Chapter 475: I Just Don't Want to Be Too Lonely
When Rongguang was still training, Debora had already returned to Munich from China, and then she called Rongguang to report the results of the negotiations with the Chinese club.
Gao Lin belongs to the Shanghai Shenhua Club.
But if that's all there is to it, the transfer is simple.
However, in October this year, there will be the 10th National Games in China, which will be held in Jiangsu Province.
Gao Lin, as a member of the Shanghai team, will participate in the football competition of the National Games.
The Shanghai Football Association and the Sports Commission are not very willing to let Gao Lin play abroad before the National Games.
So Gao Lin's transfer abroad has reached an impasse.
After hearing Debola's report, Rong Guang especially couldn't understand this kind of thing.
In his opinion, what could be more important than playing abroad?
Games?
What's that?
Can it be compared to the Europa League?
Even if it's not for money, for your own future, it's obvious that the Europa League is better than the National Games, right?
Are those officials in their heads?
Rong Guang couldn't figure out why the local football association opposed Chinese players playing abroad.
After playing at the World Junior Championships, he already understands very well what the domestic football environment in China is like - when his teammates chat together, they will ask Rongguang about his experience of playing football in Europe, and his words are very envious, but also reveal the depression of playing in China.
So Rongguang knows what it is like to play football in China.
Although he does not have a deeper understanding of many problems in Chinese football, he also knows that playing abroad is a good way out. Looking at Brazilian football, he knows that if Chinese football has enough players playing in places like Europe, the level of Chinese football will definitely improve by leaps and bounds.
Shouldn't the Chinese Football Association be for the good of Chinese football?
Why would you do something detrimental to Chinese football?
In Rongguang's view, not allowing promising Chinese players to play abroad is a behavior that is detrimental to Chinese football.

When Rongguang expressed his incomprehension of the approach of the Shanghai Football Association and the Sports Commission, he received a call from Gao Lin across the ocean.
"Captain, I'm here to thank you." Gao Lin said to Rong Guang on the phone. "I met your agent in Shanghai. She told me everything......"
Since playing the World Youth Championships, the players of the national youth team have been accustomed to calling Rong Guang "captain". is different from the "boss" and "big brother" who have a strong atmosphere of rivers and lakes. The term "captain" seems a little more pure, more like the relationship between players and players.
"I just stopped by and didn't help yet." Glory is still regretting this.
Gao Lin's voice was also a little depressed: "I know the way, captain." Even if I didn't make it, I still have to thank you. At least I know it, and my level is still recognized by European teams. I think...... That's my biggest takeaway. ”
Rongguang listened to Gao Lin's words, and he didn't know what to say.
He felt that Gao Lin was still a little unwilling to be able to play abroad.
There was a sudden silence between the two.
Gao Lin probably didn't want the atmosphere to be too embarrassing, so he forced a smile and said, "But it's nothing, captain." At least...... We also have people who want European teams! ”
Rongguang asked him: "Then do you still want to play abroad?" ”
Gao Lin was stunned for a moment before replying, "Yes...... If they could, who wouldn't? I dreamed of it! ”
Rongguang made a decision in his heart, and then he said to Gao Lin, "Then you wait for my news." ”
Before Gao Lin could react, he saw Rongguang hang up the phone.
He held his mobile phone, which was constantly ringing, and thought about the last thing the captain had said to him.
Waiting for news from the captain?
Wait for the captain's news?
Do I still have any hope of playing abroad?
※※※
The reason why Rongguang hung up Gao Lin's phone so quickly was because he was in a hurry to call another person.
To help Gao Lin play abroad, Rong Guang must first figure out why the National Games are so important in the minds of the Chinese local government that they dare to prevent Gao Lin from going abroad for the sake of such an event that Rong Rong knows nothing about.
Neither he nor Debora knew about it, but someone did.
Glory's call was to Molly.
On the phone, he told Molly about his doubts and the transfer of Gao Lin.
In fact, Molly herself knows about Gao Lin's transfer, after all, it is not a secret. The fact that Werder Bremen is interested in Gao Lin may not be well known to Chinese fans, but for Chinese journalists in Germany, it has definitely spread a long time ago.
Everyone knows very well why Werder Bremen will be interested in Gao Lin - after tasting the sweetness of using Chinese players in Rongguang, Werder Bremen naturally wants to bring in more Chinese players. Gao Lin, who performed well at the World Youth Championships and scored two goals, has naturally become a target of interest for Werder Bremen.
However, when Gao Lin turned back to run into trouble, Molly didn't know what to do.
After listening to Glory's question, Molly understood what was going on.
"In fact, the Shanghai Local Football Association and the Sports Commission are very normal to Gao Lin's actions, Rong. You don't know about the National Games because you don't play at home. For China's local sports committees and governments, in a sense, the National Games is an event that deserves more attention than the Olympic Games. Because the results of the National Games directly determine the performance of their local sports committees and the promotion of officials. If anything is linked to the future of officials, it is not so simple to 'do things according to the rules'. ”
Molly began to explain to Rong Guang why the National Games would be so important.
“…… Gao Lin, as a player who performed well in the World Youth Championships, is naturally the ace of the Shanghai football team. If the ace is released from the country like this, resulting in the Shanghai team not achieving good results in the National Games, then who is the responsibility of the last? Whoever allowed Gao Lin to be released from the country was whose responsibility. In fact, those officials all know that playing abroad is definitely a good thing for Gao Lin, and Chinese football also needs more players to play abroad. But when it comes to their vital interests, they don't make that decision. No one can joke about his political achievements and future selflessly, Rong ......"
"So, if Gao Lin were to leave Shanghai Shenhua this summer and go to Werder Bremen, it would be very difficult. The local football association was unwilling, and Gao Lin couldn't go. After all, he is still a player under the Football Association, and the Football Association has a management relationship with him, unlike you, Rong. You started out on a wild path, so the Football Association couldn't control you at all. ”
After listening to Molly's explanation, Rongguang also found that the problem was serious.
"Then Gao Lin can't go abroad to play football? This opportunity is such a good ......"
"It's not impossible, anything can be discussed. But it depends on how interested Werder Bremen is in Golling...... If it is big enough, then talk to Shanghai to see if we can find a result that is satisfactory to both parties. Other than that...... I can also help and put some public pressure on the Shanghai side, and we can still do it. ”
Glory is not bad to hear.
So he nodded: "Then please, Sister Mo." ”

After ending the joint venture with Molly, Rongguang called Alofs again.
Alofs already knew the attitude of the Shanghai side.
He felt very unbelievable and incomprehensible that the Chinese side would prevent players from playing abroad because of a national games.
So Glory had no choice but to relay the explanation that Molly had told him to Alofs.
In front of the glory, Alofs couldn't say anything too ugly, so he had to say that the situation of each family was different, and China was really eye-opening.
Glory could actually hear it, but he automatically ignored this subtext of Alofs.
He asked Alofs if he was still interested in Golin.
"Of course we are interested, Gao has been very good at the World Junior Championships and we have sent scouts to follow the whole process...... But now this is the case...... Naturally, we can't accept that a player who has been playing at the club for two months will have to go back to China to play in the National Games......"
Alofs grumbled.
"That's why I'm calling you, Mr. Manager. I think we can talk about it, and if you really want to be high, I believe that Gao is a very good player......"
"How to discuss, Rong?" For glory, Alofs is still very polite.
After all, Glory has now become a legend in the history of Werder Bremen, even though he has only played for the team for two seasons......
Rong Guang thought for a moment, and then made his own suggestion: "If Werder Bremen is not willing to let their players return to play in the National Games...... So will Werder Bremen agree to bring in another high during the winter break? This also avoids the risk that if Gao is injured while returning home for the National Games, Werder Bremen will not have to bear any losses. What do you think of this proposal, Mr. Manager? ”
Alofs fell silent.
Introduced during the winter break?
Can Gao Lin, who joined the team halfway, adapt to the team? He missed the all-important summer camp, will he still be happy with his performance with the team?
These are questions that make him hesitate.
But...... This is recommended by Rongguang, and I can't refuse it directly, right?
That's too shameless for glory.
Either way, Alofs didn't want to have a stiff relationship with Glory.
He thought about it again and again, and suddenly asked: "Rong, Gao has his own agent, if he succeeds in the transfer, the Shanghai club and him will not share a penny from you, why do you have to work so hard to help him?" ”
Rong Guangxin said that you didn't call me for help? I just thought that since I helped, I would help to the end!
But it's not easy to say this directly.
He thought of Golling's tone of frustration as he thought he would never have the chance to play abroad again.
"I just don't want to be too lonely in Europe, Mr. Manager."
"Okay, Rong. Werder Bremen will take your suggestion seriously. ”
Alofs said with a sigh.
"Thank you, Mr. Manager."
After the business was over, Alofs also had the heart to joke, and he smiled: "Don't say Xie Lu Xie, Rong." The next time you face us, just be merciful, ha! ”
Rongguang also smiled: "I promise not to celebrate after the goal, Mr. Manager." ”
