During the Snowstorm

Chapter 51: Tide of Fate (5)

Lin Yiyang covered his eyes with the back of his hand, suppressing this impulsive thought.

The two have confirmed their relationship for more than a year and a month, but they have only met for 28 days today. Because he seldom saw him, he tried his best to let her see the best of himself. And that Lin Yiyang, who is also irritable and frustrated, decadent and unconfident, has bad mood and depression, she has hardly seen it.

Moreover, she had just graduated and was twenty-two years old. If he were Yin Guo's parents, she would not be happy that her daughter entered marriage so early.

Lin Yiyang kept silent, but Yin Guo fell asleep first. After all, it was a long flight back, and it was terribly exhausting.

In the dream, the knock on the door was heavier than the other, Yin Guo opened his eyes in a daze, and Lin Yiyang was also awakened by the knock on the door.

Outside the door, Wu Wei coughed: "Meng Xiaodong called Jiang Yang, and Jiang Yang asked me to wake you up... Don't be too late, I just returned home today, and the family is still waiting."

Lin Yiyang raised his wrist and looked at his watch: "Got it."

I thought I would wake up in the afternoon, but I didn't expect to sleep until dark.

After Wu Wei finished speaking, he knew each other and flashed people.

Lin Yiyang closed the door, took out a bottle of mineral water from a box in the corner, and unscrewed it to moisten his throat.

Why are you sleeping until dark?

Yin Guo didn't expect that he and Lin Yiyang could sleep together until this time. She rubbed her shoulders and walked to the window to get some fresh air. From this angle, she could see the big iron gate and the second-story building next to it.

After looking at the scenery for a while, he sighed: "You are much bigger than the old North City."

"In the past, there was only the second floor," Lin Yiyang turned on the light. "The year I quit, Jiang Yang took over. Everything in front of you is his credit." This Yin Guo knew, and his cousin also said it.

Jiang Yang was very young when he took over.

I can't make any money, it all depends on my passion and true love.

"The surgery on his arm should have been done a long time ago, and he has been dragging it on for the sake of the club," Lin Yiyang said with emotion, "His best ten years have been distracted and distributed to Dongxincheng, otherwise his personal performance will be lost. better."

He sincerely hoped that Jiang Yang could be free for a few years, simply play games, and compensate Jiang Yang for his hard work over the past ten years.

"Why did you suddenly pick up Dongxincheng this time?" This was Yin Guo's confusion all the way back.

"I didn't want to accept it at first," said Lin Yiyang, "one is ashamed of the teacher, and the other is that he has a different philosophy from Jiang Yang. He wants to use the appeal of star players to expand the industry, and I want to cultivate a kind of like snooker in In the United Kingdom, the cultural atmosphere of Nine Ball in the United States. So when I returned to China, I wanted to go it alone, but after talking to the teacher twice, I found that the teacher supported me.

The teacher's original words at that time were only five words - just do it when you think of it.

He Lao and Lin Yiyang have the most similar temperaments, they can convince him the most, and naturally change his mind.

***

Because Meng Xiaodong was urging her, Lin Yiyang didn't let her stay longer.

The two went downstairs all the way.

At this time, the first floor of Dongxincheng is open to the public, and there will be fans from the society to play. Some players from Dongxincheng who are not well-off will do sparring and earn some extra money.

There are also such players in Beicheng, and they are billed on an hourly basis.

Yin Guo walked to the lobby and saw a familiar figure, it turned out to be Liu Xiran, the runner-up in the US Open... She obviously came back today, but she didn't go home to rest, but was here as a sparring partner to make money.

"Isn't she alone?" Yin Guo remembered that this player was fighting alone.

"She used to be from Dongxincheng, and then retired. Because her family was sick and needed money, she came out to fight again," Lin Yiyang explained to her, "Jiang Yang asked her to come here for free training, and also registered her as a sparring coach. But it doesn't count that she is from Dongxincheng, so her bonus won't need to be given to Dongxincheng."

This was also the last person Jiang Yang received before he stepped down as a big boss.

Hearing what Lin Yiyang said, she appreciates Jiang Yang even more. Being able to lead Dongxincheng for more than ten years, from a teenager to a middle-aged person, is definitely not something that ordinary people can do.

In Jiang Yang, she saw the real "Jianghu morality", which is also the characteristic of Dongxincheng.

On the way to take her home, Lin Yiyang always wore a Bluetooth headset and made calls while driving.

Hang up one, the next one starts immediately.

Yin Guo listened silently, not wanting to make a sound to disturb him, just staring at the road ahead, afraid that he would drive by mistake.

Obviously she misunderstood Lin Yiyang's point - Lin Yiyang will never go wrong in the way of Yin Guo's family. As soon as the car turned into the community, Yin Guo said, "Let's drive to the underground garage. There are few people there, so I can talk to you a little more."

Lin Yiyang turned the steering wheel, and then walked out of the community and drove into the underground garage through the side door.

The past two days have been cloudy and rainy, and the garage is semi-open, resulting in heavy water vapor.

It was the first time that Lin Yiyang drove off the car and found their parking space according to Yin Guo's instructions.

"You remember this location," she pointed to a stairway behind her. "Go in through that door and take the elevator, which is the corridor of our house."

Lin Yiyang glanced back and nodded.

He had too many things on his mind all night, and sent his girlfriend out of the house. Just after he realized it, he took Yin Guo to Dongxincheng. Except for sleeping on her lap for an afternoon, he didn't say a word. The rare dialogue is all about Dongxincheng.

He looked at her hand holding the backpack, held it up, inserted his fingers between her fingers without a word, and said in a hoarse voice, "I don't have time to accompany you."

These four words almost forced Yin Guo's tears to come out, and he felt so distressed.

She pressed his other hand on him: "I want to accompany you... but I won't comfort people. I don't want you to accompany me at all."

He smiled.

You are here, that's enough.

***

After leaving Yin Guo's house, Lin Yiyang first went back to his ballroom and packed half a box of clothes.

Sun Yao sadly made a pasta for Lin Yiyang, fried a few chicken wings, watched Lin Yiyang finish eating, put away the plate, and followed him out of the club, standing on the street: "You Are you really going?"

Lin Yiyang patted his head and said, "I won't leave you alone, I'll be busy with this first."

Sun Yao also felt that it was not good, mainly because he was reluctant to bear Lin Yiyang.

He followed Lin Yiyang back to China because he wanted to do things with him. Although he has more power now, he is also flustered, and he is even more flustered without Lin Yiyang sitting on his back.

"The other side has just taken over in the past two months, and some are busy," Lin Yiyang patted his back, heavy, "Don't drop the chain for me here. I'm exhausted, it won't do you any good."

"Oh."

Sun Yao looked at Lin Yiyang's car aggrievedly and disappeared on the street in the night.

***

When Lin Yiyang returned to the club, it was already 8:30.

There were three consecutive meetings in the office on the second floor, all coaches, leaders of several groups of athletes, and finally the person in charge of logistics, finance, canteen and dormitory of Dongxincheng.

ten o'clock.

Lin Yiyang finally walked out of his office and went to the public bathroom on the second floor next door to take a hot shower.

Eleven o'clock.

In the dark of night, as the person in charge of Dongxincheng, he finally took a breath.

Walking out of the door of the small building on the second floor, he was wearing black sports trousers and a white T-shirt. He was fresh and clean, with only a black watch on his right wrist, and walked along the path to the main building.

Dongxincheng has changed, and it has not changed.

When he left, there was only a plaque with "Dongxincheng Ball Club" hanging outside the door on the second floor of the main building. The top floor was a warehouse, the first floor was a bathroom, and the second floor here was an abandoned land.

The fence has not changed. He used the moonlight to take a closer look. It is certain that it has been painted with new paint. However, on a small brick wall every ten meters, there are still inscriptions left by the old friends playing together.

It is still there today, and someone must have specially instructed him to stay. He guessed that it was either the teacher or Jiang Yang.

After entering the main building, the children of the youth group went home early at this time.

Near the rest area on the first floor, sitting around the coffee table are all the brothers except Jiang Yang. After disbanding this morning, they all went to rest for a long time, and now they are all back

Chen Anan was still suffering from jet lag, sitting sleepy on the innermost part of the couch, leaning her head back and dozing off against the wall; Lin Lin was looking through the training records of the nine-ball in the afternoon. She was the person in charge of the nine-ball. Routine work; Fan Wencong and Wu Wei were playing ball, practicing their hands by the table closest to the rest area.

Lin Yiyang picked a single sofa and sat down. Everyone gathered around the coffee table and waited for him to talk about business.

"I just took over, I don't want to make a big move, just a few preparations, and everyone will discuss it together." He sincerely announced the plan under the banner of "discussion", "Starting this year, the snooker team will meet every year. Thirty places will be sent to the UK for closed training."

The birthplace of snooker is in the UK, where both the cultural atmosphere and the training methods are the best. Therefore, famous players will train at their own expense every year, or live there directly. After all, the most valuable games of snooker are also there. Although it is the most cutting-edge training method, the cost is not low.

The first thing Lin Yiyang did, everyone understood, was spending money.

"Also, I want to host a new competition," Lin Yiyang added, "now this city starts."

Well, it costs money again.

Hosting a competition is not a trivial matter. There are often precedents where sponsors withdraw funds and the competition disappears directly. According to Lin Yiyang's meaning, to undertake it, it must not be as simple as one session, but it must continue.

He wants to expand the influence of this industry, and he really has to start from the competition to attract the public.

He saw that everyone understood, and came to the third point: "The last one is relatively simple. I want to systematically build our star players and coaches." Lin Yiyang rested his elbows on his knees, playing with the green in his hand. Xiaofan explained, "For example, our coach Xin is very necessary for publicity. As for him, he has no education, graduated from elementary school, worked in farm work, worked wheat, worked as a miner, and opened a small shop. , he only started to learn billiards at the age of 22. But who is the apprentice he taught?"

Lin Yiyang pointed at Lin Lin: "I have taught Lin Lin who is second in the world and has won three consecutive championships in one year. And your junior sister, didn't you rank first in the world?"

Lin Lin nodded: "My teacher is very good at teaching people."

Although this coach's personal best is a national champion, that doesn't prevent him from teaching terrific students.

Lin Yiyang went on to say: "In order to attract the public's attention to a sports event and let the whole people see us, we must share these legendary experiences. Only in this way can we continue to have a steady stream of reserve forces and young people to join in. Although this road will be long, But we can take one step at a time, and maybe in 20 or 30 years, our billiards will be able to reach the level of table tennis and diving.

Lin Yiyang stopped for a while, and then said: "Dongxincheng is willing to take an extra step for this industry without being utilitarian."

After Lin Yiyang finished speaking, Mao Yao picked a grapefruit from the fruit bowl on the coffee table.

I didn't say anything, I started peeling and eating, which means: I'm done.

Of course, everyone also understands that the third thing is to spend money.

Whoever will give you propaganda, all the money will be thrown out. In the past, these coaches and players were famous in the circle, and the public did not pay attention. Occasionally one or two out of the circle is not bad.

"Dongxincheng's money-burning plan for the next three years." Fan Wen hurriedly concluded.

"So where does the money come from?" Chen An'an, an honest man, took the initiative to ask.

Lin Yiyang laughed harmlessly, took out his cell phone from his trouser pocket, and the next second, everyone's cell phone rang.

"I took the time in the past two days to make the competition schedule for you. Everyone is different. Look carefully and arrange it." He said lightly. Of course his schedule is fuller.

The dense competition covers both domestic and foreign, and 60% of them are people who can't go there.

Well-known players usually only go to large-scale competitions, in order to earn points. What Lin Yiyang listed were all new competitions from various countries. In order to attract well-known players, the organizers gave a lot of bonuses, but unfortunately they didn't go to the world ranking points.

Lin Yiyang's attitude is very obvious, those who are able work hard, and they are about to start making money.

Everyone who understood the spirit put down their mobile phones and began to divide up the food left in the fruit bowl. Only Chen Anan was still looking at the itinerary: "But I'm retired."

Everyone looked at Chen An'an in unison: What are you thinking? Brothers make money, do you still want to bask in the sun?

Chen An'an coughed, found a bunch of grapes, picked them down one by one, and ate them silently.

Lin Yiyang felt that the conversation tonight was very effective and efficient. He ate the rest of the grapefruit in a few mouthfuls. Two unexpected WeChat messages popped up on the phone.

Fruit in the forest: My grandmother said...

Fruit in the forest: Please come to my house for dinner on weekends.

***

Yin Guo was lying on her small sofa, eating grapefruit.

Seeing that he didn't reply for a long time, I guessed that he had misunderstood, thinking that he implied that he came to see his parents. She devoured the grapefruit in small bites and couldn't hold back, so she texted him again.

Lin Li Guo: I was chatting with my grandma, and she complimented you a few times.

Fruit in the forest: I guess... that's what I said.

Lin Liguo: She also heard from my brother that you have been taking care of him in New York for the past year and wanted to thank you.

Fruit in the forest: Don't think too complicated.

Lin Liguo: If you don't want to come, I'll talk to her tomorrow to say hello.

Still wanting to explain, he suddenly responded.

Lin: Good.

Lin: The weekend is over.

Lin: Friday night? Saturday?

Lin: Sunday is fine. Anytime, any time.
