The year 2002, praised by Milu as a "football prodigy", was a landmark year for China football. China entered the World Cup for the first time, which was a memorable event for all fans.
Therefore, no matter how time passes, those memories engraved in the blood of the national football team will not be forgotten. At that time, there was another person who could be written into the history of football in China, spread all over the streets of China, and became a household hero, and that was the national football coach Milu.
Under his leadership, the changes of the national football team have been turned upside down and the future is full of hope. At that time, a 6-year-old child also attracted people's attention at the national football award ceremony, and was praised as a football prodigy by Milu.
Zhou Zhou's story is like a modern version of "Upper Zhong Yong". The child's name is Zhou Zhou. He is a football genius. He was born in Beijing, but he didn't come from a sports family. Influenced by his parents, Zhou likes football very much. Later, his family found out that he was gifted, so they wanted to focus on cultivating his interest in football. Later, Zhou's skills became better and better, and his fame gradually increased. Many domestic media began to report him. After understanding, coach Milu also came to the conclusion that he will be the successor of China football in the future. With the praise of coach Milu, people have higher expectations for him, but the fact is that he is not a member of the national football team.
Zhou's story is like a modern version of "Shang". Although he has a very good talent for football, it is in vain not to work hard the day after tomorrow. In those days, under the reports of major media, Zhou Zhou was under great pressure, as if he was a sinner if he couldn't make the national team. The biggest horse is common, but Bole is not. Is there no football genius in China with a population of over one billion?
The answer I gave is that there are many football geniuses, but more families are reluctant to let their children enter the sports world. If they haven't waited for the invitation of the national team after years of training, the result will be devastating. In the following week, I just regarded football as a hobby and didn't have any special training.
Being labeled as a "child prodigy" does not take a week to praise teenagers for their children, as if they had exhausted their "special functions" in childhood. Because of their new weight, their talents are no longer outstanding and gradually disappear from public view. Pulling out the seedlings to encourage it did not make it grow into what people expected, but it brought more trauma to the child's mind. From the beginning, he went in the wrong direction under the wrong guidance. If football is still his hobby, spend more time cultivating what he really likes.
18 years later, today may be another scene. Being labeled as a "child prodigy" is not a praise for children, but a kind of pressure, which comes from all directions and concerns from all walks of life. If you are not careful, you will be called a "prodigy".
Why are you a child prodigy? Who is the real child prodigy? Everyone has his own characteristics and talents. Children with this talent should grow up under good protection, let them grow up freely, and attack the top he wants to reach with a barbaric attitude. Instead of working hard in the established direction under the shadow of what others should develop into. That is the extinction of talent and unfair to children.
The present situation of Zhou in 2007 reappeared a week before the end, and it has become a big fat man with a height of one meter and a weight of one or two hundred Jin. My father hopes that he can continue to develop in the field of football and help him lose weight, but no one will ever associate Zhou with the former "football prodigy".
Now 24-year-old Zhou has not become a professional player, let alone lead China's football team to the World Cup. There have been countless examples, including Zhou, that talent is very important, but it is more important to calm down and train and improve. Without this effort, there would be no Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, just like there would be no Kobe Bryant without training at 4: 30 in the morning day after day. The road to the rise of sports superstars is not easy.
