Chapter 487: A Very Serious Decision
After the second round of the league, Glory received a call from Molly.
"Hey, Sister Mo, what's the matter with me?" Rong Guang is now familiar with Molly, so he is more casual when he calls, not like the tone that a media reporter should maintain.
When Debora heard Glory say this, she raised her head and glanced at Glory.
Rong Guang and Molly speak in Chinese, and Debora can understand a few sentences after listening a lot, and the tone of voice can be judged without understanding the content.
Glory knew what her eyes meant. It's just that I don't pay attention to what I say.
But Glory ignored her.
What is the relationship between Sister Mo and us, and do you still speak in a tone of voice?
In fact, many times Glory doesn't treat Molly as a reporter, but as a friend.
When he needed to know what was going on in the country, he would go to Molly.
From the general environment of Chinese football to which street to go to when shopping in Beijing, Rongguang will call and ask Molly.
These things almost made him forget that Molly was actually a journalist.
Debora thinks that Glory is too casual in front of reporters, and no matter how familiar Molly is, she is also a reporter, and she still needs to be precautionary.
Seeing that Rongguang ignored herself, Debora knew that this kid was stubborn, but she was not very angry and had to let Rongguang correct it, anyway, this thing often happened, and she was used to it.
"That's right, Rong. The Chinese Football Association has completely terminated the '08 Olympic Star' program in Germany, and Crouchen resigned. I want to ask you what you do about this......
Before Molly could finish her sentence, Glory interrupted her: "What did you say?" Crowchen ...... Old man Ke resigned? ”
Glory's tone changed, and he became shocked.
Debora felt it keenly, and looked up at the glory again. Sure enough, Glory was dumbfounded.
So Debora also became curious - what did Molly say that surprised him so much?
"Yes, I have already left ......"
"Old man Ke is gone...... What do they want to do? Rongguang couldn't figure it out, and his tone was still surprised.
"Actually, it's inevitable, Rong. Before you went to the national youth team, the Chinese Football Association and the German side were already full of contradictions. Originally, the plan was to end the cooperation with the German side as soon as the World Youth Championships ended. But your appearance made the national youth team unexpectedly win the World Youth Championship, and there is no way to bring it up immediately. Because at that time, there was a lot of demand in China for Crawford to stay in office......"
"Since the voice is very loud, why should we go against the will of the people?" Glory still can't figure it out.
"Because the Football Association has reached an agreement with the Swiss side in advance, if the cooperation with Germany is not terminated, the Swiss side will not be able to deal with it. And...... How to say it, the Chinese Football Association will not consider public opinion when making many decisions, otherwise Chinese football will not be like this. They are not for the Chinese fans, they are for the leaders of the General Administration. Molly explained to Glory that she felt sad when she said this.
"Damn!"
Hearing this explanation, Rongguang couldn't help but curse a foul word.
"I'm still waiting for Old Man Ke to lead us to the Beijing Olympics, and now it's no fun, right?" Rong Guang asked after scolding.
"......" Molly faced with such a question, she really didn't know how to answer. She knew that her answer would disappoint Rongguang, but she couldn't tell Rongguang that there was still hope for Crawford to coach the Olympic team again......
"Uh...... I'm afraid so, glory. ”
"Okay, I've got it." Glory nodded, but his voice was cold and made Molly feel a little weak.
"You called here to ask me what I think about this, Sister Mo?"
"Uh, ah...... Yes, it is...... However, if it's inconvenient......" Molly already felt that she couldn't get any valuable answers.
But at this time, Rongguang interrupted her words directly.
"Old man Ke can't participate in the Beijing Olympics, so I won't participate in the Olympics either. That's how I see it. You can be in your newspaper, Sister Mo. There is no need to explain it to me tactfully, this is my attitude and opinion. ”
Molly holds her phone and is dumbfounded!
She really didn't expect Rongguang to react so much to Crowchen's resignation!
She knew that the relationship between Glory and Crawford was good, but she didn't think it would be so good.
Participating in the Olympics, how many players are pursuing?
The World Cup and the Olympic Games are two of the most important global events for Chinese football. The Chinese Olympic team has put in so much effort before, and only broke into the 1988 Seoul Olympics in 1987. None of them succeeded.
This time, taking the opportunity of hosting the Olympic Games on home soil, the Chinese Olympic team can participate as the host, which can be regarded as a way to save the country.
Who wouldn't want to attend this event on their doorstep?
Countless people have cut their heads and want to drill into it, get the qualification to participate in the Olympics, and if they participate once, they can increase their worth a lot.
But the glory ...... I actually closed the door to the Olympics in person!
"That...... Glory, I know you're angry right now, so think about it......"
"No, I'm calm, Sister Mo. I'm not angry at all. As if to prove that he was really not angry, Rong Guang smiled when he said this.
But Molly made up her mind that she would never publish it first, even though she knew that if it was published, her newspaper would become the focus of national fans and its sales would increase significantly.
But to do so will also roast the glory on the fire.
has just led the national youth team to win the World Youth Championships, which has made Rongguang popular in China, and everyone is looking forward to him participating in the Olympic Games. If we can replicate the miracle in the Netherlands in Beijing and lead the national Olympic team to win the Olympic gold medal, it will definitely be the most colorful stroke of Chinese football and the ardent hope of all Chinese fans.
But at this time, Rongguang announced that he would not participate in the Olympics...... I'm afraid it will be a heavy blow to his image in the minds of fans!
It is absolutely detrimental to glory.
So Molly didn't intend to let the glorious words go away.
※※※
Molly didn't understand why Glory had such a big reaction because of Crowchen's dismissal.
That's because she doesn't know enough about the relationship between Rongguang and Crowchen.
Rongguang has always called Crawford "Old Man Klauchen", of course, when he first met Crawford, he didn't call him that. Later, after getting along with Crouchen for a long time, I felt that this old German man had a very cute side, so he simply changed his name to "Old Man Crowchen". Under his leadership, the players of the team called their head coach - no one dared to do so before......
This shows the feelings of the players of this national youth team for the head coach Crawford.
Although Krauchen's training was very hard, under the leadership of Krauchen, the national youth team made a historic breakthrough and won the World Youth Championships. And if it weren't for Crawford, this champion, maybe the young people of the national youth team would not have counted on it in their lives.
So everyone remembers Crawford's affection.
Glory also has a lot of affection for Crowchen. As the captain of the team, he has the most contact with Crowchen and knows who Crawford is.
He saw Crowchen's stubbornness and persistence, and he liked a coach like Crawford very, very much. Because he himself is actually a stubborn and persistent person, and he cherishes the same sex. Naturally, he admires a coach like Crowchen as much as he admires himself.
When I first came to the national youth team, I just felt that this was an opportunity to brush up on my presence in the Chinese market. But with the contact with Old Man Ke, he gradually changed his mind.
He still remembered what Old Man Ke said to himself when he decided to hand over the captain's armband to himself.
"I let you be the captain, not because you are the most famous, the strongest and the most powerful in this team. Fame and strength, that's not the condition for choosing a captain. I chose you to be the captain because I think you have what it takes to take this group of lads where they've never been and where they've never been, to what they've never achieved. You have the ability. ”
Rong Guang was surprised at the time: "But I never ...... I've been a captain, I don't know how to be a ......."
He's telling the truth, since his debut, whether in Sao Paulo or at Werder Bremen, he has never been a captain, let alone the first captain who wears the captain's armband in a game, he has not even been the second or third captain.
The identity of "captain" has nothing to do with him at all.
"Don't think too much about it, Rong. You don't need to be too deliberate about leading your teammates, you still train for the game how you usually train. If you don't know what to say, don't speak, just show your strength with your actions. When you've done enough, people can't ignore what you've done. Sometimes actions are more powerful than words. ”
After listening to Old Man Ke's words, Rongguang was thoughtful.
Crouchen patted him on the shoulder: "I'm sure you can do it, Rong." You have the magical power to change the people around you. I've been watching you for a long time, and I'm very confident in my vision. ”
When he said this, Rongguang suddenly noticed that the tone and demeanor of the old man's speech made him feel a little familiar......
Where have you seen it?
That's right, Godot!
That big fat man!
He patted himself on the shoulder and said, "You are a genius, do you know the way, Rong?" You're a genius! I can't go wrong with my vision! ”
Rongguang nodded: "Okay, I'll be the captain!" ”
Everyone has seen the rest of the story, and the entire world has seen it.
Rong Guang took the captain's armband and led this group of young people who had never been favored by others to win the world championship!
But now such an excellent coach is out of the way because of the Football Association's scandalous affairs!
Rongguang realized that the leaders of the Football Association probably never had the future of Chinese football in mind.
Then don't waste your time with them.
So he made a decision that seemed crazy to others.
It's never an impulse, it's not an emotional outlet.
He took this decision very seriously.
※※※
After hanging up the phone, the expression on Rongguang's face was still very serious, and Debora was very curious, but Rongguang had been talking to Molly on the phone before, and she couldn't ask.
Now she can finally ask the doubts in her heart: "What happened, Rong?" ”
"Crouchen left. I'm not going to go to the Olympics anymore. ”
The first sentence was not yet significant, but the second sentence startled her.
"What?"
As Rongguang's agent, she has worked hard to understand Chinese football, and naturally knows very well what the Olympic football competition means to Chinese football.
The success at the World Junior Championships has made Rong Guang shake a lot of endorsement contracts from China. If he also performs well in the Olympics, Rongguang can let the entire Chinese market support him......
But Glory actually refused!
"Are you crazy?" Her question blurted out.
"Nope. I'm not crazy. Rongguang said calmly.
"Then why did you make such a decision?"
"Because I don't like the Football Association." Rongguang said.
"Then you don't have trouble with money......"
"It's okay if you don't make this money. They drove away Old Man Ke, and I still have to help them earn political achievements, so I won't do it. Glory pouted. I thought that winning the World Junior Championship would allow Old Man Ke to stay and continue to lead us. But now it seems that if I win the championship again, I can't change their minds. In that case, I won't play with them. ”
"But Chinese fans will be disappointed or angry......"
"I've already brought them a World Junior Championship, so it's impossible for me to take the World Cup as well, right? I think I'm so funny. Rong Guang said expressionlessly.
Debora still wanted to persuade Glory, but she thought that she would not be his agent in a long time, so what did she do with this heart?
So she shook her head: "Well, if you've made your decision and won't go back, I don't have a problem. ”
"Of course I won't go back." Rongguang said.
After hearing that Old Man Ke had resigned, Rongguang was about to be blown up, so he didn't care about the possible consequences of his decision.
He felt that he could not change the decision of the Football Association, and that he could not get Crawford back to lead them to the Olympics with a single phone call.
When the Football Association made this decision, it did not consult their players, and did not take into account the positions and feelings of the players.
He can only express his anger and opinion against the Football Association through this seemingly stupid approach.
It's kind of like a suicide attack and putting yourself in it.
But now Glory can only think of such a way.
Who told the Chinese players to be soft-spoken?
Even if Rong Guang is a player with a very important status and great influence among Chinese fans, in fact, the Football Association doesn't care about him at all.
Okay, do you think you'll be all right if you get rid of Old Man Ke?
Then you can play with yourselves!
