Chapter 83 Opinion Essay: Football, the biggest secret is that the master is among the people
I have nothing to do today. When I was free, I suddenly thought of some feelings. By the way, I wrote this article to share with you some insights related to this book.

Now that the two volumes are finished, Zhou Tiancheng has transformed from a college player to the first team of Schalke, and what follows is the beginning of his legendary journey.

From a college player to a Schalke first-team player, Zhou Tiancheng has completed a huge identity leap and transformation. Probably only novels can have such a plot. In reality, except for Vardy’s transformation from the seventh-level amateur league to a Premier League superstar, It's almost impossible, I dare not even think about it.

But this is the most important theme I want to express in this book. I wrote a sentence on the title page of my work: In football, the biggest secret is that the best players are among the people.When writing this sentence, as a Chinese fan, I can't help thinking of Chinese football and the national team.

Although it will touch the sensitive nerves of some people, as a Chinese fan, I have enough scolding, I feel cool, 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 have no shortage of talents. The Guardian reported in 2013 that there are [-] Messis hidden among Chinese people.I have no doubts about this.Because children from XJ, Sichuan, and Guangdong are really talented in football. Southern football used to be the most important technical school in Chinese football, and it is possible to cultivate players like Messi.

But the most important question is, how are they known to the public?
If they can all be dug out, seven thousand Messis, I'll wipe it!Can the World Cup champion be closed?

But obviously this is unrealistic, and we are not utopians, so there is another way. Those football seedlings scattered overseas can always be won, right?

For example, Hou Yongyong, a talented teenager of Norwegian Chinese origin a few years ago, has been reported in the past two years that Li Tenglong, who made his debut in the Russian Super League, has now joined the AC Milan echelon.There are not too many people like this.They have the skills and ability, and they don't have the bad habits left over from the domestic youth training, so they can come when they are called, but the premise is that they are willing to give them a chance.

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