Chapter 79: The JZ Club


Jiang Shaoyu gained a lot in the SN Club. In addition to helping the national team find the consultant Zhu Hong who was good at guerrilla warfare and encounter battles, he also obtained the player information of major clubs written by Coach Zhu himself. In addition, Xia Li also became a pending ‘assaulter’ member in his notebook.

Zhu Hong’s philosophy was very close to Jiang Shaoyu’s one. Perfect players were extremely rare. The national team didn’t require every player to be an all-round talent. Partial players could perform miraculously in certain lineups.

For example, Hua Ran and Xia Li were typical partial talents. They were particularly outstanding in a certain aspect but their comprehensive strength wasn’t high.

Jiang Shaoyu’s selection concept from the beginning was that players didn’t need to ‘copy’ each other. They should have different characteristics. He would break the traditional national team’s ‘main player and substitute’ model. In this opinion, every player could become a main player and play a role in different lineups.

He would give every player a chance to play.

It would be unlike the previous competition where many players went abroad for a ‘three day trip’ and couldn’t even touch the computers in the competition venue.

It was exactly 5:30 when they finished watching the game. Zhu Hong took the initiative to invite everyone to dinner. “Our manager isn’t here and I will be the host. Do you want to go out to dinner?”

Jiang Shaoyu said, “No need. We have to hurry and go to the high-speed rail station. We will eat there.”

Zhu Hong looked at everyone in surprise. “Are you in such a hurry? Do you need to go back to the national team tonight?”

Qi Heng joked. “We aren’t returning to the national team. Coach Jiang has now turned on the ‘king patrol’ mode and is inspecting clubs. We are going to the next club. Oh, did anyone secretly report it to you?”

Zhu Hong shook his head. “I haven’t heard any news but I don’t communicate much with the coaches of other clubs.”

It seemed the only one who reported and received the tip off were the two ‘extremely clever’ coaches of the RED and FAD teams.

Jiang Shaoyu shook hands with Zhu Hong. “Leave your WeChat. I will talk to you about a tactical consultant once I finish my work here.”

Zhu Hong added Jiang Shaoyu as a friend. Jiang Shaoyu left the SN Club with everyone and directly went to the high-speed rail station. They had dinner casually near the station.

J City where the JZ team was located wasn’t far from the SN team. It only took one and a half hours by high-speed train.

On the way, Qi Heng continued to give Jiang Shaoyu information about the teams. “JZ’s current coach is Gu Xiao. Do you remember him?”

Jiang Shaoyu nodded. “Yes, Captain Gu. Did he stay directly in his old club as a coach after retiring?”

Qi Heng laughed. “Yes. Speaking of which, Old Gu was once interviewed and joked that the player he hated most was ACE’s Wing. After all, he played charger. Every time he rushed out, he was shot in the head by you and was going to die from anger.”

Jiang Shaoyu: “……”

JZ was a veteran team established in the first season of Gun King. Gu Xiao was also a veteran player who debuted in the S1 season.

By the time Jiang Shaoyu led ACE to play in the A-grade Pro League in S3, Gu Xiao was already a very popular star player. He was the number one charger of the league and the style of play was bloody and violent. The players who were swept into a hornet’s nest by him could circle the league when lining up.
