Chapter 152: Shanghai Fantasy
At this moment, Wu Hao heard Zhinao mention a ten-year timeline. Although he felt it was a bit long, he decided to listen to its detailed plan first. After all, Zhinao’s computational abilities far surpassed his own.
At the same time, Zhinao had reviewed the development history of world football and the systematic development and training methods used in European and American countries. It then came up with a development plan tailored to their country’s specific situation.
“Okay, tell me, where should I start if I want to develop football?” Wu Hao asked.
“BOSS, the first thing you need to do is acquire a domestic football club that qualifies for the Super League. Then, transform this club into a ‘phenomenon-level’ club, also known as a ‘giant.'”
“The conditions for becoming a ‘giant’ club include the following key points. First, there must be sufficient financial support. Second, the club must have its own stadium and training facilities. Third, there must be youth training academies at various levels. Fourth, you need close cooperation with major European clubs to ensure that your players can go to European clubs for matches. Only through continuous player exchanges can you truly become a ‘giant.’ Of course, you must also ensure that your connections with domestic government officials are strong enough to prevent interference that could hinder the club’s development.”
“As long as your club meets these conditions, it will drive the development of the other clubs in the country. This is the only way to truly develop domestic football. After all, your personal abilities are limited; you can’t support the entire development of football in the country alone. Your role is to create a ‘phenomenon-level’ club.”
Hearing this, Wu Hao vaguely understood. He knew that a ‘phenomenon-level’ club was world-class, with enough influence to amaze people worldwide.
“Your plan is good, and it aligns with my own ideas. So, among the dozen or so domestic clubs qualified for the Super League, which one do you think I should acquire?” Wu Hao continued to ask.
