Chapter 1757: Chapter 922: Regaining Confidence, Moving Forward with Determination

As soon as the match ended, Ding Yue’s phone received countless calls, making it continuously busy.

"Hello, Principal Ding, congratulations! Congratulations to your Feiyue Team for representing the national football team and securing this victory against the Korean Team. This victory is truly inspiring."

On the other end of the line was Wan Hao from the General Administration of Sports.

"Thank you, Minister Wan. We must also thank the General Administration of Sports for its strong support in reshaping the national team with our Feiyue Team."

Ding Yue humbly said, also expressing his gratitude to Wan Hao.

After all, it was Wan Hao who had resolutely advocated within the General Administration of Sports to replace and restructure the national football team, ultimately achieving a consensus and allowing the players from Feiyue Football Club to take the field, replacing the previous national team players and forming a brand-new national team.

Otherwise, how could they have had the chance to win this match?

"It seems I was right about you. Your Feiyue Football Club truly has strong capabilities. I hope you’ll keep up the great work in the upcoming World Cup Pre-Match. Don’t slack off now. Whether we make it to the World Cup this time depends on you."

Wan Hao was very hopeful about the current national team.

After all, the national team has now managed to beat a strong Asian team like Korea, which means the upcoming match with Japan might also have a chance of victory.

And if they could consecutively defeat both the Korean Team and the Japanese Team in the Asian qualifiers, breaking into the World Cup would be no difficult feat.

"Rest assured, Minister Wan. Our Feiyue Team and the national team will definitely give it everything we’ve got."

Ding Yue said with determination.

Not only were Wan Hao and others expecting the national team to break through in the World Cup Pre-Match and enter the World Cup, but Ding Yue was also very hopeful.

"Alright, I assume Principal Ding, you must be receiving lots of congratulatory messages now, so I won’t disturb you any further. Goodbye."

"Alright, goodbye, Minister Wan."

After hanging up on Wan Hao, Ding Yue received a series of calls from Rao Wanzhi of the General Administration of Sports and others from the Football Association like Li Huimin and Fu Changyun, all calling to congratulate the national team’s victory against the Korean Team.

This victory was indeed worth celebrating.

After returning home, Ding Yue was planning a big celebration banquet to congratulate his Feiyue Football Club’s young players, and also to distribute bonuses. This match really made the national team proud; they deserved the bonuses. Ding Yue had promised each player that if they scored in the World Cup Pre-Match, there would be bonuses, and winning a match would also have bonuses. Although the bonuses weren’t huge, they were enough to motivate these young players.

Many more calls kept coming.

One call was from Principal Xu Dongcheng of Westlight University.

Principal Xu Dongcheng was an old friend of Ding Yue.

"Principal Ding, congratulations, congratulations! I just watched the match live. Our players played exceptionally well in this match; it was really satisfying!"

On the phone, Principal Xu Dongcheng seemed very excited.

It’s important to know that Principal Xu Dongcheng is a long-time soccer fan. Over the years, as a fan of the national team, his disappointment has been unspeakable.

Now, seeing the new national team rise and defeat the former strong rival, the Korean Team, how wonderful is that?

"Hahahaha, Principal Xu, you watched the match too, huh? How would you rate the performance of our young lads from Mist City Arts and Science University?"

Ding Yue asked Principal Xu Dongcheng with a smile.

"To be honest, if it were out of ten, I’d give them about eight points, but compared to the previous national team, I’d give a full score. The change is truly remarkable. Of course, the previous national team had its drawbacks for various reasons, but the young players cultivated by Mist City Arts and Science University are genuinely impressive."

Principal Xu Dongcheng said sincerely.

"Yes, I think eight points are quite reasonable. They still have plenty of room for growth in the future." Ding Yue replied calmly, with a smile.

"Principal Ding, this call is not just to congratulate your Feiyue Football Club; there’s also something I wish to discuss with you."

Principal Xu Dongcheng said with a smile.

"Oh? Please, go ahead, Principal Xu."

Ding Yue and Principal Xu Dongcheng were already old acquaintances, and their collaboration extended to many fields of private university education. Moreover, some employees in Feiyue Group’s frontline manufacturing sector were actually from Xu Dongcheng’s former Westlight University. After all, Westlight University had established a cooperative relationship with Mist City Arts and Science University several years ago.

"It’s like this: the development of domestic football will surely be a long journey. Building a solid foundation is crucial, and cultivating excellent players is indispensable. At Westlight University, we are also actively training players. At the same time, we have deeply invested in the youth training system set up by Feiyue Group in which Principal Ding is involved. I was wondering, since you have more experience, could we find some time to come over and learn from you? What do you think, Principal Ding? Could you help arrange this?"
