Chapter 41 Defensive Counterattack(2/2)
Someone ran the problem to Chu Zhongtian. Everyone knows that Chu Zhongtian and Russell have a very good personal relationship. They are friends who have known each other for more than ten years.
"Boss, do you know when the boss will be back?"
Although Chu Zhongtian is the head coach, when he was not the head coach, the players called him "Boss". He is the captain of the team and the leader of everyone. He deserves the name "Boss". The title of "Boss" belongs to head coach Russell.
Chu Zhongtian turned around and shrugged at his teammate who asked him: "I don't know when he will come back, but like you, I hope he will come back before the last playoff..."
He did not tell them the truth because at this moment of morale he was worried that news of Russell's resignation would severely hit the morale of the team.
Who said they wanted to upgrade? Now that their leaders are going to give up, what reason do the players have to persevere?
He chose to lie.
The player who had not gotten the answer from Chu Zhongtian was a little disappointed. He sat down and shrugged: "I really hope his dad can wake up early..."
The players simply thought that as long as Russell's father woke up, their head coach would come back.
Chu Zhongtian turned his head and looked at the disappointed players, then he withdrew his gaze. He suddenly had an idea... He took out his cell phone and said to the players: "Since everyone hopes so much, let's just call him and tell him what you want to say to him?"
The players were stunned for a moment, and then cheered.
"This is a good idea!"
Chu Zhongtian called Russell's mobile phone number. They had never contacted each other since the quarrel that day.
The phone rang out with a signal waiting for the answer. Chu Zhongtian signaled everyone to calm down, and the players in the bus immediately closed their mouths obediently.
Chu Zhongtian didn't wait for too long, and the phone was answered. He heard Russell's somewhat surprised voice: "Chu?"
"Hi, Alai. I know you are a little surprised. It must be early in the morning at this time. I'm sorry that I'd disturb you so late, but your players have something to tell you..."
Russell was even more surprised when he heard Chu Zhongtian say this...
