Mashki is a very practical person, he passed the medical examination in the morning, and he trained with the team in the afternoon.

In fact, Mashki's move will be seen as a very anxious desire to join Imabari FC, which is very detrimental to his contract negotiations. However, this also shows the sincerity of Mashki's desire to stay, and Imabari FC will also consider this favor when making a contract offer.

Mashki's salary when he was in Serie A Parma was not high, the weekly salary was only 3,000 euros, and I don't know how Imabari FC and Todd finally negotiated, Lin Hong only knew that Mashki had already worn the Imabari FC jersey printed with the number 32 when he trained the next day, which means that he was already a player of Imabari FC.

Kazuyuki Toda's muscle strain is almost over, although he has not yet participated in the team's joint training, but I heard that a Serie A player came to him as a midfield partner, and Kazuyuki Toda still came. He led Mashki into the locker room to introduce the players to him one by one, and everyone welcomed Mashki's arrival, especially after seeing his strength, they were looking forward to a bright future. When Lin Hong was introduced, Mashki gave Lin Hong a big hug.

Seeing that Mashki had gradually integrated into the team on the field, Kazuyuki Toda had a smile on his face, he was a player and a member of the team's coaching staff, so he knew exactly what Mashki's arrival meant.

"Our goal this season is probably even further!"

Imabari FC is in the JFL League, no matter how far they go, they just win an amateur league championship, and then play J3 next season.

It's just that the club only knows about the team's ultimate goal this season.

Takeshi Okada nodded in agreement, "That's right. Although our average age is not very large, we have hopefuls like Daisuke Yoshii and Lin Hong in the players, and you in the midfield, and now with the addition of Mashki, we are not afraid of the average J3 team. ”

Kazuyuki Toda was very impressed with Takeshi Okada's words, and he even thought that if the current Imabari FC met the Gifu FC more than half a month ago, maybe it would not be so difficult to win at all.

Not only because of the joining of Mashki, but also because Lin Hong is stronger again.

'The game in three days is our first home game of the new season and I want to play.

Kazuyuki Toda has been actively cooperating with physiotherapy these days, and now he is completely pain-free, and his upper body strength training has resumed, and he does not want to miss the first game at home.

"I asked the team doctor and he said that your recovery is good, you can resume training tomorrow, but don't force your strength, I will only arrange you to be a substitute in three days, and I will not play more than 30 minutes without accidents."

Kazuyuki Toda is very satisfied with the manager's commitment, as long as he can play to help the team, he doesn't care how much time he has.

According to the usual practice, Takeshi Okada really announced the eighteen-man squad at the end of the training, and the new addition Mashki was impressively listed, and the most surprising thing for everyone was that the name of captain Kazuyuki Toda finally appeared in the squad.

After the list was announced, everyone dispersed, and Mashki pulled Lin Hong aside, "Lin Hong, I want to invite you to dinner!" ”

Lin Hong knew that Mashki was invited for his agent Todd, "Just the two of us? Your wife won't be jealous! ”

"Well, I'm still not good at lying. Actually, it was Todd who invited you to dinner, and he heard that you don't have an agent yet, so he wanted to try it and recommend himself. Accept the offer if you can, because Todd is such a nice guy, both as an agent and as a friend. ”

Seeing that Mashki was so simple, Lin Hong stopped playing tricks on them, but turned to worry about another problem. "Are you sure he's going to invite me to dinner?"

Mashki didn't understand what Lin Hong meant, but he didn't seem to be repulsive, so he said happily, "Yes, that's right, he's happy." ”

Lin Hong didn't have a salary advance, so he was still a poor ghost, but he knew that Mashki and Todd were not much better than him. Moreover, Todd mortgaged his apartment to have the money to come to Japan, and if he was so poor that he couldn't even afford a ticket back to Italy, he would be guilty of sin.

However, Lin Hong really wanted to have a good chat with Todd, and the agent's matter couldn't be delayed any longer.

Last night, Furuta Akira was replaced again, and the new Fukada Mei didn't talk about martial arts, and she wanted a video just after chatting a few words. The video is just that, can't you wait until you're done with a shower before opening the video?

Lin Hong swore that he had only watched it for less than three minutes, and at most he would hang up the video for more than two minutes and fifty seconds, because the seal left by the female bodhisattva in his heart was almost unbearable. Of course, the most important thing is that Lin Hong is not sure if he will become the second Peng Chacha if he continues to watch it, and the ghost knows if someone on the other side of the video is recording himself.

……

Japan is a very meat-loving country, especially fish and beef.

Beef Lin Hong thinks that it is still the best made by Chinese, and most of the fish is eaten raw in Japan, which Lin Hong is still not used to.

However, Lin Hong is very yearning for another kind of meat, that is, venison.

There are many places in Japan that have farms that specialize in raising deer, and as a market supplement to beef, ordinary venison is not so expensive, and it is cheaper than beef.

Lin Hong happened to have never eaten venison, and it just so happened that a few days ago, his teammates recommended to him a restaurant specializing in venison in Imabari City, and said that even if Lin Hong had a big appetite, he would not be unable to afford it, which means that Todd's payment would not make him bleed profusely, uh, well, not to the point of arterial hemorrhage.

The owner of the venison shop was very excited to see Lin Hong, and excitedly said that he would deliver food to them. Lin Hong wanted to say that he would send it next time when I paid by myself, but unfortunately he still wanted face, so he didn't say it.

The owner's craftsmanship is really good, whether it is charcoal-grilled deer heart or fried deer steak is very delicious, the only problem is that the speed of serving is a bit slow.

Todd and Mashki looked at each other, both of them looking incredulously at the stacking empty plates, and Maria could only cover her mouth and laugh, thinking that her husband and Todd's reaction was too funny.

Todd couldn't read the Japanese on the sign and didn't see the English menu, so he didn't know the price of venison, and it would be a shame if he didn't have the money to pay the bill.

Lin Hong also borrowed money from Qin Yugang before going out, and his idea was that if the conversation was unpleasant, he could pay and leave, so this time he also let go of eating.

Lin Hong was finally full after eating two deer hearts, six deer steaks, a large deer leg, two vegetable salads and a deer liver soup, and at this time, the three people at the same table were all looking at Lin Hong with the eyes of a monster.

Lin Hong took the lead in breaking this slightly awkward atmosphere.

"Haha, let's make everyone laugh, in fact, I used to eat about the same amount as everyone else, but after coming to Japan, I received formal training, and the amount of food also skyrocketed with the amount of exercise."

Everyone ended the topic with laughter, and then Maria excused herself to go shopping, and Mashki said that she wanted to accompany his wife, so soon there were only Lin Hong and Todd in the box.

Lin Hong is not a person who likes to twist and turn, since the two of them are in love, phew, since both of them have needs, uh, it doesn't seem to be accurate.

Since Lin Hong lacked agents and Todd lacked clients, the two quickly entered their respective roles after a few words of greeting.

Lin Hong: "Mr. Todd, if I let you be my agent, I want to know what you can offer me. ”

Lin Hong's question is to the point, and there is no way to avoid it. Todd didn't think about it for too long, after all these years, it was too clear what resources he had in his hands.

Todd: "I don't want to talk about it, to be honest, I have very limited resources right now. A lot of clubs in Italy don't accept my recommendations, and I don't have much to do with companies that sponsor sports all year round. So I'm sorry......"

Todd couldn't say any more, and he even regretted inviting Lin Hong a little, not because of the meal money, but because he wasted each other's time. However, Lin Hong appreciated Todd's frankness, what Mashki said was one thing, and it was another thing for Todd to admit that he didn't have the resources in his hands.

Lin Hong: "What about clubs in other countries?" ”

Todd: "I used to have a few clubs in the French second division that I had good relations with, but over the years black players have been very successful in France, whether it's the league or the French national team, African-French players have become mainstream, and unless you show special talent, it's hard for them to accept a young Asian player. ”

Lin Hong: "Then if you recommend it now, which league will you let me go to, I want more money." ”

Lin Hong had greed in his eyes, as if everything he did was for money. Todd didn't expect Lin Hong to be so direct. Thinking that Lin Hong could have his current strength in just a few months of professional training, he only felt a pity, a pity for Lin Hong, and a pity for himself.

Todd: "I'm sorry, but if I were your agent, I probably wouldn't agree with you and give you any blind referrals. ”

Lin Hong: "Oh, why? ”

Todd: "First of all, you don't have what it takes to go to the major European leagues right now. Even if you barely go to Europe, either you waste valuable growth time in a second-rate league, or you are knocked out of the mainstream league and then return to the lower leagues of Asia until you retire. ”

Lin Hong's face became a little cold, and he showed an unruly look.

Lin Hong: "Can't I go to play Serie B now?" ”

Todd didn't change his mind by Lin Hong's change of attitude, he pursed his lips and thought for a while before saying: "You may be talented, but there are too many talented people in this world, everyone wants to become a professional player, but how many people can really play?" ”

Todd leaned back in his chair, he had a hunch that Lin Hong and he would not cooperate, so he spoke more relaxedly.

'You're fast, you're good at breaking, and if you're lucky enough to stay in Italy and play, you're most likely to be deployed on the right side as an attacker.

At first you may be able to impress with your speed for a while, and then your agent will ask the club for a raise. Even your status as a Chinese player can bring you additional sponsorship fees, and you'll become a multi-millionaire, with all those beautiful three-page girls and models going around you.

But you can never stand still on the football field, your opponents will study your style of play and technical characteristics, and if they can't hold it, they will foul you. Then you're going to get hurt, then you're going to come back, then you're going to get hurt, and then you're not going to be sharp, and then you're not going to be sharp.

Maybe with the Chinese market and commercial value you can still have a club contract extension, but you can only become a mascot and become a water cooler manager.

Eventually, you'll retire in your thirties, and maybe the team will have a headache because of the loss of you, but the fans won't be reluctant to retire in the slightest, and you'll soon be replaced by another younger you.

Of course, you will still be rich, and that money may not be spent in your lifetime, or it may be lost in two or three years.

This situation is very common among players in South America and Africa, and many of them are now living on the streets, and many are in prison or even alive.

Is this what you want? ”
