Chapter 204 Can't Climb High (Make Up for Yesterday's Guarantee)
After playing the game on Saturday and having a holiday on Sunday afternoon, Gao Xiaodong and Monkey went out with Xiao Le to buy some gifts for the New Year.
With the improvement of Gao Xiaodong's status and reputation, Xiao Le's status in Chen Qiang's company as Gao Xiaodong's assistant rose sharply, and his salary more than doubled.
It was the first time for Xiao Le to go home to celebrate the New Year after his salary was raised. Just like Gao Xiaodong's first return to China, Gao Xiaodong and the monkey could barely carry the big and small bags.
While eating dinner, Gao Xiaodong said: "Sister Xiaole, the monkey has to go to work tomorrow, and I don't train in the morning, so I just take you to the airport."
Xiao Le said: "Okay, but what will you do when you come back, who will drive my car?"
Monkey smiled and said, "Sister Xiaole, you don't know yet, the fat man has already got his driver's license."
Xiao Le said in surprise: "Why is it so fast, it took me two months."
Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "We have a solution."
Xiao Le snorted and said, "It must be crooked again, but you can't be opportunistic. If something happens, you will be in trouble. You forgot that there is a famous player in China who can't play football because of a car accident."
Gao Xiaodong said: "Sister, can you say something nice, I'm going to show you something tomorrow."
Xiao Le said: "You two are too floating, eager for quick success, Mr. Chen doesn't care about you, I'm just reminding you."
The monkey grinned and said, "Why are you so eager for quick success? Fatty already got a driver's license in China, but he didn't recognize it when he came abroad. Of course we have to use some tricks. I have to take my driver's license test as soon as possible. I heard that the price will increase in the future. B and Before participating in the actual road test, the students of b1 must complete 32 hours and 1000 kilometers of actual road driving operations outside the expressway. The teaching vehicle must also be equipped with a monitoring device to record the identity of the students participating in the road driving course and the class. Time, cumulative time, cumulative kilometers and driving route, what a hassle."
Gao Xiaodong said with a smile: "I want you to be my driver in the future, learn to drive quickly."
Xiao Le said: "Monkey will be your driver, he doesn't work at Gasfoot anymore?"
Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "I said, I can still work there for the rest of my life."
Monkey also smiled meaningfully, and said, "Yes, there is no one who works for a lifetime."
Gao Xiaodong changed the subject, and said, "Next week I will go to Lisbon to play Benfica. No matter the outcome, I must kill Yang Fan. Monkey, you go too."
The monkey said with a smile: "I will definitely go to help the slaughterer."
Xiao Le said: "Does Yang Fan have a chance to enter the squad? I think he played a warm-up match with the first team during the Christmas holiday."
Monkey said: "It's no use, I guess next season will be rented out like Fatty."
Xiao Le said: "It's not bad to rent out, but the fat man just played out."
Gao Xiaodong wanted to say something but stopped, thinking, I didn't type it because of the lease, but I was talking about whether I could type it or not.
The three of them were talking when the doorbell rang. When they opened the door, it turned out that it was Gao Xiaodong's manager Mendes.
Since signing the brokerage contract with Gao Xiaodong, Mendes only met Gao Xiaodong twice, and the rest were on the phone, which made Gao Xiaodong wonder if he was with the wrong person. My manager, could it be that he was abandoned from beginning to end?
"Mr. Mendez is here."
"Hi Mr. Mendez."
Both Gao Xiaodong and Xiao Le stood up to greet Mendes.
"well."
Mendes nodded gracefully at Xiao Le, and sat down on the sofa naturally, as if he came here often.
Xiao Le and Monkey went back to their own rooms knowingly, and left the living room for Gao Xiaodong to talk to Mendes.
Mendes looked around the living room and said with a smile: "It seems that your assistant is doing a good job, and the house is in good order."
Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "That employee of yours also contributed a lot."
Mendez smiled and said: "The monkey's performance is good, it is a talent to make, but the language is still a lot worse,
It is better to learn more foreign languages. "
"Ah... yes." Gao Xiaodong pondered what was wrong, as if there was something in the words.
But Mendes changed the subject and said: "Are you sure you won't go back to Porto during this winter break? Chairman Costa called me again yesterday and asked me to persuade you, plus some other things , I have to come."
Gao Xiaodong said in high spirits: "I definitely won't go back. I had a great time at Rexos. Now we lead Porto by 3 points."
Seeing Gao Xiaodong's triumphant look, Mendes said: "You are too optimistic about the future. There has never been a shortage of dark horses in the history of football. Why are they called dark horses and not white horses? Because there are too few dark horses that are slender and fruitful. The test is in the second half, the bench, injuries, familiarity with the opponent, these will be important tests for Rexos, if you want to become the Kaiserslautern of the Portuguese Super League, there is still a long way to go."
Gao Xiaodong said unconvinced: "It's already reached this level, so you have to try, how can you be reconciled if you don't try."
Mendes smiled and said, "It's not bad, I knew you thought so, but I want to remind you first, since you have made your choice, you have to persevere no matter how difficult it is, and don't give up halfway."
"Of course, I have to finish the appointment while crying, but..." Gao Xiaodong scratched his head and said, "Mr. Mendes, I always feel that your words today are a bit unpredictable."
"Really?" Mendes smiled and said lightly, "That's because you think too much, but I'm more than 20 years older than you, and I've also been a professional player. It's not wrong to listen to it."
Gao Xiaodong smiled and said, "I've been listening."
Mendes said: "If it's just about Chairman Costa's instructions, it's okay if I don't come. I know that you will definitely not go back, but there is one more thing that I must talk to you about."
Gao Xiaodong said in surprise, "I need you to go there personally, old man."
Mendes said solemnly: "Arsenal has taken a fancy to you, Wenger wants to take you there, what do you think?"
Arsenal! ? Wenger!
Gao Xiaodong was a little dizzy, these two names were too big, he was overwhelmed, and at the same time he was very pleasantly surprised, never thought that I would also be spotted by a wealthy family one day, it was Arsenal! Arsenal as famous as Manchester United! The real giants, the five major leagues, win a game with 3 points, and many, many cups.
Seeing Gao Xiaodong dizzy with a smirk on his face, Mendes said indifferently: "But Arsenal can only play for the youth team. Let's practice and see if we can enter the first team."
"What, youth team?"
Gao Xiaodong suddenly woke up. Damn, although the Premier League has accumulated 3 points in one game, there is no point in not being able to play. The most important thing is that the youth team is not a professional game at all. Those who cannot get system points have no system points. , Why should I improve, and I don't have the talent of Ronaldo and Messi, how can I make a face?
This wealthy family, I still can't afford it now.
Gao Xiaodong smiled and said: "Mr. Mendes, I can't afford to climb this Arsenal. I don't have the ability to go to Porto now. I think I should slowly practice in the small team of Rexos for half a season. Let's wait till the end of the season."
Mendes didn't expect Gao Xiaodong to calm down so quickly, he looked at Gao Xiaodong in surprise, and thought, this kid is really different.
Mendes didn't persuade much, and said: "It's best if you think like this, man, you have to do a job that matches your ability. It's true that your ability can't gain a foothold in Arsenal. It's also very difficult to play the main force in Porto. Since You are so clear-headed, so I am relieved, since you want to be the champion in Rexos, then remember my words, since you have chosen, you have to persevere no matter how difficult it is, and don’t give up halfway.”
After Mendes finished speaking, he drank a glass of water and left. After Mendes left, Gao Xiaodong sat in the living room and meditated blankly for more than ten minutes. (to be continued.).
