"Hi, Mr. Chairman."

"Huh?" Levi turned his head and looked over, it was Pioli.

He was standing in the shadow of the training ground gate, and it seemed that he had been standing there for a while.Obviously he was here specially waiting for Li Wei's arrival.

"Hi, Pioli." Li Wei smiled triumphantly at Pioli. "The bet..."

Hesitation flashed across Pioli's face, but he still gritted his teeth and said: "Mr. Chairman, I don't think it's appropriate to regard a game as a bet. Because luck plays a big role in it, who can guarantee that he is not What about a shooting star? Just like Zaccheroni, the former coach of a wealthy family, has now been reduced to the firefighting coach of a newly promoted horse."

Li Wei looked at Pioli with great interest, and said, "Then what do you mean, our previous bet doesn't count?"

Pioli blushed. Although his age is not considered old in the coaching world, he is almost twice as old as Levi. "No, it's just... I hope to make some changes. For example, even if you lose, Mr. Chairman, you can still stay in the first team as an 'assistant coach'."

Pioli has a particularly strong accent on the word assistant coach.

Assistant coaches and assistant coaches look the same, they are both second-in-command to the head coach, but the power is very different.

Compared with Pioli's harvest, his contribution is a bit insignificant.After all, Li Wei has won the bet. Standing on the commanding heights of the winner, any request made by Pioli will appear insufficient.

So after listening to Pioli's words, Li Wei just looked at him with a half-smile and didn't speak.

If Pioli knew the Chinese idiom that riding a tiger is hard to get off, he must have a confidant for the inventor of this idiom.

About 30 seconds have passed, but in Pioli's heart, about 30 years have passed.

Li Wei suddenly said, "Yes!"

"what?"

Pioli didn't react at this time, he stared at Li Wei with wide eyes. "You... what did you just say?"

Li Wei shrugged helplessly, and said, "Is my Italian that bad? I agreed to your conditions, but I also have mine."

Pioli said numbly: "Okay...Okay!"

Pioli felt that his brain was not enough at this time, but he still knew that no matter what conditions Li Wei proposed, he would agree.Because in the previous bet, he had already lost a lot, and no matter how great it was, he resigned unconditionally, and Parma didn't have to pay him a penny of liquidated damages or compensation.

Li Wei raised his right hand, and then put up two fingers: "First, the new bet is about ten rounds to prove whether I am qualified to prove that I have the qualifications of the head coach. These ten rounds include the first round of the league that has already ended. In other words , I still have nine league rounds."

Pioli interjected: "The next nine rounds, including the Europa League and Coppa Italia?"

Although Parma ranked tenth last season, he was still qualified to participate in the Europa League because of Calciopoli. Therefore, Parma needs to fight on the third line in the new season, so there are quite a lot of games that need to be played.

Li Wei thought for a while and said to Pioli: "If you are simply asked to serve as an assistant coach, you are definitely not willing. You are in charge of the Coppa Italia, mainly played by the reserve team and youth team players, and the rest I will be in charge of commanding the nine rounds of matches including the league and the Europa League, is there no problem?"

Although he only got the power to direct the Coppa Italia, Pioli is already very satisfied.If he does not do anything for a long time, he will become rusty. It happens that he can use the Coppa Italia to test his new tactics and at the same time maintain his state. Is there anything better than this?
Pioli looked at Li Wei with some regrets. If he didn't want to become the head coach, he would probably get along well with this empathetic chairman. In addition to the relationship between superiors and subordinates, he would also become friends off the court.

Li Wei thought about it, and decided to throw this problem to Pioli to solve. "How many wins in ten games will I win? What about a draw?"

Pioli naturally wants to increase the difficulty, but he still needs to be disciplined. He finally proposed: "Each game is calculated according to the league points. A victory gets three points, a draw gets one point, and a loss naturally gets zero points. Mr. Chairman, you can get Twenty points, I will do my best to assist you this season."

In ten games, a complete victory is 60.00 points.Eighteen points for six victories. In the next two games, only one victory or two draws is required to win the bet.Objectively speaking, although Pioli's condition is a bit high, it is not particularly excessive.A head coach who aspires to become a strong Serie A team cannot even guarantee a winning rate of more than [-]%, which is a bit of a failure.

"Yes!" Li Wei answered very readily.

"Ah!?" Pioli didn't expect that Li Wei would agree so easily. He was still thinking about how to negotiate with Li Wei so that the "points" for judging victory would not become too low.

Li Wei looked at Pioli with a half-smile and said, "What's wrong? Is there a problem?"

Pioli quickly waved his hand and said, "No problem, no problem."

Pioli, who came back to his senses, is already laughing in his heart, how could there be a problem?

Pioli is not too stupid, he knows how to change the topic. "Mr. Chairman, you mentioned two conditions just now, but now you only mentioned one. What is the other condition?"

Li Wei naturally knows Pioli's careful thinking, but he doesn't care: "Cooperate well with me during the bet. I mean all aspects, including the media, and the coaching staff you brought to cooperate with me. Understand?"

Pioli replied very readily: "No problem, Mr. Chairman, if you need it, I can stay in Parma for the match against Rubin Kazan two days later, and I will not disturb you, Mr. Chairman."

Li Wei shook his head and refused: "No, your staying in Parma will only make the media have more words to say, you and I will go to Russia to participate in the competition. I believe you will not leave any tongues for me, right?"

Pioli suddenly discovered that the "twenty points" that Li Wei readily agreed to himself before was not as simple as he imagined.

Because Li Wei agreed to such a difficult victory condition, if he is still playing tricks behind his back, after being caught by Li Wei, be careful that Li Wei will turn his face.Don't forget who the Parma club really is.

It doesn't matter what Pioli thinks at the moment, the important thing is that he finally stated: "Of course, sir, you can rest assured about this. I will cooperate with you well and won't give you any trouble!"

Li Wei stretched out his right hand to Pioli and said with a smile, "Happy cooperation!"
