Captain Shen Jiahao plays as a winger on the pitch. Typically, he is mainly responsible for the company's product marketing and project implementation in Jiangsu. He is a typical representative of both positions in the team. According to Shen Jiahao, the captain posts training times in the WeChat group every Monday, and then he'll do his best to get his work done in the limited time he has outside of training and maintain a balance between work and soccer. "The company fully understands our players so that we can have time after work to pursue our soccer dreams. Several of our company players have never played in the FA Cup. This is the first time we have represented the team in this top help cup
All the preparations to make an impact on the pro league, the head coach is already at the pro level
The Shanghai Changning Mitsubishi Heavy Industries team has completed its staffing for the new season before competing in the FA Cup qualifiers in January. In January, Zhu Jianmin officially became the team's head coach. In addition, the team also completed the first batch of trial training for new players for the new season and completed the first preparation for the year in Shanghai.
"All of our preparation is toward professional soccer. Our goal is to influence the professional league." Zhu Jianmin was selected for Shanghai Shenhua's first team as a player and played with Shanghai Shenxin in the Chinese Super League and China First Division. After retiring and transitioning into coaching, Zhu Jianmin worked on the coaching staffs of the U-16 men's national soccer team and the U-23 China Women's Elite Soccer Camp. Currently, he holds an AFC Professional Coaching Certificate. He is not only one of the forces of young coaches in China, but also a rare coach holding a professional coaching certificate in Chinese amateur soccer clubs.
The FA Cup qualifier is the first challenge for Zhu Jianmin to command the team after taking over. "In addition to qualifying for the FA Cup Qualifier, it is more important to grind the player lineup and coaching lineup through this game, especially the technical and tactical cooperation. For now, our basic goal seems to have been achieved. For Zhu Jianmin and Shanghai Changning Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, this FA Cup qualifying tournament is an important training opportunity for their impact on the professional league this year. There is a rest day between each of the two qualifying matches, but the Shanghai Changning Mitsubishi Heavy Industries team still schedules training sessions on this day. In addition, the club has arranged two massage therapists for the team to help the players better complete their post-match recovery. The club even invites the team doctor who has worked in the national team for a long time to help the team members to carry out scientific treatment and rehabilitation, providing the most professional medical technology power for the team's healthy development; in terms of tactical analysis, the coaching team is equipped with an English Super Data Analyzer; usually, the team will arrange three training sessions and two gym strength training sessions every week, and one warm-up match will be arranged on the weekend. Before the game, the team will travel to other places for closed training.
Professional coaches strategize and escort professional logistics. Everything indicates that the team is fully preparing for the impact of the professional league. Team leader Ma Yue said, "The club is doing its best to provide logistical support for the team, develop a scientific plan, maintain a high level of training, and hope to achieve excellent results with everyone's efforts."
"We are a team with Shanghai elements."
In addition to preparing everything according to professional standards, Shanghai regional elements are also one of the highlights of this team that cannot be ignored. Currently, more than half of the players of Shanghai Changning Mitsubishi Heavy Industry Team are from Shanghai. Many players will communicate in Shanghai dialect while playing on the court. During breaks in the game, they will get together to watch flowers.
Club president Zhang Ziqin said, "We are a team with rich Shanghai elements, and we are not shy about people saying that about us because soccer itself is a sport full of regional colors, and many of the players on our team are Shenhua fans. We grew up watching Shenhua football." .
Li Hao Wen is a special presence in the Shanghai Changning Mitsubishi Heavy Industries' squad among the many teammates of Shenhua fans. 30-year-old Li Hao Wen learned to play as a child at the Genbao base, and in 2009 he won the Liaoning Provincial National Games title with the Shanghai team. After becoming a professional player, he played for Shanghai Harbor and Suzhou Dongwu. Early last year, Li Hao Wen officially joined Shanghai Changning Mitsubishi Heavy Industries. He came from the China First Division to the China Champions League. In addition to being optimistic about the club's future, more importantly, as a Shanghai local, he can finally play soccer for his hometown team again.
"The feeling of the club and the idea of building a team appealed to me. I had been playing soccer elsewhere a few years ago, but wandering around is definitely not as good as wandering around at home. I feel at home here. In addition, the team has been moving in a professional direction. If I can follow my hometown team step by step from the amateur league to the professional team, it will be a special experience for me." Li Hao Wen said.
If Shanghai Shenhua is the emotional home team of Shanghai Changning Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, then Japanese J1 League club Urawa Red Diamonds is the club's key learning object. It is understood that Shanghai Changning Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Club and Japanese J1 League club Urawa Red Diamonds belong to the same group of clubs. They often keep in touch with the soccer and have sent people to Japan many times to study and exchange. Currently, the club has introduced a relevant Japanese team to assist in youth training and operations. In the future, the team plans to form a B-team in Japan to bring fresh blood to the first team.
"From a practical point of view, it is feasible to rely on corporate power to influence the professional league, but if we want to enter a higher level league in the future, we must have the support of the government and social forces." Club chairman Zhang Ziqin said, "We should make all the preparations at an early stage and hope that on the day we enter the professional league, we are not a club with only one first team."
