Chapter 166 Stress?

Although Chang Sheng really wants to occupy the domestic media position overnight, but this matter is really too urgent

First of all, he doesn't have a trustworthy person in the Chinese media. In China, his uncle is helping him manage legal affairs, but the media is not what Pei Wei is good at.

For media public relations work, you first need someone who understands the media, preferably an insider. The second one is a person with good character, and a person with good character can only be trusted if he always wins. He may lack the ability to work, but he cannot lack character. Number one, of course, you have to be trustworthy and familiar. If you are not familiar with it, you cannot cooperate.

It's just that the first requirement is easy to meet, but the second and... are difficult.

There are many insiders, but it is hard to find insiders who are good-natured and trustworthy.

So Chang Sheng can only put this matter aside now, and then concentrate on work. After all, the team's training is the most important thing.

None of the people Changsheng bought had participated in the World Cup, so on the registration date stipulated by the team, these newly joined players came to the team for medical examination, signing and reporting.

Only then did Chang Sheng meet the players he named to buy. Except for Arbeloa and Mista, the other two met for the first time.

Cambiasso returned from Argentina, packed his luggage in Madrid, and came to Valencia.

Deco ended his vacation in Brazil ahead of schedule, returned to Porto, packed his bags, and rushed to Valencia.

The four newly joined players just got together.

They also chatted during the medical examination.

By the time the physical examination was over, the four of them had almost finished chatting.

The relationship is much closer than it was in the beginning.

What they talked about the most when they got together was what kind of person their new head coach was.

On this issue, Mista has absolute authority to speak.

Because he is the only one who has worked with Chang Sheng for a season.

So basically he said, the other three listened, and occasionally asked if there was something they didn't understand.

With one question and two questions, the image of the head coach Chang Sheng was gradually established in their minds.

According to Mista's description,

Chang Sheng is a head coach with strict training requirements and strict game requirements. He doesn't like to mingle with players very much. Most of the time he is with the coaches.

Arbeloa has doubts: "Then why, according to what you said, your players have a good relationship with him?"

Mista smiled: "It's very simple, because he can bring us victories and championships! As a player, who doesn't like winning? Who doesn't want a championship?"

With such a simple rhetorical question, Arbeloa was speechless, and it also made the other two players fall into deep thought.

In the end, Mista said to his three new teammates: "In fact, they are very easy to get along with. You just need to train hard and play hard. Usually, you don't have to worry about him. As long as he doesn't violate discipline, he usually won't trouble you. As long as you follow him, you can win the championship. You don’t need to think about other things. I think it’s very simple to get along with Chang, you give wholeheartedly, and he will reward you wholeheartedly.”

After he finished speaking, several other players fell into deep thought.

Everyone hopes that their new head coach is a person who is easy to get along with, and no one wants to cooperate with those who are difficult to get along with. But after listening to Mista's words, they are not sure whether their new head coach is easy to get along with, or not easy to get along with...

They then met their new coach.

A young over-the-top Chinese.

Although the image of Chang Sheng has appeared in the media many times in the past two seasons, they are rare in real people.

There's always something unreal about looking through a TV screen, or a newspaper photo.

Especially Deco and Cambiasso.

Both Abeloa and Mista have seen constant victories, but the remaining two have not. Cambiasso has played in Argentina for four consecutive seasons. In name, he is a player of Real Madrid, but in fact the team, the all-powerful head coach in La Liga, actually knows nothing about it.

The same goes for Deco, who has been playing in Portugal and doesn't know much about Spanish football.

He knows very little about Chang Sheng, let alone a real person.

When Chang Sheng appeared in front of them, the two players were a little surprised.

Because Chang Sheng is so young, he looks more like a player than a coach.

They froze for a moment, and saw Mista shouting excitedly: "Coach!" They realized that it was Chang Sheng, their new head coach.

So they also carefully looked at Chang Sheng.

I heard that he is almost thirty years old, but maybe Asians look younger, and he looks younger than his actual age.

He is not tall, well-proportioned, and always has a smile on his face.

He seemed very happy when he saw Mista, and greeted Alberoa.

Then he looked at the other two, Deco and Cambiasso.

He held out his hand to both of them: "Welcome to Valencia, guys. You will know later, this is the best decision of your career!"

Deco and Cambiasso unpreparedly accepted Chang Sheng's arrogance and arrogance.

※※※

At the press conference for new players to join the team, Chang Sheng let several new players see why he was called a "public enemy" by the media.

When a reporter from the Madrid area questioned Chang Sheng's signings with ill intentions, sold the team's captain and stars, but brought in nobody.

The smile on Chang Sheng's face was even wider.

At first, Deco and Cambiasso, as well as Alberoa, who had only met Changsheng once, felt strange.

How can Chang Sheng still laugh when people are so naked and slapped in the face?

Then Chang Sheng's smile became brighter and brighter. When the reporter finished asking the question and looked at Chang Sheng's face, one would think that the reporter had just flattered Chang Sheng fiercely.

Then Chang Sheng had a smile on his face, but snorted through his nose: "In my first season in Getafe and Valencia, I bought all unknowns. How are these unknowns now? You are a reporter , you should know better than me. If you don’t know, go back and check. I have no obligation to teach you. But the signings of these two seasons can already prove my vision. Question my vision? You don’t have the qualifications yet!”

The three new players sat next to Chang Sheng and looked at each other in blank dismay—their new coach has a bad temper, and they all speak so aggressively...

Looking at the reporters in the audience, no one showed any surprise at all, as if they were used to it.

Even the reporter who was scolded by Chang Sheng only had a look of displeasure on his face, and didn't say anything further.

One reporter was asked to stand up and ask: "Aren't you worried that you're putting too much pressure on new players by comparing them to established players?"

Hearing this question, Chang Sheng turned his head to look at the new players. He didn't answer, but motioned for them to answer the question by themselves.

Mista is indeed a player who has worked with Chang Sheng for a season, and knows that now is the time to show his loyalty.

So he was the first to take the lead.

"Pressure? As a professional player, I have to face all kinds of pressure. I have confidence in myself and my coach."

Mista is a player who has worked with Chang Sheng for a season. It is understandable for him to stand up and speak for his head coach.

But it was Deco who spoke second, which surprised everyone.

In fact, before opening his mouth, Deco also thought about it.

It is impossible for me to return to Porto. Coming to Valencia from Porto can be regarded as a career improvement. This is an opportunity, and I really should seize it.

He doesn't know whether he can be the main player when he comes to Valencia, but he doesn't want to be a substitute.

"I'm not afraid of competition, whether it's with my current teammates or with those who have left." It was not easy for the shy Deco to say such murderous words.

But he is very clear that if he wants to get the main position in Valencia, where there are so many masters, he must have a murderous spirit.

Although he is shy, he knows exactly what to do on the training ground and on the pitch.

Seeing that Deco took the lead, Arbeloa quickly followed up and said: "I have the confidence to deal with the pressure!"

The last one is Cambiasso, the Argentine midfielder who still has hair on top of his head. The last speech is not because he is slow, but because he is very confident.

"I'm not afraid of pressure."

Seeing that the four of them had finished speaking, Chang Sheng looked at the reporters with a smile.

"I hope you are satisfied with this answer."

After the new players' meeting, Chang Sheng met Deco's agent Mendes again in his office.

Chang Sheng is no stranger to this future Portuguese agent predator.

He has met Mendes once in his life, but that time both parties just broke up after dealing with the transfer matters as a matter of routine.

He didn't invite Mendes to his office, and Mendes didn't ask for it himself.

This time it was different, Mendes offered to meet Chang Shengjian.

Chang Sheng knew that he already had a place in the mind of the Portuguese agent.

Mendez knows how to build a good relationship with a person.

First of all, you can't be too enthusiastic, it will make people suspect that you have bad intentions. The so-called courtesan for nothing, is either rape or steal.

Secondly, don't rush to express your intentions when you meet for the first time, when the two parties are not familiar with each other, otherwise it will not make the other party value you.

In short, neither humble nor overbearing, and don't show too much interest, just communication at work is fine.

With the first contact like this, you will not be too wary of yourself when you contact the other party in the future.

Before Mendes came to see Chang Sheng, he had studied the person he wanted to meet.

From those media reports, he pieced together Chang Sheng's character and image.

He found that Chang Sheng is a person who prefers softness to toughness. If you are tough, then he will be tougher than you. In addition, he doesn't seem to have a good impression of the agent. So if I show too much superiority in front of Chang Sheng, I am afraid that it will definitely not be Chang Sheng who will be unlucky in the end, but myself and my players.

But if he is too weak, he will let this person seize the opportunity to take advantage of the loophole.

So Mendes is neither humble nor overbearing this time.

He didn't make any unreasonable demands, such as giving Carvalho a raise.

He just conveyed his goodwill to Chang Sheng, saying that if Deco feels uncomfortable here, whether it is not serious in training, or homesick and loses his temper, Chang Sheng can contact him at any time and take care of it himself.

He handed over his business card, and the other party had his phone number, and the initial contact was established.

Chang Sheng took the business card and smiled: "The agent is also responsible for the player's nanny?"

Mendes smiled slightly: "What I pay attention to as an agent is service. Unlike some agents, just sell the players to the team and it's over. I sold the players to you, and I have to be responsible for their food and housing in the new environment." Okay, help them adapt to the new environment as soon as possible. I think this is also a good thing for your team, isn't it?"

Chang Sheng nodded, he was very interested in the idea that Mendes' agent is not selling players, but services.

And admit that Mendez was right.

In fact, the head coach hopes that the players he introduces can integrate into the team as quickly as possible and make contributions to the team. No one wants to buy a bunch of high-paid substitutes who can't adapt to the team for a long time.

He also understood why Mendes would quickly become a well-known agent in Europe in the future. I'm afraid it's not as simple as relying on Mourinho's Porto to win the Champions League.

Successful people must have something extraordinary.

He felt that it was really easy and comfortable to cooperate with this well-behaved agent, at least it was much more comfortable than working with Zlatan Ibrahimovic's agent Mino Raiola.

So he took the initiative to extend his hand: "I hope we have a happy cooperation, Mr. Mendes."

In the future, a well-known agent in European football quickly came up to catch Chang Sheng's hand and shook it: "Happy cooperation!"

Such a famous manager now treats him respectfully, and Chang Sheng has a smile full of accomplishment on his face. (to be continued)
