Over the past few years, there have been a series of shocking events in Chinese football, the most notable of which was the dismissal of former national football coach Gao Hongbo. When Gao Hongbo was fired, Fan Zhiyi expressed his dissatisfaction, feeling that Gao Hongbo was upright, and didn't understand why he was allowed to go. However, now, former national football coach Li Tie personally confessed that in order to become the head coach of the national football team, he spent 3 million, of which 2 million bribed Chen Xuyuan, then chairman of the Football Association, and 1 million bribed Liu Yi, secretary general of the Football Association. As soon as this news broke, it immediately aroused widespread attention and heated discussions from all walks of life.
Looking back on the events of that year, Gao Hongbo was a well-respected coach whose spirit of reform and innovation in Chinese football caused a lot of controversy. He experimented with a number of new training methods and tactical concepts, which caused discontent among vested interests in the football world. Some people may feel that he has destroyed the original order, and do not want to see a person who dares to challenge the system continue to sit in that position. However, Gao Hongbo has always adhered to his own philosophy, and he firmly believes that as long as he is still in this position, he has to work hard.
Now, the matter has finally come to light, and the reason why Gao Hongbo was kicked away is not as simple as previously guessed. He was fired because he didn't have enough support. This can't help but make people feel sorry, and we feel both sympathy and anger for Gao Hongbo's experience. We hope that the relevant departments can strengthen supervision and severely punish those corrupt elements, so that such things will not happen again.
However, what we should think about more is how to better support those potential coaches and players, so that they can contribute more to our Chinese football. The revitalization of Chinese football requires the joint efforts and support of each and every one of us. We need to create a better environment and opportunities for talented coaches and players to reach their full potential.
We need to establish a more fair and transparent selection mechanism to bring out the truly talented coaches and players. This requires us to break the existing pattern of interests, abandon the short-sighted and utilitarian mentality, and select talents with the goal of long-term development.
There is a need to increase the development of coaches and players. This includes providing more training opportunities, introducing advanced teaching concepts and methods, and establishing sound evaluation and incentive mechanisms. Only by continuously improving the quality and ability of coaches and players can we cultivate more outstanding players and coaches and promote the development of Chinese football.
We need to create a good public opinion environment and strengthen the publicity and education of football culture. Football is not just a sport, it is a culture, a spirit. We need to promote the charm and value of football through various channels, and raise public awareness and recognition of football.
The government, the Football Association, clubs, the media and the public all play an important role in this process. We need to strengthen cooperation and coordination in all aspects to form a joint force and jointly promote the development of Chinese football.
In short, Gao Hongbo's dismissal shows us the problems and challenges in Chinese football. We need to face up to these problems and take practical and effective measures to address them. Only in this way can we lay a solid foundation for the revitalization of Chinese football and let Chinese football go to the world stage.
