Chapter 347 A talk about the future of Chinese football
When Chang Sheng said the words of rejection, Vidi and Wang Qiang in front of them were stunned for a moment. They didn't expect that they were so humble and received rejection!
Chang Sheng naturally knew that after he said this, the other party would be surprised, and maybe even a little angry.
However, after he finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip without continuing.
He wants to wait for the other party to take the initiative to ask the "why".
Sure enough, young Wang Qiang couldn't control his anger and immediately asked: "Why?"
Chang Sheng then smiled and said: "Because the Chinese team already has a very good head coach, I don't think I can do better than him. I don't think there is anyone better than him in the world."
The right person is here.”
Obviously, Chang Sheng is talking about Gao Hongbo.
Vidi and Wang Qiang looked at each other.
They have different opinions, otherwise they would not come to Chang Sheng.
If they think Gao Hongbo is doing a good job, what else is needed for a global coaching search?
"But Gao Hongbo's performance in leading the team..." Vidi said with a frown.
"Is there any problem?" Chang Sheng spread his hands. "I know that he lost to Japan in the Asian Cup. But isn't it normal for the Chinese team to lose to the Japanese team now? Although I also know that Japan and
The problem between us is, but football is football, and football must adhere to objective laws. This law belongs to football and cannot be circumvented by the will of the chief."
Chang Sheng began to teach two people.
These are the words that he wanted to say before he traveled through time, but he never had the chance to say them. Moreover, others spoke softly, and even if they said it, it often didn't work.
It's different now. Time travel has rapidly improved his personal status, and his influence has expanded countless times.
Now he can sit and have dinner directly with the full-time vice chairman of the Football Association and the director of the Football Management Center. Naturally, he is qualified to say these things.
He didn't know whether the Football Association really didn't know about these issues or was just pretending to be confused, but he just wanted to say it.
He must fulfill his obligations.
The obligation of an infatuated fan who loves Chinese football.
Now that he has changed the fate of the Chinese team in the Asian Cup, can he further change the fate of Gao Hongbo, or even... the fate of Chinese football?
Who said that if you want to contribute, you can only coach the Chinese team?
Once he coaches the Chinese team, his relationship with the Football Association will become a subordinate relationship, it will be difficult to say something, and his opinions may not be taken seriously.
But now, he is not the head coach of the national team, and the Football Association has to rely on itself.
His status is more transcendent, and his words carry more weight.

"Everyone has seen the progress of the Chinese team led by Gao Hongbo in the past two years. When he took over the national team, we were ranked 11th in Asia and 108th in the world! We have fallen below 100.
Ah... But what is the current ranking of the national team? The new ranking has not yet come out, but it is now fifth in Asia and 68th in the world. What does this mean? Isn't this good enough? Don't you guys
Also hope that we will immediately become the number one in Asia, beat the host country and teams like Japan in the Asian Cup, and finally win the Asian Cup? This is unrealistic."
Chang Sheng spread his hands, leaned on the chair, and looked at the two people in front of him.
"Football follows the rules of football. I still say this. We have lagged too far behind. It is unrealistic to expect to get better all at once. We have to do it step by step. The Chinese team can achieve its current results and it is already very good.
It’s amazing. In China’s complex football environment, there is no one who can do better than Gao Hongbo.”
The young and energetic Wang Qiang seemed a little unconvinced by what Chang Sheng said. He retorted: "You are a truly world-famous coach. Your achievements in leading Lazio are obvious to all. Are you not as good as him?"
Chang Sheng smiled and shook his head: "Of course. I will definitely not do better than him. If I were asked to coach the national team, within two days, the entire national team would be in chaos for me. I would completely destroy many players.
Kicked out of the national team, and said that as long as I am here, these people will never be able to join the national team. I demand absolute power, which means that everything about the national team must be decided by me, and I must first abolish the country.
Under the team leader system, I will never allow other voices in the team besides mine..."
When saying these words, Chang Sheng looked at Vidi with a smile on his face.
Vidi understood his smile and eyes.
This is asking him: "Can your Football Association accept my request?"
Vidi thought carefully in his mind that the Football Association really couldn't accept these conditions because some things were not decided by the Football Association but by the General Administration of Sports.
There are some conditions for Chang Sheng that the Football Association cannot approve. They have to be reported to the General Administration of Sports. Will the General Administration of Sports give Chang Sheng the face?
That's too hard to say...
※※※
Wang Qiang turned his head and glanced at Vidi. Although he was young, he had been in the shopping mall for so many years, so he still had the ability to read faces.
Judging from Vidi's expression, he knew that it was really impossible for the Chinese Football Association to agree to these conditions.
But based on his understanding of Chang Sheng, and these conditions are the rights that Chang Sheng wants wherever he goes, he really doesn't talk nonsense and ask for high prices.
He had never thought about this problem before, but if the Football Association really cannot meet Chang Sheng's requirements, then... the plan to ask Chang Sheng to coach the national team will not work.
Is it possible to find other famous coaches?
At this time, Chang Sheng continued: "If you want to find another coach, I can also conclude that it is absolutely impossible to do better than Gao Hongbo."
Wang Qiang was surprised by these words, as if Chang Sheng knew what he was thinking.
Of course Chang Sheng knew what they were thinking, because he came from time travel.
He knew exactly what would happen next.
So now he is going to reverse the situation and change the future.
"Gao Hongbo has been working in the national team for almost two years. He has finally become familiar with his position. The World Cup qualifiers are about to start. Changing the coach now will only make the team's performance worse. It will definitely not be better.
This is the objective law of football. And, most importantly, I think Gao Hongbo has found a correct development direction for Chinese football. Chinese football’s physical fitness is excellent in Asia, but around the world, such a physical
Quality is not worth mentioning at all. I am in Europe and I know very well the highest level of football in the world and what kind of physical requirements it has. The Chinese team should adopt the current technical flow and use overall cooperation to make up for our
The lack of personal quality. In this way, we not only have the technical and tactical ability of the Japanese team, but also have better physical fitness than them. In this way, we can at least return to the first-class level in Asia. Now you want to change the coach. Then
Aren't we going to forcibly interrupt this process? Chinese football has finally found a suitable path, why not let Gao Hongbo continue to lead the team?"
What Chang Sheng said made Vidi and Wang Qiang unable to answer the question.
After a long while, Vidi said: "But, the World Cup in Brazil..."
Chang Sheng smiled: "Could it be possible to advance to the World Cup in Brazil with a different coach? Anyway, we haven't entered the World Cup finals for many years. If we can't make it again, I think it doesn't matter. Compared with the World Cup, it is more important now.
The most important thing is the long-term development plan of the Chinese team. If a head coach always leaves after coaching for two years, what long-term prospects does this team have? The club needs long-term planning, and the national team also needs it. When the Chinese team has a long-term
Plan and be able to consistently implement it. Entering the World Cup finals will be a matter of course, and you don't have to worry about finding a famous coach."
"That's what I said. But the World Cup in Brazil..." Vidi had some words that were not easy to say directly.
However, it is clear that the team will always win, because the World Cup in Brazil is a major event during Vidi's tenure.
If he doesn't care about the World Cup in Brazil, it means that he has not accomplished the most important goal of his tenure.
This is the drawback of the General Administration of Sports appointing the leaders of the Football Association and implementing a rotation system.
Every leader has his own term of office. Once his term is over, the Football Association and Chinese football will have nothing to do with him. He only requires that if the national team performs well during his tenure, he can be promoted and make a fortune.
Official promotion.
When every leader thinks this way, it is naturally impossible for Chinese football to have any long-term plans.
There are no centenary plans or ten-year plans, they are all out of the question.
Chang Sheng also knew that what he said before was not attractive enough to Vidi.
In other words, if the Chinese team cannot be guaranteed to enter the World Cup finals in Brazil, then Gao Hongbo will definitely not be able to stay.
But has the Chinese team finally made it to the World Cup finals in Brazil?
If Gao Hongbo is replaced, there will definitely be no success. This is very clear.
But with Gao Hongbo in charge, it is unclear whether the Chinese team can enter the finals of the World Cup in Brazil, or even win regularly.
This kind of thing has never happened at all.
Chang Sheng thought for a while and then said to Vidi: "If it can be guaranteed that Gao Hongbo will continue to be the coach of the national team, then Lazio Club will be willing to carry out deeper cooperation with the Football Association. For example, we can regularly train Chinese coaches
, to help improve the level of Chinese coaches. We can also guide the development of Chinese football youth training... We can provide the national team with pre-match training, and be responsible for arranging the national team's warm-up opponents... I can help the national team with these. But if Gao Hong
Since Bo is not the head coach of the national team, these cooperation plans are meaningless. I am willing to help Gao Hongbo because I am optimistic about him."
Chang Sheng has made everything clear - if you insist on changing the coach, then all future cooperation with the Chinese Football Association will be gone. I will support Gao Hongbo, and I will not support anyone else.
He just wants to see if the Chinese Football Association is willing to make concessions for these cooperations that can improve the level of Chinese football.
If the Chinese Football Association is still obsessed with worshiping foreigners and insists on finding a world-class coach to coach the national team, then he has nothing to say. Anyway, he can only do this step.
He has no control over what happens to Chinese football next.
Anyway, Chinese football has been dark for a long time. If it continues to be dark, I believe everyone will get used to it.
He is a time traveler, but he is not an almighty God, and he also has things beyond his power.
