Vol 8 Chapter 73: The real captain (3)

Florentino crossed his fingers and subconsciously nodded with two thumbs. He half looked up at the dining room furnishings with a hint of memory: "Yes..."
Then he quickly came back to his senses, looked at Wang Ai and shook his head with a smile on his face: "I have never fallen in love with someone so quickly, I regret why I didn't invite you to dinner earlier."
Wang Ai chuckled: "If it wasn't for the big victory just now, I might not have played so well."
"Hahahaha." Florentino finally stopped pretending, laughed loudly, and stretched out his hand to invite the two to have dinner.
Full of humor, you come and go, accompanied by exquisite food, the dinner soon came to an end, and Florentino talked about the business again: "Wang, you scored 19 goals for Real Madrid, right? Compared with last season and the previous seasons, your number of goals is obviously less, and your assists have increased significantly, can you tell me the reason? You can say it with confidence."
Wang Ai pondered for a while: "My integration needs a process."
Florentino didn't expect Wang Ai's answer to be so short. After analyzing it in his mind, he couldn't help but said: "Actually, as a super giant, you can claim your rights, even in Real Madrid."
Wang Ai smiled brightly and said: "Yes, I know I can, but unless the team urgently needs me to save, otherwise I am more used to strengthening the collective and realizing myself with a smooth curve."
"But in this case, your interests will be eroded."
"Just be patient for a while."
Florentino looked straight at the calm Wang Ai behind the glasses, and nodded after a while: "Many sponsors blamed us for the decline in your performance after you came to Real Madrid. I have already conveyed the request to the coaching staff. Your request to play more games, I hope you can adapt as soon as possible, as you said, strengthen the collective and realize yourself."
Wang Ai nodded: "I assure you, they were not instigated by me, in fact they were looking for me first."
"So you only had three goals and two assists today?" Florentino asked immediately.
"Yes." Wang Ai nodded and smiled.
"Have you worked with Raphael at Inter Milan?"
"Yes." Wang Ai answered very briefly, with a trace of curiosity in his eyes.
After Florentino couldn't help but say "What do you think of him", the smile in Wang Ai's eyes was revealed, but he just shook his head: "It's your job to evaluate the coach, not mine. "
"But if you don't express your opinion, maybe the club will ignore his position as a substitute for you, and even let you stay on the bench for a long time."
Wang Ai said seriously: "I believe that my ability and performance are better than what I said. If the coach still cannot fully use me, then I can only be sure that it is based on prejudice, not the interests of the team. If such behavior cannot be obtained If the club corrects me, then I will be convinced that the club is also based on prejudice or some factors other than football. I will not miss such a club."
"Then let me put it another way, what kind of coach do you think is suitable for Real Madrid?"
Wang Ai looked at Florentino and couldn't help laughing: "Real Madrid's staffing is too powerful and luxurious. As long as the coach fully stimulates everyone's abilities, it is enough to solve 99% of the opponents on this planet."
Florentino squinted his eyes and thought for a while: "This is why you lack personal contact with all your teammates, but you cooperate closely on the field?"
Wang Ai also thought about it for a while: "I've heard some rumors in the dressing room of Real Madrid... Not everyone needs me to be a friend, but everyone needs me to be a strong teammate."
Florentino pondered for a while before smiling: "Personally, I don't really care whether you are a starter or a substitute. Your greatest value is the 'coach saver'. It seems that you have a very keen game reading analysis Ability, together with your attack versatility and explosive power, you will have a few games with special contributions in each club every season. For example, the sixth round, the seventh round, the eleventh round, and the tenth round of this season In the second round, if it wasn't for you, the game was either tied or lost, and you scored points beyond the team's limit. This is a very special, very important, surprising and unforgettable performance."
Wang Ai spread his hands: "Just do my best."
Florentino shook his head, patiently said again and again: "This is very fascinating. I have discussed it with... some people, including some people who fought for you this past summer. We all value this. Oh, of course yours Commercial value is also very important, but stars have more and less, not as special as this kind of rescue. You are both an integral part of the team's tactics and provide additional tactical compensation. This may be you The reason for more than 50 career top titles."
Without waiting for Wang Ai to say anything, Florentino sighed: "More than 50, no one has done it before. You came to Real Madrid and turned Real Madrid into Real Madrid +1."
Wang Ai shook his head again after hearing the sound: "Just do my best."
This time, Florentino looked at Wang Ai for a while before nodding slightly, and began to gossip.
Before going out, Florentino patted Wang Ai's arm: "I can't express my satisfaction with you any more. If possible, I really want to give you a raise."
Wang Ailang laughed and said: "As long as there is no consensus that salary equals status, it's almost fine. Of course, I will fight for what I deserve, which is in line with my performance on the court."
Florentino suddenly instructed the secretary waiting outside: "Come, take a photo with Wang, I want to take it back as a souvenir."
The two parties went out to the parking lot, but before Florentino got into the car, he suddenly stopped and turned around, approached Wang Ai and held out his hand: "Real Madrid will definitely be worthy."
"Thank you, Mr. Chairman." Wang Ai lowered his head slightly while holding Florentino's hand, smiling brightly.
After boarding his own Iveco, Wang Ai first asked the guards how their dinner was, but they answered what time is it? After eating it a long time ago, Wang Ai just laughed and thought about today's "interview" carefully. Although he is not sure what Florentino intends to do to him, he must be excluding something.
"Exclude what?" After listening to Wang Ai's words at home, Xiaomei was a little confused. She stumbled in Spanish and guessed half of what she heard.
"It's not that my performance has been getting better and better in recent games, so he is worried."
"Worry?"
"I'm worried that I will become a problem child." Wang Ai said with a smile: "This phenomenon is not uncommon among players, not to mention my status. He wants to see for himself whether I am as worry-free as the rumors say. After all, I am really a problem. Children, whether they publicly judge coaches, teammates or clubs, or form cliques, or think they are underpaid, or arrogant, let alone encourage sponsors, any one of them is enough for him to have a headache."
"Problem children?" Xiaomei murmured.
