Lu Bing looked left and right, looked at the crowded media seats, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "There are so many reporters in a Serie B match, it's like a group of sharks that smell blood." ”

Wang Yixing next to him hurriedly said: "Hey, we are also reporters!" ”

Lu Bing smiled: "Didn't we follow the smell of blood." ”

When they just knew that Gao Zheng was in Sampdoria, the domestic media was very excited for a while, after all, as a talented player who has been famous for a long time, football reporters are no strangers to Gao Zheng. After leaving AC Milan due to a serious injury, it is a living inspirational drama to see him rise again!

It's too gimmicky, it's too hype-worthy.

So Hula came ten Chinese journalists gathered in Boriasco, the site of the Sampdoria training base, and they immediately became the most high-profile group of people in this small population town.

The residents of the small town of Boriasco naturally knew what these Chinese reporters were here for, and they gave a thumbs up and said "high". This excites Chinese journalists and thinks they've come to the right place.

So one after another reports about Gao Zheng flew back to China.

During that time, Chinese fans were most familiar with articles like this:

"The residents of the town praised Gao Zheng and called him the hope of Sampdoria!" 》

"Gao in the eyes of Sampdoria fans: he is a peerless genius!" 》

"I saw a photo of Gao Zheng in a bakery, and his popularity is beyond your imagination! 》

"The Bakery Owner Tells a Gao Zheng We Don't Know! 》

"Small Town Celebrity Gao Zheng! 》

"The core of the reserve team, once staged a supergod battle in the finals! 》

……

At that time, Chinese football had just experienced a storm of anti-crime and evil, and even the executives of the Football Association were not spared, and people who were previously in news programs were imprisoned.

Chinese football has also fallen into a period of low ebb.

At this time, everyone needs a character who can inspire people.

Gao Zheng, a super genius who was once expected by everyone, appeared again in a timely manner.

Gao Zheng, who appeared like a phoenix nirvana, suddenly attracted everyone's attention at the first time.

After confirming that Gao Zheng has entered the Sampdoria first team squad, everyone began to look forward to Gao Zheng being able to represent the first team in the league.

Although it is a Serie B league and there is no broadcasting right in China, everyone is still looking forward to it.

didn't wait for Gao Zheng to appear.

Not only the league, everyone went to the pre-season warm-up game, and they didn't see Gao Zheng's appearance record.

Although everyone knows that there is still a big gap between the reserves and the first team, if the reserves play well, they will not necessarily be able to play in the first team right away, and they still need to adapt.

But with such a high level of attention, the game can't even get into the squad, which still makes the Chinese media very frustrated.

Chinese reporters asked head coach Atezori at a press conference when he would be able to play, and each time Atezori always said that Gao Zheng was not ready, that he was not physically strong enough to fight the brutal and rude defense of the second division.

Later, the reporters stopped asking, because if they asked, they would definitely answer this question, and they would never be ready. However, it is not easy to become strong in the body, it is by no means an overnight thing, it is a long-term process.

Doesn't that mean that Gao Zheng won't be able to get a chance to play this season?

The reporters had a lot of complaints about the manager's arrangement, and they could see that the head coach's attitude towards them Chinese reporters was not good, and his answers were very perfunctory. So another reason why the reporters didn't ask was that they were worried that they would anger the head coach and make the head coach angry with Gao Zheng.

Gao Zheng doesn't appear, lacks enough news materials, and it makes no sense to continue to stay here, after all, they have spent so much manpower, financial and material resources to report on Gao Zheng in a foreign country, if Gao Zheng doesn't even have a minute's chance to perform, they really have nothing to report.

When I first came to Boriasco, I felt that this place was a treasure trove about Gao Zheng, and any person on the street could tell you about Gao Zheng for a long time. But with Gao Zheng's delay in playing, the situation in the town can no longer say anything new.

It would be unwise to stay here at such a time.

As a result, Chinese journalists began to leave Boriasco, Genoa, and Italy.

So far, only Lu Bing and Wang Yixing are left, both of them are still journalists based in Italy, but they have also returned to their respective cities, one in Milan and the other in Rome.

If it weren't for the fact that before this game, I heard that Gao Zheng was put in the competition squad, I am afraid they would not have come.

They are here to expect Gao Zheng to play, and those Italian colleagues, the focus is probably not on Gao Zheng, they are here to witness the final fate of Atezori.

Lu Bing knew this very well, so he felt that those Italian colleagues were sharks that smelled blood—he was not mocking his peers, but ridiculing Atezori, the dying man.

Lü Bing would be happy if Atzori did get out of class, but not because the coach had a bad attitude towards Chinese journalists – as a Chinese journalist who had worked in Italy for a long time, Lü Bing could already make it clear that he could separate work from personal grievances.

He just felt that if Atezori was out of class, maybe Gao Zheng's situation would change.

Just two weeks ago, Genoa's largest local media "Nineteenth Century Newspaper" exposed the conflict between Gao Zheng and Atezori, saying that their tension was not caused by Gao Zheng's delay in getting an appearance, on the contrary, Gao Zheng's inability to get even a minute of appearance under Atezori was due to the conflict between the two.

The Nineteenth Century interviewed a person who is said to be close to Gao Zheng, and he has a very close relationship with Gao Zheng, and learned the reason for the conflict from the mouth of the person close to him—it is said that Atzori deliberately targeted Gao Zheng in the team, perhaps because Gao Zheng is a Chinese player.

Atezori later denied his racism against Gao Zheng in an interview, saying that he had no problem with Gao Zheng and that the media was just talking nonsense.

What is interesting is Gao Zheng's answer in an interview.

He first denied that he and the manager had a conflict, and then he said that it was just that the two of them had some inconsistent understanding and disagreements on football.

“…… He made me play the traditional big centre-forward, got me hand-to-hand with defenders in front of goal, created chances for my team-mates and occupied space in the box. I've tried to do what he says, but maybe I'm not as good as the coach, so I haven't made much progress until now......

When Gao Zheng said this, he looked depressed, as if he was really disappointed by his "incompetence".

But after thinking about it carefully, you can guess another meaning of these words - look at Gao Zheng's body, combined with other people's evaluations of Gao Zheng's style of play, how can Gao Zheng be the material for playing a big center? Atezori also insisted on transforming Gao Zheng, did he have water in his head?

Bruni, the head coach of Sampdoria's reserve team last season, stood up for an interview after the conflict between Gao Zheng and Atezori was exposed, saying that Atezori did not find Gao Zheng's instruction manual and used the wrong method, so how could he see a Gao Zheng like that in the reserve team? He also criticized Atzori for only increasing the risk of Gao Zheng's injury, which is not helping Gao Zheng improve, but will ruin a genius.

Bruni led Sampdoria to the reserve league title last season, and his correct use of Gao Zheng was an important reason why Sampdoria's reserve team was able to win the championship in the second half of last season.

He is not a well-known person in the coaching world, but if you want to talk about Gao Zheng's understanding, then I'm afraid no one can compare to him.

With the contradiction between Gao Zheng and Atezori as the fuse, there was a wave of calls in the media asking Atezori to leave class.

Wang Yixing was also looking at those Italian colleagues, and he frowned: "Old Lu, of course I also hope that Atezori will get out, but I am also a little worried." ”

Lu Bing asked strangely, "Worried?" What to worry about? ”

"I think it's obvious that the Genoa media used Gao Zheng as a gun in order to bring down Atezori. The whole thing broke out because the contradiction between Gao Zheng and Atezori was exposed, and in order to make their actions convincing and justified enough, they blew Gao Zheng into a peerless genius in the propaganda - during this time, I have read a lot of reports about Gao Zheng from our peers, and they dug deep into the history of Gao Zheng's training in the AC Milan academy, and Gao Zheng won the honor of the best U16 player that year...... As a result, AC Milan lay down and let go of Gao Zheng's youth director Philippe Ghali is considered to be blind...... Now there is such a trend of thought, as long as anyone who stands on the opposite side of Gao Zheng is a villain. To be honest, I don't really like this kind of thinking, I think it's dangerous. ”

After hearing Wang Yixing's words, Lu Bing's expression also became solemn.

Because he felt that what Wang Yixing said was very reasonable.

In order to get Atezori out of class, the entire Genoese media fell into a certain frenzied atmosphere, looking at their touts, it seems that whether Sampdoria can return to the first division depends on whether Gao Zheng can play. The biggest crime of Atezori's dismissal is to continue playing like this, Sampdoria will be farther and farther away from promotion, and the reason why the results are so poor is that Gao Zheng is never allowed to play......

Doesn't this mean that Gao Zheng's appearance in the game is forcibly linked to the future and fate of Sampdoria's promotion?

There is a word called "killing".

Although the hype of the Genoese media may make Chinese fans happy.

But any sane person should smell the danger from this touting.

For a young person, such a tout is very harmful.

When Atezori is out of class, the media can't say that what they said doesn't count, right? Everyone will remember deeply how the media touted Gao Zheng.

At that time, the pressure will be all on Gao Zheng's body.

How high he is praised now, I am afraid that when the time comes, I am afraid that he will fall hard.

Even the slightest problem will be magnified countless times, and then it will be held on.

This is a pressure that even many experienced veteran players, let alone young players, may not be able to bear.

Perhaps for Gao Zheng, Atezori's dismissal does not mean that he has turned over, but another terrible trap......
