Chapter Fifty-Four: Death and Resurrection
Zhao Kangming discussed with Chen Mo in his office how the team would adjust next if Zhang Qinghuan was reimbursed for the season.
I heard a knock on the door outside.
"Come in."
After the door was pushed open, the two people in the room were a little surprised: "Hulai, what are you doing here?" ”
It was Hulai who pushed the door in.
Hu Lai smiled and said, "Director Zhao, Director Chen, I want to inquire about Zhang Qinghuan's injury...... How's it going? ”
His words surprised both coaches, and they looked at each other.
Zhao Kangming said: "I don't know the result yet. ”
Hulay was a little disappointed.
Chen Mo asked curiously, "Why are you so concerned about Zhang Qinghuan's injury, Hu Lai?" ”
Hu Lai scratched his head: "Didn't you say that you would persuade him to turn back?" ”
Both coaches were taken aback: "Are you really going to ......"
Hulai nodded: "Yes, I really want to save him." ”
Zhao Kangming and Chen Mo didn't know what to say.
At this moment, Zhao Kangming's mobile phone rang, and he picked it up: "Hey, Doctor Yang?" Yes, how to say? Zhang Qinghuan ......"
Hu Lai, who was standing in the office and hadn't left yet, heard Director Zhao say the name of "Zhang Qinghuan", and immediately pricked up his ears, and the person moved two steps forward slightly, wanting to eavesdrop on the content of the phone.
Zhao Kangming was concentrating on the phone and didn't see it. Chen Mo cast a glance at Hu Lai and noticed his small movements.
The phone calls continued.
"Oh, is that so? That's good, that's good......" Zhao Kangming was obviously relieved when he spoke.
Chen Mo and Hu Lai both stared at him, judging from his expression and tone, it seemed that it should be good news?
"Okay, thank you Dr. Yang, sorry for the trouble, okay, goodbye, keep in touch."
When Zhao Kangming hung up the phone, he saw two pairs of bright eyes staring at him.
Seeing that Chen Mo and Hu Lai both cared so much about Zhang Qinghuan, especially Hu Lai, he shouldn't care about this matter at all, and the relationship between him and Zhang Qinghuan didn't seem to be very good......
So he smiled at the two and said, "Doctor Yang said on the phone that Zhang Qinghuan's examination results came out, and the ligament was not torn. ”
Hearing him say this, Chen Mo also breathed a sigh of relief, but Hu Lai was still staring at Director Zhao.
"But it will take fifteen days of rest to get back on the pitch."
Fifteen days is two games that can't be played, but Chen Mo still nodded with satisfaction: "This is already a good result." Looking at his performance in the game yesterday, I finally have a little hope and hope. ”
"Well, in fact, this injury is related to his own lack of high-intensity training before, otherwise he could have avoided it in time, and his body reaction was still a little slower." Zhao Kangming nodded.
"Lao Zhao, Zhang Qinghuan has actually been training seriously for a month before this, although one month can't make up for the three years he lacks, but it's always a good trend. I think the club could reconsider his decision. This prodigal son...... It's finally going back, isn't it? ”
Chen Mo asked Zhao Kangming, but a young voice sounded beside him coldly: "No." ”
Zhao Kangming and Chen Mo found out that Hu Lai was still in the office and hadn't left...... And it was Hulai who spoke out against the assistant coach.
"What's wrong?" Chen Mo's eyes narrowed.
Of course, Hu Lai can't say that because he hasn't received a prompt from the system to complete the task, it is obvious that Zhang Qinghuan has not really turned back as a prodigal son.
Faced with the assistant coach's questioning, he could only say: "Coach Chen, how can it be so easy for a prodigal son to turn back?" Otherwise, Zhang Qinghuan's guy would have turned back eight lifetimes earlier...... Didn't he be honest for a long time after his first drunk driver? What happened? So it's too early to say that he's a prodigal son. ”
Chen Mo reflexively wanted to refute the kid in front of him, but he immediately realized that Hu Lai was right.
Zhao Kangming, who was beside him, also nodded slightly, and then suddenly asked, "Then how do you think the real prodigal son turned back?" I also know that the performance in a short period of time is not convincing. But now we're only two months away from the end of the season, in other words, we only have two months to look at him and then we have to decide whether to buy him out. Two months is not a short time, but it is not a long time, so is his performance in these two months a prodigal son's return? ”
Chen Mo glanced at his old partner in surprise, he actually asked Hu Lai this question very seriously, is this asking Hu Lai for help, or is he taking the school exam?
Hu Lai didn't expect the head coach to ask him seriously, he realized that Coach Zhao should not be joking with himself, so he pondered.
He actually didn't care if Zhang Qinghuan's performance in the past two months was considered a prodigal son, and judging this matter was not his purpose. His purpose is to make Zhang Qinghuan's prodigal son turn back - as long as I let him turn back, won't it be a prodigal son? The judging criteria? Of course, the system has the final say!
But how can he turn his prodigal son back?
Now that he's injured, will it have any emotional impact on him?
What was he thinking while lying in a hospital bed?
Will you regret your indulgence?
Will you be unwilling?
At this time, he suddenly thought of what Qin Lin said to him before, he commented on Zhang Qinghuan like this:
"Zhang Qinghuan was very confident in the past, but he was not arrogant. Now Zhang Qinghuan is very proud, but he is no longer confident. ”
Why should a person who is no longer confident be proud? How can you be proud?
It can only be a bluff, and it is in vain, right?
Such pride is more like a disguise...... Pretend to be very good, pretend that you are still that super genius......
He can only rely on this false pride to stand up in front of everyone.
What if all this pride of his was shattered?
After this thought popped into Hulai's mind, he couldn't suppress it, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible it became.
But how can you break his pride?
Hulay thought again of the fallen geniuses he had seen on that plane.
None of them were shocked when they were born, and everyone firmly believed that they would definitely have a bright future. As a result, for various reasons, it was so obscure, and then there was no news.
When I heard their names again, I either heard that they had retired or that they were in some social news.
It's embarrassing.
For example, there is such a Chinese player, who was the first Chinese player to join a European giant, and the transfer fee also set a record. Everyone was optimistic about his future in the big club, but until he retired, he failed to realize his talent.
In the second half of his career, for most of the time, he became synonymous with the phenomenon of "injured Zhongyong" in Chinese football, and he was ridiculed and insulted by an unknown number of people, and everyone changed their tricks to ridicule him with those jokes that were not there.
A hero who was once a hero in the minds of Chinese fans and a star of hope who was pinned on high hopes has just become a joke and a clown in the eyes of everyone. The only purpose of his existence seems to be to allow public opinion to vent their dissatisfaction with Chinese football.
Especially this super genius later fell to the point where he couldn't play in the middle league team, and he also went to participate in a plastic surgery variety show, with a stiff smile on his face that he didn't know if it was because of microplastic surgery or nervousness, and he was judged by others, just like watching a monkey in a zoo, and was watched by a national audience.
And at this time, the Chinese fans who had high hopes for him didn't even know whether to feel sad or funny.
This super genius finally announced his retirement when he turned thirty-one years old in ten days, I don't know how much relief and how unwilling he was in his heart at that time?
※※※
When Chen Mo was waiting a little impatiently, Hu Lai raised his head, he looked at Zhao Kangming and said, "I don't know what kind of performance in two months can be regarded as a prodigal son, but we can let his own real prodigal son turn back." ”
Zhao Kangming smiled and asked rhetorically: "How can I make his real prodigal son turn back." ”
"Director Zhao, does Zhang Qinghuan know the results of his diagnosis?" Instead of answering, Hulay asked a question.
"No, Dr. Yang has to get the club's consent before he can tell the player about the injury." Zhao Kangming shook his head and answered Hu Lai's question.
"Then tell Zhang Qinghuan that he is too seriously injured, not only this season, but all his subsequent professional seasons will be reimbursed!"
This time, Zhao Kangming's face showed a shocked expression, and Chen Mo next to him exclaimed: "What are you kidding, Hu Lai!" ”
"I'm not kidding, Director Chen. People like Zhang Qinghuan have always had a very high opinion of themselves and are too proud. He didn't listen to so many people who told him the pros and cons before, because he always felt that with his talent, if he was a little serious, he could play football that everyone cheered and praised - his previous experience seems to prove it. So it doesn't matter if you indulge now, he's still young, and he has time and opportunity...... But what if he knew his career was over? Hulay's mind was ripe, so he spoke out firmly.
When Chen Mo heard him say this, he also fell into thought.
Hulai continued: "Doesn't it say that 'a man is dying, and his words are good'? We can't let Zhang Qinghuan die, but for professional players, retirement is also death in a sense. If he knows that he is about to retire, can he shatter the false pride in his heart? Can he really start reflecting on his indulgences over the past few years? Can you reverse his mentality? After all, who would have thought that a talented player would retire before he was twenty-three years old? Zhang Qinghuan himself may never have thought of it. Under such a great change in life, will he die and come back to life? ”
Zhao Kangming was the first to recover from the shock, and after listening to Hu Lai's words, he laughed: "It's a little interesting." But how can you guarantee that if you scare him with the matter of retirement, he will be able to mend his ways? Or, aren't you worried that he will be hit by this news to the point that he will give up on himself and completely break the jar? ”
In front of Zhao Kangming, Hu Lai was very relaxed, he shrugged his shoulders and said honestly: "I don't know if he can really reform himself." But that's the only way I can think of. If he really wants to break the jar, that's his own choice. When the time comes, it will be a lie for you to tell him about retirement, but the club will definitely not buy him out again, he can go wherever he likes, and from now on he will not have a penny to do with the Shining Star Club. You also saved on the transfer fee, didn't you? But if he can really regain his life from the excitement of retirement, won't the club make money? Anyway, the club has nothing to lose, so why not give it a try? ”
After speaking, Hu Lai looked at Zhao Kangming and stopped talking.
At the same time, he thought in his heart that if he really didn't succeed, his loss would be nothing more than not getting the task reward. But I didn't have any [Spirit Rhino Card] before, didn't I come to this day? So if he can't get the task reward, he can't get the task reward, he just lost what he didn't have in the first place, in fact, he didn't lose anything.
If Zhang Qinghuan is bent on dying, then let him rot in the mud, anyway, there is no shortage of him as a meteor in Chinese football.
I am not a Virgin, I have to sacrifice myself to save others......
After Hu Lai finished speaking, there was a silence in the office, and Zhao Kangming and Chen Mo were speechless, bowing their heads and pondering.
At this moment, the door of the head coach's office was pushed open, and General Manager Dong Wen squeezed in.
He seemed to want to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw Hulai standing in the room.
He didn't expect to see players in the manager's office before the team practiced, and he was stunned for a moment.
Dong Wen doesn't hate this young man, after all, he has solved big problems for the team, scored so many goals, and is a local player, with the halo of his own household register, Dong Wen will not give Hu Lai a look at this time in this place anyway.
Despite his heavy heart, he still smiled at Hu Lai and greeted: "It's Hu Lai." ”
"Hello Manager Dong." Hulai also returned the salute in a regular manner.
Dong Wen nodded, then no longer looked at him, but set his eyes on Zhao Kangming, and said straight to the point: "I just received a call from Lao Yang, did he tell you?" ”
Chen Mo nodded, and was just about to say, Zhao Kangming grabbed in front of him and frowned and said: "Said, he said that Zhang Qinghuan was seriously injured, and I am afraid that he will retire early......
Dong Wen: ???
Chen Mo glanced at Lao Zhao.
Zhao Kangming looked at Hu Lai: "You go back first, prepare for training." You don't need to say a word to anyone else if you hear it here today, not even your roommate. ”
When Hu Lai heard Director Zhao's words, he knew that Director Zhao should have made a decision and planned to adopt his own plan.
So he covered his mouth with his hand: "Don't worry, Director Zhao, I didn't hear anything!" ”
Then after saying goodbye to Dong Wen and Chen Mo respectively, he rushed out of the office, and closed the door completely before leaving, ensuring that the voices of the three people inside would not be heard by the people outside.
Turning his head to see Hu Lai close the door, Dong Wen asked the question in his heart: "What's the situation, Lao Zhao?" Didn't you say there were no big problems? Cultivation for ten days and half a month is enough......"
Zhao Kangming looked at him and asked, "Manager Dong, I want to ask, can one recover to the previous level...... No, Zhang Qinghuan returned to the previous level of 80 percent. Just like in yesterday's game, he may not be able to break through and his explosiveness is reduced, but he still has great football awareness and ball sense, and his imaginative passing is still there, and he can perform even better with good practice...... Zhang Qinghuan like that, is the club still willing to want it? ”
Dong Wen's mouth opened slightly, and he looked at Zhao Kangming with a confused expression.
