Jing Jian half-heartedly accompanied Jin Kang in politeness, and he felt in his heart that he seemed to have heard of this person somewhere. Suddenly, the door of memory was opened, and Jing Jian suddenly realized that in the future, this Jin Kang would be promoted to deputy director of the Football Management Center, and when the Football Association nest case broke out collectively, this person was also sent to prison to pick up soap.

With an impression, Jing Jian began to look carefully, and he was curious to find that this Jinkang man seemed to be very capable, and he was relatively young among the department-level cadres at this time. With prejudices in his heart, Jing Jian was even more reluctant to deal with these people, so he asked directly: "Director Jin, do you have anything to do with me?"

Jin Kang seemed to be a little embarrassed, and Bai Yang on the side took the initiative to help: "Xiao Jing, they are all their own people, don't be angry if you ask directly." I've heard that you're the owner of the new Champions League, aren't you?"

Jing Jian smiled and shook his head: "It's not the boss, I don't even have much right to speak." There is only a part of the shares. Now that it has become an "underground party", there is no need to deliberately conceal some things. Of course, there's no need to go around and hype it up.

"Oh, and you're still the owner of last year's English league champions, Portsmouth?"

"Hehe, when I bought it, it was for fun, and Portsmouth was still a second-division club at that time. I didn't expect the team to be angry, but it gave me a surprise. ”

"Then I have a question. Bai Yang glanced at Jin Kang, and there seemed to be a tacit understanding between the two, "Do you have so much money from China? Why don't you support domestic football?"

Jing Jian hurriedly pretended to be stupid: "I'm from the CPPCC." ”

"Oh. Jin Kang and Bai Yang thought they understood, and it turned out to be those national capitalists of the United Front.

Jing Jian then replied: "Isn't domestic football all in charge of Director Jin's Football Association?

"That's right. Jin Kang thought that Jing Jian didn't know the current situation of domestic football, so he hurriedly gave Jing Jian a detailed introduction.

It starts with the end of the movement. At that time, the spring breeze of reform and opening up was blowing all over China, but only football was still stubbornly "sticking to the last position".

At the beginning, in 1978, the first division league was resumed, one session a year, the spring began to compete, and the end of the year, generally 16 teams participated in the competition and adopted a double round-robin (phased) centralized competition system, according to the weaving points, goal difference, and the number of goals scored in order of seats, the last 4 teams were reduced to the second division team, and the top 4 in the second division were promoted to the first division ranks. This format is relatively normal. Although it is a competition system and does not implement a home-and-away system, considering the economic situation of various places, it can be understood that at least the league is guaranteed.

However, since the 5th National Games was held in 1983, the first division league was divided into two zones, south and north, and the home-and-away double round-robin system was adopted, and there was no promotion or relegation. The first FA Cup was held in 1984, and the first division was relegated and relegated from the first division, with the top 16 teams in the FA Cup retaining their first division places, and the 17th to 24th teams competing in the second division the following year. After 1982, in order to improve the level of football, and taking into account the actual situation that the national team could not return to the team to participate in the league during the perennial training camp, the competition system of the first division league was continuously reformed, such as corner kicks, free kicks, and goal breaks, and one goal was counted as two goals; no draws were allowed, and the winner was decided by penalty kicks in 90 minutes; national players were given subsidized points; the scoring system of 2 points for wins, 1 point for each draw, and 0 points for losses was abolished, and the system of 3 points for wins, 1 point for each draw, and 0 points for losses was changed......

In fact, due to his investment in football, Jing Jian is somewhat concerned about the situation of domestic football. It's hard to believe that the format is changing more and more chaotically. Let's just talk about it now! The domestic first-class teams have been reduced to six? Yes, you are absolutely not mistaken, it is six! Three cycles are played every year, anyway, it saves money, and it takes more than a month to play 15 games "crackling" quickly.

Leagues in other countries are ten months a season with one or two months off. And the Chinese league is a season of one or two months, with a break of up to ten months? Tell me, don't complain that Gu Guangming was hacked by New Zealand back then, and in this state, it is lucky to really qualify.

Therefore, after listening to the introduction, Jing Jian immediately declined: "I'm sorry, I really don't know anything." When I return to China, I will pay attention and contact you directly if I am really interested. ”

Jing Jian thought what he said was clear enough. If you don't want anything else, if you want me to sponsor you, you have to come up with a plan, right? But there's nothing, just send someone to talk in generalities. What's even funnier is that it's understandable to fancy the money in your pocket, but you should always say how to spend it, right? Who wants their money to be wasted?

The two people in front of them also saw Jing Jian's attitude. Jin Kang wanted to continue to persuade, but Jing Jian ran out of patience: "Director Jin, I'm sorry, the ceremony is about to begin." If there is anything else, we can talk about it later. ”

......

In fact, here, Jing Jian wore colored glasses. In the Football Association at this time, Director Jin belonged to the reform faction, and he really wanted to do a good job in Chinese football. Of course, many of these reformers in the future will be dazzled by the Super League fans, but that is still in the distant future, at least now he still wants to do something practical.

However, there is a lot of debate within the Football Association about reform. It is not that there is a need for reform, and basically no one has any objection to this, but the key is how to change it? Therefore, this time Jin Kang was invited to UEFA, and he did come with an attitude of learning.

However, the resistance is also quite large, which can be seen from the level of Jinkang. There was no chairman, deputy director, but just a chief. So when he arrived in Switzerland, he suddenly learned about Jing Jian's situation through the reporter Bai Yang, so Jin Kang wanted to contact him first.

Of course, there is no plan for such contact. In fact, within the Football Association, that reform plan is also in the air. Therefore, when Jing Jian left, Jin Kang seemed very helpless. He smiled bitterly and complained: "What about this Xiao Jing." I was willing to spend my money abroad, but I didn't want to invest in our Chinese football? I thought I would be able to bring a surprise after I went back this time, but fortunately I haven't reported it yet, and this matter is going to be yellow when I see it. ”

Poplar was also disappointed in Jing Jian's "patriotism". However, there were some things he couldn't say too thoroughly, so he could only comfort him in a low voice: "I said gold, don't pay too much attention to it." Maybe those were all foreigners' bragging, right? Maybe they did have some money and bought an English club, but that Xiao Jing was like that. Even Huo Lao in Hong Kong refuses to fill the bottomless pit of football, he is always far from Huo Lao, right?"
