The incident of Xie Hui's drunken blunder, although it has come to an end, has triggered widespread regret and deep thought.
On August 22, Xie Hui, the head coach of Nantong Zhiyun Salon, released a statement on his personal social media platform announcing his resignation. This decision stems from the storm of public opinion triggered by the incident of his drunken blundering and being secretly photographed. However, the lessons and reflections left behind by this incident cannot be ignored.
Video exposed, words out of place
Xie Hui said bluntly in the video, "Chengdu Rongcheng Salon invested 200 million dollars, useless, do not understand the ball. We can only press them to play and make them presentable."
He went on to say, "Certain salons in the Chinese Super League invest tens of billions of dollars, while we (Nantong Zhiyun) only need 10 million dollars a season. I hope you guys are sober and don't mess around." The video shows that Xie Hui is clearly drunk, and someone next to him keeps chiming in.
Nantong Zhiyun Salon then released a statement that Xie Hui decided to suspend his coaching position due to his inappropriate remarks made after drinking at a private party, which caused an adverse social impact.
Xie Hui made a resignation statement on social media platforms, saying that it was a difficult decision as he has always seen himself as one with the team. He especially apologized to the players, saying that he was irresponsible to them by not accompanying them to the end.
Controversy over clandestine photography
Regarding the controversy caused by Xie Hui's drunken remarks, many netizens are concerned about the behavior of the person who stole the video. They believe that regardless of whether Xie Hui's remarks were exaggerated or not, the behavior of secretly filming and uploading the video is not desirable.
Xie Hui was a former international footballer of the Chinese national football team, and after his retirement, he served as the coach of Shenhua and Harbor. After this incident, he publicly apologized to the units involved and reserved the right to legal action.
When announcing his resignation, Xie Hui also said that he should be more professional and cautious in his words and deeds. He hoped that such things would become less and less frequent and would not affect people's sense of security in their daily lives.
Reflection: public figures need to be careful what they say and do
The incident of Xie Hui's "drunkenness" is a painful lesson for public figures. As a public figure, one should always pay attention to one's status and quality, especially in public places, and be more cautious in one's words and deeds.
In addition, as a soccer practitioner, performance should be used as a criterion for judgment, not the size of input. Nantong Zhiyun as a not too big investment in the Central League, Xie Hui in the drunken team invested 10 million yuan to get the team to the fifth place, as a standard to judge the level of coaching, obviously some bias.
The incident of Xie Hui's "drunken blunder" reminds us that when evaluating coaches and teams, we should focus on actual performance rather than simply relying on the size of the input. Only in this way can the cause of soccer develop more healthily.
All in all, the incident of Xie Hui's "drunkenness" has left us a profound lesson. As public figures, we should always pay attention to our own words and deeds, so as to set a good example for the community.
