Although the Football Association's style of doing things has always been the same, as long as it is something they decide, unless it is a high-level leader of the central government, there will be no reason to change it.

But this time, when Feng Quan directly expressed his opposition to Peilan becoming the coach of the national football team by "refusing the call up of the national team", Cai Huazhen, the chairman of the Football Association, who is generally only responsible for guiding the general direction of the work of the Football Association and rarely asks about specific affairs, immediately convened several main leaders of the Football Association and reconvened a meeting on the selection of the national football coach.

Although Feng Quan's "feedback" has the meaning of challenging the authority of the Football Association's "talker", in the current extremely harsh environment of Chinese football, with Feng Quan's "thick legs" national team, its strength can be greatly improved. Moreover, if they can maintain their stable performance against the Saudi Arabian team, the Chinese team, which has never won the championship in a major Asian competition, even let the leaders of the Football Association see the hope of the national football team to win the top of Asia.

Because of this, even if Feng Quan's challenge to the authority of the Football Association made these Football Association bigwigs quite dissatisfied, but after thinking about it, if Feng Quan can lead the national football team to achieve achievements that their predecessors could not achieve, it is equivalent to the immortal achievements of these "talkers" of the Football Association! What is the slightest challenge to one's authority compared to a glorious future?

So, after nearly an hour of research and discussion, Cai Huazhen announced the following decisions:

1. Agree to Feng Quan's opinion and continue to be the acting head coach of the national team by Fu Bo.

2. Yang Hongchen, who is in charge of national team affairs, is required to try his best to contact the traditional strong teams in Europe and the United States to compete with the national football team during this year's national team match day.

3. Actively contact the world's famous coaches in European and American football and invite them to become the head coach of the national team. Among them, Lippi, who once led the Yangcheng Heng team to win the AFC Champions League, was also listed as the number one invitation target by Cai Huazhen.

…………

Although Yangcheng Hengda Club just signed a three-year contract extension with Lippi three days ago, when it learned that the Football Association intended to invite the legendary Italian coach as the head coach of the national team, it was still very happy to say that as long as Lippi himself was willing, Yangchang Hengda would definitely not have any obstacles.

As the chairman of Hengda Group, Xu Jiayi hopes that Lippi can lead his team to win more championships, but in the case that the "No. 1 Elder" attaches great importance to the development of domestic football, but is distressed by the long-term slump of national football performance, even if he needs to sacrifice his team's results, he is very "willing" to make a contribution to China's football career.

In fact, the reason why Xu Jiayi would rather sacrifice his team's achievements and be willing to "make a wedding dress" for the national team is not because his consciousness has really reached a height that ordinary people can't reach, but because he knows very well that his choice in terms of club performance will return several times the benefits for his business empire.

In the final analysis, Xu Jiayi's most important identity has always been a businessman, and Hengda Club is just a "business card" of his entire group after all.

However, just when Xu Jiayi thought that Lippi would accept the invitation of the Football Association to become the new coach of the national football team, and then began to instruct the general manager of the club to find a new coach, the Italian coach unexpectedly rejected the high-salary invitation of the Football Association.

You must know that Lippi's basic annual salary in Hengda Club has reached more than 8 million euros, and this time, in order to impress Lippi, the Football Association not only doubled the salary, but also will bear the salary of up to three assistants for him, and promised not to interfere in any team affairs.

Although the Football Association expressed enough sincerity, Lippi finally rejected the invitation of the Football Association on the grounds that "the Chinese Super League is about to start, and it will be extremely irresponsible to leave Hengda Club at this time".

In fact, Lippi is still very excited about the salary offered by the Football Association, after all, as long as he becomes the coach of the national football team, he is the highest-paid football coach in the world.

But at the same time, Lippi also knows very well that once he becomes the new coach of the national football team, with his brilliant achievements in the past, even if Chinese fans do not have the luxury of winning the World Cup, they will at least ask themselves to lead the Chinese team to the finals of the next World Cup. Moreover, after Feng Quan led the national football team to a four-goal victory in the Asian Cup qualifiers against World Cup regular Saudi Arabia a few months ago, there are even many fans who hope that the national football team will win the Asian Cup next year.

Remembering the Waterloo he suffered in the group stage of the defending champion Italy at the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, Lippi still "reluctantly" gave up the opportunity to become the "world's No. 1" high-paid coach.

The overall strength of the Italian team in 2010, although it is no longer comparable to the World Cup in 2006, is still several notches higher than the national football team. Therefore, even with the full pressure of the wind, Lippi is not much sure that he will be able to lead the national football team to win the Asian Cup.

Although the Football Association did not require Lippi to lead the national football team to win the Asian Cup, Lippi, as a world-class coach, believes that if he cannot lead the national football team with world-class stars to win the Asian Cup, it is almost equivalent to failure.

Of course, although Lippi politely rejected the invitation of the Football Association, he said that if this season's Chinese Super League is over, he may be interested in becoming the coach of the national football team.

Although Lippi only said that he "maybe" be interested in the position of coach of the national football team, Yang Hongchen, who is responsible for contacting Lippi, can be sure that the other party has at least a better chance of taking over the coaching whip of the national football team after the season. After all, the Football Association has offered a high salary of "the world's first".

At the same time, because the national football team missed this year's World Cup in Brazil early, in addition to the last Asian Cup qualifier against Iraq, the national football team only has some innocuous warm-up matches left. Therefore, it is completely possible to let Fu Bo lead the national football team to complete this year's game task as the acting head coach. The most important thing is that Fu Bo, who is the acting head coach, can get a salary that is very different from the cost of hiring Lippi.

So, Yang Hongchen immediately said: "The door of the national team is willing to be open for you at any time." ”

The reason why Lippi chose the "delaying strategy" is, on the one hand, to use a year to make a more accurate assessment of those players who have the strength to be selected for the national team, so as to determine what the chances of leading the national football team to win the Asian Cup are.

On the other hand, next year's Asian Cup will kick off in early January, while this season's Chinese Super League will not end until early November. Once Lippi takes over the coaching of the national football team, there will only be two months left for him to prepare for the Asian Cup.

In this way, even if he can't lead the national football team to win the Asian Cup, he can also use "the Chinese Super League has just ended, the players' physical condition is not good, and the time he has led the team is very short" as a reason.
