Chapter 105 Xianfeng Sports School
"Uncle Zhuang, I heard that you were also an athlete when you were young, can you tell me your story at that time?" With peanuts and braised pork, Li Xianfeng and Zhuang Ge chatted while eating.
"Our story back then?" Zhuang Ge seemed to fall into memory, "Actually, there is nothing to talk about, just train hard, train well to participate in the competition, and it is very boring." ”
"But then I heard that you were injured in training and ended up leaving the national team."
"Of course, what is an injured guy doing in the national team? You know, it's the national team! The people who stay there have only one purpose, and that is to win glory for the country! ”
When talking about the four words of winning glory for the country, Zhuang Ge's eyes showed a different look, there was nostalgia for the past, regret for not being able to appear on the international stage to complete the ideal, but there was no resentment towards the past.
This made Li Xianfeng even more admired, because he clearly remembered Chen Songtao's hideous face when he was injured and framed himself, and then expelled from the national team.
"Then the state didn't arrange a job for you after you retired?"
"Haha, I said what are you kid looking for me for, you kid thinks quite far!" Zhuang Ge laughed, as if he knew the purpose of Li Xianfeng's search for him, and Li Xianfeng did not refute, just smiled and waited for Zhuang Ge's answer.
"Of course, the state arranged a job for me, and it is not bad to say, either let me go to the provincial sports bureau as a section member, or go back to the county sports bureau as a deputy section chief, I didn't choose!"
"Oh? Why? Li Xianfeng asked puzzled.
"After more than ten years of being an athlete, I don't want to stay in the office for the rest of my life! So I chose to ask for money to go to the sea to do business, but in the end I lost all the money the country gave me. Zhuang Ge's tone was very ordinary, as if he was telling someone else's story.
"It seems that this Zhuang Ge is also a guy who is not willing to be lonely, but his luck was a little worse in the end." Li Xianfeng admired him even more, in addition to admiring his courage to go to the sea to do business, but also admired his mentality, not all retired athletes can be as open-minded as Zhuang Ge after failing in business, and there are many athletes who complain about the country's unfair treatment of him with the help of the media in later generations.
"I said that you kid don't listen to others chew the root of your tongue, you don't have to worry about what happens after you retire, besides, how old you are, and you are already an Olympic medalist, don't worry, the country will not treat you badly!" After Zhuang Ge finished speaking, he deliberately patted Li Xianfeng's shoulder, meaning that he was relieved.
"It's really hard to imagine that this kind of talk comes from the mouth of an old athlete who was sent to the national team due to injury, then retired, and finally failed in business, and was about to lose food without the support of relatives and friends." Li Xianfeng felt that such a person was worthy of helping him, and Zhuang Ge also had the experience of going to the sea to do business, so he should be able to be qualified for the position of vice principal.
"Uncle Zhuang, although you are not interested in being an ordinary teacher, the vice principal of the sports school in charge of external affairs does not know if you are interested?"
"What do you mean? Would you like to recommend me as a Deputy Principal? Zhuang Ge's eyes suddenly burst into a burst of light, but they quickly dimmed, "Xianfeng, I understand your kindness, but Uncle to be honest, although you are now famous, but such a personnel appointment is not something you can interfere with, even Chen Dao doesn't count." ”
"Uncle Zhuang, of course I know, but my idea is that I will contribute some money to open this sports school with the county, do you say that I am qualified to arrange a vice principal?" Li Xianfeng replied with a smile.
"Xianfeng, your kind uncle really understands it, but you really don't have to do it, besides, you are a little athlete, where did you get so much money? If you want to run a school, it can't be solved by the tens of thousands of dollars that the province rewards you. Zhuang Ge shook his head, not believing what Li Xianfeng said.
"Haha, Uncle Zhuang, you don't have to worry about this, if it's really as I said, are you willing to be the vice principal of this sports school."
"Then wait until you do it." Zhuang Ge smiled, but still didn't take it to heart.
Seeing this, Li Xianfeng no longer persuaded him, and waited until he went to the county the day after tomorrow, and after everything had settled, it would not be too late to invite Zhuang Ge again.
So the two didn't mention the national team, but just talked about the country's major affairs, and what was unexpected was that Zhuang Ge was a farmer in the village, Li Xianfeng used to be a top student of Beijing University, and there was a big age gap between the two, but they talked very closely, Zhuang Ge's understanding of national policies also coincided with Li Xianfeng, so an old man and a young man chatted from noon to evening, if it weren't for Zhuang Ge's wife worried that Zhuang Ge drank too much, and came to pick up people, the two didn't know that the sun had already set.
"Xianfeng, your Uncle Zhuang is back, we will get together again when we have time!" After Zhuang Ge finished speaking, he waved his hand at Li Xianfeng.
"Don't worry, Uncle Zhuang, you will invite me to drink soon." Li Xianfeng replied loudly.
"Haha, I hope so!" Regardless of the doubts on the face of the old wife beside him, Zhuang Ge smiled very heroically.
"You mean, you want to invest 500,000 yuan to run a sports school with the county?" Chen Dao looked at the calm Li Xianfeng in front of him, as if he wanted to see him through.
"That's right, Director Chen, the county shouldn't object, right?" Li Xianfeng looked at Chen Dao, who seemed to react calmly, and his intuition told him that this Chen Dao did not seem to be the simple and diligent director he thought, and the background in the family should be very deep, otherwise there is no reason to be very indifferent to this kind of thing that can increase his political performance.
"Of course the county will not object, can you tell me why you want to donate to build this sports school?"
"The reason is very simple, I want to ask my hometown to do something, of course, in addition to building a sports school, I am also ready to donate 500,000 yuan to repair the road from our village to the county." Originally, Li Xianfeng didn't plan to talk to Chen Dao about the road construction, but now he has changed his mind.
"Oh? Where did you get so much money as a little athlete? Chen Dao looked at Li Xianfeng with a scrutinizing gaze, because if the previous 500,000 yuan can be explained by the bonuses he has won in recent years, but now he has taken out another 500,000 yuan to build roads, it is definitely not something that normal athletes can afford.
"After the Olympics, Dongying invited me to participate in the competition and gave me an appearance fee of 1 million US dollars." Li Xianfeng did not expose his stock speculation.
"I didn't expect Dongying people to be so rich." Chen Dao was puzzled, and looked at Li Xianfeng with very envious eyes, obviously 1 million US dollars is also a lot of money for him.
"Since this is the case, I will tell you the truth, the county originally planned to invest 300,000 yuan to build a sports school, and now you contribute 500,000 yuan, according to the rules, you can't hold more than half of the shares, at most 49%, and this matter must be decided by the county magistrate."
"I understand the rules, presumably the county magistrate will not refuse this kind of good thing, but I have two requests I hope you can agree, the first is that I hope the name of the sports school will be named after me, and the second is that I want to arrange a person to be the vice principal of the school, responsible for the school's external business."
"I think the county can agree to the first one, but the second one can't, not just anyone can be the principal of the school!" Chen Dao seems to be not very satisfied with Li Xianfeng's request.
"Don't worry, the person I'm talking about, Director Chen, also knows."
"Who is it?"
"Zhuang Ge!"
Chen Dao pondered for a while when he heard this name, "If it were him, the county might agree." ”
Ps: Of course, it's not so easy to build a sports school, but I'm too lazy to ink, and I'll wait until the sports school expands ~ I'll be back on track tomorrow ~
