'I'm very eager to score goals and to be able to help the team win is my biggest wish.' ——Chen Tao
If Chinese football also has "genius", there may be people who oppose it, or disagree. But it is not about the present, but about the "history" of Chinese football in the past. Not to mention the too distant Li Huitang, Gu Guangming, Jia Xiuquan, nor to mention the wave of Sun Jihai and Zhang Xiaorui, just to say that the former "85 golden generation" has a number of players who are very strong. For example, Dong Fangzhuo and Chen Tao, perhaps the fans did not think how good they were at that time, but now look at the active players, they will obey!

Dong Fangzhuo was born in Dalian in 1985, and in 2004, at the age of 19, he was favored by Manchester United for his outstanding personal ability and football talent, and joined the Red Devils for a record value of 3.5 million pounds of Chinese players that year. In the 2005-06 Belgian Football League, Dong Fangzhuo scored 18 goals and won the top scorer in the regular season of the Second League, which is also the first time that a Chinese player has won the Golden Boot in the European League. In the 2008 Olympic Games, Dong Fangzhuo scored the first goal in Olympic history.
Chen Tao, who was also born in 1985, is not from Dalian, but from Anshan, Liaoning Province. As one of the leaders and representatives of the golden generation of the former National Olympic 85, Chen Tao has a precise free kick kung fu, dribbling and passing and receiving skills, strong breakthrough ability at the peak, outstanding sense of front insertion, and can be called the best "midfield artist" in China. Chen Tao has played for Shenyang Jinde, Shanghai Shenhua, Tianjin Teda Dalian Albin and Sichuan Annapurna.
On May 29, 2020, Chen Tao officially announced his retirement. On January 9, 2021, Dong Fangzhuo and Chen Tao had a video connection and a conversation, in which he asked Chen Tao on behalf of some Chinese fans: "By the way, didn't you still have any other teams at that time, and also invited you?" Why didn't you come out? Dong Fangzhuo's "coming out" means "going abroad" and "staying in the ocean". Chen Tao smiled and replied, "It's hard to say a word!" Let's not mention which pot does not open which pot! Finally mention that I am..."
Chen Tao did not find a suitable word for a while, Dong Fangzhuo took over the stubble, and resolved Chen Tao's small embarrassment: "I also asked on behalf of the fans, right, everyone cares about you!" Chen Tao smiled, during the national Olympic team, Chen Tao was once called a "smile killer" by foreign media, but at this time, his laughter, there was a hint of bitterness, Chen Tao said to Dong Fangzhuo: "I am full of tears!" But I still want to laugh. Dong Fangzhuo said frankly: "We can understand." ”
Chen Tao went on to say, "No way, really, to be honest, it was really (it was impossible to play abroad), and the football environment (at that time) was like this. Even if we may not have reached a high height, many people may be more capable than us before. "Of course, Chen Tao was modest, as he was one of the Chinese players who had been delayed by domestic clubs.
