Chapter 96 Meeting of the new coach

The evening of June 11.

The news hall of Chengdu Sports Center has never been so loud and noisy.

"That woman over there, stand back!"

"What about you! Don't block the safe passage!"

"Which TV station are you from? This kind of equipment cannot be brought in!"

Forty or fifty security personnel were sweating profusely to maintain order, but the number of journalists ten times that of them still made the venue chaotic.

CCTV reporter Yang Yiming is sitting in the front row right now, and colleagues from Xinhuanet and People's Daily Online are sitting next to him. This may be the only area that is relatively quiet.

"What questions are you preparing for today?"

He looked at the small notebooks in the hands of his colleagues with a little curiosity, but the other party responded with a smile of no comment.

He still wanted to take a break, but he felt that the atmosphere in the whole venue suddenly became more restless!
"Crack, Kick!"

"Clap clap clap!"

As the side door was pushed open, all kinds of voices exploded in the air in an instant!

It was not cold in the city just entering November. Chen Hao, dressed in casual gear, stepped onto the rostrum. The person who appeared with him was the top leader of the Chinese Football Association, Cai Zhonghua.

The young Secretary-General took on the role of press officer:

"I'm glad to see so many friends from the news media can participate in this press conference. To be honest, there are still many media applying before we enter the venue. However, due to the safety restrictions of the venue, we can only pass the broadcast. For broadcasting to other media, we ask for the understanding of the media friends.”

He flipped through the paper in his hand:

"Today's press conference has three items. First, let's talk about the first item. Mr. Cai Zhonghua, chairman of the Chinese Football Association, will officially announce that Mr. Chen Hao will be the head coach of the national team and give an important speech."

Cai Zhonghua, who had his hair combed back, was refreshed. He recalled the press conference when he was elected as the chairman of the Football Association. It seemed that there were not so many people.

After reading the official letter of appointment, Cai Zhonghua spoke highly of Chen Hao's character and strength in his speech, firmly believing that this young head coach can lead the national team out of the predicament and create history and miracles.

After that, he and Chen Hao warmly shook hands under the insinuation of countless flashing lights, and the press conference entered the second agenda.

Chen Hao, who has just officially served as the head coach of the national team, made a statement to more than 500 reporters:

"I often hear people comment that the reason why Chinese football does not have good results is because of flaws in the social system, because the cost of playing football is too high, and because the mass base is not good. These analyzes are of course very reasonable, but this is not our The reason why you can lose to Thailand and Hong Kong with peace of mind and without blush."

He looked at the reporters with different expressions and shrugged his shoulders slightly:

"Forget those dark memories, starting today, Chinese football will open a new chapter, because I have arrived!"

Although his manifesto was powerful, most reporters and viewers did not buy it.

For decades, the Chinese Football Association has hired countless experienced coaches. Whether it is a world-renowned coach or a local coach who is considerate of the national conditions, almost none of them can get a "good death". Now it is a 17-year-old boy, As long as it is a human being with a normal IQ, no one will think that he can change the world.

It is easy to score ten goals in a game, but as the coach of the Chinese team...it is definitely not that simple!
Another voice has long been produced on the Internet:
"Of course Chen Hao is invincible, but at least he needs to cooperate with his teammates to maximize his power.

What is their configuration in Atletico Madrid?What is the configuration in the Chinese team?
Serving as the head coach of the Chinese team... is likely to be the only stain in Chen Ritian's life!
Just like Ronaldo and Messi's national team!
Oh no, Portugal and Argentina can still enter the final of a major cup match, and the Chinese team can't even enter the group stage now! "
-
The last item on the agenda is questions from the media.

More than 500 journalists, of course, it is impossible for everyone to get a chance. The first one to stand up is the official representative of People's Daily Online:

"We all know that after Perrin dismissed get out of class, the situation of the national team in the top 40 matches has reached the most critical moment. What made you recommend yourself and take over this heavy burden?"

This is just an expected topic, Chen Hao nodded to this calm and experienced reporter, and then replied:

"If it wasn't for the critical situation, how could I get such an opportunity?"

The reporter was startled for a moment, then smiled knowingly.

Indeed, if Perrin led the team to triumph, how could the Chinese Football Association fire him?

Just listen to Chen Hao continue to say:

"Perrin is a good coach, but his character is not suitable to be our commander, and his tactics are difficult to bring out the best of the national team players. In fact, based on my understanding of this national team, even if Without my existence, with our strength, we should be able to easily advance to the top twelve, instead of standing on the edge of the cliff. It is because of this confidence that I can take over this unique opportunity without any scruples. Task."

A reporter from Xinhua Net asked a second question:

"Has the Football Association set any goals for you?"

Chen Hao smiled:
"I put forward two goals in the plan, one is a fixed goal, that is to lead the team to win the 2018 World Cup, and the other is a dynamic goal, if I lose any game in the qualifiers, I will resign unconditionally."

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked!

Even Cai Zhonghua himself was very surprised.

Yang Yiming finally couldn't help raising his hand:

"Is this condition too harsh?"

Chen Hao shrugged his shoulders:

"Not at all. I like this kind of challenge. Every game may become the final swan song. This can motivate me to use my best state to meet every opponent."

The reporter's questions became more and more pointed:
"Football is round. No one can remain unbeaten forever. Have you ever considered that if you fail to win a certain game, does that mean that you will immediately throw such a mess to the next successor?"

Chen Hao slightly raised his eyebrows:
"To be honest, I really haven't thought about it, what does failure mean?"

Someone stood up again:
"You just said that your goal is to win the World Cup in 2018, but we all know that football is a sport that takes time to create results, and there are never any shortcuts. To hit the championship, I really want to know, where does your confidence come from?"

Chen Hao looked at the reporter. Facing the questioning, not only did he not get angry, but he smiled amiably:
"I understand your feelings very well. From the perspective of ordinary fans, the strength of the Chinese football team is at least one light-year away from the world championship. Even entering the World Cup is an unattainable luxury, but... this book That’s why I chose the Chinese team.”

He stretched out a finger and tapped his chest hard:

"If there are no results and facts, no amount of words will appear weak, so there is no need for us to continue the debate at today's press conference. You only need to point the camera at me and this team, and you will be able to get The final answer!"
