Chapter 435

Los Angeles International Airport

When the plane landed, the players and coaches of European giant Inter Milan were still a little worried. Although AA companies arranged and organized people to pick them up, they were still a little afraid of being treated coldly.?

As we all know, the United States is a football desert. The most popular sport here is rugby, baseball and basketball. Football is not even the fourth sport. Apart from the superstars who have been among the top three in the Golden Ball List, no one else will have many fans here.

But when they walked out of the cabin, all their worries disappeared, and the "fans" who came to pick them up far exceeded the sum of the previous four visits, and they also exceeded their imagination.

Thousands of fans wearing jerseys, holding flowers and posters were waiting for the arrival of Inter Milan players.

Mourinho also had some doubts and said to assistant coach Boas: "How come so many fans will pick up the plane?"

Boas was also confused and said, "It may be that Nike has taken action to organize people."

Inter Milan players were a little excited and felt very proud. It seemed that there were not so many fans coming to Milan. It seemed that after winning several league championships, their popularity and fame had spread far to North America.

However, as soon as we approached, the stars of Inter Milan were disappointed. It turned out that most of the people who came to pick up the plane were blackheaded, black eyes and yellow skin. Most of them wore Inter Milan jerseys, and some wore Porto jerseys, which accounted for almost three-quarters of the number of people picked up the plane.

"So it was the one who picked up this kid."

"Why are there so many people picking up that kid?"

“Los Angeles is the city with the most Chinese in the United States.”

"That is, there is a certain status among Chinese people."

...

Inter Milan players whispered, jealous, disdainful and dissatisfied, but they could only watch Gao Xiaodong become the focus of fans and reporters.

Gao Xiaodong was also very excited. This is the territory of the US imperial concubine. He is not basketball superstar Yao Ming. He has just become famous and has such a grand courtesy. He can't control himself if he is not excited.

Balotelli and Gao Xiaodong were surrounded by fans. Seeing Gao Xiaodong busy following flowers and gifts, just like a bear breaking a stick, picking up this and losing that, but no one paid attention to him. Balotelli shouted: "Where is my gift, I am taller than Xiaodong Melon and handsomer than him."

No one understood Balotelli's Italian language, but there were still a few fans who couldn't touch Gao Xiaodong, so they simply gave the flowers to this big black man.

If Gao Xiaodong is the center that fans welcome, then the center is Mourinho.

Although he is a head coach, Mourinho is different from the traditional head coach. He and Guardiola are the new generation of coaches. They are not completely behind the scenes, and they also have high popularity and fame among the fans and the public.

Compared with Gao Xiaodong who was busy, Mourinho was much more elegant. He calmly followed the fans' gift and handed it to Boas casually. He could also say thank you to the fans and sign an autograph.

Apart from Gao Xiaodong and Mourinho, the most popular among fans is Matrazi.

After being overwhelmed by Qi Zujin in the World Cup in 6, Matrazi, who was defensively vulgar, seemed to be shining and became famous. Even North American Big Six knows his name.

After simply answering several questions from the reporter, Mourinho led a large team of 70 people to the AA company bus to the Four Seasons Hotel where he was staying.

From Italy to the United States, the nearly 12-hour flight made everyone feel exhausted, but the sculpture of Marilyn Monroe at the hotel gate made many people interested. Tordo, who was old and unhappy, was the first to run over to take a photo with him, while Balotelli pressed his hands on Marilyn, Monroe's chest and shouted to Gao Xiaodong: "It's so big, much bigger than Betty's."

Gao Xiaodong was speechless.

When the room was divided, Balotelli wanted to live with Gao Xiaodong, but Boas did not allow it and divided Quaresma and Gao Xiaodong into a room.

Quaresma, like Gao Xiaodong, performed bravely in Porto, and then came to Inter Milan at a high price. Then Quaresma fell into a vicious circle of giants. In half a season in Inter Milan, he played 13 games, but he did not score a single goal and did not have an assist. No one can understand his famous skill, his pass from the outside instep, and his fancy extraordinary skills did not work in front of Italy's iron-blooded defender, and he could only loan to Chelsea during the winter break.

Because of Quaresma's poor performance, Mourinho's plan to introduce Portuguese players to establish the Portuguese gang in Inter Milan was all failed, which is also an important reason why Mourinho was unable to achieve better results in the Champions League.

After returning from loan from Chelsea, Moratti and Blanca wanted to sell Quaresma and let Quaresma be the top player in Gao Xiaodong's transfer, but Quaresma refused to leave. He also wanted to prove himself in Inter Milan. After all, he had failed once in Barcelona, ​​and Quaresma did not want to fail again.

Mourinho also cared about his compatriots and did not force Quaresma to stay first.

Quares was actually excluded by the Argentine gang last season. He wanted to prove himself in Inter Milan, but was isolated and helpless. Gao Xiaodong's arrival gave him hope.

During the break, Quaresma said to Gao Xiaodong in Portuguese: "You have been in Inter Milan for three days. How do you feel?"

Gao Xiaodong was lying on the bed and was having a jet lag. Hearing this, he said, "It's okay, I can't speak, but it's actually no different from blind and deaf."

Quaresma said: "Didn't you give me a translation?"

Gao Xiaodong said: "What you want to know is something you can never know from the translator."

Quaresma gave a thumbs up and said, "It's right. No matter how ugly the words are, the hypocritical Italian translator can also package it into a good translation for you."

Quaresma said, "Did you see that Inter Milan is actually divided into gangs."

Gao Xiaodong had heard Mourinho and Mendes say a long time ago, but he still pretended not to understand: "It's all from all over the world, where are there any gangs?"

"Yes, the gang problem is very serious, and Coach Jose is having a headache."

Quaresma raised the situation of Inter Milan and denounced the Argentine gang's isolation and exclusion of him, believing that this was the fundamental reason why he had not been able to gain a foothold in Inter Milan.

Although after the South American players returned today, Gao Xiaodong also felt the huge power of the South American Gang, Gao Xiaodong did not think that Quaresma could not play the game was exclusion from the South American Gang. Porto's South American Gang was also very powerful. Quaresma was also very prosperous in Porto. Of course, Gao Xiaodong would definitely not say that.

Quaresma said: "Although you are a Chinese and the third world of Inter Milan, you are also from Porto and we are our own people. If Alves comes again, there will be coach Jose, assistant coach Boas, and support from Figo who entered the management team. We will have the right to speak in the locker room."

Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "I don't think the gang is the most important thing. As long as you keep scoring goals and assisting, the coach can't put you on the bench."

Quaresma said angrily: "You have a forward-study teammate who doesn't pass the ball to you, you don't fill up the ball when you attack, you are double-teamed, and your teammates watch the fun, it's strange that you can play well."

Gao Xiaodong said in surprise: "Don't the coach care?"

Quaresma said: "These guys are all old players in their thirties, so how can the coach catch the handle?

"Okay, I'm a newcomer. You are the big brother, but you have to take care of me." Gao Xiaodong put a high hat on Quaresma.

"This is naturally. When you came, the assistant coach Boas told me to take care of you. In fact, if the coach doesn't say it, I will take care of you. We are from the same club, you are just like my little brother."

Boas's assistant coach did say that Quaresma had asked him to take care of Gao Xiaodong, but Quaresma was only half of it. Boas also told Quaresma that Gao Xiaodong is Mourinho's most trusted player, so Quaresma asked him to assist Gao Xiaodong well.

Quaresma was also made from Porto. He was as famous as Luo at the time. He was arrogant and naturally did not want to be willing to assist Gao Xiaodong. He felt that Gao Xiaodong was young and hoped that Gao Xiaodong could help him lay a foundation in Inter Milan.

"Thank you, brother, I'll invite you to drink afterwards."
