Chapter 337: The New Homo Economicus?
Looking at the Korean team members celebrating wantonly in the picture, Li Liang couldn't tell what it was like.
After becoming a professional player, the first live broadcast of the national team was such a defeat, and he was very unwilling.
What would it be like if you were on the field? Li Liang thought about it for a long time, and until the broadcast was completely over, he didn't come up with a reason.
So far, the most intense match I have participated in has been against Paris, but it is completely different from the national team.
There is no doubt that the technical and tactical level of the game against Paris is higher, but Li Liang feels that the national team game is more like a war, with more pressure and more fierce confrontation.
After the game, the call for Li Liang to be recruited into the national team on the Internet became louder and louder, and Li Liang had a strong urge to land and reply.
He very much wants to say, everyone, give the national team more trust and support! There's more to the game than you think......
He still held back, if he spoke out at this time, it would definitely bring more unnecessary trouble.
Five days later, the second match of the national team will be played at the Fengyang Olympic Sports Center, while Li Liang continues to live in his apartment and Latubi base.
During this time, he received a call from Jose Mourinho. Mourinho suggested that he strengthen his physical training, he believes that Li Liang's physical energy is too much consumed in the game confrontation and ball protection, if he improves his physical strength, it will be of great help to save physical energy.
Mourinho added: "Lee, after the match against Paris, future opponents will be watching you, and you will have more and more problems in the game in the future, so you must be prepared for that! ”
Adams also spoke to Li Liang on the phone, and Adams, who has started a new job in China, said on the phone: "Li, everyone around me is asking, should this guy be selected for the national team? ”
Li Liang replied, "Tony, I feel like I'm still far behind!" I hope that one day if I do make the cut, I will not disappoint everyone! ”
……
During this period, he also received a lot of calls and messages that wanted to interview him, but Li Liang ignored them, and Biel Gazi of the team newspaper wanted to give him an exclusive interview, but Li Liang also politely declined.
Although he is not yet a member of the national team, now as a focus figure related to the national team, Li Liang does not want to cause chaos at this critical moment.
At noon on September 4, Lao Xu also called. In addition to chatting about football, he suddenly started a family routine with Li Liang.
Lao Xu asked about Li Liang's hobbies other than football, and also asked about Li Liang's plans for the future, is he preparing to play abroad for a long time? Or do you want to wait until you are old to return to China for development?
After chatting, Li Liang felt that something was wrong, and he felt more and more confused about Lao Xu's whimsical questions.
Li Liang finally couldn't help but ask, "Brother Xu, what's the matter with you?" I'm going to rest at noon and train again in the afternoon......"
Lao Xu smiled and said hesitantly: "Liangzi, that's the case, I want to retire, I don't want to work in the agent industry anymore."
Over the years, I have been running around, and I have caused a lot of bad things, causing your sister-in-law and Xiaochen (Lao Xu's son) to be frightened, and I have always felt very guilty.
I'm getting older, I'm not as healthy as I used to be, and I'm getting less and less energetic. Recently, more and more people have come to me and want to cooperate with you in business, and I am afraid of delaying your business! ”
Li Liang was taken aback and replied directly: "Brother Xu, what did you say?" It can't be because of me, right?
You just have to watch and deal with those things. You have always treated me as a family member, you just do it as a family member, I am absolutely assured! ”
Lao Xu laughed: "Liangzi, I have long planned to retire early, and they all know about the little bear." I'm not calling you today to talk about my retirement!
Li Liang, what's going on with you and Xiaoyu now? ”
Li Liang was taken aback, his brain didn't switch for a long time, and after a while he replied: "We're very good, Brother Xu, why are you asking this?" ”
Lao Xu smiled bitterly and asked again, "Has Xiaoli contacted you recently?" ”
Li Liang replied: "No contact." ”
Lao Xu sighed and said, "You, don't patronize and play football!" After speaking, he told Li Liang as he was.
It turned out that Lao Xu had already begun to prepare for retirement, and he only left his law firm, and he was already planning to transfer the consulting management company out.
After Xiaoli got the news, she began to talk to Lao Xu about the acquisition of the company, and she also wanted to gradually take over the economic contract under Lao Xu.
Hearing this, Li Liang couldn't help but be taken aback, and asked in surprise, "What does she want to do?" Want to leave the Hurricane Group? ”
Lao Xu said: "She does have such a plan! She's been talking to me about you lately.
Do you know? Since you left, Xiaoli has been silent, ready to apply for FIFA player agent qualifications. ”
"What?!" Li Liang shouted out in a lost voice, but fortunately, it was lunch break, and the restaurant door of the Latubi base was empty.
"Yes, Liangzi, Xiaoli wants to take over from me as your agent!" Lao Xu said solemnly.
"Damn, don't you!" Li Liang shouted again.
Lao Xu laughed, and he told Li Liang that recently, many powerful agents, including some internationally famous, are inquiring about Li Liang's situation.
Everyone is very optimistic about Li Liang's future development, which means that he has become a rare "high-quality resource" for these brokers
Lao Xu told Li Liang that from all aspects, Xiaoli is undoubtedly the most suitable candidate. And the most important factor is that a considerable part of the contract between Li Liang and Lao Xu is an agreement signed with Lao Xu's company.
Li Liang complained bitterly, if Xiaoli's acquisition of Lao Xu's company is successful, then Xiaoli is likely to become his actual agent!
It will definitely not be easy to talk to Xiaoli about terminating the contract, but he can't bear to discuss the termination with Lao Xu now.
If the termination of the contract with Lao Xu is successful, Lao Xu will definitely suffer obvious losses, which is what Li Liang does not want to see.
He asked anxiously: "Brother Xu, can't you transfer the company to someone else?" ”
Lao Xu said solemnly: "Liangzi, to be honest, the people who are staring at me, a company that loses money, are all aimed at you!"
If it weren't for you, I would have signed the transfer agreement a long time ago! ”
Li Liang suddenly understood that Lao Xu made this call to report to himself!
And so on, it seems like it's more than that. Li Liang's brain began to run at high speed, and he finally asked, "Brother Xu, you must have another way, right?" Otherwise, you would never have told me! ”
Lao Xu couldn't help laughing: "Liangzi, your brain is indeed fast enough." Since you call me brother, I have to ask for your opinion.
Well, call me when you're ready! I'll put down the negotiation with Xiaoli first. ”
Putting down the phone, Li Liang finally understood what Lao Xu meant-he was tactfully asking if he and Xiaoli still had any entanglements. This old Xu, Li Liang really couldn't cry or laugh.
But he immediately became nervous again, and Xiaoli's stubborn expression resurfaced in his mind. No, this little woman is too persistent, and she has to make a decision quickly.
Although Lao Xu didn't say it, Li Liang already knew what he thought.
