Grassroots Glory

　　 Today is okay. When I was idle, I suddenly thought of some feelings. By the way, I wrote such an article to share with you some of the feelings related to this book.

　　Written to the present, the two volumes of texts are over. Zhou Tiancheng transformed from a college player into a Schalke first team. The next step is the beginning of his truly legendary journey.

From a college player to a Schalke first team player, Zhou Tiancheng has completed a huge identity leap and transformation. Probably only the novel can have this plot. In reality, except for Valdy from the seventh-level amateur league to a Premier League superstar, It is almost impossible to dare to think about it.

　　But this is the most important theme that I want to express in this book. I wrote a sentence on the title page of the work: Football, the biggest secret is that the master is in the folk. When writing this sentence, as a Chinese fan, I can't help but think of Chinese football and the national team.

　　Although it will touch some people's sensitive nerves, as a Chinese fan, it's enough to scold, cool off, calm down, how many people really don't want the national team to be strong?

　　 In fact, through Zhou Tiancheng's previous experience, what I want to express is that we really don't lack talents. The Guardian once reported in 2013 that there were 7,000 Messi hidden in Chinese folk. For this, I am convinced. Because children in Xinjiang, Sichuan, and Guangdong are really talented in football, Nanpai football was once the most important technical genre of Chinese football, and it is possible to cultivate Messi players.

　　 But the most important question is, how are they known to the public?

　　If all can be dug out, seven thousand Messi, I wipe it! Can the World Cup champion be taken with it closed?

　　 But obviously this is unrealistic, and we are not utopianists, then there is another way. Those football seedlings scattered overseas can always fight for it?

　　 For example, Hou Yongyong, a Norwegian Chinese talented teenager from previous years, has reported in the past two years that Li Tenglong, who debuted in the Russian Super League, has now joined the AC Milan echelon. There shouldn't be too many of them. They have the skills and capabilities, and they don’t have the bad habits left over from domestic youth training. They can be called upon, but only if they are willing to give them opportunities.

　　 There are too many hidden masters in the folk. If there is a more perfect mechanism to dig these relics, stories and examples like Zhou Tiancheng will abound in the future.
