Chapter 122 War of Words (1)
Zhang Yang scored consecutive goals, and everyone knew that he had just renewed his contract. Although he was not sure what his specific salary was, his salary increased significantly, so his teammates all asked Zhang Yang to treat him.
Now that you have money in your pocket, treating a guest is naturally not a big deal for Zhang Yang. He is not the kind of stingy person. He used to invite everyone to eat frozen dumplings before, because he just came to Marseille and had no money. Now that he has money, he naturally needs to be richer.[]
Zhang Yang immediately said that when he came back from Lyon, he would invite everyone to have a good meal.
Everyone shouted, why don’t you treat me now? You have to wait until you finish playing for Lyons? Zhang Yang smiled and said, “It’s better to celebrate if you win Lyons.”
When everyone heard this, they really meant it. After winning the leader Lyon team, they naturally felt very happy and laughed. They didn't know another meaning of Zhang Yang's words, because they didn't know the festival between Zhang Yang and Lyon team.
Lyon is the next round of the match between Marseille. Now Marseille ranks third in the league, and Lyon ranks first, which is naturally another collision between Mars and Earth.
On January 20, 2006, the entire Marseille team set off from Marseille to Lyon. This time they took Air France flight to the away game. The direct flight from Marseille to Lyon is 255 kilometers. It takes an hour to fly. If you take a bus, it will take several hours, which would be too much trouble.

Lyons is the capital of the Rhone Alps and the second largest city in France. It is said that the name of Lyons comes from a man named Long and a child born with a woman named Thorne.
Lyon is located at the intersection of the Long River and the Suin River. It has been a transportation fortress since ancient times. This city ties the main route from Paris to the Mediterranean coast, and can go east to Switzerland, Italy, and south to Spain. It has highways, electrified railways and inland waterways, so it is the center of the southeastern France transportation network.
Although the Lyon Club, headquartered in the city, took shape as early as the fall of 1917, it was not until 1950 that the Lyon Olympic Club was truly established. After its establishment, the team was in 1950.
In the 51st season, the team was promoted to Class A as champion, but one season later, the team returned to Class B. Since upgrading as champion again in 1954, Lyon has been the leader in the French FA Cup three times in 1964, 1967, and 1973 in nearly 30 years of history.
Entering the mid-1980s, the team fell into the Class B abyss again until 1988
The team returned to the A-level arena in the 1989 season, and the team also ushered in a new stage. In the late 1990s, with the arrival of head coach Santini, Brazilian striker Anderson and the emergence of rookie Govu, Lyon Lyon launched a strong impact on the league championship trophy. After winning the French League Cup in 2001, the team that has been strong in winning the league championship trophy in recent seasons has finally realized its wish to lift the league championship trophy and won the championship for four consecutive years.
Looking back, like Paris or Marseille, the Rhone Valley is the hometown of football. However, the most famous place is Saint-Etienne, not Lyon 60 kilometers away. From the perspective of football, until he won the league runner-up 10 years ago, Lyon was a suburb of Saint-Etienne. Before Oras took over Lyon, Lyon was almost nothing on the French football territory.
Lyon's magic ascension in 18 years, Chairman Oras made an indelible contribution. Compared with the century-old history of other Ligue 1 giants, Lyon, founded in 1950, was half a century late. If the current chairman Oras had not used 18 years to magically bring a Class B team to the semi-finals of the Champions League, the history of Lyon Club for half a century would have been a blank piece of paper.
In 1987, Olas, a businessman who was proud of his business in the information publishing industry, took over Lyon. In 1989, Lyon was promoted to Class A as a champion in Class B, and Domeneck, who was still young, became famous in one fell swoop. In 1991, Lyon scored in the League Cup. In 1995, Lyon won the second place in Ligue 1, which was also the best result in the club's history at that time. The then head coach Tigana made a leap forward with his personality and genius.
It is impossible not to mention the vision of Aulas choosing a head coach. Domeneck, Laconbe, Tigana, Santini and Legon are all very strong in personality. As head coaches, they were all unknown when they came to Lyon and were famous all over the world when they left. Santini won the first league championship for Lyon in 2002. That time, Lyon defeated Lance in the last round and finally surpassed his opponent to win the championship, which was no less than any suspense film. In the same year, Santini replaced Le Mail as the head coach of the French national team. Aulas sided with the opposition and chose Legon, who was frustrated at Rennes. He ushered in Lyon's most glorious three years: three league championships and two championship cup quarterfinals.
It can be said that there is only one secret in Lyon's growth, that is, their chairman Olas. Under his presidency, Lyon not only achieved outstanding results in the first team, but also established the best youth training camp in Ligue 1. In 1995 and 2000, Lyon won the national championship in the age group under the age group, and between 1993 and 2000, the national championship in the age group under the age group won four national championships. Among the 30 first team players, 10 players came from their own youth training camp, which is amazing. It is believed that he has been willing to lay the foundation for the club's great achievements in 18 years. Olas is a patient person. In addition to training camps, he pays more attention to club management.
The tentacles of the Lyon Club have been extended into various industries such as media, services and production. While expanding the brand effect, it is rare in the football industry with constant economic crisis. When you look at Lyon's balance sheet, it is not difficult to understand why the bold words of Olas that he said that he won the league championship and entered the Champions League were fulfilled one by one.

Before the champagne was finished after winning four consecutive championships last season, Lyon coach Legon proposed his resignation. Losing the young coach who led the team to three consecutive championships was Lyon's biggest loss this summer.
After failing to retain Regon, Chairman Olas contacted his old friend - former Liverpool coach Hollier, who coached Liverpool for five and a half years, which was well received. He not only trained a group of young talents such as Irving, Gerrard, Murphy, and Riser, and led the team to win five cup championships in one season, but he repeatedly failed in the league. The style of the game is more conservative, and his defensive counterattack style has always been criticized by fans and the media. In the French Ligue 1, which emphasizes more technical cooperation, Lyon is the unscrupulous boss, and is also a representative of this. In the European Champions League last season, they defeated the Bundesliga champion Bremen with a 11-2 win.
However, the league has been held for 21 rounds this season, and Lyon is far ahead in the league standings, which also shuts down those who were skeptical of Hollier before.
In fact, Zhang Yang is not unfamiliar with Lyon. When he first came to France, the first team he recommended was Lyon. He will never forget the contempt and insult he received from the Marseille assistant coach. For Zhang Yang, who will have to avenge his revenge, this game against Lyon is a revenge battle that does not require mobilization at all!
Zhang Yang is not unfamiliar with the Lyon team, and of course he is not unfamiliar with the city of Lyon, because the school he studied abroad at his own expense is an ordinary university in Lyon. Although he has only returned to school once or twice in the past six months, he has been taking time to read books recently and preparing to take an exam at the school.
Studying in France was a springboard for Zhang Yang to go abroad to find opportunities for football. He once thought about playing professional games and chose to drop out. However, this idea has changed now, and he suddenly wanted to complete his studies. After all, playing football cannot be played for the rest of his life, and he has to plan for the future. Haha, okay, to be honest, this kid just thinks that it would be quite awesome if he can get a bachelor's degree.

Just a few hours before the Marseille team arrived in Lyon, France's "Voice of the North" reported something. Their reporter discovered a "secret", that is, the current Marseille team No. 27, the most popular young shooter in France, Zhang Yang. The first club he recommended was not Marseille, but Lyon. This student who is still studying at Lyon's business school was the first to find Lyon to request a trial. What was the result? Zhang Yang was rejected. Lyon's coach believed that the young man had no future and directly drove him away.
"Voice of the North" is one of the most famous media outlets in France. Once this report was released, it immediately caused a sensation throughout France.
Some Lyon fans expressed their opinions on the forum.
"Really? How could such a thing happen?"
"God, I really can't believe it. This is what happened to our team Lyon. Lyon, who has the best youth training system in France, will make such a mistake!"
"What's the name of that coach?"
"This is not true, I don't believe it."
"If it is true, it is definitely a shame for the team. Such a thing will happen."
"Unforgivable."
That's a big deal on the Internet.
Looking at these criticisms and comments, Lyon's assistant coach Belcotini was almost mad. What he was most worried about now was that the media pointed out his name. In that case, would he still have to mess with Lyon? His coaching career would be shamed.
The more he was afraid, the greater his hatred for Zhang Yang.
If it weren't for this kid, how could he suffer such a crime?
He didn't think about who is really responsible for this matter!
