Chapter 8: Private grudges (Fourth update, please give me a monthly vote!)

It would be wrong if the other party was so mysterious to arouse Chen Yingxiong's curiosity. Seeing that the other party had not even explained the purpose of the visit, and he didn't know what to do, he was too lazy to guess what the other party was looking for him. He had too much trouble every day, so he still had time to play guessing games with others. It was like those who called and didn't say who they were, but the first sentence was: "Guess who I am?" When he met such a person, Chen Yingxiong directly scolded: "You are an idiot, low-key, stupid!" and then hung up the phone.

So Chen Yingxiong's reply to Dracula was: "No! He is hiding his head and mind, and he doesn't even dare to say anything. He must be not a good guy!"

Dracula only followed Chen Yingxiong's lead. Chen Yingxiong said he would not see him, so he would not see him. He didn't ask why. It would make no sense to ask such things. Could it be that if you ask why, you can change your mind? He wouldn't think so.

Anyway, he refused the other side through his sponsor.

This matter ended for Chen Yingxiong and Dracula - so what they thought.

Then Chen Yingxiong followed his teammates to board a direct flight from Liverpool to Guangzhou. Originally, there was no direct flight from Liverpool to Guangzhou, so the Liverpool Club contacted a private airline through Standard Chartered Bank, which sponsored the event, and rented a chartered flight for the morning. This at least avoided the fatigue of the round-trip flight.

At the same time in China.

"He refuses to meet?"

In a well-decorated room, a middle-aged man was making a phone call, and a surprised voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Yes, he refused." The middle-aged man nodded with a little disdain on his face.

"This..." The opposite side seemed a little at a loss. Obviously, the reaction of the person they were looking for was beyond their expectations. It was also said that the Chinese Football Association was willing to contact a player on its own initiative, but you dared to refuse and didn't want to get involved in the Chinese football circle, right? The other side asked again: "How did you contact him?"

“I told his sponsor through my business partners, and then told his agent by his sponsor…”

"Something goes around..." There seemed to be a little dissatisfied in his tone.

The expression on the face of the middle-aged man here was even more disdainful and impatient. "Didn't you tell me to hide, to be low-key, or not to attract the attention of the media? Of course I can only do this. Do you also want me to run over and tell him that the people from the Football Association are planning to talk to him about the national team?"

"Okay OK, okay, I won't talk about this anymore. What should I do now?"

The middle-aged man originally wanted to shrugg the shoulders and spread his hands and say "cold salmon", but he was indeed happy to see Chen Yingxiong play for the country, so he still had to pinch his nose and give him some advice.

"I think... aren't they coming to Guangzhou? Why don't you send someone to Guangzhou to find him directly."

"This...is probably not suitable?"

"What's wrong with this?" The middle-aged man was so angry that he suppressed his anger.

Maybe I heard the resentment of the middle-aged man, and the tone on the other side of the phone quickly became more enthusiastic and anxious: "Oh, Lao Wan, you know our difficulties too... This, there are too many negative hypes about us in the media now. Before this matter is confirmed, I really don't want to know any news for those media to avoid them hype randomly. If we send someone, I'm afraid... all the media in Guangzhou City in those days! We have a private relationship, and I can trust you, so I'll ask you to help you privately... Our Football Association is really not in contact... You go and find his words and opinions. If we can talk, we will come forward to talk to him..."

After hearing this, the middle-aged man sighed: "Forget it, I'll help you this time. Who made me fucking unwilling to give up on Chinese football..."

"Haha, thank you so much, Lao Wan! I'll treat you to dinner next time I come to Beijing!"

"Come on, come on." The middle-aged man, known as "Lao Wan", was unwilling to say more meaningless nonsense. He hung up the phone directly.

After hanging up the phone, Wan Zong showed a look of disdain on his face.

"I offended people at the beginning, but now I want people to go back but I can't put it down. I really have to be a bitch and have to set up a archway! Chinese football, I just hope these people... I don't know if I can see some hope before I die!"

After venting his dissatisfaction, he played with the martial walnut in his hand and began to think about how to reconnect with Chen Yingxiong...

Although the person said something that was not nice, he still made some sense, that is, he had too many bends to find Chen Yingxiong... It is really not very open and upright to see him.

Forget it, I have to go there myself. Fortunately, Guangzhou is its own nest, so it shouldn't be difficult to meet Chen Yingxiong? He also knew the Chinese person in charge of Liverpool China Tour. He asked him to bring a message and asked Chen Yingxiong out for a meal and then talked about the matter... As for whether the talk was successful, he would not guarantee it. Everyone knows how fucked Chen Yingxiong's temper is. On the first day of joining the National Olympic Team, he was fired from the team for beating Zhang Wei, the captain of the national team during training. Who is Zhang Wei? Wan Zongquan

A Guangzhou person knows it very well because Zhang Wei is playing football in Guangzhou Evergrande. Chen Yingxiong was still an unknown young man in the Chinese national team at that time. He was a rookie and dared to attack the top player of the national football team. And after being fired from the team, most people swallowed their anger and returned to the club with their tails in their arms. Chen Yingxiong did not. He also held a special press conference. At the meeting, not only did the video of the incident be released, but also fired fiercely at the National Olympic Team, Dujkovic, and the Chinese Football Association, and criticized it. The Chinese Football Association was very passive and ugly.

He and Liangzi from the Football Association also formed this. Many people thought that it was what Nan Yong said, "With me being in power for one day, Chen Yingxiong would never want to join the national team." So Chen Yingxiong only had personal grudges with Nan Yong. But no one thought about it. If it weren't for the collective agreement of the Football Association, how could Nan Yong say such things?

This is not a personal grudge between Chen Yingxiong and a certain person at all, it is a personal grudge between Chen Yingxiong and the Chinese Football Association.

Why has Chen Yingxiong not been recruited into the national team by the Football Association? Camacho once publicly said that Chen Yingxiong is a very outstanding player and he doesn't understand why he cannot enter the national team.

Of course he didn't understand, just like he didn't understand why the Chinese Football Association was still under the jurisdiction of the General Administration of Sports of China, and why there were both the Football Association and the Football Management Center.

Chen Yingxiong offended not Nan Yong, but the entire system.

For people within the system, Chen Yingxiong likes to talk nonsense, behaves erraticly, has horrible tattoos, there are many negative news, and there is no traditional Chinese virtue in them... In their jargon, Chen Yingxiong is a "disobedient person". Since he is disobedient, it is difficult to control. Since it is difficult to control, then we should not do it.

In the Chinese sports world, there are not many people like Chen Yingxiong, but there are definitely. For example, Li Na, who plays tennis, is a "disobedient person". At that time, because she criticized the coach for her low level and was irresponsible, she offended a large group of people in the system. Later, she simply left a note and announced her withdrawal from the national team and ran away. Then she was ordered by the Chinese Netcom Association that Li Na, who had no ball to play, would announce her retirement and then go to study the Piao Astronomy Ball. If it weren't for the Hubei team's absence in the National Games, if it weren't for the new leader of the Netcom Association, I'm afraid Li Na will no longer play with a racket.

In this way, Li Na, who returned to the Chinese team, still did not change her temper, which made the Internet Association feel a headache. It is better to go solo now...

So there is nothing to be surprised about the grudge between Chen Yingxiong and the Football Association. This is something that will inevitably happen in this system. The system hopes that Chinese athletes are obedient and good kids, actively cooperate and obey commands, and do whatever the leaders ask them to do. They will do whatever they want, and sacrifice for the team anytime and anywhere, with the overall situation first. Such characteristics are particularly obvious in the gymnastics team, diving team, table tennis team, and badminton team. However, these events are traditional Chinese advantageous projects, and it is understandable to do so, because doing so can produce results.

However, in non-advantage projects, Chinese leaders are originally laymen and low-minded. If they follow their commands, they will only get worse and worse. Just as Li Na criticized the coach for being responsible for the training of many tennis players alone, it is impossible to achieve targeted training and does not have a sufficiently responsible attitude. In this way, if you still listen to the leader, you will only miss your future. A cowardly person may choose to endure, while a rebellious and arrogant person chooses to break the rules and compete with the system while finding a certain balance...

Li Na has now found a balance. She once benefited from the system, and now she is a decision made by the system.

So what about Chen Yingxiong?

When Liverpool arrived in Guangzhou, it was warmly welcomed at the airport.

Hundreds of Liverpool fans gathered in the airport pick-up hall and screamed excitedly when they saw the entire Liverpool team coming out of the VIP passage.

Especially when Chen Yingxiong appeared in front of everyone, the cheers from hundreds of people seemed to be able to overturn the ceiling of the airport...

"hero!!!"

"I love you, hero!!"

"I'm willing to give you everything I have, hero!"

"Hero! Whether it is Naples or Liverpool, we will always support you! We will follow you wherever you go!"

"Sign up, hero! I came here specifically from Henan!"

"Hero - Hero! Look here! Look here!"

"Can you take a photo with me, hero?" The enthusiastic fans attacked the human wall of defense formed by the security guards, and wanted to come up and hug Chen Yingxiong to take a photo. The security guards worked hard to maintain order under the push of the fans.

"Ahhhhhh! He looked at me! He smiled at me! So handsome! Ah--" The excited fan had fainted... There was a riot on the scene, but soon the fainted happy fan was dragged out by someone, and the scene returned to normal. The fans continued to scream loudly, expressing their love for Chen Yingxiong.

Some lucky guys were immediately surrounded by others after getting Chen Yingxiong's signature. Everyone expressed envy, jealousy and hatred. They also wanted to take a photo with the jersey signed by Chen Yingxiong to make up for their regrets.

Chen Yingxiong is the most popular star in the entire team.

Gerald was injured in previous training. He did not come with the team during this trip to China, while Suarez played in the Copa America for the Uruguay national team and did not come. So Chen Yingxiong is the biggest star in the team at present, and it is also a box office guarantee. If even Chen Yingxiong did not come, Liverpool's trip to China would be a bit miserable...

Fortunately, Chen Yingxiong can stand the influence of Gerald and Suarez, who are absent. In China, he is a well-deserved sports world no.1.

You should know that the people who came to pick up the plane were not all Liverpool fans. Although there were many people wearing Liverpool red jerseys, you can also see Chinese fans wearing Naples jerseys. They held up posters and slogans from Chen Yingxiong in Naples to express their love for Chen Yingxiong.

After seeing the crazy and warm atmosphere at the airport, his teammates at Liverpool were convinced by Chen Yingxiong's influence in China - this is the home court of the hero!

Scotter gave Chen Yingxiong a thumbs up: "You Chinese are so enthusiastic! You have such a great influence in China!"

Chen Yingxiong laughed.

He was also very proud. So many fans came for him, which made his vanity slightly satisfy.

After the team transferred from the airport to the hotel where they were staying, the hotel also arranged a brief lion dance welcome ceremony. Head coach Daglish was the first to get off the car. He was very interested in this ritual with Lingnan characteristics and touched the lion intimately with his hands.

The second person to get off the bus was Chen Yingxiong. The person who walked out of the airport passage and followed Daglish was also Chen Yingxiong. It was obvious that when Gerald was absent due to injury, Chen Yingxiong was pushed to the forefront by Liverpool. He is the representative of Liverpool now and is also the best way to please Chinese fans - everyone hopes that the person they like will be valued and has a high status.

Seeing Chen Yingxiong, the fans waiting in the hotel were in a commotion again, and even the lions were dancing around Chen Yingxiong...

After a lot of trouble, he finally settled down in his room. Before Chen Yingxiong could take a breath, he received a call from his agent Durcula.

"Are you in the hotel?"

"Yes, I just lay on the bed." Chen Yingxiong said.

"Well, do you remember the person I told you before? The Chinese who came to you through a sponsor."

Chen Yingxiong slapped his forehead and thought: "What's wrong?"

"He came to the door again, and this time he really came to the door. He is in Guangzhou and wants to meet you."
