Golden Greenery
Chapter 394 The future will belong to Zhuo Yang
If you are suddenly asked to choose between a Chinese and a Brazilian based on your feelings, and choose the one who you think plays table tennis better, there is no suspense about which one you will choose, and the same is true for football.
Zhuo Yang narrowly lost to Ronaldinho in the FIFA World Player of the Year selection. If you analyze the reasons in detail, you will know that it is not surprising.
First of all, the selection of World Footballer is based on the national team head coaches and national team captains of all countries in the world, regardless of the size of the country. To be honest, there are more than 200 countries and regions in the world, many of which I have never heard of. Even if I have heard of them, I still can’t figure out their geographical locations. But no matter what, Tuvalu and Germany have the same two votes.
To be honest, most of the national team managers in the world are pure idiots. They are far away from the latest global football information, and these people do not care about current affairs. They are not as familiar with football fashion as fans, nor do they understand the rise and fall of mainstream football; they are not as keen on watching top-level events as senior fans, and watching goal highlights every now and then is considered business development training.
There are many head coaches who only care about their own three-point land and are far behind the development of football in the era. About ten years ago, a football reporter chatted with the coach of his national team and asked him to tell him who the most powerful star in the world is today. The head coach pondered for a long time, racking his brains to search from his barren memories, and finally said in his seaside dialect with a solemn accent: I thought, if you ask for something awesome, it will make Sima La hide.
At that time, the former world champion had retired for more than two years, and had been away from his peak for seven or eight years.
You guessed it right, he is the head coach of the Chinese team.
It is conceivable how reliable the results selected by these head coaches and captains will be. Most of the time, accumulated reputation alone can determine everything. Even the head coaches and captains of many countries did not see the ballots at all, and the Football Association staff filled them out for them. And I’ve also heard that many head coaches and captains don’t take it seriously at all and just tick the top three names on the list every time, no matter who they are.
A Chinese and a Brazilian compete in football, and the referees are these completely unreliable people, most of them just rely on feeling most of the time.
Secondly, the selection of World Footballer has never been purely about football. Behind it is the battle between the two major football sectors of South America and Europe, as well as the competition among the agents behind the players.
Raiola is one of the most outstanding football agents in Europe, but the most powerful agent in the world today is far from him, but the Uruguayan named Juan Figel.
Figel is known as the "godfather of football" in Brazil. He controls more than 95% of the channels for South American players to Europe. This old man whose real age is doubtful, this shrewd man who won the South American chess championship when he was young, is the actual controller of South American players and player foreign trade. Even at his peak, Figel controlled the player transfer market in numerous countries across the continent.
No matter how good other agents in South America are, they must rely on Figel to survive. They also rely on Figel's various resources and power. Take Ronaldinho as an example. Although his agent is his brother Assis, Assis is essentially a second-level agent under Figel, who is responsible for Ronaldinho. Including Ronaldo, Maradona, and Messi, etc., all belong to this list.
Juan Figel is actually the talker in the entire South American football world, and South American football federations often rely on him for his voice. Even in FIFA, Figel has considerable say and is a leader among football agents.
Many brokers in Europe united and fought for many years before gradually reducing Figel's sphere of influence in Europe to a corner of the Iberian Peninsula. Until a few years ago, with the encouragement and assistance of his European colleagues, the former Mazai and Portuguese Mendes of Figel set up a separate business and began to dismantle Figel's last European territory from within the Portuguese football world. .
But the South American continent is still Figel’s unshakable backyard.
The selection of World Footballer has always been a competition between Europe and South America. Compared with Figel's dominance of South America, there will naturally be a synergy behind the South American candidates, while it is difficult for European football agents to fight on their own and constrain each other. Confronting him, at least at this stage, is like this.
Ronaldo's sudden appearance at that time also coincided with the football world entering a period of high commercialization. Ronaldo used his unparalleled football talent to make other players shy away. The mainstream European football world has launched many people to compete with them, but both Figo and Beckham have certain flaws, and even Zidane is still slightly behind.
Now that Ronaldinho has not yet aged, Ronaldinho appears again aggressively. The European football world is in urgent need of a new force to form an evil force with Ronaldinho, so the emergence of Zhuo Yang also has this background.
In fact, it is not only a secret war between South America and Europe, nor a competition between economic people. Behind the selection of World Footballer, there are also the interests of big-name sponsors. The most obvious ones are the dispute between Nike and Adidas, and the dispute between Pepsi-Cola and Coca-Cola, this battle will also spread to the ownership of the World Cup champion.
Modern football has never been simple football. Various interests and exchanges are looming in it.
.
"Ronnie is my friend. No matter how you look at it, he deserves this honor. This is a reward for his outstanding contribution to football." Zhuo Yang said in his acceptance speech. "I am flattered to win this runner-up. I am very grateful to FIFA and all the judges for their love."
People like Zhuo Yang usually can't say more than three high-sounding words.
"My brother Franck Ribery is just unlucky. He is the best winger in world football. Dear Scar, I support you to beat Ronnie next year. He is not as good-looking as you. Come on!"
Ronaldinho is no ordinary coquettish either. "From a football perspective, the three of us are actually evenly matched, and whoever wins this award deserves it. Of course, they say this is an era of good looks. My appearance is a little bit ahead of Zhuo Yang and Frank. This Maybe that’s the key to my victory.”
Zhuo Yang: "..."
Scar: "..."
Since the day he met Ronaldinho, Zhuo Yang felt that Scar was actually quite attractive.
The year-end awards are all over. Who dares to say that Zhuo Yang, who is only 20 years old, failed to win both awards? It is a failure? The heroic Mr. Golden Ball, the promising Mr. World Asia, even Ronaldinho has admitted in his heart that the foreseeable future belongs to Zhuo Yang.
