This chapter seems to be an introduction to the new world, similar to the setting instructions, but I describe everything from Hu Lai's perspective.

I hope you don’t think it’s watery.

Because the things mentioned in this chapter are actually the reasons why I want to write an imaginary football world:

Having written football novels for seventeen years and being a Chinese fan for nearly thirty years, I actually have a lot to say about football, especially Chinese football, and I have also had some assumptions that sound arrogant and do not know the bounds of heaven and earth.

I can post these words on Weibo, my circle of friends, or even public accounts.

But as an online novel writer, I think writing these words into an online novel is probably the best way for me.

I mentioned my thoughts on football and education in "Heart of a Champion". During the 2018 World Cup, I was invited by the publisher of "Heart of a Champion" to write an article about the educational attributes of football.

Put it in my official account.

In "Green Green", I expressed some of my thoughts through Zhao Ju. What should I do with those who have started to pursue the path of professional football since childhood, but did not get out in the end? Who is responsible for their lost teenagers? Who is responsible for them?

Responsible for their future?

How many parents are willing to send their children to professional football and gamble on such an unclear future?

So can campus football be a solution to parents’ concerns?

Now I am a married man, and my son is seven and a half years old and in elementary school. Last semester, my wife and I traveled to many places to learn about some things about our children’s football classes.

To be honest, my child has no talent, and I don’t expect him to take the path of professional football. But I still want to send him to learn to play football. I just hope that I can make him fall in love with football and learn something from football.

At the very least, he can do some physical exercise to relieve him a little from the life of staying at home and doing homework every day.

I believe that many parents who send their children to participate in various football interest classes have this idea. They may not really want their children to become professional players in the future, but they just want to find an opportunity for their children to play sports and allow their children to pass

This is the way to fall in love with football.

This is still under the premise that we do not have a systematic unified campus football league.

What if there is?

When my son was still very young, I once had a fantasy. I imagined that after he went to school, he joined the school's football team and played games with the team every week. I would watch his games from the stands, cheer him on, and play well.

I like to praise him, and I have a good chat with him on the way home if he doesn't play well. If he loses the game, I comfort him and encourage him.

As he grows up, memories related to football will become a very important part. The campus football league will become the common memory of their generation, that is, their youth.

And I will be particularly pleased that the youth I have not experienced can be realized in my children.

But unfortunately, the campus football environment in our country does not support such a dream of mine.

So I wrote it in a book, a world where I, the author, have the final say. I want to describe such a national unified event, I want to describe the football youth shared by such a group of teenagers, and their transition from campus to career.

experience.

Parents in this world don’t have to worry about their children giving up their studies and taking the one-plank bridge of professional football. If their children are really talented, they will naturally attract the interest of professional teams through events such as national competitions. Do you want to go there?

It is up to the children and parents to decide together.

If they have average talent or do not have this ambition, they can still enjoy football on campus without giving up their studies. They will continue to go to school, take the college entrance examination, and eventually enter university and embark on another life path.

Or if you participate in the same national college football league in college, if you perform well, you will also have the opportunity to enter professional football.

When they become adults, they will be grateful for everything they experienced on the high school football team, which taught them to face setbacks, work as a team, fight side by side with their teammates, celebrate victories, and face failures.

This will become a valuable asset in their lives.

Only when the worries of students and parents are solved can football regain its vitality in this populous country, and we will have a large football population.

Considering the size of China's population, such a football population is very large, terrifyingly large.

This huge football population will become the cornerstone and soil of the upper-level football building. This is true in any football power.

Without a sufficient football population, there will be no excellent football atmosphere and football level. Without a sufficient football population, there will be no strong national team and no flourishing professional league.

But the most important thing is that without the football population, there would be no football sport, and football would become a water without a source and a tree without roots.

For me, imagining such a campus football environment is also my little suggestion, or idea, on how to improve the level of Chinese football.

I know this is a bit idealistic, but I am just a football novel writer and not the chairman of the Football Association, so it is not up to me to make my ideals come true. Let me finish my dream first.

Just like what I said from Hu Lai's perspective, what a beautiful new world this is.

I hope that in reality, one day in the future, we can also have such a beautiful new world.
