Waiting for the next step of the Jiangxia Flame Club, Thomas Schmitt opened his mouth to attract everyone's attention:

"Actually, we don't have to pay this money, at least we can pay most of it, right?"

Schmitt didn't wait for them to answer, and continued:

"This is the sincerity of our cooperation. Cooperation is the current model, and in the future, the junior tournament will continue to be held, and it will be changed to a league when conditions allow. It's not a handout, it's an industry, a business model. We need good players, we have a European presence and we're happy to pay for that if you find and develop talent. ”

Thomas Schmitt's Mandarin can basically make people understand what he means, and the content is even more shocking to them, and they can't help but think about it.

In the past, football youth training was mainly a professional team model, even if the league was professionalized, in addition to the echelon of the club, some football schools were also this single club type. However, it is the professional teams of local sports committees and football associations that are really all over the place, and the earliest contact with youth and toddler football training.

The funds and personnel of these professional teams are all stored under the banner of the Sports Commission and the Football Association, and the purpose is also around the system of the National Games, which is still the previous professional team system.

Even if these professional teams are aiming for the National Games, they are naturally judged by the results of the events, which has caused the characteristics of short-sightedness and strong utilitarianism. Changing age to fight big and small, simple and direct with the body, these all come from here.

But despite the many drawbacks, this system is also the only one that is truly at the grassroots level, and football must also need this kind of large base screening to find the right players.

This kind of large-base and large-scale screening requires a system that cannot be established by that person or that club in a short period of time, even if Lin Wenlei has almost cheating financial security. He doesn't have enough academy coaches, let alone enough local connections and connections, to build such a system in a short period of time.

What's more, the owners of the existing system, the Sports Commission and the Football Association are also in charge of the industry. If you want to build a new system, in addition to the cost of time and scale, you also need to consider the question of whether the competent authorities are happy or not.

Therefore, at the suggestion of Yu Tian and Schmidt, Jiangxia Flame Club adopted a business model and only paid to select players who met their own standards, which did not affect the system of these professional teams.

As for the authorities, Jiangxia Flame also chose a cooperative rather than confrontational approach. Although they have gradually transformed football into the freaks they need for private and departmental gain. The body is tall, rough and direct, the results are fast, and the investment is not large; Training is based on age, not on technique and prospects; These factors they needed slowly became the genes of Chinese football, and finally created a sick and wilted Chinese football.

Jiangxia Flame has also actively become a part of this competition system, but it is just a part of training and training according to the laws of football. If the results are good, they will naturally meet the performance needs of the competent authorities. It is natural to accept the way that there are achievements and economic benefits.

It has been proven that this approach has been recognized by all parties, and the head coaches of each team are concerned about the selection criteria and the arrangement of the tournament. And Luo Changhai just came over and asked Lin Wenlei if the selected team members could do it.

"Director, what I'm saying now is false, but we won't be unsure of the real money thrown in, and there is not a National Games echelon to be formed as a touchstone for testing."

Luo Changhai was in a good mood, and smiled and corrected his language problem:

"You are the touchstone of the National Games, and the main body must be clear."

"That's for sure, but the touchstone also needs to have some gold content to be effective."

The meeting was a success, and then an award ceremony and theatrical performance were held in the afternoon, which perfectly ended the first Chubei Youth Championship.

After seeing off the leaders, Lin Wenlei drove to the Jinyu Lake training base next door to the resort.

Construction of the site has just begun, and at the front of it is a professional football stadium with a capacity of 12,000 people, and everyone thinks that the flame field sounds a little unlucky, so they simply named it the Youth Stadium.

This type of pitch is much more advanced than today's improvised pitches. The first is the turf, which is entirely in charge of SI.S. The state-of-the-art composite lawn is the same as that of the Bernabeu, and the watering, drainage, and underfloor heating systems are all in place, all built to the highest standards.

Along with the lawn, there is also a lawn maintenance center, and a set of lighting maintenance equipment is also the most advanced in Europe, all of which ensure the quality of these lawns.

The design of the stadium does not pursue unconventional, very ordinary rectangular design, but the broadcast booth, lighting, retractable ceiling, especially the stadium air conditioning system are definitely the top stadium configuration.

Further inside is the club office building, because there are more and more departments and staff, this time a five-story office building was built, where administration, logistics, business promotion and so on are located.

Behind it is a youth center surrounded by a pitch, a three-storey building with an atrium garden in the middle. The first floor is the locker room, physiotherapy room, team doctor's room, conference room, etc., and the second and third floors are the offices of youth coaches, where all professional coaches (goalkeepers, physical trainers) of various echelons are here. Outside the training grounds, there are a number of large buildings, including an indoor court, swimming pool and footbonaut. Footbonaut is further divided into three types, one is the regular type, one is the youth type, and one is the enhanced version.

The Footbonaut Plus version improves the way of receiving the ball on the original basis, and will use lights to project a running line on the turf when it starts, and it is necessary to train players to complete the run according to the light guidance and then catch the ball and shoot into the required window. Then move on to the next run and receive the pass. This solves the habit of handling the ball on the spot during previous training, and also combines running and running training. In Benteler's words, it's the ultimate version of footbonaut.

The Jinyuhu training base has 6 groups of footbonaut enhanced version, 2 groups of regular type, and 2 groups of youth type. The enhanced version has a high degree of secrecy, and only the core team members will be approved for use.

There are dormitories, restaurants and other services by the lake. Inside is the Sports Medicine Center and Turner Laboratory, which includes a set of sports data acquisition equipment, a sports information collection center and a mainframe computer room.

There is also a football park on the periphery, which is a training ground for interest classes, and also receives some football enthusiasts, and also provides football knowledge teaching and simple training guidance.

On a high ground by the lake, there are 4 courts, which are also the highest standards of the training base, 2 artificial turf and 2 natural turf. Next to it is a separate complex with locker rooms, team doctors' rooms, and offices.

This separate training ground is for the first team of the training base, that is, the training ground of the U15 youth sports team that will be formed soon.

After seeing it once, Lin Wenlei likes this place very much, the lake view and the woods make the environment and air here great, but it will take a few months to build.
