Chapter 54 The Secret of China's Football Talent Blowout (119/134)
Chinese football seems to be experiencing a blowout, with outstanding players constantly emerging and landing in Europe.
European media began to be surprised by the explosion of Chinese football talents. They even came to China specifically for interviews and reports to explore the reasons and trajectory of Chinese football development.
Then they discovered that there was a company behind most of these players, and that was the Chinese agent company "Star Plan".
This company suddenly emerged in China ten years ago. It was the first to successfully handle the transfer transaction of young Chinese player Wu Lei to join Lazio, and then expanded and grew rapidly.
They almost monopolize the channels for Chinese players to go abroad.
Moreover, this company can always find the most suitable destination for different players, which allows many players to get better and better after going abroad to develop, and as a result, they have won a good reputation in the minds of Chinese players.
The media continues to dig deeper into the company's background.
I discovered that the legal representative of this company is Ji Leng. He was once a well-known sports reporter in China. He once worked as a reporter around Chang Sheng and followed and reported on Chang Sheng, so he had a good relationship with Chang Sheng. The first transaction
Perhaps it was because of this relationship that Wu Lei's transfer transaction was successfully completed.
Some media also want to see if there is any private insider trading between the "Star Plan" brokerage company and Chang Sheng.
For example, in the transaction from Wu Lei to Lazio, did Chang Sheng take kickbacks and use Lazio club money to enrich himself?
Some people even want to dig deeper into the relationship between Chang Sheng and this brokerage company.
However, they found nothing. The "Star Project" company was as clean as a blank sheet of paper, without any doubts. Ji Leng had a good relationship with Chang Sheng, but no one stipulated that good friends could not get involved.
Football vision.
Chang Sheng did not take kickbacks from Wu Lei's transfer transactions.
In addition, the reason why the "Star Plan" agency company has been able to obtain the international transfer agency rights of many Chinese players is also related to their good cooperative relationship with the Chinese Football Association.
It is very normal for such an agency company, which has help from people in European football and people in China, to develop rapidly in just a few years.
Therefore, the European media had to come to the conclusion that the explosion of Chinese football talents is inseparable from this company, but this connection is very clean and normal.
In the past ten years, many Chinese players have gone abroad through various channels-mainly the "Star Project" and landed in leagues around the world.
The Brazilian League in South America, Eastern Europe, Western Europe, Northern Europe, and even Major League Soccer are all places where Chinese players have appeared one after another.
In the beginning, it was to open up the market. There was an influx of a large number of Chinese players. They were not the best players in China. Many of them felt that there was no way out in China and planned to go abroad to make a career. With luck, they might be able to create a new world.
Most of them are young players.
These players are all unknowns in Chinese professional football.
There are also many students from Lazio Football School.
Their strength is not very good. Even if they go abroad to play football, they can only go to those low-level leagues in the second-tier league or the first-tier league, and they may not be able to play as the main force. At first, many of them joined the youth team and could be in the preparation team.
When the team plays a game, it is something worth celebrating.
China's mainstream media basically don't report on players like this and don't care.
Only on the Internet, there will be some fans who are more concerned about Chinese players studying abroad and paying attention to them.
Later, as time passed, high-quality players began to appear.
They are gradually able to play games in some well-known teams, albeit only as substitutes.
Later, they can become the main force.
Now, core players like Ji Ming, Chen Yingxiong, and Chen Jian have appeared.
It took Chinese football ten years to finally blossom in European football.
And what's even more valuable is that these players all went abroad to play football when they were young.
As of now, they are either in their prime, or they still have more room for improvement. Their future is worth looking forward to, and the future of the Chinese team composed of them is also worth looking forward to.

Players from the "Star Project" can be found in many football clubs across the European continent, and some are even members of Lazio's fierce rivals.
The "Star Project" was established by Chang Sheng alone, so it seems that Chang Sheng spent countless energy and cultivated many opponents for himself. This is really stupid.
But Chang Sheng has never thought about this problem. In his opinion, there are Chinese players all over the European continent, and Chinese football has benefited from this. Chinese fans also have more expectations on every European football match day. These players can bring them
Go to joy and hope, that will be more satisfying than winning the championship yourself.
He has won enough championships and is the most decorated head coach in the history of world football.
Then he should also give back to society.
He should stand on a higher ground and think about Chinese football.
So he didn't regret what he did.
Of course, no one will know about this, and no one will ever know.
No one knows that so many Chinese players active in European football can only appear on this stage because of their consistent wins.
He is like the meritorious deeds of two bombs and one satellite, destined to remain anonymous and contribute silently for the rest of his life.
But for Chinese football and those lovely Chinese fans, he has no regrets.
※※※
Chen Yingxiong is not a player from the "Star Project", but he has received training at the Lazio Football School, so strictly speaking, he also has a connection with Chang Sheng.
That he benefited from that winning package is undisputed.
Moreover, the Lazio Football School is different from the "Star Project". This is something that can be seen in the light.
After Chen Yingxiong became famous, reporters dug up all his records. Naturally, they knew that he had trained at the Lazio Football School for three years.
But he was fired because of a fight.
Later he went to Russia and recommended himself.
And then...then he was chosen.
However, Chen Yingxiong himself may not be willing to admit that he benefited from Chang Sheng's plan.
Because in his mind, Lazio Football School has been classified as a rival.
He has always been bitter about his dismissal.
So he has never been willing to admit that he was a student of Lazio Football School, even if he was only once.
Is he grateful to Chang Sheng?
Don't be ridiculous, maybe he only has hatred for Chang Sheng?
Before Lazio's home game against Naples, Chen Yingxiong personally proved this point.
This was the first time that Chen Yingxiong played against Chang Sheng, so many Chinese media went to interview Chen Yingxiong. During the interview, they mentioned the relationship between Chen Yingxiong and Chang Sheng.
The specific question is this: "You have trained at the Lazio Football School for three years, and it was there that you laid the foundation for your success. Would you now be grateful for the three years you spent there..."
Before he finished asking the question, he was interrupted by Chen Yingxiong. He stared at the reporter: "Thank you? Why should I thank you? Didn't I pay tuition for training there? The annual tuition of 30,000 yuan is enough for
Is it a sum of money that ordinary people can take out casually? I pay and they train me. This is a very fair deal. I don’t owe my tuition fees, so I don’t need to thank them. If I don’t
If I pay the money, do you think they will let me go to school?"
The reporter was left speechless by the rhetorical question.
However, everyone confirmed one thing from Chen Yingxiong's answer - Chen Yingxiong does not have a good impression of Lazio...
So will this emotion affect his performance tomorrow?
Will he transfer his hatred of the Lazio football school to the Lazio club and then go all out to defeat Lazio in tomorrow's game?
That’s a real attraction!

Chang Sheng did not respond to Chen Yingxiong's words.
First of all, although he is the principal of the Lazio Football School, he is only in name only, and other people are responsible for the specific affairs. Therefore, it would be too far-fetched to say that Chen Yingxiong is dissatisfied with the Lazio Football School because he is dissatisfied with his constant victory.
Secondly, Chang Sheng is the most successful figure in Chinese football in Europe. He has a high status and is Chen Yingxiong's predecessor. There is no need for him to be as familiar as a child who is not yet twenty years old.
If you have anything to say, leave it to the court.
So the hype didn't take off at all.

Lazio's home game against Naples is a game that is broadcast live all over the world. This game is also the highlight of this round of the league.
Lots to see.
First of all, there is naturally a direct dialogue between the second and third leagues, which determines the league rankings of both sides, and will even affect Juventus's league rankings. Because Juventus's game is ahead, the game between Lazio and Naples is scheduled
In the last scene, it was precisely for this reason.
Secondly, it is naturally a competition between several Chinese people.
In addition to Chen Yingxiong and Chang Sheng, there is also Ji Ming.
Ji Ming was once considered to be the core of Chinese football in the next ten years and the player with the most superstar qualifications in Chinese football.
Now Chen Yingxiong has emerged, so who is the superstar of Chinese football? This is a direct conversation and deserves careful attention.
With so many gimmicks put together, this game naturally attracted much attention.
More than 30 Chinese media outlets came to cover the game live. China's national television station CCTV also broadcast the game live. It also started showing trailers on TV two weeks before the game.
This game is advertised.
One hour before the game, I entered the live broadcast. This kind of treatment is almost equivalent to the Champions League final.
In China, tens of millions of Chinese fans are waiting in front of televisions and computers, preparing to watch this game.
The Italian Football Association also fully considered the response from Asia, especially the Chinese market, and arranged the game in the afternoon of local time, which is 9:30 pm Beijing time, which is the prime time.
It is very convenient for Chinese fans to watch football, and they don’t have to stay up late. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
