18. In the end it's a question of money

Zhang Sheng still has enough confidence in youth training and echelon. ? Now Longteng Club has a reserve team, U17, U13 and U9 echelon. It can be said that among the Chinese League One clubs, it has taken the lead among all teams.

The front line. In addition to the players summoned by the own summoning system, there is no waste of money to acquire outside echelons.

What's more, Jiangcheng Zall is the darling of Jiangcheng Football. Not to mention that they will win next year, just looking at the history of Jiangcheng Zall itself, tracing back to its roots, this team is the one that has truly taken over the banner of Jiangcheng Football.

He is a direct descendant, so he has always been watched and protected by the entire Jiangcheng and even Hubei Province. Therefore, it is not surprising that Zall has reached an agreement with the Jiangcheng Football Association some time ago. In the future, players from the Jiangcheng Football Association will supply Zall.

This means that many football talents have been monopolized by Zall. Even if the Longteng team buys other echelons, the overall ability of the echelons that come over will be very poor, and the cost performance will be very low. It is better for the Longteng team to buy their own

The echelon will be reported to the Football Association first, and will be slowly added later.

Thinking of this, Zhang Sheng still insisted on his approach: "Dad, I think since we already have a football school, there is no need to be so eager for quick success and quick success in the echelon affairs. Now the youth training coaches from Germany are also getting there step by step.

, I think we should still believe them.”

Seeing what Zhang Sheng said, Zhang Zhijun did not try to persuade him. He also knew that it was not cost-effective to just buy an echelon. Because the next thing was more important, and that was the issue of money.

Zhang Zhijun was also very cautious about this question: "Zhang Sheng, the team has just entered the Chinese League One. According to your plan, how long will it take to reach the League One?"

Zhang Zhijun asked this question mainly because he was considering the investment of China League One. Because China League One basically has no income, so how much and how to invest is something that every Chinese League One club needs to be careful about.

Throughout the nearly 10 years of Chinese League One history, the disparity between the rich and the poor in the Chinese League One has indeed become more and more intense. The Chinese League One was founded in 2004, and its predecessor was the League A and B. Due to expansion and other factors, at that time

The investment in China's secondary league has always been relatively small, and an investment of more than 10 million yuan is enough to become a local tycoon in the league. In the first year of the Chinese League, in 2004, the investment of the Jiangcheng team was 3.3 million yuan, ranking second in the Chinese League.

Jiangsu Sainty invested the most 4.6 million yuan, while Zhuhai Zhongbang, which successfully joined hands with the Jiangcheng team that year, invested only 2.6 million yuan. In the subsequent 2o14 season, the investment of the Jiangcheng team was also second in the Chinese League One, but it was

6,000,000 yuan was spent, and the two competing teams, Chongqing Lifan and Shijiazhuang Yongchang, spent 7,000,000 yuan and 4,000,000 yuan respectively. Comparing the two sets of figures, it is not difficult for us to see the growth rate in team investment in the past ten years.

Before 2009, the Chinese League One had been in a tepid state with tens of millions in redundancies and millions in relegation. It was not until Guangzhou Evergrande took over Chinese Football that the situation began to change dramatically. In the 2010 season, the Chinese League One

In the league, Guangzhou Evergrande invested 170 million yuan and hired Li Zhangzhu as the head coach. Under the leadership of stars such as Muric, Zheng Zhi, and Gao Lin, Guangzhou Evergrande was the most successful in the history of the Chinese League One.

In the 2o11 season, Dalian Albin and Guangzhou R&F became the top teams in the Chinese League One. In the end, Albin invested more than 7 million yuan to succeed, and R&F also spent a lot of money.

According to incomplete statistics, the average investment by Chinese League One teams last year was about 1.5 million yuan. In the end, the two teams competing, Shanghai East Asia team, invested about 18 million yuan, and Jiangcheng Zall team invested about 50 million yuan.

The investment gap between the two teams is relatively large because the models of the two teams are different. As the Shanghai East Asia team that was trained by himself, the wages and bonuses paid by Xu Genbao to the players are not high, but these players will still devote themselves to the team.

Try your best. In addition to Harbin Yiteng and Shanghai East Asia, which have better youth training systems, the investment investment of Jianye, Yongchang, Lifan, and Zall fluctuates around 5,000 million.

In the past ten years, the value of players has also doubled. In addition to expensive foreign players, a comparison can be made with the introduction of local central defenders: In 2004, Li Zifei, the defense backbone introduced by the Jiangcheng team from the Guangzhou team, cost 156

million; and by 2o14, the transfer fee for young player Liu Yang, who transferred from Shandong Luneng to Jiangcheng Team, was 3.5 million yuan. In addition, the substantial increase in salary income has also become an operation that every team must face.

Cost. Putting aside the snowballing winning bonuses, a monthly income of 10,000 yuan seemed to be the maximum salary among Chinese League One players ten years ago, but now it is not an uncommon phenomenon to earn more than one million yuan a year.

Lack of fan attention and market returns, Chinese League One teams have no choice but to rely on themselves if they want to successfully counterattack, and the most direct way is to rush forward. Throughout the history of the Chinese League One, every club that rushes has its own unique way of operating.

, Guangzhou Evergrande, Dalian Albin and other giants have used huge investments in exchange for short-term returns, while Shanghai East Asia and Yi Teng have also achieved success with youth training and long-term investment. Harbin Yi Teng only invests more than 1,000 per year.

Wan, but achieved very good results.

Zhang Zhijun was previously concerned about the youth training system, and also wanted to ask Zhang Sheng clearly about his operational ideas, so that he could be mentally prepared for the annual investment.

Zhang Sheng answered Zhang Zhijun's question very confidently: "I guarantee that our team will be successful this year."

Zhang Zhijun and Zhang Chen looked at each other, obviously a little dissatisfied with this answer. Zhang Chen also advised: "Brother, I know you are very confident in the team, but it is not easy to deal with this matter."

The level of Class A is not comparable to that of Class B. I think we still need to have a comprehensive and detailed plan."

Zhang Sheng wanted to refute on the spot, but was immediately stopped by Zhang Zhijun: "I know what you want to say, whether you want to issue another military order. Your brother also cares about you. The matter you are dealing with is not simple. This is not just about you.

The development of the team is now also related to the strategic planning of the group and can no longer be left to your own devices."

Seeing that his father and brother were so cautious, Zhang Sheng couldn't just say I have a summoning system, don't worry. In the end, Zhang Sheng compromised. He remembered Zhang Sheng's plan before he traveled through time: "According to the worst case scenario

I plan to spend three years on it. I have my own ideas about the investment."

Zhang Zhijun nodded: "Then tell me."

Zhang Sheng pointed his finger and said: "Dad, you should know the cost of Zall Chong last year, right?"

Seeing Zhang Zhijun nodding to express his understanding, Zhang Sheng continued: "I don't think we need to spend 5,000 yuan to invest in Chongzhong. First, our foreign players are relatively low-priced, and now the four foreign players we signed together only cost the money."

1oo euros. Secondly, our players are all trained by ourselves, and the salary is relatively low. I calculated that it is less than 2oo."

Zhang Chen interrupted and asked: "Is the salary so small?"

Zhang Sheng nodded and said: "That's right. Most teams have four levels of salary, 2ooo3ooo5ooo8ooo. Because we are all young players, our salary is lower. But we have to do a good job in terms of bonuses. Last season, we

The league winning prize is 1o for each game, and the draw is 5. The Chinese League matches are more difficult. I want to set the winning prize at 2o, and the draw is 5. As for the FA Cup winning and promotion awards, just keep them unchanged.

That’s fine. But the most important thing is that the bonuses should be released in a timely manner, preferably the day after the game, so that the bonuses are more effective for the players.”

Zhang Zhijun asked worriedly: "Is the bonus too small?"

Zhang Sheng shook his head and emphasized again: "Although this bonus is not much, it should be quite a lot. The most important thing is that we can ensure that it is released in time."

In fact, Zhang Sheng meant what he said. Nowadays, many Chinese League One teams have a practice, which is to try to increase the salary and bonus of introduced players. After bringing the players into the team, they will be owed first. Even if the budget is not enough, they can wait until next year.

After budgeting, we can 'tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall'.

Take Chengdu Tiancheng as an example. As the spark of professional football in Chengdu, it was eventually relegated due to a financial crisis. Until the end, the players' salary arrears were not resolved. So far, Sichuan football has no professional team.

What was even more troublesome was the 8oo salary arrears scandal in Nanjing. As a result, only 12 players signed up for one game, and the team was demoralized and was relegated to the second division. Of course, it was not just the two players who were owed wages.

Every team, including Guangdong Sunshine Fountain, Qingdao Hainiu, Shenzhen Red Diamonds and Shenyang Zhongze, had scandals over wage arrears. Later, the Chinese Football Association stipulated that if wages and bonuses were not paid before 17:00 on January 15,

If the team confirms the form (also commonly known as the non-arrears salary form), the team will automatically lose its registration qualification!

Zhang Zhijun is also very satisfied with this statement: "This is a practical way to do things. Just follow what you said. Then can you tell me how much funds are needed in total every year?"

Zhang Sheng thought for a while and confirmed: "According to my idea, the annual funding of 1500 is considered to be the maximum. Of course, if the results in the Football Association Cup are good, there may be bonuses."

Zhang Zhijun finally made a decision: "Let's do it. For the purchase of players, the group will provide 3,000 funds every year. You have already decided this year, forget it. For the operation of the club, the group will also provide 3,000 funds every year. As for the surplus transferred out by the players,

You can control it yourself, you can put it in the bonus, or you can add it to the transfer fee. The limit is limited to three years. After three years, the club will make other plans." Zhang Zhijun turned to look at Zhang Chen, "Then there is Zhang Chen.

This year the group will concentrate resources to develop the Olympic Sports Center project. This project and the connection with the football club will be left to you. I hope that you two brothers will work together and make a profit." (To be continued.
