World Cup of Great Powers

Chapter 241 The Asian Cup Deal
"Looking at the football leagues of countries all over the world, there is nothing like this!"

After hearing the "gossip" that Wang Junsheng had revealed to him, Zeng Zheng became very angry.

"Ah, Xiao Zeng, young man, don't be so angry."

Wang Junsheng waved his hand on the ground, "Isn't this still in the discussion stage, everything is easy to discuss, easy to discuss."

"Discuss it!" Zeng Zheng said angrily, "I also played in the World Cup in 98. Why didn't I make this suggestion at that time?"

"That was then, now is now!" Wang Junsheng replied, "After all, no one thought that you could bring the team to the World Cup, so they didn't make any preparations."

"But the next World Cup will be different."

"We have been planning this World Cup since 92."

"Ten years of hard work is such an important juncture, the league will of course make way for the World Cup!"

Wang Junsheng took it for granted, and several other insiders in the room also nodded frequently in agreement.

It is different from European and American leagues.

Why do we develop football leagues?
Why do we have to separate football from sports?
Is it for the health of the whole people?
Or to popularize football?

Or do you want to use football as a sport to develop business and gather funds?

neither!
To put it bluntly, in our place, any sports is to pave the way for results and rankings.

This is why it is easy to understand why Zhuxie will introduce all kinds of incredible "new regulations" every time there is an intercontinental competition.

"No, I will definitely not agree to this!"

Zeng Zheng waved his hand and said, "If you really want to make way for the World Cup, you can completely stop A, A, and B."

"What the hell is canceling A-A's relegation?"

"Uncle Xu has been anti-corruption and anti-criminal for almost two years. Once this policy is introduced, won't his two years of hard work be in vain?"

"No, I am firmly against it!"

Hearing Zeng Zheng mention all these, Wang Junsheng was a little embarrassed.

I am also a bamboo shoe bamboo mat anyway, you are not giving me any face.

"Xiao Zeng, isn't it just a one-year suspension of relegation? What's the big deal?"

"With Wang Zhuxi at the top to control it macroscopically, what waves can be created below?"

"As for what you said, I think it's too much!"

"Why don't A, A, and B all stop, can that work?"

"Then who will pay and support these hundreds of players this year?"

"What's more, if you don't play games for a year, what should you do if your skills regress?"

"If you want me to say, it's better to suspend the relegation of A-A for one year."

"The game has been played, and the purpose of the training has been achieved, and it will not be so fierce for the ranking of relegation and relegation, causing players to be injured."

"And Coach Zeng, you think too simply. This is not just a simple relegation issue. It also involves Zhuxie's development plan for the domestic league in the next few years."

"You are still too young, some things are not as simple as they seem"

You say a word, I say a word, so that Zeng Zheng can't even get in.

In the end, Zeng Zheng simply stood aside with his arms around his shoulders, without saying a word.

Seeing that everyone was tired of talking, Wang Junsheng spread his hands.

"Okay, let's put this matter aside."

"Don't forget that we are talking about the Asian Cup today."

"Xiao Zeng, this is the first match of the Asian Cup, we can't be timid!"

"Anything you want to say about your old rival South Korea?"

Zeng Zheng rolled his eyes at Wang Junsheng, grinning like eighty thousand.

You also know that you are here for the Asian Cup this time?

I thought you were embarrassing me!

"What's the point of hitting a stick?"

"As long as that guy surnamed Xu dares to continue using 352, I can beat him until his mother can't even recognize him!"

Hearing Zeng Zheng's promise, many people present nodded.

However, some people raised their hands and asked, "Coach Zeng, what if South Korea doesn't play 352? Then what should we do? Are you ready to deal with it?"

Zeng Zheng frowned, this guy was obviously targeting him.

"If South Korea doesn't play 352, then other teams will beat them so that they can't even recognize their mother!"

"Coach Zeng, what are you talking about?"

The XX office director raised his eyebrows, stood up and pointed at Zeng Zheng's nose and said, "Coach Zeng, this is a serious occasion, please don't use such vulgar answers."

"Whatever the chairman asks you, you can answer honestly."

"Don't think it's so great to lead the team to win an Olympic bronze medal!"

"Young man, there is still a long way to go!"

Hearing this, Zeng Zheng realized for a while.

Looking at Wang Junsheng in the middle of the room, he immediately understood the purpose of the other party's trip.

You are here to point me!

what's going on?

Are you afraid that my skill will overwhelm the Lord?

Looking at the faces of directors in the room, Zeng Zheng felt that he was still too young.

The other party throws bricks to attract jade, and casually reveals a "relegation and promotion system" to himself, in order to see his own reaction.

As a result, I really got into the sleeve directly.

Think about it too, is this something that a national team coach should ask?

Even Zeng Zheng didn't even have the power to support or oppose it.

What Zhuxie needs is an obedient tool man, not a thoughtful Zeng Zheng.

After thinking about this, Zeng Zheng fell silent.

Zeng Zheng sighed amidst the words "Coach Zeng should lead the team well", "select young people for the country well", and "use all his energy in the game".

No matter how strong the players and coaches are, they can only improve the lower limit of Chinese football;

If you want to truly make football bigger and stronger, you must not let the butt determine the head!
The older generation of international footballers have almost been replaced by Zeng Zheng;

This batch of bamboo shoe officials should also be replaced!

The "consolation meeting" turned into a "condemnation meeting", and these people chattered for two hours before letting Zeng Zheng go.

That night, Wang Junsheng knocked on the door of Zeng Zheng's room.

"Yo, it's Wang Zhuxi?"

"What's the matter? Didn't you talk enough during the day?"

"Can you give me a make-up night class?"

Wang Junsheng smiled wryly, "Xiao Zeng, your mouth is really tricky."

"If you're not cunning, how could Wang Zhuxi find the opportunity to fight me one-on-one!"

"What's the fight? What year is this? Let me tell you, it's the 21st century, a new era of socialism!"

"What's the matter? Wang Zhuxi also plans to give me some modern history?"

"All right, you bastard, I can't say no to you!" Wang Junsheng pushed Zeng Zheng away and walked straight into the room, "If I really want to fight you, I'll bring someone here tonight!"

"What does the bamboo mat mean?"

"What do you mean?" As if returning to his own room, Wang Junsheng poured himself a cup of hot water, "Didn't you see clearly what happened in the afternoon?"

"See what?"

"You boy, I really don't know if I'm pretending to be stupid or I really don't understand!"

After Wang Junsheng cursed with a smile, his face darkened.

"Xiao Zeng, do you still remember what I said when I became the bamboo mat?"

"That's your oath of office, what's the use if I remember it?"

"Develop China into a world-class football power, and develop the Chinese football team into a world-class powerhouse." After muttering a few words, Wang Junsheng sighed, "Xiao Zeng, don't blame your Uncle Wang. Sometimes , Uncle Wang can't help himself!"

You have become bamboo shoes and bamboo mats, but you still can't help yourself?

Zeng Zheng did not say this.

Of course, he also knew that this position was a isolation zone.

As far as the football circle is concerned, if you dig deeper and higher, coming to him means the end.

What's more, the inside of bamboo shoes has never been united.

There are those like Xu Wang who are wholeheartedly engaged in football, others who are devoted to money, others who are devoted to Zheng Zhi, and even spies, not to mention those who are devoted to lying down and eating and drinking.

After Wang Junsheng came to power in the past two years, he tied Wang Yilin together to professionalize referees, put Xu Fang down in the league to focus on discipline, sent Zhang Jilong to the AFC to do diplomacy, and let his national name once challenged to improve results .

It can be said that a lot of great things have been done, and the control of the general direction has always been in hand.

But the football circle has never been just a big event, and those trivial things are countless.

For those opportunistic people, there is always something you can't take care of.

And once you find out that some moths are going to attack the building in this area, in fact, the load-bearing wall has almost been eaten by them.

When the national team was a big cake, they did not fail to produce some moths.

But this piece is too important, and the attention of the people is high.

After the National Olympics led by Zeng Zheng and Xu Wang and others came back and forth with a wave of "inside and outside cooperation", supplemented by public opinion, the national team was eliminated.

However, after a few months of hiatus, they turned their attention to the league again.

And this time the league suspended relegation, they proposed.

Wang Junsheng and others have already vetoed them once in the matter of the national team. If they want to veto these people again, in addition to showing the necessary reasons, they must have stronger confidence and means.

The most important thing is that the suspension of relegation in the league this time is based on Xu Wang's blueprint for "development of the Chinese Super League".

No matter in terms of time, situation, means and purpose, Wang Junsheng will not be able to find any reason to refuse for a while.

Even after discussing with Xu Fang, he felt that the plan was feasible.

But what I didn't expect was that Zeng Zheng encountered such strong opposition.

"Xiao Zeng, if you're not in a hurry, let me explain to you in detail."

"The suspension of relegation in the First Division is not that simple."

"This specific step is that next year we will implement a 'straight promotion without relegation' competition system in the league. The 14 teams in A A will be ranked but not relegated, and the two teams in A B will be promoted to A, turning A into 16 teams. "

"And the top two teams in Division B will still be promoted to A-B, and the number of A-B teams will remain at 12 to remain unchanged."

"The focus of this year's work is to strengthen the incomparable venue facilities of A-A and the construction of the talent echelon and B-level club's own functions."

"In 02, our Class A practiced 'Only down but not up'."

"At the end of the year, the last two teams from A-A will go to A-B so that A-A will return to 14 teams, and the last two teams from A-B will enter Division B."

"The focus of work during this period is to strengthen the three major constructions of the A and B teams."

"In 03, the relegation and relegation system of the First Division returned to normal."

"And conduct a strict review of the first-tier clubs in accordance with the standards, and go through it from the beginning."

"By 04, we will build a super league with the theme of A-A and A-B."

"This is also the Chinese Super League we mentioned before. I remember you supported it at the time, right?"

"Anyway, our ultimate goal is to build a super league, and this period just happens to catch up with the World Cup."

"I think that this suspended relegation system can reduce our workload during this period, and can screen, review and discipline clubs, leagues and national teams one by one."

"This is more convenient for future Chinese Super League plans!"

"Xiao Zeng, what do you think?"

This time, it was Wang Junsheng asking his opinion softly in private.

After organizing the language briefly, Zeng Zheng expressed his views honestly.

"Uncle Wang, let's start the Chinese Super League. I am a hundred supporters."

"But the problem is that compared to A, the Chinese Super League cannot just change its name, but actually change the soup without changing the medicine."

"In that case, there is no need for the Chinese Super League to do it or not."

"And as I said before, running the Chinese Super League will definitely involve military expansion."

"As for the expansion of the army, it is enough to directly stipulate that A and B will be promoted by two more places."

"If it really doesn't work, release a two-year plan, and one more promotion a year is fine."

"There is no need to suspend relegation, then review repeatedly, and then break up and reorganize."

"It looks very simple, but in fact the water is deep inside!"

"Uncle Wang, if I were the owner of the club, with just the word 'censorship', I would be able to bring down all my competitors, and I would go up there myself."

"Do you believe it or not?"

Hearing Zeng Zheng's words, Wang Junsheng's expression became like that of a pig's liver.

"Xiao Zeng, why don't you trust your bamboo shoes so much? Even if you don't trust me, you still have to trust your Uncle Xu! His work for the past two years is not for nothing. By saying that, you are not directly rejecting his two years of work?"

Zeng Zheng shook his head and said, "Uncle Wang, these are completely different things!"

"Uncle Xu controls the anti-corruption and anti-corruption in the league, but he can't control the internal affairs of the club!"

"There are too many maneuverable spaces here. If you think about it carefully, you will figure it out yourself."

"A lot of things are unsolvable."

"And it's one of them."

"Secondly, our 7 years of league practice has proved that the decision to establish a League One system with clubs as the main body and the home and away system and relegation system as the core is completely correct."

"The role and social influence of the First Division League are positive and effective, and it is also in line with the development trend of modern world football."

"Rushlessly suspending relegation and relegation will not only increase troubles, but will only lead to worse consequences and become a bigger joke."

"Uncle Wang, this is not the first time we have entered the World Cup."

"Which country do you think has suspended the promotion and relegation of its own league because of the World Cup?"

"Don't forget, the league is the foundation of a country's football."

"To patronize the World Cup but suspend the league, in my opinion, it is putting the cart before the horse!"

"Uncle Wang, we can't go against the laws of the market when we do things!"

After listening to Zeng Zheng's explanation, Wang Junsheng also fell into deep thought.

After a while, Wang Junsheng was able to speak.

"Okay, Xiao Zeng, Uncle Wang has written down what you mean."

"After we go back, I will discuss it with you, Uncle Xu and others."

"If this matter is really as harmful as you said, and it will cause a lot of trouble, then we will have to use some force to suppress it like last time."

"only"

Speaking of this, Wang Junsheng cast his eyes on Zeng Zheng again.

"Just what?" Zeng Zheng spread his hands.

Looking at Wang Junsheng's eyes, he understood instantly.

"Damn it, Uncle Wang."

"What do you mean?"

"Isn't an Olympic bronze medal enough?"

"Do you want to increase the number?"

"How do you guys grow your appetite?"

Faced with Zeng Zheng's complaints, Wang Junsheng smiled wryly.

"Xiao Zeng, let me tell you the truth."

"The Olympic bronze medal is only responsible for securing your current position."

"If you want to expand the route in new aspects, you must have more confidence!"

After hearing this, Zeng Zheng sighed, "Okay!"

"Tell me, this Asian Cup, what do you want me to do?"

Wang Junsheng stroked his chin, tapped the table with his fingers rhythmically for a while, and then showed an expression like an old fox.

"Xiao Zeng, look at the Asian Cup, it must not be as intense as the Olympic Games, right?"

"And we have participated in the Asian Cup for many years, and we have made a lot of preparations for the Asian Cup."

"Even this Asian Cup was temporarily taken from Lebanon."

"Now you are not only fighting at home, the turf on the field from the group stage to the final is still yours."

"Win an Asian Cup champion."

"Isn't that too much to ask?"
