Chapter 139 Champion Parade

When Guangzhou Tianbao returned to Guangzhou the next day, the city was empty of thousands of people, and the road from the urban area to the airport was tightly blocked. There were countless media and fans who came to the airport to pick up the plane. To ensure safety, Guangzhou Tianbao players did not show up at the airport, but took a pre-arranged helicopter and left the airport.

It is not necessary to show up at the airport, but a grand press conference and championship parade are inevitable. The press conference is easy to talk about, but what about the championship parade?This really took the club's brains a lot.

First of all, the first plan is a double-decker bus parade like in Europe, but this plan was quickly rejected by the club chairman because it was estimated to affect traffic. It is really hard to imagine such a championship parade in Guangzhou, which is already under heavy traffic pressure.

It doesn’t work on the ground. Many people put their eyes on the sky, and some people suggested whether it is possible to hold an airship parade, let the players sit on the airship and parade across the city, so that everyone can see it, and it will not affect traffic.

But after discussing for a while, this plan was also rejected, and it felt unreliable and unsafe.

Sea, land, air, the latter two are not enough, so the only choice is water. Finally, after discussion, the club decided to hold a grand championship parade on the Pearl River. For this reason, the club owner specially transferred his yacht from Sanya overnight, and this yacht has been named "Tianbao".

*****
This may be the most special championship parade in the history of world football. For this reason, TV stations in many Asian countries have broadcast live, such as NHK in Japan, KBS in Korea, etc. Everyone wants to see what the championship parade on the yacht is like.

But there is a problem that plagues the club, that is, such a parade will look better on TV, because the aerial vehicle can present the images to the audience from all angles, but the audience at the scene will not be able to see anything because of the distance, what should I do?
In the end, the club decided to solve the problem by temporarily renting the exterior walls of skyscrapers along the Pearl River, and using a current technology, that is, 3D projection technology, to project live images in real time on the exterior walls of skyscrapers. This solved the problem that the audience could not see the stars on the yacht.

November 11 is destined to be a day worth remembering in the history of Guangzhou. On this day, Guangzhou Tianbao players took a yacht on the Pearl River, held high the AFC Champions Trophy, and celebrated this hard-won trophy with the whole city.

The yacht moved slowly on the Pearl River, and everywhere it went was warmly welcomed by the fans. In the past, we only saw one city in Europe that was crazy because of football, such as Barcelona, ​​Madrid, and Milan. Today, this kind of thing happened in Guangzhou, China. It was not because of the Spring Festival, but because of football. Everyone walked out of the house, and the whole city became a sea of ​​joy.

Guangzhou Tianbao players also have their own specific fans. For example, in some river sections, people along the coast shouted, "Sun Jihai", probably an old Chinese football fan, and in some river sections, everyone shouted, "Gudjohnsen", probably a middle-aged female fan. I heard that Gudjohnsen is a teacher killer in China.

But in more places, people still hear two names-"Stan" and "Li Qiao".

This is also normal. Stan is the head coach. He has contributed a lot to the team today. Although Li Qiao has only been here for a few months, the fans have seen his performance. From being booed by the fans in the first game to being praised in the clouds now, I can only say that football is fair. As long as you have strength, people will recognize you.

The fans are the parents of the club. Although the players are very tired, they still try their best to cooperate with the fans during the several hours of parade. For example, whoever the fans call their name will lift the trophy to the bow to make the fans happy.

The players will also respond to the fans' requests, for example, if someone shouts, "Stan stays, Stan stays...", Stan will use the tweeter to shout to the shore, "I will stay in Guangzhou forever". Although everyone knows that no head coach is forever, but at this moment you just want to make the fans happy.

When someone shouted, "The Chinese team is going to Brazil", the Chinese players in the team - Li Qiao, Qi Bing, Li Weifeng, Sun Jihai and others will come out to interact with everyone.Although the current situation of the Chinese team in the top 20 Asian World Cup qualifiers is not good, but seeing these post-90s grown-up generation, the fans are still full of hope for the future.

After Milu left, this is the first time that Chinese people are so happy because of football. Everyone hopes to have no sleep tonight, and the club is also very cooperative. The championship parade, which was originally scheduled to end at 10 o'clock, was postponed for 2 hours and ended at 12 o'clock.

Just 12 seconds before 30 o'clock, I don't know why, a shocking scene happened suddenly, and almost all Chinese fans spontaneously shouted in unison, "China World Cup, China Team World Cup".

Maybe it was because I was so happy tonight that I touched the weakest part of many people's hearts. Yes, in a blink of an eye, the Chinese team has not entered the top 10 in two consecutive World Cup qualifiers, and now the top 20 in Asia is underway. Many fans see that the Chinese club can do so well, and the national team will also have hope. Maybe this is why they couldn't restrain their inner excitement when the parade was about to end, and spontaneously shouted out their hearts.

Finally the parade is over, there is no banquet in the world, and the glory of Chinese football is not limited to tonight.

*****
The next day, the Guangzhou Tianbao team held a small celebration party. Only the team staff and family members of the players participated. Only the boss and the team manager attended the club's top management. It was a very private party.

Because there was no media present, the club owner changed his normal routine and became very talkative. He talked about his own experience of loving football. Back then, he responded to the call of the country and went south to Guangzhou to start a business.

But it doesn’t matter, it’s just a little bit of entertainment that supports his spiritual world. After he made money, he thought of investing in football. The boss talked, and many people below were very moved. Usually everyone thinks that the boss only loves money. It turns out that the boss also has a heart.

After talking about his experience, the boss started to talk about the business. He praised Stan first, and when he praised Stan highly, someone raised his hand to intervene. Normally, the boss's face would be ashen. But today, because he was happy, he stopped to allow the people below to ask questions.

"Boss, may I ask, did Lippi really come to replace Stan that time?"
As soon as this question came up, the boss himself laughed first, and the people below also laughed.

"Well, I don't think it's suitable to talk about this issue in such a joyous occasion." After saying this, the people below laughed even louder, which was the boss's default that he had thought so.

In fact, this is not surprising. Think about it. The chairman of Real Madrid, Florentino, swore to the media several times before changing coaches. He believed in the head coach [-]%, but a few days later, the head coach was driven away by him.

"Okay, let's talk about bonuses," said the boss.

As soon as the word "bonus" was heard, no one laughed immediately, and everyone pricked up their ears to hear how the bonus was paid.

The bonus promised by the club is 1 million RMB, but the problem is how to distribute it. If the score is average, it will be too unfair to the main players, but if it is not even, it will affect unity. This is also the most troublesome problem for Chinese clubs.

In the end, the boss announced a set of bonus standards, which are determined by the basic bonus + playing time + goals + the average score of the AFC after the game. The boss said that the distribution standard will be distributed to each person. You can compare it when you get the bonus. If you follow this standard, the 400 million yuan bonus that Li Qiao can get is mainly in the second half of the season. Otherwise, the bonus may exceed [-] million.

Talking about the bonus issue, the boss next is to imagine next year. He hopes that the team can win the AFC Champions League next season, and his goal for the next Club World Cup is to at least reach the semi-finals, that is, to win at least one game.

After talking about this, the boss's words were almost finished, and then it was the real party, with champagne and food, everyone chatted together, some people began to discuss where to go for Christmas, and some people discussed how to spend the bonus, whether to buy a new car or something.

*****
In the early morning, Li Qiao was awakened from his sleep by the ringing of the phone. He rubbed his sleepy eyes with one hand, and went to the bedside to touch the phone with the other. When he saw that it was an unfamiliar number, and it didn't look like a Chinese number, Li Qiao cursed in his heart, "It's probably a harassing call", Li Qiao thought.

"Hello," Li Qiao said loudly.

When the person on the other end of the phone explained the situation clearly, Li Qiao woke up completely.

It was Madrid, Spain, and the caller was Camacho's Chinese assistant. He said on the phone: "Congratulations, Li Qiao, you have been selected for the new national team's 23-man roster, and you will report to the Xianghe base in two days."
After listening to the call, Li Qiao didn't know if he was dreaming. He pinched himself to make sure that he was not dreaming, and he replied blankly, "Oh".
