Chapter 25 The Chinese who conquered the forest(1/2)

When Donnn claimed in his column that Nottingham Forest’s goal this season is the European Champions League champion, no one was surprised, but no one agreed, and most people thought it was just a self-hype and botched performance by the arrogant Donnn.

Even Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea, and Liverpool dare not publicly claim that their goal this season is the European Champions League champion, and they say that this trophy that represents the highest level of European club events seems to be their own thing.

So, although no one was surprised by this, many people think that this arrogant declaration is worthless.

"Tony Done likes to be the focus of everyone's attention. He feels uncomfortable if he doesn't make any noise every once in a while.

I have a deep understanding of this, but if you take every move of him seriously, you will definitely go crazy - because you don't know what he wants to do.

"The Daily Telegraph is a staunch "anti-Tang En element". His words in his column can very well represent some people's views on Tang En.

But when the first round of the league ended, everyone who still saw this was silent. Because in the face of Nottingham Forest's overwhelming victory, they didn't know what to say to not embarrass themselves.

Although these people didn't want to see Tang En appear on the TV screen with a smug smile, in the face of the facts, the language was very pale...

The Chinese media did not care about the grudges between Donn and the English media. What made them ecstatic was that they found an Eastern hole in the coach's seat in Nottingham Forest in this game.

Just when many Chinese were still speculating that this Oriental was Chinese, Korean or Japanese, the Sports Weekly where Tang Jing worked was the first to disclose detailed information about this person. He was able to appear in Piaotianwen and make friends with him and said that although it sounds fantastic, it actually happened, and those people could not believe it.

Isn't Nottingham Forest's victory over Wigan Athletics for granted? So everyone pays more attention to the Chinese who appears in the coaching seat of the Premier League team.

In these days, it is not uncommon for Chinese players to appear in European teams and there is no hype value. However, Chinese coaches can appear in foreign teams, which makes many Chinese people feel incredible.

In the minds of many Chinese fans, perhaps one or two Chinese players can become excellent players after they are well trained, but there will definitely be no high-quality talents among Chinese coaches.

Going to a foreign club as a coach? It would be great if you won’t mislead your children!

It is precisely because of this idea that the appearance of Tang in China caused a sensation.

It seemed as if he had emerged from nowhere and fell from the sky. Even if he had studied Chinese football in depth, no matter how well he understood, he had never heard of such a number of Chinese coaches. Not to mention understanding Tang’s past, coaching resume, etc.

For a long time, the report about Tang written by Tang Jing in the Sports Weekly became the only way for everyone to understand this mysterious coach.

Many people were shocked by the information disclosed in this report - they were able to meet Nottingham Forest head coach Tony Donne, who was the second in the Premier League, and no matter how you look at it, they only appear in the yy novel...

So many "no responsibility conjecture" about why Tang appeared on the Nottingham Forest.

Some people think that Tang must be the brother-in-law of the boss of a large domestic company. Then the company paid for sponsorship to make Tang enjoy it, but in fact there was no real talent at all.

This is the most supportive conjecture.

Some people think that Tang is a master hidden among the people. The report does not mean that Tang En had traveled to China twice. Then it would be normal to know Tang.

What's more, Chinese football is so trash. Is it worth showing off what he has coaching experience in Chinese football? Maybe after Tang Zhen coaches in China, Tang En doesn't want it.

Others think that Tang En is the most unique coach in England. He is confused about anything he does, so even if Tang doesn’t have any ability, it is normal for him to choose Tang as an assistant coach - because he doesn’t do normal things at all.

The last view is from a business perspective, which believes that Nottingham Forest intends to open up the Chinese market after buying Sun Jihai.

So I found such a Chinese coach... This is a bit nonsense. Who would buy Nottingham Forest things for a Chinese coach? Will I come up with a special coach suit?

In short, no matter how these people "didn't have any responsibility", Tang is indeed a member of the Nottingham Forest coaching staff.

So in order to figure out the story behind this - other media don't want to chew leftover steamed buns from Sports Weekly all day long - countless Chinese media flocked to the location of Nottingham Forest Club.

"Tsk tsk." Tang En shook his head and smacked his lips in the training ground, "Even if Sun came, he hadn't seen so many reporters with black hair and yellow skin. Tang, you are so charming! I'm a little jealous..."

The rest of the coaching staff laughed.

Tang certainly knew that Tang En was joking, so he just smiled slightly and didn't say anything.

"It's not okay to let these people wander outside the training ground all day long. It really affects our training... Take the time to hold a special press conference, Tang. I'll deal with them."

This time Tang nodded.

He also felt that it was not good to be regarded as a monkey like this - this metaphor is very vivid. They were in the training ground surrounded by barbed wire, just like monkeys in an iron cage, being looked at by the tourists outside with curious eyes, which was not pleasant.

Tang En understands the great enthusiasm of the Chinese media for Tang because he was once a Chinese. Today, when Chinese football is weak, a hero is needed to boost morale. Although he doesn’t know whether Tang is a hero now, in the eyes of the Chinese media.

It doesn't prevent them from promoting it as a hero - entering England alone. With their real talents and knowledge, they impressed the arrogant and famous coach Tony Tang En, and summoned him to the tent. The world superstar is very awesome.

So what? We have Coach Tang who specializes in managing these awesome superstars!

Tang En wiped the corners of his eyes. This is really a touching story...

So every Chinese reporter who hopes to interview Tangdi has received such an invitation:

Nottingham Forest Club sincerely invites all journalists from all over the country to attend a press conference held at the city stadium at 3:30 tomorrow afternoon.

Tang Jing was naturally also invited. She held this invitation and looked at the venue, but her eyes were not on Tang, but Tony Tang.

Tony, who appeared on the Piaotianwen network like a legend, and then flew to China to talk twice before deciding to summon him to Nottingham Forest as coach. Coach Tang En is probably more worthy of research... What is this person's mind thinking all day long? Do you try every means to surprise the outside world by his decision? If this is the case, look at the reaction outside now.

He succeeded.

Not only Chinese media, but also British media have begun to pay attention

There are many foreigners around her now. However, Tang Jing firmly believes that these people are not coming for Tang, but for Tony Tang En, who brought Tang into the Premier League.

Otherwise, Tang had been a youth team coach for the Forest team for two years before, so why didn’t he see the British media expressing his attention?

No matter how much the Chinese media make a fuss, these British guys are not interested in a Chinese coach at all. They only care about their own country, their people and football, and even other football powerhouses in the European continent, the British media don't care much about it.

English football, which is more peaceful in Europe, fantasizes about being the world's number one in its own world.

After staying in the UK for so many years, Tang Jing has long understood what kind of virtues of British football, and her mentality has gone from her initial admiration for British football to her current cold-eyed observation.

The loss in the World Cup and the loss in the European Cup are definitely not just the players' bad condition and the coach's level is not that simple enough. Many times, they have something in common with Chinese football...

"I'll tell you, Tang. The place you wear is a little more formal then, don't wear me a bloated sportswear and go... This outfit is not good." At home, in order to prepare for the next day's press conference, Tang En was forcing Tang to try on his clothes.

Now he has used all the methods that Xianya used to "torture" him.

He had to admit that it was very fulfilling to make such a living person call him around according to his own requirements...

"You have to beat the tie?" Tang held a dark red tie in his hand.

"I hope to fight."

"It's not like to see Her Majesty the Queen..."

"It's almost the same!" Tang En said sternly, "You will not only face journalists around the world as an assistant coach of the Forest Team tomorrow, but also as a Chinese. Your every word and deed, dressing and dressing represent 'China'.

If you don’t look good, you can make people laugh at it if you dress too badly! They will look down on China.

Will you think, ‘Does the Chinese wear clothes like this?’ You have to know that in Western countries, there are still many people who know nothing about China. They think that the Chinese still live in the 1950s and 1960s, and even the Qing Dynasty... So you have an obligation to let those people see what the Chinese are like today!” He changed the words of what Xianya taught himself and instilled into Tang.

How did Shania tell Tang En: "...You are the head coach of Nottingham Forest. No matter where you go, everyone will look at you and think about you like this. Your dress, every word and action represents Nottingham Forest Club.

If you don't look good, if your dress is too bad, it will make people laugh at the club behind you. They will say: 'Look.

The head coach of Nottingham Forest is like a hillbilly’, they won’t say ‘Tony Don is a hillbilly’…”

Tang En heard what expressions he had at the beginning. Now Tang was just like that - completely stunned. They had never thought of so many complicated things before, but now they were reminded and then thought about it carefully. It seemed that this was the case...

Although everyone likes to call themselves "I am me and I don't live for anyone", this sounds very independent and awesome.

But in fact? People are group creatures and must live in various groups, and there must be something representative behind each person.

"You are so concerned about China's image..." Tang said after a while.

"No matter how I say I am also a Chinese." Tang En was very proud. "Everyone is responsible for maintaining the image of his motherland!"

Tang snorted from his nose. Put on his tie. "I suddenly thought of a question. Now you are getting closer and closer to China. If one day the Chinese Football Association invites you to coach the Chinese national team, will you go?"

"Of course not!"

"You just refuse... Didn't you say you want to maintain the image of the motherland?"

"Chinese football cannot involve Chinese image. If you want to talk about sports image, table tennis, badminton, gymnastics, etc., Chinese football is already complicated enough, let it be simpler.

Besides, I don’t have to pay for my career and money to do such a painful thing.” Tang En sat on the sofa, crossing his legs. He was completely different from his righteous and righteous image just now.

Tang said this and said nothing. It must be admitted that the person with a British appearance in front of him knows more about Chinese football than himself, and has a deep impression of the problems of Chinese football.

"How is this outfit?" Tang asked after putting on the suit.

Tang En looked at it carefully for a while, but in fact he didn't understand. This was just a gesture... all experts are like this.

The attitude must be blurred, which is a deep expression in the eyes of outsiders; the speaking speed must be slow, which is a manifestation of careful words and sentences in the eyes of outsiders. People who speak fast and immediately show their attitude are frivolous and incompetent in the eyes of others.

After all, "a bottle of water is not full, half a bottle of water is swaying"...

After pretending to look at it for a long time, Tang En finally nodded: "It's OK!"

In fact, compared with the previous one, the sports jacket was changed to a suit, the round-neck T-shirt was changed to a white shirt, and then a tie was added.

"Perform better tomorrow, stop being so silent." Tang En gave his roommate a thumbs up.

On this day, everyone is not concerned about Forest team preparing for the next round of the league, but a press conference held after 3:30 pm.

The first Chinese assistant coach to land in the Premier League... Everyone wants to know the story behind this.

After the prescribed time came, Tang En appeared in front of the reporters in formal outfit.

"If you have any questions, please ask them one by one. Our time is limited, and I don't think you are willing to waste your precious time on maintaining order, right? Let's start." After a brief explanation, Tang En announced the beginning of the press conference.

Then the reporters raised their hands to ask questions, and then Tang En and Tang answered them. Some questions were targeted at Tang, and Tang En would occasionally interrupt.

The reporters are interested in the following points:

First, Tang En and Tang, a British man. How did a Chinese man know and become familiar with him.

Of course, Tang En and Tang couldn't say that they had exchanged bodies, so they got to know each other so much. So Tang En moved out of the Internet again and said that whether the reporters believed it or not, this was their unified answer.
To be continued...
