Rebirth 1994: Football Situation

Chapter 119

"Will it really happen?" Xu Bing said weakly: "If our league continues like this, will such a dark situation really appear? Our league has just started, is it going to be destroyed by these damn middlemen? It is really easy to say that it is destroyed, but it is easy to destroy trees and difficult to plant trees."

Pei Wei looked at Xu Bream with a bit of pity. In his memory, Xu Bream, who died young, was unfortunate, but he was also lucky. Pei Wei didn't even dare to imagine that when Xu Bream knew that he had poured countless To what extent will the painstaking Chinese League become like that later.

"Of course the consequences I mentioned may be a bit serious, but if left alone, such a situation is really likely to happen." Pei Wei ended his long speech: "And these are all caused by those so-called middlemen. "

"Then what can we do?" Xu Bing seemed to be ten years old suddenly: "These middlemen are all personal actions. How can our Football Association get so much energy and manpower to manage them? We are not Jinyiwei and KGB. We can control Everyone's movements... if it wasn't for the club's own admission, there is nothing we can do about it."

"It is true that this kind of thing is difficult to eliminate at the root, because individual behavior is the most difficult to stop in advance, but you can punish the club with heavy penalties after the incident, so that people in the future will be afraid!" Pei Wei decisively Said: "In 1980, AC Milan, the defending champion in Serie A, was in third place and released water to Lazio, another team that was about to be relegated, so that Lazio stayed in the ranks of Serie A. The Italian media commented on this game. The match that took place raised doubts, the judiciary quickly intervened, and in the end both teams were penalized for relegation to Serie B. It was after this penalty that Serie A began a period of prosperity known as the Little World Cup. In 1993, the French Marseille team faced double competition for the Champions League and Ligue 1994 titles at the same time. In order to ensure that the main players had a rest to play in the Champions League, they bought off the three main players of the league rival Valencienes and easily defeated the French team. After the Valencines team, they won the Champions League in the same year with their main players in good physical condition. However, one of the players of the Valenciness team who was bribed by them voluntarily surrendered to the judiciary because of condemnation of conscience. After the investigation was confirmed, Marseille was deprived of the title of European champion, and the team was forcibly relegated to the second division. It has not been promoted again until this year. And the year before last, that is, in 80, it was found that many games in the Malaysian league were banned. Manipulated by the gambling syndicate, more than 20 players were blacklisted for bribery after Malaysian judicial intervention, and [-] people were arrested. These are some methods of dealing with match-fixing in other leagues. I think we should be able to get some information from these materials Experience it."

"You mean..." Xu Bing said hesitantly.

"Govern troubled times, use heavy codes!" Pei Wei quickly continued: "What is the purpose of you playing match-fixing and releasing water? Isn't it just to gain benefits? Now that the benefits are stripped away, it will bring disadvantages—then Who else would be so stupid? If you want to win the game, you can only start from increasing your own strength, introduce more foreign players with good strength, increase investment in the youth team, train more good players, or spend money to buy people from other teams ...Even if you are relegated in the end, you have worked hard? As long as the league is running healthily, then there is still hope to return to the top league!"

"You said it too simply." Xu Bing smiled bitterly: "What you said just now is easy, but do you know how difficult it is to implement? How to define match-fixing, and what should the team do if the penalty is not satisfied? There is no evidence How to punish? What you said just now, are all conclusive evidence to punish the teams who play match-fixing, and the intervention of the judiciary is necessary... It's difficult!"

"It's not very difficult." Pei Wei took a puff of smoke: "There is no clear boundary to define what is a negative game, even in foreign countries, but everyone is not blind. As long as there is great public outrage, almost all public opinion thinks that Problems can be defined, and when necessary, you can kill chickens and scare monkeys... as long as you give other clubs enough shock."

"It's... difficult." Xu Bing shook his head: "There will definitely be troubles at that time, but you can try it. After all, the consequences you said are too serious. Our league has just started, so we can't be affected by these things. In the development of Chinese football, if there is a match that is really outraged by the people, then it can't be said... hehe, it can only be horrified."

"Of course, this is not something that can be accomplished overnight, but at least where the Football Association can control, it must be as honest as possible, and these people cannot be given opportunities, such as...referees." Pei Wei said softly.

Xu Bing was confused by Pei Wei's words, and Pei Wei didn't explain: "This year's League A, there have been several incidents of dissatisfaction with the referees. Didn't the Yanbian team have one? Is the game passive because of dissatisfaction with the referee? Sometimes the team that loses in an abnormal game is not necessarily a bribe from the winning team, but is wronged by the biased penalty of the referee on duty Losing the game... If the referee can be fair and not be tempted, I think this kind of abnormal game will be much less, after all, it is rare for the losing side to lose and it doesn't matter."

"You are doubting the staff of the Football Association—the referee's ability." Xu Bing frowned: "Don't you think it is too much to say such things in front of me, the chairman of the Football Association?"

Pei Wei smiled: "I said, now I'm just talking to you as a friend... There's no need to go online, right?"

Xu Bing smiled helplessly: "Okay, go ahead and say... There are indeed a few referees who behaved abnormally in the process of law enforcement this year... But now our country's football foundation is still very weak, and it can be used There are not many good referees in China, should we drive them away?"

"The lack of referees can be solved by holding more referee training courses. I can personally find some experts in this field from Europe and hold referee lectures every year to lower the threshold for becoming a referee. Besides, our referees are basically amateurs now. Yes, they have their own jobs at other times. If they can do it, why can’t other people do it? I think the income of being a referee is relatively high, right? The threshold should not be that high. I passed the exam... At that time, I was just an ordinary football fan, and I didn't take any special refereeing classes. I think there should be many people who are better than me? As long as the number of referees is large and there are many fresh blood, then Are you afraid that there will be no referees to enforce the league? If it is not possible, you can also hire referees from other countries. In addition, when appointing referees, you must implement a confidentiality policy at the beginning, so that the club does not know who will enforce the game. After the list is out, the Football Association will send work. I think these methods can effectively control contact with other people. After all, if there are not enough benefits, who would risk being scolded by fans to blow the whistle?"

"Well, these methods are good." Xu Bing nodded, with a smile on his face: "Is there any other method?"

"Then there is a high salary to support the integrity." Pei Wei said with a smile: "How much is the referee's income for a game now? It seems to be 500 yuan, right? It can be increased on this basis, for example, to 1000 yuan, then bragging. One game can basically be worth their salary for several months..."

"Isn't that right?" Xu Bing interrupted him: "No matter how much you can improve, there is a limit, and those teams that want to relegation can pay a higher price than this no matter what, even if Dong Chuang's incident is discovered by the referee. He can't even be a referee, he means that the income from blowing a black whistle with conscience can be worth ten years' income, so few people can withstand such a temptation, right?"

"If we really want to do that, we can only let the judiciary intervene." Pei Wei said with a murderous look on his face: "What is the difference between collecting such black-hearted money and accepting bribes? Naturally, there will be laws to sanction them! There are enough A backup referee with a higher legitimate income than ordinary citizens, and severe punishment by the law... I believe every referee will weigh it, right?"

"It's really good." Xu Bing slapped his thigh fiercely: "Okay, these ideas of yours are very good! This year's league has indeed begun to appear abnormal, and our Football Association has also begun to pay close attention to it. It's the right time, your ideas have given me a lot of inspiration, and we will have a meeting on this aspect before the start of the league."

"There is another problem." Pei Wei continued: "Controlling the referee can solve part of the problem of match-fixing. Severe punishment can make other clubs who want to fight against the wind fear... But if the club does not know What about players who accept bribes from other clubs to put water on the pitch?"

"No way?" Xu Bing opened his mouth wide. Today Pei Wei's words gave him too much impact: "Once such a thing happens, the player's life will be over! Who has such courage?"

"As I said just now, when I refused the intermediary's request to let go of the water, they once had the player's idea." Pei Wei said with a gloomy face: "In the end, they didn't succeed because my players didn't have any agents. Can players from other teams withstand such a temptation?"

"The game, after all, can only be played by players. If someone wants to let go, then even the club can't stop it. As an individual player, it is also the most likely to be bought by those middlemen..."

"That's nothing to say, if it is found out, the game will be suspended! Banned! Seriously turned over to the judiciary!" Xu Bing slapped the table fiercely, and roared like a king with glaring eyes: "It's okay!"
