The sweeping army of the greenery

Chapter 124
"What?" Li Tiancheng turned his head to look at Jose with an incredulous look on his face: "What's going on, he's not a person who likes racial discrimination."

"It was a friendly match between England and Spain at the Bernabeu a few days ago..."

It turned out that in that game, a large part of the Bernabéu stadium heard the sound of "monkeys", mainly aimed at the black players Ashley Cole and Wright Phillips in the England team.

Of course, this caused an uproar. All walks of life in England, including the media and the government, opened fire on Spain. The Spanish side downplayed it at first, but then saw that the trouble was getting bigger and bigger, and the government began to apologize.

As a Spaniard working in England, Benitez certainly can't get out of the whirlpool. Many people want to know his opinion.

Benitez said in this regard: "We condemn any racist remarks, but it is not a big mistake to say such words in a small group. Of course, such remarks are not common in Spain. Maybe I am in the Spanish league. I only hear it once in three years of coaching, it depends on the measures of the Spanish government and FIFA."

After the incident, some people in the English football community suggested that the English players should withdraw collectively in protest. In this regard, Benitez said that this behavior will not help solve the matter: "We have many clubs and many different groups of fans. It's very difficult to control, but I want to tell everyone that we will do our best to prevent similar incidents from happening again."

"His words sparked widespread controversy..."

"Of course there will be controversy," Li Tiancheng interrupted Jose: "What does it mean to talk in a small group, and what does it mean to be a different group!"

"In private, isn't racial discrimination called racial discrimination? Are hooligans also fans?" Li Tiancheng's voice became higher and higher: "If you can't speak, you don't have to. What's wrong with him?"

"He started his football and coaching career in the Real Madrid youth academy, maybe to give Real Madrid fans a little excuse."

"But he is the head coach of Liverpool now." Li Tiancheng leaned back in his chair and sighed: "Even if you don't talk about the universal right and wrong, but only consider the pros and cons, what will the colleagues and the public in England think of such a thing? Liverpool?"

"It's not that serious. He criticized these phenomena anyway."

Li Tiancheng slapped the co-pilot on the back a few times: "Thank God, he's not completely crazy yet!"

"The question now is about you?"

"Me? What's none of my business?"

"Fleet Street opened fire on Spain on the issue of racial discrimination, and the Spanish media will naturally fight back. Millwall football hooligans have become a powerful weapon for the Spanish media to attack England, and you are naturally involved!"

Li Tiancheng: ...

Does this count as people sitting at home and the pot coming from the sky?
They exchanged map cannons, the eldest brother and the second brother scolded each other, and the dog bit the dog's hair, and Lao Tzu was also involved?

"That's why you came to pick up the plane, right?"

"Don't make me so utilitarian. I just came to pick you up when I had free time recently. It's actually not a big deal. As long as you don't have any special opinions, we will start to announce your opinions to the outside world."

"Have those contracts been negotiated?"

"It's all in the final stage. Only Nike wants you to transfer to the club they sponsor. They can give you a bigger sponsorship contract, such as jersey sponsorship."

"What do you think?" Li Tiancheng raised his eyebrows, and looked at Jose jokingly.

"I think you still have a lot of room for improvement in Liverpool, and there is no need to rush to transfer." Jose leaned on the backrest, calmly.

"I thought you would mobilize me to transfer," Li Tiancheng laughed, "Wouldn't you earn more then?"

"There are many ways for an agent to make money, and it's too low just to get commissions and commissions from transfers." Jose curled his lips: "If you are always in good condition, I can earn more, not to mention I haven't Forget our agreement, there is only one goal, to become one of the best players in history!"

"The best in history? A great player." Li Tiancheng relaxed at this moment: "Of course I will not forget this goal. I still remember your rhetoric. We met for the first time at that time, great player! Thanks to you I can figure it out."

"You have to admit that my statement makes sense." Jose lay back and put his hands on his lower abdomen.

"Of course, of course it makes sense!" Li Tiancheng nodded frequently.

The first time I saw Jose was in the turbulent year of 2002. Although the national football team returned after a disastrous defeat, it was very heartbreaking.

But I have gained a lot. I entered the national title for the first time, led the national junior team to win the Asian minor championship, and waited for a qualified agent...

In the final of the 2002 Asian Junior Championships, after Li Tiancheng led China to defeat South Korea 2:1, he was urged to return to the country to celebrate the victory.

Although it is only the champion of the Asian Minor Championship, it is also the Asian champion. This group of players represents the future of Chinese football.

Although this is not true at all, some of these people may be able to play professional football later, but it does not prevent many people from thinking so.

The national football team performed poorly in the World Cup, and the Chinese Football Association was in desperate need of this fig leaf.

Li Tiancheng didn't want to give the Football Association this face at all, so he planned to go back to Barcelona directly.

As soon as he walked out of the hotel, he saw Jose. This guy had chased him from Spain to the United Arab Emirates, and his suit in summer was very impressive.

At that time, the two talked a lot, and the most important thing was to set a goal for Li Tiancheng.

Generally speaking, first becoming a qualified professional player, then striving to become a first-class player, and finally becoming a top player at the Ballon d'Or level is enough to be successful.

But Jose doesn't think so, he thinks Li Tiancheng has the potential to achieve greatness.

"The greatest charm of football is that it contains a certain eternal emotion. People often say that the result is the most important thing. Ten years later, only the score is remembered, but this is not true. What is retained in people's memory is the search for greatness. From that came the emotion."

"Great players can condense the emotional resonance of the audience. Pele, Maradona, Beckenbauer, Cruyff, etc. are all like this. You also have this potential!"

Jose said a lot of things to support this argument at the time, but that is not important anymore. He let Li Tiancheng see a goal that is more ambitious and worth pursuing than the Golden Globe Award, and that is enough.

From that day on, Jose Weibo became Li Tiancheng's manager.

"As for what is great, I still think your exposition back then was wonderful."

"Thank you for the compliment." Jose accepted the compliment calmly, as long as you always remember your goal, even if you think my words are very clumsy, I am very happy.

Li Tiancheng: ...

No matter how much I see this painting, I still feel very uncomfortable. Maybe it has something to do with my own appearance?

But the news he brought really made people unhappy. Although it was not a big deal, the toad was lying on the feet, and it was so annoying!
It's also fortunate that Jose had told him earlier, otherwise he would have fallen into the ditch if he had yelled at the reporter excitedly.

Benitez is really worrying...
