Rebirth 1994: Football Situation

Chapter 403 If you are...

From July 29th to July 26th, seventeen days, 12 matches, No.1956 Asian Cup, and also the first Asian Cup held in China (accurately, it should be the second time, in [-] The first Asian Cup in [-] was held in Hong Kong, but Hong Kong had not returned to the motherland at that time) successfully came to an end.

In these 26 games, the average attendance rate of each game is 1000 people, which is a rather scary figure, and the AFC is quite satisfied with this. Through this Asian Cup, the influence of Asian football has increased again Many, the Chinese Football Association is also quite satisfied, the national team has won honors, and at the same time the Chinese Football Association has also received a considerable amount of income in organizing events, and the income of each venue is also very high. Anyway, it can be regarded as a happy event.

The Chinese team won the championship with six victories in six games, scoring [-] goals and conceding six goals. It also shows how terrifying the offensive ability of the Japanese team is. Conceded three goals, and three goals were conceded in one game of the final—the runner-up of the Japanese team, South Korea and Saudi Arabia ranked third and fourth respectively. With the advantage of the competition being held in East Asia, the top three in East Asia swept the top three, gradually reversing the situation in Asia. Football pattern.

You know, in the past 30 years, apart from the Korean team in East Asian football, the other top two Chinese and Japanese teams have never entered the World Cup. In the Asian Cup, the East Asian teams are also at a disadvantage. In addition to the two championships and the Japanese team's summit in 92, the other eight times were taken away by West Asian teams and the Israeli team that is now under the jurisdiction of UEFA. Sweeping the top three in the Asian Cup seems to indicate that the pattern of Asian football will gradually tilt towards East Asia.

Nie Fei won the title of the best player. He had a decisive performance in the final. Two goals and one assist were enough for him to win the highest individual honor in Asia, while Hao Dong tied for the best with six goals and Li Dongguo The shooter, Jiang Hai won the best goalkeeper.

Four players from the Chinese team were selected for the best team, namely forward Hao Dong, midfielder Nie Fei, defender Fan Junjun and goalkeeper Jiang Hai. They are the veritable biggest winners of this Asian Cup.

For Chinese football, this Asian Cup is perfect and perfect-the national team has won honors, the players have won championship titles and generous rewards, the Chinese Football Association has gained income and lofty prestige and achievements, and the host regions have won awards. Income, satisfaction and pride for the fans...

The only regret may be that at the celebration meeting after the Asian Cup, Chairman Xu Bing suffered a heart attack due to being too excited. However, there were many people present at the time. After taking first aid measures and sending him to the hospital immediately, Xu Bing’s condition was stable. After all, he already had a heart attack, and this attack was accidental, and it wasn't too serious. He just needed to pay attention to rest and maintenance at ordinary times.

Pei Wei was very worried after hearing the news. In 96, he arrived in time to save Xu Bing's life, but he couldn't cure Xu Bing's disease. Heart disease is very difficult to cure. Xu Bian's health has been very good in the past few years, so he didn't pay much attention to this aspect. This time Xu Bian's illness sounded the alarm for him-Xu Bil is still a patient!

He called Xu Bing several times, and Xu Bing was still so proud and dry, and he didn't take Pei Wei's advice to him to work less.

"It's my luck, it's my life, there's nothing to worry about." He said to Pei Wei with a smile like this, as if discussing an irrelevant matter: "God let me live for a few years , There is no way to argue, don't worry, I still have a few more years to live, I haven't found a successor yet!"

"Let Wan Junsheng do the usual things, and his ability is not weak." Pei Wei said: "If you ask me, his ability in league organization and other aspects is definitely better than yours. This person is a master of internal affairs. A good player...just let Zhang Long go to deal with the AFC, and his diplomatic ability is also very strong, you just need to be in the center to command! Don't make yourself so tired, or I will really use my strength to drive you off the stage Or else it will deprive you of your power and let you take a job!" Pei Wei had no choice but to threaten Xu Bing like this.

After hearing this, Xu Bing laughed loudly: "Pei Wei, I believe you have this ability... But you needn't say it, the work of the Chinese Football Association is now on the right track, and when everyone gets used to it, I will It can be much easier. It is not enough now, three years, at least three years, to make achievements and set a benchmark for the people who come later... Not now. If I come down now, Lao Wan’s character will be soft, Unable to control such a big mess, Zhang Long has no overall view, and the others are just doing practical things... Now, I can't leave."

Pei Wei was silent. He knew that what Xu Bing said was true. Although the position of Chairman of the Football Association was glorious, it did not have much practical benefits. In name, the Football Association was now at the same level as the General Administration of Sports, but the level of the chairman of the Football Association was higher than that of the director of the General Administration of Sports. At least two levels behind, it is very difficult to climb up, and the one-sidedness of the Football Association's work restricts the difficulty of developing into other departments. To put it bluntly, this is a thankless position.

Of course, it is still very easy to make money in this position. The fees charged by the Football Association every year are astronomical. The annual broadcast fee from CCTV alone exceeds 24 million yuan, and each club has [-] billboards at home. The fee obtained has to be turned over to the Football Association for [-] yuan, and the luxury tax is also paid for the bonus-this is almost [-] million, but Xu Bing insists on not getting any hands on the broadcast fee, and the advertising share and luxury tax obtained from the clubs are all paid. It has been used in the student league and women's football, and Xu Bing has such a clean personality, he will never get any benefits in terms of "profit".

He won't have too much "power" and won't get any "profit". Xu Bing probably only gets "fame".

But in this increasingly utilitarian era, how many people only care about fame?
Pei Wei thought to himself that he would not be able to do it. Although he has done many practical and good things for Chinese football, it was based on the fact that he already had enough to eat and drink and had no interest in power—if Pei Wei did not have such a huge wealth , I am afraid that he will still consider himself first and then consider how to revitalize Chinese football.

Xu Bing is not someone who clings to power and does not let it go now, just because it cannot be done.

The influential old people in the Football Association have almost left. The "Mesozoic Generation" who came in at about the same time as Xu Bing was Xu Bing, Wan Junsheng and Zhang Long. Xu Bing was the chairman, and the other two were in charge of the league organization and the outside The diplomacy itself is already too busy. Although the later group of people have young people who are born in a professional class, they can do specific affairs without any problem, but they can't handle the overall situation. If they want to sit in the position of Patriarch, it is not enough to rely on knowledge and genius of.

Three years later, with the maturity of the league mechanism and the establishment of professional thinking within the Football Association, Xu Bing will be able to relax a bit—but can Xu Bing still support it for three years?

People with heart disease may be able to live peacefully for many years, and may never wake up after falling asleep—it just depends on when Lord Yama is interested in taking you.

"I can't convince you..." Pei Wei sighed and said, "Then you must promise me the next thing! I will ask two high-level private nurses to be by your side, check your body every day, and take medicine on time— —Don’t refuse! This is a gift from a friend! I don’t want to lose a friend like you! You also know my current net worth. It’s nothing to ask for two private nurses. I don’t need money from the Football Association or you personally Pick up your pocket, understand?"

Pei Wei's resolute tone warmed Xu Bing's heart—he knew that Pei Wei really didn't need to ask him for anything, even though Pei Wei's Yunjia Tianyu Club was under the jurisdiction of the Football Association, Pei Wei's power was already far away. Far beyond the Football Association, there is no need to please him to gain any benefits.

What is a friend - this is a friend, only those who have no conflicts of interest can become true friends, not to mention that Xu Bing and Pei Wei still have a fateful friendship!

"Okay then, I'll be corrupt for a while." Xu Bing didn't evade any more, and agreed: "But you won't find two young and beautiful nurses for me, right? My wife is very jealous."

"Damn!" Pei Wei laughed: "A male nurse who's big and thick and a female nurse who looks like a 'flower'—want to be corrupt? There's no door! I don't want to be beaten by my sister-in-law."

"Do you want me to be in a bad mood every day? At least you have to look past it, right?" Xu Bing complained half-truthfully.

"How can that work?" Pei Wei rebuffed straight away: "It is said that couples will have a 'seven-year itch' after seven years of marriage-you and your sister-in-law should have been married for more than seven years, right? Xu Nuo is already 15 years old... It’s been more than two seven years! If there is some scandal, I will be guilty of a serious crime! Besides, you and your sister-in-law have not been together for a long time, what if some little goblin takes advantage of it?"

"I... my god! Are you looking down on my firm stand like this?" Xu Bing couldn't laugh or cry, and simply scolded: "You boy, get out of here! I won't let you hire someone for me!"

"The chairman is the chairman. How can I be so cheap to threaten me with this?" Pei Wei muttered.

Just as he was about to hang up the phone, Xu Bing suddenly said: "Pei Wei, if you are in the Football Association... I can rest now."

After saying this, Xu Bing immediately hung up the phone.

Pei Wei held the phone and was speechless in a daze.
