Chapter 52: Are You in a Hurry?
In the weekend's game, Sao Paulo halted their decline and beat Pompreta 1-0.
Wu Qi was once again the key figure, scoring the winning goal.
In this game, Mario tried a new formation.
Taylor Tanaka, who was originally Wu Qi's substitute, was temporarily ordered to play in the back.
Taylor Tanaka is not tall, but he is very strong and fast. At both offensive and defensive ends, Taylor Tanaka's role is very prominent.
Wu Qi has always been indifferent to Tanaka Taylor, and even has a little prejudice against him.
Wu Qi understands modern history, and he has his own views on Japan. When you are stronger than him, he is obedient to you, but when you are weak, the attitude is not certain, and he may have to ride you by the neck. Especially if you can't get used to seeing this guy, you call this senior, that senior in the locker room all day long.
My predecessors used Portuguese, so I really don't know how to translate it more appropriately.
In fact, Taylor's strength is good, and there is no need to be so humble in the locker room, which makes Wu Qi feel very hypocritical.
But Wu Qi had to admit that this Tanaka Taylor was very diligent. The coach arranged for him to play in the back, and it was precisely because of his tireless work on the training ground, running back and forth to defend at any cost.
Putting aside everything else, the addition of Taylor Tanaka objectively adds a lot of points to the overall level of the Youth Army.

Sintani has finally shaken off the slump of the early stage of the league.
In midweek, Sao Paulo won 4-0 at home to Palmeiras.
Wu Qi scored one goal and two assists, and once again became the key to victory.
Sintani also scored two goals to regain Mario's trust.
After the game, a reporter from the São Paulo State newspaper interviewed Wu Qi alone.
"Your name is Wu Qi, isn't it?" said a beautiful reporter wearing a T-shirt with the state of São Paulo printed on it.
"Well, yes. ”
"How did you feel after scoring today?" the beautiful reporter said, wiping her long golden hair, exuding a fragrance.
"Uh...... It feels good ....... happy. Wu Qi was very nervous in front of the camera, not knowing what to say.
"Hehehe, it's okay, don't be nervous. The reporter was amused by Wu Qi's reaction, "Talk about how you feel now, do you have anything special to say?"
Wu Qi calmed down.
I usually speak well, but it always feels weird to be photographed by such a camera.
Moreover, this female reporter is so eye-catching, it is really difficult for people to calm down.
"Uh....I want to keep scoring for Sao Paulo. ”
The beautiful reporter's eyebrows rose, signaling whether Wu Qi was finished.
"Oh, and! I hope to play for my motherland!" Wu Qi added.
The beautiful reporter left after the interview.
They think Wu Qi is so cute.
"Alas, what a shame!" Wu Qi felt that he was so stupid just now, and he couldn't speak clearly.
The first time I was interviewed, I felt terrible.

"Hey, isn't this Wu Qi?
On the TV, Wu Qi had a bewildered expression.
"Wow, Wu Qi, you're on the show! Haha!
This is a football program on the São Paulo Sports Channel.
Wu Qi glanced at it, it was too embarrassing.
"Don't look at it, it's about to turn off!" Wu Qi was about to grab the remote control.
After some fighting, Wu Qi was naturally outnumbered, so he had to sit down with everyone and watch the news honestly.
"Well, this girl is on time! Why didn't MD come to interview me? Noah grumbled.
In that day's game, Noah's back line was as solid as a rock, and it was indeed a great contribution.
In this way, I can't help Noah!
"The São Paulo Youth Army has seen a surge of talent in recent years, and today's sports team probed and found an impressive Asian player with outstanding skills!" said the show's anchor as he clicked on the big screen.
Highlights from the day of the match between São Paulo and Palmeiras pop up.
It should be said that they are all highlights of Wu Qi's touch ball.
Wu Qi had never seen a picture of his own game.
In the video, Wu Qi is constantly interspersed between the midfield and the midfield, and his skills are very agile. Every time Wu Qi breaks through, he will create a great threat to the opponent's defense.
"It turns out that I am so six on the field!" Wu Qi couldn't help but be a little happy, completely forgetting his frustration when he was interviewed.
"We will also continue to follow every game of the Sao Paulo club, and hope that the youngster just now can become a superstar in the future!"
The news of Wu Qishang's sports program spread far and wide, and it became the focus of everyone's attention for a while.
"Senior Wu Qi is amazing!" Taylor said to Sintani.
Sintani was quite embarrassed about this. First, he failed to attract the attention of the media and was a little disappointed, and second, Sintani was a little jealous of Wu Qi's progress.
Wu Qi is two years younger than Sintani, but Wu Qi's strength in the team is now rising. At this rate, Wu Qi is likely to enter the first team after the end of this season.
In contrast, Sintani hasn't made much progress in recent years.
"Well, yes! When Wu Qi first came, it was really a little bad. I can't run, and my body is still very weak. Sintanny's words seemed a little unwilling.
"Really, hasn't he always been so good?" said Taylor Tanaka, who didn't seem to believe it.
"Excellent people like Wu Qi's predecessors have worked so hard, and I should work hard!" Tanaka Taylor didn't know what logic he was based on, so he had to go to practice again.

"Mr. Wang Jian, I think we can continue to discuss the renewal of Wu Qi's contract. Luke asked Wang Jian to meet again.
This time, he seemed to have more respect for Wang Jian.
"The biggest concession we can make is to change the contract to eight years. This is a rare opportunity, if Mr. Wang does not accept it, it will be difficult for us to guarantee that Wu Qi's contract will still have such conditions over time. Luke glanced at Wang Jian, as if to intimidate Wang Jian.
"Four years, our request is simple. Wang Jian said his bottom line.
Presumably Luke knows the current situation, and the media is already paying attention to Wu Qi's dynamics.
It can be said that Wu Qi has entered the football circle in the real sense.
In the past, I practiced hard and no one knew the purpose of no one care, that is, I could be discovered one day.
The media is a natural billboard, and under his propaganda role, I believe that someone will soon come to inspect Wu Qi.
Although, it's nothing more than a sports channel in the state of São Paulo. But intuition tells Luke that Wu Qi's potential next home is very likely to appear in the short term.
If there are European teams as competitors, then Sao Paulo will most likely be at a disadvantage in the business battle for Wu Qi.
That's why Luke talked to Wang Jian this time.
"Four years, huh, are you crazy?" Luke was a little angry. He must be very annoyed that you have to negotiate terms with me inch by inch?
"Yes, four years. Whether it is for Wu Qi himself or the club, this is the best choice. Wang Jian said.
"Young man, do you think we'll say yes?" Luke's tone changed quickly.
"We can wait, goodbye!" Wang Jian got up and walked out of the office.
For Wu Qi's outstanding performance in recent games, Wang Jian is very pleased. This also made him feel that he had a great responsibility on his shoulders!
