Chapter 74: Old Ji Fuzheng, Aiming for Thousands of Miles
"Fortunately, there are twists and turns, and there is a bright future. I just received a call. Shenhua asked me to be the head coach. Hey, isn't this a gain?"
"How much can I give you?"
"Two million!" Old Xu glared and raised four fingers: "With these two million, I can afford these four regular training grounds! With the training ground, it doesn't matter even if there are other shortcomings!
I will endure it here for ten years, and after ten years, I will take my children with me and see who among them dissatisfied!"
"But, Director Xu, you will be the head coach this year, won't these young players be delayed?"
"No way!" Xu Genbao said: "I will be the coach and the principal at the same time, so I won't miss both!"
"No delay?" Wang Ai shook his head and said: "Director Xu, since you want to take the formal route, you should know that European clubs are youth training, and the head coach of the adult team is the head coach. After all, one person's energy is limited, you
Just now I said it couldn’t be done.”
"I didn't make do!" Xu Genbao glared and said, "I was the only one who made do with Shenhua. Anyway, no matter what happened, he dismissed me from get out of class halfway and cheated me out of two million, and my training base was opened. !”
"Then you..."
"I don't care! Back then, for the long-term development of Shenhua, I worked so hard to set up a youth training program for them, but they didn't take it seriously. They were just looking for the money in front of them! They didn't have any long-term vision, so I just started it myself.
.If I didn’t lie to him, who would I lie to? Besides, my old man has been embarrassed and responsible for his whole life. If you still can’t do it, why should I be shameless? Anyway, it’s just once. After this incident, I guess no one will want me anymore. It’s just right
!I can take care of my children with peace of mind!”
An old man in his sixties is ready to roll up his sleeves and work here for another ten years! Xu Genbao, who has always been known for his shamelessness, is ready to be shameless for the football school!
"Director Xu, why are you doing this? People say, don't you just live to save face?"
"How much is face worth?" Xu Genbao pointed to his own face: "My old face is worth fifty! Now that I have a chance to sell it for two million, I wish I had a second-skinned face and could sell it again.
!”
Wang Ai stood up and poured a cup of tea for Xu Genbao, and he also poured a cup, and the two of them drank tea.
"Xiao Wang, you are also a football player. There are some words that others may not understand, but you should understand, especially since you have stayed in Germany for more than a year. You should know how big the gap is between our Chinese football and foreign football. I still remember
You told me the first time you came here. Tubingen, with a population of only 80,000, is just a town in China! There are actually ten simple courts. Our Shanghai has a population of almost 10 million, excluding school playgrounds.
, are there ten simple courts that are actually provided to the public? Don’t tell me, I really checked after you left that time, and I tell you, there are not even one!"
When Old Xu Tou said this, he slapped the table angrily: "If you have two fucking rich guys, they will build a building, and if you have any land, they will sell it to engage in real estate, leaving the common people with no place to play, and all the children will be obsessed with it."
Video games, squatting in the house all day long, one look at the whole thing is damn nearsighted! If we middle-aged and elderly people want to live for two more years and keep fit, we can only take advantage of people's shopping malls to jump around in front of other people's homes after work.
! That’s it, you’re kicking us out! If you take a look at Germany, it has a smaller area than us, a higher population density, a more developed economy than us, and it can build so many public welfare sports facilities. Can its football be inferior? Your current generation
When I was young in 84, Xiao Gao told me that there are only 30 registered players in the country! How many are there in Germany? Can a hundred thousand people stop them? At that time, *** said, "Smartness comes from the mind, brutality comes from the body". I have completely forgotten it! All day long is money, money, money.
, If you have money, you will be happy, and if you have money, you will be healthy? Then the director of the banknote printing factory will be immortal!"
"Don't be angry, be calm. That's the general environment." Wang Ai stood up and filled a cup of tea for Lao Xutou.
Old Xutou took a sip of tea and calmed down: "Speaking of the general environment, this is why I am anxious. In the past, there were sports schools all over the country. From the first year of school, children were selected layer by layer and assigned according to their merits.
In the past, we were so poor, our nutrition was so poor, and our training was so unscientific, but in this way, we still trained a large number of world champions. Now the conditions are better, but the economy is transitioning from a planned economy to a market economy. You are a college student.
You can understand. Sports schools are over, and in a market economy, various types of football schools and club youth training should take over. But this transition will not be completed immediately, it will last ten or twenty years. As for other things
It’s okay for us to wait, but can football afford to wait? Ten years is a generation! This talent has been cut off, can it be picked up in the future?”
"Xiao Wang, you are still young, and you may not be able to understand the thoughts of an old man like me. I have eaten and seen everything in my life, what else can I think of? But after playing football for a lifetime, it cannot be in our hands.
Is the inheritance broken? Starting from the generation of Li Huitang in the 1930s, it has been seventy years now. Counting on a ten-year cycle, there are seven generations of football people. There are wars, famines, and sports ahead.
Yes, football has not been discontinued. Now that life has improved, us old men have no say. Instead, the inheritance of football has been discontinued. Who can we deserve?"
Speaking of this, Xu Genbao stared at the black and white photo of Premier Zhou's first mate shaking hands with him on the wall: "When Premier Zhou met us back then, he told us to do a good job in football, enrich the people's cultural and sports life, and bring happiness to the people.
!I was so young at that time, but the Prime Minister has been gone for so long, and I am already so old, but I..."
Speaking of this, Xu Genbao suddenly became excited and repeatedly beat the armrest of the chair: "I'm so ashamed!"
Xu Genbao took off his glasses, lowered his head and wiped his tears: "We haven't done anything that the Prime Minister asked us to do. The fans have scolded us for so many years. I don't know whether to give the fans more happiness or hold back their breath. I look old now."
Are you old? If Chinese football is not promoted, it will disappear. It will be shameless to die!"
Wang Ai took a deep breath and turned to look out the window at the dilapidated Genbao Football Base in the night.
Is this great influence of a generation of great men on China? Even after decades of death, his original words are still inspiring the youthful young men back then. Now the gray-haired old man is moving forward regardless of his age!
After wiping his tears and blowing his nose for a long time, Old Xu Tou came to his senses and said, "Xiao Wang, I made you laugh."
Wang Ai chuckled: "How about I cry for you too?"
"Go! You bastard! You're even teasing your master!" Xu Genbao laughed and scolded, then shook his head and said mockingly: "Maybe he's really old. He's been obsessed with crying recently. He's really worthless!"
