World's No.1 Football Manager

Chapter 257 Difficulties
"Brazilians are passionate and romantic at heart. The reason why the outside world thinks they are arrogant is mainly due to their reaction speed and efficiency. In the final analysis, it is still due to their loose personality. But in football, it is a completely different matter. It is the arrogance that is really imprinted in the bones!" Yan Ruyu explained.

"how to say?"

"In the eyes of Brazilians, their football is the best in the world, and other world football powers are one or several grades lower than them, and China is even less popular.

The arrogance and prejudice against Chinese football are deeply rooted. In the transfer market, it is often seen that Brazilian clubs are unable to provide transfer fees or annual salaries to forcefully poach foreign aid from the Chinese Super League.I didn’t understand what they thought before, but through contact with the Brazilians, I finally understood their logic. China is a football desert, and those high-level foreign players are just looking for gold. Apart from money, they don’t have a good life there, and they don’t play football happily.Under the pressure of the players, the Chinese Super League clubs also had to let go. "

Han Peng scolded: "These brainless Brazilians are delusional."

Gao Yuan thought of Jill's transfer. When Jill left, he still had a half-year contract, and the Taishan team had not received a penny from Corinthians.

However, if you think about it in another way, Gao Yuan also understands the mentality of the Brazilians.Just like Chinese table tennis clubs and fans, will they look down on the Mauritius Table Tennis Super League?It is estimated that in everyone's perception, sending out a random champion of the community can overthrow their national champion!
Gao Yuan said confidently: "It's okay to be arrogant now, and soon I will let them know that barren soil can still bear fruitful fruits, and Chinese football also has great people!"

Yan Ruyu, Han Peng, and Liu Jindong all looked at Gao Yuan in astonishment, wondering where his confidence came from?You know, this is Brazil, the kingdom of football!

Yan Ruyu reminded: "I have a hunch that your team formation may not be smooth sailing. You have seen the attitude of those Brazilian children before. They don't trust you too much."

Yan Ruyu hesitated for a while on the final wording, and chose a word that was relatively easy to accept.

"We have no grudges with them in the past, and we have no grudges these days. Why is our attitude so unfriendly?" Han Peng asked puzzled.

"This involves many issues such as cultural background, politics, and economy. Simply put, there are a large number of Asian immigrants in the Americas. Through their own efforts, they live a very good life. But the locals think that the influx of Asian immigrants has crowded out their employment opportunities and plundered their resources and wealth. Driven by narrow nationalism and self-interest, it is inevitable that there will be some unfriendly and radical actions. Such xenophobic thinking exists in any country in the world."

"But there shouldn't be such an attitude in this base! We injected so much money into their club and provided their players with the best training facilities. Shouldn't they be grateful?" Han Peng continued to ask.

"Narrow nationalism is a minority after all. It is not serious in most places and industries, but it is very obvious in the field of football that Brazilians are most proud of. The gap between rich and poor here is too great. Most of the children who play football come from slums. They are talented and love football. Only through football can they change their lives. In their eyes, the Chinese players trained here generally lack talent and are far inferior to them in terms of football skills. It is a waste of a lot of training and game resources! What is wasted is their chance to change their lives!"

Liu Jindong said suddenly: "In the past, I brought the echelons here several times, but everyone basically lived in peace. You practice yours and I practice mine, but this time I feel that the atmosphere is obviously much more tense than before. What's going on?"

Yan Ruyu glanced at Gao Yuan before slowly answering:
"Because the team formation mode this time is different from before!

In the past, our echelon came from a reorganization system and practiced on our own. We just invited Brazilian coaches to guide us and played against local Brazilian teams.Even if there are a few outstanding players who train with Brazilian children, they will not take up much resources, and even have little chance to play because of their insufficient level.

But this time it was different. We had 13 children here at once, and we had to form a team with them to compete in the Sao Paulo State A1 League.This means that 13 DB players will be eliminated from the team.And this year's qualification for the Sao Paulo State A1 League was achieved by these players through hard work last season. How could their psychology be balanced!
Pointing at the bus today, those Brazilian kids who were eccentric were all eliminated DB players. They had resentment in their hearts, so I didn’t come forward to stop them. "

Han Peng and Liu Jindong unconsciously set their sights on Gao Yuan. Both of them were professional players. They knew what it meant for a player to be eliminated. Not only was a season of hard work in vain, but it was likely to have a devastating impact on their future career and life.

Gao Yuan's expression didn't change in any way. He had thought of all the impact and consequences before he put forward the plan of integrating into the team.He was a little sorry for the Brazilian kids who were eliminated, but that was all.

Football is like life. We live in a world of the jungle, where limited resources face unlimited competition.In the face of the law of the jungle, any pity and sympathy are ridiculous and pedantic.This world has never been fair. Some people are born with more resources, and some people are born with talents far beyond ordinary people. Instead of complaining about the injustice in the world, it is better to redouble our efforts to win a precious place for ourselves to stay in the team.

The Taishan Club invested heavily, not for training Brazilians, but for their own youth training.The competition of these Brazilian children has never been the Chinese teenagers, but the compatriots around them.

Seeing Gao Yuan's indifferent appearance, Yan Ruyu couldn't help sighing in her heart, "Is this still the man who fed stray cats in the Taishan team? This man is getting more and more incomprehensible!"

When he was about to walk to the office building in the administrative area, Yan Ruyu suddenly said: "Those eliminated players may not be the biggest problem, but the remaining DB players and coaches may be more troublesome."

Han Peng and Liu Jindong looked at each other, not understanding the meaning of these words, but Gao Yuan remained calm, as if he had thought about this problem a long time ago, and was prepared to deal with it and solve it in his heart.
