One sheep is driven, two sheep are herded.

Faced with Wang Junsheng's tough attitude, Zeng Zheng had no choice but to shoulder the responsibility of the National Youth and Olympic Games.

At the end of January, Zeng Zheng brought 22 Olympic team members to Ho Chi Minh City to participate in the second Dunhill Cup.

The opponents are all here to train, there are no strong enemies.

Except for a 2-2 draw with South Korea U22 in the finals during regular time, there were not many twists and turns during this trip to Vietnam.

Thanks to Zhang Yuheng's goal in overtime, Zeng Zheng finally returned to China with a winning bonus of 100,000 US dollars and a fair play award.

Since the Chinese team was the champion of the first Dunhill Cup, such a cup competition can no longer satisfy the sophisticated appetite of fans.

After learning that he had returned from the Olympics victorious, the fans simply nodded.

In order to make way for the World Youth Championship, this year’s Class A and B started as early as early March.

During the period when Zeng Zheng led the team to spring training, the Jianglong team's active preparations for building a home field received strong support from all walks of life in Harbin.

As soon as Zeng Zheng and others left, nearly 2,000 people from all walks of life in Harbin City spontaneously came to the Provincial People's Stadium to participate in voluntary labor in building the turf.

Especially when they saw the big trucks pulling the green turf into the field, the citizens at the scene were filled with joy from the bottom of their hearts.

It is precisely because of the generous support from so many people from all walks of life that when Zeng Zheng led the team back to Harbin, everything from the dormitory to the home court was completely new.

"Mr. Zeng, this is 365 yuan donated to Jianglong Football Club by 138 primary school students in the city. This is the sixteenth donation the club has received so far."

"The dormitory at Harbin Institute of Physical Education has also been renovated. Now that dormitory building is fully used for the accommodation of our players, with one dormitory for each player."

"The cafeteria also hired a few more chefs, saying they would prepare nutritious meals for our team members. I insisted on paying, and they finally promised to only charge the purchase price."

"For our first game against Songri, the tickets were sold out as soon as they were sold. Students from Harbin were the main force watching the game."

"Harbin TV has agreed to broadcast our game live!"

As the day of the first battle between A and B approaches, pieces of good news are also coming.

What worries Zeng Zheng the most is the broadcasting rights.

Starting from this season, the TV station will no longer have the exclusive broadcast of Class A games.

In addition to broadcasting stations, educational channels and other local stations can also join the competition for broadcasts.

Since Zeng Zheng is the "frontier pilot" of Bamboo Shoes' reform, he does not have to pay a varying amount of broadcast fees to Bamboo Shoes like other clubs.

Of course, this is also related to Harbin’s underdeveloped economy.

For example, the broadcast fee for Wuhan Yaqi last year was 120W, and the broadcast fees for Beijing and Shanghai were mostly between 100W and 200W.

For Zeng Zheng, the meat of fly legs is also meat, so save it if you can.

According to Zhu Xie’s suggestion, the national live broadcast fee for a game is about 50W.

Calculated in this way, there were a total of 182 games in the A-A season in 1999, 26 of which were broadcast nationally, and the total number should be 13 million.

The remaining 56 games, due to varying levels of competition, will be broadcast live by local stations, and the average broadcast fee may remain around 25W per game.

A is like this, and A B, which has a slightly lower level, is only relatively low.

Jianglong played a total of 24 games this season, and Zeng Zheng sold a total of 450W, averaging 18.75W per game.

This figure is something that Guang Zengzheng cannot afford, and it is all thanks to the full support of some local companies.

Because according to the price suggested by Bamboo Shoes, even installing a cushioned table is a bit unaffordable, let alone a local table.

You know, television broadcast revenue can account for a quarter or even a third of a club's revenue.

The TV station's income has been sold at a higher price, so no matter how much it loses this season, it won't be much of a loss.

Of course, the two parties only signed a one-year contract.

After Zeng Zheng came up with 10,000 exchange points, the Provincial Stadium was already replaced with a shotgun.

The stadium is covered with green artificial grass, and the cement piles in the stands have been replaced with rows of folding plastic seats.

Although these seats cannot be warm in winter or cool in summer, as long as you put a small cushion on them, adults don't have to worry about their children pulling out their buttocks, which is a very big improvement.

After this rectification, the Provincial Stadium was expanded by Zeng Zheng to accommodate 100,000 seats.

There are currently no package tickets for sale. The best main stand seats are covered, so they cost 70 yuan each.

Except for the main grandstand, tickets A and B are priced relatively cheaply, at 20 and 10 yuan respectively, which can be afforded by working-class families.

Not only that, students can also enjoy a half-price discount after showing their student ID.

From an overall strategy point of view, Zeng Zheng still feels that the student fans should be "caught first" first.

This seat alone has already brought 200,000 revenue to the team.

Of course, this is the first game after all, and the fans are giving it back.

If you want to continue to earn so much in the future, winning is the most important thing!

The investment in the stadium allows fans to see the team's determination to win;

The ubiquitous cheers and cheers also allowed the players to see the enthusiasm of the fans.

After returning from spring training, the Jianglong team played three friendly matches with local reporters, students and workers in Harbin, and achieved great victories in each of them.

Seeing that the first round of League One and League B was about to begin, Harbin's local daily life newspaper couldn't wait to print such a strong news headline: "Next year Harbin will have a team competing in the highest level league in the country!"

It’s easy to have such confidence.

"Life Daily" does not analyze and discuss from the aspects of signings, talent reserves, capital investment, etc. like other media.

Looking at the other 12 teams in League B, Jingcheng Kuanli is a northern club, and all other teams’ home stadiums are in the south!

In other words, the away opponents that the Jianglong team encountered at the beginning and end of the year were solely there to give away points!

...

March 03, HLJ Provincial Stadium.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Langer's exit did not extinguish the passion of Harbin fans, but instead made the fans here stronger.

In the Jianglong team's first A-B game of the new season, the stadium attendance rate reached 100%!

Harbin has not completely thawed in March, but the enthusiastic Harbin fans can no longer contain themselves, and cheers can be heard from the stands.

This battle left the Guangzhou players, who were already shivering with cold, at a loss.

"Isn't this too cheating? Playing outside in such a cold weather?"

"Don't talk about playing games, I'm freezing to death!"

"The Jianglong team is really brave. They chose Harbin as their home court. They plan to drag all the A and B teams to death together!"

"But don't tell me, their turf isn't too hard! It's much better than our club's!"

"Such a good turf is used in Harbin, tsk tsk tsk, it's a waste!"

Despite the cold weather, Harbin has been warming up in the past few days, with the highest temperature even reaching one degree above zero.

Even so, in this weather where the average temperature is below zero, these players from the south simply cannot afford it!

Although I have confidence in the players.

But in the locker room, Zeng Zheng couldn't help but give some instructions to the players.

"Hongyuan is very strong and is a strong opponent for us to reach A this season."

"Their advantages are that their players are fast, skilled with their feet, and have strong individual breakthrough capabilities."

"Especially No. 6 Zhang Yuewen, who poses a great threat when dribbling the ball in the frontcourt."

"In addition, the impact of their two foreign aids Ivansa and Carlos in the frontcourt cannot be ignored. Those behind you must be careful."

"We have been training here for so many days."

"I have always said that the temperature and home court are the keys to our victory!"

"They have come a long way, and it's so cold here. They must be anxious if they can't attack for a long time."

"Let's play steadily after the opening. As long as we stabilize the situation, we will definitely win. Do you understand?"

The team members nodded in unison.

"Also, don't be nervous!"

"Did you hear it? There are fans cheering outside!"

"This is our home court, and the fans support us!"

"Let them see what it means to have a dragon crossing the river!"

...

In this game, the goalkeeper Zeng Zheng sent was Chen Dong, who was rented from Wanda. He was also the goalkeeper selected by Zeng Zheng for the National Olympics.

The four defenders are Zheng Zhi, Li Weifeng, Tao Wei, and Ma Yongkang.

Li Tie and Yao Li play as a defensive midfielder, and Li Jinyu and Zhang Xiaorui play as a front midfielder.

The forward line is composed of Sun Zhi and Deco.
