In the small meeting room, everyone sat in silence.
"We withdrew from the match to defend Coach Gu against the injustice. Why did they treat Coach Gu unjustly?" Shuang Pang, who was the youngest among the athletes, broke the silence.
"Shuang Pang, don't tell tales! This is the flat management, which is not against Coach Gu deliberately," said an old coach who was sitting next to the athletes.
"Is this the flat management? I've searched this term on the internet. Flat management is implemented to reduce the administrative levels. But after this flat management in our team, none of the high-level management staff is reduced; none of the executive coaches are reduced; the coaches of the men's team and the women's team are still there. Only Coach Gu is 'reduced.' Isn't it against Coach Gu deliberately?" Shuang Pang said indignantly.
