Chapter 265 This Bear Child
Competition among students at sports schools is also fierce. Their goal is to compete and win. But with so many students nationwide, how can everyone participate? Therefore, the competition within the schools' qualifying tournaments is also fierce.
Where there is competition, there are means. Although the school punishes students who use unfair means to compete severely, such things still happen from time to time. However, Gu Sanjing did not expect that someone would set their sights on her.
It’s not that she is difficult to deal with, but her performance has always been good. This time, her coach even told her privately that she should strive for the championship.
With such good results, no one would normally target her because as a key talent, both the school and the coach value her very much.
It’s just that the person who used the means this time was more ruthless and directly reported the coach.
Gu Jianguo hadn't expected anything like this either. He received a call from the school asking him to come to the school to cooperate with the investigation. Thinking something had happened to Sanjing, he rushed to the school on his bicycle.
After entering the conference room, he first found his daughter, walked over and pulled her up and down to examine her. Seeing that she was intact, he felt relieved. The two people from the Provincial Sports Commission who came to investigate the situation were speechless when they saw him like this. "Can we eat your daughter?"
"Comrade Gu Jianguo, we are investigating some things and hope you will cooperate." The middle-aged man took a look at the owner of the legendary Guangming Supermarket and made an evaluation in his mind. He seemed to be quite rich indeed.
Comrade Gu Jianguo was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, black pants, and shiny leather shoes. There wasn't much to his outfit, but the key point was the phone hanging from his waist. It wasn't much bigger than a palm, but it was incredibly expensive, costing at least over a thousand yuan.
More than a thousand! Several years’ salary for a worker.
Seeing that his daughter was fine, Gu Jianguo sat down and asked, "What happened?"
"Someone reported that you bribed Leshan for fifty yuan to get through the customs. Is this true?" asked the middle-aged man.
Gu Jianguo knew what was going on the moment he heard it. Although he wasn't very familiar with the competition within the sports school, he knew that someone would do anything to get a chance to compete.
He immediately said, "I did give Coach Guan fifty dollars, but that was two or three years ago. Besides, that fifty dollars was the salary I paid Coach Guan to train San Jing. Is that considered a bribe?"
"Fifty yuan is a lot of money!" said another middle-aged man. Gu Jianguo leaned back in his chair and looked at him and asked, "How much do you pay for hiring a coach? Is there a standard?"
Seeing the middle-aged man shaking his head, Gu Jianguo continued: "Since there is no standard, I will definitely give it to Coach Guan according to my value. I think Coach Guan is worth this price."
The two middle-aged men exchanged a glance, and after a moment one of them said, "We understand the situation. Therefore, Gu Sanjing's eligibility to participate in the provincial games will be temporarily revoked. It will be reinstated once the matter is fully investigated."
Gu Jianguo was so angry after hearing this: "The competition is about to start. When will you be able to investigate this matter thoroughly? If you don't investigate this matter clearly, my daughter will never be able to participate in the competition."
Bullshit!
Of course, Boss Gu considered himself a civilized person and should speak politely. He said, "Is this your result?"
The two middle-aged men looked at each other again, and then said, "Yes."
"Okay," Gu Jianguo stood up. "If I'm not satisfied with your results, I can appeal, right? I'm a fair and honest person. When I appeal, should I sue you two? Or your leaders? Or both? I was thinking that since my daughter is going to participate in a competition, I would donate some money to the sports meet. Let's not talk about anything else now."
It was his youngest who suggested donating money to the sports meet, saying it would be watched by many people and would be featured in the newspapers. Donating some money to hang banners or posters of their supermarket at certain locations around the meet would be great publicity.
He was planning this? Who could have imagined it would turn out like this? Donating money? Not a cent. A provincial sports meet with so many twists and turns is truly enough.
The two middle-aged men hadn't expected Gu Jianguo to actually donate money to the Games, but the words had already been spoken, and changing them now would be a slap in the face. Besides, reporting was a complex matter, and they had no say in the matter.
Gu Jianguo dragged Gu Sanjing out of the meeting room, but after just two steps, Coach Guan stopped him. He walked over and said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, Sanjing. Someone is targeting me."
"What happened?" Gu Jianguo didn't mean to complain. Since the matter had already happened, there was no need to complain everywhere. Solving the problem was the key.
Guan Leshan sighed, "It's all because of the promotion."
A director of the sports school was about to retire, leaving a vacant position. Who would take it? Guan Leshan was the most likely candidate, firstly because of his long teaching experience, secondly because of his strong professional skills, and thirdly because he had Gu Sanjing under his wing.
Everyone can see Gu Sanjing's talent, hard work, and achievements. If Gu Sanjing can win the championship this time, the position of director will definitely belong to Guan Leshan.
Of course, there are more than one person who want to be the director, and some people use tricks to compete for success. Some time ago, Guan Leshan was drinking with someone and talked about Guangming Supermarket, saying that the supermarket's business was booming and it should be making a lot of money.
Guan Leshan had drunk a bit too much and said casually, "The boss of Guangming Supermarket is really generous. I just gave Sanjing some guidance and he gave me fifty yuan."
He never thought that he would be taken advantage of with just this one sentence.
After hearing this, Gu Jianguo patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't be discouraged. We can't just let go of the things we haven't done."
Anyway, his San Jing had to participate in this competition. If not, he would use money to buy it. He didn't believe that the Sports Committee didn't want sponsorship. The donation mentioned earlier was just laying the groundwork.
Guan Leshan wasn't the type to resist being bullied. He said, "I'll use my connections to get some help. Boss Gu, you have connections, so please use yours as well."
"Of course I should. I'll think of a way when I get back." Gu Jianguo patted Guan Leshan's shoulder again, then pulled Sanjing aside and whispered to her, "Don't be afraid. Dad will definitely let you participate in the competition. Go back and train as usual. If anyone bullies you, tell Dad."
Gu Sanjing was young, after all. She felt deeply disappointed when the middle-aged man said she would be disqualified. She had put in a lot of effort for this competition. Now that her father said he would definitely let her participate, she felt relieved.
She asked, "What are you going to do?"
There was nothing he couldn't say in front of his daughter. Gu Jianguo whispered again, "If it really doesn't work, I'll just throw money at them. How can the people from the Sports Committee not want money?"
Gu Sanjing felt more relieved after hearing him say this, but this behavior was indeed very nouveau riche. She was straightforward and said what she wanted to say, "No wonder Xiao Si always said you can't change your nouveau riche habits."
Gu Jianguo: “”
What should I do if I want to beat up this naughty kid?
