Chapter 55 The Prince of Dark Horse
Chapter 55 The Dark Horse Prince
After the calendar turned over the January page, Tang En learned a new news. The news made him very angry, but he could not express it in person.
Evan Doggetty found him and informed him that on February 4 and 5 that he would lose his most trusted assistant for two days.
"It's the "Football Boy" talent show again?" He snorted. He actually wanted to swear, and the moment he heard Evan tell him about this. But when he was about to do this, he thought of Mourinho, so he quickly calmed down.
He is not as arrogant as Mourinho, and he still knows clearly whose club this club is. He doesn't want Evan to think of "rebelliousness", which is of no benefit to him. He doesn't want to own the entire club, which will not bring him any benefits, but will give him a headache.
So he just snorted and expressed his dissatisfaction.
Evan smiled: "No one is more suitable to appear there than the Chinese Tang in the final of this show. Because he is..."
Tang En nodded: "Yes, I know. He is a Chinese or an assistant coach of this team. He has good popularity in China. The audience will be very happy that a familiar Eastern Kong in the same situation... This is actually a way to please the Chinese audience and the market."
"I kept saying that Tony Donne is a very smart person." Evan said with a smile, without any dissatisfaction because Donne interrupted him.
This is what Evan likes more than Abramovich. He is indeed not as rich as the Russians, but because of this, he is a little smarter than the Russians...
Tang En knew very well that a person like him was soft-hearted and not hard-working, and so was Mourinho. Evan's smile made him unable to get angry. But if he met a tough boss like Abramovich, Tang En would be tough with the other party to the end. At worst, he would be separated. Nowadays, who is afraid of whom?
"It's useless to compliment me, Evan..." Tang En waved weakly. He was indeed unhappy with this matter, but he was not yet at the point of turning against the club owner. "I think Allen is a bit eager for quick success and instant benefits in doing this. Some things are too anxious... I'm afraid that he will suffer a loss in the future."
"You worry. I will tell him, Tony. Let's talk about this. In fact, so far, the talent show has been considered successful, with high ratings and good social impact. "Anyone said of course the data sent back from China, but Tang En doubted how much water there was, and he agreed cautiously. "In addition, you don't have to worry about delaying too long. Allen will go to China with Tang. Tang's work is very simple, and he will come back after completing it. Allen is responsible for other things. It's only two days of incident, which can't delay much of your business." He patted Tang En's shoulder.
Tang En shrugged and said helplessly: "Okay. Even if I don't agree, what can I do?"
"Thank you for your understanding and support, Tony. Finally, I wish you the best coach in the world." Evan stretched out his hand.
Tang En patted his hand: "You said it last year."
"It's okay to say it once."
Evan went back with satisfaction, but Tang En sighed helplessly. He worked for others. There was no way. But Tang En still insisted on not being a boss, and he knew that he was not the material.
On February 2, Nottingham Forest defeated West Ham United 1:0 at home. As Manchester United was tied by Tottenham Hotspur away, the gap between Forest and Manchester United was narrowed, and Arsenal, who won the ball, took the opportunity to surpass and return to the top of the league.
The league is over half. The competition for league championship is becoming increasingly fierce.
Tang simply cleaned up and set off again to China. Who made him Chinese? The final climax of this talent show was originally planned to let Allen be the hidden boss, but Allen had an idea and decided to make the Chinese more accepting and familiar with Tang to complete this glorious mission.
Putting aside Tang En's factors, his choice is indeed very good and suitable.
Although he is an assistant coach, Tang already has a group of his own fans in China. These people like and admire Tang. Follow him. Collect all the news about him. This may be caused by the twisted environment of Chinese football - there is no point in worshiping players, so just worshiping coaches.
Anyway, at present, Tang is indeed the Chinese footballer who can give the majority of Chinese fans the most psychological comfort abroad. As many overseas Chinese are in a downturn, only Tang still appears firmly in the coach's seat on the sidelines of the Premier League every week.
Therefore, from the perspective of pleasing Chinese audiences and markets, Tang is indeed the best candidate for this trip to China.
And his work is really simple. On the day of recording the finals, he appeared on the scene at the last moment and announced a result that everyone would not expect...over.
When Tang En sent Tang away, he repeatedly told him: "Come back after completing the task. Don't postpone it for two days as last time before you come back. You have to know that the punishment for being late is against the players..."
Tang nodded: "Tang Jing won't go back this time."
"That's good." Tang En snorted from his nose. "Go early and come back early."
"9527" Chen Jian had a "breakup meal" with his friends who had been with him for more than three months.
Because of the fainting incident, he became famous in the show, and many viewers had a good impression of this strong young man. However, it also made his ground number his new nickname at that time, and was often called by his friends to make fun of him. Of course, this is just one of his nicknames. Englishman Kenny Sansem likes to call him "smiler" because his smile left a deep impression on Sansem. Not only that, he, a young man who always likes to smile on his face, is also quite popular among the TV audience.
Now, he sat with other contestants to drink and eat. This was the last sumptuous dinner they had together. For this reason, they ran back together to go to the restaurant.
Of course, there are less than thirteen people sitting next to Chen Jian.
The finals training camp is cruel. Since the British dominated this training camp, the selection criteria are only football level, not the boring tricks of who is so handsome and who can dance street dance.
The British coaching team has formulated many training subjects for these Chinese football teenagers. The assessment content is to complete these projects and each project is scored separately. Finally, the comprehensive evaluation is obtained.
This can ensure the fierce competition, give the program a higher suspense, and attract the audience more.
For example, some people can get high scores in skills subjects, but lose in physical fitness. Some people have first-class physical fitness but slightly inferior. Some people are good at shooting, some like to assist teammates, and some are responsible for defense. Everyone has something they are good at and not good at. If the coaches don’t announce the results, no one knows whether they can win the final game.
In three months, they sent away seven people, and today they have to "send" four more people.
The quotes are added because these eliminated people will not leave immediately. The seven people who were eliminated before will be invited back to participate in the recording of the last episode.
Before this meal, Kenny Sansem announced the names of the three lucky ones who finally entered the finals on the training ground.
Wang Yang and Song Hui, and Chen Jian.
He walked to the end again.
In fact, after starting the training camp, Chen Jian was eliminated. Because he was the only player among these fourteen people who did not have a professional training background, he was truly real. Purely amateur player, his most brilliant resume was just the Sichuan Guangyuan High School Football Cup championship won by his high school team.
But such an amateur player actually walked all the way to the finals, became one of the top three, and had the opportunity to get one of two air tickets to the UK.
What is the secret to other places? It’s very simple, just four words - “Diligence can make up for your shortcomings”.
It is better to work hard on other people's subjects, spend twice as much time as others to practice, and use your brain to figure out how to improve your grades in disadvantaged projects. And maintain your own advantages. For example, his skills and consciousness are not as good as those of his professionally trained companions, but his physical fitness, good physical fitness and fast speed. He is always the first in every training camp to conduct physical fitness tests and speed tests. The scores in this event helped him finally get the top three.
At the same time, his grades in subjects he is not good at are also steadily improving. Everyone in the training camp has seen his progress. Especially Kenny Sansem, he likes this child who is focused and hardworking.
In addition. Chen Jian started practicing English hard before he learned the results. The people next to him didn’t understand this. His answer was: “Anyway, you have to take English in college, even if you don’t choose it. I don’t have to worry about the English rating exam…”
His mentality is quite optimistic and very good.
In this way, he was not favored every time, but he became one of the people who stayed in Changsha every time. Until this time, he was the worst in the three, but he still stayed, and this was victory.
Wang Yang and Song Hui are the two most beautiful people, and they have been selected from the beginning, so it is not surprising that they are selected. Chen Jian is really a dark horse, and with his dark skin, he also has a nickname called "Prince of Dark Horse".
A tall and big man stood up opposite the table, holding a beer glass in his hand: "No matter who among you three can go to the UK, I have nothing to say. We are brothers in the past three months." This man spoke Mandarin with a Northeast accent, and was Zhao Rui from Dalian. "Since he is a brother, I am happy who can go to the UK. Anyway, I go out means we Chinese. But I still have to say more..." He looked at Chen Jian who was still smiling at everyone.
"9527. " This is the nickname that Chen Jian has the highest acceptance in the internal situation. "I will impress you!" Zhao Rui gave his other thumbs up, "What kind of skills do you want to talk about? I, Lao Zhao, may not necessarily impress anyone." Zhao Rui is indeed qualified to say this. He comes from Dalian Shide Youth Team, and his level is indeed very good. Even if he is comparable to Song Hui and Wang Yang, he is just a little bit inferior. He was eliminated because he was so lucky. On the day of the assessment, he caught a cold and had a high fever, and performed in a mess... He came down and hid in the bathroom and cried loudly. When he came out, he said with red eyes, "Isn't it just being eliminated? What's the big deal?"
"But I'm convinced you! 9527! I really convinced you! You're a man! Pure!" Zhao Rui drank a little too much and was a little excited. "Mom... I was smeared after having a cold and fever, and you could pass the audition assessment. Ten thousand people! They are not as good as you, a person with a fever and diarrhea... Just for this, I'll convince you!"
Chen Jian was always smiling. He didn't know how to deal with such a passionate companion. And this naked compliment made him feel a little embarrassed. In fact, he knew how much he had...
"Forget it! Stop talking nonsense, come and do it... let's do it!"
Chen Jian stood up, clinked the glass with Zhao Rui, and then tilted his neck to pour a glass of wine slowly. He won Zhao Rui's praise: "Okay! Be honest! Integrity! I like it!" He also tilted his neck and fucked.
Next, some other people clinked glasses to congratulate the three lucky ones in turn. Chen Jian was drunk a lot and was a little confused. In fact, even if he was not drunk, he was confused.
I can actually enter the final three and have the opportunity to compete for one of the two places. Am I dreaming? My level... My level is not so powerful yet? Although I am indeed working harder than others. But... can I really do it? I won’t embarrass the Chinese after going out, right?
Before, some people said that this draft is still a draft after all, and there is no business-oriented approach. Even if you can go to the UK in the end, the British clubs don’t expect to choose a genius by relying on this. So the biggest possibility is that they complete the contract and let the two lucky Chinese students train there for a year. Then go back wherever they come. At most, they can see what real professional football is, broaden their horizons, and enrich their life experience. Do you really want to rely on this to play professional football? Hello, buddy. Wake up, it’s dawn.
Maybe anyone who sits here doesn’t really want to become famous and play the professional football he has always dreamed of? Even amateur players like Chen Jian have this idea, let alone those from professional teams.
But when such an opportunity is really in front of them, I will still be a little scared... I am afraid that my level will not keep up with other people's requirements, and I will come back in shame after a year...
"Hey, why are you having fun alone? 9527! Come and have a drink! You guy are lucky. Good luck..." Someone came up to clink the glasses again.
Yes, this is also a saying. Some people guess why Chen Jian, who is obviously not strong, stayed every time, and persisted until the end and got the ticket to the final. Is there any inside story?
It’s a pity, there is no insider. So the “luck theory” became active and there is a market. The audience who supported other players thought Chen Jian’s luck was really good... You should know that the last game of the final three was actually a greater part of luck - a penalty shootout!
Most people believe that the winners determined by penalty kicks rely not on their skills and consciousness, or something, but on their simple luck. The audience will think so. Of course, some of the partners who are competitors will think so.
Chen Jian didn't care about the last two nagging words of this man. He raised his glass to clink the glass with the other party.
Everyone had a great time drinking. Song Hui, Wang Yang and Chen Jian made it because they entered the final. And the other people might want to drown their sorrows with alcohol. Maybe they were really happy for them, maybe... there were other ideas that were not important anymore.
Anyway, there will be no more assessments when I am on the show tomorrow, and even a hangover is not a big deal.
This is a breakup. After today, when the program is recorded tomorrow, all the answers and suspense will be revealed.
Chapter completed!
