Chapter 42 Unspoken Rules
Without everyone's attention, Xiaoxia gradually relaxed.
At the beginning, her answer to Gao Yuan’s question was just a few concise words, and gradually she began to open her heart.
It turned out that Xiaoxia came here for part-time jobs on the first day.
Her family is not in good condition, and her parents are laid off workers, making a living by setting up stalls on the street selling pancakes and fruits. Xiaoxia is the eldest daughter of the family, and she has younger brothers and sisters. In order not to add burden to the family, Xiaoxia, who had good academic performance, did not go to the key middle school she had already been admitted to after graduating from junior high school, but went to the district sports school where she recruited her for free due to her talent in football.
The sports school originally had a well-known women's football team in the province. After Xiaoxia joined the team, she quickly became the main player. She has won many outstanding results in domestic youth competitions in the province.
But unfortunately, due to the social environment's indifference to women's football team, the sports school women's football team, like most domestic women's football teams, encountered a survival crisis. In the end, due to lack of funds and attention, this strong women's football team was disbanded, and Xiaoxia also left the sports school and entered society.
Xiaoxia is now working as a salesperson in a supermarket. Her meager income also needs to subsidize her family income to support her younger brothers and sisters to go to school, and she lives a tight life.
A sister who worked with her in the supermarket was working night shifts in the Zunhuang Shengshi and earned a lot. Seeing that her life was not easy, she brought her to work part-time.
"You have such a high level, why haven't you entered the women's football professional team?" Gao Yuan asked in confusion.
Although the overall environment is not good and the income of the women's football professional team is not high, it is always a stable and promising job. With the CA and PA she showed, it should be no problem to join the national youth team.
"How do you know what level I am?" Xiaoxia was a little surprised.
Uh... this is really hard to explain. You can't say that you know how to look at the qi!
There was no way, Gao Yuan could only answer in a vague way: "I feel! The feeling you give me is very extraordinary!"
A red cloud flew on Xiaoxia's dark face and her head lowered again.
Damn, I was misunderstood! I didn’t mean that! But I couldn’t explain it, and the explanation became a cover-up at this time. Wouldn’t it become darker and darker the more I described it?!
The atmosphere was once very awkward.
After a while, Xiaoxia said quietly: "I don't have money to give gifts."
"Um?"
"The coaches of professional teams choose people, and they all have clear prices. Those who play well get 30,000, while those who play well get 100,000, and those who don't know how to play well get 200,000. I don't have money to give gifts, so I haven't been selected for several times when I play professional teams choose people."
Gao Yuan was shocked. Just because he was just 30,000 yuan, a genius was buried?! This is too dark!
Gao Yuanxin asked unwillingly: "It's not that every coach charges money, right? Is there anyone who doesn't charge money? Are those big clubs the same?"
Xiaoxia smiled miserably, "You may not know the living environment of the women's football team. No one pays attention to it or invests. Even professional clubs are treated averagely.
Those who come to select people are assistant coaches in the echelon or reserve team. They themselves have very little salary. Relying on selecting people to generate income is almost an open secret in the circle!
Of course, there must be some coaches who are honest and honest, but if you don’t have money to give gifts, the sports school will not release people quickly, and set a lot of obstacles for you during transfers.
In the football circle, it is harder to raise someone than to reach the sky, but it is too easy to lose someone!”
Gao Yuan was dumbfounded by hearing this.
Compared with professionally trained athletes like Xiaoxia, her understanding of professional football is too superficial.
He just worked in a small club that is too amateur, and in a strict sense, he could hardly enter the football circle. In the past, he thought that Lao Wang, who was greedy for money, was just an exception, but he did not expect that the entire industry had unspoken rules.
It turns out that football is not only passion and glory on the surface, but also hidden behind it endless cruelty and darkness.
"You have such a good talent, you shouldn't give up! If you keep playing, you will definitely have a bright future!" Gao Yuan advised.
"Hehe" Xiaoxia smiled, not lowering her head as shyly as before, but raised her head and looked directly at Gao Yuan's gaze, but her big eyes were filled with helplessness and desolation.
"Football is just a hobby for me. My current task is to find a way to live the life in front of me."
Gao Yuan was speechless. He really had nothing to say. Everyone's life is different. Everyone's perceptions and choices about life are irreplaceable to others.
Most of the time, words like "Don't give up" are no essentially different from a bowl of toxic chicken soup for the soul. Because life is different, you know the cold and warmth.
Gao Yuan was shrouded in deep sense of powerlessness, and his heart was filled with regret and sorrow. Pity was for the talented girl in front of him; sorrow was for the entire Chinese football.
Because there is still a final to play tomorrow, everyone is not crazy about it.
When Gao Yuan left, Xiaoxia followed behind him, looking timid and silenced.
"What's up?"
"You...when will you play tomorrow? Can I go and watch it?"
The next day, the FA Cup qualifiers and the finals of the Shandong East Division will be held at the Taishan Football Training Base.
This time, Gao Yuan finally boarded the team's bus.
His identity is now the team's chief assistant coach, and he is no longer an insignificant and dispensable little role.
As soon as I got into the car, I saw Lao Wang leaning against two panda-like dark circles, with bruises on his forehead that he had fallen yesterday, and was leaning on the seat with a tired look on his face.
But as soon as he saw Gao Yuan get in the car, Lao Wang immediately came back alive and became extremely excited. The enemies were extremely jealous when they met. They jumped up and rushed over with their teeth and claws.
Gao Yuan was prepared, so he said something lightly in Lao Wang's ear, which immediately made him calm down.
"Lao Wang, when will you pay me back the 6,000 yuan you owe me every month?"
Lao Wang spread his body in a sluggish manner on the seat, looking desperate.
Damn, how did this kid know about deducting his salary? The salary for several months is tens of thousands of yuan, and it hurts to think about it!
Also, will he know that he secretly deducted the training allowances of the team members? Compared with this money comparison, Gao Yuan’s little money is worth it. It will only be obtained if he is discovered.
What should I do...
Gao Yuan sat beside Lao Wang honestly and unceremoniously, and quietly leaned into his ear and said, "Lao Wang, I can ignore the money for the time being. Let's continue to keep the water from overflowing the river. OK?"
"What do you want to do?" Lao Wang looked alert.
"I'll command this game!"
Lao Wang's face changed, and in the end he just nodded in a bare state, still looking desperate.
What else can I say? The handle is all in the other party's hands, and I don't know how much detail the other party has mastered me! I am in the light and the enemy is in the dark, how can I play this!
