Chapter 37 The Second Chinese Coach
In this way, Gao Hongbo worked in the Lazio coaching staff as a "guest coach".
At noon that day, Chang Sheng introduced Gao Hongbo to his colleagues.
The introduction he used was: "China's most promising young head coach", which made Gao Hongbo a little embarrassed.
Compared with Chang Sheng, what kind of future do you have?
Chang Sheng told his colleagues on the coaching staff that Gao Hongbo was here to learn, so if he had any questions, everyone should try their best to answer his questions. At the same time, it also allows Gao Hongbo to ask if he has questions or if he doesn't understand, here, there is nothing to be embarrassed about.
Since you are here to learn, you must learn thoroughly, and you can't learn half of it.
He also told Gao Hongbo the address of his home, and if it was inconvenient to communicate on the phone, he could come to Changsheng's home at any time to communicate.
During afternoon training, Chang Sheng introduced Gao Hongbo to the players, telling them that from now on, the Chinese coach with the same yellow skin and black hair as him will also be part of the Lazio coaching staff.
However, due to identity issues, Gao Hongbo is not qualified to sit in the coach's seat in the game.
However, Chang Sheng gave him a home seat closest to the dugout.
That way he can look at the game from the perspective of a manager.
At the same time, he may be able to hear the voice from the dugout, which will also help him learn how to direct on the spot.
Gao Hongbo couldn't be more satisfied with Changsheng's arrangement.
Compared to his previous plan, it was the best now.
He can really get into this coaching team and learn the most advanced training and tactics in Europe.
He is now even more confident about his future.
He knows that he is short on time, and there is not much time left for him and Chinese football.
So he will work and study without sleep or food.
It's like a sapling, frantically sucking nutrients.
As for Chang Sheng, he seems to see the shadow of his "elder brother" in Gao Hongbo, who is crazy about studying.
He thought that his "brother" might be the same when he traveled to Europe at his own expense. It's just that he doesn't have as much luck as Gao Hongbo, and he has his own help.
He endured an unknown number of rolls. I finally had the results later.
Fortunately, his current results have not disgraced him......
It's just that...... When he left China and came to Europe to study, was his heart full of the ideal of returning to China to serve the motherland after completing his studies, like Gao Hongbo?
※※※
The media also quickly discovered that Lazio's coaching staff had an additional Chinese who was the same as Chang Sheng.
But they weren't very interested, and the coaching staff was only interested in winning.
The exception is the Chinese media.
The few Chinese journalists immediately recognized that the Chinese coach who appeared at Lazio Vermello's training ground was ...... Gao Hongbo!
Gao Hongbo is also a celebrity in Chinese football circles.
It's true as a striker, it's the same as a coach.
He led Changchun Yatai to the Chinese Super League championship in 2007. This is the fourth team in Chinese football to win the top league championship since it became professional!
Moreover, Changchun Yatai is not a traditional strong team like Dalian, Shandong and Shanghai, and it is even more difficult for them to win the league championship.
This achievement is highly contributable.
At that time, Gao Hongbo was also elected as the best coach of the Chinese Super League.
However, the 2008 season is suitable because of the general. He was forced out of class by the team. Then he disappeared from the public eye, concentrating on taking care of the children at home and resting.
In the face of other coaching invitations. He didn't say yes either.
No one knew what he wanted to do.
I didn't expect him to be here and become a coach of Lazio!
Is it an invitation from Changsheng?
After the training, Gao Hongbo was surrounded by Chinese reporters: "Director Gao, why are you here?" ”
Everyone still calls him by the name he calls him in the country.
And Gao Hongbo also wants to call reporters "teacher" when he is in China.
"Ah, Mr. Chen, you are also coming to Italy? I'm here to study in Lazio. Gao Hongbo said with a smile.
"Studying?" A group of reporters was surprised. What do the best coaches in the Chinese Super League learn?
"After class in Changchun. I realized that I still had a lot to offer, so I decided to come and learn from the best team right now. Gao Hongbo introduced.
"How's the study, Instructor Gao?"
"Very good and very beneficial." Gao Hongbo nodded and said.
The reporters were good at reading the face, and they carefully observed Gao Hongbo's expression when he said this, and found that he did not seem to be lying.
It's really beneficial.
But it's only been one day!
Gao Hongbo seemed to notice the doubts and surprises of the reporters. He said with a smile: "Every training detail of the top European teams is worth studying and thinking about carefully. Even the warm-up exercises, I benefited a lot. ”
Then he was reluctant to say anything more and politely bid farewell to the reporters. And walked away.
His wife works in the press office of the Chinese Football Association and deals with the Chinese media every day, so she naturally knows very well what the virtues of these media reporters are.
Just like women and villains, if you are close, you will not be grandchildren, and if you are far away, you will be resentful. It's not good to have a relationship with them that is too close. It's totally okay and it's not good.
After politely answering the reporters' questions, he was reluctant to say more.

The news of Gao Hongbo's study and work in Lazio soon spread to China through these media.
There was also a wave of surprise in China.
No one knew that Gao Hongbo hadn't seen him for a while. I went to Lazio......
After being surprised, many people felt that this was a good choice, and it was better to go abroad to develop than to stay at home.
And he has even won the Chinese Super League in China, what else does he have to pursue? Could it be that he still wants to be the head coach of the national team?
Chang Sheng has made a start for Chinese coaches, that is, not to be limited to the domestic environment, to go out bravely. Players can stay abroad, and coaches can stay abroad.
The backwardness of China's football level is not only due to the fact that the players are not as good as others, but also because our coaches are also not as good as others.
Otherwise, why does the Chinese Football Association always look for foreign head coaches? Isn't it that the future monk will chant sutras?
From Schlapner to Houghton, from Milutinovic to Alihan. From Dujkovic to Forado, in the end, he would rather replace Gao Hongbo, who led the team with a good result, and used a second-rate Camacho in Europe......
If the level of Chinese coaches can also be in line with the world, maybe our Chinese football level will be improved and improved. Don't talk about the system, this problem can't be changed. But just because there is a problem with the system, you can't put all the blame on the system, and then you don't do anything, you only know how to scold the system, that's not what people who do the right thing should do.
Within the framework of the system, we will try to improve the strength of Chinese football as much as possible. Even a centimeter of progress is progress.
It takes the players and the coach to work together.
If the players want to stay abroad, the coaches can also leave a message!
As a pioneer of Chinese coaches, Changsheng has laid a good foundation for Chinese football in Europe.
As long as you do have the ability. is also open-minded and studious, as long as he is willing to let go of his treatment as a head coach in China, starting from a primary school student, he will inevitably learn something.
In theory, that's a beautiful vision.
If we have more Changsheng and Gao Hongbo. Why is there no way out for Chinese football?
But the actual situation is very cruel, Chang Sheng has been working hard in European football for nine years, and now there is only one Gao Hongbo who came to him to study and work in Lazio.
Is it because Gao Hongbo is very smart and thinks of things that others can't think of?
No.
In fact, it's just because I went abroad to be a grandson, where is it cool to be an uncle in China?
As a coach in China, you can receive red envelopes. You can bet on balls, you can take kickbacks...... There are so many benefits, regardless of the results of leading the team. This team has allowed itself to be relegated. Change teams and keep eating. Someone will always pay for themselves.
When I went to Europe, I didn't have any of these privileges. You have to be called around by those foreigners like a grandson, and you have to work very hard to do something that you don't do in China for a long time, and you can't do much.
There is one more important reason...... In fact, the level of the vast majority of Chinese coaches is not at all looked down upon in European football. Even if you come to the door, you will only eat closed.
How much did Chang Sheng suffer when he was studying in Europe? His experiences were heartbreaking. The listener wept, and few people could hold on.
He persevered for more than ten years before he had what he could achieve.
Who is willing to endure more than ten years of hardship. Just for a future that I don't know if I can succeed?
With this time, he has been an uncle in China for more than ten years, and he has already made a lot of money.
Therefore, Chang Sheng is the first Chinese coach to study abroad at his own expense, and after so long, Gao Hongbo has become the second.
※※※
Because of Gao Hongbo's relationship, the Chinese media has paid more attention to Lazio.
After all, there are two Chinese coaches in this team, and their Chinese elements are increasing, and Chinese fans are paying more attention, and the Chinese media will naturally meet their wishes.
The reports of the Chinese media have made many Chinese media have a more favorable impression of Lazio.
They even jokingly called Lazio "an old friend of Chinese fans."
Because Lazio is cultivating excellent coaches for Chinese football!
Chang Sheng has already achieved fame, but Gao Hongbo still has infinite possibilities, so they are now more willing to pay attention to Gao Hongbo. Even Chang Sheng was robbed of the limelight by him.
But I always win, but I don't care about that.
Chinese fans fantasize that in the future, after Gao Hong's erudition, he will go out and go to the end of the world and become a manager like Chang Sheng, leading a European team to gallop on the European stage.
"Don't come back if you mix well!" This is the ardent expectation and entrustment of Chinese fans for Gao Hongbo.
Sometimes Sheng will point to such words on the domestic Internet to Gao Hongbo.
Gao Hongbo just smiled and didn't say anything.
Who knew that this skinny man had a big idiot dream in his heart?

ps, there will be a single chapter later, and I will talk to you about why I wrote such a plot
