Chapter 52 Napoli’s Dream (First Guarantee)

After the match against Palermo, the media were reporting on Arshavin's goal. Chen Yingxiong's direct lob shot from the center circle was the highlight of the goal. Of course, Arshavin's resolute advance is also the key.

As for the grievances between Chen Yingxiong and the fans, the media did not mention it.

First of all, Chen Yingxiong did not make a slapped celebration in this game, although the boos were still there.

Secondly, Lavezzi sat on the bench for a full ninety minutes, and this news became the target of the media's attention.

Nowadays, the conflict between Lavezi and coach Mazzari is known to the whole city, and it is not a secret. All this is like the difference between Chen Yingxiong and Leia at the beginning.

Ravizi has not expressed his dissatisfaction with Mazzari in public. He is still in the public with an image of being silent and working hard, and then being treated unfairly by the head coach.

But anyone with normal IQ knows that he and Mazari are in conflict.

There are always well-informed reporters in the media circle who can know the inside story that others don't know. These people either have a good relationship with the club's officials, or they have a better relationship with the player's agent.

This time it was Lavezzi’s agent Mazzoni who wanted to put pressure on the club, so he revealed the contradiction between Lavezzi and Mazzari through the mouth of a reporter who was close to him.

"...It is said that when the team is training now, Lavezzi and Mazzari ignore each other, and the two have not communicated a word!"

This is of course a very serious contradiction, but when the players in Naples see this sentence, they will think it is too exaggerated. How could there be no word? It's just a little bit missing...

But they can also see the contradiction between the two people.

Mazzari didn't like the way that Ravizie was going his own way, and Ravizi also believed that Mazzari was on Chen Yingxiong's side at all, and he had nothing to talk about with such a person.

He is determined to leave the club, so there is nothing to worry about.

Ravizi has no scruples, and Mazzari has no scruples-against Palermo and Fiorentina, Ravizi did not play, but the team won a victory. In the game against Roma, Lavezzi was on the court and Naples fell behind 2:3. After him, the team was 4:3. He couldn't win any game where he was on the court. Instead of him, the team was running smoothly.

This shows what?

It shows that in this set of tactics, Lavezzi is no longer an indispensable figure. The team left him as usual!

In that case, what am I afraid of you doing?

This is Mazzari's idea.

Ravizi can leave with determination, and Mazzari can also be determined to drive Ravizi into the cold palace. Marino's life in the middle was uncomfortable.

He is always asked by reporters: "Is it true that Mazari and Lavezzi have a conflict?" "Is it true that Lavezzi is going to transfer and leave?"

He always said: "They have no contradiction...We will not sell the team's star..."

It doesn't work to always use this excuse.

So now the reporter asks him directly: "What do you think of the contradiction between Lavezzi and Mazzari?" "Will you sell Lavezzi to Inter Milan?"

His answer was: "We have no conflicts... We will never sell the team's head stars..."

The reporters also felt that Marino’s answer was too perfunctory. They simply ran to the team’s owner Aurelio de Laurentiis. Everyone knows that this club chairman is famous for his big mouth, maybe from him. What interesting news can you get?

I don't think De Laurentiis' reaction this time makes everyone depressed.

"My team will never sell players for money!"

This kind of answer makes a lot of stories-unethical. Laurentis doesn't want Lavezie to leave? But didn't he have a close personal relationship with Chen Yingxiong? In this way, could it be that he and Chen Yingxiong had conflicts again?

That's really big news!

※※※

Chen Yingxiong, who was lying and shot, was accepting a banquet from the boss in the luxurious manor of de Laurentiis.

This is his first time as a guest club owner in Naples.

Compared with the 50-acre luxury manor of the movie tycoon, the 210-square-meter "villa" rented by Chen Yingxiong is simply an ugly duckling-even though Chen Yingxiong had found a good one for himself before. The house is complacent.

Chen Yingxiong and De Laurentiis have already had lunch and are strolling in the sunny garden.

The warm sunshine on the body makes people almost forget that this is actually winter.

"I have been in Naples for more than half a year. How do you feel about this city?" De Laurentiis asked.

"To be honest, I haven't even seen what this city looks like!" Chen Yingxiong complained.

He was telling the truth. Apart from training every day, he returns home to continue training. For him, training is nothing but competition, and there is no rest time. Fortunately, the person next to him is the bodyguard Christine Cabrera. This woman would not ask him to go shopping with her, chat with her, and do many romantic things with her. She just stayed quietly beside him at night. At home, Chen Yingxiong closed the bedroom door and went to clean the instance by himself, and Cabrera had no complaints.

Coupled with the tense relationship with the fans, Cabrera will not let Chen Yingxiong run around at all, unless necessary, it is best to stay at home. Even if she came to the banquet today, Cabrera followed every step of the way, but instead of enjoying a delicious lunch with Chen Yingxiong and others, she drove away again.

De Laurentiis laughed.

"You..." He shook his head. "Do you know what my favorite was yesterday? I saw you throwing your clothes at the fans after the game."

Chen Yingxiong shrugged: "I know what you mean, but it is impossible for me and those extreme fans to reconcile."

De Laurentiis nodded: "I know I know. You are such a person, but I just hope you will have the opportunity to appreciate the beauty of Naples in the future. Have you heard of a word?"

"what?"

"Look at Napoli and die. Don't live too tired, kid."

"There are too many enemies."

"There are many enemies you made yourself."

Chen Yingxiong deliberately refuted, and thought that this was his own boss, so let's converge...

De Laurentiis certainly knew that with the young and energetic state of Chen Yingxiong, he couldn't listen to these words. But he didn't ask Chen Yingxiong to listen, he just said casually.

"Let’s talk about the team, hero. How do you feel playing in Naples?"

"It was bad at first, but it's getting better now."

"I think so. Mazzari told me that he wants the team to qualify for the UEFA Cup next season..."

"Union Cup?" Chen Yingxiong frowned upon hearing this.

"What?" De Laurentiis saw the change in Chen Yingxiong's expression. He was making the movie, so naturally he knew exactly what the expression change meant. "You don't want to be able to participate in the European war next season?"

"Of course I do, but I thought it was the Champions League." Chen Yingxiong said.

De Laurentis was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled: "I should have guessed it a long time ago. Ha, that's what you can say. Why, are you still not satisfied with the UEFA Cup?"

"I have played the UEFA Cup for two consecutive seasons, boss..." Chen Yingxiong looked miserable. "Playing the UEFA Cup again, I really have to vomit."

"Hey, let's be honest. When the kid Mazzari told me that he wanted to lead the team to the UEFA Cup, I still felt there was some hope-we are now eighth. But you have to say the Champions League... …"

Chen Yingxiong curled his lips: "Whether it is one thing, whether or not it is another thing, boss. If you don't dare to think, even if you can or can't, if you dare to think, you can even if you can't." He It's like talking about tongue twisters.

De Laurentiis humbly accepted Chen Yingxiong's "critical education": "Ha, you are right, you are right!"

If this scene is seen by the club manager Marino, he will definitely scare his jaw off-in his impression, no one has been able to be reprimanded after speaking to Aurelio de Laurentis in this way. of. "Who do you think your kid is? Dare to talk to me like this?!"

"Then I will also slightly adjust my expectations. If we can really score in the Champions League next season, I will definitely increase investment!"

Two people-mainly the elderly De Laurentiis-got tired of shopping and sat down on a bench by the garden path.

De Laurentiis leaned back in the chair and looked up at the blue sky. Naples is humid and excessive in winter, and there is rarely such a good weather. The fine beads of sweat on his forehead reflected the sunlight, as if there were countless little suns. He slowly exhaled a suffocating breath in his chest, and he immediately felt much better.

"Hero, do you know?" De Laurentiis said suddenly, narrowing his eyes.

"Huh?" Chen Yingxiong who was sitting next to him replied.

"The Champions League is an honor that Diego Maradona has never won."

"Isn't that just right? Win the Champions League and create a new era!" Chen Yingxiong said vigorously with his fists clenched.

De Laurentiis grinned and said: "If your words are heard by the media, I'm afraid there will be another storm in Naples."

Chen Yingxiong looked at the Bay of Naples and said to De Laurentiis: "Boss, I may not speak well, because I haven't studied much, and I can't say good things. But I understand the truth. I always I think Naples is still alive in the Maradona era of the last century. In my home country, China, there are many fans who like Naples because of what? It’s because of Maradona, not because of Naples. I think you really want to. When the team becomes a giant, it has to get rid of the influence of Maradona. When will everyone like this team because of Naples' current results, and then they know that there is Maradona. Thought."

The old man beside him didn't say a word, just staring at the Gulf of Naples in front of him, and no one knew what he was thinking.

This manor of de Laurentiis is right on the mountainside of Mount Vesuvius, where you can have a panoramic view of the beautiful Gulf of Naples. Although the layout is messy, it is colorful and full of vitality, and it also shines in the sun. The sparkling Mediterranean Sea.

This place was the capital of the two kingdoms of Sicily more than a hundred years ago, and people here are still immersed in the glory of the former capitals of the two kingdoms of Sicily. The capital is always the center of all desires intertwined in a region. The inevitable problem is that people living in common people's houses will think that they live in the heart of the world and hold the lifeline and axioms of the whole world.

The same goes for the fans in Naples. They are still alive in the dream of the Maradona era and do not want to wake up. Whenever I was unhappy, I would hide in the tavern, while drinking wine, thinking about the past year—when Diego was in Naples...

This fascination with the past led to Diego's departure, Naples also quickly sank, and even fell into the abyss of bankruptcy and the dissolution of the team.

The people of Naples are full of passion and are open throughout the year, making it the best living environment for football. But the people here are too passionate, especially in their attitude towards Maradona. Maradona once hoped to leave Naples and go to Marseille in France, because the obsessive enthusiasm of the Naples has created too much anxiety in his life. But how could this city easily let Diego go? He has accumulated an obsession with a city.

In the end, Diego reached the pinnacle of his career in the city of Naples. He also accelerated his decline in the never-ending enthusiasm of the Naples, and gradually became unable to extricate himself from the women and drugs offered by the mafia leaders.

Diego Maradona is the **** of Naples, and until now he has entrusted all the enthusiasm and hope of all the people of Naples.

From this point of view, Aurelio de Laurentiis suddenly felt that when Chen Yingxiong first came to the team, it was actually a good thing that the fans of Naples turned against Maradona because of Maradona. At the very least, he doesn't need to inherit Maradona's mantle to take over all the hopes of the entire Neapolitan people who are obsessed with the past, dissatisfied with the present, and fantasized about the future.

He is him, the hero Chen who made Naples fans boo him crazy. He will never become the **** of this city, he will never become the second Maradona.

Diego Maradona is unique, and Chen Yingxiong is also unique.

After a long time, the old man suddenly spoke. "You are right, hero. We are still living in the glory of the past. Good memories are like drugs. Everyone knows that it is not a good thing, but you can't give it up. After so many years, no one can let it go. Napoli has awakened from the dreams of the past."

He looked at Chen Yingxiong.

The young man in front of him had black eyes reflecting the light of the sun.

"Such a challenging thing, I want to try it."

He said.
