Chapter 67 Elder Lin's Apology
Sitting in his office the next day, there was a copy of yesterday's "Sports Weekly" on Lin Xianrong's desk, which he asked for from his granddaughter later.
He was wearing glasses, and was seriously reading the article titled "The best draft player suspected of falsifying his resume?" Zhou Yi was not a student! " report.
When he saw "...we contacted the school he claimed to be at, Qingyang City No. 1 High School, but the school said that he had never heard of this person, 'I don't know, I don't know'..." When he quoted He took off his glasses, rubbed the bridge of his nose with both hands, and sighed.
I really didn't expect...
At this moment, he suddenly heard a quarrel coming from the window.
Listen carefully, it seems to be coming from the direction of the school gate downstairs.
He got up and walked to the window. Three floors down, at the gate of Qingyang Yigao, several people were confronting each other.
Because it was class time, the campus was relatively quiet in general, so he could clearly hear the content of the quarrel downstairs.
A woman was waving her arms and shouting, "Call your principal out! Why do you say my son is not a student at your school! You can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately!"
Then she tried to break in with the man behind her, but was stopped by the guard and security: "This is Qingyang Yigao, not a place for you to mess around!"
Lin Xianrong saw this scene, turned and left the window, and walked straight to the office door.
He didn't choose to call the guard room, but chose to go there in person, because he felt that only in this way could he show his sincerity.
When he walked to the school gate, the security guard was yelling: "The leaders are very busy, how can you see them whenever you want? Who do you think you are? Call to see the principal? Our principal is not here!"
"What's wrong? Don't use such an excuse to fool us! Our children have done nothing wrong, so why doesn't your school admit it? If there is any problem, you only know how to shirk responsibility. How can a school like yours educate students?!" The woman was still very excited, and her voice was a little hoarse.
The man next to her didn't speak, but just protected her from the side, preventing the security guard from touching the woman directly.
Seeing this scene, Lin Xianrong went straight up, appeared in front of everyone, and said to the emotional woman, "I am Lin Xianrong, the principal of this school."
When the security guards saw the old principal come out, they were all frightened. The security guard who had sworn that the principal was not there even moved back reflexively...
Li Cuiyun, who was still like a crazy tigress before, suddenly lost her voice after seeing this famous principal who was often seen on local TV stations.
Zhou Jianliang, who had been helping his wife to block the security guards, stood up quickly: "Principal Lin, we are the parents of the students... We also know that it is not good to come here suddenly, but... I hope you can understand our parents' anxiety, things..."
Lin Xianrong interrupted him: "It's okay, if you have something to say, go to my office."
The security guards next to him were so frightened that they almost cried out - this is Mr. Lin Xianrong! Who can the parents of students go to his office? And he invited it on his own initiative!
They then looked at a middle-aged man and woman, dressed in ordinary clothes, no matter how you look at it... they don't look like rich people or leaders.
How could they be invited to the office by Mr. Lin?
Just like that, a group of people stared dumbfounded at Lin Xianrong leading the two parents who were making a fuss at the school gate to the teaching building.
They had to guess in their hearts whether these two parents had a lot of background, or were they poor relatives of some big leader, even Mr. Lin couldn't afford to provoke them...

After the secretary made tea for Zhou Jianliang and Li Cuiyun, he withdrew and closed the door behind him.
Now there are only three people in Lin Xianrong's office.
Zhou Jianliang and Li Cuiyun looked at each other, and finally Li Cuiyun spoke first.
"Principal Lin, we didn't mean to affect the teaching order. We were just... just too anxious... Oh, I forgot to introduce ourselves. We are Zhou Yi's parents, I am his mother, and this is his father."
Lin Xianrong actually knew what they were doing, but he didn't interrupt them, but let them talk.
"I don't know if Principal Lin knows, but yesterday we saw an influential newspaper across the country, saying that my child is not a student of Qingyang No. 1 High School, and that this matter was confirmed by Qingyang No. 1 High School... ..."
Li Cuiyun was a little anxious and spoke incoherently.
Zhou Jianliang had no choice but to add to her: "Actually, it's about a reality TV show called "The Inheritors of Greenery"...My son is a contestant of theirs, recording the show in Europe. He came to school and took two months off... ..."
The couple said one sentence to each other, and finally finished the matter.
I just wanted to ask the school if a reporter really came to the school to inquire about their son, and what the school's real answer was. They had to do this because it involved their son's reputation.
After listening to the two of them, Lin Xianrong stood up from the chair, and then came to the two of them, and then... under the surprised eyes of Zhou Jianliang and Li Cuiyun, he bowed to the two of them!
This frightened the two of them, they jumped up from their chairs, and they were about to come up to help Lin Xianrong - as the parents of the students of Qingyang No. 1 High School, they naturally knew who Lin Xianrong was.
Can Lin Xianrong bow to them?
What kind of virtue did they accumulate in their previous life?
"Don't dare..."
"I can't, I can't..."
Lin Xianrong raised his hand to stop the two parents who wanted to come up to help him: "I must apologize to you and bow this. Because this is our school's negligence, and it is also my personal negligence as the principal. So I must apologize to you Apologies, please accept my apologies for causing you and your children to be criticized."
Zhou Yi's parents stared dumbfounded at the stubborn old man and bowed seriously, saying sorry.
After bowing and apologizing, Lin Xianrong explained to the two why he did this.
Because of their mistakes at work, they responded rashly to the media, and because, as the principal of Qingyang No. 1 High School, he didn't even remember the names of the students.
"It's something that makes me very ashamed."
Seeing an old man in his seventies bow his head and say this in front of them, Zhou Yi and Li Cuiyun felt really uncomfortable.
Originally, there was still the thought of provoking the teacher to inquire about the crime, but now it is all gone.
Such a big person has apologized to himself, what else do he want to do?
The two looked at each other, and they both understood each other's meaning from each other's eyes.
So Zhou Jianliang said: "This...Since it is a misunderstanding, then we have nothing to do...Principal Lin, you are busy, so we won't bother you..."
This is to say goodbye.
But Lin Xianrong left them behind: "No, no, I just apologized, but I know there are some things that just apologizing is useless."
Zhou Jianliang and Li Cuiyun were stunned, not understanding what Lin Xianrong was going to do.
For them, they originally wanted to ask the school for an explanation. The school's attitude is so good, and they are too embarrassed to continue making trouble, so they naturally accept it as soon as it is good.
"It's like this... I personally have a little relationship in the media. Since this matter was caused by our school's own mistakes in work, then I hope you can allow our school to come forward to help Zhou Yi to prove it. You see How about it?"
Zhou Jianliang and Li Cuiyun looked at each other in surprise.
They originally thought that after finding out the situation with the school, if it was a problem with the media, they would go to the media for trouble. But when they came here and heard that it was a problem with the school, they couldn't make trouble with the media anymore. People did ask the school, but the school was wrong.
The school is responsible for this.
And the attitude of the school is very good, and they didn't intend to make any demands on the school.
As for the child's reputation, they are actually quite helpless. They are ordinary people with no power, and they don't know any big names in the cultural and media circles.
If ordinary people are slandered by the media, if the impact is not great, it may be so. Chinese people all pay attention to "forbearance". If you bear with it, things will always pass. If you take a step back, the sea and the sky will be brighter.
Ask them to give their hope to time, and wait for time to prove everything.
What Zhou Jianliang and the others can do is the latter.
After the child finishes recording, he will return to Qingyang No. 1 High School. At that time, the reporters will come to find out if he is a student of Qingyang No. 1 High School.
Unexpectedly, as the principal of Qingyang No. 1 High School, Lin Xianrong thought more than them.
He intends to clarify everything now to prevent the rumors from spreading.
This made Zhou Yi's parents unexpected and very moved.
Everyone said that Lin Xianrong was the conscience of Qingyang's educational circles, and looking at it now, he really lived up to his reputation.
Although the conscience is old, the conscience is still there.
It can be seen from such a small thing.
As the head of a school, it is already very remarkable that he is willing to apologize in person, and he can completely ignore it in the future.
"This... the school is willing to do so, and we have no objection. Of course it's good..." Li Cuiyun said with some embarrassment.

As Zhou Jianliang said, "Sports Weekly" is a very large sports newspaper with a nationwide influence.
So when such a newspaper published an article accusing Zhou Yi of falsifying his resume, one can imagine the reaction it caused.
The producer of the program, the Northern Hemisphere Film and Television Production Company, was also pushed to the forefront.
The northern hemisphere company published a reply to the "Sports Weekly" question through the media, stating that they are convinced that Zhou Yi is a middle school student player, and his resume is not falsified at all, and there is no need to falsify. At the beginning, he stood out from the audition step by step, which is true and credible.
However, this statement in the northern hemisphere also has a weakness, that is, the original audition process was not broadcast, but some graphic reports were made on the official website they established for "The Successor of the Green Field", which was not convincing enough.
They said that Zhou Yi came up a little bit from the audition, what is the evidence? Does anyone know?
In addition, even the film crew of the program as far away as Europe has been affected.
Although the young players may not know about it, but... there must be something to do, right?
So Hao Dong and Xu Tao jointly found Zhou Yi.
"Someone questioned that I'm not a student?" Zhou Yi was surprised when he heard the news. He was surprised because he didn't quite understand what was the point of questioning whether he was a student or not?
What if I am a student, and what if I am not a student? Is it because I am not a student that my skills are all fake?
"Well, this matter... It was just some sporadic voices at first, and we ignored them. Later, after "Sports Weekly" got involved, things changed..." Chief Director Xu Tao introduced Zhou Yi. "We came here absolutely not to suspect that you are falsifying your resume. We all know what your background is. We just want to discuss with you to see if there is any way to prove that you are indeed a student player. Son?"
After hearing this, Zhou Yi felt that it was a mouthful to say, and he was almost catching up with "prove that I am me".
But he still nodded, expressing that he would cooperate.
Seeing that the matter was clarified, Hao Dong waved Zhou Yi back to the room. How to cooperate with this matter will be discussed after they discuss it. The most important thing now is the match against the Manchester United youth team tomorrow. As the starting main force, Zhou Yi's rest must be guaranteed.
※※※
After Zhou Yi came out of Hao Dong's room, he came to the corner of the corridor, where his friends Sun Pan, Yang Muge and Guo Nu were waiting for him.
"How is it? What did President Hao and Director Xu tell you to do?" Sun Pan asked impatiently.
"It's not a big deal... It's just that there are domestic media questioning my identity..." Zhou Yi said.
"Is there any doubt about your identity? Are you actually the illegitimate son of a high-ranking official!" Sun Pan guessed gossipingly.
"You think too much. If there is a problem, it's not my identity. It should be my dad." Zhou Yi shook his head.
"What happened to your dad?"
"My father should be the heir of a certain red family. When he was young, he offended the family in order to marry my mother. In the end, he resolutely chose love in the face of love and the country, and eloped with my mother to Qingyang. Since then Incognito..." Zhou Yi recalled the past.
Yang Muge was frightened: "Zhou Yi, is your family that powerful?"
Sun Pan pouted beside him: "He's talking nonsense, do you believe him?"
Guo Nu nodded: "That's right."
Zhou Yi also spread his hands with a smile: "How about this story? I'm almost making up a three-million-word urban face-slapping essay."
Only then did Yang Muge realize that he had been cheated by Zhouyi again, and he patted his forehead angrily.
"Then, what are you going to do? This, this matter?"
"The program team hopes that I will cooperate with them to prove my identity."
"How to prove this?" Sun Pan was surprised, "Standing in front of the camera, he said: 'Hi, everyone, my name is Zhou Yi, I am seventeen years old, I was born on February 22, 1991, I am from Qingyang City, my father What's my name, what's my mother's name, I go to Chacha Middle School, my grades are not good, and I can't even pass the college entrance examination, so I come to play football...'How stupid!"
"It's pretty silly." Zhou Yi nodded, "Besides, Sun Pan, my academic performance is not bad. I can get the first place in everything. I come to play football because I love to play football! It doesn't look like you have nowhere to go but come to play football !"
"Nonsense, I just want to prove to those who thought that I would be useless if I left the basketball team, geniuses can be equally successful!" Sun Pan snorted.
"Okay, let's go back and rest." Yang Muge reminded everyone that it's getting late. "Tomorrow there is still a match against Manchester United..."
"Hey, actually Manchester United is not strong..."

PS, I found out today that someone said that I was actually not the headmaster, but the black "Sports Weekly".
Oh, that was really a misunderstanding. I didn't intend to blackmail "Sports Weekly". This matter is just an introduction to one of the last themes of this volume. If you think I'm going out of my way to hack Sportsweek, you're wrong, it's just incidental.
What's more, what I wrote is just one of the characteristics of the domestic media, and it's not black.
I won’t say more about the questions in these chapters. I hope that everyone can find the answers in the novel by themselves, instead of giving you a comprehensive analysis in PS. Then there will be no fun in reading.
It is true that many people just skim it, feel watery, feel bored, and feel that there is nothing to talk about.
But I believe that someone will still see something from it.
People who don't see it don't have to rush to scold the water or something, it doesn't have to be about football to be unpopular. I don't understand what these chapters are for, but when I patiently read the last chapter of the first volume, I naturally understand.
To be honest, if I always have to explain to readers what I am writing this paragraph for and what is behind it when I write a novel... that would be really boring, it's not a novel, it's an instruction manual.
There is a golden house in the book, not to say that a 24K gold house with three bedrooms and one living room pops out when you open the book.
There is Yan Ruyu in the book, and it doesn't mean that when you open the book, a beautiful woman in sexy clothes pops out of the book and hugs you.
There are thousands of millet in the book, and it doesn’t mean that when you open the book, there will be rice flour oil in your kitchen...
Not so straightforward.
