After spending the very embarrassing Year of the Monkey, Chinese football entered the Year of the Rooster in 2005. They still rolled in the sea of ​​suffering and saw two faint lights. Although they were not bright enough, they were enough to illuminate the way forward in the chaotic state.

One is the youth storm that the national youth team has set off on the stage of the World Youth Championship, and the other is the more rapid "Yuchai Tornado" in the Chinese Super League.

In the National Olympic Team, the national football team fell into a slump last year, the only key key events for the Football Association this year is the 08 Star Plan. The national youth team selected by the plan will participate in the Dutch World Youth Championship in June, which has become the most important event in this year without major competitions.

The 85 national youths lived up to expectations and started cheating in the group stage, beating European giants such as Turkey and Ukraine. They scored 9 points and scored 9 points to the highest moment of Chinese football and also convincedly advanced to the knockout round as the first in the group.

I regretfully lost to Germany in the 1/8 final, but the four games of the National Youth League were also remarkable, showing the spirit of the young people and giving the Chinese people a face.

The players such as Feng Xiaoting, Chen Tao, Lu Lin, etc. who performed well in this team are all members of the team who went to Zagreb to participate in the invitational tournament five years ago. Through the years of hardships in the league, they have truly grown into a star and fulfilled their solemn oath.

Feng Xiaoting was named the "Top Ten Hope Stars" of the competition with Messi, Mikel, Taiwo and others. Captain Feng, who became famous at the young age, has also become the most famous representative player of the 85 generation of Chinese players.

Also a member of the invitational tournament, Li Weizhen was selected for the national youth team with his outstanding performance in the league and scored a goal in the knockout match against Germany, which can be regarded as fulfilling his promise to win glory for the country when he was a teenager.

With the huge influence of the two veterans Hubner and Baggio last year, Yuchai, a new Chinese League One team, miraculously appeared on this year's Chinese Super League.

Bai Huijun, the head of the team, knew that the magic of last year could not be reproduced, and the competitive pressure of the Chinese Super League was unimaginable. The newly promoted Yuchai could only put himself in the lowest position and fought for relegation since the first game. This is a way of life.

He wanted to follow last year and renew his contract with two veterans, Lao Hu and Baggio, again, but the sales of cigars and red wine promised by China last year did not meet psychological expectations, so the two did not agree to renew the contract. After the season ended, he patted his butt and went to Guangzhou for a walk, and then flew back to China.

After returning to China, Lao Hu also wrote what he saw and heard in Yucheng for a year into his book "Oriental Talk", in which he did not talk about his favorite cigar;

Instead, we talked about the unique eating habits of the locals. People here not only ate the internal organs of cows, but also ate the meat of dogs.

After the publication, this book also had good sales, which made him a small profit and was one of the gains of his trip to China.

Although he has not been relegated this season in the Chinese Super League, Bai Huijun, who has suffered the sweetness, still wants to continue the good harvest of last season. Choosing a powerful foreign player has become his important goal.

Finally, through the London Economic Company, Dino Baggio was successfully contacted by the "destroyed" in Serie A.D., and successfully loaned the 34-year-old veteran for a season for a low price of 500,000 euros.

As D-Ba grew older and his competitive level continued to decline, he had been spending his five years on loans to Lazio. Since he ended his loan at Ancona in July last year and returned to Lazio, no team has come to ask about him again. Now the Blue Eagles are not favored. He wasted more than half a year without anyone's concern.

Lazio was also feeling more and more unhappy about this guy who was having a good meal, so when he heard that a team from China was interested in him at the beginning of this year, he basically agreed to the other party's request without thinking. This shows the rush to sell.

At first they suggested that the Chinese side add a little more price and just turn the annoying ghost away. The Chinese club that is interested should be a small club. They are short of money and can only afford 500,000 euros of funds, but they dare to choose to rent.

The deal was not too complicated, and the final negotiations were soon reached. D-Bar came to the club to register before the Spring Festival.

Compared with the famous Baggio last year, this year's Baggio is much smaller, and many domestic fans do not know that there is such a person.

But to be fair, as D-Ba, who has both offense and defense, has now become more of a midfielder as his condition declines. His role in this young Yuchai is more important than last year's Baggio.

After last year's running-in, Yuchai has formed the characteristics of rapid counterattack and strong impact. The team is mainly young players and is aggressive, but it is also a little frizzy and prone to fall off at critical moments. The appearance of D-B in the middle and backcourt stabilizes the overall team like a Dinghai Shen Needle.

After the fluctuations in the first half of the season, Yuchai stabilized his position during the tired period of the second half of the season and won several tough battles. He was confident that he did not vomit out the score he had taken;

In the end, Yuchai, who had 8 wins, 9 draws and 11 losses, scored 33 points, ranking 7th in the league, which was much more ideal than the top ten goals set by the team at the beginning of the season, and laid a foundation for confidence in dealing with the Chinese Super League that will return to normal next season.

This year's Chinese Super League canceled the relegation, which also made full preparations for all provinces to devote themselves to this year's National Tenth Games football match.

This year's National Games football competition is no longer allowed to participate in overage players, all of whom are born after January 1, 1985.

The Guangxi team, which won the gold medal in the district football event two years ago, sent a team that claimed to be "the strongest in the past decade" to strive for the National Games medal.

The Yuchai U20 players led by Li Weizhen played an important role in the team. This time, six years later, they joined hands again. Ouyang Ohai, Lin Qiu, Jing Yizhou and other teammates of the Guangxi Youth Team again staged the same plot of winning the third place in the Qihang Cup National Championship, which made Guangxi National Games head coach Mo Huaqiang feel mixed emotions.

As the personal creator of the "Yuchai Myth", Bai Huijun's team has gained power in the past two or three years, which is inseparable from his unique vision and brilliant business methods;

And this year, another project with great ambitions and far-sighted vision was completed, which immediately pushed the youngest general manager of the 40-year-old Chinese Super League to the focus of attention of the people across the country. Looking back at the team's growth process, it is actually the young man's path to becoming a god. It makes people sigh: This young man really dares to think and dares to do it even more!

That is, with the completion of the professional stadium, the Southern Ball Club, Yuchai, has an international perspective like its parent company.

You should know that professional football stadiums are currently a new thing in China with their ultra-low cost-effectiveness and extremely high construction and maintenance costs. Only three developed cities including Shanghai, Tianjin, and Chengdu have been built.

The newly built home electromechanical stadium of Yuchai team is the first professional football field in South China and the fourth in the country. The super-large pattern that Bai Huijun, who has contributed to this feat, is indeed extraordinary.

The electromechanical stadium covers an area of ​​about 60,000 square meters, with a total construction area of ​​more than 10,000 square meters. The total design can accommodate 25,000 spectators. Considering the current number of two or three thousand spectators, based on the principles of cost saving and effective management, the initial number of seats is only 11,000.

The electromechanical stadium is not a single stadium construction, but a key promotion project based on the municipal government's creation of new landmarks and new living environments. The total land is more than 500 acres, including a professional football field and an affiliated training base, a football theme park, and a commercial city;

The total investment amount exceeds 750 million yuan. The first phase has completed the construction of the football field and passed the acceptance in the middle of the year. It has been put into use in the second half of the Chinese Super League this season.

The municipal investment company of the municipal government is responsible for financing and construction, and after acceptance, it is handed over to the club for management. The ownership of the stadium belongs to the government, and the team is the user and is responsible for daily use and maintenance.

In this way, the municipal government can set the stage first and have the loud sign of "the first professional football stadium in South China". At the same time, it also finds a management party for the normal use and maintenance of the stadium, which is conducive to long-term and healthy development;

For the club, the government has built the nest, so even though it is a golden phoenix, it is a sky-high expense for maintenance of the stadium every year, it saves at least 4.5 billion yuan in construction costs and realizes the purpose of moving in with your bag, which is also a good thing.

The win-win situation after the stadium is built is also reflected in that it not only solves the club's hardware facilities and meets the strict requirements of the Chinese Super League for the team's venue;

At the same time, we also prepared the main venue for the opening and closing ceremonies for the 11th Autonomous Region Games held in the city two years later. It is really a killing two birds with one stone.

The electromechanical stadium is located on the edge of the eastern suburbs of the city on the extension line at the east end of Renmin Road, east-west main road of the city. It belongs to the Yudong area and is the future development direction of Yucheng City. It will usher in a great development opportunity in the next ten years;

The commercial housing reserved within a 100-meter range of the stadium exceeds 20,000 households, with a peak population of more than 50,000 people. This is already the permanent population of a small town, and it has played a great role in promoting team culture, commercial operations, ticket sales, etc.

Bai Huijun saw a long time. His ambition was no longer limited to satisfying his current maturity, but aimed at the sea of ​​flowers and poetry in the distance, running towards his dream of a century-old shop!
