"Lao Hong, what arrangements does the Football Association have for me now? The top 12 tournament is about to begin. Should I lead the team or not?"
Shi Wuyin blocked Hong Renjie outside the office of the national team leader, got straight to the point, and asked his question straightforwardly.
"Uh..." Hong Renjie didn't expect Shi Wuyin to be so straightforward. He originally wanted to practice Tai Chi, but seeing Shi Wuyin like this, he probably couldn't do it. So he could only tell the truth: "To be honest, the boss is also here now
Hesitant..."
"Afraid that if you don't let me lead the team, no one will take over, and if you let me lead the team, you're afraid that I will lead the team into a ditch?" Shi Wuyin stood in front of Hong Renjie, blocking his way, looking directly at him, as if "
If you don't give me an explanation today, I won't let you go."
It's not surprising that he did this. After all, the top 12 tournament was getting closer and closer, and the national team was about to reconvene the players for training and preparation. The Football Association did not give him any instructions. He was confused about what to do next.
You can't continue to be so confused, right?
He had previously taken advantage of the days when the national team was not playing games, and he and Li Zhifei flew around the country to inspect the players' status, conduct tactical analysis and arrange training plans.
But these are just words on paper. In the end, they are meaningless if they cannot be implemented.
"Lao Hong, I don't want a status for myself, nor do I want treatment. I came to you today because the matter really can't be postponed. If you don't give me an explanation, how can I lead the team? Who will be recruited by the national team?
Do I have the final say on who will not be called? Do I have to do nothing and just let nature take its course as the head coach of the national team? When the Football Association finds a new head coach, I will give him the office.
?”
"Xiao Shi, please don't worry. I understand what you mean. But I'm not lying to you. The Football Association is really hesitant... I'm not hiding it from you either. They really haven't found a suitable candidate right now, so they want to...
Let you lead the team to play in the top 12 first, and make do with it..."
Shi Wuyin's eyes widened: "Can the national team compete in the World Cup?"
"Uh..." Hong Renjie was speechless.
"Lao Hong, don't tell me that some are gone. Didn't the Football Association fail to find a suitable successor? I am willing to be this successor. I can also write a military order. If the World Cup does not appear, I will bear criminal responsibility.
…”
Hong Renjie was so frightened that he waved his hands quickly: "It's not necessary, Xiao Shi, it's not necessary... There is no law in our country that stipulates that if you don't lead the national team to the World Cup, you will go to jail. The Football Association is indeed considering letting you lead the team until the end.
The top 12..."
At this point, he paused, then looked around, and lowered his voice and said to Shi Wuyuan: "But the internal opinions are not unified... so there is a bit of a stalemate."
"Then we can't stay like this forever. We have to come up with an explanation. It's okay to make me a firefighter, but give me the corresponding rights, right? How can a firefighter put out fires if you don't give him a water gun? If the Football Association agrees to my request,
The national team now has personnel to adjust, so I have no objection. Didn't I report on this matter before?" Shi Wuyin asked.
"That report of yours..." Hong Renjie gnashed his teeth in worry. "According to what you said, several old members of the national team have to be removed from the team. The impact at this moment is not good..."
"So if we can't get out of the line, the impact will be fine?"
"That's not what you said. What if you are eliminated from the team but also not qualified?"
"I'll be responsible!"
Hong Renjie shook his head: "You can't bear this responsibility, Xiao Shi."
"Then you find someone who can take responsibility. I won't do it anymore." After saying this, Shi Wuyuan turned around and left.
Hong Renjie quickly pulled him back: "Hey, Xiao Shi, let's talk about it if we have anything to say...Don't be like this."
"Then what else can I do, Lao Hong? You know me, I am sincerely good for our national football team, and I sincerely hope that we can go to the World Cup. Lao Li and I have done so much work in the past few months, inspecting everywhere
Players, study the opponent's tactics...am I doing it for my own selfish gain? Let me put it bluntly, Lao Hong. The national team salary given to me by the Football Association is not as good as the annual salary that the club would pay me to coach. I
Why are you willing to join the national team? It’s not because you see Hu Lai and the others, these young people, they have hope and they shouldn’t miss the opportunity of the World Cup!”
Shi Wuyuan became more and more excited as he talked, and he broke away from Hong Renjie's hand.
"Of course I know that blood exchange will cause turmoil. But if you don't exchange blood, there will be a dead end! For the benefit and future of the national team, what is the reputation of a few veteran players? Did Zhao Kangming get scolded less back then? How bad is his reputation?
Has anyone been beaten down? No, what achievements are there now? The entire Flash Star has almost become a holy place for young Chinese players! Could those old players be more wronged than Zhao Kangming? I put it harshly, they have long been
If someone should quit the national team, what does it mean to stick around? Isn’t it because being a national player can help them ask for more salary from the club? National players are 10 million a year, and non-national players are 5 million a year. There is a difference of one
times. But they can’t drag down the national team just because of their own selfish desires! The money they make in a year is enough for ordinary people for several lifetimes. People can’t be so greedy, right? If they make a few million less, they can’t afford to pay off the car loan and house loan? How much less can they afford?
You can’t open the pot in a million-dollar family?”
Seeing that Shi Wuyuan was really angry, Hong Renjie could only nod his head: "Yes, yes, you are right..."
"Besides, I made the decision to change the team, and I also gave me the list of who should be removed from the team. If the Football Association has any concerns, just put all the responsibility on me. Even if the media comes to criticize me, it doesn't matter.
. As long as you give me the power to select and employ people, and let me reorganize the national team, it doesn’t matter how the outside world scolds me. The big deal is, after leading this national team, I will stop working in the country, and I will go to Europe to study!"
"It's not that serious, it's not that serious..." Hong Renjie kept waving his hands.
"I'm telling the truth, Lao Hong. You are afraid of offending people. I am not afraid of Shi Wuyuan. Feel free to throw the blame on my back. I will do the evil. As long as I can lead the team to the top 12, even if it is true
Whether they can enter the World Cup or not, as long as these young players can go through the training of the top 12 and accumulate experience, after they mature in the next four years, our national team may not have no hope of going to the World Cup. Hu Lai is currently playing in the Premier League.
How great! But Luo Kai and Chen Xingyi can only stay at home. If they can also go to Europe, what will our national team look like by then? Lao Hong, when I was the head coach of the Olympic team,
He said that I wanted to plant trees for Chinese football. I planted all the saplings and handed them to you with my own hands. However, you just left these saplings alone... Then what do I do as the head coach of the Olympic team?
"
Hong Renjie raised his hands and signaled Shi Wuyuan to stop talking: "Xiao Shi, stop talking. I know everything, I understand what you mean, and I have absolutely no doubt about your sincerity... Well, I'll go find him today
Above, no matter what, I will definitely give you an explanation today."
Then he didn't even enter his office, turned around and walked in another direction.
※※※
When Shi Wuyin returned to his office, Li Zhifei rushed to him the moment he opened the door and couldn't wait to ask: "How is it, how is it?"
"He promised to help me talk to the leader. Anyway, I made my requirements clear. If I really don't agree, then I will resign and leave." Shi Wuyin walked around Li Zhifei and walked to his seat.
He came down and said, "I don't mind taking the blame, but you have to let me do things. If I were to take the blame, I wouldn't be stupid."
"Yes, yes, no one is a fool." Li Zhifei turned around with a smile and sat on the desk with half of his buttocks, "It's pointless for us to waste time here. So how sure do you think you are this time?"
Shi Wuyin shook his head: "I don't know either. I don't want to guess what it means. Anyway, let's just wait for the news. If you agree to my suggestion, we will do it. If you don't agree, we will break up. At that time, Lao Li, you should go home.
Are you going to wash the dishes for your sister-in-law?"
"Otherwise...who is going to wash the dishes?!" Li Zhifei suddenly looked at Shi Wuyin with wide eyes.
Shi Wuyuan burst out laughing, and then comforted Li Zhifei: "It's okay, Lao Li. I'm still doing laundry at home."
"Hand rub?"
"How can you do that? Of course, throw it into the washing machine!"
"Then you have the nerve to say you wash clothes?"
"Throwing the dirty clothes into the washing machine and taking out the washed clothes from the washing machine and drying them, I have also put in the work. Doesn't it count as washing the clothes?"
"That's bullshit!" Li Zhifei said angrily.
"Don't be angry, Lao Li. What I mean is to suggest that you buy a dishwasher. Wouldn't washing dishes be like me washing clothes?"
They bickered like this habitually, until Shi Wuyin's cell phone suddenly rang without warning.
The two of them looked at the mobile phone placed on the table at the same time.
Caller:
Lao Hong.
They both looked away at the same time and looked at each other.
pick up!
Li Zhifei signaled Shi Wuyuan with his eyes.
Shi Wuyin seemed a little suspicious because Lao Hong called so soon. He frowned and didn't dare to answer.
Li Zhifei next to him became anxious. He placed his palm above Shi Wuyuan's phone. When a small palm icon appeared on the screen, he pressed it down.
The incoming call was answered and the external speaker was automatically turned on.
Then Hong Renjie's voice came from the speaker of the mobile phone: "Hello, Xiao Shi?"
"Hey, Lao Hong, what's going on?" Shi Wuyin asked cautiously.
Don't look at the fact that when he went to see Hong Renjie just now, he made an impassioned speech and acted with emotion and reason. When he came back, he also looked like a bachelor and was very free and easy towards Li Zhifei. But when he really had to face him, he hesitated and acted coquettishly.
.
"Xiao Shi, just do as you say." Hong Renjie's first words stunned the two people on the phone, "But you have to show some results. The two best games in the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia are At least you have to win one game. Otherwise, you will be dismissed from get out of class. Regardless of whether there is a suitable candidate at that time, you will be dismissed from get out of class. Do you understand?"
Shi Wuyin's voice was already trembling a little, and he replied loudly: "I can write a military order! If I can't win, I will lose..."
Hong Renjie quickly interrupted him: "No, no, no. No need for a military order. If you do, let's drink and eat meat together. If not, let's pack up and leave together."
"Ah? Lao Hong, you..." Shi Wuyuan was surprised.
"I guarantee you. Okay, hurry up and do your work. I have to go to a meeting..." After Hong Renjie finished speaking, he hung up the phone in a hurry.
In front of the mobile phone, Shi Wuyuan and Li Zhifei looked at each other again.
"Old Li, we really have no way out now..."
Li Zhifei nodded: "I know."
Then he lowered his head and took out his cell phone.
"What are you doing?" Shi Wuyin saw Li Zhifei opening a shopping APP.
"I want to see which dishwasher is better and buy it for your sister-in-law. I won't go back soon because your sister-in-law hurts her hands from washing too many dishes..."
Seeing Li Zhifei lowering his head and comparing the shopping pages intently, Shi Wuyin grinned.
