Name: My father Yuan Mu

I have to say, this is sad. It's okay to use domestic coaches for other sports, but it really doesn't work for football. Yuan Zhihao is really afraid that these domestic coaches will teach these children badly, so he would rather spend a lot of money to hire foreign coaches than use domestic ones.

Anyway, the Football Association has enough funds. Since Yuan Zhihao took office as the chairman of the Football Association, a series of measures have seemed to give people hope again, so many companies have donated money to the Football Association. In fact, there were many such things in the past, but most of them were embezzled by those leaders who were just sitting in their positions and eating. Less than 10% was actually used for football development.

But Yuan Zhihao is different. He will use the amount of money you donate to me on football development. If it is not enough, he will apply for funds from his superiors. Together with the previous funds of the Football Association, it is more than enough.

Yuan Zhihao is very concerned about these children. In addition to the best coaches, he also has nutritionists, psychologists, rehabilitation therapists, medical technicians, etc., and they are trained completely according to the national team.

Yuan Zhihao has already made up his mind. These children will be trained in China for three years, and then sent abroad to experience the atmosphere of football powerhouses, and then recalled to play in China's China League One, China League Two, and even the Chinese Super League.

Of course, some of these 56 people will be eliminated, but he will be satisfied if only one-fourth of them remain in the end. The rest can be thrown into the stagnant water of Chinese football like catfish to stir up trouble.

But now everything is unknown. Whether these children can become successful depends on the next series of training and whether they can persevere. If they don’t have the determination, they can’t do this job.

As long as they can endure loneliness, they will be able to maintain prosperity in the future. Without today's hardships, how can they have luxury cars and beautiful women in the future?

Today is the first month since these children arrived at the base, which is also the day of the first team competition, so Yuan Zhihao came here specially to see the training results of these children.

Director Sun, the person in charge of the training base, and the head coach of these children were accompanying Yuan Zhihao.

In order to strengthen communication with the children, Yuan Zhihao screened carefully and finally selected a coaching team that spoke Chinese fairly well. As for the other coaching teams, a small number of them were hired by Yuan Zhihao to coach the women's and men's football teams, and the rest were paid and dismissed.

After all, these children are still young. Although Yuan Zhihao usually trains them to learn a few foreign languages, they cannot be learned overnight. It will be very troublesome for a coach to not speak the language, because no matter how much you say, it will be useless if the children cannot understand.

Even if there is a translator, it is difficult for the translator to translate the coach's true meaning to the children, so Chinese is very necessary.

"Secretary Yuan, do you think these kids are okay? Let me tell you, they work really hard. They get up at four or five in the morning, do a three-kilometer warm-up, have breakfast, and then start training. After lunch, they rest for an hour and a half, continue training in the afternoon, and have another evening training after dinner."

"Each of these kids is incredibly hardworking. Despite such intense training, no one ever complains about being tired. Look at that short guy dribbling the ball. He's a winger in the Men's A group, sixteen years old, and his name is Conliffe."

"This kid runs with such joy. In his previous physical test, he ran the 100 meters in 10.88 seconds! And he has a high basketball IQ. He kicks the ball accurately and always finds good offensive opportunities."

Director Sun pointed at the children on the field and introduced them to Yuan Zhihao with a smile on his face.

Yuan Zhihao nodded slowly. He also noticed that Kang Lifu was indeed a very talented child.

"Coach Leon, are the boys' groups A and B evenly matched or separated?" Yuan Zhihao then turned to look at the head coach next to him. He was a Hanscat man, 59 years old, a former member of the Hanscat national team, and had led them to the World Cup. His name was Leon Schmidt. (P.S. I made that up, don't believe it.)

"Of course it's balanced. I've only been coaching them for a month, so their abilities haven't been fully explored yet, but I already have a rough idea of their physical fitness. I'll need another two months to get a feel for them. By then, I'll completely divide them into two groups, A and B. Group A will naturally be the stronger group, while Group B will be slightly weaker."

"Of course, you can also think of it as one group being the main players and one group being the substitutes. This will be beneficial for my next training plan. After all, everyone's abilities are different. I will develop a detailed training plan for each of them based on their individual circumstances."

Coach Leon was holding a notebook in his hand. While talking to Yuan Zhihao, he kept his eyes on the field and wrote something down in the notebook.

Yuan Zhihao didn't care about his impolite behavior at all. He needed people who could get things done. He didn't need these people to flatter him; such people would naturally appear.

Moreover, Yuan Zhihao has been flattered enough over the years, and he is a little tired of it. He likes people who do things quickly and it makes him feel comfortable.

Yuan Zhihao also knew that it was impossible to divide these children evenly into two teams. Just as Coach Leon said, people are different. If they are too balanced, it will inevitably affect the development of the stronger children and slow down their pace.

"Very good, Coach Leon, I really like your style and hope you can keep it up. I'm leaving these kids in your care and you must train them well.

"Oh! Mr. Yuan! Please trust my professional ethics. I'm not like those coaches in your country. Since I've taken your money, I will naturally give it my all. This is my bottom line."

Yuan Zhihao smiled.

"Coach Leon, please tell me the truth, what are the strengths of these kids?"

Hearing this, Coach Leon stopped writing and turned to look at Yuan Zhihao.

"Well, it's okay, but you can see that they play without any method. They probably haven't received any systematic training. However, they have good physical fitness and a good feel for the ball. These are the basic qualities of a good football player."

"Please believe me, I will show you the initial results in half a year. These children are very hardworking and serious. I like them very much."

Yuan Zhihao was even more satisfied. This proved that his previous money was not wasted, and the kids brought back by the coaching team were indeed very good.

"Coach Leon, how are the girls?"

"Oh! Mr. Yuan! I have to say, these girls are also very good and work very hard, even harder than those boys. I really can't imagine what motivates them to work so hard!"
