Ren Pingsheng and Xu Genbao sat together in the restaurant of the Genbao base and tasted the most famous "Genbao wonton" and "3811 soup" in the base.

"This wonton is delicious, those children love to eat it, it's better than the time-honored brand of Hanhai, you can taste it more." ”

Xu Genbao introduced diligently.

Ren Pingsheng looked at the plate of fragrant wontons, on the one hand, out of politeness, on the other hand, he was also curious to pick up the chopsticks, picked one up and put it in his mouth, and when he bit it, the skin was thin and the meat was tender, full and material, fresh and springy, and the entrance was not greasy, it was really delicious.

"Delicious, really tasty. ”

Ren Pingsheng praised while not stopping in his mouth, and ate several more.

Xu Genbao had a proud look on his face, and he explained:

"I only have four kinds of fillings for this wonton, fresh shepherd's cabbage, pork, and mushrooms and open ocean (note: dried shrimp), the key is to look at the proportion of the filling, as well as the amount of seasoning, and the strength of the filling, to beat it hard until it is sticky, and the wonton is delicious. ”

Xu Genbao said as he stretched out his hand to show Ren Pingsheng.

"In the first few years of the establishment of the base, it was indeed relatively simple in terms of food, except for the rationing of milk, eggs and butter necessary for the growth of the players, other varieties were very monotonous. “

"I don't think the situation is right, so I finally let these children train scientifically and let them eat those junk food, how can I do it. So I remembered the big wontons with shepherd's cabbage that I learned when I was in the army, I made the ingredients myself, the stuffing myself, and the wontons with the coach and the children, and everyone thought it was delicious. The children like to eat, and they eat every meal, and at most, they eat 50 of them alone. “

Xu Genbao said, stretching out five fingers and shaking, his face was full of smugness, like an old child.

"In this way, this wonton has become the signature of our base, and many people come here to visit and try our wontons. ”

Similar to "Genbao wonton", the birth of "3811 soup" is also closely related to the nutritional needs of these little players, Xu Genbao designed the ingredients of this soup by himself, with 3 old hens, 8 wild small soft-shelled turtles and 11 catties of pork ribs stewed together, delicious and nutritious.

"You taste, you taste, you don't add any condiments, so fresh that your eyebrows fall off!"

Listening to Xu Genbao's introduction of flying colors, Ren Pingsheng drank "3811 soup" and ate "Genbao wontons" at the same time, and deeply felt the difficult and lonely development history of Genbao base over the years.

Although Xu Genbao never complained about hardship on the surface, he always looked like he didn't care.

But judging from the fact that he spent a lot of effort on these simple home-cooked ingredients to create a unique delicacy to adjust the taste of the young players, so that the young players could eat more nutritious and healthy food, Xu Genbao really put his heart and soul into this football base and invested in these young players.

At the same time, Ren Pingsheng can also see that the economic predicament of Genbao Football Base is stretched.

Although Xu Genbao has full of enthusiasm and scientific training ideas, there is still a gap between the Genbao base and the world-class youth training base, Xu Genbao can make up for this gap with personal enthusiasm and experience, but if he wants to raise the level to another level, it is not just what he can do.

Ren Pingsheng pushed away the plate that had been eaten up in front of him, touched his somewhat swollen belly, and said in the most earnest tone:

"Coach Xu, you make a price, I will take over the base and the club and help you realize your dreams. ”

......

When Ren Pingsheng spoke, Xu Genbao was eating a wonton, and he was not surprised by the other party's words, because before this, the Hanhai City Sports Committee had already greeted him and knew the intention of Ren Pingsheng's trip.

Xu Genbao is not a person who is detached from social reality, he also learned about Ren Pingsheng's net worth and economic strength through his own network channels, as well as Ren Pingsheng's background in the Hanhai municipal arena, and has a preliminary assessment of his strength.

So when Ren Pingsheng made a request, Xu Genbao was not surprised, he was like no one, and after eating the wonton unhurriedly and chewing slowly, he picked up a napkin, dried his lips carefully, and then looked up, looked at Ren Pingsheng, and said softly:

"Mr. Xu, the base and the club are just a shell, and the most valuable thing in my hands is this group of players. They were like my own children, brought up by me, like my flesh and blood. If you want to take these children, I am very reluctant to give up, and it is like cutting my flesh, I am very uncomfortable. ”

Ren Pingsheng can understand Xu Genbao's mentality very well, being able to stick to this secluded island for 7 years is already a great achievement, and he has also brought out a bunch of promising players, Xu Genbao's reluctance is human nature.

"Coach Xu, because they are your children, you should let me take this plate. ”

Ren Pingsheng looked at Xu Genbao's eyes behind his light-colored glasses, and said slowly:

"Your achievements in youth training can be said to be the first person in Chinese football in the past decade. However, youth training is one thing, professional football is another. Since the beginning of the professionalization of the first A, all the championship teams are backed by strong conglomerates, Dalian has Wande, Qilu has energy, Yanjing has Zhongxin......"

"Without the help of capital, even if the East Asian team rushes to the Chinese Super League, they can only be busy for relegation every year, when the time comes, how many opportunities can these young people get to exercise? Without the support of capital, how much salary can these young people get, their parents send their children out for more than ten years, and the result can only get a few thousand yuan like office workers, do you think they can accept it?"

"Even if they can accept it now, what about the future? These young people will always have to get married, have children, start a family, and all of these things will need money. Without money, nothing can be done. ”

"Whether it's for these kids or for yourself, you should take my advice. ”

Although Ren Pingsheng's words are somewhat straightforward, the logic in his words is undeniably powerful.

Xu Genbao is a person with a strong personality, but he is not a stubborn person, in a sense, he has the natural economic acumen of the Hanhai people, so he will run the Genbao base in an orderly manner under various difficult conditions, and will bring the East Asian team to the current level.

Therefore, Xu Genbao knows very well that everything Ren Pingsheng said is correct, and it all points to the weaknesses of the Genbao base and the East Asian team.

Xu Genbao won the A-League championship when he led the team, and coached Dalian Wande, Hanhai Shenhua and other giant teams, knowing that the dominance of these strong teams in the domestic top league is inseparable from the support of the local government and large enterprise consortium behind it.

Under the leadership of Xue Genbao, although the East Asian team successfully entered the Chinese League, due to insufficient funds and other reasons, it was unable to introduce powerful foreign aid.

Now it has been almost a month since the start of the 2008 Chinese League, in the first three rounds of the game, the East Asian team only won 2 draws and 1 defeat, so far there is no victory, with today's situation, there is basically no hope of surpassing.

Moreover, these good seedlings of the East Asian team have attracted the attention of several big clubs in China, and they have made bids to dig up the youth training results of the root treasure base, if the East Asian team cannot make a new breakthrough for a long time, and the treatment of the players can not be improved, the loss of the essence of "Chongming Phase I" is predictable.

After so many years of hard work, in the end, he had to "make wedding clothes for others", which made Xu Genbao, who has always been arrogant, acceptable.

Under the weighing of the pros and cons of many parties, the introduction of powerful capital to take over this plate has become a path that Xu Genbao must take.

It's just that Xu Genbao still has a little concern in the end, he wants to know Ren Pingsheng's enthusiasm for the base and the club before making a decision.

So under Ren Pingsheng's expectant eyes, Xu Genbao spoke.

"Mr. Ren, how do you plan to develop the club? ”

When Ren Pingsheng heard this, he immediately understood Xu Genbao's thoughts, he smiled slightly, and said confidently:

"I invested 60 million yuan to buy the base and the club, and all the players. In addition, I will also invest at least 60 million yuan in the club every year to improve the strength of the team. Your position does not move, I do not interfere in your management, and your team is determined by you. I only have one request, to make this team China, no, it should be said to be the strongest team in Asia. ”

Looking at Xu Genbao's slightly constricted pupils behind his light-colored glasses, Ren Pingsheng said with confidence:

"Director Xu, what do you think of this condition?"

Xu Genbao quickly calculated in his mind, his investment in Genbao Base and East Asia Club over the years is about 10 million, according to Ren Pingsheng's bid, he can not only repay the original loan, but also have a lot of income, it can be said that Ren Pingsheng's offer is very generous.

Moreover, Ren Pingsheng also proposed that he would invest 60 million yuan in the development of the club in the next year, ignoring the impact of inflation, which was much higher than the investment of Dalian Wande. With the support of these capitals, it is no longer a problem for the East Asian team to surpass, and they can also work hard towards more ambitious goals.

The most important thing is that with Ren Pingsheng's financial support, Xu Genbao does not have to sell these excellent seedlings in his hands, and can build a Xu Jiajun based on "Chongming Phase I" according to his own needs, and make good achievements and fame in Chinese football, and he will not waste his efforts over the years.

Under the temptation of capital, Xu Genbao seems to see a better tomorrow for his players, as well as the future prospects of Genbao's base.

Xu Genbao had no doubts at this time, stood up, and took the initiative to stretch out his hand and said:

"Mr. Ren, a word is a certainty, I need your support in the future. ”

Ren Pingsheng smiled, shook Xu Genbao's rough and powerful hand, nodded and said:

"Coach Xu, the future of Chinese football is in our hands, let's work together. ”

The two of them looked at each other and laughed heartily.

Xu Genbao didn't take Ren Pingsheng's words too seriously, he thought it was just the boss's motivational words.

Only Ren Pingsheng himself knows best that this move he made at this time will not only change the fate of "Xu Genbao's children", but also have a huge impact on the pattern of Chinese football.

The future, here, has turned a new page.
