or the fans, they are very supportive of me, so I will not force a transfer. meeting."

Long Shute's answer was simply the most official template.

He is not a fool, even to the reporters of his own country, he cannot casually reveal his words.

Although language has national boundaries, but...the morality of a reporter has no bottom line.
-
After the game, the officials headed by Yu Hongchen had a small dinner with Long Shute.

Chinese people always like to talk about business while eating, and this time is no exception.

During the mingling, they have reached a consensus. After returning to China, they will resign the stubborn and inflexible Blazevic, and support Li Bing, a well-received local legend within the Football Association.

The superior leader nodded, the team leader did not object, and the team's only superstar even offered to support him. Li Bing's appointment was almost certain.

On the second day after defeating Oman, Long Shute said goodbye to these teammates of the same age, and flew back to Amsterdam with his two followers.

There is no direct flight from Muscat, the capital of Oman, to Amsterdam. The nearest two routes go through Frankfurt and Munich in Germany respectively. Although it is a little more expensive, Long Shute, who is no longer short of money, of course chooses the most time-saving one. Lufthansa Airlines.

After nearly seven hours of flight, the plane made a one-hour stop at Munich Airport before taking off again.

Some people got off the plane, and some people just got on the plane.

"disturb."

A burly German nodded to him and sat down on the other side of the aisle.

But the German was obviously stunned for a moment, then took out a pamphlet from his document bag, and checked it carefully.

"Sorry to bother you again," he turned sideways toward the aisle, "If I'm not mistaken, you should be Mr. Long Shute?"

German and English have a lot in common, but they are very different in more places. Fortunately, Long Shute has a system that can freely switch between various languages, so he simply switched to German to talk to the other party: "Yes, hello. "

The German guy was a little surprised at his German, then took out a business card from his bag, and handed it over with a smile:

"I'm Christian Neringer, the sporting director of Bayern Munich. Nice to meet you on the plane, Mr. Long."

Long Shute was also slightly taken aback, and then replied with a smile:
"Hello, Mr. Nellinger, are you going to Amsterdam too? Does Ajax still have Bayern's favorite players?"

Nellinger answered him with a serious face:

"Yes, Mr. Long, I hope to have a private discussion with you."

Long Shute pondered slightly, and said:
"If I remember correctly, I was approached by your scouts, but you don't seem to have made an offer to Ajax?"

"It is true, because Bayern is very cautious about every transfer, so they will not make an offer after just one contact."

Nellinger explained very seriously, and he upheld the serious attitude of the Germans:

"And my visit this time is to express the club's attitude more formally. Bayern Munich is eager to get you."

Long Shute nodded noncommittally:

"Then let's talk."
