ps, I know everyone doesn't like to read about the national team's story, so I'm trying to speed it up as much as possible. Otherwise, according to my previous habits… I think twenty chapters would be unavoidable… Finally, I'm also lucky today to have caught up with the update burst. If it were a normal day, updating only twice a day would make everyone vomit blood, wouldn't it?

So now everyone only needs half a day to read all the plots that you find uncomfortable. I think that's pretty good.

Next, Chen Hero is going to Naples, and his arrival is about to set off a storm in Naples and throughout Italy!

Please look forward to it!

In addition, there are only five chapters left in the manuscript… If there are too many monthly tickets tonight, I may only be able to owe the update until November because there are really no manuscripts to update. Even if I try my best to write now, I can't keep up with everyone's voting speed… But the guaranteed second update tonight is still available.

I'm also working hard to write manuscripts, hoping not to be in debt…

Chen Hero's press conference didn't have much influence at first, but after he put the video on the internet, his press conference suddenly became a hot topic of media attention.

This time, no matter how the Chinese Football Association threatened before, it couldn't stop the enthusiasm of these media to participate in the hype—you only said not to participate in the press conference, and we didn't participate. You didn't say not to participate in the hype of this topic, so you can't blame us…

Suddenly, all kinds of news about the truth of the matter became rampant, and the video was also played by some local TV stations, causing a national uproar…

After watching this video, everyone realized that Chen Hero was just "self-defense," and the culprit was Zhang Wei!

His kick was indeed too dirty!

This time, those media who supported Chen Hero finally had a chance to show their strength—now it's our turn to show our power!

Various reports criticizing the Chinese Football Association for distorting the facts, criticizing the low quality of professional players, and the heavy internal contradictions of the National Olympic team emerged one after another.

Zhang Wei, who had previously pretended to be particularly innocent and generous, was also pushed to the forefront.

But he is more experienced than Chen Hero—he directly became a tortoise with a shrinking head, and in the face of various questions and scoldings, he didn't come forward to say a word at all!

Many media satirized the Football Association: "I finally know why the Football Association didn't want the media to participate in Chen Hero's press conference at the beginning. It turns out they were afraid of the truth being exposed! Because they had a guilty conscience, they were so afraid of Chen Hero's press conference. It is said that only a mere twenty or so reporters went to Chen Hero's press conference, which is really bleak…"

※※※

The inside of the Chinese Football Association has become a mess…

Xie Yalong flew to Shenyang in a hurry, saying that he wanted to have a "good talk" with Duikovic. He was convinced that Duikovic was using the conflict between Chen Hero and Zhang Wei to eliminate dissidents… He knew that Duikovic and Zhang Wei had conflicts, but he didn't expect Duikovic to really dare to do this—exposing the internal conflicts of the team. Is he trying to commit suicide! If he doesn't want to do it, then get the hell out of here!

Nan Yong was slamming the table and losing his temper: "This is simply… simply… simply extremely bad! Extremely despicable!"

He had just received a call from the leaders of the State Sports General Administration, asking him what was going on inside the National Olympic team? How could one Chen Hero cause such a big trouble? Didn't they say that everything would be fine if he was expelled from the team? Why is it getting bigger and bigger?

And he said that the exposure of the chaos inside the National Olympic team to the public is a great damage to the image of Chinese football and even Chinese sports! This is the dereliction of duty of the Football Association, which failed to communicate with both parties in a timely manner, especially Chen Hero, a player with a bad temper and impulsive personality, who was simply expelled without any comfort or explanation… If this ultimately affects the performance of the National Olympic team in the Olympic Games, he and Xie Yalong will be directly responsible.

These words were already very serious.

That's why Nan Yong was furious in his office, almost throwing things.

The person has been expelled from the National Olympic team, so how else can we punish this guy?

Nan Yong suddenly thought of something—isn't there still the national team?

Before the Olympics, you made such a big mistake for me, so don't even think about entering the national team from now on!

The end of June 2008 was a time when many things happened to Chinese football. Some things were known to everyone, and some things were known to only a few people. Those things that only a few people knew were not dug out of the dust until a few years later, and everyone realized what had happened during that time…

What everyone knows is that the Chinese Football Association later held a special press conference, and Nan Yong talked about the recent uproar at the meeting.

"…The Chinese national team does not want players who are unorganized and undisciplined, disregard the overall situation, ignore collective honor, and have no country in their hearts!" This senior official of the Football Management Center of the State Sports General Administration, known as "Nan Tou'r" in the circle, deputy director, and senior official of the Chinese Football Association, deputy director, and director of the Chinese Super League Committee waved his arms and said passionately at the press conference.

As soon as this sentence came out, there was an uproar at the scene—is this a sentence of death for Chen Hero in the national team? Is it saying that the Chinese national team will not recruit him in the future? At least when Nan Yong is in the Football Association, he will not recruit him. But Nan Yong has been transferred to work in the Chinese Football Association since 1997, and has successively served as full-time vice chairman and treasurer. In 2001, as the head of the delegation, he led the Chinese national team to successfully enter the World Cup finals, which can be described as outstanding. Such a person will work in the Football Association for a long time without accident. He is only forty-six years old now, so it is not a problem to work for another ten years, right?

Does this decade mean that Chen Hero will not be able to be selected for the national team? Such an excellent forward was unable to be selected for the national team because he broke up with the Football Association! Ten years! How many decades will Chinese football waste?

A reporter stood up at the time and asked Nan Yong whether it was too hasty, too arbitrary, and too regrettable to exclude such an excellent forward from the national team.

"This is a decision made after research by the Chinese Football Association, and it is definitely not hasty or arbitrary. No matter how good a player's skills are, he must first learn how to be a person. If his character and morals are not up to standard, we don't want him. I think in the world's strong football countries, there are also stars with similar experiences who are famous and strong but ignore team discipline and have conflicts with teammates and coaches, right? I will say one that everyone is familiar with—Cantona. I think everyone present must know more about the story between him and the French team than I do, so I don't need to show off here."

Of course, these football reporters knew Cantona. The king of Manchester United has always been considered a French football king who is not inferior to Zidane, but because of his own personality problems, he was eventually rejected by the national team, and then announced his retirement when he was in his prime. It left endless regrets for countless fans.

He was quite successful at Manchester United, but he was indeed a controversial figure in the national team.

He could throw the national team jersey, which was regarded as the highest honor by many players, on the face of the head coach and curse the national team head coach Michel as "the most incompetent coach in the world," and was banned from the national team for a year.

Beat his own teammates? For Cantona, this is nothing remarkable.

Such a highly individual and talented player eventually drifted away from the national team due to personality reasons.

Nan Yong used him to say things, obviously to tell those media who were dissatisfied with the Football Association's decision—the French national team said that they would not use a big player like Cantona, so what is it to block a brat like Chen Hero? Yes, our Chinese team is not the French team, but you Chen Hero is not Cantona!

What everyone knows is that on June 28, the Chinese Football Association suddenly announced that Duikovic would be dismissed, but since the two parties did not contact the work contract, Duikovic was still nominally the head coach of the National Olympic team, but he was no longer responsible for any specific affairs, and he had no real power. He is not responsible for specific training arrangements, nor is he responsible for arranging troops and directing the game. His job is only to "collect opponent information and formulate plans for the coaching staff to discuss"…

It can be said that he has fallen from a position of great power to a position of leisure.

Changing coaches before the battle is a taboo for military strategists, but the Chinese Football Association resolutely cut this knife. What is it for? Many people didn't know at the time.

In the second half of June, for Chinese fans, Chinese football was like riding a roller coaster in front of them.

Chen Hero's joining made Chinese fans happy and saw hope—the UEFA Cup top scorer is here! What are we afraid of at the Olympics? As a result, in just one day, Chen Hero was expelled from the team for beating Zhang Wei in training. For a time, Chen Hero almost became a national sinner and was bombarded by public opinion and fans.

After Chen Hero was silent for a few days, he broke the news that there was a reason for him to beat someone. Zhang Wei used a black foot in training to try to cripple him, which led him to take action. This also led to the conflict between Duikovic and Zhang Wei in the National Olympic team, because the video released by Chen Hero was taken with his mobile phone! Although Duikovic has always publicly denied it, everyone knows—no fool would admit this.

Then, after Chen Hero announced the truth, the Chinese Football Association was furious and announced that the national team's door would be permanently closed to Chen Hero. Unless Nan Yong and others leave the Football Association, it is estimated that this is really a "life sentence." Not only is Chen Hero out of the National Olympic team, but even the national team will have no share in the future, which caused an uproar among Chinese fans and the media, who were completely unacceptable.

But this is not the end of this wonderful story. Only two days later, Xie Yalong announced that Duikovic would be dismissed, and Shang Yifei would temporarily act as the executive coach of the National Olympic team. Changing coaches before the battle made many people feel pessimistic about the prospects of the National Olympic team in the Olympic Games.

The star who was placed high hopes was expelled from the team and completely broke up with the Football Association, and the head coach was emptied. This National Olympic team, which took more than three years, spent countless energy and money, and attracted much attention to carry out the Olympic strategy, suddenly became a farce and a joke in this great rise and fall…

※※※

These are the stories everyone knows.

What everyone doesn't know is that Xie Yalong secretly met with Duikovic and questioned him whether he had used Chen Hero's affairs to try to force Zhang Wei away? Of course, Duikovic would not admit it. Duikovic even humbly expressed that if he had offended some players, he could apologize to the players one by one. But this did not save Xie Yalong's heart, and he was determined to kill.

What everyone doesn't know is that on that night, all the players participating in the training camp of the National Olympic team signed a joint letter requesting the Football Association to remove Duikovic from the position of head coach of the National Olympic team. The general content of the joint letter included: During Duikovic's tenure as head coach of the National Olympic team, his training did not reach the required intensity, and his sense of responsibility was not strong. Therefore, we strongly urge that Duikovic be removed from exercising the power of head coach of the National Olympic team.

The signatories include Zhang Wei, a player who originally had a conflict with Duikovic, as well as those "direct descendants" who were promoted and valued by Duikovic. What caused the players to betray Duikovic? When the leaders of the Football Association arrived at the National Olympic team's station, such a joint letter suddenly broke out, I am afraid it also has something to do with the Football Association's acquiescence or instruction?

What everyone doesn't know is that in the training class the next day, Duikovic said something that made everyone dumbfounded in front of the players and some media: "Many things here are not decided by me. It is not my intention that some of you can stay here, and it is not my intention that some people leave. Especially one person, he is the one who should leave the most, but he is still here, I have no power to let him leave… These days, the amount of training is sometimes large and sometimes small, and these are not arranged by me. From tomorrow onwards, I will train you so that you can't get in the car and can't get out of the car. I want to see how many people can persevere, and how many players can be left by the time of the Olympic Games!"

When he said these words, Xie Yalong was standing next to him. Xie Yalong, who originally had a smile on his face, suddenly changed his face.

Immediately afterwards, that afternoon, Duikovic was announced to be dismissed by Xie Yalong. Because Duikovic's sudden outburst had already made him decide to leave the National Olympic team's coach position.

What everyone doesn't know also includes—all of this was caused by a fool who doesn't play cards according to common sense and doesn't care about rules and regulations… Without him, maybe all of this would not have broken out for another month…

When China was in an uproar because of these things, the "fuse" was preparing to set off for Naples.

Those bad things about Chinese football have nothing to do with him, he doesn't care and doesn't participate.

Some reporters blocked Chen Hero at the Capital International Airport, wanting to hear what he thought about being blocked by the Football Association and excluded from the national team.

"If I can't go to the national team, it's not my loss, but the national team's loss." Chen Hero shrugged and said with a arrogant face.

Then he waved goodbye to those reporters, no longer talking about his short career in the national team, and disappeared into the crowd through the security gate with his beautiful and frosty spokeswoman in the eyes of many reporters.

Behind him are countless complex expressions, and a pile of mess, and in front of him is a brand new unknown journey.

Naples, the place where the ball king Maradona once fought, a giant bear from the north is about to arrive.
