Pick up from back:

When Nuan Xiaoxi went to the hotel where Liu Xinyang lived in Shenzhen and wanted to surprise Liu Xinyang, Nuan Xiaoxi himself was frightened by Liu Xinyang. Liu Xinyang seriously proposed to break up with Nuan Xiaoxi, although Nuan Xiaoxi didn't understand why, he had to accept it because of the existence of Huakate.

When Nuan Xiaoxi and his driver walked to the entrance of the away fan stand, which is also the home of the Shenzhen team of the domestic first-class football league, an old man had been standing there waiting for Nuan Xiaoxi for a long time. This old man is the one who has been trying to comfort the lost Nuan Xiaoxi last night, so Nuan Xiaoxi also revealed his identity, and the two continued to chat.

"It's not easy to give up your rights, you are young and brave enough to give up your rights, and you are willing to give up your rights, at least you are half of the success of this." The old man looked at Nuan Xiaoxi and said, what he said was very sincere.

"Haha..." Nuan Xiaoxi laughed.

"What's wrong?" The old man looked at Nuan Xiaoxi and didn't understand.

"If you've never had rights, you don't care about the happiness they bring you." Nuan Xiaoxi explained with a smile.

After more than ten seconds, the old man nodded seriously and said, "It makes sense." ”

Nuan Xiaoxi and the old man chatted like this, waiting for the start of the game.

"You go get some tea for the old man, come quickly." Nuan Xiaoxi commanded to the colleagues beside him.

"Is it okay for the old man to be familiar with Pu'er? Or is it Pu'er? Nuan Xiaoxi's colleague asked the old man.

"This... Isn't it too much trouble? The old man said politely.

"Don't bother, you didn't sleep well last night, this little tea shouldn't be, hehe..." Nuan Xiaoxi said to the old man with a smile.

"Then I'm not polite to you, I'll drink ripe Pu'er." The old man didn't shirk anymore, and replied to Nuan Xiaoxi's colleague with a smile.

"I'm also familiar with Pu'er, thank you." Nuan Xiaoxi said with a smile.

"Hmm." After Nuan Xiaoxi's colleague answered, he hurriedly arranged for someone to fetch hot water and cups.

"Since my old man and you always have a fate, can you give me some news, haha..." The old man asked Nuan Xiaoxi with a smile.

"Why not? Some of the things that have been said in the media, since you want to ask, I will tell you the things I know. Nuan Xiaoxi replied to the old man with a smile.

"Hehe... Good, good. Then I want to think about it, in fact, there are a lot of things I want to ask, I want to think about it. The old man said with a smile, and then really began to think.

"Huh... Nuan Xiaoxi looked at the old man's appearance and smiled.

"Mr. Nuan, I don't know if it's inconvenient for Fang to ask." The old man suddenly smiled and asked Nuan Xiaoxi in a low voice.

"Huh?" Nuan Xiaoxi's expression was stunned.

"Why didn't you make the cut last year? This is something that many people are curious about. ”

"Old man, can you tell me about this matter, how did you analyze it? I also want to know, after all, you know, people around me don't tell me things. Nuan Xiaoxi also smiled and asked the old man.

"Hmmm... How so? ”

"Tell you the truth, we're all the same, and I'll tell you what I know about the actual situation."

"Well, we all thought you guys were selling in the end. Especially this year, the midfielder Jose of the Shenbei team transferred to your club, and we all firmly believe that you sold the ball to the opponent last year, resulting in the failure to advance. The old man smiled and answered Nuan Xiaoxi's question.

"Huh... Nuan Xiaoxi also smiled after hearing this, "What you said is really reasonable, I don't even know how to refute you." Ha ha... Nuan Xiaoxi himself also thinks that outsiders should look at this issue this way, after all, a midfielder like Jose as the star of the Shenbei team will not be easily sold, which means that the Shenbei team is at risk of relegation.

"Old man, before I go back to your question, I'll ask you a few more questions, okay?" Nuan Xiaoxi said with a smile.

"Well, you ask." The old man replied very simply.

"First question, do you know all the trades we have with the Shenbei team this year?" Nuan Xiaoxi asked the old man very seriously.

"This... Is this one? "The old man seriously recalled the transfer news he had seen about the Shenbei team and the Shengcheng team, but he really couldn't think of any news for a while." I really don't know, I know that Jose seems to have transferred to you for fifteen million. ”

"Well, it seems like that's all the media reported, especially since you don't have much to do with our news. But it's actually a little different from what you see, or rather, the information you see is not very comprehensive. Nuan Xiaoxi looked at the old man and said.

"Oh? I would like to hear about it. The old man also looked at Nuan Xiaoxi seriously, waiting for Nuan Xiaoxi to tell him the news he didn't know.

"We will have five or six players in the reserve squad who will be transferred to Shenbei this year, so the transfers between us are simply complementary to each other. They traded one main player for five or six main players who could play in the domestic football league, so it was not necessarily bad for the Shenbei team. Especially if we still give them a fee, they can also run the normal operation of the club with this money, so why don't they do it? Hehe... Nuan Xiaoxi said with a smile.

"Uh-huh, uh-huh..." The old man nodded.

"You can look at the news or the club's player registration form later, you can find it anywhere. But I'll tell you a secret that others don't know. Nuan Xiaoxi said mysteriously to the old man.

"What's the secret?" The old man also unconsciously lowered his voice and approached Nuan Xiaoxi to ask.

"These transfers were all promoted by our Governor Chen, who is in charge of sports, when he watched the match between our two teams, and several football clubs in our province had a friendship meeting under the leadership of Governor Chen. But we didn't attend this meeting, and the next day Governor Chen came to our home stadium to watch the ball, which contributed to this event. Nuan Xiaoxi whispered to the old man about the things behind the transfer.

"Oh... The old man was very surprised when he heard this, thought for a while and said, "You Governor Chen are really a good governor, very conscientious, amazing." The old man also sighed.

"Indeed, if such a big transfer is only promoted by the outside, it may not be negotiated until the winter transfer." Nuan Xiaoxi recalled this incident and felt that the high efficiency was indeed the support of Governor Tuo Chen.

"Well, now the price of domestic players is needed, and there are very few quality players. Now it is not easy for the star of any club to transfer, after all, the club either needs to be relegated or needs to produce results, so the transfer has become just a decoration and luck. ”

"yes, that's the big picture we talked about last night... Nuan Xiaoxi thought about the domestic football environment, and couldn't help but sigh.

"But I think it's a win-win situation. The Shenbei team has obtained a series of powerful players, and you are aiming at the AFC Champions League to work hard, which is equivalent to a successful burden reduction action. The old man commented on the action of this double transfer.

"Then there's our initial problem, the problem of qualifying last season. My second question is, if Ike hadn't been injured at the time, it was our foreign striker, do you think we would have failed to advance? Nuan Xiaoxi asked the old man a second question.

"Yes, yes, yes..." The old man also suddenly thought of Ike, the foreign striker of the Shengcheng team who had killed all sides in the domestic first division last season, "Well, his injury has really affected you a lot." Well, looking back now, you guys were in the second half of last year because you didn't have a reliable scorer in front of you. You lost a lot of games and drew in the second half, otherwise it wouldn't have reached the point where you would need to win or lose with the Shenbei team in the end. ”

"yes, we had a tight bite in the final points and second place. At that time, we couldn't even accept a draw, let alone a loss. Nuan Xiaoxi still has some regret and regret when he thinks of the original scene now.

"Why didn't you think about adding players in the domestic forward line in the summer window? At least Ike can support it when he's injured.,It's not to.。。。 After all, after getting close to Nuan Xiaoxi, the old man's tendency to support the Shengcheng picture-in-picture football team has also become obvious.

"Money... Nuan Xiaoxi said seriously.

"Well, you're telling the truth." The old man also sighed, and said that Nuan Xiaoxi's colleagues didn't know when to deliver the brewed Pu'er tea to them.

"Come on. Old man, we talked while drinking. Nuan Xiaoxi took the brewed Pu'er tea and let the old man take a few sips of it.

"Well, this tea is good." The old man praised after drinking Pu'er tea.

"Hehe... Our secretary of the municipal party committee likes this tea very much, and I have to go over and bring him some on Tuesday. Nuan Xiaoxi said proudly.

"Then I have to thank you."

"You're welcome, don't dislike it when you leave, I'll pack some for you to take home to drink." After Nuan Xiaoxi finished speaking, he magically took out a small package from his side and handed it to the old man.

"Haha... Such a delicious tea, I might as well be respectful, thank you, Mr. Nuan. The old man smiled and put away the tea gift bag that Nuan Xiaoxi handed him.

"What's polite, it's said that adversity sees the truth... Nuan Xiaoxi remembered last night's scene, and was still grateful to the old man in front of him for his enlightenment.

"People will inevitably have ups and downs, happy and unhappy, you will remember to find me when you come to Shenzhen in the future." The old man said sincerely to Nuan Xiaoxi.

"Okay, as long as the old man doesn't dislike me and doesn't feel troublesome, I'm willing to bother the old man." After Nuan Xiaoxi finished speaking, he took out his mobile phone and left contact information with the old man. "In the future, if there is something that a junior like me can do, the old man will also look for me."

"Haha... Okay, it's not easy for me to get you this old friend. The old man sighed.

"Huh... Nuan Xiaoxi also smiled, and then continued the topic just now, "Actually, when it comes to not being able to advance last year, the main root cause is that the team is not ready in all aspects." So in the end, the ball became a scapegoat or a flashpoint, or the best chance to take the blame. ”

"Hmm... The old man also nodded in agreement.

"If you're not ready, we won't talk about it, we won't be able to finish it in a day, so let's talk about the last game." Nuan Xiaoxi took a sip of tea and put it on the table.

"Good. Good... ”

"I must have doubts about this last ball, and I even suspect that this ball was instructed by Governor Chen behind his back." Nuan Xiaoxi looked at the game that had begun in the stadium and said meaningfully.

"How?" The old man looked at Nuan Xiaoxi and was surprised when he heard Nuan Xiaoxi's conclusion. "I can't understand it, after all, you don't have a domestic Super League team in the province now, why shouldn't you let the Shenbei team let you go? That's in the best interest of the governor, right? Now it's obviously no performance, at least not even a so-called effect. The old man quickly analyzed with Nuan Xiaoxi.

"Hehe... I thought so too, so I'm just guessing right now. After listening to what the old man analyzed, Nuan Xiaoxi looked at the old man and said with a smile.

"Then what are the reasons for your suspicions? At least your province has the opportunity to make a profit, so you have the motivation to promote this ball, right? The old man asked Nuan Xiaoxi puzzled.

"Actually, I can't figure it out, but at that time, all the sixth senses, including the sixth senses of important people around me, were directed to the province." Nuan Xiaoxi looked at the stadium again, recalling the original situation as he spoke. "Actually, I felt it before the game at that time, and that feeling was amazing, and often all the people and things around you made you unconsciously feel that you were going to fail first."

"Huh? What does that feel like? The old man asked.

Nuan Xiaoxi turned his head to look at the old man and said, "Actually, it's all the superstitious things you find or people's habits, such as what clothes you like to wear when you win, or shoes, or the foot that goes out first." That's when all these signals tell you, lose! Strange? ”

"What does that have to do with the province?"

"Coincidentally, they weren't optimistic about us at that time. The key is that at that time, we thought that our strength was far above the Shenbei team, at least many people from the outside world also thought so. But... Nuan Xiaoxi stretched out his voice.

"But what?" The old man asked curiously.

"But this year we are so well prepared, it is the foreign aid James, the left back Ma Fei, and the hat trick Yang Xu promoted by the striker youth team, and the last home game is still won by the young central defender Li Weifeng playing forward and heading from set-pieces, hehe... Nuan Xiaoxi laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Haha..." The old man also watched the game, so he laughed too.

"You're right? In fact, this is the charm of the football game. ”

"It's not like that, haha..." The old man also agrees with Nuan Xiaoxi's point of view.

"So later, if you hadn't asked me about it now, I would have been relieved." Nuan Xiaoxi said this matter with a smile, "This year's ball happened to be watched by Governor Chen on the spot, and the kick was thrilling, and the governor and his secretary were excited to see it." ”

"No, when I watched the TV broadcast, I thought it was a really good game." The old man also said with emotion.

"Hmm. Well... Nuan Xiaoxi also nodded, "But this year's book strength is good, or our winning streak at that time, and the other factor is the home field, everything, actually... Nuan Xiaoxi shook his head after speaking.

"Isn't it, but is it because of this ball that you guys started to talk about Jose?"

"Yes, it was this competition that Governor Chen felt that Jose was really good, and then helped us advance the negotiations. In fact, we have also negotiated with the Shenbei team before, but there has been no progress, and this time the province has spoken, so it has advanced quickly. Is it nothing more than everyone's interest? Last year, a few people who performed mediocre and we felt that they were not suitable to play in the domestic Super League were transferred to them. ”

"Uh-huh, uh-huh..." The old man agrees with the operation of this transfer.

"How did the old man listen? Satisfied? Cool? Nuan Xiaoxi asked the old man with a smile, and looked at the old man with a satisfied smile.

"Well, Mr. Nuan is really refreshing." The old man was very happy, "Why did you transfer Jose to the Hangzhou team when you hit the promotion this year, and didn't go to the Didu team to grab the central defender He Yang?" ”

'Because we have two people transferred, one is the foreign centre-back Arbido. We planned to buy this person back and then sublease it to the Changchun team to offset part of Wang Dong's transfer fee. You also know that we can't do it in the midfield now, Xiao Zhao is a future star who has just been promoted by the youth team, so he can't use it now, right? Besides, whether it is Jose or Gotze, they are all organization types, so Wang Dong must buy it. ”

"What about Zhang Ye? What about Li Tie? The old man asked.

"Li Tie is going to Europe in winter, or in summer. I'm not specifically responsible for this, but you also know my own management ideas. Nuan Xiaoxi looked around and whispered.

Two months later, when the old man saw Li Tie's transfer to the English Premier League on TV, he shook his head with a smile. muttered, "You kid really didn't lie to me, and sure enough, I didn't misunderstand you... ”

"Huh?"

"Really, otherwise how would we sign these potential stars in China? We all promised that we would make up the difference in wages in the future and send it to Europe to play. ”

"Why?" The old man didn't understand.

"Two reasons, the first one, the reason why domestic players don't play abroad now, didn't we talk about it last night? The second reason is that we are also afraid of exporting to domestic sales. So we pay our wages now, which looks like a loss, but in the future, they will have to come back to us, and we can sell them a second time. Nuan Xiaoxi explained without reservation.

"Well, well, that makes sense. Nuan is always a great person and does things in the long run. After listening to this, the old man gave Nuan Xiaoxi a thumbs up.

"Hehe... There's no way to be poor... Just when Nuan Xiaoxi laughed and laughed at himself, a big event did happen in the stadium.

What's the big deal?

Predict what will happen next, and listen to the next breakdown.

End of this chapter.

Postscript (illustrations, tidbits, extras):

A few years later, the old man saw the news of Nuan Xiaoxi's trip to Europe in the news, and talked about the past with his grandson and son.

"I didn't live in vain in the end of my life... The old man sighed.

"Grandpa, can you still contact Mr. Nuan now?" The old man's grandson asked curiously.

"Yes." The old man replied in the affirmative.

"Oh?" The old man's grandson was a little incredible.

"He still sends me a message every year during the holidays... After the old man finished speaking, he left a lot of happiness.

Every Spring Festival, Ma Feifei was busy, and later this matter fell to Jiang Kaile.

"Who else hasn't sent a gift?" Jiang Kaile asked his assistant.

"Mr. Nuan's gifts have been mailed out, but do you want to take a look at this?" Jiang Kaile's assistant pointed to the name of the old man in Shenzhen and asked.

"Huh? Did you have a reply from the last holiday? ”

Jiang Kaile's assistant flipped through the previous record, "Yes." ”

"Go on." After Jiang Kaile finished speaking, he turned around and left, and now Jiang Kaile is exactly the same as Ma Feifei, so the current Jiang Kaile has also become the old woman that many people talk about behind their backs.
