Chapter 243: Persuasion
Lei Yi, who reported his name, waited for a while, he thought that he would get a cold "please come in" from the other party. But he didn't think about it, but a moment later he heard footsteps approaching the door, and the door was opened from the inside by the owner of the office.
This is still a little sudden for Lei Yi, who has done a good job of psychological construction so easily. In his expectation, he should have come face to face with his manager a few dozen seconds later, or rather...... Even if he walked through the door with the other party's permission, they would be separated by a desk.
Now like this...... Apparently caught him off guard.
The man who opened the door for him took a step back with the door while he was stunned, and said very gentlemanly, "Please come in." β
When Lei Yi and Nicola were still in Serie A, the latter criticized Lei Yi for deciding to make a living in football too early and ignoring cultural classes and guiding him for his "lack of education". At that time, Lei Yi was still held in the palm of the hands of the entire Lazio team, as long as he could score goals during the game and respect his teammates enough, no matter how much he made trouble. At that time, Lei Yi was not impressed by this criticism of his defeated general, but at this moment, when he stood here, he would be able to feel and recall the good upbringing and demeanor of this Frenchman in this period of getting along.
That made Lei Yi realize that this person was indeed qualified to criticize others for not being educated enough, but he was also qualified to criticize this person's bad personality.
Thinking so, Lei Yi pursed his lips and looked at the man after the other party sat down in front of him. What he was going to do next was something he had never done before. But in order to be able to do what he wanted, he had to try to do it.
But when it really came time to kick the door, Lei Yi felt a little nervous again, and he also wanted to find out the draft he had written for a long time last night from his pocket, and then see how the first sentence was written.
But the silent and aggressive gray eyes were already looking at him. So Lei Yi had to bite the bullet and say the words he came up with the night before, which came out of his heart:
"In this team, we recognize each other earlier than everyone else. I think when I was still playing for Lazio and you were still at Juventus, we didn't like each other. But there's one thing we've always done well, and we've always been honest with each other. Although, the fly in the ointment is that we always show this honesty to a third person when facing media reporters. β
Hearing Lei Yi's words, the Frenchman, who always smiled in front of Lei Yi, was actually amused by Lei Yi's unconscious humor in this sentence. Of course, he knew that the "frankness" that Lei Yi said was the criticism he had made to him in front of the Italian media, and of course he also knew that Lei Yi's "honesty" was still the questioning and mockery that this long and short leg that people loved and hated so much had unconsciously questioned and mocked him.
"I think I should probably retract my evaluation of you at that time, it seems that you did not neglect your cultural courses, you have a certain literary literacy."
Lei Yi, who said that sentence hard, never thought that he would get this from the other party, so he couldn't tell whether it was a sincere praise or a deliberate mocking "praise", when he heard the sentence "literary literacy", Lei Yi had to cry and laugh again!
But he could only continue: "What I mean by this is that I hope we can continue to be so candid in today's conversation." β
Nikolai: "Great opening statement. β
Lei Yi gritted his teeth in hatred, but he could only say well: "In the past few weeks, we have been caught in a cold war. This cold war bothers me, but I believe it should be more than just me. Because the ball drought is really bad, but I'm still the best striker you've ever had. This kind of cold war makes it impossible for me to play and makes you have to abandon the best striker in the team at all times. β
As he spoke, Lei Yi paused, and then said: "I have listened to your tactical explanations very carefully, and I also know what you need your striker to do for you in the game. β
For a sky-high striker who has never scored for his team since moving to a new club, Raywing's words are clearly too arrogant. However, the manager, who said "you can't do anything" to him in the last game, did not mock him at such a time, but only patiently listened to him and asked:
"So?"
"You need me because I'm strong." -- This is a declarative sentence that does not require excessive emphasis on tone. And when Lei Yi said this, Nikolai's mouth did not show the same sarcasm as usual.
He looked at Lei Yi, not thinking about the truth of the sentence, but at Leiy Ha, who could say such words, completely different from the confused and lost legs when he first arrived at Tottenham.
The word "continue" came clearly from the thin lips of the Frenchman, and Lei Yi continued: "I know you don't like me, and I can confess to you that I don't like you either." But that's okay, we didn't come to Tottenham to make friends. You want to win, I want to win, that's all that matters. β
Nikolai, who hadn't taken his eyes off Thunder Wing since that moment ago, was silent for a moment after Thunder Wing had said this, and he said, "I have a hunch that what you are going to say next will be the key to your decision to come here today for a conversation with me. β
Hearing this, Lei Yi was stunned, and then said honestly: "Yes." Next round of the league we travel to Manchester United's Old Trafford. My friend Thigos will be the heart of United's attack in this game. I want to start this game. β
β¦β¦β¦β¦
On October 17, the ninth round of the Premier League this season, Manchester United played Tottenham Hotspur in the morning.
At half past four in the morning, the birds of London were chirping. These sounds are not enough to wake those who are sleeping soundly, but they can make those who are awake feel the breath of dawn coming.
At this time, Lei Yi, who was lying on the bed, originally closed his eyes tightly, but when he heard those lovely bird calls, he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed. He would love to get up now! But reason reminded this boy who was ready to get up for a morning run just after five o'clock on weekdays over and over again in his heart: No, no, no, you can't get up now!
And the reason why he can't get up so early is, of course, that he will have a game today! Although he is about to turn 22 years old and has long and short legs, he has a lot of energy, but on a race day, especially on a morning like this important race day, he can't do that!
So Lei Yi, who wanted to keep his physical fitness in the best condition, turned over in bed! Their head coach set a meeting time of 9 o'clock and then they had to take the club's bus to one of London's many train stations and take the train to Manchester!
Cruel!
After thinking about the process they would go through before arriving at Manchester United's Old Trafford, Ray Wing found that not only did he not experience even a little sleepiness, but he became more and more energetic in bed, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became!
So he simply put on thick pajamas and pajamas, stepped barefoot on the woolen carpet that was spread next to the big bed, and when he saw several lovely little guests coming to the small balcony outside, which was still only shining in the dark night, he quickly opened the floor-to-ceiling window in the room that connected to the small balcony.
It was already cold in London in mid-October, and the hotel in the city of London, which was temporarily rented by the Thunder Wings, was already heating up at this time. It was precisely because of this that when Lei Yi pushed the bed away, a chilling cold wind rushed towards him.
Now, it can completely freeze people's spirits!
And after shivering, Lei Yi and the few little birds on the windowsill met their eyes unexpectedly. I saw that those little birds that he didn't know exactly what kind of breed they were opened their round eyes and made a crisp call to him!
Seeing such a scene, the long and short legs just want to say: I, I, I, I promise you everything!
Thinking so, Lei Yi remembered that there was a pack of tortilla chips that his father bought in the living room of this hotel suite! So he said to the birds in Portuguese, "Wait for me, I'll get you something to eat!" Then, regardless of the fact that the British birds did not understand the Brazilian accent of Portuguese, they quickly ran out of their room, and within two minutes turned over the disassembled tortilla chips that had been mixed with a lot of unfinished appetizers, and then ran back to their room in a cotton slipper, and when they saw that the birds were still there, they happily reached into the bag, grabbed a handful of corn chips, and spread their hands to the birds.
But the birds that were perched on the windowsill and on the balcony were extremely cautious, looking at Lei Yi and the corn flakes in his hand, tilting their heads, as if they were hesitating to eat the food in this man's hand.
Seeing this scene, Lei Yi moved very lightly and slowly to scatter the small handful of corn flakes in his hand on the ground on the balcony, and he took a few steps back. After this, the birds became bold, and one of them flew over and picked up a corn flake as if it were a sudden attack, and then pecked at the corn flakes on the ground after seeing Thunder Wing slowly sit down, and had no intention of approaching here, and ate it in small bites.
Seeing that his companion had already eaten, the other two birds who were watching soon joined in the cornflake peck!
But Lei Yi watched these little cuties eating their corn flakes, and was just about to grab a large handful of corn flakes from the packaging bag and spread their hands towards them, but they were attacked by these ruthless little bastards in the process of moving towards the windowsill little by little!
In this way, these cute, cute, and cute-looking little cuties ruthlessly carried out a ruthless "pecking" attack on the thunder wings whose name is also a bird! And snatched the bag of corn flakes from his hand and flew away! Flew away!!
But the stunned Lei Yi sat on the ground and laughed after being stunned for dozens of seconds.
Immediately after, he wanted to go back to bed to sleep, but he couldn't sleep anymore, tossing and turning, and the corners of his mouth were always upturned! And so it was until seven o'clock in the morning, and his mobile phone Twitter app reminded his good friend Tigos that he had just posted the first status of the day!
[I'm about to meet my good friend ha, looking forward to it! ] #θηΉζη¦εΎ·ηεΊ#, #ζΌθvsηεΊ#! γ
Lei Yi, who brushed out this state, was very happy, and replied to the other party, "I miss you so much!" After that, Lei Yi rolled over from his bed for the second time this morning. And this time, he walked to the closet. There, hanging the No. 11 Lazio shirt he didn't wear, this season. But he just kept his eyes on the blue shirt for a moment before taking out the shirt next to the blue shirt that belonged to Tottenham's No. 11 HA.
He took the jersey out of his closet and stood in front of the mirror and compared himself......
