Chapter 32 System Rewards The Chinese national youth team's historic victory in the World Youth Championship has had a huge and far-reaching impact on Chinese football. The Chinese people's passion for football was greatly ignited, and the negative impact brought about by the failure to qualify for the World Cup disappeared under the stimulation of the national youth team winning the championship. Football has gone from being a topic that people avoided and refused to talk about to a topic that people talk about on the streets and after dinner. Regardless of whether you used to watch football or not, you now know that China has a team that has won a world-class championship. Affected by this, the originally sluggish football market quickly became hot at a speed visible to the naked eye. The number of people participating in football has also increased significantly. Not only is the stadium extremely lively, but even in the streets and alleys, you can see groups of children chasing footballs. The success of the U20 National Youth Team has greatly increased people's attention to youth football, and the financial allocations and policy support for youth teams at all levels have increased significantly. Among the people, parents are no longer so opposed to their children playing football. As long as it doesn't affect their academic performance, let them do whatever they want.
If he manages to become famous, he might even be able to join a professional team and make a living as a football player. In this era, football players’ salaries are much higher than ordinary people! As a result, this profession, which was once looked down upon by many parents, has suddenly become high-end. A strong youth means a strong country. With so many young people devoting themselves to football, why should we worry about the failure of this great cause? On the contrary, if even young people stop playing football, then there will naturally be no hope for Chinese football. In addition, the biggest impact of the National Youth Team’s victory is the policy changes at the top level of the government. After the Chinese National Youth Team won the championship, senior government officials first proposed the idea of developing the football industry and provided greater policy support. Football is the world's largest sport and the best commercial sport. Playing football not only strengthens the body, but also brings huge economic benefits and even enhances national pride and self-confidence. In the past, the reason why the top leaders did not attach importance to football was because Chinese football was weak, difficult to achieve results, could not win medals, and could not bring political achievements. But the unexpected victory of the national youth team gave the top leaders hope for Chinese football to achieve results. Three years later, China will host the Olympic Games on its home soil for the first time. If this national youth team can win the Olympic championship on home soil, the value of this gold medal will probably far exceed other gold medals. For the relevant persons in charge, this is a real political achievement. With hope comes the motivation to move forward. In the past, no one wanted to touch football because they couldn't gain any advantage and it was easy to get into trouble. But the situation is different now! As a result, various support policies followed one after another. …… Of course, the national youth team far away in Europe are unaware of these changes in domestic football. After the World Youth Championship, the Chinese national youth team did not stay in the Netherlands for long.
Including head coach Krauchen, everyone took a chartered flight back home overnight. When they arrived at the Capital International Airport, the arrival hall was already packed with people. Countless fans waited at the airport early to welcome the triumphant return of the national youth team players. This made the young players of the national youth team flattered, and some of them were even frightened. When have they ever seen such a scene? The number of fans who rushed to the scene must be tens of thousands, right? Even if you are a popular star, it’s probably just like this, right? "Am I dreaming? Are these people really here to greet us? Could it be that there are some celebrities on our plane?" "Where did this celebrity come from? We chartered a plane and there was no one else on the plane!" Chen Tao was also a little frightened by this scene. Although he was also sought after by many fans when he played football in the club, compared with the fans here, it was nothing. "Brother Chen, have we become big stars?" "We are not singers or dancers, so how can we be stars? We should say we have become football stars!" Gao Lin puffed out his chest in a somewhat showy manner, and waved to a group of female fans on the inside, trying hard to play the role of a "star". But he didn't act like one at all, which caused his teammates to laugh at him: "Don't stick a green onion in your pig's nose - you're just pretending to be an elephant. You're not cut out for it!" "That's right. Didn't you see that the signs held by those female fans had Lin's name on them? They weren't coming for you at all!" "What a pity that Brother Lin is not here. If Brother Lin were here, he could at least help us attract a lot of firepower!" This statement drew unanimous agreement from the other team members, and a large number of the fans at the scene came for Lin Feng. This guy is not only good at playing football, but also handsome. Compared with him, others feel like bumpkins and wish they could dig a place to bury themselves. But unfortunately, Lin Feng did not return to China with the national youth team and was unable to see this spectacular scene. The fans who came to the airport to pick him up searched for a long time but didn't see Lin Feng. They were a little disappointed and could only settle for the next best thing and ask Chen Tao, Feng Xiaoting, Zhou Haibin, Hao Junmin and others for autographs. Several people were very surprised. Someone actually asked me for an autograph? So they patiently signed autographs and took photos with the fans, until more and more fans gathered and the security personnel on the scene had to intervene. …… Just as his teammates were taking a chartered plane back to China, Lin Feng also packed up and prepared to leave. After being away for half a month, he came back empty-handed, but when he left, he not only brought two trophies, but also a bonus of 21 yuan from the Football Association. After the National Youth Team won the championship, the leaders of the Football Association fulfilled their promise and distributed a 300 million championship bonus to the players on the spot. As the main force, Lin Feng won the first prize of 20 yuan. Including the 1 yuan he got for defeating Argentina, he won a total of 21 yuan in prize money. Although the money was not much, it was an unexpected little surprise for him. Before being recruited by Krauchen, he never thought that he could get paid by playing for the national team. After all, it is the players' obligation to play for the national team and they do not receive any salary. However, apart from this gain, what Lin Feng cares most about is the gain after completing the World Youth Championship mission issued by the system. [Congratulations to the host for completing the World Youth Championship mission! ]
[Personal evaluation: S! ] [Task Reward: Second Module Development Progress +30%, One Chance to Draw Module Fragments! ] I opened the system with my mind and at a glance I saw that the unopened second module was much brighter than before. Including the previous 10%, the development progress of the second module has reached 40%, and it is still a long way from being fully unlocked. This thing doesn't seem to be able to be improved by completing competitions, and it is currently unclear whether there is any other way to speed up its development progress besides completing system tasks. Lin Feng put him aside for the moment and focused on the development of the Kaka module he was currently using. Lin Feng participated in a total of four games in this World Youth Championship. Except for the game against Germany where he was a substitute, he started in the remaining three games. After playing against Germany, the system's module development progress increased by 1%. Combined with the system's task rewards, the development progress of his Kaka template reached 80%. Now, after three more national team games, the development progress of his Kaka template in the system has reached 83%. "It really is one point of progress per game. This efficiency is much higher than the league." The reason why many people feel that Lin Feng is better in every game than the previous one is actually not an illusion. Because after every game, he can get closer to peak Kaka, and his strength naturally becomes stronger. If it were just an ordinary player, this improvement might not be so obvious. But for a BUG-level existence like Peak Kaka, even a 1% improvement is a huge change. It’s a pity that the World Youth Championship schedule is too short, which doesn’t give him more opportunities to score points. The National Youth Team will not have any major competitions to play in for a long time in the future, so the idea of using the National Youth Team's platform to improve progress is probably not going to work. "Oh, it would be great if there were still national team matches! Then I can continue to score points!" "Now that things have come to this, let's draw the lottery first!" (End of this chapter)
