Green Destroyer

Chapter 39 A Song of Ice and Fire

"Come on, Xiao Chen, sit down."

When Chen Hao entered the base, the first person to "interview" him was not the head coach, the Frenchman Perrin, but the deputy team leader Guo Bingyan.

This middle-aged man who has been up and down in the system for most of his life exudes a slightly corrupt bureaucratic atmosphere, which made Chen Hao frown.

But this does not affect his next actions.

He put two beautifully packaged red wines on the table:
"Leader Guo, this is my first time joining the national team. It is a local specialty I brought back from France. The taste is quite authentic."

Before leaving France, he consigned a batch of special products to his hometown, but his father was not used to drinking red wine, so he simply became a favor of water delivery, not only the leader of the national team, he also prepared a small amount for other teammates. Small specialty.

After all... these people will eventually become the green leaves behind him.

Guo Bingyan's originally tense cheeks loosened slightly, and he waved his hands quickly:

"Oh, you have a heart, but remember not to do this in the future...Come, let's sit down and talk."

Chen Hao just smiled and sat down on the sofa opposite him.

He didn't take the initiative to speak, because the other party immediately opened his mouth:
"You are an Internet celebrity now, and everyone on the Internet says that you are a once-in-a-century true genius in Chinese football, and the only hope for the national football revival, but you must maintain a clear understanding.

These media public opinions have always been like this. Today you have a bright moment, they can lift you up to the sky, and tomorrow if you are a little down, they can immediately knock you down!And a few feet to step on!As young people, you have to learn to protect yourself, talk less and learn more, and avoid being disturbed by media reporters. "

Chen Hao nodded:

"I know that the media in Europe is actually similar."

Guo Bingyan gently stroked the packaging of the red wine:

"According to what the leaders said, this game was originally just for you to feel the atmosphere of the national team, and you are not going to play. After all, you also know that this group of national teams has been working together for more than two years. There is no tacit understanding between…”

He ramblingly explained several aspects, but Chen Hao just sneered in his heart.

That's right, against mere Bhutan, even if it's an away game, even if you don't play, the Chinese team won't lose, right?
You recruited me just to feel the atmosphere in a game like this?
The team leader finally finished his one, two, three, four, five. If it was another player, he might have sent a smile and a heart.

But this time he obviously didn't get his wish.

Chen Hao was still sitting opposite him:

"Leader Guo, with the current level of the Chinese team, it's not that I want to cooperate with them, but everyone else should cooperate with me. Do you understand what I mean?"

Guo Bingyan was obviously stunned for a moment:
"What do you mean?"

After Chen Hao entered the door, although he didn't grovel and smile all over his face, he was still very polite, but now he straightened his back suddenly. This kind of change made him a little hard to accept.

"I didn't want to say these words so bluntly, but since you want me to speak clearly, I'll just say it bluntly, otherwise we will all feel very uncomfortable in the future, oh, mainly because I will feel very uncomfortable .”

Chen Hao leaned back on the sofa, without any humility towards the leader:

"Accepting the call-up of the national team is my respect for Chinese football. It does not mean that I have to unconditionally obey the orders of the Football Association, or a certain coach or team leader for no reason. You can say that I have no organization or discipline, and I have no sense of obedience. I don’t care about the overall situation, or even using a bigger hat to overwhelm me. If this national team doesn’t respect my opinion, I will reject all your calls from now on.”

Guo Bingyan's mouth twitched slightly:

"Do you think you can threaten the Football Association by playing a few good games in France? Have you stayed in a foreign country for so long that you have no brains? When I was working in the General Administration, you were not even a fertilized egg." Believe it or not, I just need to move my finger, and your career will be destroyed! You can’t even be a youth training coach! Do you remember Wang Moumou who played basketball? You can’t see what he looks like now Are you there?"

Chen Hao shrugged his shoulders:

"I really want to know, how can you destroy me? Can you command FIFA to ban me globally? No, you don't have the ability. The Chinese Football Association has no say in the Asian Football Association. How dare you go to FIFA to make trouble ?”

The middle-aged man's complexion seemed to become even uglier.

As a person in the system, he is of course more aware of the nature of his organization, which is ruthless and indifferent. It is self-centered internally and has no bottom line externally. Incredible black whistle...

What angered the fans the most was that for a certain period of time, after encountering black calls, what the Chinese Football Association did was not to investigate and collect evidence, to appeal to the higher authorities, and to uphold justice for its own people, but to use a "our Chinese Football Association is to lose power and humiliate the country" Said in a tone: "Don't waste your energy, let's have a good rest."

Such an institution that has no right to speak in Asia, how can he impose sanctions on a player thousands of miles away?
——I would like to insert a sentence here. The attitude of the Football Association seems to have changed in the past two years. It has begun to appeal to the higher authorities, and even dared to express its protest by absenting from the AFC meeting, although the result has not changed.

Chen Hao didn't finish his words:
"The only thing you can do is refuse to call me into the national team forever, but does it matter to me? No, not at all. Can you ban me from commercial endorsement activities worldwide? Probably even less likely .Or you can try to ban the broadcast of my European games nationwide? Honestly, I really can't imagine, how can you destroy me other than paying for murder?"

When Chen Hao finished speaking, he did not wait for the expected rage and tough showdown, but saw a good show of changing his face.

The face of the middle-aged man returned to normal at some point, and he even showed a bit of ashamed wry smile:

"Xiao Chen, it may be that I have been working in the system for too long, and there is something wrong with the way I said it. You must have misunderstood me. Your strength has been recognized by European teams. It can even be said that the whole world It can be seen in my eyes, and I also resolutely rejected the invitation of the French team. It can be said that you are an outstanding representative of patriotic players. The Football Association must focus on training young players like you, so we directly skipped the National Youth and Olympic Games. An echelon that allows you to participate in first-team matches.

We originally meant that after all, you have just finished playing the league and you are still very tired. Bhutan is not a strong opponent, so it is good for you to take a break.But since you are eager to serve the country and want to integrate into the national team as soon as possible, I certainly respect your opinion 100%.How long do you think you are suitable to play, you tell me, I will arrange. "

Chen Hao shrugged his shoulders:

"I've always been a humble person. Since I'm just a rookie in the national team, let's play for seven or eight minutes. Isn't that too much to ask?"

Guo Bingyan shook his head again and again:
"Not too much, not too much! You are the golden boot winner of the five major leagues. The national team will build and develop with you as the core for the next 20 years. Our hope of hitting the 2018 World Cup is all on you... "

Chen Hao seemed not interested in continuing to listen, and interrupted him directly:

"By the way, can I be reimbursed for my return ticket?"

The team leader nodded again and again:
"Can be reimbursed, can be reimbursed! When it is convenient for you, just give me the bill and card number, and I will arrange financial reimbursement immediately."

Chen Hao stood up:

"Then trouble Leader Guo."

The middle-aged man quickly followed suit and stood up:

"No trouble, no trouble! You also have my phone number. In the future, if you have anything to do, just ask me directly. We must strengthen communication with each other, and we must avoid misunderstandings..."

After sending away the arrogant player, the middle-aged man's facial muscles collapsed instantly.

He looked at the two bottles of red wine that looked beautifully packaged but were actually only a few hundred dollars, and wished he could smash them all with one punch.

But he finally resisted the urge and sat down slowly.

Although he is only a department-level cadre and has no role in the capital, he has considerable power in the field of Chinese football. He has influence on the national men's and women's national teams, the Olympic team, and the national youth team. Millions, even tens of millions of domestic players, and the bosses of various clubs in the Chinese Super League should be polite and even flattering when they see him.

His former team leader Wei Shaohui has been in prison for many years, and the position of team leader has been vacant. As the first "successor", he has always been a deputy. He is unwilling to cause trouble at this time.

Chen Hao, this kid... has become famous like a rocket in the past month. Not to mention the Football Association and the General Administration of Sports, even the higher-level leaders have heard his name.

Guo Bingyan also remembers clearly, when the French Football Association wanted to invite Chen Hao to change his nationality, what unimaginable pressure the entire Football Association endured!

If Chen Hao really changed his team and played well in France, he, the deputy team leader in charge of recruiting, would definitely be the one to take the blame!
If it weren't for this era, he might be able to use the power of the Football Association to completely exclude this restless guy from the national team, or even allow him to play once, and then he will never be recruited for a lifetime, making Chen Hao sick for the rest of his life—according to FIFA regulations , A player who has played for one national team can never play for another national team.

As long as the leaders don't care, what does it matter if the national team can't beat Paramecia?
Winning or losing is a common matter in military affairs, let's work harder in the next game!
But now... I'm afraid he really can't use those old methods.

If he really abandons the most popular Ligue [-] golden boot in Europe, I am afraid that he will not only have to explain clearly to the leaders of the Football Association, but may also face the investigation of the Disciplinary Committee or the inspection team...

He could only sit in his room, drink the freshly opened red wine, and then utter the most vicious curse:
You can be arrogant this time, but as long as you Chen Ritian behaves like everyone else in the national team, and even brings this state back to the club, which will affect the next development in Europe, or even fall away, then this place... It is still my own world!

I won't let you join the national team, but I have to recruit you every time. China and Europe are so far away, and you can suffer from lumbar spondylosis just by flying. I don't believe that you can't die of exhaustion!
At that time, even a down-and-out player will be drowned by the spittle stars all over the world without even needing me to do it himself!

Guo Bingyan comforted himself complacently.

Well, this French red wine...is really delicious.
