Chapter 21 Change requires sacrifice
Molly waited for two days, enduring the editor-in-chief's call to press the manuscript several times a day, but did not send Rongguang's interview manuscript back. Two days later, she felt that Rongguang should have calmed down. She would not get the same answer when she asked him at this time, right?
So she planned to call Rongguang.
But before she could call Rongguang, Rongguang's phone number came.
"Sister Mo, what's going on? Why didn't I see any reports about me in your newspaper?" Rongguang asked after the phone call.
Molly's previous fantasy and luck were immediately shattered.
It seems that this glory is a decisive
"Do you really don't think about it? Rongguang? After this decision is made, you should know what consequences will be?" Despite this, Molly still reminded and persuaded Rongguang. This is as a friend, she is unwilling to watch Rongguang sink into the whirlpool.
"I thought about it for two days and had no intention of changing my decision. Sister Mo. Please log out what I said quickly. Otherwise, I will find another family."
Molly knew very well that Rongguang was the one who did what he said. Since Rongguang said so, she naturally had no choice.
"Okay... I'll send the manuscript back now."
Molly sighed, she had decided. After that, no matter how domestic public opinion criticized Rongguang, she would speak for Rongguang, so that everyone would know why Rongguang withdrew from the National Olympic Team and refused to participate in the Olympics.
No normal person can give up this opportunity to participate in the Olympics. The reason why Rongguang did this is definitely more important than his participation in the Olympics and going to the scenery.
And Molly wants all those who scold Rongguang, those who are puzzled by Rongguang's decision, and those who are angry, to know the reason behind this.
"You have to be prepared, glory. Then may..."
"There will be many people scolding me, right?" Rong Guang asked back first.
"Well..." Molly didn't know how to answer.
"It's okay, I can't hear the domestic voices," Rongguang said with a smile.
"Where is the Chinese fan who once knelt in front of you and told his admiration for you?" Molly asked
Glory's smile froze on his face.
After a long time, he whispered: "Then please help me say sorry to him...."
I naturally don’t want to play with the Football Association if I withdraw from the National Olympic Team, but the harm to Chinese fans is irreparable...
But even so, he didn't plan to change his decision, so he could only say... "I'm sorry".

When Editor-in-Chief Li got the manuscript sent back by Molly, his eyes widened.
He quickly called Molly across the ocean, but he didn't care about the jet lag.
"You're not writing it wrong, Xiao Mo?"
"No mistake, Mr. Li."
"But how is this possible... Rong... How is it possible..." Editor-in-chief Li stuttered in fear.
"I waited for two days just to hope that he could change his mind and editor-in-chief. But Rongguang is more stubborn than we all imagined. He has made this decision and does not intend to take it back, no matter what kind of storm he faces."
After listening to Molly's explanation, Editor-in-Chief Li sighed: "Why is this..."
"Everyone has his persistence, this is the persistence of Glory, Mr. Li."
"What a pity. I want to see his performance at the Beijing Olympics. I think it's so beautiful when I think about it. Now I can only think about it."

Finally, when Rongguang announced that it would not participate in the Beijing Olympics was published, as Molly expected, it caused a stir in China.
Although Molly wrote an article after the interview draft to explain why Rongguang had to make such a decision, many people still cursed Rongguang because they were not understanding and shocked.
After all, the World Youth Championship has successfully aroused the appetite of Chinese fans. Everyone is looking forward to seeing Rongguang at the Beijing Olympics three years later. They hope to see Rongguang at their doorstep to lead this age-appropriate team to create another miracle.
After all, they are too far away from the story of the Netherlands. They can only feel it day and night through the TV. They always feel like they are separated by a layer of film, which is not particularly pleasant.
And at your doorstep, I believe you can be very happy.
But at this moment, news came that Rong Guang announced that he would not participate in the Beijing Olympics, which was a bolt from the blue.
In shock, it is normal for them to do whatever they do and say...
When Molly looked at the feedback from the country, she thought to herself that the glory is in Germany and she can't hear these sounds, otherwise... tsk tsk, no matter how big the heart is, I'm afraid I can't bear it?
After reading these criticisms, Molly began to write a defense statement for Honor.
She knew that when Gengguang made this decision, he might not really think so far, but it didn't matter.
What does the media mouthpiece do?
It makes everyone think this is the truth.
As long as she tirelessly tells everyone that this is the truth, over time, everyone will really think that what she says is the truth.
The media has the power to manipulate public opinion.
Molly rarely uses this power for her own private purposes, so she always believes that her professional ethics are fine.
But this time, she is about to break the precepts.
She wants everyone to know why Rongguang did this.
He was not for his own selfishness or for his temporary pleasure.
His seemingly impulsive behavior has a deep meaning behind it
"...Is the Chinese Football Association doing few ridiculous things in recent years? Announcement to terminate the Sino-German cooperation in the 6 Olympic Stars plan is just one of them. Most of the time, when we face such ridiculous things, we often don't do anything other than cursing them. No one will be serious with them because they all know that it doesn't make sense. However, Rongguang has been playing abroad for a long time, and he has been in contact with football abroad. He may not have known Chinese football as much as an ordinary Chinese fan, so he made a very stupid decision - he wants to compare this with the Chinese Football Association."
"Everyone has seen the results of Clauchen leading the team. He led a team that was not favored and finally won the World Youth Championship. This is the only world champion in Chinese football history. After winning this championship, everyone believes that Clauchen should continue to stay in charge of the training and construction of the National Olympic Team, and eventually lead the team to the Beijing Olympics. Even Rongguang and his teammates in the National Youth Team think so. But what do we see? Because of the end of the plan by China and Germany's '6 Olympic Star, he also has the end of the plan.
He was dismissed from such a capable head coach, just because he had a stubborn temper, stubborn personality, and did not listen to the Football Association. What a shameful decision this is. If Chinese football wants to get better, is it necessary to be capable or obedient? Rongguang now wants to compete with the Chinese Football Association. He believes that only this move can make everyone pay attention to this matter to the greatest extent, otherwise this ridiculous thing may not be forgotten by everyone in the long run, just like other Chinese football absurd things we have forgotten..."
"Of course, this is a decision that seems self-harm. But can Rongguang not know the impact of this decision on him? But he still did it resolutely. Why? I think that's because there is a belief that supports him and gives him the courage to face criticism and blame. That is, the change in Chinese football must have someone to stand up, and someone will sacrifice, and there is never a revolution that will not shed blood. If you want to sacrifice, then please start from him now. Let's see when he announces that he will not participate in the Olympics, the reactions of Chinese fans and media. Everyone is discussing this matter. Although many people are scolding him, we should also note that there are still many voices criticizing the absurd decision of the Football Association... I think this may be the original intention of Rongguang to make this decision..."
"But, please forgive me, a pessimist, for my idea - I think even if Rong Guang does this, it may not necessarily change the air of Chinese football - who, as a football reporter, has seen too many dark sides in the Chinese football circle? They are like the thickest ink, which blocks my facial features, so that I can't see any light or feel any hope. So I can foresee that Rong Guang's action, in addition to attracting him many infamous, may not have substantial changes to Chinese football... But, can we give up changing Chinese football because of this?"
"No, no. Because the new era is exchanged for countless sacrifices. The sacrifice of one person is meaningless, but the sacrifice of millions of people can turn into a torrent that changes the times. Isn't this how our new China comes? If more people participate in this torrent, we can change the future of Chinese football. So please forgive me for standing opposite to most people, because I think heroes like Glory should not be insulted."

Editor-in-chief Li called Molly again: "Xiao Mo, your manuscript... is not easy to post."
Molly said: "I know, Mr. Li. But it must be revealed. Glory needs our support. For the sake of emotion and reason, we should all stand up and support him at this time. He has provided us with so many opportunities for exclusive reporting and helping us increase our sales. He has such a good relationship with me personally... I can't sit idly by.
"I know, I understand, and I actually support Glory. But you criticize the Football Association so highly, I am afraid that..."
"Revoked my press certificate? That's not under the jurisdiction of the Football Association." Molly sneered disdainfully.
"But it will bring some difficulties to us reporting on domestic football, especially the Olympic Games three years later...
"Mr. Li, if it causes trouble to the newspaper, I can resign. But you must post this article. Some things must be done, and some words must be said. Those things are done with glory, and these words should be said."
Perhaps because of the glory he wrote, Molly became a little excited.
Chapter completed!
