Chapter 29 The War with the Media
PS, continue to ask everyone for recommendation tickets on Monday! !
※※※
Before the match against Villarreal, Chang Sheng also took a look at the coach master system, because there was an achievement task in the last match, and he was full of expectations for this match.
As a result, when I opened it, I found that there was only one task in the task log, which was the "watershed between life and death", and this task had to continue until the end of the season.
Other than that, there are no other tasks.
Chang Sheng was a little disappointed.
When he was in the youth team, he already knew that sometimes the game is a task, but not every game has a task.
Chang Sheng didn't expect to get any ordinary tasks. Since he completed an achievement task, he is now particularly interested in the achievement task.
The rewards of achievement tasks are much better than ordinary tasks, and everyone likes to do achievement tasks. Although the achievement task is more difficult, is there any more difficult task than leading such a broken team to avoid relegation?
※※※
Although there is no achievement task, the game still has to be played.
The press conference before the game has become one of the focuses of the reporters.
Because there is always victory!
Although he only led the team to play one game, Chang Sheng has become a figure of media attention because of his completely different style from the current coach.
But this time, Chang Sheng once again showed everyone his unusual side...
He didn't even show up at the pre-match press conference!
He let assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez go!
Manuel Garcia sat on the stage of the press conference, looked at a group of stunned reporters below, and smiled bitterly in his heart.
Because no matter what, it's not his turn to appear here.
It was supposed to be something Chang Sheng did, but Chang Sheng refused to attend on the grounds that he didn't want to pay attention to those media. Then he found assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez. As a result, Gonzalez didn't say anything, and almost turned his face with everyone.
In the end, there was really no other way, and he was the only one who came.
It seems that in order to fear that he would also run away, Chang Sheng also said that if he does not go, then no one from Getafe will attend the pre-match press conference for this game.
No way, Manuel Garcia had no choice but to bite the bullet—he had never experienced such a scene before.
But to be honest... He was actually looking forward to this press conference. Although he was temporarily caught to cover the bag, at least he was able to get acquainted in front of so many media.
He carefully considered his words in his heart, hoping that his performance later would not be too bad...
Getafe club press officer Alberto García Cabrera looked at Manuel García with some surprise.
He didn't understand why it was neither head coach Chang Sheng nor assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez.
But it doesn't matter... Anyway, someone has to come out to face the reporter...
So he signaled for the press conference to begin and the reporters could start asking questions.
Manuel García takes his seat, ready to answer questions.
But the scene suddenly fell silent.
Because the reporters just looked at him, but none of them raised their hands.
※※※
When Manuel García showed up, the reporters were surprised, then outraged.
They came here to interview Chang Sheng, but they didn't expect Chang Sheng to come out at all, not only Chang Sheng, but also assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez. In the end, Chang Sheng even sent an ordinary coach to attend the pre-match press conference!
God knows who this person is! At the very least, it's definitely not an assistant coach, nor a head coach! Maybe it's a fitness coach or something!
This is simply...too deceiving!
As uncrowned kings, when did journalists receive such treatment?
In their view,
Chang Sheng casually sent a coach to deal with them, just looked down on them. Of course, they looked down on Chang Sheng at the beginning, so they naturally don't remember.
The uncrowned kings will definitely not be able to bear this kind of naked face-slapping.
Finally someone raised his hand.
※※※
Alberto Garcia breathed a sigh of relief, the silence just now was really embarrassing...
He quickly pointed to the reporter.
Manuel Garcia also sorted out the expressions on his face, trying to make his smile look more natural, and he even tested his ears slightly, as if he was listening.
But the reporter's first sentence made both Garcias stunned.
"Why isn't the head coach present at the press conference?"
Manuel Garcia froze for a moment, then said: "He is usually busy..."
"Then why isn't assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez in attendance?" the reporter pressed.
By this time, the fool knew what the reporter meant.
He looked down on the coach in front of him and thought he was not qualified to accept their interview on behalf of Getafe!
Manuel Garcia did not continue to explain, but said seriously: "I often said that I can represent him with full authority."
"You can?" the reporter asked back.
Alberto, the press officer next to him, couldn't stand it anymore, and he motioned for other reporters to ask questions.
But this time no one raised their hands.
The standing reporter, as if instructed, did not sit down, but said to Manuel García: "I often think you can represent him with full authority, but sorry, we only ask him questions." ...we interviewed the manager of the Getafe first team, not just any coach."
After the reporter finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the gate of the press conference hall.
Then someone among the silent reporters hesitated, and more people began to stand up, turn and go out.
In the end, I just left without a trace!
They didn't go away directly, they just stood in the corridor outside the door, and they used this method to demonstrate to Chang Sheng who was hiding and refused to come out to see them, hoping to put pressure on Chang Sheng and force him to come out and accept interview.
In the press conference hall, the two Garcias seemed unprepared for this sudden scene. They watched the reporters all leave, unable to even say a word to stay.
Then the two looked at each other.
※※※
"Rudy, why are you making such a bad face? I haven't seen you smile in over a week."
The team acclimatizes at their own, er, home stadium, the Alfonso Perez Stadium. Chang Sheng kept harassing Rudy Gonzalez on the sidelines.
Rudy didn't take a good look at him, and he snorted and turned his face away.
But Chang Sheng walked around to Rudy from the other side, and continued to say with concern: "You always have a sad face, and your life will be shortened, Rudy. And I don't want the players to be too nervous because of your expression... You know our opponents in this game are very strong, as coaches we should put on a confident smile and convey confidence to them... just like me, look!"
Chang Sheng grinned and showed two rows of neat and white teeth, but no matter how you look at this smile, it will make people feel "so fake!"
The bitch!
Rudy Gonzalez had veins popping out of his forehead.
He found that he had been fooled, since he made a bet with Chang Sheng, he had nothing to do with this bastard.
Because pride is not like giving Chang Sheng an excuse to prevent the team from being relegated and saying that it was because he did not cooperate with his work, which caused the team's combat effectiveness to drop... I didn't expect this bastard to make progress recently!
He gritted his teeth and said, "You know why..."
Chang Sheng was stunned for a moment, and then he patted his forehead suddenly: "Ah, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean it! I really didn't expect... Besides, who hasn't lost a game..."
Chang Sheng was indeed surprised. Mourinho also lost to Barcelona 0:5 in the first national derby in charge of Real Madrid, but he died without seeing him. This Rudy Gonzalez's psychological quality is really bad enough, no wonder he can't be the head coach... Other abilities can be discussed as a head coach, but the psychological quality must be good, otherwise he would have died countless times.
"Enough! Aren't you unwilling to be interviewed yourself!" Rudy Gonzalez really couldn't bear the fly buzzing around his ears.
"Me?" Chang Sheng pointed to himself, and then smiled: "I'm not afraid of them. I don't want to let them push their feet. I want to know that I don't ask them, I don't rely on them to be famous. So I I didn't go, lest those reporters think that I have something to ask of them, and they will be unscrupulous..."
He was talking, and suddenly stopped talking, frowning and looking behind Rudy Gonzalez.
Gonzalez noticed this too, so he turned around and saw Manuel García approaching with the club's press officer, Alberto García.
The expression on Alberto Garcia's face was still very upset.
"So fast?" Rudy Gonzalez was also a little surprised.
That's right, it's been less than ten minutes since Garcia went to the press conference, why did he come back?
It's over too soon, isn't it?
The two walked up to Chang Sheng and Rudy, and then Alberto Garcia said angrily: "Those guys are too much!"
Manuel Garcia smiled bitterly: "I can't, Chang, you have to go..."
"What's the matter, Manuel?" Chang Sheng asked.
"Reporters say they only interview you, so..."
Alberto took over the conversation: "The group of reporters bullied Manuel! When they saw that Manuel was at the press conference, they all got up and left!"
Chang Sheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then his expression changed instantly, becoming very, very ugly...
"They said they only interviewed you, not any coach..." Garcia was still talking about everything that happened at the press conference.
Chang Sheng already clenched his fists.
He looked at Manuel Garcia with a somewhat embarrassed expression, knowing that this incident was a blow to this honest coach. It's like being slapped face to face! If the story got out--and no doubt it would--Manuel García would be a laughingstock in this circle.
He went to the press conference, and those damn reporters dared to get up and leave the venue, what a disdain and insult!
But he did put Manuel García in for an interview, so it's fair to say he caused it...
He originally expressed his attitude to the reporters-he did not want to accept any interviews with this group of ridiculed media, warning them to restrain themselves.
Unexpectedly, this group of people took their anger out on the innocent Manuel Garcia.
Oh shit!
Chang Sheng realized that he really overestimated the bottom line of those media reporters!
Even Rudy Gonzalez was very upset after reacting: "What kind of attitude are those reporters?! Isn't Manuel our Getafe coach?"
At this moment, Rudy Gonzalez rediscovered his collective sense of honor as the coach of Getafe. Manuel Garcia is a well-known good man who does not offend anyone and is friendly to everyone. Anyone can get along well with him. But even such a person was insulted for no reason by reporters, and he couldn't stand it anymore.
Chang Sheng asked in a deep voice: "You said that group of reporters are still outside the press conference hall?"
Alberto Garcia nodded: "They are demonstrating!" He was also very upset.
When journalists insult Manuel Garcia, they insult Getafe. One prospers all, one loses all.
Chang Sheng nodded: "Very well, let those sluts stand at the door! Alberto, go, tell those people for me—from now until the end of the season, our Getafe coaching staff will no longer Accept any form of interview from any media! The team's regular press conference every Tuesday will also be cancelled!"
He looked to Rudy Gonzalez beside him.
Rudy also nodded in agreement: "Since those bastards want to declare war, let's fight them!"
Because he lost the game and was ridiculed by the media, Rudy Gonzalez was also very upset to see these media.
The two finally reached a consensus on this issue.
Only Manuel Garcia was frightened. He didn't mind being insulted, but if he did this, wouldn't he offend all the media? Do you still want to see good things in the media? For the team, the media is the main group that exerts pressure and influence. Wouldn't that push Getafe to a dead end?
He intends to persuade Chang Sheng not to mess up the relationship for himself and the entire press. You must know that public opinion is a sharp sword, killing people invisible, offend no one and don't offend these people who play with pens...
But Chang Sheng was very stubborn, he shook his head: "I have to apologize to you, Manuel, I caused you to suffer such a great shame! Now I want to help you get it back! I want them to come back and interview honestly You, or get the hell out of the press conference room at the Alfonso Perez stadium forever!"
Alberto shouted from the side: "It has to be like this! Our Getafe is not a soft persimmon that people can squeeze casually!" As a press officer, he was also very angry at the scene he saw just now. The reporters left as soon as they said it in front of their faces. What did they think of themselves as a news officer? air!
If you don't give them some seriousness, do they really think that they can be so unscrupulous?
Manuel Garcia saw that everyone was so angry, and knew that the matter was irreversible. He could only sigh helplessly.
But deep down in his heart, he was a little moved... so many colleagues are willing to fight against the powerful media for themselves, it feels so good to have someone standing behind him and supporting him!
I was really moved, and I heard Chang Sheng ask Alberto Garcia: "Which media is the first guy to go out?"
"I know that guy. His name is Javi Rodriguez Martinez. He's a reporter for the newspaper Aspen."
"Very well, if he is not allowed to enter the press room of the Alfonso Perez stadium in the future, it will be fine?"
Alberto nodded: "As long as I am the press officer of this club for a day, it will be fine!"
Chang Sheng slapped his hands: "Okay, let's block him! Indefinitely! If you don't deal with them, do those bitches really think they are some kind of shit 'uncrowned kings'?"
