The 2022 World Preliminary Tournament is still underway, but the road to the top 12 of the Chinese men's football team has come to an end. The Upcoming Winter Olympics this week will set off a wave of sports boom, as the host of the Chinese legion sent the strongest lineup in history, in the major collective sports men's and women's ice hockey team, nearly 30 naturalized players, which is also the largest batch naturalization in the history of Chinese sports.
Such a large naturalized lineup is an impact on the concept of Chinese, and future results may be an important criterion for judging the success of this initiative, but if a goal is set, then, under reasonable and legal rules, achieving the goal is success.
In the recently released list of Chinese Winter Olympic teams, the list of Chinese men's and women's ice hockey teams is surprising, with 13 naturalized players in the women's team and as many as 15 players in the men's team. With so many naturalized personnel, people can't help but think of the Chinese men's football team. For the obscurity of the Chinese Football Association, the ice hockey team has no taboos.
After the national football team naturalized several foreign aides, it was not used rationally, on the one hand, the football association officials still have illusions about the local players who are not useful, on the other hand, they are afraid that the Chinese people will accuse the record of relying on naturalization, the problem is that there is no outstanding record at all, where the merit is commended, the football association's forward-looking and backward also affects the coach Li Tie.
The managers of the two sports of Chinese ice hockey and football have different concepts, the Football Association must not only ensure the record, but also take care of the face, they envision still using Chinese local players as the team, which gives Li Tie a hint, so Li Tie will have prejudice and paranoia in the use of naturalized players, and even discriminate against naturalized players from the bones.
The managers of the ice hockey team are very clear, as long as they can complete the record, do not care about the comments of outsiders, recognize Chinese culture, and are willing to play for China, all foreign players can be tolerated.
The large-scale naturalization of foreign races by ice hockey teams is a subversive move, and the reason why ice hockey can be done more powerfully and thoroughly is also because their policies are more open. As long as you represent the Chinese club for two years, you can naturalize, while the football naturalization policy takes five years.
Many Chinese ice hockey teams have participated in cross-continental and transnational ice hockey leagues, and many Chinese teenagers in North America have participated in ice hockey training, in this regard, the blood-related Chinese ice hockey talents are more extensive than the selection of Chinese football players overseas. Coupled with the relaxation of the naturalization policy of the hockey league, it is easier to naturalize in batches.
On the list of expeditions, you can see that many foreign players who have just naturalized have not had time to name their own Chinese names. For the new identity, the players believe that they can serve as the host and fight for the Olympics for a big country, which is also a milestone in their careers. Interestingly, on the men's ice hockey team's list, a striker named YingRudi, who is the son of the famous actor and screenwriter Yingda.
Nearly 30 men and women hockey naturalized legion will be a spectacle of this Winter Olympics, as for how the record let us wait and see, no matter what country they were born in, now they are Chinese, representing the Chinese team, are the hosts, and their achievements will be the pride of the chinese people.
