“…… The Chinese men's football U22 training squad was announced yesterday, and nearly a third of the new blood joined to show the strategy of head coach Shi Wuyun...... Twenty-five of the 35-man training roster are from Chinese Super League clubs, and another 10 are from Chinese Super League teams......"

Chen Xingyi looked at the news on his phone in a daze.

This made his father Chen Hantang, who came to pick him up and take him to the hotel to rest, a little uneasy: "What's the matter, son?" Did it feel bad to go to the team on the first day? ”

He thought that his son's absent-minded appearance was due to the problems of integrating into the team.

Chen Xingyi shook his head: "No, Dad, everyone is very warm to me." Besides, Hulai's kid can fit into the team, why can't I fit in? ”

"Then you are ......"

"I just learned that Hu Lai and Wang Guangwei went to the U22 national team."

Chen Hantang, who was driving the car, was stunned for a moment.

Chen Xingyi leaned on the co-pilot's seat and sighed: "I didn't pay attention to this news at all, because I knew that I must have nothing to do with it." But I didn't expect Hu Lai and Wang Guangwei to be qualified to play for the country......"

His father drove in silence, not knowing how to comfort his son.

In fact, he knew very well that this was his own mistake - if he hadn't asked his son to sign with Dashun Golden Arrow, how could his son have been on the bench for a year?

Look at Hu Lai, who also entered the professional team, and at the beginning, like Chen Xingyi, he was training in the youth team.

But a year and a half later, Hulai went to the Chinese league and quickly became a first-team mainstay, scoring eleven goals in half a season. It was this performance that allowed him to finally be noticed by the head coach of the Under-22 national team.

What is the biggest gap between the two?

One is able to play in the professional league consistently, while the other can only be a spectator on the bench.

When the ball should go up the most, it didn't go up, and the gap appeared.

Chen Xingyi put his hand on his forehead: "Dad, I'm going to fight this year." ”

"Okay, let's fight together!" Chen Hantang patted the steering wheel hard.

※※※

Two days ago, Zhang Zihao submitted all his data about Shiningxing to "HERO", the general head of "Champion Godfather" in China, but there has been no response, and I don't know what his superiors think of his report.

He was a little anxious.

Because February is coming to an end, if you can't submit the data to the "Sports Ranger", the production company of "The Godfather of Champions" before then, then the data updates of Hulai and Twinkle will not appear in the official patch pack in March.

Then he can only choose to release a private update data package, but the coverage of the private data package is completely incomparable to the official package, if you want the most players to feel the real Hulai's data, you still have to rely on the official update.

He missed the update, and if he wants to update the data, he will have to wait until the release of the new generation of "Godfather of Champions" in October.

That's a long wait.

Zhang Zihao couldn't wait that long.

Just as he was about to look for HERO again, he received a reply from the other party: "...... The data collected by Twinkle Star is very detailed, which shows that you have indeed put effort into it. But isn't that Hulai's data too exaggerated? According to the data you gave, I calculated that his CA is 90, and his PA is as high as 12, what is this concept? A PA of 12 is enough to be selected for the national team, and a CA of 90 should play the main ...... in the Chinese Super League"

CA and PA are both game terms, CA stands for the player's current ability, the full value is 200, and the higher the number, the better. PA represents the player's potential, which is also full of 200, the higher the better.

When it comes to individual attributes, the full value of each attribute is 20. However, the current ability is not simply the sum of all attributes, but weighted. If the player is a striker, then the striker's attributes are weighted more in stats and account for a larger proportion of the total score of current ability. Again, 16 is a statistic, with 16 shots and 16 defending being weighted differently on a striker.

Therefore, in the game, those all-rounders who can play multiple positions are more disadvantaged. For example, if a frontcourt attacker can play as a striker, a wing-back, or a midfielder, then his attributes in shooting, dribbling, crossing, and passing may be relatively mediocre, and the numbers don't look very good. Because the attributes required for different positions are divided between his CA and PA. With the same current ability (CA) of 150, he may not be taller than a striker in shooting, and he may not be as tall as a midfielder in passing...... His strengths lie in more positional adaptability, in tactical versatility rather than in specific statistics.

Zhang Zihao hurriedly explained: "H big, this CA may be related to the weight rules of the game. Hulai has a single position and can only play as a striker, and he scores very high on the main attributes of a striker, so it causes him to have a high CA, after all, the attributes of his good values are particularly weighted in the forward position. ”

HERO: "Of course I know the rules of the game, I'm asking you to give Hulai a shot of 13, is 14 a bit too much?" There are also 18 runs off the ball...... I checked, and no one in the national team has such a high run without the ball......"

Zhang Zihao said in his heart, I still want to give Hulai's off-ball run 20...... It's not that you're afraid that you'll think it's too exaggerated.

"H is big, but Hulai really stands out in these areas. He played just 15 games last season and was not a starter in many of them, not playing the full game. He scored eleven goals, and he only had 37 shots on goal for those eleven goals. Up to 29.7% shot conversion rate, H big! I compare the top 20 scorers in the league last season, and this shot conversion rate is the first on that list. In fact, if it weren't for the injury of Qin Lin in the sprint stage of the league, which caused their midfield's ability to deliver shells to plummet, otherwise Hulai would have scored more goals. ”

Zhang Zihao explained carefully to HERO.

"I think this shot conversion rate is a very good indication of Hulai's ability to shoot, stop and run off the ball. In addition, I thought that his [Determination] stat should also be very high, so I gave him a decision ...... of 15."

As the chief investigator of "The Godfather of Champions" in China, HERO is naturally very aware that this newly recruited investigator makes sense.

But he still can't accept that a young player hidden in the middle and lower reaches of the Chinese League can have such beautiful data.

This data ...... If you go to European football, you can fight!

How did it come to a young Chinese player?

The current leader of China's under-23 players is Guan Xinyan, who scored six goals in the Chinese Super League last season, the most of any Under-23 player.

That's six goals in the Chinese Super League!

He was also last season's Super League Rookie of the Year winner.

Such a strong person, his CA (current ability) in the latest "Godfather of Champions 2023" is only eighty-five, and the PA (future potential) is only one hundred and eighteen, which is lower than Hulai!

Could it be that the strongest player under the age of 23 in China, recognized by the media and fans, is not as high as the potential of a player from a middle and lower team that was barely relegated last season in the Central League?

Isn't that a joke?

So HERO found Guan Xinyan in the game, used nuclear weapons to check his CA and PA, and then sent these two data to Zhang Zihao: "Don't tell me that Hu Lai is better than Guan Xinyan!" ”

Zhang Zihao was a little speechless.

Of course, he knows what kind of character Guan Xinyan is, and it is really difficult for him to say that Hu Lai is better than Guan Xinyan, because if he really says so, then HERO, as the chief investigator in charge of China, has every reason to doubt Zhang Zihao's business level and vision.

He can only save the country: "But H big, didn't Hu Lai just be selected for the U22 training team?" ”

HERO said that if I hadn't seen the news that he was suddenly recruited into the U22 training team, I wouldn't have come to you to find out about Hulai's situation.

"This time, Shi Wuyun recruited a number of players who had not been into the U22 before, and it was obvious that he just wanted to continue to observe and fill in the gaps. You see that Guan Xinyan hasn't entered the training team this time, isn't he qualified and has no strength to enter? Of course not, it means that he doesn't need to go through the coach's inspection and attention at all, and he will definitely participate in the U23 Asian Cup next year. HERO explained to the Shining Star investigator.

"Shi Wuyun's vision can be worse than ours? So the data you're giving Hulay now is obviously problematic...... In this way, this data will be adjusted slightly and then reported, otherwise there is a high chance that it will be rejected by the 'Sports Ranger'. After all, in their opinion, Hulai's data is no problem to play in Europe...... Of course, even if it is adjusted, it will definitely not be adjusted according to the original Hulai's data, the previous data was really too bad to reflect his performance in the Chinese League, but you also went to the other extreme......"

What else can Zhang Zihao do? The boss has spoken, and he wants to continue to fight with the boss in the end, after all, it is impossible for him to bypass the boss and directly report the data to the "Sports Ranger" company that produced "The Godfather of Champions".

In the end, after some bargaining, Hulai's shot statistics were reduced to 9, the ball stopped to 10, and the off-ball run cut to 13, after all, Guan Xinyan, who used these three data as references, was only 11, 12 and 10 respectively.

As for the decision, which is very important for the future development of the player's performance on the field, Zhang Zihao resolutely disagrees with the change. And HERO may have considered that Zhang Zihao had worked so hard to do so much work, and it was a bit chilling for him to cut it so drastically, for fear of affecting the enthusiasm of Zhang Zihao, a newcomer, so he chose to compromise on this issue. So Hulai's decision was maintained at the value of 15.

The reason why Zhang Zihao insists so much on the attribute of decision is because whether it is shooting or stopping the ball, it can be slowly increased through later training, and this is a second-level attribute, and the second-level attribute needs enough first-level attribute to play a role.

Decision is a first-level subordinate******* which will prioritize the first-level attribute before the second-level attribute when judging a player's performance in the game.

Determination is the most important level of attribute. Because players are constantly faced with situations and choices during the game, this attribute will determine the quality of the choices players make.

For example, a player with a low decision but a high pass has a good chance of passing the ball accurately to a bad place.

If Hulay's decision is low, then it is very likely that he will not shoot when he should shoot, and he will shoot blindly when he should not shoot, and the result will be more shots on goal but fewer goals. This is obviously not in line with the performance of the real Hulai.

Zhang Zihao studied Hulai's performance and determined that Hulai is a highly decisive player, and he knows when to shoot decisively and when not to be aggressive.

Without such qualities, how could he have scored eleven goals with just thirty-seven shots?

This shot conversion rate proves that every shot he chooses is highly likely to produce a goal.

If he gives in on this statistic, all the work he does will be meaningless. Because Hulai, who has a low decision, will never be able to match his reality in the game.

Finally adjusted Hu Lai's data with HERO, the general manager of China, and HERO told him that in a few days he would send all the data summarized in China to the UK-based sports rangers company, and after the company's review, if the shining star data provided by Zhang Zihao was used, then Zhang Zihao's name would appear on the latest version of the game acknowledgement list.

He also emphasized this honor to Zhang Zihao, and a large part of the motivation of many game investigators to work so hard and not get paid a penny actually comes from this.

Zhang Zihao thanked HERO very excitedly in QQ, but in fact, he was not interested in this kind of reward in his heart.

The reason why he came to be the data investigator of Shiningstar is just to let the players of "Godfather of Champions" all over the world know how strong our Hulai of Shiningstar is......

And you'll soon find out!
