Volume 1: Male Haunted, People Pay Attention to Chapter 184 Second Forced Chen Yingxiong
Chapter 184
When Chen Yingxiong was sweating profusely in the dungeon, his cell phone rang.
Chen Yingxiong is used to receiving calls when training in the dungeon. He exited the training copy very skillfully, and in the blink of an eye, he had already appeared in his bedroom.
It was Dracula, the agent.
Just when he connected the phone, he suddenly felt that this scene was very familiar - did he experience it yesterday? Why is it so familiar?
But...it doesn't matter, don't care!
"What's the matter, Mr. Aurora?"
"Naples is looking for you."
The feeling of déjà vu became more apparent.
"Why do I feel like we talked about Naples..."
"Yesterday, this time."
"Oh—but didn't I reject them?"
"Well, yes, it was Naples looking for me yesterday. It's Naples looking for you today."
"Looking for me? Isn't it the same as looking for me and looking for you?"
"I'm looking for you by name. The other party wants to meet you."
"who?"
"The boss of Naples."
"Huh? Ah?" Chen Yingxiong's brain didn't react.
"Have you seen "The Silence of the Lambs"?"
Chen Yingxiong asked in surprise: "He took the picture?"
"No, his uncle took it."
Chen Yingxiong pouted. "whispering sound."
"Aurelio de Laurentiis is the legend of Italian cinema and the nephew of the producer of the "The Silence of the Lambs" series, Dino de Laurentiis. He is an Italian film tycoon, one of the top ten richest men in Italy, and the chairman of the Naples club. He entered Naples in 2004 and saved this bankrupt team..." Dracula is like a human Google Baidu, and Naples coach Aurelio de Laurentiis The basic information of Laurentiis was reported.
"The owner of the club? Come to me specifically? Interview?" Chen Yingxiong felt that this matter was a bit... er, fantasy.
The club owner should be a person of high status. At least he has played in Zenit for almost two years, and he has not met the chairman of the Zenit club. The person he has the most contact with is the head coach.
"I think it has something to do with you rejecting their contract."
Chen Yingxiong grinned. Unexpectedly, I rejected the Naples contract, and even seduced the big boss behind Naples.
He suddenly felt that he had great face!
"See you?" Dracula asked.
"Oh, since they came all the way to see me... Do you think it will be more awesome if I refuse again?"
"Hero..." Dracula felt that it would be too bad if he really refused again, and was about to speak out to dissuade him.
Chen Yingxiong laughed to himself: "Just kidding, the owners of other clubs have come here in person, so sincere. No matter what I say, I want to meet. Whether to go or not is another matter, and meeting will not lose a piece of meat."
Aurelio de Laurentiis looked at the big man sitting opposite him with great interest. His figure was mighty, but his face did look childish. It could be seen that he was really a man who was not yet twenty years old.
At the beginning, Chen Yingxiong was still sitting upright, thinking that when he met someone of the level of the club owner, of course he should not behave too frustratingly.
But he didn't seem to be the type to play this kind of role, so he sat pretending for a while, and his posture became crooked...
De Laurentiis saw this performance in his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face-like his goal, he is really not a person who can pretend.
Simple and direct, full of power and aggression.
"Are you here to negotiate a contract with me, Mr. Laurentiis?" Chen Yingxiong really didn't get used to this atmosphere. In the luxuriously decorated high-end Italian restaurant, the melodious and melodious music during the meal was like an appetizer, making people feel happy and appetizing. The diners were whispering, and everything seemed so quiet and gentle.
This is completely different from the Chinese restaurants, Russian restaurants, Turkish restaurants, etc. that he likes to go to.
He has stayed in St. Petersburg for nearly two years, let alone such a restaurant, but he has never heard of it. Unexpectedly, De Laurentiis would meet here. When he heard the name, his first reaction was: "Is there such a place?"
When Dracula brought him here familiarly, he was sitting in the passenger seat and turned to look at Dracula in surprise: "Have you been here?"
"I have Google Maps." Dracula replied calmly.
"..."
De Laurentiis smiled. He is now more and more interested in this hero Chen, because he seems to be able to see his own shadow from him. As a person in the film and television industry, he is also a rebellious character, especially when he was young, and now he is old, and he still has the same style as before.
And he knew that Chen Yingxiong, known as "the little prince of nightclubs in St. Petersburg", was a romantic seed, which was quite similar to himself.
He thought this might be one of the reasons why he was particularly interested in him in the first place, right? There seems to be something attracting each other in the dark. It turns out that he and this person have many similarities...
"No, hero. I'm here to tell you what kind of team Naples is." De Laurentiis stirred the coffee in his cup with a spoon, but kept his eyes on Chen Yingxiong.
"I think you may have misunderstood my team... Do you want to hear my team's first five-year plan?"
The life of Naples these years can really be described as "a history of blood and tears".
Since 1994, the long-time old chairman Corrado Ferlaino (Corrado · Ferlaino) chose to quit because he could not continue to spend a lot of money. Since then, the successive bosses have no intention and ability to turn losses into profits in the face of the dismal financial situation.
The financial disputes between the bosses continued, and finally in 2004, the local court ruled that the club was bankrupt. At that time, Naples lost 79 million euros. The Italian Football Association ruled that Naples can only stay in the professional league after the new owner re-injects capital, and must start from the third level, otherwise the team will be kicked into the amateur league.
Perugia boss Luciano Gaucci (luciano·gaucci) once planned a rescue plan, but failed because of insufficient funds. The current chairman, Aurelio De Laurentiis, handed over 30 million euros to the court to ensure that the hometown team stayed in Naples and also saved this once brilliant and legendary team.
But when he first took over the team, he was very desperate—the club had no equipment, no training ground, and everyone could only train in the hotel garden or on the lawn of the park, and there was no uniform training uniform. Everyone wore their own jerseys and T-shirts to participate in training.
Worse still, there are no players. In addition, the team cannot use the original name ssc · napoli to register, only to register the team name with napoli · soccer.
But all this did not deter De Laurentiis, he injected funds, and then poached Marino, the general manager who is good at running the team, from Udinese. At the same time, the hard-working Reja (edy·reja) was recruited as the coach, and he was digging around for players, and finally caught up with the registration of the Italian C1 League in the new season. Naples, a team that has suffered a lot, is finally back on the track of revival.
When De Laurentiis took over the team, he formulated a five-year plan-it took five years to return the team to the Italian Football League. As a result, the team did it very easily, and it was quite successful. In the summer of 2007, it took only three years for his team to be promoted to the first division and return to the top stage of Italian football.
"Although our first five-year plan is only one year away, as a boss, we have to look a little ahead. So I'm thinking about making a new five-year plan for the team. Do you know what my second five-year plan goal is?" De Laurentiis looked at Chen Yingxiong and asked with a smile.
"Qualified for the European competition?" Chen Yingxiong asked. This was the most reliable goal he could think of.
"No." De Laurentiis shook his head. The Italian movie tycoon stretched out two fingers proudly, "In the second five years, become the world's top giants!"
Chen Yingxiong's manager Dracula, who had been accompanying him all the time, heard this, raised his head and looked at De Laurentiis.
A team that just returned to Serie A last year and is considered a newly promoted team this season, actually said such bold words that it will become the world's top giants in six years. This person either has extraordinary self-confidence and ability, or is a complete lunatic or a liar...
De Laurentiis enjoyed the mild surprise in Dracula's eyes. The second five-year plan was not decided just now on a whim, but had been planned for a long time. Whenever he said this to others, others would look at him with surprise and disbelief.
Everyone knows how ambitious and... difficult this goal is.
And at this time, De Laurentiis has a particularly sense of accomplishment—you don't believe I can do it, do you? But I just want to do it! When I do it, I want to see your expressions that are a hundred times more surprised than now! ha!
He originally thought that Chen Yingxiong would also look surprised. Unexpectedly, Chen Yingxiong just whistled: "Wow! Cool! You are such an ambitious boss!"
Chen Yingxiong was not surprised, nor did he think this idea was too crazy. Because he is not the kind of person who would have such an idea!
Just like Zenit St. Petersburg met Bayern Munich in the UEFA Cup semi-finals, many people now feel that Zenit's UEFA Cup journey this season is over. But Chen Yingxiong didn't think so, just like he said to Kerzakov: "I'm afraid it's a bird!"
So he didn't think there was anything wrong with the five-year plan—whether it can be realized is one thing, but whether you dare to think about it is another.
Whether Zenit can finally defeat Bayern Munich and advance to the UEFA Cup is a very realistic thing. Maybe, maybe not. But at least before that, you have to dare to think. If you can't even think about beating Bayern Munich, you don't even have to play this game, because we will lose!
Some people dare not think, most people dare not think, but Chen Yingxiong dares. This is a kind of unreasonable and inexplicable self-confidence. In the eyes of many people, it is completely unfounded conceit and arrogance, which is a typical manifestation of arrogance and ignorance.
Many people even say that Chen Yingxiong is two, very two, and very two, and they have their reasons—the unfounded arrogance is indeed quite two. But maybe it is such two people who can create possibilities when everyone thinks "this is impossible!"
Just like the match between Zenit and Marseille, the first round was played 1:3. Everyone felt that "Zenit is finished, they will definitely be eliminated. If you want to come back at home, you can only pray for a miracle!" "What? A home reversal? This is impossible! Marseille, which leads by two goals, is absolutely impossible to let Zenit come back in an away game!"
But what happened?
"Miracle! Miracle! Miracle was born!!" Shirgeevsky's words are still ringing in the ears of Zenit fans.
The person who led this miracle was not God, but that particularly naughty Chen Yingxiong.
Because the second force Chen Yingxiong does not follow the principles that most people follow, general, common sense, truth, laws... etc. are messy but can restrain them. He has his own set of principles and reasons, that is - Do I want to do this thing? If you want to do it, then do it. If you don't want to do it, then don't do it.
Do I want to beat Bayern Munich? think! really want! Then do it, what about the Champions League-level super giant Bayern Munich? Afraid of it being a bird, fuck its mother!
Do I want to throw in the towel? In no mood! Absolutely not! Then I will grit my teeth and refuse to admit defeat. In the face of the contempt of the CSKA youth team and the teasing of the assistant coach Latish, I will find an opportunity to slap you, I will make you unhappy, you want to read my jokes, but I will not let you read my jokes!
So everything fell into place.
In the eyes of others, this is unreasonable, generally speaking, it does not work, and it is not a universal truth generally pursued by the football world. But it is in line with Chen Yingxiong's common sense and principles. Only a dude like him can do it. The most important thing is that he doesn't think it's an act of duress, he's not ashamed of it, but proud of it.
This is my hero Chen's style! dislike? Then you have to learn to adapt.
After De Laurentiis heard Chen Yingxiong's response, it was his turn to be surprised. But he quickly reacted, he even started to laugh, at first he just smiled, then he simply grinned and laughed out loud.
Wearing trendy Ray-Ban sunglasses, this man in his fifties is stylish and tasteful. He has a special style when he smiles, and it can be seen that he doesn't care about worldly vision.
After laughing, he said to Chen Yingxiong: "My team is now ranked ninth in the league and has the opportunity to participate in the Toto Cup in the summer. In the Toto Cup, eleven teams will eventually qualify to participate in the UEFA Cup. They have just been promoted for one season and they can qualify for the European war. My team is currently profitable and in a good financial situation. I have never been stingy in investing in the transfer market. I have an ambitious second five-year plan. These five years are a critical period for the team. Have you ever seen a relegation team like this?"
He looked at Chen Yingxiong with a confident smile on his face.
