Chapter 85 Returning to China Again
After basically finalizing Senal's problem, Zhang Xian was about to leave.
But he did not intend to go back to Germany directly. Since he came out, he still needed to go to Asia.
The construction of major football schools has entered the agenda, and the funds have been allocated and the construction has been started.
However, the market investigation issues in various countries still need to be checked by Zhang Xian himself.
Zhang Xian bought the plane that night and went directly to China.
Hoffenheim has a strong foundation in the Chinese market and is also a market that clubs must strive for.
Zhang Xian needs to maintain his relationships and ensure the opening of football channels between Asia and Europe.
China is a big country with a population of 1.4 billion. Zhang Xian doesn’t believe that even in the football desert, can’t find a good seedling for playing football?
Today, Hoffenheim has opened three football schools in China, located in the Magic City, Guangzhou and the Capital, these three major cities.
The assessment standards of Hoffenheim Football School are different from those of other football schools.
The students are divided into three levels in total.
First: ordinary players who spend money.
Second: High-quality seedlings that don’t spend money.
Third: The core seedlings that the club focuses on cultivating.
The third person is often sent directly to Sonal youth training after the assessment is over.
The Hoffenheim Football School enrollment season will be assessed every year, and everything is based on technology and talent.
As long as he passes the Hoffenheim Football School assessment and performs well enough, Hoffenheim will bear all the costs of young players going on a professional path.
And those more ordinary players either spend money to study or go home.
Football schools are not charities. They will naturally cultivate talent, but they will not lose money to do tiring work without talent.
The plane Zhang Xian was on arrived at Guangzhou Airport at 3 a.m. the next day.
Outside the airport, the Hoffenheim Asian market leader is already waiting here.
Liang Chengdong, 45 years old, is unmarried.
As a former football reporter, he has rich industry experience. It is particularly difficult to find a football manager when the entire football industry is in decline.
Liang Chengdong is already tired of writing and writing, and wants to transform.
He was lucky enough to win Hoffenheim's favor.
However, as the head of the Asian region, Liang Chengdong lacks management experience.
Fortunately, Hoffenheim has professional training, perhaps they are interested in Liang Chengdong's sports information and experience.
Liang Chengdong said he was the head of the Asian region, but he only managed three football schools in China, and the remaining dozen Asian football schools were not divided into him.
But he was not in a hurry. He believed that as long as he did well enough, he would gain Hoffenheim's trust.
Moreover, he has a strong enthusiasm for this matter.
During his career as a reporter, Liang Chengdong was famous for his sharp writing style and always criticized those who were ambitious and wanted to implement special policies.
In his vision, the rise of football is inseparable from youth training.
And youth training must be done by someone.
Although the current Chinese Football Association is pretty good, it has begun to understand the importance of youth training and has begun to continuously increase the weight of youth training.
But these are not enough. China is too behind. If it wants to rise rapidly, it requires an efficient solution.
And this is to open up football channels with Europe and send out excellent seedlings.
When the seeds are sown, will the flowers bloom for a short time?
Of course, these are still a bit far away. The thing that makes him feel most urgent at the moment is to receive the big boss.
The 'tyrant' in Hoffenheim is coming!
Liang Chengdong learned about Zhang Xian through the media and information, and after being competent as the head of Hoffenheim's Asia region, he learned more in detail through communication between colleagues.
But the more he understood, the more frightened he felt.
A man who brought Hoffenheim from the country team to the Champions League.
A football boss who stomps his feet will shock the German football world.
A absolute right to say one thing in Hoffenheim.
These are warning him how important this person is!
Therefore, Liang Chengdong also rushed over early and waited for the pick-up.
The crowd began to walk out of the exit, and Liang Chengdong was looking for it with his toes.
After a while, he finally saw Zhang Xian pushing a small suitcase.
He was dressed in a simple outfit, with a white shirt and black loose trousers, rolled up his cuffs, no decoration on his wrists, and his hair was soft and stuck to his scalp, which looked much younger than his actual age.
Liang Chengdong hurried over.
"Hello, Mr. Zhang, my name is Liang Chengdong, and I am the person in charge of Hoffenheim's Asia region. This time I will be responsible for your inspection in the Chinese region. Do you want to go back to the hotel first or go directly to the football school base?"
Liang Chengdong finished speaking in one breath and looked at Zhang Xian curiously.
He looked ordinary, perhaps because of his loose suit, so he looked extremely thin.
Zhang Xian glanced at the other party a little and said, "First go to the hotel, then notify the supervisors of each department to come over. I want to ask some things briefly."
Liang Chengdong responded quickly, and then led Zhang Xian to the elevator to the underground parking lot.
In November, the weather in the south is still mild, not as hot as Brazil, and it feels warm.
Hoffenheim has a total of three football schools in China, and two are built in the south.
If it were the past, the football environment in the north would be better, but now with the rise of commercialization, the football environment and infrastructure in the south are no longer comparable to those in the north.
The hotel where Zhang Xian stayed began to gather in the Chinese region.
There are only three people in total, and these are all startup teams.
In addition to the three, there are also some Hoffenheim club managers, such as Mark Van Dino, the strategy officer here.
Everyone sat around the sofa, no one dared to speak, their eyes met from time to time, but more of them floated towards the main seat.
Mark Van Dino stood beside Zhang Xian, bowed slightly, explaining Zhang Xian's current progress of the project.
After about five minutes, Zhang Xian looked up and said, "Okay, I already know the basic situation. As for now, everyone is doing well."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They were really afraid that this big boss would come to find fault.
"but..."
Zhang Xian changed his voice and said: "The football school assessment plan means the club, and there is no change in this point. I know some people are thinking about something, but you need to know one thing. Even as the person in charge, you do not have the right to assess. This right belongs to Sonal and the club!"
Hearing this, everyone grinned secretly.
This is giving them a warning. You can do anything, but don’t try the assessment.
One supervisor mustered up his courage; "But they don't understand our national conditions."
Zhang Xian looked up and said, "Why do we need to understand the national conditions? Football is football. In the football school we built, there are only two points: one is to make money and the other is to cultivate!"
The three of them grinned, it was really direct!
"Also, I hope you know a little bit, I don't know what you did before, but here, after I make a decision, you just need to say 'ok'!"
Gudong!
The three of them looked at each other, they were really not ordinary domineering!
Chapter completed!
