Qingdao's return to the Chinese Super League makes up for the Chinese Super League soccer city's map
One year, Chengju, two years, Chengyi, three years, Chengdu.
Don't get me wrong I'm not talking about Chengdu, but how hard it is for a city to be born and grow. He needs the hardships of his ancestors, he needs the wages of his descendants. He may have enjoyed fires burning oil and flowers blooming, and he needs to endure the neglect of no one.
Then we call it urban history.
As for soccer, even though the history looks so bad, there is still history and heritage, such as Dalian, Qingdao, Meizhou, Yanbian, etc.
Nine years later, Qingdao Hainiu finally returned to the Chinese Super League - so on the map of the Chinese Super League, the soccer city Qingdao is back.
Nine years. Do you know how they spent those nine years?
For 30 years, the flame has not been extinguished and the flag has not fallen
In 2013, it was relegated from the Super League.
Relegated from the Central League in 2016.
The road ahead is vast and stormy - from the Super League down to the B, leaving only one step away from dropping the word "professional", and at the same time, under the impact of the Golden Dollar Football, people are more skeptical of relying on the Zhongneng Group alone, can still be supported.
Furthermore, what are the reasons for supporting it?
At the same time, Qingdao Yellow Sea team also appeared in the same city, they rushed to the Chinese Super League - Chinese Super League, Chinese Super League B, resources, attention, attention to which team, it is self-evident.
There's no point in dropping the Super League to the Central League, the Central League to the Central League B, and on and on.
At this point, the familiar story would be that the team either transfers off-site or disbands in place. If the departing players don't have IOUs for unpaid wages in their arms, even if the owner has a conscience.
Since 2004 to take over Qingdao soccer Zhongneng Group, has been to the crossroads, let go, two wide, their own destiny, is a way; bite the bullet, dormant is also a way.
Qiao Weiguang, the owner of Zhongneng, chose the latter.
On January 21st, 2021, Qingdao Jonoon Football Club passed the examination of the neutral name evaluation team of CFA, and completed the change in the industry and commerce department, officially restoring the club name "Qingdao Hainiu Football Club".
Qingdao Hainiu was founded in 1993, and the name "Hainiu" will be restored in 2021 - nearly 30 years, the head of the city has turned into a king's flag, the demise of the professional team one after another, just like the carp that crosses the river. However, in the past 30 years, the flag is still standing, but in Chinese soccer there are very few:
Beijing Guoan, Shanghai Shenhua, Henan Jianye, Shandong Luneng ......
Qingdao Hainiu went through a few ups and downs compared to the teams mentioned above, but they are finally back in the Premier League. It's really hard to tell:
How many pedestrians were in tears in the middle of the clear river water under Yugutai?
Qingdao is a city with a developed manufacturing industry. Enterprises such as Hisense, Haier and Tsingtao Beer are famous in the country. To realize the manufacturing industry, you need craftsmanship. If you think of soccer as a product, why don't you need a spirit of craftsmanship when your product has hit a low point and looks like it has a bleak future?
Over the past 30 years, there have been ups and downs, but the fires are not extinguished and the flags do not fall - isn't that the city's soccer heritage?
Henan Jianye, in the past 30 years, has also been relegated to the Central League and to the Central B;
Guangzhou soccer, experienced a long ten-year sub-league ice age from 1998-2008;
Another soccer city, Dalian, is brilliant, lost, and can't even come back with the eight championship trophies that once belonged to it;
Qingdao soccer is no different.
Old masters and veterans create brilliance together
Now Qingdao Sea Cow, there are many old players.
Jiangning.
At the beginning of 2011, Guangzhou Evergrande winter training, I went to interview Jiang Ning, who just transferred to Evergrande.
Jiang Ning said, "Injured for so long, Li guidance (Li Zhangzhu) still think about me, buy me just fine."
The transfer to Guangzhou Evergrande was a key step for Jiangning. Since then, he has followed Evergrande to the Chinese Super League title, but he still thinks of Qingdao anyway: "Wherever you go, you feel at home."
Zheng Long.
Zheng Long was the last big name player to leave Qingdao Zhongneng. At Evergrande, he won the Chinese Super League and the Asian Championship, and became the only Chinese player to score in the Club World Cup. He left Evergrande to join Dalian and eventually returned to Qingdao.
No matter how far you go, your hometown retreat's.
I'm going back to the "countryside".
Sometimes we think that some words are ethereal, such as history or heritage, and difficult to understand, but in reality they are very clear when they are applied to someone or something:.
If Qingdao had no soccer, no tradition and no professional team, I'm afraid Qingdao players like Jiang Ning and Zheng Long would have chosen to retire after hanging out, but now they can still shine for Qingdao Hainiu.
As for Yin Tiesheng, he began coaching Shandong Taishan "iron egg" from the first year of the A a, from the young manager into the old manager, but the first year of coaching the teams of the gods, nearly 30 years later, still coaching the first team, only the iron egg a person.
Nowadays, Qingdao Hainiu not only has coaches and veterans, but also young players. 21-year-old Xie Wenneng has started to contribute as a striker, while Sun Xu has become a mainstay of the defense.
For Qingdao Hainiu, returning to the Chinese Super League and bringing Qingdao Football City back to the Chinese Super League map is naturally a cause for celebration, and even more cherished is.
How this team, which has been on the retreat from the onslaught of gold dollar soccer, has not given up, has not given in, and has made incremental progress with Xu Tu, and has finally reached its goal.
Isn't the story here something to ponder?
