89. Go back to the roots

After hearing Heiko Fogel talk about these things on the phone, Zhang Sheng couldn't help frowning, if it is really as Haike Fogel relayed, this is not a good thing, nor is it a small thing, China's domestic football circle is so big, and there are only so many really valuable youth invitational tournaments, especially in the games below U15, which is even less pitiful.

If it is a high-level competition for the age group, there are a large number of high-level invitational tournaments such as the "Weifang Cup" and the "Tianshan Cup", and there are also high-level competitions held in several economically developed cities after 2015, such as the Beijing International Youth Football Invitational Tournament and the Guangzhou International Youth Invitational Tournament, and just before Zhang Sheng's rebirth, he also knew that even Chinese mainland cities such as Jiangcheng had held such as the "Chufeng Cup" and other invitational tournaments, these games are also widely posted heroes, and some foreign youth teams have been invited to play.

With such a large area and large-scale competition, all echelons of the Longteng team will have a good chance to choose.

And specific to the U8, U9, U12 and other echelons, the game is very few, if the U9 echelon of the Longteng team once caused a bad impact in the domestic football circle, it will bring a lot of trouble to future games and exchanges.

The Longteng Club has developed very rapidly in recent years, the results are constantly improving, the league level that the team participates in is also constantly advancing, every promotion, every championship, and even the sale of eliminated players after each promotion have had fierce competition with those clubs and football schools outside, these competitions do not know how many people's financial paths, how many people's good things have been broken, it can be said that there are countless stakeholder groups behind the scenes are gritting their teeth and eager to try the Longteng team.

And with the development of the Dragon Club, the Dragon Group is also constantly expanding and expanding in various regions, and the benefits of this are calculated in hundreds of millions of dollars, and these people are more hostile to the Dragon Club.

Even if there is no problem with the Dragon Teng team, these people will think of various ways to discredit the Dragon Teng team, and once the Dragon Teng Club makes any mistakes, then these people will spare no effort to attack the Dragon Teng team in all aspects.

Another important reason is the environment in which the Longteng team is located, as well as the economy of Hubei Province and the unique football ecosystem of Hubei Province.

Hubei Province is a province with universal characteristics in China, that is, like most provinces, most of the political, economic, and cultural resources of Hubei Province are piled up in Jiangcheng, the provincial capital.

Taking the proportion of GDP in 2014 as an example, the proportion of provincial capitals in China's 27 provinces (excluding municipalities directly under the central government) can be seen from statistics, 15 provinces accounted for more than 1/4 of the provincial capitals, and 10 provincial capitals accounted for more than 30%. In addition to Yinchuan in Ningxia and Xining in Qinghai accounted for 51.6%, Changchun in Jilin accounted for 41.2%, and Harbin accounted for 38.34%, ranking fifth is Jiangcheng, which accounted for 35.95% in Hubei Province, higher than Chengdu's proportion of 35.4%.

Corresponding to the economy is the development of the cultural and sports aspects. The cultural and sports industry belongs to the typical tertiary industry, the tertiary industry will not appear out of thin air, its emergence and development is definitely based on the demands of local residents, the more developed the city, the more prosperous the cultural and sports industry, because the local residents have relatively high income, have spare money to participate in and consume this industry.

The football industry is also like this, the football industry related personnel gathered in big cities is a common phenomenon all over the world, even the players are absolutely based on all walks of life in the big cities, and the consumption power of the fan group is also very different between big cities and small cities. Therefore, most of the football resources in Hubei Province are also piled up in Jiangcheng, because it is easy to do things with money.

And the unique organizational structure of the domestic football association has also caused this further imbalance. Although the actual operation of the Chinese Football Association is mainly based on the management mode of government departments, but in the final analysis, the Football Association is not a government functional department, because in the constitution of the Football Association, it is clearly stipulated at the beginning: the Chinese Football Association is the only national non-profit social group legal person voluntarily formed by units and individuals engaged in football in the People's Republic of China. It is a member of the All-China Sports Federation, and accepts the business guidance, supervision and management of the General Administration of Sports of the People's Republic of China and the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

That is to say, the football associations at all levels in China from top to bottom are social group legal persons, and there is not much subordinate relationship.

Although the Hubei Provincial Football Association sounds more advanced than the Jiangcheng Football Association in terms of name, the Jiangcheng Football Association has never dumped the Hubei Provincial Football Association, because the Jiangcheng Football Association has enough channels to obtain funds, has a large football fan base, and even has a good enough player selection environment.

From the outstanding players in Hubei Province over the years, it is not difficult to see that most of the outstanding players in Hubei Province are basically from Jiangcheng, and there are very few players from non-provincial capital cities in Hubei Province, and most of the domestic fans are familiar with Hubei Provincial players including Zeng Cheng, Rong Hao, Hao Junmin, Zhang Xizhe, Mei Fang, etc.

At the same time, because Hubei Province only had Jiangcheng Zhuoer, the only seedling of professional football, whether it was the Hubei Provincial Football Association or the Jiangcheng Football Association, they all relied on this team, but as long as you look at Zall's team name Jiangcheng Zall instead of Zall Province, you can know the tendency of Zall Club, so this has formed an embarrassing situation, and it is often the Hubei Provincial Football Association that has asked for Jiangcheng Football Association, not the other way around.

But since the formation of the Dragon Club, the situation has quickly changed drastically.

When the Longteng team was still in the amateur league and the second league, the situation was relatively stable, after all, the size of the Longteng team was still very small at that time, whether it was the amateur league or the second league, whether it was the influence on the players or the fans, it was very small, so the Hubei Provincial Football Association did not pay much attention to this nascent team.

And when the Longteng team arrived in the middle league, the gradual improvement of the results and the excellent performance in the FA Cup shook the entire Jiangcheng football circle, but also attracted the attention of the Hubei Provincial Football Association, at the same time, the Longteng team because of the Jiangcheng football resources by the Jiangcheng Football Association and Zall Club monopoly, but also from the non-provincial capital cities of Hubei Province, other provinces and even foreign countries to find talents, the Hubei Provincial Football Association also has the feeling of sympathy with the Longteng Club.

In this case, when the Longteng Club released goodwill to the Hubei Provincial Football Association, the Provincial Football Association immediately leaned over, and then whether it was the transfer of ownership of football players in the following cities of Hubei Province, or the Longteng Club began to establish a large number of football schools in various cities in Hubei Province last year, the Hubei Provincial Football Association has given enough help, they help matchmaking, help Longteng Club and the Football Associations of various cities, the Sports Bureau to coordinate various relationships, and help Longteng Club introduce influential figures in the local football circle, which can be said to be very positive。

When the Longteng team proposed to the Hubei Provincial Football Association that the echelons at all levels of the Longteng team lack a lot of game experience, they helped communicate with the provincial football associations and helped the various echelons of the Longteng Club to find and sign up for various invitational tournaments.

Therefore, Zhang Sheng attaches great importance to this matter, after all, he can't help himself with the Hubei Provincial Football Association, but he slaps others in the face.

Of course, Zhang Sheng is not such a reckless person, now what he hears is only the words of the other party, it is impossible for him to rashly make a decision without careful investigation, and he must investigate the ins and outs of this matter from many aspects.

After making a decision, Zhang Sheng is going to go to the football school first to see the video of the game, because according to the regulations of the Longteng Club, as long as it is a regular game, no matter what age the game is, the Longteng Club will leave a video of the game, if there is an official broadcast of the game, the Longteng team will find the game organizer committee to ask for the game video, if there is no media broadcast, the Longteng Club will send its own club personnel to record the game video.

After arriving at the football school, Zhang Sheng carefully watched the video of the game and found that the opponent did not go overboard, and the referee's punishment was fair, and he didn't think of the situation that the foreign team was targeted after arriving in Shanghai.

In fact, it should be like this when you think about it, after all, it was Longteng Club and Suzhou First Team that reached the final in the end. Suzhou No. 1 team is not a local team in Shanghai, and to be honest, although Suzhou is very close to Shanghai, in the era of bullet trains and high-speed rail, it can reach each other's territory in half an hour, even faster than the suburbs of Shanghai to the center of Shanghai. But the characteristics of Shanghainese people who despise outsiders have always made them contemptuously call Suzhou people "Xiangwuning" (countrymen), and now the first team of Suzhou has reached the finals, and 7 participating Shanghai's own teams have been eliminated, as the host of Shanghainese people do not want to be called "Xiangwuning" Suzhou people team easily wins.

So the referee did a very fair job in this game, and there was no intention of protecting his Suzhou neighbors at all, the U9 echelon of the Longteng Club lost in their own too light enemy, and the impatient mentality of the second half, but they had a lot of completely irregular actions, or the referee was merciful, otherwise they would lose even worse.

After watching the video of the game, Zhang Sheng still didn't make a rash decision, he still made a call to Shanghai, found Sun Yu, and asked Sun Yu to help inquire about the game.

When receiving Zhang Sheng's call, Sun Yu seemed very happy, after he left the team, his boss found him as soon as he had something, and it seems that the boss still trusts him very much.

On the phone, Sun Yu hurriedly said: "Boss, don't worry, I'll call them now to ask about the actual situation of this matter, and I will definitely not let my little brothers be bullied." ”

After saying this, Sun Yu apologized, immediately began to hang up the phone, and began to find teammates in the Shenhua team, asking them to help inquire about this matter, as this season after coming to Shanghai Shenhua, Sun Yu, who firmly occupies the position of the main back, is still very authoritative in the team, and his teammates quickly went to inquire, and quickly replied.

Shanghai's football circle is so big, such vicious fights and brawls quickly spread throughout the circle, and in the face of the inquiries of the first-team players of the Shenhua Club, the parties also gave a serious description, and the matter was indeed the same as what they relayed to the Hubei Provincial Football Association.

Sun Yu also honestly explained the beginning and end of the development of things to Zhang Sheng in detail, and said: "Boss, this time it is really not a problem here in Shanghai, but the coaches of the U9 echelon of the junior disciples have gone too far." ”

Zhang Sheng sighed and said, "Thank you, it seems that this time it is too outrageous for our side, and I will personally apologize to the Shanghai side." ”

Sun Yu hurriedly said: "Don't do this, boss, I'll come to talk to them, I'll apologize for you, and I want you to apologize in person, it's too embarrassing for you, the boss is in trouble, and it is appropriate for a little brother like us to apologize on his behalf." ”

Zhang Sheng shook his head and said: "No need, I didn't manage the people below well, and I should have apologized, but thank you, you play football well and perform well is the greatest support for me." ”

Sun Yu knew that his boss was a very thoughtful person, and he rarely made changes when he made a decision, so he could only say: "Okay, boss, but what do you need me to say or do here, just say it, I will do it." ”

After ending the call with Sun Yu, Zhang Sheng finally confirmed that it was his side that made the mistake, and it seemed that he had to take action, Zhang Sheng quickly called the club's staff to call the two U9 echelon coaches.

When these two coaches came to Zhang Sheng, they kept grinning, obviously they had completely forgotten the events of the previous day, maybe in their opinion, such a conflict would not be a matter for them to be more stupid.

Sure enough, when Zhang Sheng asked about the "Haha Cup" invitational tournament, they were still indignant, and one of them said: "Mr. Zhang, a banmayang (Wuhan dialect, swearing) is purely bullying the other party, mom.b. If they didn't mess around, how could we lose, with the strength of the old team, the country is one of the best." ”

Zhang Sheng was also completely speechless about this person, listening to his mouth full of swear words, coupled with a ruffian expression, this person's quality can be seen, no wonder there are fights and brawls. (To be continued.) )
