Chapter 80 Taking Advantage of Others (4/136)
Because there is no need to prepare for the Copa del Rey interspersed in the league, Valencia now has a clear goal, which is the league.
And it is the twentieth round of the league, away to Real Madrid.
For this game, Chang Sheng even used the first two rounds of the league as a warm-up game to adjust the state of the players.
The purpose is to make the players in the best condition when playing against Real Madrid.
In the eighteenth round of the league, Valencia played against Malaga at home.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic got the chance to play because Villa was injured.
And he himself is also very competitive, scoring goals in this game, scoring in two consecutive games, and his recovery is very fast.
※※※
After the game against Malaga, Christmas and New Year ushered in.
La Liga is suspended and La Liga enters the winter break.
This winter break is only a short ten days, but for the players who have played for half a season, it is a rare opportunity to rest.
The team's performance this year is very good, and the Valencia club is also very interested in having a Christmas dinner.
After playing Malaga, the whole team got together, and the club chairman Otti paid for everyone to eat.
Reporters gathered outside the cafeteria, filming every player who got out of the car and stepped into the restaurant.
The players also stopped wearing training uniforms this day, and they all wore clothes that best showed their figure and demeanor, dressing up like fashion stars.
Then there was the sound of a sudden brake, and a taxi rushed towards it and stopped suddenly at the door of the restaurant.
Then the car door opened, and Chang Sheng got out of the car.
Compared with the players, Chang Sheng's appearance is really inferior.
Because he didn't even have a car of his own.
Some reporters couldn't help poking their lips—it's too... so what's the matter with such an important occasion as the Christmas dinner? You can follow the cars of other coaches!
When the taxi appears,
The reporters thought it was the players of Team B and Team C. Because only those players with low income will choose to take a taxi. In fact, not many players from Team B and Team C came here by taxi...
Cars in Spain are not expensive, especially Japanese cars like Toyota, because they are cheap. Economical and fuel-efficient, it sells particularly well here.
Spain's economic situation is average, but the Spaniards have a good face. So almost every family has a car. They can live in cramped dwellings, but when they walk out of the house, they can easily take out the keys of Audi cars from their pockets.
Because it is really convenient and cheap to buy a car in Spain.
You only need to go to the car dealership to pay a few hundred euros and a registration fee of tens of euros. You can drive away a valuable car.
For example, if you want to buy a BMW car, you only need to pay Euros before you die, and you can drive it home, and everything else is a bank loan. It can also be returned within three years, or replaced with other BMW series.
So in the car park of the Spanish football club. It is basically an exhibition hall for luxury cars.
Not to mention those famous football stars, Volkswagen, Audi, and BMW are all standard equipment.
Even for young players who have just won a first-team contract, the first thing after receiving their salary is often to go to the car dealership to choose a car that they have long wanted.
So take Madrid as an example. In a city of only 5 million people, there are actually 8 million registered cars. During the rush hour every day, the roads are extremely congested. Both are one car and one person. Extremely luxurious. Moreover, there are many of these people who are "thousand-yuan people", that is, people whose monthly salary is only a few hundred to one thousand euros.
Players love to drive all kinds of fancy cars. Both Real Madrid and Barcelona are long-term partners of Audi, while Atletico Madrid is Ferrari. But it’s not that the players of Atletico Madrid are richer than the players of the two giants, but because their chairman, Old Hill, often owes wages, but he will pay in disguise with Ferrari cars, which can reduce taxes...
But Spain's coaches prefer Mercedes. someone said. Most of them love their daughters, and the latter word for Mercedes is a Spanish girl's name. This is the name of the daughter of Deportivo's coach Irueta. She also has the same name as the daughter of Barcelona coach Rexach.
The reporters in Valencia thought that Chang Sheng must have made a lot of money in Valencia, so it would not be difficult for him to buy a Mercedes-Benz.
Actually every club meeting of this kind. It is a great opportunity for stars to show their "men's collections". Because the media will gather more, and there is no shortage of media in the fashion and luxury industries. This is also a stage to show your influence and strength to the public.
But Chang Sheng actually came to the dinner party in a taxi... This can't be described as "low-key", is it too shabby?
But then, the door of the taxi cab was opened, and the driver ran out: "Let's take a photo, Chang!"
After speaking, he greeted the reporters across the street and shouted: "Take a photo with us!!"
The reporters clicked the shutters of their cameras almost reflexively.
The camera taxi driver is smiling happily.
Before leaving, the driver was very excited. He hugged and bowed to Chang Sheng. After tossing for a while, he got back into the car, started the car, and drove away with the screeching sound of tires rubbing against the road.
And Chang Sheng raised his hands at the stunned reporters across the street, with a smile on his face, he didn't feel that it was shabby to take a taxi.
※※※
At the Christmas dinner, Chang Sheng was arranged to sit directly next to Otti, at the same table as the club's senior management.
And it was Otti who directly pulled Chang Sheng to sit-Chang Sheng wanted to sit with other coaches at first.
This made Sorel, who was at the same table, very upset.
Because this table is full of high-level and major shareholders of the club.
Apart from Pitage, none of the other club staff were at the table.
What is Chang Sheng? Just a part-time job. Why can he be on an equal footing with us shareholders?
No matter how good he is in leading the team, he still has a part-time job. Wouldn't it be nice to go to the coach's desk?
Soler is very dissatisfied with Otti for doing this.
Seeing Chang Sheng seated, the other shareholders would chat with Chang Sheng out of politeness and congratulate the team on their performance.
Although it may not be sincere, but the superficial skills are still in place.
When it was Solerard's turn, the young man who was younger than Otillo put down the napkin that wiped his mouth, and looked at Chang Sheng with a smile: "I heard that Mr. Chang said that you want to hit the league championship this season. , I deeply admire Mr. Chang's courage. But I have a question. I have been puzzled all the time, and I have no chance. Today is just right, and I want to ask Mr. Chang for advice."
Say it politely. There was also a smile on his face, but everyone could hear the strong smell of gunpowder inside.
Even the smile on Ottie's face became a little unnatural.
He was very worried that Sorel would say something that would spoil the atmosphere at this time, but he couldn't stop it. Because Soler did not hold any real power position in his Valencia club, the vice-chairman was still nominal. So I can't control Sorel. And as the club's No. 2 shareholder. Second only to his own mission, Otti not only cannot offend Sorel, but also has to be on guard.
Since the time of Pedro Cortez Garcia, the two have been at loggerheads.
He knew very well that Soler had wanted to snatch the chairmanship, but he did not expect to give himself an advantage.
So he has been worried that Soler will drive him away by acquiring shares from minority shareholders.
sometimes. Even if you obviously hate him, you can't do it too much, and you have to smile.
Seeing him targeting Chang Sheng so much now, he couldn't say anything, so he could only keep silent.
It's normal for Ottie to have such concerns. First of all, he knows who Soler is, and secondly, he doesn't want to offend Soler.
But Chang Sheng didn't have such worries, he had long been upset with Soler. Start with the fitness trainer thing.
He later learned that the club's sporting director, Xavi Subiratis, had robbed him of his powers himself. He fell to Sorel. The team does not have such a thing as a physical coach. As the sports director, Subiratis should have notified him in advance to make him ready.
But until the end of the holiday, I didn't receive any notice. When he meets his coaching staff, Shihuo will start physical training. Only to find out that there is no fitness coach...
This caught me off guard. If it wasn't for me... no, it was my "brother" who knew a lot of people when he was traveling and studying in Europe. I'm afraid that I'm really going to be killed by this fitness coach's question.
If the physical training is not done well, the physical reserve is not good. Physical reserve is not good. If the winning tactics cannot be effectively implemented, then the team's performance will inevitably be affected, and it will definitely not have the current results. Maybe the other party has a reason to impeach him.
Therefore, Chang Sheng believed that Subiratis was very insidious in doing so.
If I don't do it well, I may be driven away by Valencia with the label of a loser on my back.
Avoiding being a loser is the reason and goal of Changsheng's rebirth, and it is his reverse scale. Any attempt to make him a loser is unacceptable.
Just like he was in Getafe, when the ignorant Marca reporter pointed at Chang Sheng's nose and called him a loser, he exploded.
What Soler and others did may be aimed at Otti-Chang Sheng has heard about the infighting among Valencia's senior management.
Originally, the grievances between Soler and Otti had nothing to do with him, but Soler chose the wrong opponent. If he wanted to target Otti, he would go directly to Otti. He actually found his own head, intending to hit Ottie by hitting himself.
So Changsheng Dosoler is very dissatisfied.
Later, after the "Super Sports" incident came out, Soler and Chang Sheng played against each other once.
In the end, of course, the opponent is always victorious.
Now that Soler said that face to face at the dinner table, it meant that they could finally fight without being separated from each other, and they fought directly!
Facing Solerard's offensive, Chang Sheng smiled slightly: "Although I am not a good teacher, but because you are so sincere, then I will reluctantly be your teacher."
The people around were stunned when they heard this.
Everyone knows that Sorel's words are just polite words, "ask for advice", usually say it a hundred times, but no one will take it seriously.
But Chang Sheng actually took it so seriously, aboveboard and confident, and quietly took advantage of Soler! . . )
