Seeing that Wang Ai listened seriously, Zhang Yin added: "So in 1999, some people said that we should make up for it for Su Maozhen? Let Xiaoqu win the best award in the A-League and the Chinese Footballer
Give it to Su Maozhen, and I will make up for Xiao Qu later."
Yu Ming, who was on the side, saw that the old coach was a little breathless when he spoke, and continued: "I was still in the first team at that time, helping Zhang to guide the work. I still remember what happened at that time. Didn't we just return to Class A? Everything is different.
A bit weak, so this voice is not small. Their reason is that since the Chinese Footballer of 1996 was the third top scorer in that year, then the third top scorer in 1999 can also win the Chinese Footballer, and the first one will win.
Just be a Footballer of League A."
Seeing Zhang Yin nodding with no intention of speaking, the kind-hearted Yu Ming smiled: "It stands to reason that Chinese football was indeed very lively at that time, but in terms of professionalism, it was actually not as good as it is now. After all, after just a few years of professionalization, various players
All aspects were done in the dark. So this award was a bit chaotic, otherwise it would not have been unified two years ago. There were too many awards, and people were dazzled by them, which distracted the energy and reduced the authority of the awards. But at that time we
No one understands, and they still think that League A has a best, League A and B also have a best, and then, at the national level, the best male football players also have a best, which is quite reasonable."
Several people laughed when they heard this. Anyway, from the standpoint of that year, even foresight could not persuade this idea. People's ideas are very systematic, and if you tell them that it will reduce the authority of the award, they will ask you: "Why?
Wouldn’t it be authoritative? How could our official evaluation not be authoritative?”
"So, when multiple awards coexist, it is easy to produce favor awards." Yu Ming continued: "As the saying goes, hello, me, hello, everyone, don't be anxious, don't make trouble, just wait and see.
, it will always be your turn. At that time, our club's thinking was also inclined to this view. One was because we were used to it, and the other was that we had just returned to the A-A queue and felt a little guilty. However, Xiaoqu disagreed."
Speaking of this, Yu Ming smiled again: "Xiaoqu is much better in Tübingen now, but back in 1999, the style of the game was a bit unique. After he heard about the buzz in the club, he told me,
'Brother Yu, I know that some of the younger brothers in the team are unhappy with me playing like this, but I can't help it. I'm so old. If I don't make great achievements, what will happen in the future? I won't be able to play for a few more years.
Maybe this is the only opportunity in my life. Hao Haidong has been suspended, otherwise I might not be able to win against him no matter how many times I try to close the game this year. You said you would wait for me to get third place in a few years before helping me fight for it. I’m telling you the truth.
, I think I may not be able to get a third place in the future, my health is not good, I have been holding on this year. So, I can’t let this happen this year!'"
Zhang Yin was silent on the side. He was also an insider at that time and still remembered Qu Shengqing's words.
When Yu Ming saw Zhang Yin nodding for him to continue, he said: "At that time, Xiaoqu was about to transfer, and our club was also short of money, so after thinking about it, personally, what Xiaoqu said makes sense, who dares to do anything in the future?
Guaranteed? From the club's perspective, let Xiaoqu take this, so that he can get more money during the transfer. So we summed it up again and again, come on, don't show your style, let's fight."
Speaking of this, Yu Ming smiled: "Although we, Liaozu, have fallen down before, after all, our family has a big business and we have many connections left behind, so after talking about it from all sides, we worked hard up and down, and this matter became a success.
Li Tie in 2001 and Xiao Zhao in 2004, both of them mainly contributed to the national team. Starting from Li Tie, Chinese Footballer of the Year is no longer limited to forwards. I guess looking forward, he may also be considered for the entire team.
It’s not just about the number of goals scored. This is a change in the selection idea. Li Tie and Xiao Zhao are not controversial, and we didn’t try too hard. The main thing is that Xiaoqu’s performance has a greater reference value for you.”
Wang Ai raised his head and looked at the sky in the backyard. "Guide Sa" faintly followed an idiom on the side: "It depends on human effort."
Zhang Yin nodded: "Lao Mo is right. Although our Chinese football awards are small and small, they are essentially the same. Who wins in the end is inseparable from the efforts on the court, and also from the efforts off the court.
It is inseparable from hard work. You can only see it if you work hard for it. According to our Chinese saying, if you don’t strive for it, I thought you didn’t care about it. You have to have subjective initiative.”
Several people laughed together, and the old Mertesacker added: "After all, the two awards are more eye-catching, so the human relationship is a little smaller, but it is not nothing. The easier to operate is the World Footballer. China is so big and there are so many neighboring countries.
, especially Xiao Wang, you are the best contemporary football star in Asia. Fans all over Asia watch you play, and all Asian national teams and football associations may support you. To put it bluntly, the greater your fame, the more honors you will have.
The greater the benefit to Asian football peers, externally it can expand the World Cup quota and event hosting rights, and internally it can expand football influence and increase capital inflow. In short, there are many benefits. Even if the Chinese Football Association does not fight for it, they may vote for you.
."
Wang Ai nodded repeatedly. Last year was an example. The Chinese Football Association stood still, but Wang Ai still got a lot of votes. His ranking in the World Footballer selection was higher than that of the Ballon d'Or. It was because Asian friends consciously helped.
"As for the Ballon d'Or, it was almost there." Mertesacker said: "But there is nothing we can do about it. Our German character is very different, but there are still many factors that play a role in the award.
I remember……"
Just as he was talking, Xu Qinglian came over and said, "dinner is ready," and the few of them moved to the dinner table to continue chatting.
After chatting for a while after dinner, Wang Ai said goodbye and went out to train, and a few people ended the topic. When Wang Ai came back from running and everyone had fallen asleep, Wang Ai talked to Leonie again through the Internet. Leonie
Didn't say much new, but reported some good news.
After the news came out that Wang Ai's number of goals in a single season of the Champions League was close to the best in history, Adidas acted quickly. He achieved good results yesterday, and this afternoon the bonus of 50,000 euros was transferred to the account of CY Brokerage Company. The other party's market
The manager also contacted Leoni specifically and explained that the 50,000 yuan was just to praise Wang Ai for ranking second in the history of goals scored and first in the Premier League. If Wang Ai can score another one and tie the best in history, the bonus will be
200,000. If you can score two more and create a new historical record, the bonus will be 500,000.
Of course, for this bonus, Wang Ai will record a new commercial specifically for Adidas.
