There are many things to think about in this game. For example, Iraq is almost playing at home. Without any big star who can compare with Wang Ai, it is obviously an "away game" like China, but it has got a quasi-home game.
treatment.
If it weren't for Wang Ai, I'm afraid the Chinese team would have been booed. This kind of ability to turn away games into home games has always been the treatment of big-name stars, and Iraq cannot do it just because of its tragic life experience.
For another example, how did Iraq reach the finals? It is obvious that their strength is average, but it cannot be explained only by good cooperation.
Since he couldn't sleep, Wang Ai simply sat on the sofa and looked at the rows of Jakarta nightscapes, slowly thinking. This has become a special habit of Wang Ai. The sharp rise in performance on the court and achievements in football does not mean that the same is true in his thoughts.
Moving forward in a straight line, thinking again and again, thinking helped Wang Ai become more mature, and also helped him make further progress.
After returning to China this time, the leader wanted to talk. What should he talk about? It was also late at night that Wang Ai realized the significance of winning the Asian Cup to Chinese football. The self-reform of a huge system requires both internal and external promotion.
Leverage. For football, major international competition championships are an obvious external variable, but it is not absolutely positive.
It may promote greater progress, or it may become a barrier that hinders progress. The key is who this external variable is used for and who it testifies for.
With the improvement of his status, especially the promotion of the deputy minister of the youth department, who originally had more reputation than practicality, Wang Ai's observation and understanding of Chinese football has become more and more profound. As early as 2001, after he won the world youth championship, Pang Pang
The Chinese football system has been touched, but over the years there have been mostly minor repairs and modifications, and the overall pattern still has structural contradictions between the planned economy and the market economy. This contradiction is reflected not only in youth training, but also in women’s football.
It is also reflected in all aspects such as leagues and national teams.
Chinese football practitioners are also aware of the existence of these problems and are also seeking changes. However, their respective visions, knowledge structures and even subjective tendencies have divided them into four propositions and gathered into four factions. According to their propositions,
The categories are retreat school, status quo school, European and American school, and characteristic school.
The retreatists are mainly based on the reality that football players’ high income, low performance, and spiritual willpower have deteriorated, and that the entire country is still relatively poor. They believe that this round of professional reforms should be ended, return to the era of sports schools, and continue to give full play to China’s human resources.
It has strong advantages, runs football at a lower cost, and strongly opposes the luxury and waste caused by high income and high wages. Its supporters are mainly marginal figures in football and some fans.
The status quo faction refers to the faction that is relatively satisfied with everything about Chinese football. They believe that based on China's current national strength and national conditions, it is quite good for Chinese football to have developed to the current level. Although there are problems in various aspects, they only need to be repaired.
That's it. This faction even used Wang Ai's series of views that "the level of national development affects the level of football" as evidence to oppose greater reforms. The backbone of this faction is mainly Football Association cadres.
The European and American faction basically continued the reform concept formed at the Hongshankou Conference in 1992, believing that we should continue to move in the direction of learning and imitating European and American football, completely smash the sports school system, the planned economic system, and completely marketize all aspects of Chinese football.
.In terms of the reform of some specific systems, it advocates vigorously pushing forward the relevant systems in Europe, especially the five major leagues, and would rather have temporary chaos than believe that "the future is bright." The backbone of this faction is the backbone of the Football Association.
Older cadres, offices, research institutes, sports universities, and even some public figures, social figures and scholars who have nothing to do with football.
The characteristic faction has the smallest number of people and the least influence. This faction advocates that Chinese football has its own cultural soil, sports soil, and its own operating rules. In the reform, innovative methods that combine advanced European and American experience with Chinese football soil should be actively explored. In the system
In reform, it is necessary to learn, create, and constantly revise. This faction also believes that no matter what advanced experience comes to China, it will slowly become "Chinese characteristics." Therefore, instead of passively adjusting, it is necessary to be clumsy.
, it is better to have expected it in advance. The characteristic faction is not yet prominent and has no representative. It is often a tendency expressed in a few words by some football executives and leading figures like Wang Ai, and it has not yet become a phenomenon.
The above four factions are only rough classifications. In fact, there are more detailed disputes within each faction. For example, among the "retreat faction", retired coaches strongly miss the days of sports schools and advocate the end of professional "sports schools".
There are also more moderate "frugal factions" who believe that the cost of football should be reduced. The European and American factions are divided into the German faction, the British faction, the Spanish faction and other specific tendencies. The status quo faction advocates maintaining the status quo in everything and tends to be conservative.
, and there are those who advocate accelerating innovation and tend to be more gradual. As for the characteristic faction, let alone the football system with Chinese characteristics? You can just say one, two, three? What kind of characteristics? Everyone who realizes that it should be distinctive has his own
The features and propositions are all in a mess.
As for the four factions, some people moved with each other at different times, and there were also phenomena of quarreling and cooperation with each other. However, the attitudes of the retreat faction and the status quo faction were relatively close, and they were both "too lazy to move", so they jointly formed a conservative force. The European and American factions and
The characteristic factions are relatively radical, so they formed the reform faction.
The good results Wang Ai has brought to Chinese football in recent years have also been exploited by the above factions to varying degrees. For example, the retreat faction denies the prospects of professional youth training because Wang Ai did not come from the club’s youth training. Bai Guanghai and others
Rise up to praise the superiority of the traditional sports school system. The status quo faction uses Wang Ai's good results to prove the effectiveness of the current system. The European and American faction uses Wang Ai's remarks in the five major leagues to prove the success of European and American football methods. The specialty faction is also different.
The degree of reference is Wang Ai's special characteristics, such as his status as a scholar and a star, isn't that a feature?
Wang Ai's conversation with Bai Yansong on CCTV after returning from the World Cup last year pointed out a crucial issue, which is that Chinese football is currently "big in head and small in body". The national team has good results, but the foundation is very weak. This view was published
Later, it was unanimously recognized by people inside and outside the football world, and at the same time, the struggle between the above four factions suddenly became fierce.
