Many friends who fought side by side in Germany a year ago were reunited, especially Wang Ai only participated in the Olympic training camp during this period and did not come to the national team. The news of his high-stakes transfer happened again. For a while, I was envious. Envy and hatred linger over the Xianghe base.

The members of the coaching staff just laughed and watched these guys playing with their hands behind their backs. To be honest, they would be under a lot of pressure to have Wang Ai under his command. It has always been difficult for big-name players to discipline. In the past, the Chinese team had at most domestic big names, but now there is a real international big name.

I haven't seen him for half a year. Wang Ai has stood on the podium of the highest football award, and then won the Asian Footballer for three consecutive times. Recently, he has the highest net worth in the world... The coaches looked at Wang Ai and felt guilty.

After all, if you change another person, you may have been flying early. But slowly watching and holding Qu Bo's shoulders for a while, and wrestling with Luo Tongliang for a while, should it be okay?

Sure enough, as soon as Ali blew the whistle, everyone was silent, including Wang Ai, standing in the queue properly. It was not until this scene was seen that people's hearts were let go, including Zhu Heyuan and Nan Yong who were probing outside the training ground.

For the leaders, the news of Wang Ai's transfer is certainly good news. Chinese players can become the world's most valuable players, even if they can't be included in their resumes, it can be regarded as meritorious leadership. After all, the national team and the Football Association have strongly supported Wang Ai in the past. But at the same time, Wang Ai's return with such a high net worth is also a hidden danger to the team's unity and the relationship between the generals, so Nan Yong was not at ease and came to Xianghe to take a look today.

Take a look, it's okay! Nan Yong also decided not to make an appearance in public, staying outside the training ground while watching the national team training, while explaining work to Zhu Heyuan.

The goal set by the Football Association for this Asian Cup is the "Final Four", and of course it is the "Final" to the outside world. We didn't have much World Cup experience in the past, so we basically didn't notice the phenomenon that the Asian Cup and the World Cup were out of sync. In the past two years, we finally noticed, so we didn't dare to make a big deal. Among them, Wang Ai and his friends continue to "spread" the "failure theory" to fans through different channels, such as television, newspapers, blogs, etc., as well as the reality that the Chinese football team participated in the World Cup twice, both to a certain extent. Reduce the fan's thirst for honor. The whole society has lower expectations of the national football team and has a clearer understanding of the rules of the national football team.

For example, Wang Ai's "the main energy of our country and people is not in football now", "the level of modern professional football is directly related to the level of national development" and so on, have achieved broad consensus from all walks of life. In other words, Wang Ai's thought has become the mainstream thought in various sports, especially in the process of professional reform of football.

As a result, when going to the Football Association and going to the national team, the current public opinion environment is much more relaxed than before. It can even be said that the national football has never had such a relaxed environment and such a friendly space. This also ensures that the energy of the Football Association is not always disturbed by some temporary events to fight fires everywhere, but can carry out some long-term planning and layout.

Before coming to Xianghe this time, Yan Shiduo's secretary called Wang Ai, hoping that Wang Ai could give some opinions on the Chinese Super League. The Football Association intends to further activate the Chinese Super League. Wang Ai agreed verbally, ready to think about it during the Asian Cup, and then return to report to the leadership.

Xianghe's life is very happy, the teammates have regained the rhythm of getting along with each other, and several new players have been integrated smoothly. After all, the football circle is not big. As long as people are mentioned, they have a relationship with each other. There is either a common teammate, a common coach, or even the same experience of having played in the same club. Moreover, the structure of the national team dominated by the Tubingen system has been stabilized. The Tubingen system, which comes from all over the world, has no tradition of repelling people.

Ten days later, the Xianghe training camp officially ended. The 23 national team went south to Hong Kong and had a warm-up match with the Australian national team. It was also the last actual training before the start of the race. The two sides agreed on six substitutions. Ali Hahn sent a combination of Bai Guanghai + Mao Jianqing in the first half, and a combination of Dong Fangzhuo + Gao Lin in the second half. The midfielder Zheng Zhi + Zhao Xuri did not move, and Wang Ai was sent in the first half. + Shao Jiayi, replaced by Chen Tao + Hao Junmin in the second half, Luo Tongliang and Li Weifeng in the backcourt did not move, Sun Jihai + Zhang Yonghai in the first half, Zhang Yaokun + Zhou Haibin in the second half. Both sides did not work hard, the final score was 2:0, Dong Fangzhuo and Zhou Haibin scored a goal each. Originally, Wang Ai had a chance to score a goal, but found that the opponent was defending quite fiercely, so he gave up. Anyway, it is not a formal game, and there is no live broadcast.

After a rest in Hong Kong, the national team continued southward the next day and landed directly in the Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur. The first two group matches of this year's Asian Cup were held in Kuala Lumpur. The advantage of the hot summer is that where the Chinese team warms up, the climate is similar. In terms of body feel, Kuala Lumpur is cooler than Xianghe.

It’s just surprising that when the Chinese national team got off the charter plane, they encountered a large number of pick-up teams. Of course many of them are Chinese, but most of them are local Malays, which is relatively new!

Wang Ai was dragging his suitcase to follow Li Weifeng, and he was talking to Zhang Yonghai as he walked. Erbao was rather unlucky. Wang Ai was finally going to Italy, and his Ascoli team was demoted! However, he is one of the first movers to go to Serie A, so he has a lot of experience to explain to Wang Ai.

While chatting, I heard a loud noise outside, only to find a large group of people crowded outside, shocking Wang Ai. When I got closer, I discovered that people were holding large posters of him and Lao Bai. Lao Bai's accounted for one-tenth, and the rest belonged to him.

The teammates were blocked and couldn't get out. The leader Zhu Heyuan ran back and forth urgently. When everyone saw the poster clearly, they turned their heads to look at Wang Ai: You got it! Hurry up!

Wang Ai didn't recruit either. He has nothing to do with the Malaysian fan organization. He didn't even organize this pick-up. He didn't even know about it. What can you tell him to do? Later, Zhu Heyuan discussed briefly with officials of the Malaysian Football Association and AFC, the official organization that picked up the plane, and decided to ask Wang Ai to issue a thank-you statement afterwards. It is better to slip away quietly.

When they arrived at the hotel, the teammates were relieved from their shock. Zhao Xuri jumped onto Wang Ai's back: "Fuck, it's up to you, and we are all gone!"
