Specific direction
Some provinces and cities have returned to the "manual labor system"
After 24 years, why is our football so different from Japanese football? In the office of the Municipal Football Association, Secretary General Gu Jianming first drew two figures on a piece of white paper-a regular triangle and an inverted triangle, telling reporters: "This regular triangle is Japanese football and the inverted triangle is our China football."
Our understanding of football is quite different from that of Japan. Japanese regard football as the carrier of teenagers' spirit of unity and cooperation and the way of moral education, but in many places in China, football is a "specialty". In order to learn this "specialty", young fans even give up their studies.
"Teenagers learning football, aged between 13 and 17, must never give up their studies. Regrettably, as far as I know, there are signs that some provinces and cities in China are going back to this' manual labor system', and they must go back! " Yan Jianming said.
Specific population
The football population is only 1/20 of Japan's.
Everyone is generally puzzled, why can't China choose 1 1 an excellent player who can "rush out of Asia and go to the world"? However, conclusive data show that the population of Japan is 1.28 million, of which the football population is about 2 million, accounting for 1.6% of the Japanese population, which is 20 times that of China. In this contrast, if China football surpasses Japanese football, will God laugh?
Specific to Chengdu, Sichuan, why has our football population gone from bad to worse in the past 24 years? In this regard, Gu Jianming believes that on the one hand, there may be some problems in the statistics of football population. For example, not every amateur player will be registered with the Municipal Football Association, so the actual population may be slightly more than the "data population"; On the other hand, there are not enough football venues in Chengdu, and this problem is more prominent in big cities such as Beijing and Shanghai.
Than hardware
The per capita site area is only 0. 1 m2.
Specific to Chengdu, in addition to the football population is lower than everyone's imagination, there are some little-known embarrassing data. According to a sports veteran, in the statistics of some time ago, the per capita stadium area in Chengdu was only 0.3 square meters. Considering that most of the stadiums are concentrated in colleges and universities, and the stadiums in various colleges and universities are not completely open, the actual per capita stadium area in Chengdu is only about 0. 1 square meter, which is not even a poor "standing cone".
In contrast, in Japan, the per capita area of sports venues is as high as 19 square meters, and the government's support is beyond our imagination. In some countries in Europe and America, the per capita stadium area is even much higher than that in Japan.
In the final analysis, Gu Jianming summed it up in an interview: "The combination of sports and education that we often talk about is often incomprehensible to foreigners, because in their concept, sports and education are inherently integrated, and sports is a part of education. For example, in some countries in South America, the original intention of letting teenagers learn football may be just to keep them away from drugs; For example, in Japan, football is a way of moral education, which can benefit teenagers for life, so if middle school students play well, they can go directly to universities or professional clubs. What does this mean? It shows that in the past, we made a rigid division between sports and education. If this problem can be solved, there will be hope for football in China. Revitalizing football in China is a systematic project.
There are still institutional problems, and now it is blocked. Football is a long-term undertaking. Football in any country can hardly take off without a long-term plan. Japan's football take-off plan spans 50 years. Over the years, they have gradually become a football power by "one step at a time".
Who will really use these four or five years as the president of China Football Association to build the foundation of football? Their term of office is four years. Who wants the predecessors to plant trees and the descendants to enjoy the cool? There is also the lack of supervision in football, which leads to rampant fake gambling. Of course, fortunately, the football community in China now has a clearer understanding of this, as evidenced by the fall of the Dragon King and the reorganization of the league, and Wang Jianlin's return to football, but I still hope that the reform will be thorough.
