Player tunnel.
Deng Kai carried a bag of footballs and prepared to return to the locker room.
He had a great day.
"Your behavior disgusts me!"
Ronaldo walked out of the corner, his eyes were red, and he had obviously cried: "Do you really like those stars? Or do you just want to exchange these things for money?"
"Don't you think what you did was despicable?"
"You have soiled football!"
"People like you don't deserve to win against me! You don't deserve to hold the trophy!"
Deng Kai shrugged his shoulders: "It was not easy for my parents to give birth to me and raise me. If I wanted to play football, they would send me to play football. If I wanted to study, they would pay my tuition."
"Although our nationality is Portuguese, we are outsiders after all. It is not easy for Chinese families in Lisbon. My father's salary is below Portugal's per capita GDP, and my mother's salary is even meager."
"So I can put down my dignity and ask the big stars to give me autographs, telling lies that neither they nor I believe, and then sell these things."
"Do you think Guardiola and the others don't know? They know, but they are still willing to sign autographs for me because they know how hard life is."
"Of course, I do feel guilty and ashamed because of this behavior, but I am willing to bear this suffering."
“Because I know that when I go home with that wad of money, my parents might be able to stay home on the weekends and rest their exhausted bodies and minds instead of going out to work their second or third jobs. "
"Is this disgusting?"
Deng Kai looked at Ronaldo.
The latter's eyes gradually drifted away.
Ronaldo had to admit that he was stunned by Deng Kai's words.
Because this is something he hasn't considered yet.
At this stage, Ronaldo has not given or repaid his family.
His family conditions are equally difficult, and it is not easy for parents to support so many children.
But because of his talent in football, his parents responded to his requests and invested the most in him among his siblings.
Therefore, Ronaldo knows about the financial difficulties that other members of the family can feel, but cannot feel them.
At worst, others wear Adidas, while he wears other brands, but at least he wears something.
The first time Cristiano Ronaldo was surrounded by severe inferiority complex and realized the difficulties of his parents and brothers was after he came to Lisbon from Madeira.
That is, in the next two to three months.
That changed his personality a lot.
"I'm not talking about this, I'm talking about your behavior on the court!" Ronaldo changed the subject, "You are a thief, stole a penalty kick, and stole a victory that belongs to me!"
"Flip! Diving! Is this all you have learned in school in the past three years?"
"You have let me down too much!"
Seeing the excited Ronaldo, Deng Kai put down what he was holding. He walked towards Ronaldo and asked: "Chris, don't you understand?"
"It's the same thing."
"This game is just an honor for you, just a trophy."
"But for me, it's a job opportunity and the most important step on my path to becoming a professional player."
"And after I become a professional player, I can make my parents never have to work, let them return to their motherland to be with their relatives and friends, and let Europeans know that Chinese players can also be cultivated... The things we carry are completely different. "
"And, my football, why should I play according to your ideas?"
"Keep dribbling, waiting to be overtaken and intercepted by you?"
"My speed is far inferior to yours, so I should be surpassed by you without thinking of any other solution?"
"My height is also much lower than yours, so when the two of us compete for the top, I should remain indifferent and give the ball to you?"
"My body is not as strong as yours, so when you break through, I should let you rush through without any hindrance?"
"My dribbling is not as good as yours, so when you make a fancy pass, I can only applaud you and watch you score?"
"Then if that's the case, why are we still playing this game?"
"I'll just give you the trophy! Because your team is obviously better than ours!"
"If this is what football should be like, then I won't like football."
"The only reason why I like football is that even if I am short, even if I am weak, even if I am slow, even if my skills are not good, as long as I am willing to run hard and work hard to use my brain to think of a way, I can win." A victory I didn’t deserve!”
"There is a weak kicking method, a strong kicking method. Did I say that you don't follow martial ethics if you rely on speed and body to eat me alive?"
"I won't say that misjudgment is part of the game, and I won't deny that my last roll was part of a performance, but did I really violate the rules of the game?"
"If I break it, please let the rules punish me, not your mouth!"
Ronaldo wanted to refute Deng Kai several times, but was pushed back every time.
It wasn't until Deng Kai finished speaking that Ronaldo said angrily: "Weakness is not your reason, at least your method is not upright!"
Deng Kai shook his head: "Do you really care about being upright? No, you think it is not upright, just because you can't use this method yourself."
"But will you really never need it? Can you really always play like you are crushing opponents of the same age? Even in the Portuguese Super League, the five major leagues, the Champions League, the European Cup and the World Cup?"
"Will not!"
"Ronaldo has to dive."
"Zidane always deliberately knocks down his opponents."
"Rivaldo is stalling for time."
"Figo has to lie a little bit."
"Romario wants to elbow anyone."
"Batistuta has to hit the goalkeeper."
"Can you always play football without getting your clothes dirty? Who are you?"
"I appreciate your pride, but if it turns into arrogance, then today's failure will not be the most painful failure of your career."
"Cristiano Ronaldo, you will become one of the most powerful players on the planet. But only if you get rid of those bad habits in yourself!"
"If you pass the ball to your teammates one more time today, you will be the one to take home the championship trophy."
"Remember the four times you were intercepted by me?"
"What you gave me was not the ball, but the trophy."
After Deng Kai finished speaking, he left, leaving Ronaldo alone in the passage, red-faced and deep in thought.
Deng Kai turned at the end of the channel, but as soon as he turned around, he saw Guardiola.
He obviously heard it all.
Guardiola's face was covered with tears, because in Deng Kai's words, he heard the struggle of a teenager with insufficient physical talent, and heard a mature child's responsibility for family responsibilities, just like Guardiola himself.
As long as he is stronger, faster and taller, he will not sit in the backcourt. He will become the core of the frontcourt like Zidane and become a contender for the Ballon d'Or.
In the past few years, he will not be troubled by injuries, so he began to be defined as a purge target by Barcelona's top brass and missed this World Cup.
Cristiano Ronaldo may not understand what Deng Kai said, but Guardiola understands it too well.
"Do you need me to sign some more autographs for you? No matter how many, a hundred will do." Guardiola was extremely gentle.
"Of course, thank you, but... just three or five will be fine." Deng Kai nodded.
"It's okay kid, my hands are not sore." Guardiola still wanted to sign more for Deng Kai.
"No, if there are too many signed footballs, they will be worthless in the market." Deng Kai politely refused, "How about you ask your teammates to sign some and send them to me? My address is..."
Veins bulged on Guardiola's bald head.
But he really has a business acumen.
So Guardiola found the organizer, paid and took away some footballs. After signing all the footballs, he packed the footballs himself and sent them into a taxi with Deng Kai.
After doing this, Guardiola immediately called Van Gaal.
He has a complicated relationship with the coach. The other side promoted him to become the captain of Barcelona, and also took a fancy to him, the fourth-position midfielder, and regarded him as the team's core organizer.
But at the same time, some of Van Gaal's ideas run counter to Guardiola's.
Moreover, he is not very good at building relationships with players. Even if the players he has worked with become closer at first, they will probably fall out in the future.
Therefore, Guardiola has always kept a distance from Van Gaal.
But this time he couldn't care less.
He felt that La Masia should accept the child.
Although Deng Kai is not a talented player, his philosophy of doing whatever it takes to win is a perfect fit for Barcelona.
Because Barcelona, which has been soaring all the way from youth training to the first team under the concept of ball control, will need such non-technical players sooner or later in the future.
After getting through the phone, Van Gaal said he would contact the person in charge of Barcelona's youth training.
But it could be heard that he didn't care much about it.
