Greenery on the back

Chapter 36 "Thousand Talents Program"

A fat man walked in from the door of the fitness room. He was a tall man of 1 meters with a very simple face. He was the head coach Fatty Dong.

"Hey, you're here so soon." Fatty Dong patted Yue Feng who was stunned in place, glanced at Tang Chuan, and asked with a smile, "Why did you come together? Could it be that you two are legendary good friends?" Bar?"

"Coach, don't you want me to come?" Tang Chuan was a little embarrassed. Fatty Dong only gave Yue Feng the key card for the gym.

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay. I just applied to the school. Such a good place should be used by everyone." Fatty Dong squinted his eyes and patted Tang Chuan lightly.

"This place was originally only used by the faculty and football planners, but if our team wants to achieve results, we can't do without training our bodies. The utilization rate of this gym is too low. I told the vice principal that we have to punish our players. The teams are all open."

"Really? That's really great!" Tang Chuan said happily.

"Don't be too happy, let me ask you, do you know how to use these equipment?" Dong Fatty's tone became serious.

"Yes, yes!" Tang Chuan sat on the "leg flexion and extension trainer" with a proud face, and lifted his legs upwards vigorously.

Fatty Dong shook his head when he saw this, "Slow down!" He stretched out his hand and pushed Tang Chuan's knee back, and continued: "These equipment must be used correctly in order to exert the maximum exercise effect. And you must also maintain a correct posture. , use the right force."

"The knees should be just stuck at the end of the seat, otherwise it is easy to damage the body." Fatty Dong asked Tang Chuan to stand up, sat on the chair by himself, stretched his legs into the machine, and after a little effort, he pulled the barrier pad Raise it high.

"It seems that someday I will ask Mr. Li to give you a special class on this topic." Fatty Dong smiled at Tang Chuan.

Yue Feng looked behind the seat and saw a thick stack of square iron blocks rising up following Fatty Dong's movements.Tang Chuan ran over to count and exclaimed, "Coach, you are too good!"

It turns out that this stack of iron blocks is the weight of the "leg flexion and extension trainer". The more iron blocks rise, the greater the strength on the legs.

It took Tang Chuan his life to lift the weight slightly, but Fatty Dong easily lifted the whole stack.

"Don't underestimate me. When I played football in Europe, my physical condition crushed many teammates." Fatty Dong pulled his leg out and smiled naively.

"No way?" Tang Chuan looked skeptical, "We Hua people are physically stronger than foreigners?"

"Aren't we Chinese people physically strong?" Yue Feng was puzzled when he heard Tang Chuan's words.

In his impression, although the martial arts of the Song Dynasty were far inferior to those of the Han and Tang Dynasties, there were many strong and strong soldiers in the Song army.The Khitans and Jurchens also had the upper hand in the cavalry. In terms of physical strength alone, they were no match for the elite Song army.

As for those deep-eyed and high-nosed Dashi and Fusu merchants, he had seen many in Bianliang, but he never felt how strong they were compared to the Song people.

"What nonsense are you talking about, why don't you have any sense of national pride? Our country has only been reformed for 50 years, and the West has developed for almost 300 years." Fatty Dong said a little dissatisfied.

"We Hua people's physical fitness is not inferior to foreigners in our bones. If we are worse than others, there are only two reasons: one is not eating well, and the other is not exercising well."

The words are not rough, although Fatty Dong's words are a bit vulgar, but Yue Feng and the two of them understood a lot of truth from it.

Fatty Dong patted his chest again and said, "You can laugh at me for not being good at the game, but my body is not bragging, and I was at the top among professional players back then."

Tang Chuan quickly said with a flattering smile: "How dare you, your skills are far beyond our reach. Our Chinese players have never joined a top European club since you."

Fatty Dong blushed when he said this, he didn't know if he was shy or felt ashamed.

In fact, he was not happy in that giant club, and he didn't achieve much.Some people even said that the big club signed him purely as a commercial act to attract Huaguo fans.

Fatty Dong sighed, and shifted his gaze to the two students, "I hope that in the future, you will surpass me in both football skills and physical strength, so that our Huaguo men's football team will have hope."

"Coach, you think highly of us too. I don't think our country will be able to produce players like you in ten or eight years." Tang Chuan shook his head.

Fatty Dong smiled slightly: "You can't say that, boy, there are many talented players among those planners."

The three words "planned child" always appear in Yue Feng's ears recently, but they don't know what "planned child" is.It was only at the beginning of school that I heard some superficial things from my classmates Han Zheng and Li Jie who were planning students.

"Is it a football special enrollment?" Tang Chuan asked.As the head coach of the team, Fatty Dong should know best what a "planned child" is.

Fatty Dong shook his head, and slowly explained: "Planned students are different from special recruits. By the way, there is a 'National Football Thousand Talents Program', have you heard of it?"

Yue and Tang looked at me and I looked at you, but they remained silent.

Seeing that the students didn’t know, Fatty Dong continued: “Nine years ago, the national football team coached by Yinhu Lippi failed miserably in the Asian Cup, and then did not enter the 2022 World Cup. We finally realized that the failure of the men’s football team is not the coach’s fault. Hiring world-class coaches won’t help much, the main thing is to rely on the youth training of the country.”

"Youth training?" Yue Feng whispered this new term he heard for the first time.

"It is to do a good job in the training and training of young players." Fatty Dong said: "Not long after that, the sports, education and other departments jointly launched a youth training project called the 'Football Thousand Talents Program' across the country."

"This plan is specifically to select 1000 students who meet the training conditions for special training every year in various football-characteristic primary schools across the country."

"What is the training method?" Yue Feng asked.

"The national football team was often criticized for two main aspects: one is that the basic skills are too poor, and the ball can be stopped 3 meters away. The other is that the player's quotient is too low and basically can't move." Dong Fatzi stretched out said two fingers.

"The poor basic skills are mainly related to the quality of the youth training coaches, and the low golf quotient is related to this." Fatty Dong pointed to his head again.

"Therefore, in the 'Thousand Talents Plan', the training of youth training coaches was specially emphasized. Teacher Li and the others were the first batch of youth training coaches to be trained. Only when the quality of the coaching team is improved, can we teach good players .”

Tang Chuan was puzzled after hearing this: "Isn't it good to directly use foreign youth training coaches? Why do you have to work so hard to train yourself?"
