Section 110 African experience

U8 update fastest reading network Zhao Yaning thought about it for a while, and without too much hesitation, he took the bet.

"Joey, you're at a loss," Squeiraci shook his head, "the Africa Cup of Nations is biennial, the Asian Cup is quadrennial, and he has a much better chance of winning than you." ”

Drogba disagreed, "But we have a lot more competition than them. There are giants like Egypt in Africa, and teams like Cameroon are strong teams, but what about Asia? There aren't a few strong teams in Asia, right? How could they not win the championship? Or is it that all the Asian games are played like South Korea's? ”

Drogba's words made several people laugh: After the World Cup, the South Korean team has been treated as a joke by European players.

Although at first it was only the Spaniards and Italians who hated Koreans, but later on, this trend spread. Although everyone didn't dare to say anything on the surface, they all joked about Koreans in private.

In fact, South Korea is also wronged enough: the South Korean team in 2002 is indeed the strongest Korean team in history. The Korean team is united, hardworking, hardworking, although the technique is not good, but it is physically sufficient, willing to run, it can be said that it is a very strong team.

But that kind of strength is not the opponent of Italy and Spain after all, they relied on the black whistle to defeat these two teams, leaving people with the impression of only the black whistle, the glorious side, probably only their own people will remember.

"It's not that exaggerated, but it's true that Asian football is not very clean." Zhao Yaning thought about what he had read from the magazine, and had heard all kinds of things about West Asian football and South Korea, and suddenly realized that the idiots of the Chinese Football Association even bribed the upper echelons, bought off the referees, and intrigued and engaged in politics so badly.

But at this time, he can't complain about this, "China's luck has not been very good, and there is no one above who can speak, and it is rarely taken care of." And now, there are new problems. ”

Zhao Yaning thought for a while, briefly said a few words about the lack of success of each team, and then began to smile bitterly, "Are you counting on making money...... Just seeing Zizou and Figo's high transfer fees are surprising, I forgot how Roma, Lazio, and Fiorentina went bankrupt......"

Squeeraci was not very touched by these words: France is an exporter of players, the number of players sold to foreign countries every year is the largest in the world, and even Brazil is stunned, and it is difficult for France to imagine a lack of talent.

Drogba, on the other hand, is willing to find a way.

"You can invest in a football school yourself. There are a lot of people in Africa who do that. And you don't have to pay all the money, you can contact zhèng fǔ to provide technical support with your fame and connections, and let zhèng fǔ provide the land. At the same time, there is a fundraiser in Europe and a call for people to donate to children in the Third World – you don't have to spend too much money and you can get a good name, which is a good deal. I always thought that when I had money and fame in the future, I would do the same. Drogba reminded him.

"I've thought about ......it," Zhao Yaning explained his problem, "The main thing is the problem of social security, if a player is injured, it is not easy to treat the disease, and if the player is forced to retire, it is not easy to resettle." At the same time, the trained players, if the level is not enough, there is nowhere to go. ”

"Won't you run your own hospital?" Drogba immediately gave his opinion, "Wouldn't it be solved if we set up a specialized hospital?" Hospitals are also a good investment, they don't lose money at any time, and the money they earn is used to cover the cost of treatment for the players, wouldn't it be great to kill two birds with one stone? ”

Zhao Yaning hadn't thought about this idea before, but thinking about it at this time, it was really good.

But the question is, does China allow private hospitals? Zhao Yaning can't remember, it seems that in his memory, all the hospitals are run by the state.

"And those who can't go on to their careers are even better. Isn't your national football just getting professional? The football industry also needs talents, right? Wouldn't it be better to let them do those things? Scouts, coaches, journalists, copywriters, and even lawn mowers, don't they all need people? ”

"As for those who kick out, it's even better. Won't you buy a club yourself and end it? Drogba said, "The players you train yourself use for yourself, and when you use them well, you sell them, and you don't pursue good results or a lot of income, which is a team that cultivates talents." As long as you don't want to make a lot of money, you don't have to think too much about the things you put in, and having the team take care of its own profits and losses is enough to make him run on his own, isn't that a good thing? ”

These things were all things that Zhao Yaning never thought of, he never thought that cultivating players could be related to making money.

But it does make sense when you think about it. If you buy a club and don't ask for results, it doesn't matter what kind of play you play, it's just to develop talent, then you really won't lose much money. The loss of money in the football industry is mainly due to the value and salary of big-name stars, and everything else is average. If you really don't pursue results, and you don't need the team to hand over any money to you, it can really make the team run well, and you can also cultivate youth training.

Arsene Wenger's ability to cultivate talents, produce results on the one hand, and make money on the other hand, no one in China has. But don't get grades, don't make money, just cultivate talents, it's much easier. France is full of this kind of team, going up and down between Ligue 1 and French B, and if you have money, you don't invest in reinforcements, that is, relying on youth training, this kind of team can generally even make a profit. If I didn't ask for a profit, I would have done better, right?

Zhao Yaning heard the coaches mention how much the youth training costs: among the teams in Ligue 1, the most vigorous youth training is Lyon, they source talents from all over France, and at the same time update the equipment every year, but even so, their annual investment is only about 10 million euros. This money includes the cost of bringing in young players, the salaries of coaches and many other losses.

The level of youth training in Lyon, after the establishment of the Tora Voro base in the new century, is already the leading youth academy in Ligue 1. Even if it is put into the world, it can compete with the La Liga duo Real Madrid and Barcelona for the top three in the world. I don't ask for that kind of youth training, just to set up an ordinary youth academy, and at the same time, the price of goods in China is lower, it shouldn't cost much, right?

"And, if you're not at ease, you can also get foreign help from the French side." Squeiraci also spoke, "Since the level of your Chinese football is not very good, then the French second level should be able to play football with you, right?" Spend more money, find one or two good foreign aids, and leave the results to foreign aids, the club is blindly cultivating youth training, isn't it all taken care of? ”

Zhao Yaning really never thought about this, but now that he thinks about it, he also thinks that it is also a way.

"How could you think about that?" Zhao Yaning looked at Drogba with some puzzlement.

"We're in a similar situation, I've thought about investing in African football, and it's over." Drogba shrugged his shoulders and said the question lightly, "It's just that the difference may be that our country really doesn't have the money to invest in football, while your country doesn't value football and no one wants to invest." ”

No, they take football very seriously. Zhao Yaning sneered. It's just that they value different things. They want football to be their cash cow, preferably their promotion charm at the same time, and they don't care about the development of football, the results of football.

The General Administration of Sports doesn't care, because they are in charge of table tennis, diving, and sports cāo, which produce results, and it doesn't matter if a football association doesn't give it. The Football Association doesn't care, they are the department with the most money in the General Administration, although they don't produce results, have no status, and have no chance of promotion, but as long as they have money, they don't have to worry about the General Administration being too harsh. The club owners don't care, they are a group of businessmen who only think about making money. As for the players, no one else cares, so why should the players care?

"Does this work in your Africa? Won't the Football Association interfere? Zhao Yaning still asked his own question with some doubts.

"In some countries in Africa, as long as you are willing to pay the Football Association, let the Football Association listen to you and change the president." Drogba replied.

This made Zhao Yaning really can't imagine, what kind of country and what kind of football association does it have to be?

It would be nice if the Chinese Football Association did the same...... Be ruthless, give them some money, and then decide how you want to play and play. But the problem is that Chinese football doesn't look like that. The leaders of the Football Association are still counting on the Football Association as a springboard for their promotion, and they want political achievements, not money.

Bureaucracy is not wrong to describe the Football Association at all.

"Football is a weak country, and if you want to develop, you must have to suffer a lot." Drogba saw Zhao Yaning's expression and slowly spoke, "A country like ours can't be compared with Europeans, they have money, treat football as entertainment, and are willing to invest money." We can't compare it with South America, where football is an industry, a profitable business. We can't. Asian and African countries do not have good enough social security, and second, they do not have a good enough sports foundation, and it is not so easy to develop. ”

Zhao Yaning nodded, Drogba's words did have his reason.

But at this time, another question lingered in his heart - such a method, Drogba could think of it, Zhang Yuan couldn't think of it? If you want to talk about it, Zhang Yuan's long-trained mind is much stronger than Drogba's. He's been in France for a long time, so can't he see anything about African football? If he saw it, and knew that he wanted to do something in Chinese football, why didn't he tell himself? Zhang Yuan has always been very opposed to Zhao Yaning's idea of investing in Chinese football, could it be that he knew that there was a way, but he didn't tell himself?

Such a thought made Zhao Yaning a little dazed, if even Zhang Yuan could not be trusted, who else could be trusted by the people around him? ω· u(8) Update the fastest reading network
