"Apologize"?Li Qiao asked.
"yes",
Li Qiao was even more confused by Stan's words, he shrugged and said, "Now I can tell you exactly what it is."
It turned out that this was the case. After the second match against Nigeria in the group stage, European clubs began to inquire about Li Qiao one after another, but the most sincere ones were the offers sent by the two clubs.
According to international practice, club inquiries must notify the player's club and the player's agent at the same time, but Li Qiao has only transferred once, and that time was operated by Stan. Now Li Qiao does not have a full-time agent, so the above two clubs approached Stan.
"It was selfish for me not to tell you, so I apologize," Stein said.
Li Qiao didn't blame Stan, it was indeed inappropriate to talk about transfers while the World Cup was still going on.
"Hehe, Stan, you are not wrong, you are doing it for my own good."
Stan also laughed, "It's fine if you don't care, then there is one more thing you have to think about."
"what"?
"Find a suitable agent. I can help you with many things in China, but when you go to Europe, you need an exclusive agent."
Li Qiao thought: "Where can I find a suitable agent for a while?"
The role of an agent is very important in the mature professional football world in Europe. A good agent can allow players to train and play with peace of mind.Bad agents treat players like cash cows, just to extract money, and don't care about the player's career.
"Stan, do you have a suitable candidate to recommend"?
Stan shook his head and said, "Joe, the waters of professional football in Europe are very deep. In the past, you only had to train hard and play games. If you land in Europe after the World Cup, you will have to face more things."
Li Qiao nodded, but also a little worried, "It will be very difficult to leave China to play football, but it is a bigger stage, and Li Qiao thinks he is ready."
"Stan, no matter how difficult it is, I have decided to go to Europe to play football",
Stan was happy to hear that from Joe Li. He always knew that Guangzhou Tianbao was just an overkill for a player like Joe Li. He had been preparing for the day when Joe would spread his wings, and that day finally came.
"If you really can't find a suitable agent for a while, then go to your father," Stein said.
"My father"?
"Yes, the agents of many stars are their own family members. Anelka's agent is his brother, and Robben's agent is his father "Hans Robben".
Li Qiao thought about it and thought it was a good idea.
"Good idea, I'll discuss it with my dad,"
Stan nodded, "Oh, that's right." Stan turned around and started looking for things. After searching for a while, he handed Li Qiao two pieces of paper, "This is a fax from their two clubs. This one is from Dortmund, and this one is from Dynamo Kiev."
Li Qiao took it over and took a look, and found that Stan was staring at him.
"how"?
Stan laughed and said, "I'd love to know which one you would choose"?
This is not an easy choice, he is not only about money and honor, but also about Li Qiao's future.
"What about the transfer fee?"Li Qiao asked.
"That's a matter between them and the club. I don't know for the time being. My current role is your agent. What they talk about with me is only your personal wishes."
Li Qiao thought: "If you go to Dynamo Kiev, you will immediately have the main position. If you go to Dortmund, the stage will be bigger, but everything is still unknown. For Li Qiao, Kiev is half his home, and Dortmund is as strange as Mars."
"I can't make up my mind right now," Li Qiao said.
Stan nodded, expressing his understanding, "It's okay, the last time I can get you an answer is July 7th."
"Why July 7th"?
"Think about it",
Li Qiao thought for a while, only to realize that July 7th is the day of the World Cup finals, that is to say, he would reply before the end of the World Cup.
Stan laughed and said: "I thought we would make it to the finals, so I gave them this day, but I didn't expect...".
Li Qiao chuckled, "Stan, you really dare to think about it."
"Well, I promise a decision will be made by that day."
Stan supported Li Qiao's shoulder and said: "Joe, you will have to face many things alone in the future, and I can no longer cover you."
Li Qiao smiled, "Don't worry, I'm an adult now." After speaking, Li Qiao posed in a Popeye pose and showed off his biceps.
Stan laughed too, "I'm relieved."
*****
The next day, Li Qiao had a long talk with his father Li Shan, and finally Li Shan agreed to be his son's manager and go with his son.
After solving the agent problem, Li Qiao, his teammates, and Stan concentrated on being a fan and watching the World Cup.
After Ukraine eliminated the Chinese team, they met the Dutch team in the quarter-finals. After 120 minutes of fierce fighting, the two teams were still zero to zero, and finally entered a brutal penalty shootout.
Ukraine's top penalty shooter "Korbin" missed the first penalty kick, while the Netherlands team made all five free throws. In the end, the Netherlands team defeated the Ukraine team in a penalty shootout and advanced to the semi-finals.
After the game, Prahimi burst into tears. Li Qiao went down to the stadium to comfort Xiao Hei. The World Cup is like this. 32 teams came to Brazil happily, but in the end only one team was able to leave with the gold cup.
After entering the semi-finals, everyone witnessed another incredible game. In "Belo Horizonte", everyone saw the German team beating the host Brazil team 7-1. After 30 minutes of the first half, the Brazilian fans on the scene cried and cried in silence. No one believed that this was true, even the neutral fans who watched the game could not believe what they saw.
"Let's fix the match," Qi Bing said.
Everyone laughed. Although no one can guarantee that there will be no match-fixing in the World Cup, the possibility of match-fixing in the semi-finals is basically non-existent.
Li Weifeng, who was studying abroad in Brazil back then, was also unhappy. In his heart, Brazilian football was his enlightenment teacher, but he was also very emotional when he saw that Brazilian football is not popular now.
If the World Cup is a train that keeps moving forward, then after the semi-finals, the last two teams that got off the train came into being. Brazil and the Netherlands can only compete for No.3, and the final held in Rio "Maracana" will witness the new king of international football in the next four years.
*****
On July 7th, on the "Copacabana" beach in Rio de Janeiro, blue sky, blue sea, beauties, handsome men, champagne, whiskey, everything you can think of about the party is here. It can be said that today is a big open-air party.
Tickets for the finals were hard to find, and the players of the Chinese team couldn't buy tickets either. They had to rent a seat on the "Copacabana" beach and watch the huge big screen in the distance.
"Fortunately, I didn't get a ticket. Watching the game here is an enjoyment," Wei Xiao said.
The players were wearing beach shorts, some were lying on the beach, some were lying on deck chairs, and Qi Qi was playing beach football with the locals in the distance. Indeed, this was the first time for everyone to watch football like this.
Stan is holding a notebook. Even though he is watching the game in such a comfortable environment, he still can't forget his work and draws and draws in his notebook.
Most of the Chinese players on the scene are German fans, and there are also a few Argentine fans, but everyone will not bicker over this.
When Higuain scored a goal in the first half, Zhou Dun immediately yelled: "Offside!" Sure enough, Zhou Dun saw it very accurately. Judging from the replay, the goal was indeed offside.
In the first half, the Argentine team had the upper hand. The German team lost the magic power to slaughter Brazil in the semi-finals. Messi had an absolute advantage in the face of "Hummels".
But at the last moment of the first half, the German took advantage of a corner kick, and Hewedes's header hit the post heavily. The German fans in the Chinese team covered their heads like "Hewedes", regretting that they did not score this time.
In the second half, the sun began to set, and the afterglow of the setting sun cast a long shadow on the beach. The sea breeze was stronger, and the players all added a piece of clothing.The game was very stalemate, neither team had scored yet, and the scene was a little dull.
In the end, the two teams entered overtime. This was the third consecutive World Cup final. In overtime, Argentina's offense was more aggressive. Li Qiao turned his head and saw that many Argentine fans were praying silently in the distance, looking very nervous.
When everyone thought that this mediocre final was going to a penalty shootout, the German golden boy Goetze turned out and swept the ball into the goal with a taekwondo move. At this time, the group of Argentine fans must have mixed feelings. This night obviously did not belong to them.
When the German knelt on the ground looking up to the sky and screaming, the camera zoomed in on Messi, the king of the ball was a little lonely, he had everything, and all the honors were softened, except for the Hercules Cup, which was so close to the world.
The championship was born, the World Cup was really over, and suddenly, the players felt a little sad in the sea breeze. The Chinese team is the undisputed dark horse of this cup. We have been brilliant. When the curtain falls, a little sadness is inevitable.
When the German team lifted the gold cup, Qi Bing asked a question that amused everyone, "That thing is heavy."
No one answered the monkey's question, because no one here has ever lifted the Hercules Cup in person.Suddenly Stan turned to Qi Bing and said: "This problem can only be understood when you hold it up one day."
Stan's dream is big, everyone smiled, fireworks rose on the beach, this moment is gorgeous for Germany, so what about four years later?For whom.
