Chapter 364: Cooperation with Genbao Base

Originally, Charlotte wanted to loan Harry Kane out, but thinking that both Griezmann and Harry Kane could play on the wing and in the middle, they finally decided to keep them in the team.After all, in the new season they have the league, the Champions League, the FA Cup and the League Cup. Taking into account injuries, such staffing will not appear bloated.

The transfer window is closed, and the Southampton team is preparing to go to China for real joint training before the season. Now the training in Southampton is basically based on physical recovery training.

Southampton took a chartered flight from London to China. Since there is no direct flight to Chengdu, they have to go to Shanghai for a transfer.Originally, the club and business partners hoped that they would fly to Beijing and finally go to Chengdu after transferring from Hong Kong. In this way, they might stay in Hong Kong and Beijing for a few days for business activities.

This plan was directly rejected by Charlotte, because he knew that the effect of their pre-season training would be very limited, which would undoubtedly be fatal for the next season's game.

Originally, Charlotte wanted to fly directly from Shanghai to Chengdu, but a good friend in China told him that Xu Genbao, an older football coach who was engaged in youth training in Shanghai, wanted to meet him, so Charlotte arranged the work of the coaching staff and the club The person first flew to Chengdu on a domestic flight in China, and he chose to stay in Shanghai for a day.

He has already made arrangements for Chengdu. Sun Bin will personally receive the Southampton team, so Charlotte is not worried at all.

Since everyone knows that Southampton is only transiting in Shanghai, the players will go directly to the new flight through the internal transit channel, so Charlotte can leave the airport quickly without fans coming to pick up the airport at Pudong Airport in Shanghai.

The business car arranged by Xu Genbao was already waiting outside on the second floor, and Charlotte took the car to Xu Genbao's Chongming football base after leaving the airport.

In fact, Charlotte was inspired by Xu Genbao when she wanted to build a football training base. Many players who played for the national team and the top domestic leagues will come out of the Genbao football school. They will be the main force or core of major clubs .

So in Charlotte's view, it's not that the Chinese can't play well, but that they are affected by other external factors.So Xu Genbao can train so many outstanding talents. He Charlotte adopts more advanced concepts and the cooperation foundation of some European clubs. There is no reason to make the training base worse.

He never thought of saving Chinese football by himself, because this is not shown.He just wants to do his best to give them a good start, just like Xu Genbao, he can't save Chinese football, but he can lay a good foundation for Chinese football and set a good example.

This year, the Shanghai East Asia team based on the fundamental football school is already competing in the top domestic leagues. They have also received sponsorship from SIPG, and now they have changed their name to Shanghai SIPG Football Club.Although the club was separated, Xu Genbao did not end there. It is said that he intends to return to the Chongming base to continue training a new generation of players.

Now that he has cultivated Yan Junling, Zhang Linpeng, Jiang Zhipeng, Wu Lei, Cao Yunding, Cai Huikang, etc., who have already begun to have great reputations in China, potential young players and powerful players, then maybe in the next ten years, there may be a second one. Wu Lei and Zhang Linpeng may be stronger than the current two.

Charlotte met this old man in Xu Genbao's office in Genbao Football School in Chongming Island. Xu Genbao, who was almost 70 years old, had a little gray hair on his head, but his whole person seemed very energetic, with a The pair of discolored brown gold-rimmed glasses watched Charlotte walk in with a smile.

"Welcome, Mr. Xia!" Xu Genbao stretched out his hand.

Charlotte stretched out her hands and quickly stepped forward to hold Xu Lao's hand. She was full of respect for this down-to-earth old man who wanted to do football well.Even though many hostile clubs may target SIPG and their players in the future, anyone who understands will respect this old man.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be. Mr. Xu just call me Xiaoxia!"

"Hey, I don't do that here. It's the so-called learning without first priority, and those who have achieved first. In the field of football, you have already surpassed many head coaches, so you can still be a gentleman."

Xu Genbao asked Charlotte to do it, the secretary put the tea set on the table, and Mr. Xu started to play with the tea set: "I heard that you like drinking tea very much. You must know that there are not many young people who like tea culture. It happened that Gao Hongbo gave me a gift not long ago. Can this year's Mingqian Shifeng Longjing, please try it."

Charlotte made a joke: "So you just invited me to drink a few drinks, I thought you were going to give it to me!"

Xu Genbao was taken aback for a moment, and then he also laughed: "Taste it first, if you like it, you can pick it up when you leave, if you don't like it, I will go to the Lion Peak in Hangzhou West Lake early next year to pick it for you."

"Don't dare dare." Charlotte waved her hand quickly.

Charlotte and Xu Genbao have slightly different personalities, including coaching philosophy. As we all know, Mr. Xu has always led the team with strict requirements and high standards. He rarely plays and jokes with the players.He is more like an elder role, urging the players.And Charlotte's personality is more casual. He often jokes with the players and doesn't mind the players making fun of him.He is like a brother and friend to the players, growing up and improving with them.

So the styles of the two are different, but in the end their starting point and purpose are the same.

Mr. Xu asked Charlotte a lot about the situation of foreign teams, especially what is the most noteworthy thing after going abroad as a Chinese player.Of course, Xu Genbao has consulted many European giants on this point, but he would like to hear the views of a Chinese coach, Charlotte. After all, compared to other outsiders, Charlotte must see things clearly. many.

On the other hand, Charlotte asked Mr. Xu a lot of experience in building training bases and cultivating talents. Xu Genbao told Charlotte about this without any concealment. Chinese football will get better and better.

Counting the football powers abroad, which one is not today because of youth training?Not to mention the youth training in Spain, the German youth training reforms in the past few years have now seen results, and more and more outstanding German young people have sprung up like mushrooms after rain.

But in the end, Mr. Xu also joked: "These experiences are of little use to you. You must know that the biggest problem I faced at the beginning was money. At the beginning, I owed a whole lot of money. In order to raise funds , repaying the loan, even going to accompany people to drink, take photos, and even open the base as a tourist attraction to collect tickets. Naturally, you won’t be able to use these experiences, and you don’t need money.”

Xu Genbao doesn't know how many industries Charlotte has invested in, but anyone who understands can tell that the digital brand of St. Andrews has a lot to do with him. At the same time, he only made a lot of money from two gaming companies last season. .

Charlotte said that the two training bases simply form a partnership, and everyone can establish a platform for resource sharing and mutual communication.In the future, if the Genbao Base needs financial support, he can find a way to help them solve it.

Mr. Xu is naturally full of joy for this proposal. Although the current Genbao base is not very difficult to fund, he wants to expand the base, introduce some more advanced equipment and talents, and rebuild the base in two years. Put into the youth training that has been sharpened for ten years.

In the end, Mr. Xu took Charlotte to visit the entire training base. At the same time, he also met the current head coach of the club, Gao Hongbo, and many players.

The players in the training base naturally admire Charlotte. As the No.1 Chinese head coach who went to Europe to coach, he won the Premier League, the FA Cup and the Europa League at a young age. Although he is a The head coach, but still the idol in the hearts of many players.

For Charlotte, Gao Hongbo has mixed feelings in his heart.As one of the best representatives of local coaches at this stage, he can only coach in China now, and he also has a heart to coach abroad, but he knows his ability.
The two parties have reached a verbal agreement on cooperation, so Charlotte invites the other party to come to Chengdu to visit Charlotte's training base next month and give some opinions or suggestions.At the same time, Charlotte also said that his coaches are currently undergoing short-term training in Germany, and hope that after the training is completed, the Chinese coaches will be able to practice at the Genbao training base for several months.

Charlotte rested in Shanghai for one night, and then flew to Chengdu from Hongqiao Airport the next day.On the day he stayed in Shanghai, no media knew the news. After he himself had arrived in Chengdu, the Shanghai Genbao Training Base and SIPG officially released the news.

"Yesterday, Mr. Charlotte, the famous Chinese head coach, the coach of the Premier League champion and Europa League champion, and the current head coach of the Premier League club Southampton, visited our team and gave valuable advice."

At this time, the Chinese sports media reporters realized the deep resentment towards Charlotte from the European media colleagues, because this girl never played cards according to common sense.No wonder I didn't see Charlotte when I picked him up at Chengdu Airport yesterday. Southampton's assistant coach also said that he was delayed for a day because of some personal matters, but he didn't expect this guy to go to the base of Chongming Island for a "one-day tour" ".
Yu Hang, a well-known sports media person who has a good relationship with Charlotte and is now the editor-in-chief of Sina Sports, "strongly condemned" on Weibo: "Would it be difficult for us media people to be so elusive like you? It is simply the worst in history." A star who is difficult to be followed by paparazzi." And he tweeted Charlotte's Weibo, and then gave a tearful emoji covering his face.

Below, Lu Yang, the vice president and deputy editor-in-chief of Sina Sports, and Li Dan, a front-line reporter from Sina, responded with a like, and then many domestic sports no one liked it one after another. In the end, even commentators such as Zhan Jun and Huang Jianxiang all commented Come and join in the fun.
