Proposing translations and headlines

Since the request is ambiguous, I’ll suggest providing an English translation, a punchier headline, and alternative phrasings in Chinese. I don't need to use any special tools for this. For the translation, I could say something like: "Did directing from the bench while you were out help your leadership?" and J-Wei's response could be, "They don't listen to me at all." I'll aim for three English variants and a polished Chinese version. However, I should also clarify with a quick question: "Do you want translation or headline/copy?"Preparing translations and refinements

I’m putting together a few options for translations and headlines. The English literal translation could be: "Did coaching from the bench during your absence help your leadership?" J-Wei's response is, "They just wouldn't listen." An alternate phrasing could be, "Did being a sideline general help your leadership?" with the same response. For a punchy headline, I could say, "Asked if bench-coaching boosted his leadership, J-Wei: 'They wouldn't listen.'"

In Chinese, it translates to: "记者：缺阵时在场下指挥，对你的领导力有提升吗？杰威：他们压根不听。”
