Chapter Forty-Nine: The Gift of Lakuri
The office door then closed again.
Sun Jihai is a little confused, Lao Liu has such a great charm, originally this time is not very important to Ranieri, the original reason is this: after taking over the handsome seal of Manchester City from Pierce, Ranieri has performed very well for several seasons in a row, entered the League Cup every season, and reached the final four of the League Cup last season, and won the great trust of the club president Waddell, who completely handed over the power of the team's personnel adjustment to him, due to too many injuries in the second half of this season, There have been some ups and downs in the results, and young players have been sent in many games, stabilizing the team's record, and now there is still the possibility of competing for a place in the League Cup, but in this case, there are actually a few young players who have performed well in the league on their own, and jointly asked the club to give a salary increase, which has affected the atmosphere in the dressing room, and in order to teach them enough lessons, Ranieri is ready to loan them to the lower leagues next season.
This idea has just been determined, Sun Jihai, as one of the captains of the team, participated in the whole discussion process, when the idea was first proposed, he told Lao Liu on the phone, and Lao Liu asked Jihai to make a decision on this idea as soon as he made a decision on the first time, and the players who can play in the Manchester City team and perform well are exactly what he needs most at this stage.
To be honest, Ranieri still looked at Sun Jihai's face before agreeing to receive Lao Liu, and the most important thing for the white-haired coach now is not to decide the fate of these ignorant young people next season, but to ensure that he qualifies for the League Cup this season, which is the difference between tens of millions of pounds and real money. It can be said that the meeting with Lao Liu is very low in Ranieri's mind, so it will lead to continuous postponement and even cancellation for various reasons, and now he has actually pushed off the date with the FA officials, and specially set aside the whole night to invite Lao Liu to dinner, Sun Jihai can't figure it out, is it really in his own words, this Lao Liu got a lot of money out of nowhere to buy Manchester City, that's not right, that should be talked to the club chairman Waddell.
After Lao Liu came out of Ranieri's office, Jihai wanted to see something from his expression, but there was no gain, no joy, no disappointment, and nothing else, no different from before he went in just now.
"You accompany Mr. Liu, meet in the parking lot in ten minutes, and we will go to dinner." Ranieri said to Jihai.
As soon as he left the floor where the office was located, Jihai hurriedly asked, "How did you talk about renting those children?" Does the price say it? ”
Making an unfathomable and profound expression, Lao Liu waved his hand lightly, "I didn't talk about it, I didn't talk about this issue at all." ”
"Ah, I didn't talk about what you were doing in it for more than an hour, why did the white-haired old man invite you to dinner?" After asking again, Lao Liu didn't say a word......
In the private room of the famous Chinese hotel in Manchester, Youfuju.
"The Shandong cuisine here is extremely authentic, you can't eat chili peppers, Sichuan cuisine and Hunan cuisine, and half of the charm of Chinese food has nothing to do with you." Sun Jihai beckoned the waiter to order the four famous Lu dishes of hibiscus scallops, eight-treasure tofu box, vinegar pepper cinnamon fish and Sixi duck, and ordered seasonal vegetables and tomato and egg soup, and poured Shandong famous wine into everyone's wine glass, the three of them raised their glasses and took a sip, Ranieri and Liu Luyi chatted while eating, and seemed to continue the topic they were chatting about.
"I have never been able to understand what you said, and modern Western medicine cannot explain it, so how can such a thing that cannot be defined by numbers and simulated by experiments be used as a means of treating diseases?"
Lao Liu smiled, trying to recall the little Chinese medicine theory that he had made up with Dr. Liao before he came, "Lao Tzu, the founder of Chinese Taoism, once said that people and all living things turn to aging when they are extremely strong, and this transformation is detached from the principles of Taoism. The "Tao" he advocated advocated that through the way of cyclic return, people and all things should be kept in the state of "infants" as much as possible, because babies look weak, but they are full of vitality and are far away from death. This is exactly what the Tao should do. Restore or regulate things in a cyclical way to maintain balance and longevity. ”
Not only did Ranieri shake his head again and again when he heard this, but even Sun Jihai on the side was a little confused.
"Wouldn't that be against the natural laws of metabolism? Is this what the Chinese call immortality? Ranieri thought for a moment and refuted Liu's claim.
"That's not what it means, human science still has strong limitations, many things we can't understand their true principles, but now technology allows us to try to change them, this is the view of Western medicine, everything must come from every atom, molecule, from every formula, data, all questions are dead, all have standard answers, so that the most effective way to find the key point of the problem to solve it, but some things if the existing technology can not be solved, or it takes time, There is nothing that Western medicine can do. ”
Seeing that the two of them listened very carefully, Lao Liu was happy in his heart, and drank a stumbling well with Ranieri, and then continued, "But this is not the case with Chinese medicine, we think that everything is growing on its own, what we have to do is not to forcibly change them, but to guide them, "Dao" means that each aging or injured part can circulate to the previous normal state on its own, so Chinese medicine pays attention to conditioning, and the effect is slower than Western medicine, but as long as there is an effect, it will be more magical than Western medicine." ”
"Liu, I understand your explanation a little, is this also the principle of acupuncture?"
"Yes, the acupuncture points on the human body have no meaning at all for Western medicine, because those places are not the places where the situation occurs, and for Chinese medicine, those acupuncture points are like a door, through them, you can mobilize the place where the situation is out of circulation and mediation."
"That's what you told me about the qigong treatment that afternoon."
"The Chinese pay attention to the Tao of one, one life two, two and three, and all things, and all things are one, in fact, this is the truth, hehe, I only understand one and two, and I can't say more." talked about a lot of things that he didn't have a very good concept of, Lao Liu was really tired, so he stopped and began to eat.
At this time, Sun Jihai, who finally couldn't hold back, began to ask his coach, "When did you become so interested in these things, did you all talk about these things all afternoon?" ”
"Hehe, this friend of yours has a big gift for us, and as soon as the person he said is in place, I won't worry about those injuries in the future." Lali was obviously in a good mood, and drank another glass of white wine to herself, and some of the old spotted faces also revealed a faint red.
Looking at Lao Liu suspiciously, Jihai thought, aren't you here to ask for someone? Why did you change it to give it away?
While the old man went to the bathroom, Lao Liu told Jihai about the afternoon's process.
