Chapter 145 The Fuse of the Football Storm
November 2012, 11, four days before the national team played against New Zealand, this may be a memorable day, because from this day on, a violent football storm swept across the land of China.

And the fuse of this storm was precisely Zhang Xu who left the national team angrily after encountering injustice!

In the early morning of this day, most of the sports media, whether it was print media, online media, or TV stations, published a report that stunned all Chinese people on the front page:

Shady!Absolutely shady!Deportivo's absolute midfielder Zhang Xu suffered unfair treatment in the national team and was forced to leave the national team within a day!
In this report, Zhang Xu explained in detail all the encounters of Zhang Xu from the registration to the departure of the training base, and attached some photos that can prove the authenticity of the report.

In this report, Zhang Xu has completely become a tragic hero. Faced with the crimes of a certain organization, he would rather stand up and resist, and finally left the national team that he dreamed of joining.

As soon as this report came out, it immediately caused a huge wave across the country. Countless domestic fans expressed their support for Zhang Xu on the Internet and vigorously condemned the misconduct of a certain organization.

"Resolutely support Zhang Xu!"

"Zhang Xu, no matter how unfairly you are treated, please remember that we will always stand with you!"

"This is indeed the consistent style of the Pig Association!"

"After the appraisal, the Pig Association is the Pig Association! It will never become XX Association!"

"Who on earth wants to drive away the hope of our national football team? How many years will the Pig Association ruin our national football team?"

Soon, this incident became more and more troublesome. Not only the fans responded enthusiastically, but also the media began to make efforts, commenting one after another to support Zhang Xu.

"Why can't our national football team break out of Asia?Because of the existence of certain people and certain institutions! "

"Genius players like Zhang Xu are forced to leave, what hope is there for our national football team? "

"Who Can Come to Save Our National Football Team?Is it Gao Qiu? "

Finally, this huge storm finally alarmed the uppermost layer!

So, a phone call from top to bottom quickly conveyed the most resolute instructions from the top: [-]. Thoroughly investigate the cause of this incident, and severely punish those who violate the regulations, no matter who is involved![-]. Immediately start to reorganize the XX Association, establish and improve the supervision and management mechanism, and must prevent such things from happening; [-]. If the reports of the outside news media are true, immediately bring Zhang Xu back, and quickly clean up the cancer of the national team!
Of course, there are some other instructions, such as quelling the bad influence caused by the news media, etc., so I won’t elaborate here one by one.

Under the powerful effect of this phone call, a spectacular top-down storm quickly formed and swept across the whole country in a blink of an eye.

At three o'clock that afternoon, under the admiring eyes of the airport staff, Zhang Xu boarded the passenger plane to Spain.

Half an hour later, the passenger plane took off on time.And just as the passenger plane was taking off, two staff members from the XX Association came to the international flight customer service center in a hurry.

"We are the staff of the XX Association. May I ask if the XXX passenger plane to Spain has taken off?"

"XX Association? Huh, sorry, I don't know very well!" When the beauty in the customer service center heard that it belonged to XX Association, she immediately revealed a disgusted expression and snorted unceremoniously.

"Then can you check it for us, please?" The two XX association staff showed helpless expressions. Today is not the first time they have received such a cold reception.

Even when the taxi came to the airport just now, the taxi driver was very enthusiastic at the beginning. After hearing that he was from the XX Association, his attitude immediately became bad. In the end, he directly threw the two of them in a place where there was no place in front of the village or behind the shop, and they had to run for half an hour before finding another taxi.

This time they behaved well and did not reveal their identities, and finally arrived at Pudong Airport safely.

"Oh, I can't check, the computer is broken!" The beautiful service staff waved impatiently and said, "Don't block other people's inquiries, get out of the way!"

The two stepped aside helplessly, looked at each other with a wry smile, and had no choice but to come to the big screen where the flight was displayed, and search for the specific situation of that flight little by little.

After searching for a long time, the two finally saw the passenger plane information of the flight that Zhang Xu bought, but to their despair, it said "has already taken off!"

The two discussed it, and finally one of them took out his mobile phone and made a call: "Leader, I'm sorry, we didn't stop Zhang Xu. When we arrived at the airport, the passenger plane he was on had already taken off!"

"What? How did you do it? You haven't been able to stop a single person in an hour? Don't you guys know to call the airport in advance?" A thunderous voice suddenly came from the phone's microphone.

"I called, but when they heard that it was the XX Association's call, they immediately hung up the phone, and when they called again, no one answered!"

The other side of the phone was silent for a while, and then said: "Then you can also make a call! One hour is enough for you to get to the airport, right?"

"We were able to get here by taxi, but after we got in the car, when we were discussing how to announce the decision to Zhang Xu, we let the taxi master know our identities. As a result, the taxi master left us halfway. We walked for more than half an hour, and then found another taxi and felt the airport. When we arrived, the plane had already taken off!"

The other side of the phone was silent again, and after a while, there was a sigh: "Forget it, come back, I'm going to hold a press conference right away! Oh, this is a mess!"

At five o'clock in the afternoon, at the Shanghai Hongkou Stadium, the State Administration of XX and the XX Association jointly held a special press conference.

At this sensitive time, holding a press conference immediately aroused the interest of countless sports media, and they rushed to the Hongkou Stadium one after another, crowding the press conference site.

Attending this press conference were two spokespersons from the XX General Administration and the Press Office of the XX Association.

"Hello everyone, journalists from the media. I am XXX, the spokesperson of the XX General Administration! The person next to me is XXX, the spokesperson of the XX Association." After the official start of the press conference, the spokesperson of the XX General Administration immediately started today's press conference.

"I invited all the reporters here today, mainly to give an explanation to domestic fans and friends about Zhang Xu's departure from the national team."

"After Zhang Xu's departure from the national team was exposed, our XX General Administration immediately attached great importance to it, and set up a special investigation team. This morning, it entered the national team training base and conducted a detailed investigation."

"The results of the investigation are basically in line with what the media disclosed. Therefore, our XX General Administration has decided: first, to revoke the decision to punish Comrade Zhang Xu; second, to expel XXX (the long-haired player) who caused this incident from the ranks of the national team, and to select other talented people to enrich the national team; third, to immediately transfer the two XX Association employees XXX and XXX who decided to punish Zhang Xu without authorization from their jobs, and give them a disciplinary punishment within the party with a major demerit."

"This is the decision of our XX General Administration, thank you! Now if you have any questions, you can ask any questions!" After the XX General Administration's decision was announced, the spokesperson of the XX General Administration indicated that reporters could ask questions.

Soon, almost all the reporters present raised their right hands.At a glance, it is as magnificent as a forest.

The XX General Administration randomly ordered a reporter, and then listened carefully to the reporter's cross-examination.

"I am a reporter from XXX, may I ask, will Zhang Xu return to the national team?"

The spokesperson of the XX General Administration did not expect the first question to be so sharp. He couldn't help but frowned, thought for a while, and then replied: "Not for the time being!"

"Not for the time being? Why? It's not his fault, so why didn't you recall him? Don't you XX General Administration and XX Association have any face concerns? Besides, what our fans want to see now is Zhang Xu's return to the national team! Also, how long is this temporary period you mentioned?" the reporter immediately asked.

"We made this decision based on two considerations: first, the opponent in this warm-up match is New Zealand, which is not a very strong team. Even without Zhang Xu, our current national team is confident of defeating them; second, Zhang Xu has already returned to Spain. If we call him back, he must run back and forth, which will consume a lot of energy, which is not conducive to his game state."

"As for the time being, I think we should ask the head coach of our national team, Mr. Camacho, if he thinks it is necessary to call Zhang Xu, then we will definitely issue a call-up order to Zhang Xu for the national team immediately! Alright, next one! Thank you!"

"Hello, I'm a reporter from XX News. We found that in this incident, the head coach Camacho didn't even have the right to defend his own players. What is the reason?"

"Well," said the spokesperson of the XX General Administration, his forehead was already sweating: "This involves the issue of our contract with Mr. Camacho. After all, Mr. Camacho is not Chinese. He doesn't know China's national conditions very well. Therefore, we set some restrictions in the contract. And these restrictions were just used by those who wanted to."

"Someone with a heart? May I ask who is it? How dare to use the national team's big event to do such a ridiculous thing?"

"We are investigating, and I believe we will give you a conclusion soon! Well, let's go to the next one! Thank you!" The spokesperson of the XX General Administration spoke in a tired tone, which shows how tormented he is.

"Excuse me."

"Excuse me."

A press conference lasted for a full two hours without precedent!
