Fox in the Penalty Area

"Old Hong, what is the Football Association's arrangement for me now? The top 12 match is about to start. Should I lead the team to play, or not?"

Shi Wuyin blocked Hong Renjie outside the team leader's office, cut straight to the point, went straight to the point, and asked his own question directly.

"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 higher-ups are also hesitating now..."

"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 are 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, with a look of " If you don't give me an explanation today, I won't let you go."

It's no wonder he did this, after all, the top 12 is getting closer and closer, and the national team is about to reconvene players for training and preparation. The Football Association did not give him any instructions, and he was at a loss as to what to do next.

You can't continue to be so muddled, can you?

Taking advantage of the days when the national team was not playing, he and Li Zhifei flew around the country to inspect the players' status, conduct tactical analysis and arrange training plans.

But these are all on paper. It's meaningless if it doesn't land in the end.

"Old Hong, I'm not asking for a name for myself, nor for treatment. I came to you today because things really can't be dragged on. If you don't give me an explanation, how can I lead the team? Who are the people called by the national team? Which people are not called, I say it counts? Do you want me to do nothing and just let it take its course and wait in the position of head coach of the national team. I will give him the office when the Football Association finds a new head coach ?”

"Xiao Shi, don't worry, I understand what you mean. But I didn't lie to you, the Football Association is really hesitating...I don't hide from you, they really haven't found a suitable candidate right now, so they just want to... Let you lead the team to play in the top 12 first, make do with it..."

Shi Wuyin's eyes widened: "Can the national team make it to the World Cup?"

"Uh..." Hong Renjie was stunned speechless.

"Old Hong, don't tell me what is gone. Didn't the Football Association find a suitable successor? I am willing to be the successor, and 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 quickly waved his hands: "No need, Xiao Shi, there is no need... There is no law in our country that stipulates that if you fail to lead the national team to the World Cup, you will be imprisoned. The Football Association is indeed considering letting you lead the team to the end of the game." Twelve rounds..."

Having said that, he paused for a moment, then looked around,

He lowered his voice and said to Shi Wuyin: "But internal opinions are not unified... so it's a bit stiff."

"Then we can't go on like this forever, we have to come up with an explanation. It's okay to let me be a firefighter, but give me the corresponding power, right? If you don't give him a water gun as a firefighter, how can you fight the fire? If the Football Association agrees, I will Now that the national team is making adjustments, I have no objections. Didn't I report this matter before?" Shi Wuyin asked.

"Your report..." Hong Renjie gritted his teeth in worry. "According to what you said, several old players from the national team have to be removed from the team. The impact at this moment is not very good..."

"So if we can't get out of the line, the impact will be fine?"

"That's not what you said. If you cleared out of the team, you also didn't qualify?"

"I'm in charge!"

Hong Renjie shook his head: "You can't afford this responsibility, Xiao Shi."

"Then find someone who can take charge, and I'll quit." Shi Wuyin turned around and left after speaking.

Hong Renjie quickly pulled him back again: "Hey, Xiao Shi, let's talk if we have something to say...don't do this."

"Then what else can I do, Lao Hong? You know me, I am sincerely for the good of 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, looking around Players, study the opponent’s tactics... Am I doing it for my own self-interest? I don’t like it, Lao Hong. The national team salary that the Football Association gives me is not as good as the annual salary that the club invites me to coach. I Why do you want to come to the national team? Not because you see Hu Lai, these young people, they have hope, they should not miss the opportunity of the World Cup!"

Shi Wuyin became more and more excited as he talked, he broke away from Hong Renjie's hand.

"Exchanging blood will cause turmoil, of course I know. But not changing blood will only lead to death! For the benefit of the national team and the future, what is the reputation of a few old players? Did Zhao Kangming get less scolded back then? How bad is his reputation? Has he been beaten to the ground? No, what achievements have he made now? The entire Shining Star is almost becoming a holy place for young Chinese players! Could those old players be more wronged than Zhao Kangming? Those who should quit the national team, what does it mean to not leave? Isn’t it because the identity of the international football team can help them ask for more salary from the club? The national football team is 10 million a year, and the non-national football team is 5 million a year, which is a difference of one times. But they can’t drag down the national team because of their personal desires! They earn enough money in a year for ordinary people for several lifetimes, can’t they be so greedy? If they earn less than a few million, they can’t afford the car loan and housing loan? How much less? Millions of families can't uncover the pot?"

Seeing that Shi Wuyin was really angry, Hong Renjie could only nod repeatedly: "Yes, yes, you are right..."

"Besides, I made the decision to exchange blood. I also gave the list of who should be cleared out of the team. If the Football Association has any worries and scruples, just push all the responsibilities to me. It doesn't matter if the media wants to blackmail me. .As long as you give me the right to choose and employ people, and let me reorganize the national team, I don’t care how people scold me. The big deal is that after leading this national team, I will not be in China anymore. 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 the wicked. I am not afraid of Shi Wujian, even if you blame me, I will do it for the wicked. As long as I can lead the team to the top 12. Even if it is true If you can’t get into the World Cup, as long as these young players can experience 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 wonderful! But Luo Kai and Chen Xingyi can only stay in China. If they can also go to Europe, what will our national team look like then? Lao Hong, when I was the head coach of the Olympic team, He said that I want to plant trees for Chinese football, I planted all the saplings alive, and handed them over to you, but you just put these small trees aside... Then what do I do as the head coach of the Olympic team? "

Hong Renjie raised his hands and signaled Shi Wuyin to stop talking: "Xiao Shi, stop talking. I know everything, I understand what you mean, and I have absolutely no doubts about your sincerity... Well, I will go find you today Above, no matter what, I will give you an explanation today."

Then he really didn't even enter his own office, turned around and walked in another direction.

When Shi Wuyin returned to his office, Li Zhifei ran up to him the moment he pushed the door open and asked impatiently, "How is it, how is it?"

"He promised to help me talk to the leader. Anyway, I have made my request clear. If I really disagree, then I will resign and leave." Shi Wuyin bypassed Li Zhifei and walked to his seat. Come down, "I don't care if I take the blame, but I have to do things. If you let me take the blame, then I'm not stupid."

"Yes, yes, no one is a fool." Li Zhifei turned around with a smile and leaned over, sitting half of his buttocks on the desk, "It doesn't make sense for us to waste time here. Then do you think how sure you are this time?"

Shi Wuyin shook his head: "I don't know either. I don't want to guess the meaning of the above. Anyway, let's wait for the news. If you agree to my suggestion, we will do it. If you don't agree, we will break up. When the time comes, Lao Li, you should go home Wash the dishes for sister-in-law?"

"Otherwise, it's still possible... who wants to wash the dishes?!" Li Zhifei suddenly looked at Shi Wuyin with wide eyes.

Shi Wuyin laughed loudly, and then comforted Li Zhifei: "It's okay, Lao Li. I'm still doing laundry at home."

"Hand rub?"

"Then where can I do it! Of course it's throwing the washing machine!"

"Then you have the nerve to say that you do laundry?"

"Throwing the dirty clothes into the washing machine, and taking the washed clothes out of the washing machine to dry, I also paid for my labor. Isn't it counted as laundry?"

"What a fart!" Li Zhifei said angrily.

"Don't be angry, Lao Li. I mean, I suggest you buy a dishwasher. Doesn't washing dishes become the same as washing clothes for me?"

They bickered habitually until Shi Wuyan's cell phone rang suddenly without warning.

The two looked at the mobile phone on the table at the same time.

Caller:

Old Hong.

They both looked back at the same time and looked at each other.

pick up!

Li Zhifei signaled Shi Wuyin with his eyes.

Shi Wuyin seemed to be a little suspicious because Lao Hong called so soon, and frowned, not daring to answer.

Li Zhifei next to him was in a hurry. He hung his palm over Shi Wuyin's phone, and when a small palm icon appeared on the screen, he pressed it down.

The incoming call was connected, and the speaker was automatically turned on at the same time.

So Hong Renjie's voice came from the speaker of the mobile phone: "Hello, Xiao Shi?"

"Hey, Lao Hong, what's the matter?" Shi Wuyin asked cautiously.

Don't look at the impassioned speech he made when he went to Hong Renjie just now, and he moved it with emotion and reason. When he came back, he treated Li Zhifei like a bachelor, very free and easy. But when he really had to face it, he hesitated instead.

"Xiao Shi, just do as you say." Hong Renjie's first sentence stunned the two people in front of the phone, "But you have to show some results. The two matches between the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia are the best. At least you have to win one game. Otherwise, you will dismiss the get out of class, regardless of whether there is a suitable candidate, you will dismiss the get out of class, understand?"

Shi Wuyin's voice was 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: "Don't, don't. You don't need a military order, you're done, let's drink and eat meat together. If it doesn't work, let's pack up and leave together."

"Ah? Old Hong, you..." Shi Wuyin was surprised.

"I'll give you insurance. That's all, you can hurry up and do your work, I'm going to a meeting..." After Hong Renjie finished speaking, he hung up the phone in a hurry.

In front of the mobile phone, Shi Wuyin 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 phone.

"What are you doing?" Shi Wuyin saw Li Zhifei open a shopping app.

"Let me see which dishwasher is better. I'll buy it for your sister-in-law. I won't go back so soon. Your sister-in-law hurts her hands by washing too many dishes..."

Seeing Li Zhifei lowering his head and focusing on comparing the shopping pages, Shi Wuyin grinned.
