Seeing that Wang Ai couldn't hold it in anymore, Xu Qinglian stood up and exchanged glances with Wang Ai while pouring tea. Wang Ai slightly realized that although these reporters are trustworthy, the profession of reporters means that they cannot be completely trusted, at least not really like them.
Just like family members, they say whatever they say. They have many friends, and even if they are not published in the newspapers, it will be troublesome if they talk too much and something unpleasant is spread.
"I've talked too much and gone too far. Let's continue talking about the national system." Wang Ai calmed down and put back his words with a smile.
Liu Jianhong and others secretly sighed, what a great opportunity this is! But they were too embarrassed to open their mouths to instigate. Wang Ai had already realized that his little girlfriend, oh, the little female friend also specially reminded me that he was really shameless for the news.
Wang Ai laid the trap, and from now on, well, there will be no future.
"Well, the national system is also a phenomenon unique to our country, and it also has problems that are different from those in the West. Let's talk about this, it is good to see the big from the small." Zhang Erwen was unwilling to be reconciled, and added this sentence.
"Who said that the national system is unique to our country?" Unexpectedly, Wang Ai immediately refuted it.
"Huh?" Everyone was stunned, and a young reporter from the China Youth Daily said: "Dr. Wang, this is what they said, oh, the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe are gone. Vietnam, Cuba, North Korea, etc. are too small.
If it is not representative, we will just talk about developed sports countries, such as the United States."
Liu Jianhong added; "Xiao Wang, you haven't been to the United States often, but I go there often because of my work. At the same time, my professional nature also determines that I pay more attention to this aspect. The United States is highly market-oriented, commercialized, sports events, athletes It has become a special commodity, deeply integrated with corporate sponsorship and advertising. It is true that my country does not rely entirely on government support. Now the industry, or in your academic circles, believes that our country has a nationwide system, and the United States does not. The United States It is stronger than our sports industry, so ultimately it is the right path to follow the example of the United States, which is completely market-oriented."
Speaking of this, Lao Liu saw Wang Ai's unswerving expression and hurriedly added: "I know what you mean and your consistent views, and I also admit that what you just said makes sense. You can't just imitate them in everything. If you learn some things,
It’s not suitable to take it back. But sports are relatively simple, such as football and basketball. After the professionalization, the government can indeed invest less, and this will still be effective.”
Wang Ai nodded and took a breath: "This matter is very complicated. Although I have not gone to the United States, I have stayed in Europe for five years, and I will always inadvertently investigate all aspects. But I still don't agree with your views.
Or what you said about the opinions of the industry and academia, I will tell you this bit by bit."
Several reporters were attentive, and Ma Dong also pricked up his ears. He knew that given Wang Ai's current status in the domestic sports world and academia, his next speech is likely to have a huge impact on the overall development of China's sports industry.
Although his influence will definitely be accompanied by controversy, in the past debates initiated by him, he won all the debates in the end. This gave the sports world, academia and even all sectors of society a high degree of confidence in his judgment. Especially the Football Association.
, the influence must not be small. If he hears and understands first, he will be in an advantageous position at work in the future.
Wang Ai thought for a moment and said to Lao Liu and the Xinhua News Agency reporter: "You may be familiar with the United States because of your work relationship, so will the President of the United States meet with their Olympic champion?"
The two nodded together, and Liu added: "Jones, the female trapeze artist, won five gold medals at the Sydney Olympics. She became a national hero when she returned home and was received by the president."
Wang Ai nodded: "So, does this prove that the Olympic champions who represent the United States have a positive impact on the international image of the United States? Have a positive impact on American society? In other words, athletes who achieve good results on behalf of the United States have a positive impact on the United States.
Does the country benefit? The country also encourages and approves?"
The two of them thought about it for a moment and nodded at the same time.
Wang Ai continued: "In 1936, Germany hosted the Berlin Olympics, and Hitler personally attended the opening ceremony. Does this mean that the Olympic champion also played an important role in Germany at that time? The country also encouraged and praised it?"
The two nodded again.
"Okay, let's talk about the Soviet Union and the United States during the Cold War. Since the Soviet Union collapsed, we can extrapolate from the results and easily conclude that everything in the Soviet Union was wrong and everything in the United States was right. And the United States is now indeed
Prosperous, developed, and powerful enough. If we look at history separately, we should indeed use the United States as a template for everything. But everyone here is considered an intellectual, and when we look at the problem, we cannot be disrespectful to our knowledge. We have studied history since we were young.
What? We need to look at problems, observe phenomena, and draw conclusions in a coherent manner. Ultimately, we have to understand why the United States is so powerful, what are the reasons for the prosperity of American sports, and then draw a more important conclusion: from a historical perspective
Let’s take a look at what stage the United States is at and what stage the American sports industry is at.”
Seeing everyone thinking silently, Wang Ai said slowly: "Let me give you an inappropriate example to talk about institutional issues. The national system is also a systemic issue, right? The United States has been a country for more than 200 years. At the same time, Canada,
Mexico, Central America, and South American countries are basically at this time of independence. These countries and regions all follow the Western system, and even the races are similar, so why is the United States the only country that is the most powerful? Brazil in South America also has a vast territory, why
So weak? With the same system, the United States is first, Europe is second, and South America is not ranked. Furthermore, the same phenomenon of poverty and wealth, why is it not a system problem when compared with South America and the United States? Compared with China and the United States, it is
It must be a systemic problem?”
Li Lin's eyes were focused and he wanted to take out a small book. Xu Qinglian held Constance's hand and also listened quietly.
"In the final analysis, ideology is at work. When China opened its doors, American ideological tools came in and brought back this biased ideological conclusion through various methods, including the brainwashing of our overseas students. These people and these ideas are actually, to put it bluntly,
It cannot withstand refutation at all, and it is completely unable to reconcile itself." At this point, Wang Ai knocked on the table and said angrily: "For example, if you have a stomachache, the correct way is to first check the medical history, find out the cause, and then start from there.
Treating the source? Should you take painkillers when you have a stomachache? What was the result of the Soviet Union taking painkillers called shock therapy? But many people are fascinated by the prosperous side of the United States, scared out of their wits, and forget what their teachers said when they were in school.
teaching, forgetting to calm down and think seriously. Some of these people are really confused, have no level, and are academic hooligans, while some have taken American money to assist anti-China forces. From a national perspective, the current situation
This debate about the national system is not isolated, but is subordinate to the larger debate about China's political system. In other words, the public opinion struggle between the attack of US imperialism and the defense of the Chinese people is a branch battlefield of the ideological struggle system.
The ultimate goal of the enemy is not to establish a national system, but to use this to step by step towards the goal of carrying out a color revolution in China. The United States has relied on more than two hundred years of smooth development and has continued to plunder wealth from all over the world.
We only became independent in 1949 and are still in the stage of getting started, so it is not surprising that there are wavering thoughts. But the truth is the truth after all. I am a scholar and I am reasonable. You are intellectuals, and you must also be reasonable.
