The author says in the previous words:

Yes, it is still the same as the previous chapter.

Tang Jing sat upright in front of her father, who sat behind a large desk, wearing reading glasses and carefully reading his daughter's new manuscript.

He read the 3,000-word manuscript for a full fifteen minutes, and he didn't have the intention of putting it down. There was silence in the editor-in-chief's office.

After a long time, the editor-in-chief Tang Yuanan took off his reading glasses and rubbed the Qingming acupoint.

"Xiaojing, I'm going to retire in a few years......"

"I know, Dad. If there's a problem, you can put all the blame on me. ”

Tang Yuanan put down his hand and glared at his daughter sitting opposite. "Nonsense! Can your dad be such a person? ”

Tang Jing didn't speak, just continued to look at her father, the president and editor-in-chief of the sports newspaper with the largest circulation in China.

"I've been pulling this newspaper almost single-handedly, and it's been twenty-two years...... I'm just worried that if you publish this article, there will be a lot of pressure on the society......"

Tang Jing pouted: "Then I'll resign now and switch to other sports newspapers, so it's better to harm them." ”

"Hey, you ......" Tang Yuanan really can't do anything about his daughter. He glared at Tang Jing for a moment, and then his tone eased slightly. "Actually, Tony. These words spoken by Don are not new, when the General Administration of Sports planned to implement the national system and restore football to the era of professional sports schools, many people discussed this issue in private. But no one dared to say it publicly. Even if it is said in front of the media, this kind of thing will not be in the media...... Do you know why, Jing? ”

"The pressure from the Football Association."

"Nope." Tang Yuanan shook his head, "The Football Association has long been a rat crossing the street. After the Olympics, Xinhua News Agency and People's Daily News successively published articles criticizing the Football Association. Someone has to come out to the top of the Olympic and World Cup qualifiers, and the Football Association is a good target. The real pressure comes from ...... General Directorate of Sports. The Football Association is a subordinate agency of the General Administration of Sports, and the real ones who make the decision are actually the General Administration of Sports, and the Football Association is just following the general route given by the General Administration. So who is Don scolding with this? It's not the Football Association, it's the General Administration of Sports. ”

Tang Jing's face also changed color slightly. She is still very clear about the difference between the Football Association and the General Administration of Sports, and she also knows which institution has more energy.

After thinking about it in her seat for a moment, she got up and walked over to her father's desk and reached for the manuscript. "No more, Dad. I won't embarrass you. ”

Tang Yuanan wanted to reach out and take it back, but the hand he had just raised put it back again, and let his daughter pick up the manuscript full of Tang En's angry words and walk out of the office.

Tang Jing, who returned to the press room, began to pack up the things on her desk—her favorite Garfield pendant, her own drinking glass, folders, books...... Her colleague watched strangely as she silently cleaned up the things, and there were fewer and fewer things on the table, and they were all swept into the boxes.

"Tang Jing, what are you doing?" Finally, a colleague with a better relationship came over and asked in surprise.

"I resigned." Tang Jing took out a folded piece of paper from the pocket of her clothes, spread it out and pressed it on the table. Then she picked up the box and smiled at her caring colleague.

"Resign......" None of her colleagues reacted, and they watched her leave the office in amazement.

The piece of paper pressed against the table was a "letter of resignation" that had been written long ago.

※※※When Tang Jing was driving back to her residence, she received a call from her father.

"Tang Jing!!" Tang Yuanan shouted angrily on the phone. "What do you want to do?"

"I'm quitting, Dad." Tang Jing's face was calm. "You don't care what I want to do now."

"I won't promise you to resign!"

"Then we'll go to the labor arbitration court, Dad."

"......" Tang Jing could even hear the sound of her father gritting his teeth, squeaking.

"Good!" He exhaled a sulky breath, "Even if you resign, you're still my daughter." I don't allow it! ”

"Your daughter has long since become an adult, and she has long since moved out to live in Reading. Even if you are a father, you have no right to interfere in your daughter's life. ”

"You ......"

Tang Yuanan wanted to say something, but Tang Jing had ruthlessly refused to continue talking with him. "Alright, Dad. Your daughter is now on the steering wheel in her left hand and her phone in her right hand, driving on the Ring Road. If you don't want to get a funeral call from the traffic police for a while, I'm going to hang up now, Dad. ”

"Hey, Tang Jing, you...... Hey, hey? Hey, hey! ”

All you can hear is busy.

※※※ That evening, Tang Jing updated her blog post on Sina Blog, announcing that she had officially resigned from "Sports Weekly" and was now a lonely and unemployed vagrant. Then I recalled some of my life working at the newspaper and thanked some people.

Because of her coverage of Nottingham Forest in Nottingham, and at the same time, it is rumored that she is a well-known "beautiful reporter" who has some scandals with Tang, Tang Jing's blog has always been very popular. So her article was quickly reprinted. Those who knew her well were all surprised by her resignation. Because there was no indication that she was unhappy at the newspaper office before, just two days before her resignation, she was ordered to fly to Chengdu to do an interview with Don. There are many journalists in China who want to do an interview with Tang En, but Tang Jing is the only one who has the opportunity. I haven't heard of any contradictions between her and the leader - everyone knows that she is the daughter of the president and editor-in-chief, and no matter how big the contradiction is, she will not resign...... The advantages and disadvantages of the Internet era are that the surname is strong. So in less than a night, the news that "a well-known beautiful reporter of a well-known sports newspaper in China suddenly and mysteriously resigned" was on the front page of several portals. Many netizens have expressed their opinions on this, and there are all kinds of theories.

The most exciting thing is that some people said that because this woman and Coach Tang were exposed, they had to resign due to pressure from all sides. She said that she went to Chengdu to interview Tang En, but she actually went on a date with Tang, but she didn't expect to be caught by Tang En on the spot and killed in bed. Nottingham Forest lodged an outcry with a newspaper and had to resign to quell the gaffe, despite being the president's daughter. Otherwise, it will be bad for everyone to poke things out...... However, although this statement is wonderful, not many people believe it. Because how could a foreign club be furious because one of its assistant coaches had a surname relationship with a woman from his home country while on vacation? It's child's play.

As a result, the real reason for Tang Jing's resignation is still in different opinions.

Some reporters also called Tang Jing, hoping to hear what she had to say. As a result, Tang Jing's mobile phone was turned off and she couldn't be contacted at all.

The only window for her external contact is a Sina blog.

The next night, while everyone was still speculating about why Tang Jing, a beautiful journalist who had been making a name for herself in recent years, suddenly resigned from her job, her blog was updated.

"This is my trip to Chengdu two days ago to interview Tony. One last question when Donn coached. I just asked as a routine question, but I didn't expect to get an unexpected response. Coach Don is known to be fluent in Chinese, and we have been talking directly in Chinese from beginning to end. So don't be suspicious, I'll take the opportunity of translation to tamper with his answers. This is the original text, and tomorrow I consider publishing the audio recording of this conversation. This is what Tang Jing wrote in the front, and the next thing is naturally the article she showed to her father.

Chinese Football Through the Eyes of a Successful English Football Coach

In the 3,000-word essay, Donn-style words and phrases can be found everywhere. This unruly England coach drenched the dogs of Chinese football with blood, and the scolding hit the nail on the head, so that most people would nod their heads in agreement when they saw it.

At the end of the article is Tang Jing's words written at the end: Everyone is welcome to reprint, but please do not change any of the words.

Tang Jing succeeded, she used the resignation incident to arouse everyone's appetite, and after focusing on her blog, she threw out this long-planned article, which caused an earthquake on the Internet in the shortest possible time.

Sina, Sohu, NetEase, Tencent, Tianya ...... and other well-known and unfamous professional and unprofessional websites and forums that have nothing to do with football have all reprinted this article as soon as possible. Source: Her blog skyrocketed overnight, and comments were refreshed every minute.

Some people agree, some scold, some ponder and some question.

Those who agree with it naturally say that this article is scolded to the point, which makes some people suddenly realize.

The people who scold are more interesting - of course they will not scold Tang En and Tang Jing because they support such bad Chinese football. The reason for their scolding is: no matter how bad Chinese football is, no matter how bad the Chinese Football Association is, it is also our Chinese's own family affairs. When will it be the turn of an English barbarian to dictate the affairs of his own family? Still scolding so ugly, who do you think you are? No matter how successful you are, no matter how many championships you win, what is so awesome here in China? Not to mention that you seem to be very depressed in the last two years...... Those who question it are questioning Tang Jing for fabricating articles to sensationalize, which is simply self-hype. Anyway, now is an era of hype, and it is not uncommon to hype others, and you have to hype yourself. You don't see those celebrity bloggers and Internet celebrities, they are all the products of self-hype. So this year belongs to the era of "you have to dare to show off even if you look ugly". Their reasons are also very good - an Englishman, no matter how much he claims to know and love China, will not be able to say such a sharp thing about the current situation of Chinese football. These words can only be written by people who have been in Chinese football for many years, or only Chinese who really understand and care about Chinese football. What is the excitement of an Englishman running around? Does he know who the current full-time vice chairman of the Chinese Football Association is, just scolding the system here. And look at the ubiquitous mood of "hating iron does not make steel" and "anger does not fight and mourn its misfortune" in the article, how can an Englishman who has nothing to do with our country have such emotions? Therefore, based on the above inferences, it is concluded that Tang Jing's level of fraud is too low, or he is simply selling such a big flaw to complete self-hype.

"Questioning" has a market in the mainstream media because they represent the voice of "calm thinking". Although these people are indeed very calm, they all think carefully, and they do not blindly follow the words of others. But it's a shame...... This time their serious analysis was really wrong.

Some people called on Tang Jing to put the recording file she said on the Internet for proof.

But the next day, Tang Jing's blog was quiet, and there was no "Tony. Donn's original sound reappears".

Now, the tide of questioning her for making up news and hyping herself has become even more turbulent. And it also derived a faction - agreeing with what the article said, and also affirming Tang Jing's original intention of doing so. But I still think that this article was made up by Tang Jing herself.

In addition, there are rumors that the Football Association also attaches great importance to this article, and if it is really Tang Jing's fabrication, they do not rule out taking it to court.

Tang Jing then wrote in a blog: "I thought about it, now technology is so advanced. Even if I send out a recording file, it will definitely be perceived by people who don't believe it as a fake through some kind of voice changing software. It's like when the nude photos gate first came out, didn't the fans of those celebrities think that the photos were photoshopped? Pictures can be ps, videos can also be faked, so why is it difficult to fake an audio file? People who don't believe don't believe it, no matter what evidence you come up with, they won't believe it, and sometimes I feel that I doubt everything, and it's sad that everything is overwhelmed...... So I decided not to post it for the time being. If you have any questions, go ask Tony yourself. Dawn. Isn't he in Sichuan, China? ”

※※※ Don suddenly found that his plan to spend a vacation with his parents and Tang in this small city in southern Sichuan was completely ruined.

Because there were suddenly many reporters with accents of Mandarin from all over the country near Tang's parents' house...... Every day someone knocks on the door and asks politely and humbly, "Excuse me Tony. Does Mr. Donn live here? ”

Ever since Tang Jing called on people who have questions to ask Tony for themselves in her blog. Don, these reporters really all ran over. Anyway, when I interviewed Tang before, I knew the address of the Tang family, and I came to the door one by one, hoping to hear Tang En say whether those words really came from him.

In order not to disturb the second elder, Tang En had to move to a hotel in the city with Shania, and finally lured the fly-like reporter away from Tang's house.

But they didn't come here to enjoy the mountains and rivers, they just wanted to live with the second elder. With such a toss, what is the point of going back to Sichuan?

"What's going on?" Don was taken aback, and couldn't figure out why he had suddenly turned into a cream cake that attracted flies.

"What you said to Tang Jing was put on her blog." Only Tang and Tang Jing are still in contact, so they know what happened. "But I didn't expect them to come to you so quickly. It seems that ......" He didn't say it later, it seems that Tang Jing can't hold it anymore.

"Damn, is there a mistake?" Tang En scolded, "It's just that scolding the current situation of Chinese football will come to me like crazy people." China conservatively estimates that 10,000 people are scolding Chinese football every day, right? Why don't you go to them? ”

"If ordinary people scold, the boss doesn't care. You're different, you're a public figure, you're a famous coach. Even if you fart, someone will pay attention. ”

Don covered his nose: "You can find a better analogy in the future." It's my mouth, not my asshole. No, why should I suffer this sin for your secret lover? Can't play it anymore...... I'll just have a showdown with them, tell them the answer, and then let them go where they came from! ”

"Aren't you worried?"

"What am I worried about?" Tang En looked at Tang strangely, "What is there to dare not admit when you say such a thing, and it is not a shameful thing." Besides...... I'm an Englishman, what am I afraid to say? scolded them, what can the Football Association master do with me? Block me? Don't let me attend the Spring Festival Gala? Remove ads for products I endorse? Completely cut off the possibility of me coaching the Chinese team? Oh, and thank goodness that...... When you hear this, you can die at night. ”

※※※ The next day, Tang Enyu informed the reporters who had followed him to the small city of southern Sichuan that he would hold an impromptu press conference tomorrow. If there are any questions, they will be asked.

Donn's hotel is one of the best in the city, but it's rare to see anything like that. They treat it as the most solemn thing and do their best. The propaganda is also very well done. All the reporters who came to hear the news that Don was going to hold a press conference, so more people flocked here.

On the day of the impromptu press conference, the hotel's specially secluded conference room was simply not enough for people to stand. The person in charge of the hotel was so anxious that his head was full of sweat. In the end, it was Don who came out and asked everyone to simply move to the lobby, which solved the problem.

Because it was an impromptu press conference, there was no time to prepare any background boards for advertising sponsors, and the curtain behind Donn was printed with the hotel's huge logo and name, but it was a free advertisement for them.

"I know what you're asking, I looked at it on the Internet yesterday." As soon as Don sat down, he didn't wait for the reporters to raise their hands to ask questions, and said directly in Chinese. "It's a funny thing. I'm not saying that the article is interesting, I'm saying that everything that comes out of it is interesting. ”

"I wouldn't deny what I've done. I carefully read Miss Tang Jing's blog post. I am here to make a formal announcement that not a single word has been changed in that article about what I said, and it was indeed said by me to Miss Tang Jing personally. Don looked at the stunned reporters with a serious look.

"Alright, that's all I have to say, goodbye." After saying that, he got up and was about to leave.

The reporters woke up like a dream, and they didn't care about the order of raising their hands to ask questions, so they squeezed forward one by one, blocked Tang En, and threw out their questions one after another.

"Mr. Donn! I can't understand why you're saying that! ”

"Tang Jing asked, of course I have to answer, what's so hard to understand?"

"No, no, I mean...... Your answer is somewhat out of proportion to who you are......"

"What's out of proportion? Because I'm the manager of Nottingham Forest, can't I comment on Chinese football? You reporters don't particularly like to ask when interviewing foreigners - what do you think of the Chinese players and the Chinese football team...... Wait? ”

"Mr. Tang En, you can't have such a deep understanding of Chinese football, could it be that Miss Tang Jing hinted at you? Or did she write the answer in advance for you to read it? ”

"Don't tease you, sir. You're insulting not only my IQ, but also my personality. I understood all those words on my own, and no one gave me any hints, nor did I memorize the manuscript beforehand. ”

"But you're British......"

"What? I remember saying that I know China very well...... Know everything about the country, including, of course, football. Do I understand that your football is unconscionable? Your football is so bad that everyone knows it, and I, an Englishman who likes to love China, knows a lot about it, right? A Yanjing Olympics has already made your football embarrassed and thrown all over the world, what else is incredible? Do you think you can't see this fact by sticking your head in the dirt and pouting your ass? In addition, there are several full-time vice presidents of the Chinese Football Association who are engaged in football and understand football, and they can sit in the position of number one, why is no one asking them loudly whether it is so reasonable? You are not in a position to question whether it is reasonable for me to say that! ”

Donn squeezed out as he replied to the reporters' questions with his sharp teeth. The hotel security guards also wanted to come up to help, but they lost the opportunity and were already squeezed to the outermost periphery, and could only watch the rush to the encirclement.

"But Mr. Don't you think that as a foreigner, you are too much to evaluate Chinese football?"

"What's too much? It's rotten, it's rotten, it's rotten, and no one is allowed to say it, no wonder your football hasn't improved for decades. What kind of ugliness should not be publicized? I think you should take the initiative to publicize it, and the more people who raise it, the better, and cover up the pus-draining wounds if they don't clean them...... Are you going to get rich by raising meat maggots? ”

"You are a foreigner, what's the point of criticizing Chinese football like this?"

"It doesn't make much sense. You ask me to answer, it's just a little meaning. If you have the ability, don't you come here from thousands of miles away to ask me questions? "Speaking of this question, Don En is furious - damn, Lao Tzu's holiday has been mixed with you flies, and you have the face to ask such idiotic questions in front of me!

The smell of gunpowder at the scene has become stronger and stronger.

Afterwards, some media said that Tony. Donn directly argued with a group of reporters at the press conference, but it was not a lie...... "Mr. Donn, is it appropriate for you to criticize the official body that governs football in a country like this?" ”

"What's out of place? The British Prime Minister will be said to be wrong if he does something wrong, what is there to say if there is a problem with a football association? Do you all think that the Chinese Football Association has no problems at all, works diligently and conscientiously, and has a correct and responsible attitude? Don couldn't hold back a laugh. I have nothing to say if you think so. I scolded and scolded, and criticized and criticized. The Chinese Football Association is not happy? Angry? What's the matter with me! I tell you, if they were standing before me today, I would say the same! It's just a dog raised by the General Administration, and it's really difficult to be a character yourself? It's a ridiculous ...... Amusing! Lamentable! Wretched! Shameful! ”

With that, Don pushed through the crowd and squeezed out.

Halfway through, he turned around and pointed to the group of reporters and said, "I suddenly thought of a joke. Ah, it's a joke, but it's actually a true story that happened to me...... The atmosphere was too tense just now, do you want me to tell you to relieve your emotions? ”

After speaking, without waiting for these reporters to agree, he said to himself: "The right-back Raphinha in my team is a member of the Brazilian Olympic team, as one of the few people in my team who is fortunate enough to participate in the Yenching Olympics. When he returned to Nottingham, he showed me the Chinese he had learned in China, and one day during training he smugly said to me: 'Boss! I know how to shout for the Brazilian team in Chinese! So I asked him to shout and look, and then I heard him shouting, 'Xie Xlong is out of class!' ’”

All the reporters present looked at each other silently.

Don looked at them and smiled, "Is it cold?" But I think it's funny! I'm really laughing at me, ahhahahaha-"

He just left the makeshift press conference hall "hahahaha". Leaving a stunned crowd behind.

※※※ The author said in the following words:

Actually, I think I'm quite sad. If I could, I would like to point at the noses of the leaders of the Chinese Football Association and scold them in person: "Ignorance! Impotent! Shameless! Stupid! **！ Pretend! ”

Instead of borrowing the protagonist's mouth in what I wrote......
