"Improve the national team, and then improve the league?" Yuan Weimin was obviously shocked by Ou Chuliang's new theory.

He smacked his lips, feeling that his brain couldn't turn for a while.

"Xiao Ou, aren't you saying the opposite? Isn't it true that we can first improve the level of our league, and then improve the level of youth training, so that we can slowly improve the level of the national team? Why are you doing it upside down? If we can't improve the level of the league and improve the level of the national team, why do we still have this method? ”

It's no wonder that Yuan Weimin was so surprised, it is because the football performance has not been able to go up, that the Football Association learned from Western countries to introduce professional football under the capital system into China, in order to promote the level of the national team through the fierce struggle to improve the league.

Now hearing Ou Chuliang's completely opposite remarks, Yuan Weimin naturally couldn't accept it.

"Uncle Yuan, you are right, improving the level of the league can improve the level of the national brand. But in fact, the two are complementary and mutually reinforcing. A high level of the league will enhance the strength of the national team, and the strength of the national team will also feed back the domestic league. ”

Ou Chuliang nodded, and first affirmed Yuan Weimin's words.

"The current situation is that the level of our league is low, and the level of the national brand is also low. In the case of both low, it is necessary to pick one to develop first. Just like Grandpa Deng said, allow some people to get rich first, and the first rich will lead the latter to get rich, and then achieve common prosperity. ”

Yuan Weimin heard the clouds and mountains at first, but after hearing this familiar sentence, he suddenly had the feeling of seeing the clouds and the sun.

"You go on."

"Since you can get rich first, then you have to decide which of these two gets rich first." Ou Chuliang analyzed little by little, "What the Football Association is doing now is to improve the level of our league as soon as possible, and then drive the level of the national team to improve through a more high-end and more intense league." ”

"But it requires not only the leadership of the Football Association, but also the joint efforts of every first-division or even second-division club operator."

"But running a club is not easy to say, with funds, players, coaches, training grounds, sponsorships, and seedlings. It takes a lot of money, it also takes a lot of time. ”

"And the slightest carelessness in the operation will break the capital chain and form bankruptcy. I think the Football Association has also learned a lot about such clubs in the past two years. ”

Yuan Weimin nodded after hearing this, it is true that as Ou Chuliang said, many clubs have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain in the past two years, but those who have been eliminated and filed for bankruptcy also abound.

In this way, when fair competition cannot achieve the normal maintenance of the club, the stealing of chickens and dogs must also come into being! What's more, our China is still a society of personal relationships, and the doors inside are linked one by one, so they must have a headache too! ”

Yuan Weimin nodded at first when he listened, until Ou Chuliang said this, and suddenly frowned, not angry and arrogant.

"Xiao Ou, what are you talking nonsense? Have you heard any bad news, let me tell you, you can eat indiscriminately, and you can't talk nonsense about some things..."

"Uncle Yuan, I'm not the owner of those clubs, I'm just a small player, what do you say I want?"

Yuan Weimin was stunned for a moment, and then reacted. As Ou Chuliang, there is indeed no reason to have anything to do with those shady things.

"Uncle Yuan, what I said is a common phenomenon, and it is also something that came into being after the professionalization of football. It doesn't matter if the tree grows insects, the important thing is whether the tree planter has completely controlled the insect infestation at the early stage. If you take the medicine as soon as possible and do point-to-point, face-to-face treatment, then even if there are some worms, what's the matter? ”

"If the tree planter doesn't think so, he just thinks about killing insects with the self-healing ability of the small tree. By the time the bugs have formed a community with the little trees, it will be too late. There is hardly a better way than to cut down trees and replant them. ”

"Xiao Ou, you're right." Hearing Ou Chuliang say this, Yuan Weimin's eyes were faint, scattering a sparkling light. The momentum of the superior is revealed, and it seems that he is frightened and ruthless. "There are some bugs, it's time to get rid of them as soon as possible."

Seeing that Yuan Weimin had made up his mind, Ou Chuliang did not continue on this topic, and the conversation changed and returned to the previous topic again.

"Therefore, the development of the club is a laborious thing, and the development of the league is a big project to cultivate people for a hundred years. After the league level comes up, it is true that the national brand level can be improved, but how long will it take? ”

"Ten years? Twenty years? Twenty years from now, will the domestic league definitely develop? And even if the domestic league develops, will it take another ten years for the seedlings to grow into talents? Can the Football Association afford to wait, can the fans afford to wait? ”

"So, one of the two has to be able to improve quickly in a short period of time and meet the fans' satisfaction standards. In contrast, it is certainly much easier to improve the overall strength of the national team than to improve the standard of the league. Ou Chuliang finally came to a conclusion.

Hearing the word "fan", Yuan Weimin remembered the experience of these heavenly names, and his whole body couldn't help but tremble and shiver.

After the myth of the undefeated workers' stadium was shattered, the national football team played two friendly matches with Uruguay, the Netherlands and other teams, both of which ended in failure.

The successive defeats have made fans aware of the gap between international powerhouses, and at the same time, they are also deeply self-examining. And the first "change" they have to make is to let Qi Misheng get out of class.

For a while, shouting the words "Qi was born out of class" became a cheap way to enhance self-superiority. Even many people who are not fans like to shout two sentences to show their differences.

In the past two years, Qi Zhuosheng has worked hard even if he has no credit, but just because he lost a friendly match, he called him out of class, and the fans were really ruthless.

But the level of the national football team is there, Qi was born by mistake, can he improve after changing the coach?

If Qi Miaosheng's dismissal is not enough to "anger the people", then what about the next step? Is it necessary to change the leadership of the Football Association? After the leadership of the Football Association is changed, will the plan they made this session be implemented by the next leadership team?

As an old man in the organization, Yuan Weimin couldn't know more about this set.

Although Ou Chuliang didn't talk about this, he could easily see the future not far away.

The level of the national brand team has not been improved in a short period of time, and under the pressure of public opinion, the leaders will definitely replace all of them. Along with it, the so-called 10 or 20-year plans they have set will all be overturned.

Football is originally a decades-long plan, and in the case of the continuous change of the leadership of the Football Association, it is not difficult to foresee that the requirements and plans of each session will change day by day, and when the time comes, the level of football will really not be raised!

Thinking of this, Yuan Weimin couldn't help but feel a chill in his back.

He is 57 this year, and he will be laid off and retired in two or three years. Organizationally, Wang Junsheng, Sun Yourong and Vice Chairman Xu were selected for him, three capable players around the age of 40, with the purpose of enabling them to work in this post for ten years and devote the most ardent passion and the strongest essence to the infinite football career.

The work ability of the three is recognized by Yuan Weimin, but if even the three of them are not recognized by fans and the people, then let alone the later people.

Whatever you say, let the three of them work in this position for ten years!

But if the level of the national brand can't be raised in a short period of time, can the fans agree? Can public opinion be compromised?

Yuan Weimin didn't expect that no one noticed a seemingly simple truth. He only saw the age of Wang Junsheng and the others, but he didn't expect them to be walking on thin ice, and there was a risk of being replaced at any time.

At this point, Yuan Weimin subconsciously asked.

"Since it is difficult to improve the level of the league, what can you do to improve the level of the national brand in a short period of time?"

Hearing Yuan Weimin's question, Ou Chuliang grinned.

"Isn't that easy? Isn't it over borrowing chickens to lay eggs? ”
