Chapter 104: Three Birds with One Stone
In April, except for the Central Asian Youth Cup led by Lian Bisheng, the other teams of the national brand are recuperating.
The players rested, but the Football Association continued to function. It's busy with the league here, and it's busy with the Olympics over there. Not only did the men's team succeed in this Atlanta Olympics, but the women's football team was also included in the Olympic Games. The Chinese women's football team, as a big football country, was directly invited to qualify for the Olympic finals.
"Yo, why do you have time to come to me today?" In the office, Vice Chairman Xu put down the big teapot in his hand and looked at Wang Junsheng who rushed in with a smile.
"Hey, don't mention it!" Wang Junsheng's face was gloomy, "Lao Xu, you are really not interesting." Hiding in the office and drinking tea, I have to face that 'cowhide Tang' by myself! ”
"Drink your saliva and get rid of your breath." Vice Chairman Xu poured Wang Junsheng a cup of cold white water, "Why, Tang Pengju still doesn't agree to that old boy?" ”
Tang Pengju, who is leading the youth team, has an extra nickname in the past two days.
"How could he possibly say yes?" Hearing this name, Wang Junsheng looked disgusted.
"Didn't you tell him it was the decision from above?"
"He has to believe what I said!" Wang Junsheng's face was full of helplessness, "He said that Jianlibao is completely under the management of the Football Association, and it is impossible for the people above to ask." Now that the Olympic Games have been qualified, the National Olympic competition has come to an end, and Xiao Ou has a lot of time to run in with his teammates. ”
"Then you can't let him go, what if you get hurt." Vice Chairman Xu took another sip of the jasmine in the teapot, looking satisfied.
Since the National Olympic Games qualified, almost all the media's attention has focused on one person, and that is Ou Chuliang.
However, considering that Ou Chuliang is still young, the Football Association did not let Ou Chuliang participate in some interview activities out of protection. Special invitations such as football nights were politely declined by the Football Association in order to "protect the growth of young people".
After the National Olympic Games qualified, the players from various teams returned to their hometowns to more or less contact some interviews, participated in some activities, and even many businessmen asked players to endorse products. The members of the National Olympic Games have become a small fire in China.
But Ou Chuliang went back to his hometown to visit relatives, and there was no news of public opinion scandals, and many people thought that he had returned to Brazil.
But the fans don't know where Ou Chuliang is going, and Tang Pengju, the coach of the Chinese youth team, is very clear.
Since Ou Chuliang represented the national football team against Sampdoria, Tang Pengju has been paying attention to Ou Chuliang, a goalkeeper of the same age from Jianlibao.
For a long time, Jianlibao has been a "non-governmental" organization. A "national brand" like Tang Pengju has the right to be recruited.
However, Jianlibao has a special identity, and it is a product of the Football Association's plan for 00 and 02 years, so it is directly under the leadership of the Football Association. Tang Pengju's youth team wants to recruit Jianlibao players, and must obtain the consent of the Football Association.
This made Tang Pengju very dissatisfied, but there was nothing he could do.
Anyway, when the team was established, it was already aggrieved, and now it is nothing for Tang Pengju to touch a small wall.
As we all know, this session of the youth team is estimated to be the weakest of the previous youth teams. The reason is very simple, the members of the youth team are all left over from the Jianlibao audition, so some people in the folk still call the young people "Jianlibao second team".
The trumpet is loud, and the strength is low, which is something that every general who leads the team is uncomfortable with. So in the past few days, Tang Peng has come to the Football Association again and again to make trouble, and he has to let Ou Chuliang join the middle and young people.
The reason is also very simple: he didn't go to Jianlibao to return to the team, why can't he come to Zhongqing?
The Asian Youth Championship will start in June, and if Ou Chuliang is in charge of the youth defense, Tang Peng's certainty of qualifying will be greater.
But the Football Association did not let Ou Chuliang return to Jianlibao, just because considering the start of the Olympic Games in July, Ou Chuliang was still in good health during this time, after all, the South Korean team's game without Ou Chuliang had a great impact on the leaders.
If the National Olympic Games want to achieve a satisfactory result in the Atlanta Olympics, the health of the main players is indispensable. In Yuan Weimin's words: "If Ou Chuliang is allowed to play in the Asian Youth Championships, it is better to let him go to Brazil to train with Jianlibao!" When the time comes, he will not have to travel from Brazil to the United States. ”
In this era, although the leaders have not yet given birth to a sense of "protecting high-end players and not playing at the bottom of the game", the experience of the Olympic qualifiers has still taught the leaders a good "lesson". In the final analysis, there are still too few domestic football talents, otherwise Tang Pengju would not have come to the Football Association with an old face three or twice.
"In short, no matter what, it's impossible for Chu Liang to send them over!" Vice Chairman Xu took another sip of herbal tea, "The above is clear, unless he gets a good ranking in the Asian Youth Championships this time, he will consider letting Chu Liang participate in next year's World Youth Championships." ”
"Who's to say it isn't!" Wang Junsheng looked helpless, "That's what I said to Old Tang!" And guess what he said? He said that as long as he has a player like Xiaoou to join their youth, he can 100% guarantee the qualification of the Asian Youth Championship, and even guarantee his position as head coach. ”
"Isn't that, you say? If they really don't qualify, their youth team will be disbanded, where will the head coach come? ”
"He and I were there playing with the white wolf with empty gloves, and if I hadn't run fast just now, I was almost blocked by him again!"
Seeing that his old partner was full of anger, Vice Chairman Xu couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
"I didn't expect Tang Pengju to be so shafted, it seems that I underestimated him. If it really doesn't work, let's use the method of agitation, and say something flattering to provoke him. ”
"You think I didn't? I've done everything I can! Wang Junsheng shook his head, "He cried to me at once, saying that this year's Xuemiao is not as good as the previous one, and the good Xuemiao let Jianlibao rob Balabala." You know this is true, how can I refute him? ”
Wang Junsheng sulked on the stool, but Vice Chairman Xu rolled his eyes and suddenly thought of something.
"Junsheng, you said that Tang Pengju said that Jianlibao snatched all the good seedlings?"
"Isn't it?" Wang Junsheng hesitated, "This Jianlibao audition, I picked a few top-notch seedlings from all over the country and sent them over. After being screened so many times, is there still a good player who has not been selected? ”
"You're right, of course!" Vice Chairman Xu squinted, as if he had thought of something happy.
"Who else?" Wang Junsheng was also stunned after hearing this, and then stood up, "There are still good seedlings of the right age?" Why didn't you make the cut? ”
Vice Chairman Xu waved his hand, "Everyone has their own ambitions, you can't force them!" ”
"Lao Xu, who the hell is it? Don't sell it, tell me about it! Wang Junsheng said anxiously.
For the football national games in 00 and 02, Wang Junsheng was unwilling to let go of the slightest new force.
"Do you still remember the Dalian guy who was not selected for the first audition because of us?" Vice Chairman Xu reminded.
"Dalian people?" Wang Junsheng pinched his chin, frowned and thought for a long time, and finally slapped his thigh, "You mean the one who lost because of bone age?" It's called Sun, what is Sun? ”
"Sun Jihai!" Vice Chairman Xu smiled and said, "That's him!" ”
"Let me tell you, Zhu Guanghu, this old boy, has been thinking about him for a long time. The first time I went to Brazil, I didn't take him with me, so I wrote me a lot of letters. After returning to China this time, he contacted me three times and twice, saying that he would take him with him on his second trip to Brazil no matter what. ”
"So, why didn't you bring it this time?" Wang Junsheng said curiously.
Jianlibao's first audition, except for those young players who really showed their top-notch level, the other players more or less left. In China, this humane society is understandable.
And Zhu Guanghu actually didn't have much say at that time, after all, he and other coaches were also a group of people who were selected. So Zhu Guanghu could only watch Sun Jihai lose the election for a trumped-up reason.
But now it's different.
Jianlibao led by Zhu Guanghu was a great success in Brazil, not only saving a lot of expenses, but also cultivating a pillar of the country like Ou Chuliang. This time I returned to China, and it can be said that I handed over a 120-point answer sheet. From the very beginning of the "coach to be selected", he has become the head coach of Jianlibao today, and his fame can be said to have skyrocketed.
In particular, Jianlibao's record of 21 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss in 26 exchange games after returning to China amazed the whole country.
With his current reputation, it would be a flip to bring a student of good strength to Brazil. So when he heard that Sun Jihai was still not selected for Jianlibao this time, Wang Junsheng felt very strange.
"That's why I said, everyone has their own ambitions, don't force them!" Vice Chairman Xu smiled, "The first time I didn't take him there, he was wronged." But people have ambitions, and they didn't sign up for the second audition at all! Even if Zhu Guanghu came to visit in person, he shirked it on the grounds of club competition. So he is still not on the list to go to Brazil this time! ”
"I see." Wang Junsheng sighed, "This kid, I didn't expect to have such a strong temper, and I don't know who to follow!" ”
"Hahahaha! But he didn't think that he could refuse a non-governmental organization like Jianlibao, and he couldn't also refuse the call up of the national team, right? This time, I will arrange him to be middle-aged and young, and see what Tang Pengju can say about that old boy! ”
"Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful! Lao Xu, your trick is really high! Wang Junsheng also took the case, and gave a thumbs up to Vice Chairman Xu and said: "It not only solves the 'cowhide Tang', but also allows this Sun Jihai to have a higher stage to show himself, and by the way, he can also test his true strength." Lao Xu, you are simply a slingshot to shoot down a finch (qiao)! ”
"Cut! No culture" Vice Chairman Xu pursed his lips with a look of disgust.
