Ji Leng and Ji Ming stayed at Chang Sheng's home for more than a week. After completing some formalities and housing at Lazio Club, they left Rome and returned to their home in Shanghai.
This time they went back mainly to do two things. One was of course Ji Leng's resignation, and the other was Ji Ming's withdrawal from school.
Ji Leng's colleagues were surprised that Ji Leng suddenly resigned after doing a good job.
Because of Ji Leng's outstanding performance in covering Chang Sheng and Valencia, he was promoted and received a salary increase. In the eyes of his colleagues, Ji Leng's future is bright. As long as he continues to work, he might be able to take the position of deputy editor.
?
That's middle management.
Completely different from the front-line reporter who ran errands before.
But Ji Lieng resigned!
No one knew exactly why he resigned, but they vaguely heard that he was going abroad.
Since you want to go abroad, it must be a better job, right?
This is considered a promotion...
colleagues thought jealously.
Then they watched with complicated eyes as Ji Leng left the office after completing the resignation procedures.
At the same time, the boss may not ask why Ji Leng resigned, but the school cannot but ask Ji Ming's parents why they expelled him from school.
Ji Leng, who is low-key and dislikes publicity, did not tell anyone that he asked his son to drop out of school because he wanted to play football in Italy.
I just told the school that I was moving and leaving Shanghai to go back to my hometown, so I had to drop my son out of school.
His wife had also known about Ji Leng's arrangement for a long time, and she had no objection.
But since her husband resigned, it is definitely impossible for her to resign.
It's possible that her income as a teacher is the family's biggest source of income...
As a result, she must endure a long separation from her husband.
Fortunately, she is a teacher and has three months of paid leave every year, so the family can be reunited by then.
But the emotion of separation is always indispensable...
A wife can't let go of her children, and a husband can't let go of his wife.
Only the child is carefree, the novelty has not worn off yet, and he has no thought at all about what if he gets homesick for his mother in Rome, a place he is not familiar with.
The only words in his mind now were Uncle Chang Sheng's words.
Dreams are flowers blooming on cliffs, blooming only for the brave!
He wants to pluck this flower, no matter how high the price he has to pay and how many difficulties and obstacles he has to go through!
※※※
The story of Ji Leng and Ji Ming pursuing their dreams comes to an end here.
Winning teams are making strides in the league and Champions League.
In the league, Lazio has 11 wins, two draws and zero losses, with 35 points, leading Inter Milan by three points and ranking first in the league.
And their situation in the Champions League is also very good.
After defeating Lyon 4:1 at home, Lazio not only qualified for the group ahead of schedule, but also qualified for first place in the group ahead of schedule.
After five rounds in the group stage, Lazio won four and drew one, with 13 points.
Lyon has two wins, two draws and one loss, with eight points, ranking second.
Liverpool has two wins, one draw and two losses, ranking third with seven points.
Debrecen, a little-known team, has not won a single game, lost all games, and accumulated zero points. It has been eliminated early.
With the final round of the group stage left, Lazio is five points ahead of second-placed Lyon and is definitely first in the group.
After qualifying first in the group ahead of schedule, Lazio's focus of preparations shifted from the Champions League to the league.
This is actually Chang Sheng’s consistent style in strategy.
When playing in the Champions League, you must work hard from the beginning, try your best to qualify early, and qualify as the first in the group in advance.
Although this will be more difficult after the league starts, because at the same time, the results of the league must be guaranteed.
But the benefits are obvious.
After qualifying early, Lazio can temporarily give up the remaining games of the Champions League group stage and shift its focus to the league. In this way, the performance in the league will be upgraded, the league results will also rise, and it can lead the second place in the league.
This way, when the Champions League knockout rounds resume in February next year, Lazio is already in a relatively advantageous position in the league, and they can lead the second place by more than one point.
In this way, the winning team can temporarily strategically abandon the league and choose to assist in the Champions League.
At the very least, it is guaranteed to pass the first knockout round of the Champions League and advance to the quarterfinals.
This gives the team more room for maneuver.
And there is no need to worry about going strong at the beginning of the season, and there is no need to worry about physical problems. Because the new season has just begun, the team's physical fitness is definitely not a problem at all, and it can withstand the intensity of fighting on both fronts with all its strength.
When the winter break is approaching and the team's physical fitness drops to a critical point, the team no longer needs to fight on two fronts.
After resting and preparing for the winter break, the team's physical fitness has recovered at the beginning of the second half of the season and can once again cope with the challenges on both fronts...
Having more than ten days of winter break is like having a halftime break, which is very important for a winning team.
I think the winning tactics consume a lot of physical energy. Although Lazio's physical reserves are better than other teams, they consume them faster than other teams.
It's nice to have a winter break to relax.
Of course, playing to the end of the season is basically a matter of willpower. The physical fitness accumulated during the winter break has been exhausted in the two-line battle of the league and the Champions League. Can we still achieve breakthroughs in both lines?
Then it depends on the will.
To put it bluntly, the strategy of always winning is a very offensive strategy, quite similar to the style of George Patton, the famous madman general in World War II.
George Patton's men were known for their ability to conquer and fight at home. In the process of liberating Italy, Patton's mistakes gave full play to their characteristics of being fast and daring to charge and fight.
Like Chang Sheng, Patton was a man who emphasized taking the lead in attacking on the battlefield.
He once said: "I don't want to hear nonsense like 'my troops are defending their positions'! Let the Germans defend, we only need to attack!"
Some people also criticized him for putting the lives of soldiers in danger and urging them to continue attacking in order to achieve great success.
Patton's explanation for this was: "Only by attacking can the war end as soon as possible. Only by ending the war as soon as possible can more deaths be prevented."
This view is quite similar to the strategic thinking of everlasting victory.
Attack and attack, use offense to eliminate the enemy's vitality, so that the opponent quickly gives up. This can reduce the resistance the team encounters in the game, and at the same time, it can effectively reduce the possibility of the team being injured in the game and slow down the physical decline of the team.
Consumption.
Therefore, the tactical strategy that seems to consume physical energy is actually aimed at ensuring physical fitness.
Football seems to be very passionate, but it serves a rather conservative goal.
Violent offense is for easier defense.
This is the strategy of always winning, this is the strategy of always winning.
※※※
In the fourteenth round of the league, Lazio faced Bologna at home. The win in this game caused many players who participated in the previous Champions League game to rest.
In the end, Lazio defeated Bologna 2:1.
The reason why most of the main players rested in this game is because there is an important game next, which is the Rome derby.
Immediately after the derby is the Champions League group stage match against Liverpool.
Chang Sheng chose to give up the Liverpool game and focus on the Rome derby.
Although, since Chang Shen became the head coach of Lazio, Roma has not defeated Lazio yet.
Lazio's advantage over Roma should be huge.
But Chang Sheng never dared to take it lightly.
What is a local derby?
A local derby is a special game that cannot be measured by common sense.
Whatever happens in such a game is normal.
What if one day Roma explodes and suddenly destroys Lazio, and when they lose the game, there will be no place to cry!
Chang Sheng would never let such a situation happen, so he would nip any such possibility in swaddling clothes from the very beginning.
Not only did he think so, he also did it.
And he asked the whole team to want to do this.
Before the local derby against Roma, Chang Sheng said to his players in the dressing room of the Stadio Olimpico.
"To deal with a strong enemy, no matter how many times you have defeated them before, it is meaningless in front of this game. I never pay attention to those historical battle results, only the media uses them to make mysteries. Historical battle results will not help us win now.
The reason why the historical battle record of this game is the historical battle record is because it has happened before, belongs to the past, and has nothing to do with the present. Now you must correct your mentality. Every derby is a brand new battle.
We should welcome this kind of game with a new mood, instead of always thinking about how many goals we have won against them..."
"It stands to reason that you all have the experience of participating in many local derbies, but I still have to say it. Because for me, this game is completely new, so I have to say it to you with an attitude that I have never played before.
These 'old clichés'. Hope you don't disappoint me, guys."
Chang Sheng kept saying "This is brand new", as if he was really a brand new person and a brand new game.
But this kind of brainwashing is quite useful.
After so many years of unremitting emphasis on winning, Lazio players have become accustomed to playing every Roma derby as a new first game.
This is also the main reason why Roma is always unable to defeat Lazio in the same city derby - the competition of team strength in the same city derby is not very important.
What's more important is the mentality...
In terms of mentality, Lazio, who treats every local derby as the first local derby and fights for it, is definitely better than Roma who only fights for revenge.
So every time there is a derby in the same city, everyone can see through the TV broadcast that the Roma players have angry faces, while the Lazio players only have anger in their eyes.
The Lazio players' faces were full of expectations, with only the fire of fighting spirit in their eyes.
Too many negative emotions will affect Roma's performance.
This is the desire for revenge that has been accumulated over time... If a master thinks too much about a duel, he will only die faster.
Then, players from both sides stepped onto the same stadium with different moods.
But what awaits them is destined to be different fates... (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
