Almighty Athlete Chapter 429: The reason

Cadell Evans was finally taken away by his teammates, and Zhang Guan still did not remember when he guilty of this cardell Evans.

Under the current status of Zhang Guan, unless there is really a big contradiction, I will not find Zhang Guan in such public situations. What's more, Cardel Evans is also a veteran driver who has become famous for many years, and he is also quite famous in road cycling. He is not a stunned teenager about 20 years old. He must do things through his brain. How come there is no reason for trouble?

"Are there any misunderstandings?" Zhang Guan thought it would be good to ask.

At this moment, Gilbert of the Belgian Lotto team came over and Zhang Guan immediately won.

Philipp Gilbert is the head of the Belgian Lotto team. He is 28 years old this year, the golden age of a confident car player. Now Zhang Guan will wear the Belgian Lotto team uniform to participate in the ride of the first stage of the Tour de France, and Gilbert is also considered a temporary teammate.

"Philip, how much do you know about Cardel Evans?" Zhang Guan asked.

"How did you mention him." Gilbert heard Evans' name with a strange reaction, and then he introduced: "Evens is an Australian, a mountain biker, and has obtained multiple mountain bikes. The World Cup champion and later switched to road racing, the results were also very good. He won the eighth place in Tour de France in 2005, fourth place in 2006, and was the runner-up in Tour de France in 2007 and 2008. In 2009 he won the World Championship of road cycling The champion of the tournament is in perfect condition now, and it is a popular candidate for this Tour de France champion! Why, do you know him?"

Zhang Guan shook his head: "I don't know, but he seems to have some opinions on me. But I can't remember when he was blamed."

Zhang Guan told Gilbert what happened just now.

"It turns out like this!" Gilbert smiled slightly: "You didn't offend him, it was us who offended him."

"You guys?" Zhang Guan asked with some surprise.

"I am referring to our team." Gilbert explained: "Evens was the driver of our Belgian Lotto team last year, and he just switched to the American BMC racing team this year."

"Evans has a conflict with your team?" Zhang Guan asked immediately.

Gilber nodded characteristically: "Actually, the leader of our team was not me, but Evans. His two Tour de France runner-ups were won during our team. Evans' contract expired last year. The team is willing to renew his contract, but the price has been inconsistent. Evans asked for a salary increase. The team said that the salary increase can be, but it will not increase too much. The number that Evans wants is a bit large for the team. , So we ended up talking about it. Evans turned to the American BMC racing team."

"Did the American BMC racing team pay a higher price?" Zhang Guan asked with a smile.

"No, the price they gave was not the number Evans wanted." Gilbert shook his head, then said: "You know, the competition in cycling in Europe is fierce, although the intercontinental profession There will be 20 or 30 sponsors in the team, and more professional team sponsors, but the daily expenses of the team are also very large. In fact, the economic status of each team is not very generous, we can’t give it to the Belgian Lotto, No other team can give it."

"So Evans is because the Lotto team refuses to meet his salary increase, so he resented your team." Zhang Guan nodded slightly, then said: "But this has nothing to do with me? I though It’s wearing your team’s uniform, but not your team’s driver. I’m just a guest attending the event. If Evans complains, I can’t find me on my head? Your team has twenty or thirty drivers, forty or fifty. Staff, he could not deal with an outsider against me? This is a bit unreasonable."

"I think it's because of the 100,000 euros that were auctioned yesterday." Gilbert shrugged: "Evens should think that the team would rather spend 100,000 euros on you as a guest rather than give him Raise the salary, so he will resent you even with you. I'm sorry, I'm implicated in you."

Zhang Guan suddenly realized that it would make sense. When it comes to a question of dignity and face, it cannot be measured by sharing money.

Many big-name players value their face very much. For example, if an athlete with an annual salary of 10 million yuan is given an annual salary of 5 million yuan, it can even be regarded as an insult. The athlete will definitely be unhappy.

For example, Wade, the "Flash", who played for the Miami Heat for many years, originally planned to end his life in the Heat, but the Heat are only willing to give Wade a contract of 10 million a year, which anyone see Come insulting Wade. When faced with this kind of thing, even if there is no other team to open a contract, Wade will not sign, this is the dignity of the athletes. Wade eventually went to the Chicago Bulls for 47.5 million in 2 years, leaving the Miami Heat for more than ten years.

This should be the case with Evans now. He feels that the Belgian Lotto team would rather give money to Zhang Guan than raise his salary. He feels insulted. He even thinks that in the eyes of the Lotto team, The value of Zhang Guan is greater than that of his old veteran who has worked for many years, so he even complained about Zhang Guan.

And Evans is Australian, this country is also an anti-China pioneer, especially in sports fields, Australian athletes often discriminate against Chinese athletes. The Chinese people are more familiar with Houghton who swims. His behavior has even been "affirmed" by most Australian media. The situation in Australia is like this. It is not surprising that Evans talked about it with Zhang Guan.

"I am suffering from infallibility! But this Evans has to teach him a lesson. Doesn’t he say that the Chinese won’t win the Tour de France in a hundred years? What? Tomorrow I will let you know, the bicycle kingdom is not blown out!" Zhang Guan thought of this and found bicycle sports related skills in the system.

......

"Kadel, you are a little too much today." Burghardt said.

“I’m mad! Belgian Lotto is not without money, but they would rather throw the money at Zhang Guan, an unrelated person, rather than give me a salary increase! I still work for them for many years~ IndoMTL.com~ is not as important as a layman. This is an insult to my personality!" Evans said.

"Then you shouldn't trouble Zhang Guan! Zhang Guan is just a guest, and the 100,000 euros don't fall into the pockets of Zhang Guan, and ultimately donate to Africa to fight malaria." Borghat said Said.

"I just see that Chinese is uncomfortable!" Evans pouted and said, "Relax, that Chinese can't treat me like that."

"Not necessarily. The whole world knows that Zhang Guan is proficient in all kinds of sports, especially in sports, he has never lost it! And he is a Chinese, maybe he is really good at riding a bike, if it is Tomorrow's game, he gave you over, then you lose face!" Boghart said half-jokingly.

"Beyond me? You can really laugh!" Evans sneered. "Do you really think Chinese people ride bicycles very well? They ride bicycles because they are poor and cannot afford cars. That’s why I was forced to get on a bike! We are professional cyclists, participating in the Tour de France, the world’s highest level of cycling! Even if you give Zhang Guan two wheels, he can only eat farts behind me !No, he doesn’t even think about eating farts, I will be far ahead, he can’t even see my back!" (Unfinished.)
