Chapter 11: Tang En, the Newsmaker (Part II)

"This ...... I have to ask Mr. President. As soon as Don finished speaking, his phone rang. He looked at the number and saw that it was Chairman Dogetty calling.

"Sorry, I have a phone ......" he pointed to the door, and Konstantin nodded.

Don, who walked out of the door, pressed the answer button: "Mr. President, what are you looking for me?" ”

Dogtty's old voice rang on the other end of the phone: "Tony, I haven't congratulated you on yesterday's game yet." We lost, but you and the boys did a good job. ”

"Thank you, Mr. President, that's just my job."

"You're still so humble. That's right, Tony. Although I think you played beautifully with that hand at halftime yesterday. But I still have to remind you that the dressing room is a very special place and you don't just let the fans in. You know, it's a football tradition, and we're the third oldest football club in England and we need to value that tradition. ”

"Yes, I see."

Dogetty laughed: "Yesterday's game was really exciting. Do you know? It's been a long time since I've seen a game like that. You can rest assured that your position is solid until the end of the season. I'm still the same sentence, I won't put any pressure on you, do what you think. I like you, Tony. ”

"Thank you, Mr. President, I am flattered." Donn remembered Constantine's conditions, so he told Dogetty about it, hoping to ask the chairman's opinion.

"Tony, you're the manager of the team. We at Forest FC are not listed companies like Manchester United, although we do do ...... But we're still football-oriented. Below me, you are the greatest. You have the power to decide these things, you don't need to ask me. If you feel like it's appropriate, you do it. ”

These words reassured Donn. After again thanking and greeting President Dogeti, he hung up the phone. Pushing open the door and finding Konstantin still drinking coffee with that cup, Donn smiled at him: "Okay, I agree to your terms, Professor Konstantin." VIP box, a season-long home season ticket. ”

The old guy had a big smile on his face.

"But don't rejoice too soon, I have my conditions, too." Don held out his right index finger, "You're the best hospital here, right?" ”

Konstantin proudly said: "Although I can't say that I am the best in the UK, there is no problem with the top 10." ”

"That would be great. Yes, there are only two specialised doctors in the first team at the club, and the last thing you need here is doctors, and I hope you can put me in touch with a few of them through personal connections. ”

"That's no problem, you can choose ...... intern every year"

"No, I don't want the hairy lads who interned, if they break my players, who do I go to? I need an experienced veteran, an expert in sports injuries. ”

Konstantin frowned.

Don observed the change in his expression, and then said, "If we can't do it, then our agreement will be null and void before that." ”

"Oh no, no. Wait a minute...... I remember a couple of old men who had just retired, maybe they could ......"

"Is it an expert?"

"I'm not a professor, but ...... But I promise they're definitely better than any of the doctors on your team right now! They have extensive clinical experience. You know...... Clinicians with a lot of experience can earn more and have a higher status than a professor like me who specializes in academic research. Konstantin affirmed, "I can help you get in touch, I'm old friends with them, and I'm sure they'll be happy to work for their favorite team." ”

Don laughed, "That's great. Pleasant to work with, Professor Konstantin. He held out his hand.

Konstantin also stretched out his hand, but he still muttered reluctantly: "You are really the devil...... Happy working together! ”

Since Dogetty said he could decide a lot of things within the club, Donn was unceremoniously exercising that power. He knows what injuries mean for a professional footballer. And having a good physician can minimize this impact. Anyone who plays the game knows that the club has several "miracle doctors" that can reduce the chance of a player getting injured a lot, and even if he is injured, he can greatly shorten the healing time. He intends to do a good job at Forest, so he naturally wants to do his best in all aspects and try to keep himself at the club as a permanent manager next season. As for the road ahead...... He hasn't had time to plan yet, but if he does a good job here, he won't be too bad wherever he goes in the future.

The two signed a concise agreement, shook hands, and it was done.

Because of the benefits, Konstantin personally sent Don down the stairs, after all, they will have to cooperate often in the future.

The two walked towards the gate while chatting, but when they reached the hospital gate, they were startled.

There were a number of reporters gathered outside the gate, roughly counting about a dozen people, most of them newspaper reporters, but there were also TV reporters.

"This is ......," Don certainly knew who these reporters were coming for. I just didn't expect British journalists to have such a keen sense of smell and such a magical sense of information.

"Hell! I promise it's not me who ...... called," Konstantin hurriedly explained.

Seeing Don come out of the door, the reporters rushed forward. One by one, "Manager Donne" and "Mr. Donne" shouted, and more than a dozen microphones, interview pens, and even mobile phones reached his mouth. Don believed that as long as he opened his mouth, these things would be stuffed into his mouth.

Don saw their mouths open and close rapidly, but he couldn't make out what they were saying. Because more than a dozen people are talking together, it is impossible to tell who said what is said.

Konstantin turned his head to look for the security guard: "What about the security guard?" ”

A staff member next to him hurriedly ran up and explained in a very aggrieved voice: "Professor, they said that if we stop it, they will prosecute us for obstructing press freedom......

"It's ......" Konstantin wanted to curse badly, but he remembered that there were microphones of journalists everywhere, and if his own words were recorded, his reputation as a gentleman would be ruined. Didn't you remind them that this is a hospital and needs to be quiet? ”

"But until you came out, they were quiet......"

At this time, Don suddenly yelled: "Quiet! Give me all the quiet! ”

The roar startled both the reporter and Konstantin, who had come closest to learning how a professional coach could command a game from the sidelines.

"This is the hospital, what are you making all the noise about?" Donn began to lecture the reporters coming. "I know you're here for me, and you're asking questions one by one. I don't have much time and I have the right to refuse to answer sensitive questions. With that, he began to look at his watch, "Fifteen minutes of free questioning." "He was more professional than the host at yesterday's post-match press conference.

No one expected that Don would publicly hold a press conference in front of the hospital and change from passive to active. It was the BBC reporters who reacted first, and they raised their hands: "Mr Donne, we'd love to hear what you said about the referee at your press conference yesterday, and now the FA is meeting to study what you said yesterday......

"I'm not going to change my assessment of the referee for that game." He spotted the BBC logo on the microphone, "You are BBC reporters, you can go back and watch the video of yesterday's game for yourself, and swear in God's name that there is no problem with the referee's decision on those two balls." I know that there are people who want the super team to qualify, not us who have no money and no power! ”

This remark caused an uproar in the crowd. Didn't Done's last sentence imply that the FA was biased in favour of the superteams? Of course, he may not have meant it that way, but that doesn't prevent us from understanding it that way...... That's big news! After that, there was a lot of excitement to see in the next few days. I really don't know about this Tony; Whether Don is deliberately pretending to be stupid, or is he really a tendon in his head, he dares to say these things.

Looking at the reporter's reaction, Donn added: "I don't want to continue answering on this topic. Next. ”

Don En was a little impressed by the question this time, that is, the reporter of the Evening Post newspaper who asked him to say "We were forcibly annihilated by the referee" yesterday, a young man whose name is very similar to the actor of 007.

"Hello, Mr. Donn. I'm Pierce, a reporter for the Nottingham Evening Post; Bruce. We all know that you were beaten by your own player David in the 27th round of League One Forest's home match against Walsall five days ago on January 1. Johansen was injured and was in a coma for a while......"

Don interrupted him, "I hope you can summarize your own questions before you ask them, do you want to tell you a story here?" In the face of this group of reporters, Tang En's good mood just now was gone, and his words naturally became much more scathing.

Konstantin glanced at the poor young man, then stole his gaze at Don. He has already begun to observe......

The young man's face was flushed, but he still mustered up the courage to ask, "I...... I just wanted to ask if your coming here had something to do with what happened on the sidelines that day? ”

Donn pushed Konstantin, who was standing beside him, and whispered to him, "Professor, it's your turn." Say more nonsense, ten minutes will pass quickly. ”

Konstantin coughed, and said to many media with a lecturing expression: "Here's how it ...... thing"

Ten minutes later, when the originally excited reporters all started yawning. He finally uttered the most substantial words: "According to our observations and comprehensive examination, there is nothing abnormal about Mr. Donn's head, and he is no different from a normal person. ”

Donn tilted his head behind Konstantin and whispered, "Well done, Professor." Happy working together! Then he raised his hands and pointed to the watch on his wrist: "I'm sorry guys, it's time, I have to go." ”

The reporters were apparently reluctant to let him go, and someone shouted, "Mr. Donne! West Ham United manager Glenn; Rod claimed that you made very unfriendly remarks about his team after the game, saying that you congratulated his team on their relegation! Is it true? ”

"Nonsense. He must have misheard him, and I congratulate him on his victory and wish his team success in relegation. Don saw a taxi coming at the entrance of the hospital, and just got off the passengers, he hurriedly lined up and walked out of the hospital gate quickly. Then I opened the door and got inside.

Then, the car drove away.

After Konstantin watched this scene, a smile appeared on his face: "What an interesting person. ”

"Sir...... What do you say? The security guard next to him asked.

"Nothing. I'll tell you to kick those reporters out, this is a hospital, not a celebrity mansion. He pointed to the reporters who were still gathered at the door, reluctant to disperse.

"But ......"

"If they use the excuse of obstructing press freedom. You tell them that the press conference is over and they have to leave. Otherwise, you call the police and accuse them of interfering with the normal work of the hospital. If there is a person who dies here, they will be held responsible. Throwing the mess at the poor person in charge, Konstantin turned and walked back.

β€»β€»β€»

The taxi had already driven two hundred meters out on the straight, and the guest still didn't say where he was going. The driver had to ask, "Mr. Donn, where are you going?" ”

In a stunned state, Don wondered how a taxi driver could know his name, and then saw the driver pick up a newspaper from the edge of his seat, which Don had seen four times today. He suddenly understood who had called those reporters, it must have been that Notts County fan Ms. Lilith!

He asked alarmedly: "Are you a Notts County fan?" ”

The driver pointed to the red jersey doll that had fallen under the rearview mirror, "Since my grandfather's grandfather, he has been a fan of the Forest team. ”

Don let out a sigh of relief. "Sorry, you saw that too, those people just now...... It was all called by a Notts County fan. ”

The driver laughed out loud in front, "Who told us that our two teams are mortal enemies in the same city?" Where are you going, sir. ”

Donn wanted to talk about going home, but he feared that haunted reporters would follow the car, as happened to Princess Diana. Just casually say, "Whatever!" Not going home anyway. ”

"But there's no such thing as a casual place." The driver couldn't make up his mind.

"Well, then you can take me around Nottingham."

"Yes, sir. Can I ask something about the Forest team? ”

Don put his head on the backrest and turned his head to look out the window: "Yes, as long as it doesn't interfere with your driving." But I have the right not to answer. He suddenly realized that he liked this sentence very much, and when he said it in front of so many reporters, it felt so cool! Well, he's going to have to talk to reporters about it in the future -- he doesn't care if they want to hear it or not.

β€»β€»β€»

When Donn's taxi was far enough away from the hospital and he was confident that no more reporters would be following him, he stopped it. Paid and got off. But the driver wouldn't take it: "Sir, if you can get the Forest team to play every time like yesterday's second half." If you need to use a car in the future, just call me, and I promise not to charge a penny! After saying that, he shoved the money and his business card into the stunned Donne's hands, closed the car window and drove away.

Looking at the taxi that disappeared into the traffic in the blink of an eye, the driver's words still echoed in his ears. Don didn't know what it was like.

Appreciated by Mr. President, adored and respected by ordinary fans, I just felt a little better because of the bad feeling of being surrounded by reporters. Some people admit what he has done, and this is his biggest gain so far. In the past, when he was in China, he was unlikable because of his surname and temperament, and no matter how hard he worked, he could not be recognized.

A woman is a person who pleases herself, and a person who is a confidant dies......

He found himself in love with the city and the fans.

Just when Don was full of emotion, he was suddenly hit and almost fell into the fast lane. Finally grabbed the fire hydrant on the side of the road, and steadied his body very embarrassed, but only saw a black figure hurriedly flashing, and then blended into the flow of people coming and going on the street.

"Be careful when you walk...... he used to touch his pocket, and found that the wallet in it was gone!

"Bastard! It's so clichΓ© to steal money! Don stood in the street and yelled. But such a clichΓ© way of stealing money also succeeded in him...... It seems that today is really his unlucky day, if there is an old imperial calendar, he should really see if it is not suitable to travel.

Historically, Nottingham was the place where Robin Hood, the world's most famous green forest thief, was born, so for hundreds of years, there has been a tradition of "robbing the rich and helping the poor", and everyone has regarded Robin Hood as an idol......

You must know that Nottingham has just "won" the first place in the "Most Dangerous City in the UK" selected by the famous English insurance company "Andersley", and the "British Gun Crime Center" selected by the police...... Poor Tony; Donne, I had a few hundred pounds in cash and a credit card and an ID card in my wallet.
