Sunland, a gymnast who was paralyzed by an injury before training in the United States, has a young son who is already in elementary school and also likes to play football. On February 12, Sunland's husband, former professional fencer Huang Jian, wrote on his personal social media:
"Recently, at the Winter Olympics, the mainland performed well, and naturalized athletes won gold medals. My son asked me, can foreigners represent the Chinese team? ...... We Chinese men's soccer teams all use naturalized players, don't we? ......”
Huang Jian replied to his son, "... For example, Gu Ailing is indeed a native foreigner, and he grew up in a country with strong ice and snow projects, so basic training has a good environment. Of course, this naturalization is at least half of her Chinese genes, so there is nothing wrong with representing the Chinese team. But it also underscores the weakness on which we are on the mass basis of the winter movement...".
Regarding the naturalization phenomenon of national football, Huang Jian said: "I can't answer the question of the national football naturalized players, because I am afraid that he will not have confidence in the national football team. Unexpectedly, my son told me: Disband this session (national football), it stinks, wait until we grow up... I almost burst out laughing, and I told him that maybe this national football team member said the same thing when he was as old as you! ”
Huang Jian finally said: "I told him - to have a strong family!" The family of a child who plays football is very important, from heredity to knowledge to cultivation, energy, money, hope can not be less. Football is the world's largest sport, and it's not something you can win by calling someone else's kids..."
First, on the issue of "sports naturalization", Huang Jian's view represents the cognition of most Chinese people.
That is, the naturalization that must be carried out in the field of sports should be based on "non-blood naturalization", so that first of all, from the bloodline, these naturalized players can have empathy, empathy and true cultural identity with the Chinese.
In fact, like the phenomenon of sports naturalization, it has become a common phenomenon in foreign countries as early as possible, and unlike in our place, which has just opened this door, there are many controversies, and foreign countries, including non-blood naturalization, are also very common - but Huang Jian's meaning reflects a problem of "cultural identity", and indeed this should be an important consideration in non-blood naturalization.
If there is no sense of identity with culture and country, but only for the sake of temporary "mercenaries" for money, it is true that such naturalization practices do not really achieve the purpose of naturalization - the purpose of naturalized players, if it is only to win gold medals, only for the sake of achievements, then most of these naturalizations will eventually become "rotten tail projects".
Second, on the issue of the naturalization of the national football team, "all-use naturalization" can only be a helpless joke.
Obviously, in a country with a long history of 5,000 years of cultural tradition, the idea of "all-use naturalization" is difficult to achieve; even if our Winter Olympic ice hockey team has made some attempts, football is different, it is the world's largest sport, and it has a wider mass base and many lovers than ice hockey, and the influence of the two is not the same.
For example, Chen Hua, a reporter from Shanghai Media, said: If there are five or six players in the national football team who can't speak Chinese, I will smash the TV at home! Also take the high-speed rail to the front of the Football Association to "walk" Yunyun - Chen Hua's thoughts and emotions are also very representative, and if all naturalized players are used, such a national football team is extremely difficult to get public recognition.
Third, like the "little joke" of Sunland's younger son: "disbanding the national football team", in fact, it is really done, but it is still useless.
The development of Chinese football over the years has never been able to find a real development path suitable for itself; in the old model of institutionalization in the past, although Chinese football can still be said in Asia in the environment at that time, it still cannot enter the World Cup.
Since then, after the marketization and professionalization, especially the prevalence of "golden dollar football", although it has created a large number of foreign aid from billionaires, it is even more soaring, and it has also achieved many tens of millions and billionaires of Chinese local players, but their level, ability and achievements in playing football are even more inconsistent with their abnormally high income!
At the same time, our youth training level, the number of people, the number of football registrations and other basic football projects are also lagging behind in an all-round way, especially huang Jian's "family foundation" of playing football is too poor - how many parents support their children to play football? Therefore, there are even people in the football circle who say: in the next two or three decades, Chinese football will be difficult to turn over!
It can be seen from this that Chinese football cannot do the basic work of youth training without the extensive and genuine support of the family; if it does not make bone-scraping and healing reforms in the mechanism and system, Chinese football will still repeat the results of being thrown to the ground and thin as mud again and again in one reincarnation after another! 【Original Review: Yu said that hugh】
