Analyze the current situation of Chinese soccer with sociology

About Chinese soccer, Huang Jianxiang has a good analysis. I think he's right:

(Excerpt) Huang Jianxiang: First of all, I'll start with a question for you, all the students and teachers present can participate in a survey on the spot, please put forward what you think is the number one reason that hinders the development of Chinese soccer or leads to the status quo of Chinese soccer?

Answer: The system.

Huang Jianxiang: I heard the voice of no one is the correct answer, I'm sorry to inform the students of Zhejiang University, you are not more professional than my previous lectures of other university students in this area, so still have to listen to me, you and other university students are the same, the first thing you think of is that the system is the state institutions, in fact, it is wrong, first of all, the first reason is that every friend here! The first reason is that every friend here, may I ask the male students here, in your primary and secondary school days, who can play soccer two or three times a week? How many? A rough count of the people present today is only about 20, today came to this auditorium is more than 400 seats, even if half of the men, only one-tenth, I believe that today came to the soccer fans, among you such a game is only one-tenth, so that the popularization of Chinese soccer is the first major problem.

We have too few people playing soccer, although we have too many people, but we have too few people playing soccer, if it is according to the popularity of soccer, per capita will play soccer, this ratio of every 10,000 people will play soccer how many? Or how many people have played soccer?

This standard to draw a map of the world, China will be what position? Probably also on the side to find 53 to take a magnifying glass, oh, China, as we see on the world map (cul-de-sac while), the Vatican basically can not be found.

This year we sent into the World Cup 20 strong about 20 countries and regions, back after the so-called young reporter's biggest feeling is downcast, hit, said the **** the same sentence is what? Don't look at us, we are too few people to play soccer?

What is the first thing that leads to the serious problem of popularization? Our soccer players, including some of our other sports athletes are picked out to practice from a young age, they are not the same as you, their living environment is not the same as you, which at the same time means that you are deprived of the right to receive this sport and the opportunity to some of you to give you the right opportunity to some of you there are China's Cristiano Ronaldo, Zinedine Zidane, but you do not have the opportunity to contact, memorize a big book, and then you have the opportunity to play the game. The opportunity to contact, carrying a big schoolbag to study, the teacher also dare not, parents also dare not, have the time to better go to read some books.

And those children who go to practice sports are deprived of the opportunity to be culturally educated, they are even less talented and can only be filled as an ordinary player, their sports talent may not be as good as some people here.

What does athletic talent consist of? Muscle mass, nerve type, reaction type, reaction speed, explosiveness, patience coordination, balance and even your will quality? Our athletes are developed in such a way that from a young age, in a certain age group, in a certain city, in a certain province, say 85 age group, a **** picks out 100 people, when they are 10 years old it's 100, when they are 15 years old it's 80 people left, maybe some with broken legs, when they are 20 years old it's 60 people left, and it's just picking out of that people, in fact, other people of their age. simply lost that opportunity, and many of you are much better than them, or grew physically later than them.

The degree of our popularity has caused the problem of selection and training channels, many of our players chat with us said, in fact, more than they have the talent suitable for playing soccer in a large number of people, when they retired down, they found that this person is really good explosive power, a look at him is a student from the school to play in the school, did not have the opportunity to get in touch with a lot of athletes, said, we just did not break the legs so insisted on a mixed diet, in fact, on talent and brains, in fact, some people are not suitable for this, literature and sports, including scientific research, the most happy time must be your talent, is your mom and dad combined in a moment to decide whether you are the ball net Pele or Maradona.

Some stupid reporter asked Pele when he interviewed him, when will the next Pele appear ah, he said there is no more, my mom and dad's factory has long been closed.

Foreign countries are found in the degree of high popularity almost all boys in elementary school have the opportunity to play soccer, this opportunity is fair to everyone, so you like it or not you whether you have talent, whether you can adhere to is another matter, this opportunity is open to everyone, this high level of coaching to discover that this person has superb quality extraordinary, Pele, Luo is such a person, 9 years old, 10 years old by the coach to discover that the person has a superb quality of the extraordinary, Pele, Luo is such a person, 9 years old, 10 years old by the coach to discover that the person has superb quality extraordinary, Pele, Luo is such a person. age, 10 years old was discovered by the coach, people are found and protected, do not let him break his legs, happy not to let his spirit and psychology leave any shadow.

For example, when very young was bullied by the big kids on the field, it will leave a shadow, to protect his mental side, in training to overcome their shortcomings, you have poor patience is okay, let you happy, but you are easy to get fat, I will control you to eat less sweets.

Ronaldo at the age of 10 years old elementary school teacher wrote comments that this person in the future is difficult to predict the development of this person, to him do not let him get fat, let him grin and giggle every day, basically. Because in the course of the game, our team as long as a person can be, because he is a person to the other side of the whole shaking, do not have to let him practice endurance running, long-distance running when he buried himself, in his small time to make up for the lack of patience in your, his muscle type to change, to change the muscle fiber tissue of this super talented, there is no now Ronaldo, to more than a mediocre person, but less A Ronaldo, our kind of cultivation system, can only be cultivated, because in the small time only these people practiced, so can only practice hard.

Everyone lacks what to make up for what, do not practice can not, because you itself is not a single item of the body index is particularly extraordinary, can only be the various items are practiced average. itself is a mediocre, the serious lack of popularity will affect the discovery of professionals and reserves, at the amateur level places will play soccer, I jokingly said, played soccer Chinese men are very few, for example, how many of the 1% of men in our country will play soccer?

It is a European country's population, if we have a European country's men will play soccer, we are sure to play part of the football over South Korea and Japan, we may be able to play two or three times a week in China, the men's soccer is not more than two million, the conclusion of the Liu Jianhong more ruthless, directly is cut in half, is a million, which is decided because of the lack of real participation and understanding, the Chinese public among the football watching The Chinese people watch the ball, the culture of watching the ball is very developed, the real audience among the real soccer have a real understanding of the not many.

So it's easy to be misled, so some people accuse me of misleading people, which is understandable, it's easy to do our job, there aren't a lot of viewers who have actually played, so it's easy to fool them.

In my past ten years is mainly dry to let the audience from a professional and accurate point of view to see and understand soccer and soccer, at least the terminology is a whole understand, but there is also a difficulty, it is difficult because of the real understanding of the people involved in too few, so it is easy to run away from the wrong side of the soccer reporter misled, I'm not targeting a colleague, the World Youth Championships in Holland last summer, a player of the Chinese team is happy, is a Shanghai A newspaper sports reporter, forgive yes she is a girl, but can not be forgiven is that she did four years down, is the old reporter of the soccer world, reported the top ten qualifications are cattle, she said "corner kicks is not a positioning ball ah? I thought she was joking, she is a graduate of Shanghai Sports University, a senior soccer reporter asked me if the corner kick is a set piece? I explained to her what is a set piece, first of all, the set piece is first from the English, corner kicks and penalty kicks, goal kicks are considered set pieces, and even out-of-bounds balls are considered, to give her an understanding, but so there are many journalists who do not have the opportunity to let me give her an understanding of the ah, these professional journalists are reluctant to come, they feel that they understand, in fact, I think that they should be here to listen to ah.

The lack of popularization in the professional and amateur aspects of the impact, just said two aspects, there is another aspect.

What I said may not be complete, there is another aspect due to the lack of popularization, the degree of understanding and perspective, the way of thinking, due to the lack of personal involvement, this level of understanding among our fans is indeed certainly not as good as in Brazil, Italy and Germany, do not look at the level of Germany's national team in general, but Germany's amateur soccer is very popular, hundreds of thousands of amateur matches every weekend in the kick, especially in primary and secondary schools, people have a good understanding of football. Elementary school and secondary schools, how do people have a good understanding of soccer and how do they view the soccer culture of a nation and a country? How do you look at wins and losses, how do you look at accidents, people's second division league can be full.

Because there is participation with this soccer distance close, this is from the heart need it, we are not on the national essence of the opinion, when we have the popularity of soccer has half the popularity of mahjong, that is, half of the people who will play mahjong will play soccer basically invincible.

The accumulation of this soccer culture, need a time, this topic said back not to compliment the students but on all of us have high hopes, only our equipment economy is more developed sustained and stable development of 50 years, the people really need a variety of spare time culture and leisure, whether it's sports or other, positive, healthy and upward legal, this day reserves and accumulation slowly on the regular, first of all! To rely on you, the country's economic construction, the various undertakings to get better, we are the peace and prosperity is the people are happy to pastime things, this is a national livelihood.

The popularity of soccer culture or this perspective to understand what also affects, in turn, culture also affects our people, affecting our parents, children, want to devote themselves to soccer when utilitarianism, a lot of children, if the parents spend money to send him to receive soccer training and training, thinking I must how how I will rely on the golden rice bowl in the future, can not be taken as a hobby, there are life's Enrichment and ideal, are a kind of utilitarianism, I often ask such parents, if your child grows up to do a certain kind of thing are directly related to his future, play a positive role, without a little waste this is possible? On the other hand, if you really force-feed him like this, will he be able to use it in the future?

We do not say anything else, from the point of view of the spiritual level of people, emotions, personality and communication with others, people do not have one or two sides of the hobby of healthy emotions, I think it is very scary. Ancient people have a famous saying: "people without addiction can not be their friendship" this person does not have any true character.

A few years ago there was a Ma Jiajiu incident, from my sports figure, if he has a hobby that he is obsessed with, if he plays soccer, basketball, or long-distance running, or weightlifting, he can find a cathartic channel, a channel to communicate with others, because it is a language, you have a hobby, you will know a lot of people because of it and change your life. This is a window, in the formative years of school and university students' world view in the formation of the stage of positive and healthy sports and cultural hobbies, for a person is very important.

What I said just now is a flaw in the popularization of soccer culture, in fact, directly to the impediment to the development of Chinese soccer, leading to the development of the status quo of soccer the second most serious is our culture.

Each country's cultural traditions have big advantages and disadvantages, the Germans speak of order is dull, classical music out of a lot of composers, but to the modern music Germans basically did not, the accumulation of the history of the cultural traditions of the great Chinese nation, the formation of the national character and culture, there are many many advantages, I only say that our culture is not suitable for some of the shortcomings of the soccer movement.

For example, we grew up from kindergarten all the way to the big, the education we received, we heard the teacher's principal favorite saying is what? Our teachers like good children, do not like you too prickly, too alternative, too different from others, our kindergarten let students sit with their hands behind their backs, Western kindergarten children are willing to how to stay how to stay, willing to do what to do, our education has formed a kind of subconscious to instill in you from childhood, that is, I do not want to and other people are not the same, this will be criticized by the teacher, I try to be the same as everyone else. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands dirty.

But people must have individual values, how do we protect our own selves, can only be implicit, and even some of our normal and natural rights and desires, including some of the things that an individual should have to be role of collectivism, the collective concept of suppression.

The relationship between our individual and the collective and the Western worldview philosophical view is not the same, so that leads to in our life, work environment, you have not yet gone into society, is still quite a bit better, in your age group when you enjoy more modern education than we are, so you are a bit more individual than we are, but I believe that you still more or less feel that our kind of The cultural concepts that allow us all to draw a small circle in any way, whether it is a unit or a school or a team of some kind, will find that on the surface there is no individuality, everyone is quite honest and well-behaved, but secretly there is no collective.

We are in such a distorted relationship between the individual and the collective, so many of our national elites, scholars, critics said in the last century, including Westerners also said that we Chinese are a scattered sand, but now we are making progress and change, but the impact of this is not a few decades will take a much longer period of time, and will require the emergence of new people in the generation.

This phenomenon to the soccer field, we can think of the same Asian teams, we and the Japanese and Koreans where the gap? We do not have that kind of team consciousness, this is a habit, your habits from childhood, you have a kind of subconscious, played soccer students may understand what I said, you are on the field a lot of times it is too late to think, a lot of your action is usually formed by the reflexes, your thinking process is not, it is your usual day to day, you are the kind of person you can play what kind of soccer.

Our players play football is always passive run, because he grew up without real teamwork, our so-called unity, the collective concept of supremacy, in fact, is the mandatory indoctrination, did not solve the relationship between the individual and the collective, the person's deepest heart is to resist, because of their own normal desire to be suppressed, inevitably want to revolt, we are not as good as the Japanese team and the South Korean team of the spirit of collaboration, and even the collaborative The Japanese and Korean teams are not as collaborative as the Japanese and Korean teams, they don't even have a sense of collaboration, the body is dominated by the subconscious mind at the stadium, he just won't run one more step to make the passes of his teammates easier.

On the other hand, we are not as individualized as African and South American players, who dare to show off and express themselves, because who dares to do so since childhood? They were all patted all the way up by their teachers, and by the time they graduated from college they had hundreds of stitches in their heads. Soccer is the most important combination of the individual and the collective, and the individual doesn't have the courage to take responsibility, and the collective actually doesn't have the subconsciousness of real teamwork at all, even the conditioned reflexes, so let's think about it, isn't that right?

I've talked to a lot of players, and our players amazed me, I said you guys are better than Zidane, why? Zidane must only have one standard when playing soccer is how to put a game team how to play soccer, the first action is in accordance with this domination of his body, domination of his subconscious, our players more than Zidane think together, our players kick the ball when they look up, this person is not good with me, I do not give him a pass, I must pass to the one that is good with me, a lot of weighty international players told me that wherever the The game is played well when it is a time of solidarity, a lot of our games are actually decided off the field, it's all about interpersonal relationships.

This is the impact of our social culture on soccer, soccer is one of the largest number of people on the field, the largest field of the project, so it is more refractive of the cultural background on which it relies on, the Western performance there is a famous saying that what kind of audience there is what kind of actors, I apply this sentence boldly said that "what kind of society there is what kind of soccer team! "Our overall progress, we all these pillars to promote the overall progress of society, will lead to the development of many aspects.

The last is the problem of the system, this with a counterfactual, a variety of institutions five, whether it is the former Soviet Union socialist system or the Western capitalist system, whether it is a personal religion, you look at Islam, Buddhism, Catholicism, Christianity, no matter what, there are excellent teams have a lot of satisfactory results, have trained a lot of excellent stars so that the system is the last one.

We can think, the same system we still get 32 gold medals in the Olympics, soccer can not get up, is the problem of the national institutions of the Football Association, still not, Brazil has 160 million people, even if half of them are men, about half of them will play football, our colleagues in Brazil interview, at any time you can see a lot of people in the football, all age groups have, all let them feel that our interview reporter! All are amateur soccer masters, to there are embarrassed to apply, no wonder we said in the early 90's A A some of the so-called domestic brokers ran to South America, A A team to select some people casually in the street to bring back two people are good.

But the Brazilians have a joke, we may not know, King Pele as well as Bally shell (sound) are serving as Brazil's Minister of Sports, but they can not do the job of the negative to go, because of the hall of the Minister of Sports, equivalent to our country's Yuan Weimin, can not get the president of the Brazilian Football Federation, he did not know what Brazil in the end what game in the end in the kick what?

The soccer kingdom is ridiculous, do you know that Brazil has a regular soccer league? They all go their own way, they all think they are the best in the world, it's never the state of Rio that plays their own league, they play a state league, a Brazilian Cup, and a South American Libertadores Cup at the same time, the most ridiculous thing is that there was one day, I can't remember the date, but I'm going to say it, it was a day when the great S?o Paulo team sent out four teams to play in four games at the same time, so the president of the Brazilian Football Association (ABF) The position is absolutely golden, and there will be problems of one kind or another, with groups below reflecting down, with sponsors.

Tangled Minister of Sports Pele with their popularity in Brazil, they are respected more than the President, they can not control the FA President Teixeira (sound), we remember the 1998 World Cup in France, held in the United States of America, the draw a ceremony, when there was no invitation to the king of the ball Pele to participate in this ceremony, they are very black.

Zico (sound) 40 years old when two years as Minister of Sports and he can not fight, in Brazil even rice can not mix, no team asked him to be a coach, and then had to go to Japan to play "L League", why Zico so respected in Japan, is that after he was 40 years old have driven the Japanese league's appeal, indeed, led to the overall development of Japanese football, and the development of Japanese football. The Japanese soccer overall development, Jike in Japan treatment is very high, on the Teixeira so a person, because he is out of talent, is because of the popularity of.

Brazilians said such a joke, Brazilians believe that God is Brazilian, they also believe that God in the creation of soccer and the world, they asked the Brazilians what you want, the Brazilians said we want the best players, so Brazil has the best players, and this is paired with the world's worst soccer managers, but this does not prevent them from getting the world championship.

So the system is secondary, if we don't popularize it, if we have year-round primary and secondary school students who play soccer two or three times a week up to 100,000, so that every Chinese player has tens of thousands of people behind him watching his position, they will definitely play well, if it's a one-in-a-million, one-in-a-thousand, these players won't think about that at all.

Finally repeat the current state of Chinese soccer directly three reasons, in order of importance: popularization, culture, and finally the system
