Chapter 3 (11)

Gao Jinsong didn't see Yao Yuan in the base cafeteria during lunch, and it seemed that the punishment of the ban on Yao Yuan was not as indifferent as he appeared. Think about it, if you don't meet this unlucky thing, the title of champion and the honor of the top scorer, how can you make Yao Yuan's life more comfortable in the future, and his popularity is not bad, the team has also changed the coaching team, and no matter how hard he works, even if he doesn't dare to think about the position of the main force, at least he can compete for the bench of the substitute, and then show up in the league every now and then, with Yao Yuan's ability, he can always gain a little bit in a season, and it is good to stay at that time, at least he can say two hard words, Not to please this and that as you are now. Hey, it's all to blame on the black-hearted referee! However, Yao Yuan himself is also responsible, and he is not a fledgling boy, why can't he control his hands and feet?

Because he felt worthless and sorry for Yao Yuan, Gao Jinsong's mood was also a little low, and he ate something indiscriminately and went back to the dormitory.

Lunch break is a habit he has developed over the years, as long as conditions allow, he usually takes a nap after lunch, the length of time is uncertain, even when he is working in the Olympic mall, he will take time to take a nap; After playing again, this has become a habit that cannot be shaken, even when the team in the new era is the most difficult to hit the first B, others are sad about the final future all day long, and he can be confused for a while. Wei Honglin, who lived in the same room with him during that time, once said to him enviously: "Are you confident, or are you heartless?" He didn't know what kind of person he should fit into. Have an ace up one's sleeve? Definitely not. There were times when he was so distressed that he couldn't sleep. When the old provincial team just announced its disbandment, he often slept unsteadily all night, worried about his future, and fantasized that the provincial sports committee could take back his life, or he looked forward to being looked at by a first-class club, and he could have the opportunity to continue his dream. Heartless? This is even less so. He is neither the coach of the team nor the manager of the club, whether it is tactical arrangements or personnel scheduling, it is not his turn to worry about anything, what does he do if he doesn't sleep, can it be said that arguing with Wei Honglin for a few words can teach the team to advance smoothly? Take 10,000 steps back and say, he's not even a main player, just a substitute, what he needs to do is to make himself in good shape at all times, and when the coach assigns him to play, he can immediately get into his role, play his level, and work with his teammates to make this game have a satisfactory result...... Or to boil down these bits and pieces of thought into a simpler sentence: be worthy of the money the club pays him.

Of course, he wouldn't tell Wei Honglin about it, and it was impossible for him to tell it to others, because he couldn't say it. If others misinterpret his meaning and see him as a person who has gotten into the eyes of money, he will have no face. As for why he thought this way, he couldn't figure it out for a while, either because he subconsciously thought he should have done it in the first place, or because everyone around him was doing it. Sometimes he was ashamed of his dirty thoughts, and he should have found a more noble reason and would have found such a reason, but he would not have wanted to, because it was indeed the truest thought in his heart. He can't even fool himself, can he?

So he usually uses the word "habit" to explain his lunch break, and everyone is willing to accept this explanation, of course, some people kindly tell him that napping is not a good habit, it will make people feel more tired and unable to concentrate, and tell him conclusively that these are all knowledge from newspapers. He didn't really care. As long as he thinks it's good, what does it have to do with the newspaper?

But today at noon, he was a little upset, lying in bed tossing and turning, and he couldn't sleep.

He turned on the TV and changed the TV channel randomly, but there was no program he liked to watch, and he finally found a TV series that he could watch, but he inserted a long commercial every few minutes, which made him even more anxious. In the end, he turned off the TV and rummaged through the desk, hoping to find a book to pass the time. He moved a little too much as he tugged at a biography pressed under the stack, and as a result, his elbow knocked over the video tape next to the stack and fell to the ground with a clatter.

Drinking cold water will also stuff your teeth!

He slammed the door in anger and ran to the gym to work on his strength......

Yao Yuan found him when it was almost four o'clock, and told him about going into the city to play at night.

"Don't go!"

Yao Yuan's eyes widened, he didn't know where he provoked him, and he took a long time before he spoke: "Didn't you say it all?" How do you change your fortune temporarily? - I've taken it all in. He grabbed Gao Jinsong's sweatshirt on the chair and threw it over. Hurry back and take a shower and clean up. Talking is their time off work – go to dinner first, then sing. It's all mine! ”

"No, no." Gao Jinsong took the clothes, wiped the sweat on his face, squatted under the barbell again, and used his shoulders to find a suitable position to struggle.

Seeing that his attitude was more resolute, Yao Yuan was also a little anxious: "I'm creating opportunities for you!" ”

"I'll leave the opportunity to you." After saying this, Gao Jinsong ignored him again.

Yao Yuan angrily and hatefully touched him for a long time, and finally gave up the idea of persuasion, so he had to run to explain to others. But Gao Jinsong stopped him again.

Gao Jinsong carried the barbell and was silent for a long time, and finally just said apologetically: "Another day, Brother Yao, I don't have a mind today." Why don't you do it another day, I'll have time another day, I'll ask you. ”

Yao Yuan glanced at him, nodded silently, and left "Be careful" and went.

After being disturbed by Yao Yuan for a long time, Gao Jinsong lost the momentum to practice, and more importantly, he suddenly found that his anxiety and boredom this afternoon were not for no reason, and it had nothing to do with Yao Yuan.

What really made him unable to let go was Yao Yuan's words: Head coach You Shen wants to return to the base today. It is conceivable that Director You will definitely talk to him after returning to the base, and the content of this conversation will determine his position in the team in the future. The thought that his future fate would most likely begin with this conversation filled his heart with apprehension and anticipation. You Shen values him very much, he knows this, and judging from the fact that You Shen has been in contact with him after the end of the second division league and recruited him into Wuhan Yafeng Club as soon as possible, You Shen is also full of confidence in him. These make him very grateful and proud. But valuing is not the same as reuse, and confidence is not trust, so he does not dare to take the upcoming conversation lightly. In fact, from the moment he heard the news from Yao Yuan, he was preparing for this conversation. And he also realized that even the seemingly random mutual feeding and shooting with Yao Yuan was something he deliberately did to show You Shen subconsciously - look, even when you were away, I still didn't lower my strict requirements for myself! But he now knew that he had done a terrible job, and if it really fell into You Shen's eyes, it might have the opposite effect of his wishes. Could it be that he is especially cautious about what he has been doing in the base these days? He practiced shooting on the playground without a single grass in the winter, isn't it to please and sell well? If you really saw it......

Fortunately, it was not seen by Director You.

Once he realized his stupid thoughts, he felt that he should be angry with Yao Yuan, who was kind-hearted, which also made him have no intention of continuing to practice. But he can't get out of the gym yet. If you happen to bump into Yao Yuan and those two women when you go out, everyone will be very embarrassed. He had to continue to keep the barbell pressed against his shoulders, panting and squatting, standing up, squatting, and standing up again......

All that was left of the huge gym was the monotonous sound of metal crashing and regular heavy breathing.

Gao Jinsong didn't see Yao Yuan at dinner, and it was estimated that this guy had already gone into the city to eat his never-ending Wuchang fish, and then began to find another place to show his musical attainments. Thinking about it, Gao Jinsong admired those two women a little, I don't know how they could endure his metallic rubbing singing, in Gao Jinsong's opinion, even the goose that was choked by the neck may be better than Yao Yuan.

After eating, he walked around the base and went back to the dormitory. It was still early, and at this time the TV was basically children's programs, so he took a book and sat on the sofa. "Rommel Biography", this is his favorite biography, the story of the famous German general during the Second World War, he is fascinated. He has read this book many times, but when he has time, he always likes to take it out and flip through it, and he doesn't particularly pick chapters, he starts from where he turns, sometimes he reads it too intently, and he will cover the book and sigh silently.

No sooner had he entered the world described in the book than a rhythmic knock on the door pulled him back into the real world.

The person who knocked on the door was You Shen.

Gao Jinsong hurriedly let the head coach into the room and poured water to make tea. He wasn't used to drinking teabags, and boiled water didn't taste good, so he bought two taels of good tea when he went to the city a few days ago, and now it just came in handy.

You Shen, who was sitting on the sofa, smiled and watched him running around washing teacups to find boiling water, and didn't stop him, but just raised the cigarette in his hand and asked, "Where is the ashtray?" ”

Gao Jinsong put down the steaming teacup and was busy again, and finally found the ashtray under the pile of videotapes. It's the holiday period, and the staff in the base are not so conscientious, according to the rules, there should be a room every morning, and the cleaning is usually only once in three or four days, and it is not serious and meticulous. But Gao Jinsong and Yao Yuan, who didn't go home and stayed well, were not easy to worry about with others, so after a little time, the house was a little messy.

You Shen beckoned, "You sit too." He pointed to the couch next to him. Look at me, I called you here and never came to see you again......" He smiled, paused, and said, "How is it?" I've been here for so many days, are you used to it? ”

Gao Jinsong sat on the edge of the bed, and when he heard the coach ask, he quickly said, "Get used to it, get used to it." The conditions are very good......"

You Shen pinched the remaining half of the cigarette roll on the glass ashtray, twisted his fingers, picked up the tea, took a deep breath, and praised, "Good tea!" He took a sip and said with a frown, "Why does it smell so good, and it doesn't seem to taste good when you drink it?" ”

Gao Jinsong is not easy to answer. He can't say that the manager doesn't know the goods, right? He had no choice but to smile and not answer.

Fortunately, You Shen's attention was already attracted by the two gold-plated utensils on the table.

"Your prize in the Indoor Soccer League?" You Shen took the two gadgets curiously, flipped them in his hand, and flicked them lightly with his fingers, and asked with a strange expression: "Ceramic?" ”

Gao Jinsong was a little embarrassed. The organizers of this event are so capable, I don't know what these guys think, it is better to get two ceramics to be coated with gold, it is really better to get two glassware, at least that thing looks crystal clear, and it looks bright wherever it is placed.

You Shen lit another cigarette and asked, "Yes, although the provincial team didn't catch anything, if you get these two things back, it can be regarded as winning glory for our club." A few days ago, General Manager Wu also mentioned this, saying that he was going to give you some bonuses. He glanced out the door and added, "And Yao Yuan." ”

And Yao Yuan? Gao Jinsong was a little flustered. But he was immediately happy for Yao Yuan again. In this way, it seems that the club not only does not mean to punish Yao Yuan again, but will also compensate for his ban.

You Shen said to himself: "Of course, there is an additional punishment for him. It may be a three-month suspension of wages and subsidies, or a six-month suspension of training, but the specific result will not be decided until the club talks to him. He glanced at Gao Jinsong, and then lowered his eyebrows. So his attitude and his awareness of this matter are very important. ”

Gao Jinsong, who was taken aback by You Shen's first half, immediately breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. In this way, it seems that the club's punishment of Yao Yuan is just a formality, maybe that inexplicable bonus can make up for the losses that Yao Yuan may suffer. He secretly made up his mind, if it was possible, he would relay Director You's words to Yao Yuan tonight, thinking that this guy should know how to deeply review his mistakes when the time comes.

Just when he was thinking nonsense, he coldly heard You Shen ask again: "I heard that the first goal you scored this time was scored by a long-range shot?" ”

"Huh?" Gao Jinsong, who was a little distracted, hesitated twice before reacting, "Yes, it was the fourth minute of the second half of the first game, and the distance was about twenty meters, and there were a few ......people apart," he said a little excitedly. That goal was wonderful even for him, it was still between four or five players on both sides, and being able to score a goal from such a dense crowd in such a small field, even if there was a lot of luck and luck, still made him feel a little proud and proud.

Judging from the situation outlined by Gao Jinsong's even words and comparisons, You Shen also thought that the goal was very exciting, and he not only said regretfully: "It would be nice if there was a video......

Gao Jinsong couldn't help but be a little discouraged. Yes, it would be great if there was a video, and there was a home camera on the team at that time, but no one thought of videotaping the game, and the streets and alleys of Kunming were filmed a lot.

"I remember that the first goal you scored in the second division was also a long-range shot," You Shen looked at him with a smirk, "Do you like to use this method to ...... Come on......" He didn't know how to describe his feelings, and he mentally pondered his words. "Do you like to prove it with long shots...... Or ...... "Declaration" He felt that neither "proof" nor "declaration" was appropriate, but he couldn't find the right words for a while, so he had no choice but to say, "Do you always like to use long-range shots to show your own state?" ”

Gao Jinsong frowned and thought about it, there seemed to be no such thing. The long-range shot he scored in the second division was because he found that the opponent's goalkeeper was too far forward, and he could catch the opponent off guard when shooting at that distance, so he chose to shoot; This time, it was because he happened to find that there was an angle between the crowds that was enough for him to shoot, so he picked up his feet without even thinking about it, and the goalkeeper of indoor football can also participate in the attack, and when he shoots, the opponent's goalkeeper is not even in his sight - the ball is scored only to find that the guy is actually behind him......

You Shen was so amused by Gao Jinsong's description that he almost squirted out a sip of tea.

After laughing for a while, You Shen pointed to the videos on the table and asked, "Have you seen all of these?" ”

Gao Jinsong nodded.

You Shen picked up a tape and looked at the instructions on the side, looked at the videotapes a few more times, and asked suspiciously, "Why are all the videos of our club?" ”

"I've just come to the team and I'm not familiar with anything, so I'll take a look at these first." He scratched his head embarrassedly, "The main thing is to get acquainted with the situation of my teammates first, to see what habits everyone has, in case there is a chance to cooperate in the game in the future, it is better than a black eye." "Of course, if you are familiar with these people's running routes and receiving and passing habits, you can also have some tacit understanding in training, so that the time for him to integrate into the team's technical and tactical system can be shortened accordingly. What's more, he wants to understand Wuhan Yafeng's style and habitual tactics - judging from the videos seen so far, the team's preferred tactics are also defensive counter-attacks, which means that he is likely to be on the bench.

You Shen put the tape back on the table, and said leisurely after a while: "It seems that you are also prepared for my conversation with you today." ”

Gao Jinsong didn't squeak.

"Our team has been in the team for a long time, but most of the time it is a team that belongs to the second division, and it is difficult to gain a foothold when it is occasionally promoted to the first division, and the longest time is only two years." You Shen swung around the edge of the ashtray and wiped off the ash, and continued, "The difference in strength makes it difficult for the team to let go of the attack in the game, even in their own home stadium, against a slightly stronger opponent, it seems to tiptoe, and they dare not press too high, and they are always afraid of conceding goals – and of course, they always have to concede goals." He looked at Gao Jinsong and smiled. Gao Jinsong also smiled. 'It's hard to change that, even though most of the players in the current squad have moved from other teams in the last two years, but it's hard to change traditions and habits, it takes time, you need the right people, you need the club, the coaches and the players to work together......

Gao Jinsong nodded. He understands that.

"So it's not going to happen overnight to change the team we have now."

This time, Gao Jinsong didn't nod. It's not something he's a new player can be involved in or evaluate. All he can do now is sit quietly and listen.

The room was quiet, except for the faint sound of the air conditioner working.

After a long pause, You Shen said slowly, "...... Be patient. ”

After saying this, he stood up and walked from the door, saying as he walked: "You see Yao Yuan tell him for me, just say that I will wait for him in the office at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon." ”
