Chapter 248 Albertini's visit(1/2)
This question is very sharp.
Well, or it can be said that this question is very sinister and is a question suspected of jumping into battle.
Zhang Yang looked at the reporter with a sneer.
Seeing that Zhang Yang was about to get angry, Mendes handed over a look and asked Zhang Yang to control his emotions.
Well, he really controlled his emotions. Zhang Yang stood up and used the word "waving away" to describe it very appropriate.
"Oh, God, you got him away."
"You made all this yellow."
Other reporters had questions to ask. Seeing Zhang Yang seemingly leaving angrily, and the agent also announced that the news conference was over. These reporters were dissatisfied and blamed the reporter who asked the question.
The reporter was very proud. Obviously, he was able to anger Zhang Yang with his own problems and make the boy leave angrily.
"It seems that Zhang Yang is really angry. He must be saddened by Milan being eliminated by Manchester United." An English reporter said with a smile.
Walking out of the conference room, Mendes caught up with Zhang Yang. Mr. 'Super Agent' looked at his player and suddenly said, "Did you do it on purpose?"
Zhang Yang stopped and squinted his eyes, "How can I see it?"
"Yeah." Mendes said, "I bet, are you going to swear at that time? That must be a very ugly thing. I guess Cristiano Ronaldo will definitely jump up after hearing it."
Zhang Yang also smiled, and he snapped his fingers, "That's right, I'm very upset and want to scold people, well, but the hell is that guy Cristiano, I know, and I can't say anything too much."
Zhang Yang and Cristiano Ronaldo were neither convinced by each other in private and were not polite in words. However, it was privately. In public occasions, both Zhang Yang and Cristiano Ronaldo tried their best to avoid being fooled by the media. Of course, they knew that the media wanted them to quarrel, and their buddies just didn't want to do what the media wanted. How about it?!
"It's very unhappy." Mendes asked.
Zhang Yang tsk and looked at his agent, "Jorge, why do I feel that you are a little gloating?"
"No, no, of course not." The 'Super Agent' denied it, "How is that possible? Of course I hope you get better and better." In fact, what Mendes thought in his heart was that this would feel more real. Zhang Yang's growth rate was too fast, astonishingly fast, which even gave Mendes an illusion that it was simply a dream. AC Milan was eliminated by Manchester United, which could be said to be a big and small setback that Zhang Yang suffered, which also made Mendes feel that all this was true. This kid has been smooth sailing and finally encountered some difficulties.
If you know that your agent is this idea, Zhang Yang will be the first to jump, your buddy will be smooth sailing? Fart! What a great effort will your buddy make to achieve what you are now!
At this time, Zhang Yang suddenly remembered that he won the Golden Boot of the Serie A with a record 40 goals, which also helped AC Milan win the Serie A championship. These two awards were rewarded in the "King of Ball Duplicate". At that time, Zhang Yang chose a method of bundling rewards, that is, to win the Serie A Golden Boot and Serie A championship at the same time. Only when these two conditions are met will the reward be received. Once one item is not completed, there will be no reward. Although this is risky, the reward will be much richer.
"Jorge, I won't go out. I'll just settle lunch in the hotel restaurant later." Zhang Yang said suddenly.
Mendes glanced at Zhang Yang, thinking that Zhang Yang was a little depressed because he could only watch Cristiano Ronaldo play in the Champions League final and did not want to go out. He nodded and went out by himself.
Zhang Yang returned to his room, and he entered the "King of Ball System" in his mind, found the "receive reward" and clicked to confirm.
The name of the reward this time is "Full Moon Scimitar". Zhang Yang was stunned, and then there was a burst of ecstasy. This is the "nickname" of Beckham's free kick. Does this reward mean that he can master Beckham's free kick skills?
After carefully looking at the description of this skill, Zhang Yang finally figured it out.
This reward roughly means that Zhang Yang can basically master the "full moon scimitar" footwork, but there is a limit. For example, let Beckham himself take the free kick. If Beckham's chance of scoring is 100%, Zhang Yang takes the free kick, the chance of scoring is 50%! This still requires a lot of free kick training every day.
If Zhang Yang scored ten goals in the game, the probability of scoring a goal increased by 15 percentage points to 65%!
Scored twenty goals, and increased by twenty-five percentage points again! It reached 90%!
If you score thirty goals, Zhang Yang will completely integrate this skill, not only his understanding of free kick footing skills is comparable to that of Beckham, but even better. At that time, a real set-piece master appeared.
Zhang Yang is still very satisfied with this skill. This is different from the previous skills such as "Bulle Tails" and "Marseille Swivel". Those skills are personal skills in the game. Although they are very good, they are not practical most of the time. However, the skill of this "Full Moon Scimitar" is not the case. As long as you practice diligently in daily life, enhance your understanding of the penalty set piece, integrate as soon as possible, and reach a certain number of goals, you can truly become a set piece master! Obviously, this skill is more practical!
Zhang Yang is familiar with the skills of the "Full Moon Scimitar" in the dungeon. He has been practicing for a long time. He wiped the sweat from his forehead, was about to drink a sip of water, take a rest, and then continued to train. Zhang Yang has always been willing to be cruel in the matter of "training himself".
At this moment, the doorbell rang, and Zhang Yang frowned. He just felt that he had found the feeling of taking the penalty set piece. Being disturbed at this time was definitely not a happy thing.
I ignored it, but the doorbell kept ringing.
Zhang Yang came out of the copy helplessly, and he felt very sorry for the visitors outside the door. Although the room number of the hotel where Zhang Yang stayed in was not a secret, not everyone could visit. There were bodyguards outside, and the hotel was also told not to disturb strangers.
Could it be Mendes? Didn’t he go out and have something to do? Why did he come back so soon? Zhang Yang thought depressedly. But if it weren’t Mendes, who else could it be?
When I opened the door, it was Mendez. But in addition to Mendez, there was also a middle-aged man wearing a pair of sunglasses. The man seemed familiar, but Zhang Yang couldn't remember it at once.
Seeing Mendes coming with a "stranger", Zhang Yang was a little unhappy. He didn't want to be disturbed by his own private space, let alone the one he was training in the dungeon just now.
Mendes saw the displeasure that flashed away from Zhang Yang's face. He smiled and explained, "Zhang Yang, this is Mr. Demetrio Albertini."
De Metrio Albertini? Zhang Yang suddenly realized that he was familiar with him. It was Albertini. Albertini occasionally went to Milanello. Although Zhang Yang was not familiar with Albertini, he still talked about it. However, today Albertini wore big sunglasses, and Zhang Yang suddenly didn't recognize him.
De Metrio Albertini was born in 1971 and grew up in AC Milan Youth Training Camp. He was once an important member of the Ross and Blacks led by Sachi and Capello. When Albertini was 17 years old, he began his Serie A journey in 1988-89. In the 1991-92 season, he became the absolute main force in Capello's army. AC Milan also won the league championship that season. As the core figure and conductor of the midfield, Albertini has excellent judgment on the game: he always determines the timing and method of attack in the game, so he also has the nickname of "midfield metronome". In addition to his outstanding skills, he always on the court.
Strictly self-disciplined and gentle. He won 5 league championships with AC Milan, two European Cups, two European Super Cups, one Toyota Cup and three Italian Super Cup champions. Albertini was a world-famous midfielder in the 1990s and was known as the "Four Talents" along with Redondo of Argentina, Paul Sousa of Portugal, and Guardiola of Spain. His iconic "leaf-falling ball" and long passes like scalpels left a deep impression on the world. The double midfielder composed of Albertini and Dino Baggio has always been the most stable part of the Italian team's performance. In the national team and Milan team, Albertini has long served as deputy captain.
Well, in a word, this is a legendary star, and he is respected in both his career and life.
After retiring, Albertini now serves as vice chairman of the Italian Football Association.
But at this time, what will happen if Albertini comes to find him? Zhang Yang thought about it, but he really couldn't imagine what would happen if Albertini came to find him.
"Hello, Zhang Yang, come uninvited, I hope you don't mind." Albertini smiled, and his expression when he spoke was gentle, which made people feel good.
"Ahhh, of course not. It's too late to welcome. Welcome to the house." Zhang Yang is like this. If others are polite to him, he will get along well. The media said that Zhang Yang is not easy to get along with. In fact, if you analyze it carefully, you can see that many times the other party provokes first and Zhang Yang will fight back. In fact, this young man is far from what the media said.
Zhang Yang stayed in a presidential suite, and he invited Mendes and Albertini to the living room to sit down.
"Tea or coffee?" Zhang Yang asked.
"Coffee." Mendes said.
"Drink tea, I like Chinese green tea very much," said Albertini.
Zhang Yang nodded, and called the waiter to send a cup of coffee. Then he brewed two cups of Biluochun himself. In fact, Zhang Yang did not have the habit of drinking tea. But later he felt that if he was a guest abroad, it seemed better than coffee if he served a cup of tea. Well, he was a Chinese. In the eyes of Westerners, tea and porcelain are symbols of China.
Mendes smiled and said, "If I had known, I would have drank Zhang Yang's green tea, so Zhang Yang rolled his eyes, meaning that you would have less tea when I was using me."
Then, the three of them sat down and chatted carefully.
When facing Albertini's visit, Zhang Yang was a little at a loss. The main reason was that he didn't know Albertini's purpose.
Zhang Yang greeted him to sit down, brewed tea, and said, "Mr. Albertini, what's wrong with you this time?"
Before Albertini came, he carefully studied Zhang Yang's habits and personality. He knew that Zhang Yang was different from the Chinese in the traditional cognition of Westerners. Generally speaking, Orientals are more restrained and polite, and rarely ask questions directly like this. However, Zhang Yang asked questions directly. Fortunately, Albertini also understood Zhang Yang and knew that this kid had such a personality. Unlike most Chinese people, he did not like to go around the corner.
"You can call me Demi," Albertini said with a smile, "What do you think about the prospects of the Italian national team in the European Cup, Zhang."
Zhang Yang was stunned. This question was very painful. He thought to himself, you shouldn't ask me this question. You should ask the Italian national team head coach Donadoni. He was a little stunned by this question. After half a minute, he nodded and said, "Well, Demi, I will call you Demi. The Italian national team, the Italian team is a traditional European strong team. In the 2006 World Cup, he was able to win the championship. This is the embodiment of his strength. In this European Cup, the Italian team is also one of the favorites to win the championship. You must have gone to the championship."
Zhang Yang said casually that what he said was also common sense. Zhang Yang thought to himself that there should be no problem with answering this way. The key is that Zhang Yang cannot understand the purpose of Albertini, and he also does not know why Albertini asked himself this question.
Albertini was drinking tea, but thinking about how to raise that topic.
Under normal circumstances, the most important thing to be able to top the World Cup is strength. Therefore, teams that perform well in the World Cup often have good performance in the subsequent European Cup. England won the domestic World Cup in 1966, and two years later they finished third in the Italian European Cup; West Germany won the German World Cup before 1974, and two years later in the former Yugoslavia World Cup, they lost to former Czechoslovakia in the final; in 1990, former West Germany won the Italian World Cup, and two years later in the Swedish European Cup, the unified German team also only lost to Denmark in the final; France won the domestic World Cup for the first time in 1998, and two years later, the Gaul Rooster beat Italy in Belgium and won the European Cup for the second time.
In fact, since the 1960 European Cup was held, almost all European teams that won the previous World Cups have been able to reach at least the semi-finals in the subsequent European Cups. Of course, there are exceptions, and there is only Italy. Italy reached the top in the Spanish World Cup in 1982, and two years later, they failed to pass the European Cup qualifiers, which became a major shame in the history of the Blues.
What is even more incomprehensible is that the sufficient conditions for Italy to be humiliated in the European Cup do not require them to win the World Cup. In fact, as long as the Italians perform well in the World Cup, the Blues in the subsequent European Cup will be in trouble. There is no need to talk about not being able to enter the European Cup finals in 1984. Italy won third place in the local World Cup in 1990, and the subsequent European Cup fell in shame again in the qualifiers; in 1994, Italy reached the final in the US World Cup and lost to Brazil in the penalty kick, but ended in the group stage in the 1996 Europa League in England, Zora lost an incredible penalty kick.
For the Blues, gaining momentum in the World Cup has almost become a curse that restricts them from moving forward in the European Cup.
Of course, as the vice chairman of the Italian Football Association, the worries of the Italian Football Association will not be simple because of this so-called "curse", but he knows the current situation of the Italian team more than anyone else.
Albertini said: "Well, yes, the whole of Italy hopes that the Italian team can win the European Cup this summer after winning the World Cup two years ago. However, it is very difficult for Italy to win the championship."
Zhang Yang heard Albertini's words, but he didn't respond. Although his personality was sometimes perverted, Zhang Yang's work was not as reckless as people imagined. When necessary, Zhang Yang was still very calm. He took a big sip of tea. Well, it was different from Albertini's small sip of tea. Zhang Yang's tea was called "cow drink".
"I believe that Mr. Donadoni can find a way to win the championship for the Italian team." Zhang Yang said as he laughed, and at the same time he felt even more impatient and confused. He didn't think that Albertini appeared in front of him so suddenly, just to discuss the future and prospects of the Italian team in this European Cup with him, a person who has nothing to do with the Italian team.
Albertini thought about it and decided to get straight to the point. He didn't like to go around the corner. The key point was that the young man in front of him seemed to be even more dislike to go around the corner.
Albertini visited Zhang Yang today, and it was thoughtful. He did not expect a clear reply today, but even as a test, he hoped to have a good reply.
What is this? In a word, Zhang Yang's performance is really outstanding as the most popular scorer in football now, especially this season, Zhang Yang scored fifteen goals in the Champions League, which broke the Champions League single-season goal record of fourteen goals maintained by Altafini. This is a very amazing achievement. You should know that in the era of Altafini, football paid more attention to offense. Although it cannot be said that defense is useless, the defense strength is much worse than modern football. Therefore, in that era, goals were much easier than now. Modern football attached unprecedented importance to defense, and the art of defensiveness has also developed to the extreme, which also highlights how great and incredible it is to break Altafini's goal record with 15 goals in the Champions League.
Well, it’s already great and amazing to just break Artafini’s goal record with fifteen goals in the Champions League, but Zhang Yang is still behind!
This 22-year-old man actually scored forty goals in the Serie A throughout the season!
Is this a concept?!
Zhang Yang improved the record of 35 goals in the Serie A season set by Nodal more than 50 years ago, and achieved an unprecedented 40 goals!
As for the same thing, during that time, Nodar's defense was far inferior to that of now, and the Serie A was also the one that paid the most attention to defense among all leagues. Almost every Serie A team has its own set of defensive experience. Being able to win the Serie A Golden Boot is awesome, not to mention winning the Serie A Golden Boot with a transcendent feat of 40 goals!
Therefore, after Zhang Yang won the Golden Boot of the 2007/2008 Serie A season with 40 goals, the entire Italian football world was cheering and sighing that this young Chinese man erected an almost impossible monument for everyone, including himself!
This evaluation can be said to be quite amazing! Considering that Zhang Yang is only twenty-two years old, the young man's current achievements and strength have also shocked the world!
The media and fans are cheering for Zhang Yang and fascinated by him.
However, as the head coach of the Italian national team, a shooter like Zhang Yang is simply a super shooter that any team is eager for! It has outstanding ability to grab points, fast speed, good long shots, and excellent heading!
This is simply a mixture of Henry, Inzaghi and Shepchenko!
Donadoni was moved!
Well, don't get me wrong, don't think wrongly. Donadoni was moved by the gentleman's sudden idea. If Zhang Yang can play football on behalf of the Italian team, then...
Yes, maybe I just thought about it casually at the beginning, but the more I thought about it, the more excited I became. When I thought of Zhang Yang's terrible strength, Donadoni was jealous. Once this idea came to my mind, it was like taking drugs and getting addicted, and it could no longer be stopped.
The deeper I think, the more excited Donadoni is. In the eyes of this Italian national team head coach, Zhang Yang has been sublimated into a super shooter sent by God to the Italian team!
Of course, while excited, Donadoni also realized how difficult it is to operate this matter and let Zhang Yang play football on behalf of the Italian team!
It is precisely because of the difficulty of knowing this that Donadoni did not take action. However, now that the season is over and the European Cup is getting closer, the Italian team performed poorly in the warm-up match, and the most significant performance is that the striker is weak!
Under such circumstances, Donadoni began to think about Zhang Yang again.
To be continued...
