Section 393: Go to Shenyang to see tigers (middle)
Wang Ai has made enough changes to Chinese football, but the biggest changes are one is last year's Athens Olympics, and the other is now, the quarterfinals where China has nothing to do!
Of course, this joy can only be tasted by Wang Ai alone.
Wang Ai has been busy in La Liga these two months. Due to the arrival of the quarterfinals, China will host three home games, so where will they be held? Cities across the country are competing! Beijing, Wuhan, Chongqing, Jinan, and Shenyang are all actively Let’s strive for it. The first four are the sub-fields and main fields when qualifying for this year’s Asian Cup or Olympic Games. The football market is very hot, and Shenyang is even more special. On October 7, 2001, the Chinese team entered the World Cup for the first time at Wulihe Stadium. Shenyang Wuli River has been written into history, and it can be said to be a blessed place for China’s Football World Cup journey!
But when representatives from each city told the Football Association about the advantages of their city and criticized the disadvantages of other cities, the representatives from Shenyang City were ridiculed. For no other reason, although the other four cities also had various problems, none of them It's as severe as Shenyang: Although the wave of layoffs has subsided, the economic environment is still immersed in the cold winter!
When the Shenyang representative argued hard, he was suddenly ridiculed: "Don't you think the Wuli River area is too crowded? The last time you qualified for the World Cup, you complained about the traffic jam around the entire stadium. Now it's solved?"
"...We can temporarily restrict traffic flow!"
"Haha, you think we don't know? Haven't you all decided to tear it down and rebuild it? The maintenance of the stadium must have been lax, right? New one? It's too late? Two months?"
Wang Ai has long heard about the Shenyang Municipal Government's final decision to demolish the Wulihe Stadium. But he hasn't made up his mind yet, but it will have to be demolished sooner or later. The news was already clear last summer. At that time, Wang Ai was because of Chen Tao and Dai Qinhua. I was very unhappy with Shenyang Jinde, and how was it resolved when Liaoning Football Club came forward? There was a secret deal: once Wulihe Stadium is demolished in the future and Jinde has no main stadium, Dashuai Stadium can provide support.
But Wang Ai heard that Shenyang had demolished the Wuli River and planned to build a new stadium on the south bank of the Hun River. The name was planned to be called "Shenyang Olympic Sports Center"!
Wulihe Stadium is a famous stadium throughout China and even the world. At least many people in East Asia know it. However, the Shenyang Municipal Government only focused on the stadium facilities, but failed to notice that "Wulihe" itself is a huge stadium. Intangible assets. Of course it is possible and should be demolished the old one, but if the new one is built, shouldn't it be named after "New Wulihe Stadium"? Could it be that the old Wulihe River got its name because of the place name, so it cannot be used in a new place? ?But you didn’t call the new place Hunnan Stadium or Shilihe Stadium!
In the final analysis, this is brainless! Without the awareness of commodity economy and culture, Wuli River, a landmark and historical place in Shenyang, wasted in vain! Olympic Sports Center? There are only 80 such names in the country, if not 100. How can it have any communication value? How can I identify it?
Fortunately, the Shenyang Municipal Government has not yet made a final decision, and the new stadium has not been decided yet. Wang Ai is determined to have a hand in the naming in the future!
The Northeast's economy is not good. The most important thing is that its thinking is not good and it is not adapted to the commodity economy and culture. The Northeast has been a land of farming and war since ancient times, and there have been endless wars. People's way of solving problems is extremely rough and direct. What about the ingenuity of my wife?
Why are Northeasterners considered arrogant in the minds of many people in many parts of the country? Because they can’t play tricks on others, and doing business can be a deception!
At the meeting where the Football Association decided to host the city, a Shenyang representative remained calm after being ridiculed by his opponent: "Wulihe is indeed inappropriate, but we didn't say we wanted to host it in Wulihe?"
"Oh?" Everyone said in surprise: "You have other stadiums... uh... uh..."
Everyone, including Nan Yong, thought of the Tiger on the south bank of the Hun River, which was named one of the "Top Ten Outstanding Buildings" by the Ministry of Construction last year... Oh, Dashuai Stadium!
Yes, the handsome stadium!
After Wang Ai persisted in deciding on the tiger shape, the Liaoning Provincial Design Institute burst out with all its enthusiasm for work. After several discussions within the Ministry of Construction, the 38,000-seat Liaoning Football Stadium was approved! From styling to naming, from ownership to The opening game was all accompanied by controversy over the new stadium.
After a year and a half, the controversy has gradually dissipated, and the unique cultural temperament of this stadium has begun to become more and more attractive. All fans who come with the team will be amazed by this imaginative stadium. It’s a square, round, and regular golf course. Which golf course in the country is like this?
This is not the weird-looking big pants that are still on the design drawings, nor is it a copycat of well-known foreign buildings. It is a special building that is purely based on Northeastern culture and Liaozu history, and has far-reaching implications in all aspects. .Not to mention in Liaoning, it is the only one in China and in the world!
The significance of this stadium is now not limited to games and sports, but also extends to the fields of culture and city image. In other words, every visiting team that comes here to play games is impressed. And where is this stadium? Shenyang!
Shenyang is in deep economic trouble!
Over the past year and a half, Dashuai Stadium has shown great power in improving Shenyang’s tourism economy. Almost every tourist who comes to Shenyang will make Dashuai Stadium a stop in their travels. Many foreign tourists come here specifically for Dashuai Stadium. Come once and take your children to see this "big tiger"!
In the nascent online community, there are more discussion posts about this big tiger than all the national stadiums combined, which is slightly better than the Bird's Nest, which is currently under intense construction. But that is the National Stadium after all! Every day at the Dashuai Stadium At the main entrance, back entrance, side entrance and outside, there are countless tourists taking photos with their backs to the stadium. Many current Chinese movies and TV dramas have also been filmed here.
The prototype of a cultural resort is emerging. Even national leaders who come to Shenyang for research will come here specifically to have a look and use this as a basis to praise Shenyang City's far-sighted urban construction actions.
According to Liaoning Football Statistics, in terms of commercial income, Liaoning Football’s ticket revenue is not as high as the income from stadium rental, image licensing and other aspects. In the impoverished Liaoshen football market, Liaoning Football is still able to survive and nourish, and the stadium’s The huge commercial value is directly related to it.
Among the people in Liaoshen and Shenyang who have lost confidence due to the economic downturn, the Dashuai Stadium is also a rare new thing in Liaoshen and Shenyang that has national popularity in recent years.
Fierce, wild, solemn, solemn, unique and unforgettable, this is the deep impression this stadium has left on everyone, and it is also a well-known cultural landmark in Shenyang and even the country!
Therefore, when the representatives of Shenyang City unexpectedly proposed to let the "Dashuai Stadium" host this event, they almost instantly repelled the attacks from several other cities. There was no way, there was only one in the country, and there was only one in the world. This It is not only a business card of Shenyang, but also a business card of China!
