Chapter 483: Bid for the World Cup

In 2022, there is another big event for Dragon Country Football, which is worth paying attention to!

As early as before the opening of the 2018 World Cup in Russia, FIFA, which was keen on the huge untapped football market potential of the Dragon Country, took the initiative to contact the Dragon Country Football Association to lobby the Dragon Country Football Association to bid for the World Cup.

After careful consideration, comprehensive opinions from all sides, especially with reference to the achievements of the Dragon Kingdom in recent years, the Dragon Country Football Association believes that the time is ripe for the Dragon Kingdom to host the World Cup.

As a result, with the cooperation of many parties, Longguo decided to bid for the 2030 World Cup.

Originally, according to the rules of continental rotation, the right to host the 2030 World Cup should belong to European countries, and Dragon Country, as an Asian country, bid for the 2034 World Cup, which is more reasonable and more certain.

The reason why we have to bid for the 2030 World Cup is that an important consideration of the Dragon Football Association is still on Shen Feng.

Shen Feng is the first person in the football world of Dragon Country today, there is no doubt about it!

Although, with the investment and cooperation of many parties, the youth training system of Longguo football has begun to show results, and more and more talented and potential young players have been excavated, consolidating the foundation of Longguo football.

However, among the newly emerging young players, it has not yet been discovered that there is a potential like Shen Feng to become a top player and a superstar.

This situation is not difficult to understand.

A superstar like Shen Feng is not a cabbage, he is a once-in-a-century genius!

Shen Feng's actual situation is even rarer than those once-in-a-century geniuses - he is a man favored by the system!

Only countries with deep roots like Brazil, Argentina, France, and England can continue to have talented leading players emerging from generation to generation.

The heritage of Dragon Country football cannot be compared with these old football powers for the time being.

However, Dragon Country Football has a huge demographic dividend, as long as it develops according to the current established route, it will catch up in a relatively short period of time like an economic take-off.

Dragon Country Football just needs to have more patience to wait.

However, the World Cup really can't wait.

Maybe, in ten or twenty years, Longguo Football will dig out a second Shen Feng, even if it can't be done, in another thirty years, it will be possible.

However, the World Cup cannot wait for 30 years and wait for the next Shen Feng.

After a series of reforms, although a large number of technical officials have been recruited, a number of former international players have been filled into the leadership, which is one of the reasons why Dragon Football has been able to walk on the right path of development in recent years.

However, within the Dragon Football Association, the influence of politics still cannot be completely eliminated.

There are many differences in the aspects and issues that need to be considered in a big event like hosting the World Cup, in Dragon Country, and in other countries.

One of the most important aspects is the grades.

In the World Cup held at their own doorstep, the Dragon Country Team must achieve reasonable results, otherwise even if the World Cup is held successfully, the Dragon Football Association and the Dragon Country Team will be to blame.

In terms of the Dragon Country Football Association, Shen Feng is the biggest guarantee for the Dragon Country team's record!

Therefore, the Dragon Football Association will insist on holding the World Cup within Shen Feng's career!

In 2030, Shen Feng, who was born in 1997, is thirty-three years old and can already be called a veteran, but with modern sports technology, it can basically be guaranteed that he can still have a better competitive state at that time.

Just like Cristiano Ronaldo at the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

If Long Guo bids for the 2034 World Cup, Shen Feng will be thirty-seven years old by then, and it is difficult to guarantee his competitive state.

Shen Feng's competitive state cannot be guaranteed, and the record of the Dragon Country team cannot be guaranteed.

Therefore, after making the decision to bid for the World Cup, what Longguo wants to bid for is the 2030 World Cup, not the 2034 World Cup, which has a more guaranteed success rate.

However, if it is really impossible to bid for the 2030 World Cup and the 2034 World Cup, as a supplementary option, Dragon Country is not unacceptable.

After the decision of the Dragon Football Association to bid for the 2030 World Cup, it has received strong support from people from all walks of life.

Dragon Country's overseas investment institutions all over the world have turned into a volunteer lobbying group for Dragon Country's bid to host the World Cup, and are running for Dragon Country's bid for the World Cup on a global scale.

England, France, and Australia, which compete with the dragon country for the right to host the 2030 World Cup, cannot compete with the dragon country in terms of manpower, material and financial resources, and the bid process is absolutely below the beginning.

Seeing the bad opportunity, Australia is very self-aware and voluntarily withdraws from the competition for the right to host the 2030 World Cup.

England and France refused to give up easily, using their only resources to fight for themselves, while smearing the Dragon Kingdom through various channels.

However, at the FIFA Congress held in June 2022, the Dragon Kingdom still defeated England and France by an absolute margin to win the right to host the 2030 World Cup.

When the president of FIFA said "CHINA", the whole country rejoiced.

The World Cup is finally coming to the Dragon Country!

Just like in 2001, when the Dragon Kingdom won the right to host the Olympic Games, this is of great significance to the rising Dragon Kingdom.

In the bidding stage, Longguo has already identified 16 stadiums in 16 cities to host the 2030 World Cup.

There are several more cities and stadiums in the Dragon Kingdom to host the World Cup than Russia and Qatar, because in the 2030 World Cup, the number of participating teams has expanded to 48, 16 more than Russia and Qatar, and the number of games will increase a lot.

Of the sixteen host cities, the first to be determined is the capital capital, and the largest city, Shanghai, as one of the four super first-tier cities, Yangcheng was also successfully selected.

As the pearl of the Dragon Kingdom and a special administrative region, Xiangjiang has special significance to the Dragon Kingdom and has also won a place.

The other 12 cities, which are being fought for all over the country, are finally determined as Shangdu in Henan Province, Shen City in Liao Province, Shishi City in Hebei Province, Jinmen City and Yuqing City in Hebei Province, Yuhang City in Zhejiang Province, Jinling City in Jiangsu Province, Jincheng City in Xichuan Province, Jiangcheng City in Anhui Province, Chang'an City in Shaanxi Province, Ning City in Western Guangdong Province, and Guishi City in Guizhou Province.

Sixteen stadiums in these sixteen cities will host 114 matches for the 2030 World Cup.

In order to host the 2030 World Cup, various places have begun to renovate and build new stadiums, such as Beijing, because it has a super large stadium that can accommodate 80,000 fans such as the National Stadium, so it only needs to make some renovations to the stadium; For example, commercial cities, because the scale of the existing stadium cannot meet the requirements of the World Cup, there is a new super-large stadium that can accommodate at least 80,000 spectators.
