Chapter 410 Important Things
Hu Lai never thought that his childhood shadow actually originated from Wang Xianke, the head coach of Dashun Golden Arrow.
Before this incident, his only knowledge of Wang Xianke was that he was a very capable head coach.
That's all.
Neither like it nor dislike it.
Although Chen Xingyi couldn't play under him, that was normal. It's not like they deliberately targeted Chen Xingyi.
Maybe Chen Xingyi has some complaints against Wang Xianke in his heart, but that is also his business. What does it have to do with him Hu Lai?
He originally thought that this final final would be between Chen Xingyi and Golden Arrow.
Unexpectedly, my side is the main battlefield...
Although he has never had a good relationship with his father, and the relationship is not very deep.
But this does not mean that he will be indifferent to what happened to his father, or that he will side with Wang Xianke.
No matter what, it was his father, he and his mother were together, and he was Hu Lai.
Moreover, this matter also affected him - if his father hadn't been seriously injured and retired because of Wang Xianke's kick, how could he have stubbornly opposed his playing football?
When I was a kid, I was beaten and scolded so much when I played football that I couldn't receive formal football training until I was in the first year of high school. And because of my weak foundation, I was severely punished by Li Qingqing's father. All these debts are attributed to Wang Xianke.

"Hey, do you think that Hu Lai worked particularly hard in training, even harder than in the past few days?" In the locker room, after the team finished training, Hu Lai stayed on the court for extra practice.
The other teammates returned to the locker room and talked about the issues they were concerned about today.
"The final is approaching..."
It's not surprising that someone is.
Someone turned their attention to Chen Xingyi: "Chen Xingyi, were you with Hu Lai yesterday?"
Chen Xingyi nodded: "Yes..."
"That's because of you!"
Chen Xingyi pointed at himself: "What does it have to do with me?"
"Everyone knows about you and Golden Arrow... Honestly, do you want to prove yourself in front of Golden Arrow?"
"I think so, but what does this have to do with Hu Lai?"
"Is Hu Lai your good friend?" his teammates asked.
Chen Xingyi thought of the way Hu Lai kept spouting trash when he was playing games with him yesterday, and he wanted to shake his head and say no...
But he finally nodded: "Yes."
"Now, he must be planning to avenge you." Han Xiang Feixin said very confidently.
Chen Xingyi waved his hand quickly: "You're thinking too much, Brother Han, you're thinking too much."
"Then how do you explain why he is so desperate?"
"He also wants to win, Brother Han."
"Please note that you are so desperate all of a sudden."
"..."
Chen Xingyi didn't know what to say. He was afraid that if he continued, his teammates would have to ask him to express his gratitude to Hu Lai.
It was Qin Lin, the vice-captain and locker room boss, who came out to help Chen Xingyi: "The important thing is not for whom. This is the second round of the final and our only chance to defeat the Golden Arrow. Don't you all want to win? ? If you want to win, who cares about it? "
Chen Xingyi nodded like a fool: "Yes, yes, Brother Lin is right! For yourself, for a common goal! Weah is tired of logging!"
"There are only a few days until the game. Let's grit our teeth and work harder, but don't let your energy leak out." Qin Lin's words made everyone in the locker room nod in agreement.
Hu Lai, this little brother, has worked so hard, so how can they have the nerve to cheat on her?
When the time comes to tell the truth, it’s the big brothers like them who are holding us back. Isn’t it a shame?

"The training attitude of the whole team is very good, and the morale is high..."
Before the start of the FA Cup final, Flash Star Club general manager Dong Wen came to the sidelines of the first-team training ground to watch the team's training.
Although Flash Star's hope of overturning Dashun Golden Arrow to win the championship in the final is very slim, this is the FA Cup final after all, and it is a good thing to have high morale within the team.
As a club management, it would be unjustifiable not to take a stand at this time.
So Dong Wen came to the training ground on behalf of the club management. On the one hand, he wanted to see the team's training situation. On the other hand, it was naturally to show that the club attached great importance to this game. Of course, there were other very important tasks.
Hearing what Dong Wen said, head coach Zhao Kangming smiled: "I haven't been so high-spirited in the past two days. It's Hu Lai."
"Oh?" Dong Wen immediately became interested when he heard Hu Lai's name, "Why is everything related to him?"
"Hu Lai suddenly worked hard in training, and then led the other teammates. This is what you saw, Manager Dong."
"Hu Lai is such a good player..." Dong Wen said sincerely as he looked at the bustling training ground.
He was not trying to deal with Zhao Kangming.
He truly believes from the bottom of his heart that Hu Lai is a good player who can score goals on the field and drive his teammates off the field. He is young and promising, has no negative news, and does not cause trouble to the club... Flashing Star has really found a treasure.
"Ha, yes, a good player." Zhao Kangming agreed with a smile from the side.
From the moment he saw this player in the high school national competition, he decided that he was a good player. But despite this, Hu Lai's progress far exceeded his expectations.
He has worked in youth training for ten years, and now he is coaching the first team and no longer continues to work in youth training. He can also summarize his youth training career.
He can proudly declare that Hu Lai is the best player he has trained in the youth training in the past ten years and is his most satisfying "work".
When the training was over, Chen Mo gathered the players and did not let them go back to the locker room immediately.
Dong Wen, the general manager of the club, stood in front of them and had something to announce to them.
"I have brought you good news." Fat manager Dong Wen smiled like a Maitreya Buddha. "The club promised everyone that if the team wins the FA Cup, it will distribute 10 million to the first team. Bonus! ”
When Dong Wen waved his arms and reported the number, the players on the training ground were stunned for a moment, and then collectively burst into cheers: "Okay!!!"
Before the season, the club has promised the team that if they successfully reach the Super League, the club will reward 10 million, and the Jincheng City Government will reward another 10 million.
And now if you win the Football Association Cup, you will get a bonus worth tens of millions.
Hearing this number, many players' breathing became thicker.
There are twenty-six people in the first team. Even if the bonus of 10 million is an average score of 380,000 each, not to mention that it is impossible to get an average score, the main players and outstanding players will definitely get more.
Regardless of whether the team can win the championship, at least there are 10 million here, and many people will work harder.
For professional teams, this is the best pre-game mobilization.
Letting the players know that they have the opportunity to receive large bonuses after fighting hard will impress these professionals who rely on football to support their families more than just shouting slogans and letting them fight for honor.
Dong Wen's arrival and the news announced made the players very happy.
After they return to the locker room, they will probably continue to discuss the bonus issue of 10 million yuan.
Perhaps only after they gradually calm down will they consider whether the club is writing a bad check and whether it is a good idea to take the ten million.
The party giving the money has already been considering this issue.
After the players left, Dong Wen said to Zhao Kangming: "I will give you 10 million for winning the championship, but Zhao guides you not to put too much pressure on you. In fact, all the team's goals for this season have been achieved. This FA Cup championship is just a bonus - of course it’s good to have it, but it doesn’t matter if you don’t have it.”
Zhao Kangming nodded: "I know, Manager Dong. But I will not pour cold water on those players at this time. Before the end of the game, I will always encourage them to pursue victory."
"Of course. In short, what I want to express is that the club is very satisfied with your work this season and will not put any pressure on you. It doesn't matter how the FA Cup final goes... I think we can talk about it sometime. Renew the contract?”
When Zhao Kangming came to Flash Star, he signed a three-year contract. Now two years have passed and there is still one year left on the contract. With his performance in leading the team, Flashing Star certainly doesn't want to let him leave just like this.
Even a fool can see that Zhao Kangming has a good performance in leading the team in Flash Star and has a harmonious relationship with the players.
Especially after the FA Cup semi-final against Poseidon, everyone saw what the Flash Star players could do for their head coach - in order to avenge Director Zhao, they were able to overturn the Chinese Super League's No. 1 team in an away game. six!
How high is Zhao Kangming's prestige in this team?
Zhao Kangming smiled and nodded: "Of course I have to renew the contract. I think... let's wait until the FA Cup final is over. After the game, I will negotiate with the club to renew the contract."
"That's great!" Dong Wen rubbed his hands. The fact that he came to announce the winning prize this time was actually secondary. After all, it was hard to say whether the money could be given out. The main purpose was to explore Zhao Kangming's It depends on whether he is willing to renew his contract with the club.
Although everyone has cooperated happily in the past two seasons, they are not as inseparable as the newlyweds. There are always some minor frictions. For example, he hired Qin Lin directly without consulting Zhao Kangming. Although Qin Lin has become the core pillar of the team since he arrived, it is still a signing that will be dealt with first and later, which will make the head coach somewhat concerned.
What if Zhao Kangming performs well in leading the team and is valued by other teams and poaches him with a high salary?
Having a head coach is not the most important thing, having a few main players is the most important thing.
With Zhao Kangming's status in the minds of these players, it is not impossible for him to run away and poach those core players.
Poseidon's body is still hanging on the city gate and has not been dried, so he just forgot about it?
After Poseidon drove Zhao Kangming away, Zhao Kangming poached Hu Lai from the Poseidon Youth Team. Everyone knows what happened next.
So Zhao Kangming should be kept here no matter what. In other words, leaving Zhao Kangming's shining star will be more confident to face the poaching of Hu Lai, Zhang Qinghuan, and Wang Guangwei from other Chinese Super League teams.
Only by retaining the core lineup can the Flash Stars in the new season hope to successfully avoid relegation in the Super League.
Dong Wen's thinking is very realistic. The club's goal for the team's first season in the Chinese Super League is to avoid relegation.
As long as we can successfully stay in the Chinese Super League, it will be considered a success, no matter how this season goes.
Of course it would be better to avoid relegation in advance.
If not, it's perfectly acceptable to wait until the last round before narrowly avoiding relegation.
Take a look at Hexi Daqin and Capital Xiangyun. They managed to get promoted, but ended up playing in the Chinese Super League for one season and then fell back...
It is easy to downgrade but difficult to upgrade.
When they come back, they want to go to the Chinese Super League again, but they don’t know what year or month it will be.
Flash Star must learn from their mistakes and lay a solid foundation in the Chinese Super League. You don’t want to become the dominant player in the Chinese Super League, but you can stay in the Chinese Super League for a long time.
For this reason, Zhao Kangming and the core players around him must be retained.
Just yesterday, he had reached an agreement with Dashun Golden Arrow to continue loaning Chen Xingyi for one year.
At first, he actually wanted to buy out Chen Xingyi directly, but as a result, Golden Arrow did not listen to any offers for Chen Xingyi at all. Xue Chaoyu, general manager of Golden Arrow, said it very directly. Chen Xingyi is the core of Golden Arrow in the next ten years and it is impossible to sell him.
His preference is to retreat and seek the next best thing, seeking a lease.
This time Dashun Golden Arrow did not make things difficult for him. After asking Flash Star Club to pay a rental fee of 4 million, they agreed to rent for another year.
The contract has been signed and we are just waiting for the official announcement at the end of the season.
There is naturally no problem with Chen Xingyi, and he is happy to continue playing at Shining Star.
Think about the shining star that has four young players Hu Lai, Chen Xingyi, Zhang Qinghuan, and Wang Guangwei in the new season, and then dig some players from the transfer market who are worthy of the requirements of the Chinese Super League, and let Zhao Kangming train them well. I really don’t know where we will end up in the Chinese Super League... (End of Chapter)
