People’s Daily Online, Kuaishou, Meituan, JD.com, Xiaomi and other five Internet companies made speeches at the meeting, saying that they must strengthen their confidence and determination, seize development opportunities, give play to their innovation advantages, improve quality and efficiency in deepening reform, and actively build first-class enterprises. Make due contributions to promoting the construction of a network power, and put forward opinions and suggestions based on the actual situation of enterprises. Excerpts from the speech are as follows.

Ye Zhenzhen (Party Secretary, Chairperson, President of People’s Daily Online):

People’s Daily Online, as the "online People’s Daily", has always regarded publicizing and explaining the Supreme Leader’s thought on socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era as its top political task, focusing on the main business of content, continuously planning and launching original products, and continuously injecting surging positive energy into the Internet.

People’s Daily Online undertakes the responsibility and mission of connecting the hearts of the party and the hearts of the people. In 2021, in the practice of "I do practical things for the masses", People’s Daily Online’s "leadership message board" widely solicited people’s "urgent and difficult" problems, and more than 800,000 demands were responded to and resolved throughout the year. The cumulative number of users of People’s Daily Online’s PC side, client side, mobile phone People’s Daily Online, and new media accounts has exceeded 733 million. The self-built "content platform" is distributed through seven major brand mobile phones, and the total number of users exceeds 1 billion. People’s Daily Online has newly launched 3 foreign language versions including Italian, and so far there are 12 foreign language versions. At the same time, adhere to innovation-driven, develop content technology, build a "content risk control brain", and provide content security services for many Internet platforms.

Our country’s digital economy is in the ascendant. Strengthening supervision, breaking monopoly, and protecting privacy are not only important measures to promote the healthy and sustainable development of Internet enterprises, but also fully reflect the policy determination to maintain a good ecology and ensure long-term development. In the new year, People’s Daily Online will further enhance its sense of responsibility and mission. It will play a key role in leading, connecting, and standard setting in the key "ecological niche" of the new socialized division of labor in the content industry. It will further accelerate the deep integration and development of media. It will become a leading enterprise in content technology and a new type of mainstream media with strong influence and competitiveness. Strive to make great achievements in financial media reporting breakthroughs and career innovation and development.

In the new stage of development, it is recommended that the relevant central ministries and commissions formulate classified guidance and classified support policies for the development of party media and Internet enterprises, encourage the industry to work together to develop the Internet and information industry, and jointly promote the construction of a powerful network country.

Yuanxi Yang (Kuaishou co-founder and chairperson of the Content Security Committee):

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the party and the country have attached great importance to the development of the Internet and created a good environment for entrepreneurship and business. Riding the east wind of the times, Kuaishou adheres to the original intention of equality and universal benefit and accelerates the pace of development. At present, Kuaishou serves more than 300 million users every day and strives to create greater social value.

Kuaishou integrates mainstream value into algorithm technology, so that positive energy and high-quality content can accurately reach users and "fly into the homes of ordinary people". Make good use of live broadcast technology to create a new business format for e-commerce, directly connect demand and supply, and release more consumption potential. In the first three quarters of 2021, Kuaishou’s total e-commerce transactions exceeded 400 billion, effectively driving the digital transformation of the real economy. Launched the "Happy Rural Leader Program" to open up a new and efficient path for agricultural products to go up and industrial products to go down, and cumulatively drive millions of people to increase their income. From January to October 2021, more than 420 million agricultural product orders were sent from rural areas to all parts of the country through Kuaishou. Kuaishou attaches great importance to technological innovation, through the understanding of interactive data, to achieve accurate connection between people and content, people and people, empowering the upstream and downstream of the industry, driving the coordinated development of related industries, and extending from consumer Internet to industrial Internet.

The General Secretary of the Supreme Leader attaches great importance to the development of private enterprises and the digital economy, and has repeatedly emphasized adhering to the "two unswerving" and constantly strengthening, improving and expanding our country’s digital economy, which not only injected strong confidence and motivation into the market, but also allowed us to take a reassuring heart and seek development with peace of mind. I believe that under the strong leadership of the party and the government, with the support and guidance of the competent departments, and with the joint cooperation of the industry, Kuaishou will also increase technological investment, strive to build hard core technology, and make new and greater contributions to promoting industrial optimization and upgrading and empowering the real economy.

Mu Rongjun (co-founder of Meituan):

2021 is a year in which Meituan has achieved new development in the standard, contributing to the high-quality development of the life service industry.

Meituan earnestly studied a series of policy requirements on promoting the healthy development of platform economic norms, established committees on company-level content ecology, data security, algorithm governance, privacy compliance, etc., strengthened compliance governance, and did everything possible to promote the healthy development of business. From the first to the third quarter of 2021, the operating income was 129.60 billion yuan, exceeding the level of the whole year in 2020; the annual transaction user 670 million, an increase of 40.1% year-on-year; the number of active merchants 8.30 million, an increase of 28.2% year-on-year. The annual R & D investment exceeded 10 billion, and the company applied for 7,426 invention patents, mainly in the fields of artificial intelligence and unmanned distribution. In terms of fulfilling social responsibility, Meituan absorbed more than 30,000 people in social employment in 2021, and 6,925 fresh students. The role of takeaway riders as a flexible employment reservoir is further revealed. Since 2020, 110 ambulances have been donated to fight the epidemic, and nearly 200 playgrounds have been donated by joint merchants in poverty reduction areas.

Facing the new stage of China’s economic development, Meituan consciously obeys and serves the overall situation of economic and social development, adjusts the strategy to "retail + technology", and accelerates the pace of transformation and development. Meituan will also continue to strengthen technological innovation, improve the level of operation and management, and further play the active role of platform enterprises in six guarantees and six stability.

Regarding the healthy and standardized development of platform enterprises, it is recommended to improve supporting policies to help the development of new business models and encourage enterprises to innovate in science and technology, support enterprises to participate in major national science and technology special projects or action plans, and play a greater role in promoting the core competitiveness of the Internet industry.

Xu Lei (President of JD.com Group):

In 2021, JD.com will provide new growth drivers for more industries and create greater value for society as it continues to grow steadily.

JD.com adheres to the concept of "compliance is development", builds a "four security" compliance system, and maintains steady growth in its business. Revenue in the first three quarters was 675.50 billion yuan, an increase of more than 25% year-on-year. JD.com Logistics is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, and the number of employees is growing steadily. This year, it will recruit more than 20,000 college graduates. Continue to increase logistics infrastructure building, the logistics network covers all districts and counties, and promotes "24-hour delivery of thousands of counties and towns" to enhance rural service capabilities in counties. Vigorously build cross-border logistics and overseas warehouse networks, and actively integrate into the new development pattern of "double cycle". Poverty alleviation work is fully shifted to helping rural revitalization and common prosperity, and the implementation of the "Penfu Plan" will drive rural areas to achieve 1 trillion output value within three years. Continuously increase investment in technology research and development. Last year, JD.com published more than 200 papers in top international academic conferences, won more than 60 awards in authoritative competitions at home and abroad, and created many "first" contributions in the fields of artificial intelligence, intelligent supply chain, intelligent retail, and intelligent logistics.

In the future, JD.com will strengthen compliance capacity building, adhere to stable employment, stable supply and stable development. It is hoped that the competent authorities will support enterprises to carry out key core technology innovation, participate in national informatization construction, guide enterprises to carry out investment and financing and mergers and acquisitions, and promote healthy and sustainable development.

Wang Xiang (President of Xiaomi Group):

Xiaomi is a consumer electronics and intelligent manufacturing company with smartphones, smart hardware and IoT platforms as the core. It has maintained rapid and steady growth in the past 11 years. From its establishment in 2010, to 2021, the annual revenue is about 320 billion yuan, the output value is 177.60 billion yuan, and the world’s top 500 ranks 338th. Xiaomi’s success, on the one hand, is to adhere to the technology to establish a business and provide the most cost-effective products for global users. On the other hand, it also conforms to the rise of the mobile Internet industry and actively participates in it. While popularizing smart hardware devices for users, it has gained dividends from the development of the Internet industry.

In recent years, a series of laws and regulations, such as the Cyber Security Law, the Data Security Law, and the Personal Information Protection Law, have been introduced one after another. The state’s efforts to rectify network chaos have been continuously strengthened, the development of the industry has become more orderly and compliant, and the user experience and sense of security have been improved. We believe that our country’s Internet industry will continue to maintain rapid development, providing the country with a large amount of tax revenue, solving a large number of jobs, and improving the efficiency and level of social operation. We are well aware of the importance of mastering core technologies and increasing R & D investment. Recently, we have proposed a higher R & D investment plan again. The R & D investment in the next five years will be 100 billion yuan, and Xiaomi will give full play to its own advantages, firmly lay out its business and resources from the industrial development level, and continue to grow and strengthen the enterprise to ensure its ability to become a pioneering force in the construction of the new era.

It is recommended to improve relevant laws and regulations, fundamentally eliminate the gray area of Android mobile application distribution, and prevent gambling and telecommunications fraud apps from inducing users to install and infringing on their rights and interests through third-party channels.

Andy Lau male two changed five times fans angry "The Great Wall" propaganda: do not know

Poster


  1905 movie network news Lu Han and Jing Boran’s "male lead" rip-off battle is still inconclusive, and another king-level superstar has also been caught in the rankings controversy. Four days ago, Zhang Yimou’s highly anticipated new work "The Great Wall" was announced and released, causing a huge sensation. However, fans of Andy Lau, one of the lead actors, have found that Andy, who has been mentioned by the film’s side with male lead Matt Damon on various occasions, not only has the number of shots in the trailer been significantly less than that of the other party, but also only ranks fifth in the press release.

Andy Lau fans cite evidence of inconsistent Great Wall rankings

  The once-expected male number two has suddenly become a five-time supporting role, which is completely unacceptable to Andy Lau’s fans. So they published a long article on the Internet and angrily tore up the film, demanding that "The Great Wall" be fair to Andy Lau. Fans pointed out that Andy Lau’s name had been ranked second in the cast list before the record was set, and previous publicity had always featured Zhang Yimou’s director Andy Lau as a selling point. Now that Andy Lau has moved down three places, this inconsistent behavior of the film is a malicious consumption of Andy Lau’s fame, which is not only unequal and disrespectful to him, but also violates the rules of the industry.

"The Great Wall" stills

  In response to Andy Lau’s fans’ doubts about "The Great Wall", 1905 Film Network also called the film’s promoters for the first time. The other party said that they could not give a clear response to the change in Andy Lau’s ranking during the film’s promotion process, because they did not know the specific contents of the contract signed by the actors and the film.

The following is the full text of "The Great Wall of the Movie Please Give Andy Lau Justice" published by "Andy Lau Bar Official Weibo":

  On July 28, 2016, that is, this Thursday, the movie "The Great Wall" announced the finalization of the file and the release of the first trailer. As fans of Andy Lau, we were very happy to look forward to it, but the trailers and official rankings of the domestic movie "The Great Wall" made many fans feel disappointed and even chilled. Whether it is the trailer or the ranking, it is very disrespectful to Mr. Lau himself and his fan group, which makes the majority of Chinese fans particularly unacceptable and intolerant. Baidu Andy Lau (who has nothing to do with Andy Lau’s official) clarified the original reason for this matter, and expressed some attitudes towards the matter:

  One: Before setting the file, whether it is domestic media and mainstream websites or extranet, in the news related to the movie "The Great Wall", Andy Lau’s ranking has always been second only to Matt Damon. From before the start of filming to the end of the movie, this ranking has been basically unchanged. However, after the movie was officially set, Mr. Lau’s ranking was moved backward by three places. Such inconsistent behavior by the filmmaker is really against industry rules.

  Two: Since the film was approved, it has been mainly directed by Zhang Yimou, starring Andy Lau, and traditional Chinese historical themes. The entire preparation stage, shooting stage, and post-processing stage are all based on Mr. Lau as one of the main selling points of the Great Wall. The publicity is also that the two generations of Liu Jianming have joined forces to create a box office myth. However, the overseas trailer that broke out on the day of the filing changed Andy Lau to a special appearance. The early consumption of Andy Lau’s popularity created momentum for the film. When the early promotion of the film is completed and the final film is completed, the official will decisively change the style from the previous starring role to a special performance, or rank fifth.

  Three: As a veteran artist in the Chinese language circle, Andy Lau’s status is definitely a superstar. Andy Lau doesn’t care about the ranking theory, but we Chinese fans will not be bullied by the producers. Once again, we declare that Baidu Andy Lau’s voice, do not compete for rankings, do not tear up stars for arguments, do not comment on movies, do not resist, and do not be led by bad guys. Three views are positive, speak rationally, and always pay attention to the image of Chinese fans.

  From the early stage of large-scale consumption sacrificing Andy Lau’s fame to promote "The Great Wall" as a movie, to the later stage of the film’s attitude change and the disdain for Andy Lau in trailers and posters, this is a great inequality and disrespect for Andy Lau. The film’s attitude of changing orders and crossing rivers and bridges is really unbearable.

  We are not just focused on his career, and feel that his low ranking makes fans lose face. The obvious disrespect of the film side is the real reason for the anger of many fans. We are not here to compete for rankings, but to fight for breath. Andy Lau is our bottom line. As long as this bottom line is touched, Chinese fans will resolutely stand up to safeguard his interests.

  Finally, I hope the film can give Andy Lau and his fans a clear statement on the above issues, and I also hope that the film can correct its attitude and give Mr. Lau the respect he deserves. @Movie Great Wall @LeTV Pictures @LeTV Pictures Zhang Zhao

How the food delivery service industry entered the era of "standardization"

  Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, September 14: How the takeaway delivery service industry has entered the era of "standardization"

  Xinhua News Agency reporters Wang Feng, Cao Yiming, Shao Kun

  At present, the food delivery service market is developing rapidly, but on the other hand, the phenomenon of food delivery timeout, incomplete food, and uneven quality of food delivery personnel are also constantly exposed. Experts say that to solve the many problems existing in the food delivery industry, it is necessary to effectively manage and standardize all aspects of food delivery, so that it can truly enter the era of "standardization".

  Takeaway delivery pain points attract "standard" attention

  Recently, a news that "the delivery guy thinks the food is slow, and he cooks it by himself" has attracted the attention of netizens. Some netizens watched and praised it, but many people expressed their concerns about the safety of food delivered by takeout.

  In recent years, with the accelerating pace of work and the deepening of Internet applications, takeaway delivery services such as food delivery have emerged and grown rapidly. According to a report released by iiMedia Consulting, the transaction volume of China’s takeaway market is expected to reach 2045.6 billion yuan in 2017.

  However, at the same time, there are still blind spots in the supervision of the takeaway delivery industry, the lack of unified industry norms, and the rapid development of the industry have also brought many problems, leading to continuous consumer complaints.

  Some industry insiders said that the current takeaway delivery industry threshold is not high, the quality of practitioners is uneven, the personal flow is relatively large, coupled with some enterprise management is not in place, many factors lead to food delivery timeout, incomplete food, poor health and safety conditions and other problems have occurred, similar to the "takeaway brother started cooking" case, naturally easy to attract consumer attention.

  "At present, the food delivery service is still in the stage of’barbaric growth ‘. The pain points of the industry are the same for all food delivery companies. What the industry needs most at present is a unified standard," said Chen Xue, head of Meituan food delivery in southern China.

  Some provisions of the preliminary "prescription" need to be improved

  In fact, recognizing the importance of standards, leading industry companies have recently increased their efforts in this area.

  Recently, the Commercial Industry Branch of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade officially launched the "Takeaway Delivery Service Specification", which attracted widespread attention in the industry. For the first time, the "Specification" provides comprehensive and systematic regulations on the service organization requirements, service personnel, service processes, abnormal situation handling, service quality control and service quality improvement of takeaway delivery.

  A person in charge of the public relations department of "Ele.me" said that "Ele.me" has also developed a set of corporate distribution standards, which have been updated to the fourth edition. The standard includes basic norms such as employment with health certificates, clothing, employee training management, and detailed rules such as preparation for departure, delivery, and conduct at customers.

  "Meituan also released its own takeaway delivery standard not long ago." Chen Xue said that it is generally consistent with the "Specification" issued this time, and will further refer to the "Specification" to continuously improve the company’s standards.

  In response to the launch of the "Specification", many industry insiders said that many of the content is launched for the actual problems of the current industry, which is of great reference to enterprises. But on the other hand, the specification is only a group standard, not a mandatory national standard, so it is difficult to fundamentally solve the many problems of takeaway delivery.

  However, Jiao Min, a lawyer at Henan Guohou Law Firm, believes that the greatest significance of the launch of the "Norms" is not whether it is mandatory in itself, but in the comprehensive and systematic regulations on all aspects of takeaway distribution, such as stipulating that takeaway distribution institutions should have enterprise legal person qualifications; delivery personnel must be at least 18 years old, and delivery personnel should be subject to identity review. These contents have a good guiding effect on the healthy development of the industry.

  He also said that the "Code" only provides a preliminary "prescription" for the current problems in the food delivery industry, and the content of many aspects is still rough and needs to be further refined.

  Wang Dianming, a lawyer at Beijing Tongchuang Law Firm, also said that some provisions in the "Code" are still relatively vague and need to be further clarified. "For example, it is stipulated that food delivery staff cannot accept tips. At present, there is a function to reward food delivery staff on major food delivery platforms. The amount ranges from 1.1 yuan, and some platforms do not even cap it. Is this a tip?" Wang Dianming said.

  Expect higher standards in the future

  From the actual situation, most merchants in the takeaway delivery industry are currently enforcing their own rules and regulations, but a set of standards is not conducive to the long-term development of the takeaway delivery industry, and may also cause trouble to consumers.

  Wan Ying, secretary general of China IoT E-commerce Logistics and Express Branch, introduced that the standards in our country can be roughly divided into four levels: group standards, local standards, industry standards, and national standards. Social groups can formulate group standards without national standards, industry standards, and local standards, and quickly respond to innovation and market demand for standards to fill the gaps in existing standards.

  Some experts said that as a group standard, the "Code" can attract attention from all parties to the problem of takeaway delivery, and can also establish and promote internal self-discipline in the industry. But for the "Code" to be implemented, it must rely on the joint compliance of merchants, takeaway service companies and consumers.

  Some industry insiders said that after the implementation of the "Standard", in a sense, it will guide both distribution companies and consumers. Consumers will choose distribution service companies according to the "Standard", and distribution companies that are difficult to "meet the standard" may face the pressure of being eliminated by the market.

  Xu Yong, chief consultant of Express Logistics Information Network, said that with the further development of the takeaway distribution industry, it is urgent to establish more generally binding and enforceable industry standards or national standards to create conditions for the standardized development of the entire industry.

  "After the launch of this" standard ", if it is tested by practice, it is indeed more scientific and has a certain degree of operability. It cannot be ruled out that after continuous improvement and national recognition, this standard will eventually form an industry standard or even become a national standard." Xu Yong said.

Personal computer market declines, HP starts layoffs again: more than 4,000 people are laid off in three years.

  Demand in the PC market is weak, and HP announced plans to "slim down".

  After the US stock market closed on November 22, local time, PC manufacturer Hewlett-Packard (HP Inc) released its fourth fiscal quarter results for fiscal year 2022 as of October 31 this year, during which its revenue dropped by 11% to $14.8 billion, with a loss of $3.1 billion. Hewlett-Packard said that it plans to cut 4,000 to 6,000 people around the world in the next three years, or 10% of the 51,000 employees, in order to save costs and achieve transformation.

  Hewlett-Packard said that this "Future Ready Transformation Plan" will reduce the company’s annualized total operating costs by at least $1.4 billion in the next three years, including about $1 billion related to restructuring. Hewlett-Packard said that of the $1 billion, $600 million will be allocated to the fiscal year 2023 ending on October 31, 2023, and the rest will be equally distributed between the fiscal years 2024 and 2025.

  It has been three years since HP last laid off employees. The US Consumer News and Business Channel (CNBC) said that the company’s last layoffs can be traced back to 2019, when HP announced that it would lay off 7,000 to 9,000 employees. As of October 2021, HP had about 51,000 employees.

  In the post-epidemic era, the dividend of home office faded, and consumers’ demand for personal computers decreased, which led to a sharp decline in the shipment of HP’s main product personal computers. Hewlett-Packard’s fourth-quarter financial report shows that the company’s revenue during the period decreased by 11.2% year-on-year to $14.8 billion; The net loss was $2 million, compared with the net profit of $3.1 billion in the same period last year, which turned a profit into a loss.

  In the fourth quarter, HP’s Personal Systems division, including personal computers, saw its revenue drop by 13% to US$ 10.3 billion, and its consumer business revenue dropped by 25% and its commercial business revenue dropped by 6%. In terms of shipments, HP’s total shipments decreased by 21% in the fourth quarter, including laptop shipments decreased by 26% and desktop shipments decreased by 3%; From the perspective of profitability, the operating profit margin of the personal system department decreased from 6.9% in the last quarter to 4.5%.

  Source: HP Quarterly Report

  Based on this, HP issued a pessimistic profit guideline. For the next fiscal quarter, the company predicted that the adjusted net profit per share would be 70 cents to 80 cents, which was lower than the analyst’s forecast of 86 cents. For fiscal year 2023, HP expects adjusted net profit per share to be $3.2 to $3.6, which is also lower than the analyst’s forecast of $3.62 per share. The company predicts that the market demand for personal computers will further decline in the next fiscal quarter.

  Not only HP, but also the whole PC market is facing the dilemma of weak demand. According to the report released by research institute Gartner10 in October, global PC shipments totaled 68 million units in the past quarter, down 19.5% year-on-year, which is the biggest decline since the analysis institute began to track the PC market in the mid-1990s.

  Gartner analyst Mikako Kitagawa believes that this marks a historic slowdown in the PC market. He said, "In view of the weak demand for personal computers from consumers and commercial markets, high inventory has become a major problem. Although many companies have carried out large-scale promotion and price reduction, the sales results are disappointing because many consumers have bought new computers in the past two years and there is no demand at present. In terms of business, geopolitical and economic uncertainties lead to more selective IT spending, and personal computers are not on the priority list of consumers. "

  Dell Inc, HP’s competitor, faces the same problem. Dell’s total revenue in the third quarter fell by 6% to $24.7 billion. The company said that the weak PC market will continue, and it is expected that the decline in PC revenue will be even greater in the next quarter.

  As of the close of US stocks on November 22nd, HP rose slightly by 0.75% to close at $29.38 per share.

  The organizer later explained that during the competition, the staff were reminded that court of arbitration for sports had previously stipulated that Russia was forbidden to use the Russian flag and national anthem in large-scale international competitions. In view of the fact that the game has already started, the staff of the World International Checkers Federation had to directly withdraw the items related to the Russian national symbol from the table. In addition, the staff explained that this was done because they might be sanctioned for this matter. In the end, the Russian player Tanskuzhina was defeated.

  On December 17, 2020, court of arbitration for sports found that the Russian Anti-Doping Center violated the rules, and announced that Russian athletes could not represent their country in major international sports events including the Tokyo Olympic Games and the world championships of various events until December 16, 2022, but only participated in a neutral capacity, and were not allowed to use the Russian flag and national anthem.

Double super in one city! Why is Qingdao football fruitful?

Public Network reporter Mao Daoguang reports from Qingdao

The past weekend has become the most unforgettable day for Qingdao football!

In the 29th round of League A, Qingdao West Coast, which holds the initiative, beat Guangzhou team 2-0, thus locking the Super League seat in advance for next season. At this point, there are two Super League teams for the first time in the history of Qingdao football, and it has become the seventh city in China that will soon have the "Super League Derby" after Shanghai and Guangzhou.

Success is never achieved overnight. In the past ten years, Qingdao professional football has set foot on the top of the mountain and once fell into a trough. Fortunately, Qingdao football has never given up lightly, and with a tenacity, it has regained the road of chasing dreams in difficulties.

One city "double super"! At this moment, Qingdao football has realized the "dream of two heroes" in the top leagues in China, and let the whole country see the profound connotation of "Football City" and let football become the shining business card of this city again!

01

Looking back at Qingdao football in recent years, there are too many moments worth remembering!

Drinking ice for 9 years, blood is hard to cool! After many years of silence, Qingdao Manatee returned to the Super League from China B, and made its home debut 10 years later in Youth Stadium, the first 50,000 professional football stadium newly opened in Shandong this season, beating former enemy Beijing Guoan 3-1, which made countless fans dream back to 10 years ago and rekindled the hope of Qingdao football.

Qingdao West Coast Football Club, formerly known as Qingdao Kangtaiyuan Commercial Concrete Football Team, was established in 2007. In 2019, it was awarded the qualification of Grade B, and officially entered the China Football Professional League in 2020. In April, 2022, Qingdao Youth Island Football Club officially moved into German Football Asia Base. After playing in League A in the 2022 season, the young team hit it off with the West Coast, a city of youth, and set a more ambitious goal: changing its name to the West Coast, fighting for Qingdao and fighting for the West Coast New District.

The home relocation to Qingdao West Coast University Town Stadium marks that Qingdao West Coast New District has the first team to compete in professional football matches. As a new landmark of the West Coast New District, Guzhenkou University Town Stadium can accommodate 20,000 people and is one of the closest stadiums in China. It has been officially unveiled and put into use on May 10th this year. As the home of Qingdao West Coast Team in League A and Qingdao Red Lion Team in League B, it has been frequently unveiled in national competitions.

This autumn, Qingdao Manatee relegated to the Super League two rounds ahead of schedule, Qingdao West Coast overtook the Super League one round ahead of schedule, and Qingdao women’s football team returned to the domestic women’s football professional league, all of which are inseparable from the silent cultivation of Qingdao football for many years. With the end of the "Jinyuan Football" era, the inherent advantages of Qingdao football have gradually emerged, and the achievements of football development and youth training have blossomed everywhere, which has also polished the "golden signboard" of football again.

"The success of the West Coast Club is inseparable from the attention of the municipal party committee and the municipal government and the support from all walks of life. With two super league teams, Qingdao football has reached a new height. I hope that we can make persistent efforts next, and Qingdao Football can continue to contribute to China Football. " Tian Weiguo, director of Qingdao Football Activity Management Center, said this.

As a prestigious "Football City", on January 25th, 2022, Qingdao was successfully selected as one of the first nine key cities for football development in China during the 14th Five-Year Plan period. This is the third time that Qingdao has won this honor since 1979 and 1992. In 2023, Qingdao Football has achieved full coverage of football professional clubs at all levels, including Super League, China A, China B, Women A and Five Super League.

The achievement of such excellent results is inseparable from Qingdao’s policy support for football development.

In terms of support for professional sports clubs, Qingdao Sports Bureau issued the Measures for Supporting and Encouraging High-level Professional Sports Clubs in Qingdao according to the spirit of the document "Implementation Opinions on Promoting National Fitness and Sports Consumption to Promote High-quality Development of Sports Industry". The Qingdao Municipal Sports Bureau will set up a sports industry support incentive fund, which will invest 35 million yuan every year to support the high-level professional sports clubs in Qingdao, and reward them according to the results of professional leagues.

In November of the same year, the leading group for the promotion of football reform and development in Qingdao also issued the "Construction Plan of National Key Cities for Football Development in Qingdao during the Tenth Five-Year Plan". The plan clearly sets the goals to be achieved by 2025, focusing on building 1-2 super league teams; Realize the 9-level elite echelon of Super League Club and the 7-level elite echelon of Zhongjia Club; Set up 1-2 professional women’s football clubs … and the goal of focusing on building 1-2 super league teams was first fulfilled this autumn.

Looking at the whole country, there are only a handful of cities that can be called "football cities". Qingdao has enjoyed a good reputation for many years, which is inseparable from its excellent youth training system and good youth football competitions.

For a long time, Qingdao youth football has a profound foundation and outstanding achievements in youth training. The traditional event "Mayor Cup" campus football league has gone through 32 seasons. The league also achieved full coverage from the primary school, junior high school, senior high school and university four-level campus football league system. By the end of 2021, the "Mayor Cup" campus football league had organized 3,694 games, in which 22,553 players from 1,510 teams participated. Qingdao campus football is constantly exploring the deeper field of integration of sports and education. The introduction of a series of security policies and the practice of trying first provide protection for children who like playing football and take care of their studies.

By 2023, 10 Qingdao athletes, including Wang Ziming, Liu Yang, Li Lei, Wei Zhang, Wang Haobin, Li Suda, Liu Chen, Zhang Yiqian, Shuo Yang and Shao Mingzhen, have been selected into national football teams at all levels, and outstanding talents are constantly emerging; Qingdao U9-U14 football team won five championships in six groups in the 2023 Shandong Football Championship, and Qingdao U16 women’s football team became the first team to advance to the top four of the National Student (Youth) Games, with excellent competitive results.

In addition, Dong Lu, a well-known football commentator, also praised Qingdao’s youth training in the recent live broadcast. He said that Qingdao has a large number of football talents and good football development genes. Youth training clubs such as Qingdao West Coast Football Club and Qingdao Zhuifeng Youth Football Club have performed very well on the field, and many high-level athletes and coaches are also impressive.

"Fight, Qingdao team!" It is not only a slogan, but also engraved into the football memory of a generation.

Counting the football history of Qingdao, at the beginning of the China Professional League, Qingdao established its own professional team-Qingdao Manatee. The time can be traced back to December 31st, 1993. Qingdao Manatee Football Club was formally established, and it became one of the founding teams of Chinese Football Association Super League together with Shandong Taishan, Beijing Guoan, Tianjin Jinmenhu and Shenzhen Team.

In 2002, Qingdao Yizhong Manatee hired Li Zhangzhu, a famous Korean coach, as the head coach, and the team won the China Football Association Cup, which was the first national championship in the history of Qingdao professional football. Qingdao Huanghai Qinggang Team won the championship in the 2019 season and successfully overtook it. In the 2020 season, Qingdao Manatee Team and Qingdao West Coast Team also staged the "Qingdao Derby" in the second season. In the 2021 season, the Qingdao Manatee team took the lead in rushing to the A, and the West Coast team subsequently succeeded in rushing to the A in the play-offs of the 2021 season. In the 2022 season, the two teams will continue to stage the "Qingdao Derby" in the Chinese team. Last year, the Manatees took the lead in overtaking, and the West Coast team gained a foothold in the Chinese team. By the 2023 season, the West Coast team was successful, while the Manatee team was successful in relegation in the Super League.

At the recently concluded 2023 China Qingdao Fashion Sports Industry Conference, Liu Jianhong attended as a guest, also talked about Qingdao at the scene, and praised the development of Qingdao football. He said, "In 1996, as a reporter of CCTV’s Football Night, I came to Qingdao to interview League A and B, and witnessed the process of the Manatees returning from League A to League A that year." After leaving CCTV, Liu Jianhong came to Qingdao again in 2021. He presided over the expedition ceremony of Qingdao Manatee. The Manatee was successfully upgraded from B in that year, and it was successful at the end of 2022. Today, the Manatee has become a strong force in the Super League again. As a football city, Qingdao and Liu Jianhong have witnessed the ups and downs of Qingdao football for so many years.

In the long history of football development in China, Qingdao football has experienced ups and downs, but it has never been absent.

Derby is an unavoidable topic in a region where football is booming. Two teams in the same region staged a "peak showdown", accompanied by tens of thousands of fans shouting like a tsunami, the two sides joined hands in the game to contribute to the offensive and defensive war, and the fierce physical confrontation and the collision of beliefs among fans undoubtedly made it the most eye-catching game at present, which also made the football economy "hot"!

Looking around the world, there are the famous Manchester derby and North London derby in the Premier League, the national derby between Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, the "Milan duo" in Serie A, and the most intense national derby between Boca and Riverbed Argentina.

In China, the derby in the same city is also one of the most concerned games. Compared with the "Jinglu War" and "Jingyue War", the once Guangzhou Derby, Wuhan Derby and Tianjin Derby gradually disappeared from public view with the fading of "Jinyuan Football". Now, the joining of Qingdao Derby not only injects fresh blood into the league, but also appears more precious in timing.

Looking forward to the 2024 season, Qingdao will usher in the "city derby" of the Super League for the first time, Qingdao manatee and Qingdao West Coast will usher in "love and kill each other", and the "football economy" will gradually spread from the north shore of Jiaozhou Bay, which was on fire this year, to the west coast of Jiaozhou Bay. At that time, the two teams will also dedicate a wonderful showdown for Qingdao and even the national fans.

One city "double super"! This is an affirmation of the hard work of Qingdao football for many years, and it has injected a "cardiotonic agent" into the development of Qingdao football. Whether manatees avoid relegation, or the West Coast overtake, or the gradual improvement of the youth training system, to a certain extent, it reflects the long-term vision and unremitting pursuit of Qingdao’s football career development.

Dapeng rises with the wind in one day, soaring to Wan Li. In the future, Qingdao Football will take advantage of the east wind of "building a key city for national football development" to vigorously promote the deepening of football reform, do a good job in training and transporting youth football, comprehensively improve the overall development level of football, and make the reputation of "Football City" a "golden signboard" of Qingdao.

Inheriting and carrying forward traditional culture with literary and artistic innovation

Video production: intern Wu Menghan

The symposium on cultural inheritance and development held on June 2, 2023 proposed that we should adhere to integrity and innovation, keep the integrity and spirit of integrity and innovation, continue the historical context, and write contemporary Chinese chapters. How to innovate literary and artistic works in the new era? In response to the above problems, People’s Daily interviewed Dilinar Abra, vice chairman of China Federation of Literary and Art Circles and chairman of Xinjiang Dancers Association.

Moderator:How to treat the relationship between literary and artistic innovation and inheriting and developing traditional culture? How to innovate literary and artistic works in the new era?

Dilinar Abra:Innovation is the first driving force to lead the development of literature and art.

The innovation of literary and artistic works in the new era should adhere to the position of Chinese culture and make Chinese excellent traditional culture an important source of literary and artistic innovation. Literary and art workers should strive to draw nutrition and wisdom from Chinese excellent traditional culture, continue cultural genes, extract ideological essence and show spiritual charm.

Innovation is the life of literature and art. Only when literary and art workers follow the life innovation of the times and innovate with their own artistic style will the literary and art garden be full of spring scenery and flowers bloom. Only by putting the spirit of innovation into the whole process of literary and artistic creation and production, enhancing the original ability of literature and art, fully developing in genre, theme, form and means, and promoting the innovation of concept, content and style, can literary and artistic creation move towards a broader world.

Make full use of new technologies and means to expand the new space of literature and art. New technology leads to media changes, and gives birth to new literary ideas and practices. Literary and art workers should fully understand the relationship between art and technology, enrich cultural connotation, explore new means of expression and realize the new integration of art and technology.

The era has provided an unprecedented broad stage for the prosperity and development of literature and art. Literary and art workers should grasp the historical process and the general trend of the times, take root in the fertile soil of life, bravely climb the peak of literature and art, achieve new achievements in integrity and innovation, strive to create excellent works worthy of our great nation and great era, and strive to write a new chapter in literary and artistic glory in the new era.

Moderator:As a national dance artist, how do you think to inherit and develop China classical dance? How to Incorporate Xinjiang Ethnic Dances into China Classical Dance System?

Dilinar Abra:China classical dance is a kind of Chinese classical dance with Chinese traditional humanistic spirit, dance language, high aesthetic formula and cultural connotation, and exemplary aesthetic meaning, which has been gradually formed by several generations of professional dance artists through continuous refining, sorting, processing, research and creation of traditional operas, unearthed cultural relics images, literature records and folk traditional dances. At present, it has formed a genre and great influence.

We should see that the dance cultures of all ethnic groups in Xinjiang today, especially the folk dances represented by Xinjiang Uygur Muqam art and Tajik eagle dance, all have the cultural attributes of China classical dance, and should be regarded as an organic part of China classical dance genre. From its historical development and cultural aesthetic paradigm, China’s classical dance should also have the "pluralistic" atmosphere and tension of the classical dance of all ethnic groups in China, so as to better build a pluralistic "dance community" of the Chinese nation.

Xinjiang minority dance was produced in the production and life of ethnic minorities, which is an important embodiment of the production and life and humanistic customs at that time, and it is also a treasure of Xinjiang minority traditional culture.

I suggest that, first, organize dance experts to sort out the dances of various ethnic groups in Xinjiang that conform to the concept and characteristics of China classical dance, and form a convincing theoretical and practical basis.

The second is to establish the China Xinjiang classical dance system in education and teaching, gradually improve and develop the types of China Xinjiang classical dance, and make contributions to enriching the connotation of China classical dance.

The third is to organize professional teams and special funds to conduct thematic research around the "pluralistic integration" pattern of China classical dance and the historical cultural requirement of building a "dance community" of the Chinese nation.

Moderator:How can the cultures of various ethnic groups in the border areas better integrate into Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture while maintaining their unique charm?

Dilinar Abra:China has a long history of culture and profound Chinese civilization. As a part of China traditional culture, frontier ethnic culture is an important part of China excellent traditional culture, which is of great significance in promoting the cultural development of the Chinese nation, promoting national unity and harmony, protecting and inheriting Chinese excellent cultural traditions, and has extensive social significance and cultural value.

In the process of inheriting and carrying forward China’s excellent traditional culture, red revolutionary culture and modern socialist culture, how to integrate national characteristics into them is an important measure to continuously enhance the sense of identity, an effective starting point for building the sense of community of the Chinese nation, and also the key to building the foundation of national unity.

How can the cultures of various ethnic groups in the border areas better integrate into Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture while maintaining their unique charm? Let me talk about my understanding from three aspects.

First, we must uphold the leadership of the party. It is always under the care of our party that the frontier minority cultures have a steady stream of vitality and the direction of progress. As we all know, Xinjiang Uyghur Muqam art has been successfully selected into the United Nations oral and intangible cultural heritage list of mankind. The outstanding achievements in the inheritance and protection of Kirgiz national epic Manas, Mongolian Long Tune, Kazak Aites, Xinjiang Huaer and Xinjiang Han Shehuo and their inclusion in the national intangible cultural heritage list are all achieved under the strong leadership and care of the Party and the joint efforts of cultural and artistic workers of all ethnic groups.

Xinjiang has a vast territory, scattered population and diversified development of culture and art, which benefits from and is limited by this. Only under the leadership of the party can we realize effective resource integration and make the vitality of folk art more vigorous; Only under the leadership of the Party can the cultures and arts of all ethnic groups find their roots and souls, conduct systematic research and excavation, and truly achieve prosperity and development; Only under the leadership of the Party can we accurately locate the cultural and artistic characteristics of all ethnic groups, grasp the direction, go to the whole country and the world, and make contributions to telling the story of China.

The second is to cast a solid sense of the Chinese nation’s community from the roots. To organically integrate Chinese excellent traditional culture with national characteristics, it is necessary to dig deep into the unique cultural connotation of the Chinese nation. For example, in terms of culture and art, eating habits, traditional festivals, etc., under the guidance of the cultural concept of beauty and beauty, the artistic characteristics of all ethnic groups are integrated into Chinese traditional festivals, which better enriches the festive atmosphere of festivals and increases the expressions of culture and art of all ethnic groups.

To realize the integration of national characteristics and Chinese excellent traditional culture, it is necessary to strengthen education and publicity. Let more people know about the cultural and artistic characteristics of all ethnic groups under the pattern of pluralistic integration of Chinese culture, and then stimulate people’s cultural self-confidence and pride.

"Feelings of home and country" has always been a constant source of life for the cultural and artistic inheritance and development of our ethnic groups. From a historical point of view, the Western Regions Daduhufu, Anxi Daduhufu, Yili General’s Mansion, the brocade armguard of "Five Stars Going to the East to Benefit China", and the 18th Western Regions Daduhu Li Chong general print are historical witnesses of the multi-ethnic co-prosperity and development in Xinjiang history.

Vigorously tap the highlights of Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s advanced culture in the new era, vigorously promote the combination of Xinjiang song and dance art and realistic themes, give full play to artistic advantages, and tell the Xinjiang chapter of China’s story well.

At the same time, we need to strengthen the protection and inheritance of traditional culture. Traditional culture relies on word of mouth, but in modern society, with the changes of lifestyle and ideas, the inheritance of traditional culture is facing great challenges. Therefore, we need to take a series of measures, such as establishing a perfect traditional culture protection system and strengthening the investment in the research and inheritance of traditional culture, so as to ensure the good protection and inheritance of Chinese excellent traditional culture and national characteristics.

Third, we must adhere to the pluralistic and integrated pattern of Chinese culture and be upright and innovative. China traditional culture has unique artistic expressions, such as painting, sculpture, poetry and so on. China’s traditional culture has absorbed the national cultural characteristics of the border areas, such as the cheerfulness and boldness of Xinjiang’s song and dance art, and a strong sense of substitution on the spot, which greatly enriched the artistic expressions.

In the Internet age, under the trend of the integration of new media and self-media, the ethnic cultures in the border areas should stick to the position of Chinese culture, show the core values of Chinese excellent traditional culture to the audience, and on this basis, show the cultural and artistic characteristics of all ethnic groups, so as to achieve the role of empathy through art.

The frontier national culture and China traditional culture are complementary and integrated, and this cultural integration has important social significance and cultural value. Border ethnic culture plays an irreplaceable role in promoting China’s cultural diversity and national unity and harmony.

Therefore, it is a historical necessity to integrate national characteristics into Socialism with Chinese characteristics culture. It is a bright topic in the new era to fully display the cultural and artistic characteristics of all ethnic groups, and it is also a problem that we need to pay attention to and think about in the process of inheriting and carrying forward traditional culture. We will continue to give full play to the cultural and artistic characteristics of the ethnic minorities in the border areas on the basis of the cultural core of Socialism with Chinese characteristics, and make our due contribution to telling the Xinjiang chapter of China’s story.

(Editor: Feng Chunyun, He Yingchun)

Yan Junjun, founder of Football, commented: Creating a new era of football in China.

  Editor’s note:He is the founder of Football. He has been a China football reporter for more than 40 years. He witnessed and recorded the eventful years of China football in the past half century. He is Yan Junjun! Although he is over eighty years old, he still pays close attention to the development of football in China. After a new round of anti-corruption and anti-counterfeiting in China, Yan Lao wrote this article "Creating a New Era of Football in China" in his hometown of Wanning, Hainan, which is his profound thinking on football in China.

  Looking at the changes in the world football situation, we can only know the backwardness of Chinese football. It is disappointing that western professional football failed to shine brilliantly in the socialist countries with China characteristics.

  China is carrying out the socialist construction with China characteristics. China football can’t keep pace with the times and do nothing, which is quite criticized by Chinese people, and it can’t live up to the ardent expectations of China fans.

  In 2022, the success of Qatar Football World Cup was a sensation all over the world. This World Cup is full of China elements and China flavor. Such as venue construction, stadium advertisements and reception hotels, are basically built and put into operation by enterprises in China. The crowd laughed and said, "All China people went there, except the football team." The world’s elite football players who fight on the field just don’t see the players wearing the word "China". This kind of loss is beyond words. As the first generation of sports journalists trained in New China, the "trumpeter" who promoted the development of football in China, and the witness of China’s sports take-off, I felt lost and sad when I saw this situation, which can be said to have reached the level of "grief".

  Needless to say, China fans are disappointed by the absence of the national team from the World Cup, and their grief has reached an extreme level. Not only that, the rapid development of football has been blocked, and even the fans of small countries in Southeast Asia have paid great attention to it. However, they are not sad, but "mocking" to express their negative encouragement and refueling to China football. They don’t understand China’s disappointing football, because they don’t understand the reason why China’s football is so depressed. All the ridicule and sarcasm are out of sympathy and goodwill expectation. After all, China is a big country in Asia, and it is more qualified to win glory for Asian football. The development of football in China is not satisfactory. I am sorry for the expectations of the people in the new era and the people who are pursuing a better life. At this moment, we should use a slogan in the early days of building socialism to encourage them: "Go all out and strive for the top"! Be angry and try to fight.

  To create a new era of football in China is to strive to become an Asian football power and strive to rank among the world football powers.

  Nowadays, in order to optimize the capitalist pure market-oriented professional football for our use, we must first understand the history of world football development, study the law of professional football development, and improve the cognitive level of professional football attributes, but this requires great efforts.

  The World Cup is the most important sports competition in the world, with the strongest appreciation, the largest audience and the highest commercial value. It is generally believed that a country can hardly be called a sports power even if other sports are advanced, such as football.

  FIFA has more than 200 members, more than the United Nations. It is an unshirkable responsibility to develop football.

  In May 1928, FIFA decided to host its own World Cup at the Amsterdam Congress. With the unremitting efforts of then FIFA President Rimet and Secretary General Delaune, the first World Cup was held in Uruguay two years later in 1930.

  FIFA once shut China out of the world football family, and China missed the World Cup. It simply regarded the World Cup as "bourgeois madness", did not report or broadcast it, and defined the World Cup as "capital".

  According to statistics, a total of 5 billion people participated in, watched and paid attention to FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022; About 3.4 million people watched the ball on the spot; There are 93.6 million posts related to the World Cup on social media.

  From 1930 to 2022, FIFA held 22 World Cups, and the countries that won the championship were all located in Europe and America. These countries are all capitalist countries, and socialist countries have never won the World Cup. Therefore, some scholars in China have judged that professional football can only be realized in a mature capitalist environment if it wants to develop healthily. Professional football is a typical product of capitalism. Today, we introduce the professional football named Zi to the socialist land with China characteristics, which seems to be acclimatized, and it seems to be "getting twice the result with half the effort".

  But forty years ago, there was a familiar saying that "the market economy is not a patent of capitalism". Socialist China did business with other countries through the "the belt and road initiative", which was mutually beneficial and win-win, and refuted the "patent" theory.

  Today, China’s economic entity ranks second in the world. Eighty years ago, the slogan of "surpassing Britain to catch up with the United States" in rural Hainan was realized ahead of schedule in the new era of socialism with China characteristics.

  Can China scholars in the new era ask such questions? The World Cup is not the patent of capitalism. The key is to be good at injecting China characteristics and do a good job in football articles with "China characteristics".

  In fact, China is a land of geomantic omen. It has the advantages of developing people’s sports, actively participating in the international arena of competitive sports, and being among the world’s sports powers. There is no need to make a fuss about the corruption in China’s football field, but we must deal with it resolutely according to the current laws and policies, take it seriously and never tolerate it. In a word, it is "zero tolerance"! In addition, we must find the reason from the root.

  China’s failure in football is not entirely due to the corruption of the Football Association, while China’s football training mechanism, competition mechanism and talent selection mechanism are insufficient. At the same time, the professionalism and professional ethics of the football players in China are not up to standard. Those football powers are not directly related to the fact that the country is relatively rich and the Football Association is relatively clean and honest. The key is to cultivate outstanding football talents, the so-called "stars". Take the final in FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 as an example. It was a close match between Argentina and France. Argentina led 2-0 in the first half, France tied 2-2 in the second half, and scored 3-3 in extra time, and Argentina won the final with 4-2. Throughout the audience, you can’t see the shadow of the country’s wealth, and you can’t see the help of the resourcefulness and decisiveness of the football associations of the two countries. It’s all the technical cooperation of 22 stars, specifically the footwork of Messi and Mbappé. In the end, it is the goalkeeper’s fighting skills, psychological quality and even luck. What I see is the selfless spirit of fighting for national honor with body language. This makes us understand that it is people, the players on the field and the coaches off the field who decide the victory or defeat of football.

  Unfortunately, in recent 30 years, China has not produced many valuable stars, and there is no "Rong Zhixing" after Rong Zhixing, which is really a difficult problem in China football. And the answer depends on the team of China Football Association to find out the problem and put forward the solution. It is necessary to lead the national football workers, crack it and hand over the answers that satisfy the people all over the country. Time waits for no one, 10,000 years is too long, seize the day, and within ten years, can you hand over the answer?

  The following three reasons, talk about the shortcomings of the development of football in China, hoping to attract people’s discussion.

  The first is the mechanism. Some sports in China, such as basketball (women’s), volleyball (women’s), table tennis, badminton, swimming, gymnastics and weightlifting, are in the forefront of the world, while other sports, such as track and field, are approaching the world level. The backwardness of football really does not conform to the law of the development of sports in China. It can be said that the development of football in China has not yet found a road suitable for the characteristics of China. To create a new road for the development of football in China, we must set up a Football Association team with China characteristics, which is suitable for China’s national conditions. Emphasis on characteristics is because China is a socialist country, and we must emphasize the strong leadership of the party and the state.

  At that time, when Comrade Wu Shaozu was the director of the State Sports Commission, Comrade Li Tieying, a member of the Political Bureau, personally cared, and a new atmosphere appeared in football. Today’s Football Association leaders, in addition to lacking authority, even lack courage and professional knowledge. In a word, they are not worthy of both ability and political integrity. China, Japan and South Korea began to reform football almost at the same time, but so far, we are at least twenty or thirty years behind Japan and South Korea. Some people say that professional football must be realized in a mature capitalist environment if it wants to take off. This view has a great market among some people. In today’s socialist China, with the western market economy concept and operation mode, we can do business with the developed countries in the world, and win each other for mutual benefit, and make China rich, and get better and better. Can’t China’s football become stronger without introducing the form of western professional football to China for operation? China people say no. They believe that as long as they are good at using the advantages of socialist countries, football, like other sports strengths, can climb the peak of world football. The football association with China characteristics must be combined with the reality of China’s football situation, otherwise, even if the FIFA president is hired as the president of the China Football Association, it will be difficult to move, acclimatized and accomplish nothing.

  Secondly, the talent selection system should introduce competition mechanism. The decision-makers (coaches) of China Football Association must be selected from the powerful figures in China, a strong sports province, especially a strong football province. In terms of players and coaches, China football has always been divided into north and south. The northern faction is represented by Liaoning and Dalian teams, while the southern faction is represented by Guangdong and Shanghai teams. Every World War I between the North and South teams is bound to stir up the whole country. However, since Ceng Xuelin left his post, most of the coaches of the national team were from the North, and the southern players who were good at technical flexibility were gradually neglected. Rong Zhixing, Gu Guangming, Zhao Dayu, Wu Qunli and other outstanding players no longer emerged.

  At that time, Nian Weisi, the president of the Football Association, was discerning and entrusted Su Yongshun with the responsibility of attacking the World Cup. He boldly used one-third of Guangdong players to play technical football, and almost rushed into the World Cup finals. Later, he failed, and the northern fans were dissatisfied. He criticized Su’s policy of "favoring Guangdong" by saying "China is a team from China". From then on, the strong and fierce tactics of long pass and high hanging led the team, lacking competition and single style, which made China football stand still. Even after Milu led China into a World Cup, it was well known that Japan and South Korea, as the hosts, vacated places in this World Cup, which facilitated China’s qualifying.

  In recent ten years, the China Football Association has been unable to open up the situation, mainly because the decision-makers are not qualified for both ability and political integrity. To form a new team of the Football Association, it is necessary to reuse those who have both ability and political integrity and combine the old with the new. Of course, we know that to cure the serious football addiction in China, we also need "old Chinese medicine practitioners". For example, Nian Weisi, the birthday girl in football, is an old-timer who has both ability and political integrity, wisdom and courage, and can fully participate in the "consultation" of the Football Association and make suggestions. Nian Weisi has a wide range of knowledge. Forty years ago, he once said that what a good cadre is is a person who can find problems and propose solutions to them, and solve them by this method. His understanding of football is simple and incisive. He thinks that football match is to be good at finding out the weakness of the opponent, making the opponent make mistakes, grasping the seven inches and killing the opponent. At the age of 90, his speech at the birthday party was in one go, full of sound and emotion, and his style remained the same. This kind of football "old Chinese doctor" has theory and practice, and can be used well. Moreover, there are many such "old Chinese medicine practitioners". Bi Xidong, a former sports reporter of China Youth Daily, is a rare wizard. Thirty years ago, he was the strategist of football reform in China. There is also one in Guangdong, that is, Dong Liangtian, former director of Guangdong Sports Commission. In the 1990s, he was a candidate for the president of China Football Association, but talents were rare. Guangdong authorities were unwilling to give up what they gave up, and Dong Liangtian stayed in the place.

  Dong Liangtian is a player and the absolute main force of the Guangdong team. After retirement, he is still committed to promoting football and promoting Guangdong football culture. He personally cooperated with large enterprises in Guangdong, set up the "Lixing Celebrity Football Club" and guided the training of young players in Guangdong, which achieved great results.

  Thirdly, there is a very important job, which is to improve the professionalism and professional ethics of the first-line players and form a correct outlook on life and mission.

  The China Football Association will launch a campaign to publicize and learn from Mr. Fok Ying-tung’s patriotism in the national football field. Mr. Fok Ying-tung’s efforts to develop sports in the motherland and improve the football level in China are irreplaceable by anyone. Mr. Fok Ying-tung is the first person in China to hold an important position in the International Olympic Committee and FIFA. It is necessary to make Mr. Fok Ying-tung’s patriotic spirit of fighting for national interests and national honor all his life carry forward in China football.

  Personally, I suggest that China Football Association move to Xiong ‘an, a new city in Hebei Province, which is in line with China people’s lottery customs and culture. I hope that China football will be "vigorous" and safe, steady and far-reaching.

Dancsics: Successfully lost weight and got back into shape, and took the lead in attacking the World Cup!

After the lone ranger missed the playoffs last season, Dancsics also disappeared from public view for a long time. Although Dancsics was still brave in last season, and once showed a 60-point triple-double performance, it still failed to meet the expectations of the fans.

After all, in the previous season, this lone ranger, led by Dancsics, made it to the Western Conference finals. However, the subsequent personnel changes made the team lose its original tacit understanding. In particular, the change of key players in the flank and back line has made the lone ranger suffer a lot. As a star player, Dancsics is inevitably the object of criticism from the outside world, and the first thing is his poor body control and slow pace on the defensive end.

After all, people have seen the terrifying strength of Jokic after losing weight in the 19th World Cup. In recent years, Mr. Yue has successively won MVP, championship and FMVP feats. As two European superstars, whether Dancsics can control his weight and attack the honor he had the chance to touch has drawn a big question mark in everyone’s mind. Recently, however, Dancsics pointed out an optimistic trend with practical actions.

Dancsics, who is preparing for the World Cup, has finally lost weight after a period of special training! The changes in his face and figure can be clearly seen from the photos. Compared with him in the NBA a few months ago, Luca is even stronger.

In the recent warm-up match against the Greek men’s basketball team, Dancsics scored 20 points, 9 rebounds and 14 assists, and still performed well. The oriental rhythm and excellent overall situation in the game are still there. At the same time, his confrontation ability is still very good, and players in the same position can basically take advantage of it.

At the same time, Dancsics has also been appointed as the captain of Slovenian national team, and he has more responsibilities and more missions. In the upcoming Men’s Basketball World Cup, can we lead this Slovenian men’s basketball team to break through or even top it? It is the first big test for Dancsics in the near future, and we look forward to the performance after Dancsics!
