Chapter 171: The Dust Settles (3)
In the end, Chelsea came out of nowhere, beating Manchester United, who was once unashamed, and Liverpool, who played the love card, and took the lead in signing Wang Li. It can only be said that their pound attack is really powerful, and although many super-big stars disdain this kind of club, it is still good for a new star like Wang Li to choose this place, at least Chelsea are full of vitality--- a rich owner, a young manager and the passion of a new giant.
A weekly salary of 80,000 pounds, an increase of 20% per year, and a five-year contract!
This contract is considered a high salary even at Chelsea, where wages are generally high. Of course, this has a lot to do with Wang Li's low transfer fee, you know, Manchester United has offered Rooney a transfer fee of 25 million pounds, but Everton, who wants to make a lot of money, still disagrees, they shout that Rooney is not for sale at the club, which even local fans in Liverpool City do not believe!
Who doesn't know that Everton's chairman is a miser and owes a ton of foreign debt?
In short, Wang Li's transfer wave has come to an end, and next season, he will join the Blues and continue to compete in the Premier League!
…………
At noon on July 2, Wang Li came to Stamford Bridge alone, followed the staff and found Mourinho.
"Boy, I've watched your performance at the Euros and it's really good!" As soon as they met, Mourinho patted Wang Li on the shoulder and praised him.
With messy hair and a crooked tie on his chest, Mourinho's first impression of Wang Li was sloppy, yes, sloppy! However, Wang Li didn't see that kind of arrogance in him, but in terms of temperament, he was more like the kind of technical employee who worked hard, and he couldn't see that he was a dignified club head coach at all.
"Thank you." Thinking that this person was about to become his coach, Wang Li had some doubts in his heart, but he still replied politely.
"Let's go, don't let those annoyances wait." Mourinho said a few words and walked first.
At this time, the press conference was already crowded, seeing Mourinho and Wang Li walking in, all kinds of cameras were immediately aimed at them, the flash was on non-stop, Wang Li looked at the flow of people in the audience with some surprise, you know, when he signed Wolverhampton, there was only one old Wood witness. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, large clubs are different, and a small signing ceremony was held so grandly.
In fact, it's all his own reasons, when he was Wolverhampton, he was not famous at all, and now that he has become a well-known England superstar, the focus of attention throughout England, and of course the treatment will be different.
Taking advantage of Mourinho's painless speech on the stage, Wang Li looked left and right, among this group of reporters, there was another acquaintance, it was Xue Tao, and there were two reporters with cameras next to him, it seems that the intern reporter of "Sports Week" has been promoted. Wang Li smiled and nodded to him, he still had a good impression of this Chinese reporter.
After Mourinho's speech, reporters immediately turned their attention to Wang Li, who is the protagonist of the day.
In the face of the flashing lights one after another, Wang Li is very calm, after a year of training, and the experience of the European Cup, he has grown up, although there will still be a little satisfaction in his heart, but this can no longer affect his external emotions.
Since the press conference, Wang Li has maintained a gentlemanly smile, although he does not like it.
'Alan, why did you choose Chelsea? It is said that two days ago, your agent was still negotiating with Liverpool. As soon as Wang Li sat down, a Guardian reporter immediately asked.
Wang Li thought for a while, and after a while, he said slowly: "Because I like London, I like Chelsea, I like the fans here, I grew up in London since I was a child, and I have always had a dream, that is, to play at Chelsea and become a member of the team to win the championship, so when Mr. Mourinho invited me to join the team, I came!" ”
Hearing this answer, the reporters in the audience were directly dumbfounded, 'Like Chelsea? What a liar! Who doesn't know that he was a pure Arsenal fan as a child! This thought flashed through almost everyone's minds at the same time, and just one answer made them upgrade Wang Li's position directly from 'hairy stupid boy' to 'cunning little fox'.
However, Mourinho nodded with satisfaction after listening to this passage, a seventeen-year-old boy can say such 'affectionate' words in public, it can be seen that he is not a short-tempered hairy boy, such a player will not at least not have conflicts with his teammates in the locker room no matter how he plays.
"So, can you tell us who the player you admire the most in the team?" A reporter saw that Wang Li seemed to be a bit old and cunning, so he immediately changed the topic.
"Huh...?" Wang Li looked left and right, as if he was thinking, and then said: "A lot, you know, I have a very good relationship with Frank and Wayne, and in the national team, our cooperation is also very tacit, as for appreciation?" I think I appreciate every player, there is an old Chinese saying that one out of three people must have knowledge that others don't understand, and I think it can be applied to football as well, and I am willing to ask each teammate about their own shortcomings. ”
This answer made the reporters a little confused, but they still probably understood the meaning, many people in the audience, especially the Chelsea reporters, had a little affection for this new kid, hard work will succeed, should be more respected, they are more looking forward to Wang Li's performance next season.
"That sentence is 'threesome, there must be my teacher', Alan, do you know China very well?"
This time it was a beautiful female reporter next to Xue Tao, Wang Li didn't know her, but he still smiled politely at her, "You know, my father is a Chinese, and he is a teacher." ”
The female reporter's name is Li Lin, she just came to London this week, and she has been staring at this big boy since Wang Li first came in, and the purpose of the company sending her to London is to get more news about Wang Li. Looking at Wang Li's smile, she felt that today's task was not difficult to complete, at least this goal had a good attitude towards reporters. If the Portuguese Lusa community of Curilt. When Sandro learns what she thinks, he may burst into tears, sadness and despair...
After Wang Li finished answering, Li Lin immediately continued to ask: "What is your favorite number, and can you get a starting position at Chelsea?" ”
"I like the number 21 the most because I have that number in the national team, and I am very confident that I will get the main position, and I will prove myself with my quality and win the trust of the manager." In fact, the 21st is the son of Wang Li who came to this world, and for him, this is very commemorative.
Subsequently, Li Lin asked a few more questions about his daily life, and then other reporters also asked some painless questions, Wang Li answered them carefully one by one, he knew how he first came, and it was better to keep a low profile, so as to gain the favor of reporters and fans. Of course, the most important thing is strength, as long as you can play well on the pitch, no matter how arrogant your attitude is, you will not be criticized, this is the reality of football.
Overall, although Wang Li doesn't like being interviewed, he is now very experienced in dealing with reporters. And these reporters are not too difficult for him, you know, he is now the red man of the whole of England!
…………
After the press conference, Wang Li did not stay at the club for long, but went straight home and began to pack his luggage, he has already booked his ticket for tomorrow morning.
The next morning, a civil airliner set off from London Airport, headed east, and a few hours later, landed at Pudong International Airport...;
