Chapter 3 Authority

Gao Zheng looked down at his left foot, and his ear was the voice of Danny Toniachini, a MD, the leader of the club's medical laboratory's strength and sports rehabilitation training team.

"Your left foot. The problem lies with your left foot... To be honest, I think it is unlikely to deal with professional football anymore... We analyzed all your physical data after your serious injury in 2008. There is a very cruel fact. I think we must tell you that this is a responsible attitude towards you... I don't think you can continue to play professional football with your current physical condition. If you don't want to spend the rest of your life in the future, or be with crutches, the best way now is to terminate the professional football path..."

When Gao Zheng heard this, he raised his head and stared at the head of the Milan Laboratory in front of him with wide eyes.

As a player who has played in AC Milan for three years, he knows the weight of Milan Laboratory in this club. Every message about the health of the players sent here will attract the attention of the club and even the entire football world.

How many players have lost the opportunity to join AC Milan just because of a word from the Milan laboratory.

Milan Laboratory is the authority in this field...

But now, this authority tells himself that it is best not to try to continue playing professional football, but what else can he do if he doesn't play professional football? Isn't this going to retire by himself? He is only eighteen years old...

Philip Galli, the director of AC Milan youth training next to him, saw Gao Zheng's expression, coughed, interrupting Toniachini's words. If he continued, he was afraid that the child in front of him would cry directly.

"That's how it is, high. We really like the talent you show, but unfortunately you suffered a serious injury at the most critical moment... I'm sorry, it was a tragedy. The club also tried to give you time and patience to help you recover, but..." Galley hesitated for a moment and continued.

"The data from the Milan laboratory tells us that something is wrong with your body... it is not a big problem and will not affect your health. As long as you don't continue playing football - it is no problem to play football. As long as it is not professional football - I hope you can understand the club's decision. After all, every young talent is our precious asset. If we are not really helpless, we are unwilling to make such a decision... The contract has expired for half a year, and the club will sign you up for a coaching training class in this six months. Not being able to continue professional football does not mean leaving football completely. I personally hope that you can continue to pursue your football dream in another profession..."

He said as he saw Gao Zheng shook his head.

"No need, terminate the contract. terminate the contract in advance." Gao Zheng said in a hoarse voice.

Galley didn't expect Gao Zheng to ask for an early termination of the contract: "Actually, it's okay not to..."

Gao Zheng pointed to Toniachini: "Didn't he just say it? If I don't want to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair, or be with crutches for the rest of my life, it's better to terminate the professional football path. I really don't want to sit in a wheelchair for the rest of my life, nor do I walk with crutches. Since the contract is still half a year left, what else should I stay? Will I increase my chances of being disabled?"

Galli had nothing to say, and he turned his eyes to Tonyachini, who shrugged and spread his hands at him.

So he sighed and nodded: "Okay, after negotiation between the two parties, they agreed to end the contract six months in advance..."

Gao Zheng, who was standing in front of Yang Longwen, said dejectedly: "But Milan Laboratory said..."

"Bad Milan Laboratory!" Yang Longwen suddenly cursed.

Gao Zheng couldn't understand Director Yang's attitude: "Old man, they are authoritative..."

"Bad authority!" Director Yang interrupted Gao Zheng's words with a big scolding again. "Authoritative must be right? Authority will not make mistakes? What if the authority is wrong this time? You have been with me for a year, has your left foot injury recurred? You have played so many irregular games, have you ever felt uncomfortable with your left foot? Have you ever thought you were not sure about it!"

Facing Yang Zhi's scolding, Gao Zheng remained silent.

Seeing him like this, Yang Wenlong snorted heavily: "It's all my mother-in-law who plays football, you're just a little bit of success!"

After scolding him, he got up from the ground and patted the dust on his butt.

"Pick up the broom yourself."

The old man turned around and walked away.

Gao Zheng stood there and did not go to pick up the broom, but stared at Director Yang's staggering steps.

He suddenly remembered something that the verdict of Milan Laboratory was not the first time he had been sentenced to "death sentence" since he played football.

When he was ten years old, because he was very tall and his muscles and nerves did not keep up, which led to a dissonance in his entire body. He was taller than his peers, but his movements were slow and clumsy. His teammates gave him the nickname "Silly Big Man" and ridiculed him. He was so angry that he fought with the person who led the lead in calling him like this.

When his parents led him to apologize to the beaten man, the coach said to his parents: "Take him back, don't waste money, he is not a football player..."

In Gao Zheng's young mind, the coach is authority. When the authority says so, his sky has collapsed.

The person who helped him support the sky again was the old man, Director Yang.

It was him who came to the door to persuade Gao Zheng's parents to let him continue to learn football, and patted his chest to assure Gao Zheng's parents that this child was a genius with a talent far beyond ordinary people.

Coach Yang is not a professional coach and has no reputation in Chinese football. He is just a coach from an ordinary football school.

The reason why he knew Gao Zheng was because there was a competition between Gao Zheng’s football school and his football school two years ago. In that game, he witnessed the talent shown by the young Gao Zheng. So after hearing that Gao Zheng was persuaded to leave by the previous football school, he came to the door and recruited Gao Zheng, who was in despair.

Gao Zheng remembered that the first sentence that Director Yang found him and asked was exactly the same as today: "Do you still want to play football?"

How did I answer him at that time?

He was determined and without hesitation, straightened his chest and almost shouted: "I want to play football!"

Why can’t I say this now?

Did you be young and ignorant at that time and have never seen the cruelty and coldness of this world?

"Bad bullshit! Fuck is cold! You little kid didn't pretend to be deep in me even when you were twenty years old! You pretend to be strong when you have seen a world?!"

Suddenly the old man's roar exploded in his ears, which scared Gao Zheng - is the old man going back?

Gao Zheng came to his senses and found that he was still on the court. The sky was already safe and dark, and the surroundings were pitch black. Where was the old man who returned?

There was indeed a sound in my ears, but it was not the old man's roar, but the ringtone of my cell phone from my pants pocket.

It was called by Director Zhao.

As soon as the phone was connected, Gao Zheng heard Director Zhao's excited voice:

"Brother Zheng Zheng! There is a big business coming!"
