Chapter 101 Forgive
Gao Xiaodong had just arrived home and his cell phone rang. He saw that it was Yang Fan who called. Gao Xiaodong answered and heard Yang Fan shout again: "Fatty, where is your home? Tell me the specific address, let's take a taxi."
"Ah!" Gao Xiaodong was surprised when he heard that Yang Fan was coming, "Where are you? I'll pick you up."
"No, please tell me the address."
Gao Xiaodong told him an address, then went to fry four dishes, bought a box of beer, and when he got home, Yang Fan arrived, and Yu Debao was also with him.
After entering the house, Yu Debao was more reserved, while Yang Fan looked around like a thief, "Damn! Fatty, he lives in such a luxurious place, with a full set of fitness equipment inside, and a stadium swimming pool outside. How much does it cost?"
“800 euros.”
"Hold the grass, where can I find such a sucker? Find me one too." Yang Fan opened his mouth wide in surprise.
Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "I am a die-hard fan of our team, but I can't take advantage of it. The rent is for Porto."
"Your contract is really a great deal." Yang Fan sighed.
Gao Xiaodong asked: "Why are you here?"
Yang Fan said: "This is the order of Mr. Chen and Coach Zhang, otherwise I will be stupid and run towards you coldly during the New Year."
Yu Debao said: "Mr. Chen and Coach Zhang also have to accompany our teammates to celebrate the New Year. They can't come here. They are afraid that you will be alone, so they let us two fellow villagers come to accompany you."
Gao Xiaodong felt a little excited. Chen Qiang and Zhang Mingsheng were really good people. At this time, he was still thinking about himself. He smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chen and Coach Zhang, and I have to thank you too. I will call them first and wish you New Year's greetings."
Gao Xiaodong called Zhang Mingsheng and Chen Qiang to express his gratitude, and greeted New Year's greetings, and then watched the Chinese Spring Festival Gala with Yang Fan and Yu Debao.
Yan Shun's "Love True Love" made three young people living overseas cry, and Zhao Jiashan and Song Shuangshuang's sketch "Planning" made them laugh.
When he was drunk, Yu Debao suddenly said, "Xiao Dong, there is something I want to apologize to you."
Gao Xiaodong stopped chopsticks and said, "We are fellow villagers, why should we apologize?"
Yu Debao said: "That's right. When you were fired by the Star of Hope, my cousin chatted with me. I accidentally said it out loud. Then he talked nonsense to the outside world, not knowing what impact it had on you."
Gao Xiaodong smiled faintly and said, "This matter is actually the fact that you said, it has no effect. It's okay, it's over."
Yang Fan kept listening and said, "Dabao, I said, Fatty will not care, but it's better to open it."
Yu Debao raised his wine glass, drank it all, and said, "Xiao Dong, sorry, I'll give you an apology wine."
Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "In our Shandong Province, can a beer be considered an apology? What do you want the people in the imperial capital to think, what do you want the people in the demon capital to think? What do you want the people in the Jiangnan Province to think?"
Yang Fan smiled and said, "Yes, what do you want the hen to think, what do you think of the duck? Dabao, if you want to express your sincerity, you have to blow a bottle."
Yu Debao's eyes shone brightly. He understood that at this time, Gao Xiaodong really forgave him. He raised a bottle of beer and said proudly: "Okay, I'll blow one."
A bottle of beer was delicious, but not easy to blow. Yu Debao was halfway through, and was choked and coughed, and the beer was sprayed on his face.
Gao Xiaodong and Yang Fan couldn't help laughing when they saw it.
Although the New Year overseas is deserted, with brothers and friends and friendship, Gao Xiaodong's New Year's Eve is also very happy. They drink and chat about the happiness and depression in life. It was past ten o'clock, and it was already the first day of the Chinese New Year in the morning. The three of them took out their cell phones to wish their parents and elders a happy New Year.
Gao Xiaodong did not forget to help him, Director Chu, Teacher Zhou, Zhang Mingsheng, Chen Qiang, etc., he called them to greet New Year's greetings one by one. Director Chu and the others were very happy and encouraged Gao Xiaodong to ask him to rest early before hanging up the phone.
After calling around, even the monkey had called. Gao Xiaodong remembered that he didn't call Xiao Le. He patted his head and quickly called Xiao Le's cell phone: "Miss Xiaole, Happy New Year."
Xiao Le said for a while: "Happy New Year! Fatty, I just remembered me now. It's not that beautiful women are always easily forgotten."
Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "The most important person is the last one to appear."
"I'm so slick, but for your sake, I'll forgive you, goodbye."
Gao Xiaodong was speechless, "See you this time, I won't chat about two dollars."
Xiao Le smiled and said, "It's almost 12 o'clock on your side. Go to bed quickly. I'll have to train tomorrow. I'll chat later. I'll die."
Xiao Le took the initiative to hang up the phone, and Gao Xiaodong was moved, but this guy thought again and again, he thought, "Miss Xiao Le was doing some special morning fortune and was disturbed by me."
After making the phone call, the three of them were drunk and sleepy. Without taking off their clothes, they lay on a bed and fell asleep.
The next morning, Yang Fan and Yu Debao took a bus back to Lisbon. Gao Xiaodong ran to Rexos' training base as usual.
The players have not come yet, only head coach Oliveira is patrolling the stadium. Gao Xiaodong greeted Oliveira, and Oliveira said: "Happy New Year."
"Thank you, thank you." Gao Xiaodong was surprised. Unexpectedly, Oliveira also knew that today was the Chinese Spring Festival.
Oliveira looked at Gao Xiaodong and said in English: "What's going on with you and Oliveira?"
Gao Xiaodong could barely understand this sentence, and he also said in the simplest English: "He doesn't like me and doesn't cooperate with me."
Oliveira said: "You have to take the initiative to resolve conflicts with him. Football is a team sport. In addition, you have to improve your abilities and make your teammates trust you."
After Oliveira said that, she saw Gao Xiaodong's face full of confusion and confusion, shook her head and said nothing.
In fact, Gao Xiaodong pretended to be confused. He even understood Oliveira's meaning after hearing the guess, but this was not his fault. Why did he take the initiative to resolve the conflict with Robert? It was not generous or admit defeat. No one in 28 people would not do it.
When the resumption training was in the morning, the players of Rexos were still not in high spirits. Except for Gao Xiaodong, everyone read the news and newspapers. The national media still did not care much about the Portuguese game. Only the female reporter from "Issue" criticized Gao Xiaodong again. However, the local media "North Porto Sports" severely criticized Rexos' state and style of play, and believed that if there was no quick adjustment, Rexos was very likely to repeat the mistakes of last season again.
Head coach Oliveira is a veteran who leads many clubs to upgrade. At this time, he did not lose his composure, but gave the players a day off as usual, but he kept Robert.
When he came to the office, poured Robert a glass of water, Oliveira said to Robert: "Sit down."
Robert sat down, "Coach, have something to do with me?"
Oliveira said: "Although you came from the winter break, your old player has played in the Portuguese League and the Portuguese Super League for many years. The team is in a bad state now. You must play a mainstay in the team."
Robert hurriedly said: "Coach, I scored three goals in three games, this is a proof of my efforts."
Oliveira nodded and said, "I see your efforts, but the team's performance is not good. In three games, one win, one loss and one draw, but the one draw is the relegation team. For our team that is determined to advance to the Super League, this result is not up to par."
Robert frowned and said, "I think our luck is a little worse, and my mentality is a little impatient. Just like in this game with Portimos, we must be stronger than them and have many opportunities to create, but we scored as many goals as our opponents."
Robert is an old player who has been in the Portuguese League and the Portuguese Super League for many years. He has rich experience and is very accurate in his team's problems.
Oliveira said: "Then how do you think we should solve this problem?"
Robert said: "At the critical moment of the Super League, I think we should use experienced old players. For example, some young players will only run around and cause trouble after they come on the court."
Robert thought Oliveira was asking him, an old player about the team's dilemma, and was complacent for a moment, pointing straight at Gao Xiaodong, but forgot that Gao Xiaodong was sent by Oliveira. He said this to mean that Oliveira was not using people properly.
Oliveira was unhappy and beaten up, saying, "Robert, young people have shortcomings, but they also have motivation. An old player like you should lead him more. If you have any problems, criticize him."
When Robert heard Oliveira say this, he immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing and said, "That's a must. Without the help of old players like us, how could they grow up."
"Well, old players must have this awareness. Only in this way can our team continue to develop and achieve good results."
Oliveira and Robert chatted for a while before letting Robert leave.
