"10th among the top ten figures of Chinese football in 1999."

"Houghton!"

"Horton led China to the 2000 Sydney Olympics and made great contributions."

There was thunderous applause from the audience, and Horton deserved it.

However, Horton was not present today, he returned to the UK for a holiday, and his assistant coach took the stage to accept the award on his behalf, and it is estimated that Horton is not too interested in this award, after all, it is only a very small award.

……

……

"Ninth,"

"The boss of Shenyang Sea Rat: Zhang Jian,"

"If he doesn't make a sound, he will be a blockbuster! Wisdom and brains. Every time there is an occasion with him, he is always in the limelight! In the end, he was born as a drama actor, single-handedly directed classics such as "The Battle of Shen Yu" that shocked Chinese football, and gave up his acting career for the sake of Chinese football, but it's a pity that it can be discussed! If he is still in the entertainment industry, he must be the best director so far, and he is even expected to be on the international stage, win glory for the country, and walk with Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige, what a pity!

"Wow?"

There was an instant uproar in the audience.

Awesome!

Awesome!

"Awesome!" Zheng Zhi almost shouted.

I didn't expect the ninth place to be so exciting.

What's going on? Why is there such a shocking scene, I really dare to say it......

It's completely different from the plot in your memory, huh?

Is "Sina.com" so bold? Isn't this a blatant mockery of Zhang Jian?

It's changed.

The world has changed a lot.

At this time, there are 'people' who dare to stand up and play like this?

Zheng Zhi felt a tingling of his scalp, I don't know whose list is so big, really take out the matter of Shen Yu's first battle, this matter will definitely be on the headlines of major sports news tomorrow, there is no one.

Others are also talking about it.

"Don't want to mess around?"

"Oh my God, who's behind this award?"

"Dare to put this thing up, it's really not shocking."

"It turns out that the person of the year is not just awarded to those who have made positive contributions?"

"Awesome."

But the host didn't stop and continued to read.

"Eighth place,"

"Li Yin!"

"Li Yin's excellent performance in the past year has proved that many Chinese fans are blind!"

Blind?

Everyone couldn't help but complain again.

Why are you blind? Many people just remembered the scene of Chinese fans scolding Li Yin in 1997 after just a few seconds of trance.

The word 'blind' is quite apt.

"Huh,"

"I found that no, none of the leaders of the Football Association came today, not a single one."

"No wonder?"

"Hehe......"

"Seventh,"

"Li Weifeng!"

"Li Weifeng deserves to be ranked seventh, and he has now become the best centre-back in Asia!"

"Sixth,"

"Zhang Yuming!"

"The jade-faced killer is very talented, not only on the course, but also on the drinking field, and also has a place in the racing world."

Chi Guoguo satirized Zhang Yuming's car accident and drunk driving.

“……”

"This ......"

"My Nima suit, the top ten people of the year awarded today are really unexpected!"

"Zhang Yuming can be on the list? It's over, it's over, how did this awards show pass the review? Didn't anyone find out that there was a problem? ”

"It's not going to be live on TV, is it?"

"It's like it's just a live webcast."

Many people are experiencing numbness in their scalps.

……

……

"Fifth place,"

"Wu Di!"

"The most successful football agent in China and even in Asia."

"Mr. Wu Di has made great contributions to Chinese football, and he has helped many young people with football dreams find a home in Europe. Not only that, Mr. Wu Di has also traveled to Japan, South Korea, and even Brazil! ”

……

……

"Fourth,"

"Fan Zhiyi, the big brother of Chinese football!"

"Fan Zhiyi, as a pioneer of Chinese overseas players, has made a name for himself in the UK, and he is likely to join the English giants Liverpool in January!"

"Because England does not have a winter break, it is a pity that Fan Zhiyi did not come back to receive the award, but we are more looking forward to him joining Liverpool as he wishes!"

"Third place,"

"Sun Jihai!"

"Sun Jihai's joining Arsenal is already a sure thing, just waiting for the official announcement of Arsenal and Crystal Palace, this is the best New Year's gift for Chinese fans."

"Who said we only have one Zheng Zhi? We still have Fan Zhiyi, and Sun Jihai! ”

"What about Zheng Zhi? Zheng Zhi won't be here today, right? ”

Zheng Zhi smiled in the audience......

"Second place,"

"Xu Genbao Xu Guidance!"

"Now we should call Director Xu Principal Xu."

"After President Xu stepped down from the position of head coach in Dalian, he worked with Zheng Zhi to open the country's second football school in Shenyang."

"But this school is completely different from the football school opened by Luneng this summer, because this football school does not require tuition fees at all, and no money is required! The premise is that you have to be talented enough to be footballing. ”

"If you want to make a fortune playing football, hurry up."

"If the relationship with Principal Xu is particularly good, hurry up and go through the back door, ask for the relationship, and call ......"

Xu Genbao, who was sitting next to Zheng Zhi, was almost hit by the host's words. It's really open-mouthed, and there is no bottom line at all.

What kind of wind is this? The top is shaking, dare to say this at the award ceremony, it must have been instructed by a certain leader above, otherwise he wouldn't dare to do it if he was given ten dares. Xu Genbao thought in his heart.

I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing for Chinese football?

"I grass,"

"I grass,"

"I grass,"

I'm going crazy, ahhhhh

Many reporters in the audience were completely crazy, and they could hardly believe what was happening at the scene.

"How do you write in a while?"

"Oh my God, what kind of news is this, it's so shocking."

"Write how you want, report the news truthfully and objectively, isn't this what our news media should do?"

"What if you offend someone?"

"That's not our offense, we just reported the award process truthfully."

……

……

"First place, Zheng Zhi!"

"There's nothing to say about that."

……

……

The news of the Sina Top Ten Awards quickly spread to every corner. Major emerging online websites have reprinted and reported this shocking news, and some people are happy and some are worried.

In a certain big hotel in the capital, a certain leader still had the spring in his mind, and after answering a phone call, he was immediately frightened.

"What a bitch!"

"Will you play?"

"It's so ruthless."

Immediately threw a thousand yuan at the head of the bed, hurriedly put on his clothes and left the hotel, and went straight to the office.

……

……

Bang!

Zhang Jian, the boss of the sea rat, slapped the table angrily, and the glass table in the living room shattered instantly.

Ignoring the bleeding right hand, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Good, good!"

"How dare you be so blatant!"

"We'll see,"

"We'll see!"

Anger to anger, angry words to angry words, he still quickly got up and went back to the room and began to pack his things. To go, to hide from the limelight......

……

……

"It's changed."

"I can't imagine it.

"Is there three fires for the new official?"

"Be careful to burn yourself."

"Let's just wait to see the show and see what you can turn it into."

The owners of the major clubs are still sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai and are not worried at all.

……

……

※※※※

At the end of 1999, the dramatic end of 1999 made Chinese football a mess, but it made people applaud, and everyone was watching the drama to see what else would happen to Chinese football.

And the next day, the awards continued.

This time, it was the award of China's 20 best players in the world.

The award ceremony was too lively, the new leader just came to the award door, and was immediately surrounded by countless domestic reporters, today it is not only football reporters, sports reporters, even CCBV reporters have run over.

Everyone wants to know what is going on.

However, the new leader did not say anything, just waved his hand, smiled heartily, and did not say a word.

Only Zheng Zhi knows it.

In fact, these are just appearances. The world is as black as a crow, and no one is clean. He doesn't believe in the guys of the past, and he doesn't believe in the guys of the future.

So

What should it be or what it should be.

"Zheng Zhi,"

"The domestic water is too deep,"

"It's a mess."

'Thankfully, I got down from the manager's position.

Xu Genbao and Zheng Zhi attended the 20th Century China Player Awards Gala again, and it felt like he had aged a lot after a night.

"Last year, I was thinking about finding another club to coach, and then I thought about doing youth training, I didn't want to toss, in fact, I was still unwilling, but now I understand."

"That's it."

"Let's run our school with peace of mind."

Xu Genbao was disheartened, "School is our future. ”

"I hope there is still a pure land."

Zheng Zhi gently patted Xu Genbao's knee.

"Old Xu,"

"You don't think too much,"

"You just have to do your best to do a good job in the football school, and I believe that as long as the nature of our school remains the same, we will not let any player be buried, and no one can influence us."

"As long as I, Zheng Zhi, still play in Europe, I can keep the football school standing, and ensure that the children have the ball to play and the dreams to chase."

"After the award is awarded, we will go back to Shenyang and do our thing."

"Hey, that's good."

Xu Genbao instantly felt much more down-to-earth in his heart, it was good to have Zheng Zhi in his cover, with Zheng Zhi's competitive state, there should be no problem in the next ten years.

At this time, the first sister of Chinese women's football came.

"Hello Sister Sun."

Zheng Zhi stood up and took the initiative to greet Sun Wen.

"Zheng Zhi,"

"I've grown taller again."

"It's a young man."

The two of them have met several times at the Xianghe base, and they are generally familiar.

"Hello Principal Xu."

Sun Wen said hello to Xu Genbao again.

"Sun Wen,"

"Your women's football team has really won glory for the country."

"The men's soccer team is far behind."

Xu Genbao was a little excited, in contrast, it was the women's football team that made the Chinese people proud. This summer, the Chinese women's football team lost 4:5 to the United States at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, California, and won the runner-up of the Women's World Cup, which is the most awesome honor of Chinese football this year. Sun Wen also won the World Cup Golden Ball Award for this, and today he also appeared here as a candidate.

"If you want me to say, the best player should be awarded to you."

Ha?

Zheng Zhi was secretly happy in his heart.

Didn't you say you should have given it to me before? Now that Sun Wen is here, you can tell Sun Wen.

Well, in fact, it's okay for Sun Wen, the runner-up of the World Cup, you can kill everyone, and the men's football team will never reach the World Cup final in this life......

"Zheng Zhi, when will you lead the men's football team to the World Cup final, it will be amazing."

"Awesome?" Zheng Zhimu responded with a smile.

"But Xu Lao, don't you think it's real to reach the World Cup first?"

"You're making this joke too much......"

"It's not funny."

……

……

"Candidate for the Best Player of the 20th Century:"

"Li Huitang, Zhang Junxiu, Rong Zhixing, Chi Shangbin, Gu Guangming, Jia Xiuquan, Fan Zhiyi, Hao Haixi, Sun Wen, Zheng Zhi."

"Sports Weekly" sent a total of 4 million questionnaires, and 3723742 valid votes were returned."

"Lee Hye Tang 89,769 votes,"

"Wow?"

"The king of the ball of the century, there are so few votes? It's less than 100,000. ”

"Unscientific, huh? Didn't a German magazine select Lee Hye Tong as one of the five greatest players in the world in the 20 years? is as famous as Pele and Maradona, but I didn't expect everyone to choose him. ”

"Wasted fame!"

"Normal."

"Although this product has been the vice president of FIFA, has he really contributed to Chinese football?" ：

"The most disgusting thing is that I have been living in China TW in my later years."

"He shouldn't have been made in the first place, even though his career is quite legendary."

It seems that everyone is not too interested in the so-called Chinese football king.

"Zhang Junxiu 110352 vote,"

No one has said anything about this yet, and its fame is too small.

"Ikegami Bin 73,343 votes,"

The same is true for Ikegami, who is perhaps more famous as a coach than he is as a player.

"Gu Guangming 105421 ticket,"

"Yung Chi Xing 88675 votes,"

"There's no future, it's all soy sauce!"

"It looks like it's a young man."

……

……

"Hao Haixi 136671 vote,"

"Awesome, Hao Haixi, but this vote is not enough."

"He's also here to make soy sauce."

"Most of the votes didn't come out."

"Fan Zhiyi 228769 vote,"

"Awesome, Fan Zhiyi!"

"But the votes still don't work, there are only three people left, right?"

"There are only Jia Xiuquan, Sun Wen and Zheng Zhi left, the number of votes must be terrible."

"Jia Xiuquan 169954 votes,"

At this point, there are only two people whose data have not been released.

Zheng Zhi and Sun Wen also deliberately glanced at each other, and the best player must be produced from the two of them.

The host of the scene also deliberately stopped.

"Obviously, the best preparation is coming, who do you think it will be?"

"Is it Zheng Zhi, who entered the top 20 of the European Golden Ball Awards, or Sun Wen, who won the World Cup runner-up?"

"I'm going to read it out."

"I'm really going to read it."

"Sun Wen !!!"

"He got 810076 votes."

The audience applauded wildly in an instant, and thunderous applause resounded throughout the audience. Although Sun Wen is a women's football player, her achievements are unmatched, especially when compared to men's soccer players.

"Awesome!"

"Sun Wen!"

"Sun Wen, the best, the best, Sun Wen!"

"Hey, hey, does it count? It's not Sun Wen. ”

"There are more than two million votes left!"

"Hey, I thought the best was Sun Wen, it's not right, Sun Wen's votes are still far behind, it's Zheng Zhi, it's Zheng Zhi!"

"Zheng Zhi!"

"2093232 votes."

"Zheng Zhi is the best Chinese football player in the 20th century!"

"Congratulations to Zheng Zhi!"

"Well deserved!"

At the age of less than 20, he won the award of the best Chinese footballer of the 20th century. It was voted for by 3.7 million Chinese fans. ”

"The second place is Sun Wen, with 800,000 fans supporting him, although it is a pity to be second, but she is also a heroine, the pride of Chinese football!"

The third was directly ignored, and it was really too far from the top two.

Although they are not golden boys and girls, both of them represent the highest level of Chinese football and even the highest level in the world.

Exciting music sounded, thunderous applause rang out, and Zheng Zhi walked to the podium to receive the best trophy of the century from the hands of the new leader.

"Thank you,"

"Thank you."

"Thank you to the fans all over the country for their love of me."

"You have ruthlessly chosen me."

Flutter~

"Ruthless?"

The audience burst into laughter.

"Zheng Zhi, what kind of trouble is this?"

"Choosing you is the right one, why is it ruthless?"

Let's listen to Zheng Zhi say slowly.

"In my opinion, Sister Sun Wen is the best of the century."

"If I vote, I will definitely vote for Sister Sun Wen."

Sun Wen smiled happily in the audience, although she did not win the award, she was quite satisfied to be able to win the second place and be recognized by nearly a third of the fans.

As for the first? The Zheng Zhi on the stage is definitely qualified. Zheng Zhi is the real future of Chinese football, and his influence is limited after all.

Moreover, Zheng Zhi is young, so young that people are jealous, such a tender little fresh meat......

But Zheng Zhi said in a deep voice:

"I'm holding this trophy and I'm ashamed."

"How can I, Zheng Zhi, win this award? Sister Sun and the Chinese women's football team won the runner-up in the World Cup, while our men's football team has nothing so far. ”

"I'm ashamed of the best."

Zheng Zhi bowed slightly, expressing his shame, and then raised his head again.

"But now that the fans have recognized me, I must not let down everyone's high expectations for me."

"I will definitely do my best to lead the Chinese team to the World Cup and fight for glory for the motherland!"

Applause rang out again.

But there was also some ridicule in between.

"The slogan is loud,"

"The question is,"

"Didn't Zheng Zhi not enter the national team?"

"Haha, it's funny, I can't represent the national team, how can I get into the World Cup?"

"For the time being, for the time being, he'll be back in the national team soon."

"Now that the new leader has come to power, a lot of things have changed,"

"Who dares not to let Zheng Zhi enter the national team? It's just a procedure, and he will definitely come back in the Asian Cup finals in the second half of this year. ”

Sure enough, someone in the audience reminded loudly.

"Zheng Zhi,"

"You don't seem to have been recruited to the national team yet, right?"

"Are you going to play five-a-side?"
