Chapter 5 Chinese Campus Football Report 2: “The Cradle of the National Football Team” Dongchuan Middle School
"We have been conducting interviews for several days. What do you think of what Director Hu said?"
In the car, Lin Xueyi asked the photographers working with him.
After everyone looked at each other, one of the youngest photographers said:
"I think...Director Hu is a little too idealistic."
Lin Xueyi motioned for him to continue.
He continued:
"In fact, the concepts of Director Hu are not new. In our country, there have been debates about the concept of youth training for a long time. Director Hu is not the only one in China who insists on doing this, but many people are under pressure.
, I just couldn’t persist in the end. He said that grades should not be looked at in primary school, but how could it not be done? Even every city’s districts and counties have corresponding leagues. Since there is a league, there must be rankings and grades.
requirements... Then why should we ask those schools not to pursue results? Unless all primary school competitions are cancelled, then fans have to say that there are very few youth football competitions in China. How can we grow without playing games...
"As long as you play games, you will definitely have performance requirements. After all, performance is the only criterion for assessing a coach's level - you say you are good, who knows? Leading a team to play games is a mess, how can you convince the public? So I think Director Hu also
It’s because he is Hu Lai’s father that the school tolerates him so much. If he had been an ordinary coach, he would have been out of class long ago..."
Another photographer retorted: "But I think Director Hu is right. As a primary school student, he blindly pursues a winning style of play. The final result is that our players are crooked from the beginning. Long passes and lobs are not good."
Even if you can win easily in the younger age groups, it won’t work if you get older. And it won’t be good for the growth of personal golf intelligence and skills..."
"You're right." The first photographer said, "I didn't say that what Director Hu insisted on was wrong. I just said that the general environment is like this, and everyone is pursuing results. If you can't get results, you won't be counted.
Whatever you insist on is right, you may be forced to give up. Because Director Hu is Hu Lai's father, he can still withstand the pressure. What about the others? Now that the general environment cannot be changed for the time being, Director Hu and the others still have to come up with something.
Only when you get good results can you convince everyone to take this path, otherwise...it will still be difficult."
Everyone knew that what he said made sense. After they interviewed Hu Lixin that day, they were also moved by Hu Lixin's ideals. However, after two days of calming down, they still felt a little discouraged when they thought about the current situation.
The current situation is like this, what can Hu Lixin change?
Even in the Nancheng Primary School under his control, aren't there some parents who don't understand?
They stayed in the school team not because they really accepted Hu Lixin's theory, but because they just wanted to ride on Hu Lai's popularity.
Hu Lixin used his son's fame to create an exquisite box to package the pearl of his children's football training concept.
But everyone only wanted to get the box and put the pearl aside.
Everyone originally thought that with the national team reaching the World Cup finals for two consecutive years, the future of Chinese football would be getting better and better. But now they feel that the future does not seem as bright as they thought...
"This is indeed a very real problem." Lin Xueyi said, "Without results, you cannot convince others to believe in your theory. But if you stick to this theory, it is difficult to win at this stage... It seems to have become a vicious circle. So this is
The reason why we want to come to the second interview stop...is here."
As he said "We've arrived," the commercial vehicle slowed down slowly on the roadside until it finally stopped.
A gate covered with banners appeared in front of them.
"Warm congratulations to our school alumni Hu Lai, Xia Xiaoyu, and Luo Kai for helping the Chinese national team reach the World Cup for two consecutive years!"
"Chinese football goes from here to the world!"
"Congratulations to our school alumnus Hu Lai on his fourth victory in the Champions League final and making history!"
"Warm congratulations to our school alumnus Li Qingqing for winning the Champions League for two consecutive years!"
"National-level football demonstration high school Dongchuan Middle School welcomes you!"

Lin Xueyi stood in the stands of the football field of Dongchuan Middle School.
The stadium in front of him was different from what he saw in the video taken by Deputy Editor Sun ten years ago.
There was originally a wall opposite the main stand. Now that wall is gone and it has been converted into a small stand with a total of five rows of seats.
There is a small door under the stands that leads to the outside of the school - when you go out of the small door, you will see the road outside.
There is a gate here to allow people outside the school to pass.
As Dongchuan Middle School becomes more and more famous, more and more people come from all over the world to observe the school's training and competitions.
Some people even posted on the Internet about their "pilgrimage" experience to Dongchuan Middle School. The response was very enthusiastic, and many fans from other places expressed envy and jealousy.
In the past, these enthusiastic fans could only gather at the campus gate, affecting the normal teaching order and increasing safety risks.
So later, Dongchuan Middle School simply took advantage of the opportunity of the newly built stands and opened a door on the stadium side to separate the teaching area from the stadium area.
When there are games to be played on the school stadium on weekends, the door connecting the stadium to the teaching area is locked, and outsiders are not allowed to enter the teaching area through this door.
For example, right now, the door leading to the teaching area below the main stand is locked.
Everyone has to enter and exit through that small door.
However, such restrictions cannot limit the enthusiasm of the fans who come to watch the game.
Both the main stand and the stand opposite were almost full of people.
The atmosphere was very lively.
Lin Xueyi and the others have been filming and interviewing in this school for two days. During the daily school team training, there are actually many people watching, but they are all students of Dongchuan Middle School.
They saw how passionate the students at this school were about football.
Now they have seen the influence of the Dongchuan Middle School football team spread beyond the campus.
Friendly matches between two high schools can attract so many people to fill the stadium stands. Lin Xueyi thought of campus football that started earlier than China, and that Japan is a better neighbor than China.
He feels that China's campus football culture finally has some shadow.
Two photographers were filming the game on the sidelines, and one photographer was filming Li Ziqiang in front of the coaching bench of Dongchuan Middle School. After all, he was the protagonist of the trip to Dongchuan Middle School.
There was also a photographer filming and conducting random interviews in the stands.
Lin Xueyi, on the other hand, mingled with ordinary fans, eavesdropped on their discussions, and understood the thoughts of ordinary people from outside the camera.
The game on the field is coming to an end, and the focus of discussion in the stands has shifted from the game itself to other aspects.
"These players from Dongchuan Middle School are really good. Maybe they can regain the national championship next year?"
"Then I don't expect that there will be only one champion, and so many schools across the country are participating... As long as they can perform at their normal level, I will be satisfied..."
"It's great, it's great... No wonder it's a school that produces so many international players. Look at their energy, it's really different!"
"Coach Li teaches well!"
"That's not the case! Don't look at who she is, Li Qingqing's father! He taught Li Qingqing single-handedly. How can you do it if you don't have good skills?"
"Yeah, hey... You think this is the blessing accumulated by our ancestors for many generations... A small Dongchuan Middle School actually produced four international players!"
Unlike the vague dissatisfaction with Hu Lixin among the students and parents of Nancheng Primary School, it seems that Li Ziqiang's work has been recognized and supported by the vast majority of people.
But Lin Xueyi had done his homework before coming, otherwise he would really have thought how high Li Ziqiang’s support rate was.
In fact, in the past few years, Dongchuan Middle School was suppressed by Jincheng's Jiaxiang High School... It missed the national competition for three consecutive years, and those three years were when Jiaxiang High School was at its peak. Because Jiaxiang High School at that time
There is a talented central defender named "Qin Qi".
Later, Dongchuan Middle School regained the qualification to represent Andong Province in the national competition because Qin Qi left Jiaxiang High School.
So maybe the people who are praising coach Li Ziqiang’s ability in the stands have scolded Li Ziqiang’s team in the same place a few years ago for not being able to beat Jincheng’s Jiaxiang High School...
From elementary school football to high school football, it is difficult to say "winning is not important" anymore.
Because it is only one step from high school football to professional football, winning is indeed important.

The Dongchuan Middle School football team finally defeated the visiting Dongchuan No. 5 Middle School football team at their home court.
After the game, the players from both sides lined up to shake hands, then walked together to the opponent's coach's bench and bowed to the opponent's head coach - these are requirements written into the campus football charter and must be done after the game.
There were cheers and applause from the audience in the stands.
The atmosphere was as lively as a China League Two match.
You must know that although China Second Division is the lowest level in China's professional football system, it is also a professional game.
When the fans in the stands left the stadium one after another through the small door, and the opponent players also took the school bus to leave, the players from Dongchuan Middle School had already entered the locker room to shower and change clothes - the locker room of Dongchuan Middle School is based on the professional team
Decorated and designed according to the standard, there are also many facilities.
Heating, air conditioning, hot water, multimedia screens, tactical boards, etc... These conditions are much better than those of Hu Lai and the others.
After the players had all taken a shower, Lin Xueyi walked into the locker room with the coaching staff of Dongchuan Middle School.
The shirtless players were having fun.
They looked very excited after just winning.
However, this excitement gradually disappeared after seeing the head coach.
Because their head coach is looking grim...
"Just do what you have to do, I'll just say a few words."
Seeing that everyone had stopped what they were doing, Li Ziqiang waved his hand.
So it was time for the players to change their clothes, but the relaxed atmosphere before had obviously disappeared.
Lin Xueyi found a corner and began to observe and look forward to what would happen next.
Photographers had set up their machines in the locker room in advance - somewhere unknown to the players - so they could record everyone's truest reactions.
Why is the head coach unhappy despite winning the game?
What happens in the locker room of this high school team that has produced many international players?

ps, today I will start the second update, but it won’t last long. Let me give you a warning in advance. I will take my child out to play on July 20th. He has made up for half a month of classes, and I have to take him to relax. Last year, when we went to western Sichuan
I was very dissatisfied with not taking him with me, so this year I decided to take him to Jiuzhaigou Valley and play with Lian Baoye.
Estimated to take a week.
So when the time comes, I will definitely have to update it alone to continue my life...
I'm so sorry!
