Chapter 29 Believe Him

Luo Mang stopped talking nonsense, took off his coat indifferently, gave Lu Ziqiu a cold look, and walked towards Lin Sen without looking back.

Lan Feng laughed softly: "It seems that kid is going to peel off his skin today."

Lu Ziqiu patted him on the shoulder, "I'll leave in a while, and whoever dares to be disobedient in the team will be dealt with directly to you, how about it?"

Lan Feng nodded, "Are you going to give me the captain?"

"That's right." Lu Ziqiu nodded heavily, "Are you sure?"

"Of course." A stern look flashed in his eyes, "Go back first, and leave it to me, including that clown."

It is enough to have Lan Feng's words.

Lu Ziqiu is confident that his vision is not bad, and with him around, there will be no problems.

Xia Kexin nervously caught up with Lu Ziqiu, and asked in a low voice, "What should we do?"

Lu Ziqiu smiled calmly: "Don't worry, just leave it to Thompson and the others."

"Ah?" Xia Kexin was stunned, leaving before the trouble was resolved?

When he came back to his senses, Lu Ziqiu had finished explaining to Thompson and the others, and was leading Diana out of the gate.

She turned her head to look over there, surrounded by tall and burly team members, she couldn't see anything at all, but she could always hear Lan Feng's fierce voice:

"What are you doing, haven't you eaten?"

"Clown, with your shitty skills, are you still a street player?"

"What are you looking at? If you have the ability to deal with your opponent in advance, if you are unhappy, I will wait for you."

"And you, what the hell are you doing around here? Stand far away for me."

Xia Kexin looked up to the sky and sighed, is this a professional athlete?It looks more like a hooligan.

When catching up with Lu Ziqiu and the others, Diana saw her frown and comforted her: "Don't worry, the general manager knows it well."

"It's no wonder if you don't worry, Lan Feng, Luo Mang, Lin Sen, which one is the fuel-efficient lamp? If they are not handled carefully, I am really worried that they will fight."

Diana shrugged, "Just hit it, what's the big deal?"

"How can you say that?"

Diana took her arm and said calmly: "You don't know about Lan Feng, but I know very well that he looks like a villain, but in fact he is very measured in his actions."

"You haven't been in contact with him, how can you be very clear?"

"I know Lan Feng very well. Many times when the general manager is inconvenient to come forward, I am the one who contacts him."

"Really?" Xia Kexin looked at Lu Ziqiu suspiciously.

Lu Ziqiu smiled and nodded, "Diana didn't lie to you."

Even if he said that, Xia Kexin has no reason not to believe it, "But if they fight, will nothing happen?"

Lu Ziqiu said firmly: "There must be a fight between Lan Feng and Luo Mang, which is unavoidable. As for Lin Sen, he dare not do anything to Lan Feng and Luo Mang."

"Isn't Lin Sen also a rebellious person?"

"That's right, except for Lan Feng and Luo Mang, Lin Sen is not a fool."

Xia Kexin frowned, it was really hard for her to accept such groundless remarks.

Diana smiled softly: "Don't worry, let's go, let's go back to the office and wait for the news."

Xia Kexin bit her lip, "Don't we have to do anything?"

Diana couldn't answer her at this point, so she could only look at Lu Ziqiu.

Lu Ziqiu's eyes flashed, he looked back at the eyeball hall, and continued walking forward without saying anything.

Xia Kexin was hesitant about whether to go back to the arena, and it was really uncomfortable not to go back, but if she went back, she made it clear that she didn't believe in Lu Ziqiu.

Diana saw it and said solemnly: "Trust the general manager, he will not be wrong."

Having said all this, Xia Kexin couldn't turn back no matter what, "Let's go."

Back at the office, Diana calmly went about her daily work.

Xia Kexin was fidgeting, but seeing Lu Ziqiu looking up at the sky outside, he guessed that he must be thinking about something, so he felt embarrassed to disturb him at this time.

Finally, it was four o'clock in the afternoon.

Thompson and Harris hurried to report.

Xia Kexin's hanging heart finally settled down after listening.

Lu Ziqiu nodded calmly, "Thank you for your hard work."

The two shook their heads, and Thompson asked, "What should we do next?"

Diana finally stopped what she was doing and silently looked up at Lu Ziqiu.

Xia Kexin stood up nervously, her heart tightened again after she had just calmed down.

Lu Ziqiu smiled slightly and called everyone to sit on the sofa.

Diana pushed her chair over, she knew that Lu Ziqiu must be sitting opposite them.

"Thank you." Lu Ziqiu took the chair and sat down.

"Lin Sen is definitely not happy today, but you don't need to worry about him. He is a competitor. He will naturally participate in training when his anger subsides. As for the three of James, I will find a way to trade them away as soon as possible."

Harris smiled bitterly: "But will anyone want the three of them?" Of course it would be best if they could be traded.

Lu Ziqiu turned to look at Diana.

Diana understood, "All three of them still have a year's contract."

"Are they all middle class contracts?"

"Yes."

"You immediately contact a few teams that need to free up salary space, as long as they are willing to trade, even a second-round pick."

"I have sent emails to those teams and they are discussing."

Xia Kexin looked at Diana in astonishment, no wonder she was busy all afternoon, it turned out that she had already done her work first.

Recalling the time when I was an assistant, I had to wait for Lu Ziqiu to arrange almost any job. When the two sides were compared, the gap was immediately revealed.

She finally understood why Lu Ziqiu was so anxious to ask Diana to report. Which leader would not like an assistant like this?
Lu Ziqiu praised: "Very good, remember to follow up on this matter."

Diana smiled, "I will continue to follow up."

"The free agent market should also keep an eye on it. If there are players suitable for our team, let me know immediately."

"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it."

Xia Kexin saw that Lu Ziqiu had not assigned him a task, and suddenly felt that he was useless, "General Manager, what about me?"

"Don't worry, your task is more onerous."

"Really?" Xia Kexin was overjoyed and clenched her fists excitedly. Before she knew it, she had completely regarded herself as a member of the team.

"Looking back, you memorize the information of all the players in the team, including the environment in which they grew up. You have to find out everything."

"And then?" She had already started reciting these materials after returning from the expansion draft.

"So you know it by heart?" Lu Ziqiu was a little surprised to see her eager to try.

Xia Kexin nodded heavily, "I've been looking at their files every day since I got home."

Lu Ziqiu praised with satisfaction: "Very good."

Even if it was just an understatement, it was the greatest recognition for Xia Kexin, "What's next?"

"From tomorrow onwards, you have to get in touch with the players more."

"Do you want to talk to them?" This is her strong point, and she is absolutely sure.

Lu Ziqiu nodded.

Xia Kexin's eyes flashed, "I will definitely complete the task satisfactorily."

"As the schedule progresses, the hearts of the players will change every moment. You must always grasp the scale and try to make friends with them, not just talk heart-to-heart. No?"

Xia Kexin nodded heavily, "I know."
