Chapter 1 The Call of the First Team
Rudy González Diaz's bewildered expression is clearly visible on the TV screen as the director gave him a temporary assistant to direct the Getafe game in place of Juan Antonio Zamora Sambudio A close-up of a coach.
The commentator is sighing: "Rudy Gonzalez Diaz's expression is really the best portrayal of Getafe at the moment!"
Chang Sheng watched Getafe's first-team league matches in front of the TV.
Getafe is currently in the relegation zone. As a member of Getafe, he is naturally concerned about the performance of Getafe's first team.
He led the team to finish the C team game yesterday, and under his command, C team won.
But the prospects for Getafe's first team are not so good.
The score on the field was 3:0. According to international practice, the home team is in front and the visiting team is behind. Unfortunately, Getafe is the visiting team in this game.
"Juan Zamora was suddenly dismissed by the club two days ago-in fact, it can't be said to be sudden. With his achievements in leading the team, everyone has long guessed when they will be dismissed...but everyone still didn't expect it. The Getafe club will choose to announce this decision suddenly before the game, it seems that they can't bear it with the incompetent Zamora..."
"As Zamora's assistant, Rudy Gonzalez Diaz took over as head coach on an interim basis, and now everyone is guessing who Getafe will choose to officially take over the role..."
The game on the court was very boring. Although there were still 30 minutes before the end of the game, any fool could see that Getafe's situation was over. So the commentator also took his attention away from the game and began to introduce gossip news about Getafe's recent personnel changes.
"But for those coaches, the position of Getafe's head coach is a hot potato. Excluding this game, the league has already played 30 rounds, and Getafe only has 26 points, ranking last Second. Seeing that next season is going to play in the second group B (that is, the third group, according to the name of the Spaniards, it should be the second group B)... Who wants to stay on a ship that is destined to sink? "
As an insider of the Getafe club, Chang Sheng is very clear about this matter.
Getafe has fired two head coaches this season for one reason-too poor results.
Juan Lopez persisted until January, because the team's performance slipped again and again, and was driven away by Flores. Juan Zamora was originally the head coach of the B team and was replaced. He did not expect to be inferior to his predecessor. Lopez and Getafe are at least relegation, and Zamora's Getafe has directly become a relegated team.
And Rudy Gonzalez, who temporarily replaced Zamora, also performed poorly in this game. He almost failed to come up with any effective ways to prevent the team from losing. Thirty minutes before the end of the game, he had already used up two substitutions, but in Chang Sheng's view, these two substitutions were very bad, not only did not work, but also dragged down the team's performance, It was the straw that broke the camel's back.
Chang Sheng really wondered if Rudy Gonzalez was undercover.
This game is considered to be lost. In the 32nd round of the league, Getafe only accumulated 26 points, and the gap between the teams in front is widening.
There are still ten rounds in the league. If they don't make any changes, they will really have to relegate from the Second Division to the Third Division, or it is called "Spanish Football League B Group B".
Although they only came from there a season ago, neither wants to go back.
As the chairman of the club, the only thing Flores can do is to keep changing the head coach.
It's a pity that neither Juan Lopez nor Juan Zamora can bring the team the victory they want.
And the assistant coach of the first team in front of him obviously doesn't have this ability.
Chang Sheng turned off the TV. There is nothing to watch in this game. If it does not turn into a massacre in the end,
It's already considered Getafe's luck.
He sighed. Does he have to become the head coach of a team C of the third team next season?
Although he did a good job in the C team, he had to seriously consider whether he would continue to stay at Getafe.
If Getafe's first team is relegated to West C, as the C team, he will not get even more attention, and it seems that Getafe has nothing to keep him.
He has been at Getafe for six months. During these six months, he gradually became familiar with and learned what a real coach should do.
With the help of Angulo and Segulo, he made full use of the coaching master system to work on the experimental field of the C team.
And the power of the coach master system is also very obvious. By continuously doing tasks to get rewards, the team's training effect will be improved a little bit.
In addition, Chang Sheng also learned how to use game skills to make pre-match arrangements.
The Getafe C team, which was originally little-known, has been thriving under him, and its strength has grown a lot.
Especially Jose Passarella Sancini.
If you want to say that the person who has changed the most in the C team, I am afraid it is him.
The trash who was once ridiculed has now turned into the main central defender of the Getafe C team.
Progress can only be described as "divine speed".
The players of the C team, as well as the two coaches Angulo and Segulo, watched with their own eyes how Jose Passarella grew step by step from a rookie central defender to a main central defender who could play his own role.
He is improving almost every day.
Jose Passarella's progress naturally attracted the attention of the local media in Getafe.
Everyone praised him as Getafe's "true man", a genius that Getafe meets once in ten years.
However, Jose Passarella, who saw the face of the media in Gorka, dismissed the media's praise, and his mentality was very good.
No one knows, even José himself probably doesn't know that he can improve so fast because of Chang Sheng's innate skill [This is how geniuses are made].
Of course, everyone knows that the reason why Jose can be what he is today is inseparable from Chang Sheng. Even though they didn't know about innate skills, they still regarded Chang Sheng as the number one contributor to Jose's success today.
Even with Jose alone, Chang Sheng has already proved his ability, and his resume is really not just made up by himself.
Originally in Getafe, it was a place for Chang Sheng to accumulate experience and learn. Now his purpose has been achieved.
Is it time to change places?
The only thing he can't bear is probably Jose Passarella. This kid is growing up, if he leaves by himself, won't he be unable to improve again? Or progress has slowed.
This is the first player he trained by himself. He devoted a lot of effort to Jose - he resolutely used the skill "This is how geniuses are made" that can only be used on one person. On Passarella, Chang Sheng can be said to have spent a lot of money. He has never done this to other players...
If he really wanted to leave, he would be very reluctant.

In the end, Getafe lost 0:5 in the away game. There was no suspense in the loss. The fiasco of this game also cast a shadow over Getafe's relegation situation.
When Chang Sheng knew the result from the TV news, he didn't even sigh. For Getafe today, this is really not surprising.
It seems that Getafe will definitely be relegated this season.
When the time comes, do I really want to leave?
Chang Sheng was thinking about this when his cell phone rang.
It was Vicente Moscodo, the club's general manager.
"Chang, Mr. Chairman asked you to go to his office tomorrow morning. He has something to look for you."
Moscow hung up the phone after notifying Chang Sheng, without a word of nonsense.
Chang Sheng shrugged and didn't care about the manager's attitude. Ever since the Gorka incident, the club manager has always treated him like this. This was even the first time he called Chang Sheng in five months.
Chang Sheng doesn't care about the manager's attitude, what he cares about is why the club chairman is looking for him at this time.
More than five months have passed since that game.
Getafe quickly released Gorka Alonso Basel and his father.
It was later heard that Gorka went to Atletico Madrid's C team.
After that, Chang Sheng never heard any news about this young man. Just like in his previous life, he disappeared into the vast crowd.
As for Chang Sheng himself, he also worked as the head coach of Getafe C team for six months.
Although he stayed in Team C for a long time, as long as six months, Chang Sheng himself did not complain. He was very calm.
Because he knew that this would be the last youth team he coached, and it was absolutely impossible for him to coach the C team in the future. Only the C team will have such a small pressure, allowing him to grow up calmly, gradually learn and adapt to real professional football.
When he was slowly growing and learning in the C team, whether it was Juan Lopez or Juan Zamora, he was under tremendous pressure and boos in the Getafe first team, and he lost sleep every night.
He can see the two coaches getting more and more haggard every day on the TV news. Therefore, he especially cherishes his time in the C team.
But after answering the manager's call, a thought suddenly flashed in Chang Sheng's mind.
Maybe that time will never come back...
※※※
After living in Getafe for six months, Chang Sheng has moved out of the dormitory at the Las Margarita Stadium and rented a house in an apartment building on Teresa-Kalcutta Avenue.
Because it is the top floor, the view is excellent. In the house, if you draw the curtains, you can see the Las Margarita Sports City across the street through the window, and the Alfonso Perez Stadium to the left. Take a panoramic view of the Getafe club.
When he has nothing to do, Chang Sheng will look at the huge building complex across the street from here.
In later generations, he didn't have much special impression of Getafe's home court, just one word-small.
The Alfonso Perez Stadium, which can only accommodate 18,000 people, is indeed too small.
But for him at present, it is also a very broad stage.
Today, he stands backstage on that stage - in the office of club president Francisco Flores.
Opposite him is Flores sitting behind the owner's desk, and next to him is the club manager Vicente Moscodo sitting on the sofa.
As the club's manager, Vicente Moscow was much more haggard than when Chang Sheng met him a few months ago.
The team's performance is not good, and it may be relegated at any time. It will be a huge blow to the club's economy and reputation. As a manager, he is also under heavy pressure.
Only Flores still looked expressionless.
He looked at Chang Sheng.
"Now there is a chance, I don't know if you are willing to try it..."
He spoke.
Chang Sheng's breathing slowed down, and he held his breath for fear that if he breathed louder, he wouldn't be able to hear important things.
In fact, he already knew what the chairman asked him to do.
The team just drove away Juan Zamora, and Rudy Gonzalez, who replaced him, proved his incompetence in actual combat. The first team is now in a situation of "no leader" and needs a head coach to host big picture.
Today, Flores found him, and what this meant was already self-evident.
After six months in the C team, he finally had the opportunity to get in touch with real professional football!
Flores continued: "We all see your performance in the C team, Chang. As you said, 'Talent has nothing to do with age', although you are young, you have outstanding talents." ability. The changes in the C team under your leadership have been the most discussed topic in Getafe’s local media during this period. I think it’s time to change your environment. How about it?"
Vicente Moscodo sat on the sofa without any expression change on his face, obviously he already knew the result. But looking at the expression on his face, he didn't seem to agree with this decision very much.
It's a pity that it's not him who makes the decision for the Getafe club now.
Chang Sheng's fist clenched violently, and then loosened it again.
The gate of dreams... is opening before his eyes!
"I am honored to be valued by you, Mr. Chairman." Chang Sheng replied, his voice trembling because of joy and excitement.
Seeing his performance, Vicente Moscodo, who was sitting next to him, frowned—how could such an unstable person lead Getafe out of the quagmire?
According to his initial thoughts, the Getafe club should find a head coach with a reputation, at least one who has proven himself in the professional league.
But Flores insisted on using the Chinese coach.
He thought over and over again in his mind that he had never heard that Mr. Chairman had Chinese relatives...
Because he was upset, Moscow intended to remind the young man not to get carried away, what he was facing was not a good thing.
"Don't get too excited, Chinese. Do you know your goal?"
Chang Sheng turned his head to look at him: "Of course, relegation." The change of coach at this time must be for relegation, otherwise it would be better not to change.
Seeing his indifference, Moscow snorted: "It seems that you are quite confident. But I don't want us to participate in the second division B league next season." Moscow said. "That means there are still ten league rounds left, and you must lead the team to relegation."
Chang Sheng faced the manager, but he didn't show any weakness: "Of course, if even the head coach doesn't have confidence, what's the point of leading the team to relegation?"
"I hope you will do what you say, boy."
"I always keep my word. Do you want to make a bet, Mr. Manager?" Chang Sheng winked at Moscow.
As soon as Moscow heard the word "bet", he immediately thought of that game. His face became very ugly, and he snorted heavily from his nose: "No, I'm not interested!"
Chang Sheng grinned and laughed silently. He doesn't hide his mocking of the manager in front of the manager at all.
Moscow also knows, but in front of the chairman of the club, he is really not easy to get angry, and this kid seems to be very popular with the chairman now. He could only pretend he didn't see it, and at the same time he was ruthless in his heart: Don't let me catch you, kid! After ten rounds, if you relegate Getafe, pack your bags and get out!
Flores watched the confrontation between Chang Sheng and Moscow with great interest.
What an arrogant young man.
There are ten rounds left in the league, the team has only 26 points, morale is low, and injuries are frequent. Under such circumstances, it is not an easy task to lead the team to avoid relegation.
But looking at him, he seems to be full of confidence.
What an interesting man...
